Stay

Chapter Two

A/N: Joslyns in the picture now :P 

After lunch the rest of the school day went by quickly. Me and Kayla talked somewhat throughout the last three periods.

 Today was a Friday, why they had the first day of school on a Friday I will never know, so me and her planned on going to a local party and then I would be staying at her house. 

Once I heard the bell dismissing us several students stood up and ran out of the room nearly knocking each other over while I decided to take my time and gather my things together. 

I slowly dragged myself out of the classrooom giving my teacher a friendly smile and making my way to my locker. 

Half the students were gone already so the hall ways were pretty deserted. I heard a slight muffle sounding like a cry come from the janitors closet as I walked by. I heard muffling and I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. 

I stared at the door handle decided rather or not to open it. Every hair on my body was standing up as I opened the door slowly. 

The closet contained that girl Kayla and some boy that I had known as Jayze. He had an angry expression and beads of seat on his forehead. 

 He leaned close and whispered something harshly to her before walking away shoving my shoulder almost knocking me down. 

I looked back at Kayla to see her eye was swelled and she had tears in her eyes however her eyes held a deep rage inside of her and I could tell she was crying from anger, not the pain. 

I starred at her and for some reason seeing her in this state mad me angry as well but also made it feel like my heart broke a little. 

I stood in shock and finally stuttered out a weak ¨Are you okay?¨ She looked at me and shook her head no and then ran out running down the hall and out of the school building. 

I furrowed my eye brows in confusion and bit my bottom lip, a habit I had, concerned. 

I slowly closed the door to the closet and walked to my locker putting away my things and grabbing my two favorite notebooks whilst slipping them into my book bag still worried about Kayla. 

Did he do something to her?  

It was slightly obvious that he had hit her and the thought of it made me even more mad. I sat with my back against my locker scared and confused...Scared because I couldnt understand why her getting hurt mad me so mad and confused because why would he want to hurt her in the first place? 

I groaned and stood up slipping my book bag back on and skipping outside. I turned left down the side walk deciding to take the long walk home to give myself some more time to think. 

I had my headphones in and currently the song ¨Gold¨ by sleeping with sirens was blaring in my ears and it took everything inside me to not sing the lyrics aloud. 

After about a good 20-30 minutes of walking I made it to my house and went inside. After all that time and I still didnt have a good theory. Hm. 

I stubbornly walked into the kitchen upset that I was still on the topic and grabbed a bowl and the Ice Cream out of the freezer. 

After I was done getting my snack I skipped upstairs to my room. 

I lived in this house alone seeing as my parents passed away 2 years ago and I was an only child. 

I am however 16 but through some legal stuff I worked it out in order to still go to the same school and the college I planned on which is only 40 minute drive from this house. 

I missed my parents more and more everyday and the house never forgets to remind me how big and lonely it is however I get by. 

I opened up my bedroom door and was greeted by a light blue shade of walls and my bed was sitting in the middle of the room to which Christmas lights were wrapped all around the frame of the mattress. 

I sighed heavily as I slipped the bag of my shoulder and laid down letting the smell of my room take me in causing me to relax. I sat up and checked the time

4:15

The party starts at 7:30 and Joslyn will be here at 7 to make sure I look okay and help with my hair.

 I laid back down and starred at my ceiling, letting the peacefulness and quietness of the house take over leaving me to drown in my thoughts. 

Apparently I had gotten to comfortable because I fell asleep. I woke up at 6:32 and decided it would be a good time to try and find an outfit.

 I lazily got off my bed rubbing my eyes as I stumbled over to my closet. I opened the door and suddenly got overwhelmed. 

This is going to take a while...
