Masks

Chapter 4

I'm gonna be honest, I completely forgot about this story.

I left my house a bit later than usual, in hope that I might miss the bus. I didn't. I go on the same bus as Calum (The guy that used me, decided he was bored of me and switched to my best friend) and I just don't think I can face him today. I saw that as though I have a choice when it's pretty obvious that I don't. If I ditch school the school will ring my parents and tell them I'm not in school, meaning I'll be grounded. Actually, maybe it would be good to get grounded. It would give me an excuse to stay in my room all day everyday. It's not like anyone would care anyway. The bus pulled up a bit late and everyone that was waiting got on. I always sit with my friend Avery, so I have to sit wherever she sits. The only seats were behind Calum. Just great. He occasionally tried turning around to try to talk to me, but I just ignored him. I'd feared that opening my mouth and having a conversation with him could cause me to break down. He pretended to care about me for so long, but I'd guessed he'd given up pretending. He didn't even notice that I was on the verge of crying. The bus pulled up at the school after 40 minutes of torture. I got off as quick as possible and me and Avery went to find our friends. They were waiting for us in the normal place; outside the student entry doors. You're probably expecting me to put in a bunch of speech from my friends and I talking about how much we're going to miss eachother over the holidays or something cliché like that. Well, prepare to be disappointed. This chapter isn't going to contain any speech, since I didn't pay attention to what people were saying. I bet you're thinking 'just make up some speech' or something similar. I'm not going to make it up, since there's no point.
