How I Got Over You.

Chapter 2 Failing To Get Rid Of Hunter

-Chapter 2-

BEEP BEEP BEEP. 5:00 AM

I crack my eyes open and glare at my alarm clock. I get out of bed and open the window, then I walk back to my alarm clock and fling it out of the window.

Ah, the second stage of grief; Anger.

Shut up self, nobody asked you anything.

Did you know that the first sign of going crazy is talki-.

''SHUT UP!" I yell at myself. Jeez I really am going crazy.

***********************************

I grab some sweats and my Nikes. After lacing up my Nikes and tying my hair in a ponytail I do some stretches. I jog down the stairs, grab my keys, write a quick note to my mom explaining where I'm going and leave.

I needed to get out of that place. So I started running, rage pushing me to keep going. I wipe the sweat of my brow but I keep going. I'm scared of what will happen if I stop. If I just keep concentrating on my burning lungs I can ignore the thoughts swirling around in my head.

After running for what seems like hours my lungs are pleading for oxygen, so I stop bending over putting my hands on my knees gasping for air. Which is when I realize that I'm in front of Hunter's house. I just ran across town without realizing that-. My thoughts are interrupted by the opening of his front door. I freeze, glued to the spot. This is not how I imagined my next encounter with Hunter. I imagined myself over him and looking good, not drenched in sweat looking like crap.

His eyes meet mine realization creeping into them. I take in his features which I've been craving to see. His brown hair, almost golden complexion and chocolate brown eyes. I didn't notice that I was staring till he calls my name bringing me back to reality.

Just the sound of his voice sends me back and forces my legs to pump them selves away from him.

"Alexis, wait let me explain!" He calls after me but I'm already turning the corner.

I sprint away from him as fast as I can, I only stop when I reach a little park. I sit down on the swing set tears stinging in my eyes. I can't keep the tears from falling. I know that I told myself that I would stop crying but I didn't expect to see him so soon. Just seeing him again ripped the seems (which weren't doing a really good job holding my heart together anyways) apart. When I look up I see Hunter rounding the corner and walking into the park. Does this boy never give up!

With wobbly legs I get up preparing to run away again. I start running away but my foot gets caught in a tree root and I fall flat on my face. What is this a frigging horror movie! 

I try to get up but I think I sprained my ankle. Hunter was nearing I was still struggling to get away from him.

"Jeez Lexi-."He starts. 

"Don't call me that." I hiss glaring at him.

"Okay, Jeez Miss Mayweather, I'm not going to kill you, you can stop running away." He says huffing.

"Why did you come after me?" I ask propping myself up against a tree.

"I was going to explain myself but now I'm going to bring you to the hospital, your ankle is turning blue Lex- Alexis." He says pointing to my ankle. I glance at my ankle which is turning a concerning shade of purple.

"What are you going to do carry-." I let out a startled squeak when he scoops me up in his arms. I start hitting him and plea for him to let me go. I hate myself for it but secretly I don't want him to let me go, maybe it's his Cologne making me hallucinate.

"Lexi- I mean Alexis you're hurt I have to bring you somewhere where someone can help you." He says swatting away my slaps

"You're the reason why I'm in pain." I whisper to myself so that he won't hear. But his eyebrows knot together so I think he heard.

"Hunter let me call my mom she'll pick me up." I say, an unreadable expression flashes across his face. 

"You know what fine, I tried." He says his face contorted with anger. Then he sets me down on a nearby bench and hands me my phone. I return my attention to the phone and dial my mom's number.

After a few rings she picks up the phone, and after I explain my situation she's on her way. When I avert my eyes from the ground I look up just in time to see Hunter punching a tree. My vision goes blurry after replaying what I saw. I wipe the tears away before he can see. Luckily my mom pulls up before anything else can happen. Hunter picks me up and carries me too my mom.

"Mrs Mayweather." Hunter politely says to my mom. What my mom does next makes me want to high five her. She just rolls her eyes and says,

"I can take it from here Hunter." 

Guess what, my mom has become the ice queen. And I'm lovin it (Yes, that was a Mc Donald's reference). Hunter puts me in the car seat says goodbye but I just ignore him. I am still smad (sad and mad).

************************************

It turns out that I sprained my ankle pretty bad. Frigging Hunter, hurting me emotionally and physically. 

After I hobble upstairs my mom calls.

"Oh Alexis, I almost forgot we're having our new neighbours over tonight so chop chop. They'll be here soon." My mom quickly calls up.

Crud, crud, crud. "You're telling me this now." I yell back down. 

"Yeah, well I can't change it anymore." My mom replies.

So I quickly put on a pretty white skirt and a tight black shirt with white dandelions on it. Then I quickly curl my hair, scrub off the dried mascara and dab on some new make-up. I decide to go barefoot because I am not stuffing my foot in a shoe.

Then I hobble back downstairs right before the doorbell rings.

Hey guys! What do you think? I'm kinda of exited for dinner (mine and Alexis'). Who is looking forward to school! Not me... Well you know what to do vote, comment and enjoy. Byeee luv u.
