"Rose. Schools starting soon. But you don't have to go if you don't want to." is the first thing I hear when I wake up the morning after my fight. I slowly open my eyes and see my dads happy face. Although it's still bruised from whatever happened. He's probably still happy about the rolls and rolls of money he got last night.
"Ok..............just give me a sec," I say slowly still trying to wake my sore body up.
I winced as I sat up still feeling the pain of a punch to the gut. Surprisingly I made it to my room in only ten minutes. Since the weather has started to get colder I decided to wear a dark red sweater and my black ripped pants and of course my normal shoes. I brushed my hair and put it into a low messy bun not really caring how I looked.
I wonder where my leather jacket is but right now I don't have time to worry about that. I just need to go see Trey and my friends and I'll come back home.
No biggie.
When I came out I saw my dad throw his phone across the room before he turned around and saw me.
His eyes.
He was scared.
I've never seen him so afraid in my entire life.
"Let's get you to school ok?" He said in almost a whisper. I nodded my head and now I'm in front of my school.
"See ya later dad," I say and jump out of the car not once looking at him.
As soon as I look up my eyes meet a familiar pair of brown eyes.
Treys eyes.
"Rose!!!!! It's so good to see you!" Kim said and soon her arms were wrapped around me, "please tell me you're ok." She whispered in a frantic tone.
"I'm fine I promise," I whisper back. We pulled away and her eyes were slightly watery. But I didn't get to ask what's wrong before I was ripped away and into a strong warm embrace. I recognized his smell immediately.
"Oh gosh. Thank goodness you're ok!! I don't know what I would have done if you didn't come," he paused and took a step back from me looking all around my face but they stopped when they met my right eye.
My black eye.
And then my lip.
My busted, swollen lip.
"What happened?"
"Nothing. I'm perfectly fine now if you don't mind I have to go talk to my friends," I say annoyed that he has to care so much. I walked away from him with all the power I had. I was only a foot away when I missed him already.
Soon enough I got to my group of friends with all of them asking me where I was yesterday, and how I got my facial injuries.
"Well........you know how things happen. But it was nothing they don't even hurt anymore," I say with a shrug of my shoulders even though they hurt like a mother.
—-Trey—-
"What happened?" I ask as I look at her beaten face.
"Nothing. I'm perfectly fine now if you don't mind I have to go talk to my friends," she says annoyed and walks away from me towards our group. I didn't waste any time to walk right after her.
"Well........you know how things happen. But it was nothing they don't even hurt anymore," she said with a shrug when I got right next her. I slowly put my hand on her lower back which makes her tense up, but soon relaxed her somewhat.
"So about that surfing trip? Since you couldn't come last time do you think you can do it this Saturday?" John asks with hope evident in his voice.
And for some reason my blood started to boil.
"Oh ya! I'm sorry I couldn't come last time but I will for sure come this time!" She says with pure excitement. I've never seen her so happy.
"Yes!! I'm so happy!!" Joan yells and does a small victory dance.
She one of the weirder ones but when I hear Rose laugh at her nothing matters. But then her face changed as if something bad happened.
"What's wrong?" Jake asks but I'm not to hot this time.
"Oh I just remembered that my surfing board hasn't been delivered yet so I don't have one," she says with a disappointed look.
Then a thought pops into my head.
Could I?
Of course you can.
You are Trey McCarter!
"I can take you to a shop I know that sells really good boards," I say before anyone else can get a word out.
She looks at me and smirks.
And as non-manly as this sounds my heart fluttered.
"Ok sure."
A smile slowly grew on my face as realization hit me that she agreed.
"Oh class starts in two. We better get going," Jane says and I couldn't keep the smile off of my face for the rest of the day.
