Broken Screens

Chapter 5

Thump Thump

thump thump

All I can hear is my heartbeat as I walk into the school.

It's almost deafening.

Calm Down everything's gonna be fine, you're gonna walk in and you and Ella will hug and it will all be fine

No, it won-

Shut up yes it will. Everything will be fine, drop your books off in homeroom and then go say hi.

SMACK

Oh god. I just ran into my locker, Fuck wheres logan if he saw I'm screwed

I whip my head around to see if he saw or anyone else for that matter.

Ok, I don't think anyone saw. I think we're good

"Julia, did you just run into your locker?" Shit

"Hey ame, yeah I did hehe." I let out a nervous chuckle at least logan didn't see otherwise id be dead.

I quickly put in my combo and shove my bag in my locker before I embarrass myself further. Grabbing my books I walk into homeroom and drop them on my desk taking a breath to steady myself I leave before the fucking perv of a teacher can talk to me.

Alright just go say hi to Ella and everything will be chill just walk, alright there she is

"Hi Ella" Nothing, she looks up and walks away I quickly hop into her homeroom to see what was wrong when I see it. The look on her face, a look of pure disgust

What did I do , I feel my eyes prick with tears

No, not here

Stumbling out of the room my vision blurred I run down to the eighth-grade hall ignoring the stares. Seeing my best option right now I throw myself on Ava sobs wrack my body as she holds onto me

"Jugi whats wrong?"

"El-la, sh-she" More sobs echoed through the hall as more people stared,

"Come on Jug lets go somewhere else" Ava carefully leads me to the bathroom, once there she holds me and lets me cry. I don't know how long we stood there with Ava letting me cry but the sound of the door opening jarred me from my crying fit.
