Cher comes to visit once in a while just to check on Perrie.
Come on. You just can't avoid school for the rest of your life Perrie." Cher persisted, "its only 6 hours. 7 hours tops."
"Those 6-7 hours will be hell."
"How much worse can it possibly get?" Cher asked, "you only have less than a month left! See how far you've come."
"You have no idea." I scoffed.
"At the end of the day, you're closer to graduating. The school knows your conditions. They gave them suspension and the years worth of detention."
"That's still not enough. Why can't this go to court?" I whined again, knowing what the answer is.
"Because we need physical evidence in order to file a case, missy. That's what Josephine said." Cher shrugged.
"Josephine doesn't know shit," I spat, "It's invasion of human rights!"
"You and I know that. Josephine knows that. Your siblings know that. And everyone else does too. But Perrie, you need to believe that not everyone believes in justice and consequences."
"Oh come on! Why do I have to go to school."
"You've missed school way too much. You're falling behind, pezza."
"You're not my mom." I huffed.
"Be glad I'm not." Cher laughed.

"Bye Cher." I waved her off at the train station.
"I'll miss you!" We hugged.
"I'll miss you more." I pulled her in tighter, "say hi to Ellie for me, won't you?"
"Of course. I have to go now Pez. I'll call you when I get there." Cher smiled, "let me know when you're moving so I can get the place ready for you."
"Okay, mom."
"Love you."
"Love you too."

"Today's going to be a good day." I muttered to myself as I step foot in the school. No one looked or noticed my presence. A good sign, I thought.
The first half of the day, no one even talked to me. During the attendance I heard some comments being spread but that didn't bother me.
But when lunch struck my body shut down.

"Zayn," Leigh called my name, "Did you see Perrie?" she whispered to me.
"Yeah, what about it?" I shrugged as I continued doing Ms Hart's work.
"Won't you talk to her?"
"The plan is already undergo. We don't want to mess that up." I told her.
"Come on just talk to her."
"I'll try. But if I go home with a black eye it's your fucking fault Pinnock."

The day went by pretty quickly now I was waiting for last period to be over. I clicked my pen creating an annoying noise that disturbed the teachers lesson.
"Perrie Edwards. Tone it down or else I will have to send you to the office!" Mr Alexis spoke.
"Sorry." I apologized and rolled my eyes.
"This teacher could not get any more annoying." Zayn whispered to me.
"Look who's talking."
"Okay Perrie I don't want to be friends but I'm expecting an acceptance."
"Why should you receive one?" I whispered back.
"Because I love you, that's why."
"Should have thought twice Malik. It's your loss not mine."
"Cliche Edwards, real cliche." He softly chuckled.
It was the beginning of the last month of school.
4 more weeks until my birthday.
But today was the day that I am going to destroy Zayn Malik.
