WAKE UP!

my dad shook me awake

"its 5:30 wake up time for school"

i got ready, i put on white capris and a flowy tank top. i grabbed my phone off its charger and went downstairs to eat breakfast. i had a minute and i looked at my phone notifications, i had a lot of texts, a couple from brandon, one from miranda a few from kids from school in mass and one from harry. soon enough i had to go on the bus. i sat alone as usual, then when i got to school i went to homeroom. i didnt talk to anyone and kinda shut harry out because i couldnt stop thinking about brandon. how could he do that to me? a whole year and i didnt know. i had been so loyal to him. i unlocked my phone and it opened to the picture. my heart ached, my eyes stung. the bell rang and i rushed to first period. then second, then third then lunch. i decided to go to the bathroom first, i guess i was in there for awhile because i skipped lunch. it didnt matter because i wasnt hungry. i got a text from harry

'where are you?'

'bathroom why'

'you havent come to lunch yet'

'i dont want to'

i guess he left it at that, there was five minutes to fourth period so i left the bathroom. to my surprise harry was there waiting.

"how long have you been waiting there?"

"i dont know 10 minutes, i brought you lunch"

"you didnt have to do that im not hungry. eat it"

"i already ate, eat it you must be starving"

"im fine harry"

"well your not acting like it"

"harry i said im fine"

i snapped at him, i dont wanna deal with someone worrying about me, i just wanna go home. i looked at him and he looked hurt.

"im sorry harry i didnt mean to get frustrated its just i dont want you worrying about me"

he hugged me and the bell rang.

the rest of the day was boring. it went by slow and i just want to go home and destroy everything brandon gave me and everything about him.

once the day was over i rushed out of school and basically jogged home. my mom wasnt home. she left me a note saying she'll be home in a half hour. i went up in my room, i watched tv and went on my phone and sulked. i cried and anger built up inside of me.

a week later, after ignoring all of harrys questions, sometimes skipping lunch, keeping to myself, i couldnt take the frustration anymore. i ripped my drawers open and i heard my mom call my name, i didnt answer she was probably just telling me she was home. i threw my clothes out and grabbed the camera brandon gave me. i grabbed it and smashed it on the ground. just as it broke my door flung open and i turned to see who it was. it wasnt my mom or my dad, not even my siblings.

it was harry.

"aubrey! what are you doing?!"

he ran over and hugged me and i sobbed in his arms.

"how'd you get in here?"

i managed through tears.

"your mom let me in and told me where your room was sense you werent answering her calls"

crap.

i pulled away from the hugged and kicked the camera that was scattered everywhere.

"why?"

i shook my head and flopped on my bed and sobbed.

"well whatever it is, you can tell me. i wont tell anyone"

he rubbed my back and sat next to me for awhile. i finally pulled myself together and sat up.

"last week after my first day i was on my phone and i saw a picture of my ex boyfriend who i had to break up with because i was moving, well he posted a picture saying 'happy one year baby!' and it was a picture of one of my bestfriends and him kissing!"

i cried even more. he hugged me and told me everything was gonna be okay.

"he's obviously a jerk, and he wasnt meant for you. you deserve someone so much better then him."

"i love him though, he obviously didnt love me. and whats the worst part is it was for a year! how could i be so oblivious. i know i always hated chloe but i never had a reason to"

and then he kissed me.
