Haden

Chapter 1

*Lana POV*

I ran as his voice drifted of in the distance only to find myself in a dark forest.

I slid against the tree wincing at the bark scraping against my skin.

I sat there gasping for air, like I'm being suffocated. My breaths were short and it feels like I'm unable to get enough oxygen as tears slid down my face.

Pathetic.

Pathetic.

Pathetic.

The word played through my head like a broken record. I should hate him! Y-yet I still love him. And I-I hate myself for it.

I felt myself wander to his face. He had dark green eyes, brown hair, and the jaw that looks like it can kill. Then I thought about what he had said," I love you... but I'm in love with Kelly." I laughed humorless thinking back at what he said.

Of course he would choose her. She was well..Kelly. Beautiful, long blonde hair, perfect body, and the most prettiest blue eyes you could ever had. She was perfect.

While it was plain old me. Brunette hair with blue eyes standing at 5'5.

He made me feel...

Numb.

Then I faded into darkness.

I woke up a few hours later still in the same spot before. But the question was where the he'll was I? I didn't even know because Axel drove me here. Yea, his name is Axel. Beautiful right?

Wait- I think I had my phone on me.

5 Missed calls from Axel

11 Missed calls from Dad

I cursed underneath my breath I'm so dead its 4 AM.

I walked to the nearest road to looked for a street name and called a über. The Uber arrived shortly after to pick me up. I'm guessing I looked terrible from the über driver's cringe when he looked at me.

"Address?" The driver asked.

I told him the address and silently thanked the driver as we reached the house. I scrambled for my keys when I tried to open the door. The door opened itself to reveal my dad.

"Dad-" He held he hand up and walked up the stairs. A yawn escaped my lips, I made my way up stairs and passed out on the queen bed.

BEEP

BEEP

BEEP

BEEP

BE-

"SHUT IT OFF OR I SWEAR!" My brother Zack yelled.

Its been two days since that night. Axel kept calling but I had ignore it. Today's Monday.

I let out sigh and turned off the blasting alarm, I decided not to go school today. Pain started to erupt from my head probably from all that crying I did. I rose up away from my bed still in the same clothes as the night before. I walked into my shower for a cry session.

Its Friday. My dad forced me to got to school today. So here I am driving to school in my Black 2015 Jeep Wrangler. I pulled up in my usual parking stop and hopped out. Looking down at my outfit it was a was an olive loose top-hoodie and ripped jeans with fish nets underneath. If I go to school might as well be in style.

As soon I walked inside the school building I saw Axel. His back faced me. Then saw Kelly clinging onto his arm like her life depeneding on it. But I don't care. He choose her. Its okay.

It's not okay.

"LANA MARIE JAMES!" A familar voice called out.

I got tackled by my one and only bestfriend Ethan a.k.a the schools player. We have been friends for years now. We were both on the floor causing a sence like he always does. He filicked my forehead and shouted "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!"

 I looked behined Ethan and saw Axel. My first time seeing his face since that night. He had bags under his eyes and hair that looked like it been ran through a thousands times. We made eye contact his eyes held anger and relief. Why?

I got flicked on my forehead again.

"Ow, get off me." I pleaded.

"Sure thing, babe." He winked.

Ethan got off of me to help me up. He put is arm over my shoulder when we walked down the hall. "So where have you been?"

"I don't want to talk about it."

"You look liked someone took your favorite toy. You need to loosen up sometimes. There's a party tonight you should come."

"Maybe.."

"Thats my girl." He smiled. 

"I need to go find someone to bring for the party. I catch you later okay?" Ethan said as we reached my locker. I nodded my head yes, he hugged me and left like that.

Just as I opened my locker somebody slammed it shut. What the hell?! Spinning around getting ready to snap at the person.

It was Axel.
