"JOHN WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP"

I was woken up by Lauren telling me I was going to be late. It's been three nights since that day and every single one of them I re-call that night the one that wont leave my mind, A shiver is sent right down my spine and I get up

"Everything okay?" She asks me noticing that I'm a bit shook

"Yes everything's just fine" I lie going into my bathroom.

Worst of it all is that nobody can help.

*****************************************

Perfect, another day of school where I have to pretend to like the girl that I despise and hurt the girl that I love. So many threats she's told me and showed proof-

I snap out of my thoughts and run off to school where there's a line of for something. I must of forgot today's the auditions for the talent show! I planned on going and even auditioning, I had prepared for this but I don't really know anymore, I'm just not sure.. I don't even have my guitar so maybe I should just leave it right? No I'll try .Placing my hands on the number table I take one and place it on myself.

I can still try and relieve myself from all this stress and plus , I take a glance at my watch, I've got 30 minutes before Sophia arrives. She likes being 'fashionably late' which is ridiculoussince you can't be fashionably late if you don't have anything to show in the first place.

"Johnny boi" Brandon shouts out from the crowded hall and walks up to me, we do our bro handshake kinda cringy I know but whatever.

"Yo Brandon, what's up" he takes one long look at me and then scratches his head

"Just setting up the stuff for the stage, what's with the bruises and scratches?" Lauren's the only soul who I've told about this, she helped me 'cover it with concealer' but looks like running to school didn't really do much

"Sophia's cat, I fell off my bike that's why I got bruises too" I explain to him and he merely nods noticing that my number has been called up

"Good luck!" He yells out, I say thank you and walk backstage setting my stuff besides a cute bag and looking for a guitar. I find one and place the chord onto it walking onto the stage.

I state my name, age and talent as they've asked and begin.

I place my fingers over my strings.

"Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching tear drops in my hands
Only silence as it's ending
Like we never had a chance
Do you have to make me feel like
There's nothing left of me?

You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper

As the smoke clears, I awaken
And untangle you from me
Would it make you feel better
To watch me while I bleed?
All my windows still are broken
But I'm standing on my feet
You can take everything i have
You can break everything i am
Like im made of glass
Like im made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper
Go, run, run, run
Im gonna stay right Here
Watch you disappear
Go, run, run, run
Yeah its a Long way down, but i am closer to the clouds up
here
You can take everything i have
You can break everthing i am
Like im made of glass, like im made of paper
Oh, oh
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
(Like a skyscraper)
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper"

The judges clap and congratulate me to the finals, I smile to myself and think of

I chose this song especially because it's important for me , it's what I'm going through and what millions of other people must be going through, I can't admit that I'm honestly not scared to do this in front of everyone especially Kenz.. I mean Kenzie.

I walk down the steps and place the guitar where I had found it, then I grab my bag. As I'm grabbing my bag I see Kenzie walking towards me and my heart starts beating faster than the speed of light, I look up and she simply grabs her bag and leaves. I grab her wrist and attempt to get words out of my mouth but she shakes her head and walks away. I actually need her who would've thought..

"I'm an idiot." I whisper to myself while going to the entrance so that I walk in with Sophia. It's actually so ridiculous I cringe every time we do this.

"Hey sugar buns" she says kissing my cheek, I take a deep breath , sigh and take her hand

"Good morning babe" I say walking through the doors with her

A/N: don't kill me for late upload I'm sorry XD.

qotd:"One day or day one. You decide"
