Chapter- 20

Alex's POV

I felt the sun hitting my eyes. I couldn't really see much but blur in my other eye though. Must have gotten worse since then, huh?

I got up and looked around, spotting Angelica behind the stand with an apron on. She spotted me as well and made her way over. She didn't smile. She didn't show any note of affection or friendship. Her gaze was blank.

"Alexander.. what happened?" She asked, slowly touching my eye. I winced in pain from it and she stopped. She let out a small sigh and took a seat infront of me.

"Ugh,, what time is it?" I asked, trying my best to change the subject.

"6:33 a.m, but Look, I don't need you to tell me. I'm just hoping it doesn't happen again ok? if it does.. I swear I'll beat there ass." I nodded.

Angelica and I talked for a few minutes before I had to go shower and get ready for school. God do I wish I could cover it up or something. It's really gonna cause drama, attention(Something I desire but hope to not have this time) and maybe a fight at that. Well that's my least hope.

Maybe not even a hope.

Johns POV

———

I paced around my room back and forth. I was stuck in thought. I couldn't get over the fact that I 'barely' punched Alex but yet his face looked like shit. I threw things, and I kicked my desk and bruised my toe. Earlier I threw some papers out the window. Though they only fell like a feather. Everything is just like one hell hole.

I grabbed my phone and checked the time.

7:22 am. I leave at 7:30.

I'm nervous about school. What will people think. That I was crazy? Or can I have the dignity to smack talk them. Be a bitch. I am a bitch. A basic one, mind you.

I hurried and grabbed a black and white jacked and tied it around my waste. I grabbed my book bag and other things and headed out.

As I made my way through the hall way. I got a couple glares. Some were just like 'what the hèll' and In fact I didn't care. They should actually come and visit me and maybe we can talk about there opinion.

I'm sure they'd love to have that with lil o'laurens huh?

I paced through the hallway and sat down in a spot located by ELA. It was too early to be waiting by the door at this time but I don't care. Honestly I stopped caring about anything and everything. It's just a matter of time when the seven shitty hours of my day are gone, so what's to pay attention too? And home work is another, no, on my list. Even though I worded really hard on keeping those turned in and graded at the exact time. Some teachers got quite annoyed of that, but very pleased of my hard working. Not anymore though.. that's for a fact.

I made eye contact with a curtain, James Reynolds. He smirked when he saw me and cooed along the way of coming over. I smiled knowingly.

"Johnny~ how nice of you to take my request." He came over and grabbed my chin and I giggled.

"Of course." This was no where near the limit of wrong. This was me and who I was staying.

"Eating less?" I stopped in thought and struggling to actually take in what he said. Was he saying I was fat too? I always checked and seemed skinny as hell. I probably Hey look like I'm trying to loose weight already. But I'm not. Is he blind?

But I went with it.

"Yep, eating less." Time to do something new I guess.
