A week had passed in my new body. More people seemed to show respect towards me. I haven't been got pushed around treated like a bug. More guys seemed to take an interest in me, though I didn't know if I liked that last one to much. I was back at school, big Daniel caught the cold so Danny switched bodies leaving Daniel at home to sleep while Danny wondered around town. I was at school taking notes for my brother just as the lunch bell rang "Mira can I copy the rest of your notes?" She was just about to slip her notebook in her bag until she handed it over to me "of course, you not going to lunch?" "I'm good, I need to finish taking notes for Daniel" I opened her notebook to where I was lagging in class "okay, take your time" she and Zack were the last ones out leaving me alone. To get myself more focused I brought out my headphones and cellphone , I put the headphones over my head covering my ears like earmuffs turning my playlist on Welcome To My Life was first on. I scribbled down the notes many as fast as I could softly singing the song

"To be hurt, to feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one there to save you

No you don't know what its like...."

I turned Mira's page quickly writing down the next page only having to sharpen my pencil twice

"....Welcome to my life"

There were a few other songs that played afterwards but I slowly stopped mindlessly singing focusing solely on the notes infront of me. I got down to the last sentence when a hand slammed down on my desk causing me to dive away letting out a short but loud scream "it just me!" Me headphones fell off my head, the notebooks had followed me onto the floor. My eyes went up to me the eyes of Jace, I could feel my heart rammed in my chest. I could hear the panicked rthym that pounded in my ears "W-why are you here?" My voice cracked but I cleared my throat gathering the notebooks and my courage I stood facing him my desk between us. He raised an eyebrow at me taking a defensive stance but brushed it off "Vasco wants to talk to you-" "I'm busy" I grabbed my headphones putting them around my neck slipping the notes on the desk "you asked for it" before I had time to react my body shifted and my hair fell infront of my face. I could feel Jaces broad shoulder jabbing into my stomach "put more down!" I squirmed hitting his back with my fists "Before we get there I would like to apologize for accusing you of cheating-" "put me down now!" I screamed, one beacause I didn't want to hear him bring up my breakup. Two I did not want to meet Vasco even more than Jace brought up the breakup which meant there's a high chance what Vasco wanted to speak about would in fact be about the  break up which is something I'm not ready for "will you just list-" "HELP! He's kidnapping me!" I screamed as loud as I could, my voice bounced off the walls in the hallways which made jace go from his casual walk. To a fastened pace "I'm warning you!" I saw some student faces pop out of some classrooms we passed "be quiet, you act like I'm taking you to your doom" I inhaled a long breath just before letting out a glass shattering scream that jolted Jace, the scream alone made me light headed and my throat sore. Next thing I know I'm being put down in a familiar room. The architecture room.  I turned seeing Vasco with a worried expression and my friends, Vasco's followers behind him with equal expressions "I didn't hurt her! She just really didn't want to come" "I was in the middle of working!" I sent a glare at Jace who just looked past me. Turning I avoided all eye contact with my ex "what did you want?" Huffing out I crossed my arms I could see that Vasco waved off his group and they went to the oppisite side of the room mingling, I could see James was evesdropping watching every move we made "I wanted to apologize about the last time we spoke. It was a mistake, I didn't take into account many things-" when I gave a quick glance to him his eyes were focused on something on the far right wall, I followed his eyes to see that figurine I won for him was on a top shelf neatly cleaned. Before he could do anything as twitch my eyes shot down to my feet. It felt like thorns wrapping around my heart "-I don't like not being with you, I miss seeing you smile, I miss how happy you made me" each thorn was in synch with my heartbeat, each beat another lone thorn would get stabbed into my heart causing a prickling pain "Vasco stop" I had to cough to clear my throat to make my voice seem even the close to normal and swallow to make the lump in my throat slightly diminish "If it's about us dating, I'm going to stop you there. You broke me they way you ended it. My feelings were absolutly shattered into glass shards, those shards ground into dust which blew away in the winds-" I looked up to see he nearly had tears in his own eyes "-I think we jumped into things a little too early. So how about we be friends" there was no air that blew threw the classroom, no sound of scuffling shoes, no faint whispers. It was dead silent, I could heard my own heartbeat as I starred into the Coal colored eyes of my ex. He lowered his head "...okay" he sounded defeated.
