Future

Memories

I slowly walked to the office knowing exactly what was waiting for me knowing I was either going to be expelled or suspended normally I wouldn’t care but thinking of leaving Andy alone, I didn’t want to do it and now thinking back I know that was a mistake on my part but this is who I am and that’s not going to change not even she could do that to me, I was moved from the hospital to this town the day I met Andy I could have cared less who she was when they mentioned her but when she came in sarcastic and pissed she sparked my interest. Don’t get me started on how beautiful that girl is and how she drives me crazy just by being so close but I know to keep my distance, ok maybe not so much. I walked into the office and saw the one person I never expected to come see me, her black hair flowed down past her waist and her eyes were the same as mine it pissed me off that I got so much from her when she could give zero fucks about me.

“Hello Jace.” I snorted and looked at the women behind the counter.

“You two will be going into the back room to talk for as long as you like, but there will be cops placed outside the door for legal reasons.” I nodded as she got up showing us to the room that had no windows a black table in the middle I sat on one side, my mom on the other and the women closed the door.

“What do you want.” I snapped finally getting to the point, she didn’t look hurt or shocked because this was normal.

“I wanted to come see if you were ok, and the fact that your foster mother called and told me you may or may not be suspended so I came down to see you, not without CPS though cause of what happened.” I made sure to show my poker face (I learned it from her) but I was raging on the inside.

“After you let my father hit me with a metal bat over and over again? Yes I’m pretty sure I’m going to be suspended because I beat the living shit out of some guy today, why should you even care?” Her hands tightened slightly and I knew I hit a nerve, I should have stopped but I didn’t want to. “Is this some act that you thought of yourself? Or did he come up with it so he could have his own personal punching bag again? After everything that happened you always just sat there and watched never took a step in never intervened you acted like a heartless bitch, so tell me what in the hell are you really doing here?” If you haven’t noticed i’ve had a lot of time to think of this, she looked like she was about to explode and that honestly gave me satisfaction no I am not sick and twisted just a little screwed up from all the abuse they both put me through. Yes BOTH she mentally abused me and he physically abused me.

“Shut your mouth! I am still your mother and always will be how can you treat me like this? There were times when I tried helping you Jace!” I wanted to flip the table over.

“I have every right to treat you like this and name one time off the top of your head that you’ve helped me when that bastard was hurting me, and you screwed me up mentally always telling me I had it coming to me breaking me down being nice to me then turning around and letting him do all of that just watching almost like supporting him. You two can go to hell for all I care you're nothing to me and I hope you get locked up just like he did.” She didn’t have tears running down her face but instead she looked like she wanted to deck me because ALL OF IT was true and she knew it. I picked up my bag and walked out the door nodding to the cops.

“You ok?” My foster mother asked me (She was one of the cops) and that’s when my mother came stomping about to grab me when Lora stopped her. “Don’t even think about touching him.” She snapped.

“I’m fine, I’ll see you at home.” She nodded and I walked out quickly before they could remember I beat the living hell out of someone.

“Hey!” Andy turned around slightly and started walking a little slower letting me get closer, she was stunning as always as she stood there confused to why I was wanting to just be near her.
