I wake up and I'm sitting at the dinning room table. I look at my phone. 8:15. I have 10 minutes to get ready. I run upstairs and brush my hair throwing on a pair of baggy sweats and a t-shirt. I grab my bag and purse and phone. I grab the keys to my mom's car.I drive to school going 10 over the speed limit. I arrive at school and I have only 2 minutes to get to class. I run down the empty hall, I look down at my phone to see what time it is but I run into someone. I look and see Caleb on the floor next to me. He looks at me and smiles.
"Hey Carter." He says but I just get up and ignore him.
"Hey! Carter! I'm talking to you!" He says with frustration in his voice. I try to walk away but he grabs my writs and pushes me up against the wall.
"WHAT THE HELL? I'M TRYING TO TALK TO YOU." He yells in my face.
"We have nothing to talk about." I say and I see pure anger fill his eyes. He lets one of my writes go and just when I thought he was going to let me go, his hand collides with my face full blast knocking my to the ground.
"FINE THEN YOU LITTLE SLUT, WE DON'T HAVE TO TALK NOW BUT WE WILL LATER!" He yells before leaving me to lye on the floor. I hear the bell ring and I get up, but instead of rushing to class, I go to the bathroom to clean up. I wipe the blood from my split lip and try to apply makeup to my already forming black eye. I wait a little longer until I have stopped crying and my eyes aren't so puffy before heading to class. I walk in and don't say anything beck to my teacher who is on my back for being late and when he asks why, all I say is 'I slept in.' No one can know what is happening, no one. Class goes by and I don't even try to look like I'm paying attention. My eyes are fixed on the window that has a beautiful view of outside. I turn my head when the window seems to only be making me feel worse and fix my eyes on the clock. I only have 5 more minutes before lunch then only 2 periods after that. The bell rings and I walk out of class but stop short when my teacher calls me back in.
"Are you alright Carter? I mean you looked dazed for the entire class, and you late, that just isn't like you." He asks with a concerned look on his face. I just nod my head though.
"Ya, I just slept in and it has messed with my day." I say trying to put the best fake smile on while inside and out, I'm hurting. My teacher lets me go to lunch without anymore questions. I go to my locker and see Jacob leaning against it.
"Hey Carter." He says and I put on the best fake smile.
"Hey." I'm trying my hardest not to cry because it's hard to lie to someone you trust so much.
"So, I brought you my jersey, are you still up to going to the game." I nod my head.
"Ya, just let me go change, I slept in this morning so I look horrible. Just wait here, I'll be right back." I always have an extra pair of jeans in my locker so I grab them and go to the bathroom slipping on the jeans and Jacobs extra jersey. I walk back out and throw my sweats inside my locker. I do have to admit that thinking about the game and seeing Jacob has made me feel a little bit better, but remember, key word 'a little', We walk to the lunch room and sit with Mickey and Dallas, plus Mason and Jensen. Through lunch I can tell that Mickey and Dallas see something 'not right' with me but again I dismiss it as 'nothing'. I go to my last period of the day and it goes by slow and once again I'm just staring out the window and staring at the clock and like before my teacher asks whats wrong and I say 'Nothing' but I want to scream, scream out what Caleb did to me and that he hurt me. I also want to die because I know that he is going to do it again and I'm not ready for it. I walk to my locker and grab my bag and purse and head for Jacobs car. He is already there when I get there and being the gentle man he is, he opens the door for me then shuts it when I get in. We drive to the arena in silence but Jacob fills it when he reaches over and takes my shaking hand, I don't think he realizes that it is shaking because he doesn't say anything. We get there and we walk in hand in hand. I hug Jacob and wish him good luck before heading to find a seat.
I don't pay any attention to that game and the only reason I know it's over is because the overly loud buzzer goes. I get up and walk out of the arena not wanting to have to go through all the traffic so I thought I would just wait for Jacob at his car. Just when I thought I was walking alone, I hear someone behind me so I whip my head and see Caleb.
"Hey Carter." I don't say anything back to him.
"Listen, I'm sorry for what happened earlier, I just think that if we just talk everything over then we might still have a chance." I shake my head.
"What?" Is all he says in a hurt voice which seems to boost my confidence.
"No, Caleb. I'm with Jacob now and by the way, you cheated on me! How am I just supposed to forget that and also you hurt me today Caleb, you fucking punched me in the face!" I say and I see him stiffen. He walks up to me and pushes me up against the building, chocking me.
"I bet you couldn't wait to wrap your fat legs around him and just screw him over, huh? Your a slut." Caleb screams in my face. He lets go of my neck to let my fall to the ground. I punches me in the face a couple of times before kicking me in the side. When he fells accomplished he walks away leaving me to possibly die.
