Your POV:

I opened my eyes but closed again when a bright light stroke my eyes. I opened them again slowly and blinked a few times to adjust from the lighting. I saw the ceiling and looked around and saw I was at someone's home.

"Gladly you're awake." A voice echoed through the room.

"Yeah whatever. Where am I by the way." I said. I knew who I was talking to, in fact I know 'who she is' alright.

"At my house. I saw you knocked out on the restroom floor at school. You have cuts and bruises all over you face D.C." She said while taking a seat across from me.

"I know but thanks for helping anyway Aimee, I appreciated it." I said with a small smile. She sighed and stand up to seat next to me. She grabbed both of my hands and looked straight through my eyes.

"Darreth please, why won't you just tell the principal, your uncle. You know he will help, plus you own the school, it is written under your name. They will just make it worse if you don't tell anyone and they will haunt you forever Darreth you know that." She said and put one of her hands to my cheek where the bruise is. Her hand was still soft from the last time I touched it. Now let me tell you who Aimee is. She is basically my ex-crush yes 'ex-crush', but anyway back to topic. She basically helped me from the bullies back at pre-school. When I met Ally back in kindergarten, we became close friends but of course when new kids come in town you have to get to know them right, that's exactly what happened between Ally and I. She met Lauren, Dinah, Normani, and Camila as new kids and she got attached to them that she even forgot about me. Aimee and I lost contact until freshmen year but we still interact sometimes.

"I-I'll try."

"Don't try, do it."

"Did you quote my sayings when you need advice." I asked with raised eyebrow.

"Maybe, maybe not, but you have to do it promise?" She asked with a hopeful expression.

"Promise." I replied but she is not satisfied. She stuck out her pinky finger to be satisfied. "Fine, I promise alright." I said and wrapped my pinky to her pinky.

"Good. Now take a rest and I'll just wake you up when food's ready OK?" She said and I nodded. I laid back and rested my head on the pillows. I closed my eyes and let sleep take over me.

"Dad! Dad! Where are you?! Dad!" I shouted through the halls of the burning house

"Dad! Dad! Where are you?! Dad!" I shouted through the halls of the burning house.

"Mom! Mom! Where are you guys!" 

"Mom! Dad!  Answer me please!" I shouted as loud as I can and I heard a baby crying from a distance. I walk then run to where the crying is being heard, but every time I go closer the crying gets distant.

"Darreth! Darreth!"

"Darreth wake up!" I shoot up from my sleep and looked around. The house isn't burning. I looked back to Aimee to see her face with mixed expression and holding a face towel.
