Chapter Song: Show & Tell by Melanie Martinez

"You pull by my hair so I don't go nowhere. Tell me you love but you treat me like I'm never there. You say the cruelest words, you used to break my heart cause I'm over here working my ass off."

                     After I explained why I had left to all of them they immediately backed off of me. No one looked angry after my sob story about how I had to know what was happening to me , they all just gave me worried glances. Nothing else really happened after that. Most of them left expect for Scott, Isaac and my father. Scott has stayed with me until around 7:00 am before he had to leave to go to school.

I had told all of them that I wouldn't be attending but little did they know that as soon as Scott left my wound miraculously began to heal. As soon as I noticed that my shoulder began to stop aching I called Melissa in to hopefully release me because of my 'miracle recovery'. She did just that too, when she saw that my shoulder was perfectly aligned and I told her I felt nothing she looked around in shock not believing her eyes.

My dad came in and played it off as if my healing was nothing. I would never understand how he did that, he made people believe his bullshit coverups and it was honestly a talent in my mind. I don't know what he told her but she seemed to take it because in the next 15 minutes I was released from the care of the hospital and on my way to pick out the perfect outfit for school today. If I was going today I was going to be coming in style.

I had decided on a neon pink dress that may or may have not showed an unnecessary amount of cleavage but who cared. When I walked through the double doors of the school with a new pep in my step everyone's eyes were on me. They had all heard about how I was in the hospital but no one knew why, so I guess to see me here right now looking like i did in this dress with my blonde hair bouncing off my shoulders and my makeup done to perfection it must have been a tad bit shocking.

I had already missed first period but I made it just in time to make my grand entrance before second. I smiled at everyone as I strutted down the hall and even got some cat calls which I didn't appreciate but I was too focused on getting to class to turn around and break their necks... even though it did sound appealing.

Just as I was about to reach my class a hand stopped me in my tracks and pulled me off to the side. I yelped in protest but couldn't do anything about it as the person had a tight grip on my arm. They continued to pull me until we were both inside an empty classroom and the door was shut and locked.

As soon as the lock clicked the person finally let go of me allowing me to whip around and face the strange person who basically kidnapped me. When I made eye contact with them my eyes softened when I saw their eyes filled with tears.
