I Can't Stop

Party Like It's Not Your Birthday

A/N: Hey guys... so I know it has been a while since I have posted, I was in the middle of writing and my whole chapter was deleted so. Anyway I was on family vacation so I couldn't really write. But here is the next chapter.

Party Like It's Not Your Birthday

I woke up to the sounds of birds chirping and sprinklers turning on. Today I woke up easily, it was not just some random day in March, it was my birthday. March 14th, also known as pi day. It is Friday so I can actually have a party on my actual birthday this time. Except, I would only invite 5 people. Caleb, Abby, Acacia, Julia, and Sarah. I'm still not talking to Emylee and Lexi. I was almost raped and they were too drunk to notice anything. We just aren't close anymore and honestly I'm okay with that. I am just going to find new friends next year. Other than the 4 that I already have. I got on my phone and scrolled through face book. I got a couple 'happy birthday messages'. I looked at the clock and decided to get out of bed. I opened my pink curtains and I could smell the scent of spring, since my window was open. I went down stairs and there was a huge surprise waiting for me. Caleb. He was at the bottom of the steps with balloons and a present. 

"Caleb, what are you doing here?" I asked him.

"It's your birthday and I'm your best friend! Of course I have to be here!" He exclaimed.

"No one else is," I said with a sad look on my face.

he walked up to me and grabbed my shoulders.

"Hey, hey don't think about that okay. I'm here, that's what matters." he cooed. "Now go get ready, I'm making pancakes," he said. 

I walked up stairs, put on my outfit for today which was a black floral dress from Forever 21 that went down a little bit above my knees. I curled my hair and put on my makeup. I walked over to my vanity and squirted perfume on. I needed to look my best today. I walked back down stais and I could smell the pancakes and syrup. 

"You look great Karabear," he complimented. 

"Thanks, but uh do not call me that" I answered blushing. 

We both sat down at the table and forked into or breakfast, which was really good.

"For a teenage guy, you are actually a really good cook," I teased him.

"Wow thanks," he laughed.

"Hey, let's get going, we can't be late," Caleb demanded.

"I'm scared. It's my first day back," I said.

Caleb wrapped his arms around me.

"It's gonna be okay, you're gonna be okay," he reassured me.

I got into his car and plugged my phone in so my music could start playing. We drove silently but it was a nice silence, calming. 

We arrived at school and I just sat in the car staring at it for a couple minutes, until Caleb opened my car door and helped me out.

I didn't wanna go. I wanted to stay in the car forever but I had to get out eventually so I guess now will do. We walked up to the school and I saw people staring. I knew this would happen. I hadn't even been to school in over a month.

I heard a couple 'happy birthdays' as I pushed my way through the hall and then I saw him. There Cade was. Talking with his friends. No one stared at him. Just me. And I looked to the right and thee were Emylee and Lexi fraternizing with some other girls. We made eye contact but they didn't come over. Lexi pulled out her phone and I received a text.

Happy Birthday is what I said. I looked at it but I dodn't reply. I looked back up at her and she gave me a funny face. 

I rushed to my locker and grabbed  my things for first period. Great, first period... Tommy. 

I walked into the classroom and soon all eyes were on me. Sympathetic eyes. I don't need pity. I sat down and out of the corner of my eye I saw someone walking to me. Tommy. 

I just stared as he sat down in the seat in front of me and turned to face me.

"Hey, are you... okay?" He asked.

"I'm fine," I answered. No I'm not. I have been asked that so many times today and all I have said is 'I'm Fine' but I haven't meant that once.

"Don't lie to me, I know when you're lying," he aid.

"You lost all privilege to know anything about me after that the winter dance," I snapped at him.

"Kara, let me ex-" he started to say.

"I can't deal with this. Just leave me alone," I interrupted him.

He turned back around to face the whit board, obviously hurt from what I just said. I didn't answer a single question and I stared at my desk the whole class. When the bell rang I was the first one out of the room. I rushed over to Caleb's locker. 

Soon lunch came. I couldn't sit with my friends because Emylee and Lexi were there. I asked Caleb if i could sit with him and his friends. 

I sat down and everyone was looking at me. 

"Guys, You're making it really obvious that you are staring at me! I know I'm hot but c'mon," I joked.

They all started laughing but soon enough the mood was ruined when Cade sat down right next to me. 

"Hey, I heard it's your birthday, so happy birthday princess," he said while smirking. That very infamous smirk. 

"Cade, leave!" Caleb shouted. 

Everyone in the lunch room looked at us. 

"I'm sorry, I just wanted to wish the girl a happy birthday!" He tried to defend himself. 

Caleb stood up and grabbed the collar of Cade's shirt. 

"You don't say anything to her, you don't even look at her, you worthless pice of shit!" Caleb yelled.

"Caleb.. sit down," I whispered but he didn't hear me. 

Soon Cade was throwing punches and hit Caleb right in the face. I couldn't move and Caleb was on the ground with Cade thrashing at him. 

Everyone surrouned us yelling 'fight , fight , fight'.

Soon Caleb was on top of Cade and punching him. 

What the hell is going on right now? 

Mr. Hoover, the principal stepped in and stopped the fight. he took both boys to the principal's office. 

"Hey Kara, you doing okay?" A girl asked me."I heard Caleb got suspended." she said. 

"I'm fine,"I lied again. 

Thank God school was over because I couldn't handle another second of this hell. I got into my car and my mom asked me how my day was. I told her everything. 

We arrived home and my mom and dad called me out of my room. 

"Honey, we need to talk to you about something," My dad said.

"Okay, what is it? It's not like my day could get any worse," I answered.

"Actually it could," my mom said. And it felt like my heart dropped and I instantly started to panic. 

"Wh-What?" I stuttered.

"Kara, we're moving," my mom said.

And then everything went silent
