The next day i woke up early and tried to get my life together and go to school.
I grabbed my backpack and skateboard and drove to school, i decided not to give a f**k about what people think about me, or how they look at me..
I stopped at the parking and left the skateboard close to the school door, while everyone was looking at me and whispering.
I turned around to the voice of Serena, i saw her standing with a guy next to her, his arm was on Serena's shoulder.
"well well, didn't the spoiled little rat came back to school, what is it, are you bored of coming home drunk?"
Everyone laughs but few of my friends who don't dare to come and help me.
"like you are any better, you change your boyfriends like you change your pants"
I turn around and start walking to the door, but suddenly a friend's of Serena grabs my skateboard with a smirk.
"Don't you dare touch my skateboard!"
"what are you gonna do about it slut!?"
Again i hear Serena and almost everyone else laugh, but then i see a girl pushing the guy who had my skateboard, i couldn't really see her face all i saw was black hair.
"yo chill.."
He moved backwards and i quickly i come closer and then the girl turns around giving me the skateboard.
"thanks.. uh wanna walk in school together?" i ask
"sure"
We go inside and everyone is staring, some taking pictures but when they saw the girl with me they kinda backed off, that was strange.
"so my name is Melody"
"i'm Luna"
"nice to meet you... so can i ask you something"
"of course"
"why are you friendly to me, i mean im sure you know the rumours about me"
"i just know how it is to be an outcast, i'm not usually this friendly but i just.."
"you feel pitty?"
"no its more empathy, i've been to similar situations.."
"oh"
"well this is my class, i'll see you later"
"okay bye"
She goes in the classroom and when i look forward i see Stefan.
"Melody?"
I try to escape him and go around but he catches my arm.
"what is it, i don't have time classes already starting"
He looks at me in the eyes with shame .
"i'm really sorry"
"yeah like that's gonna fix everything"
I feel sick and let go off his arm and run to the bathroom.
after throwing up i look at the watch and i know i'm late for the class,i decide to go to the principal and tell him what happened, and that i'm back, hopefully he will give me some slack for missing a few days of school.
I knock on his door and it opens.
"mr. principal?"
"come in"
When he sees me he is surprised, but also angry.
"Melody? you finally decided to go to school after so many passes."
"i'm sorry i was a mess. i should have just came to school when my free pass was over.."
"well you came late, the classes already started"
"i know but i felt sick, that's why i missed my class"
he shuffles through some paper
"you know i will give you a pass this time, only because i know you'r father well, i hope they come to see you and get you back into your normal self, Melody honestly you need to focus, what happened with your swimming, you were top of the class, the same with almost every subject, but i see those grades lowering if you don't work hard"
"i promise i'm back for good, i will do my best"
"i'm glad to hear that, okay you can go now, but don't miss any classes and if you need help then go to the nurse"
"okay thank you, bye"
I leave his office and i see Jojo Andre and Joe in the hall.
"hey" i wave
They see me but suddenly my phone rings, i see it's Ace, i decide to call him after school and turn off the phone.
I go to them and see also Luna is joining.
"hello"
"oh hey, i didn't realize you know my friends, well they are my only friends, we're like the outcasts" she laughs a bit
"we just skated a bit with her, she's cool" says Joe
"yeah we had fun"
"lets skate again!" says jojo with excitement
"i guess we will see you later, we got classes now"
"yeah Andre's right we got classes"
"okay cya guys"
After all classes ended we met again in the hall, i told them to meet me outside because i had to visit the school's nurse, i was nauseous all the time.
When i came there i even got dizzy, i sat down as the nurse insisted, and she checked me out, but everything was fine, after that she made a blood test.
After few minutes she came in with the results and her face was almost shocked and worried.
"what is it?"
"well, Melody have you ever.... had uh... an encounter with someone... i mean uh"
she was too shy and nice but i got what she wanted to say.
"you mean have i ever had sex.... answer is yes."
"Melody i'm afraid you are positive"
"i'm confused, what am i positive for?"
"pregnancy"
I look at her for a minute and then take her paper to make sure, and yes it was positive, i am pregnant.
"do you mind if i have that.."
"uh yeah ofc"
I take the result and put it in my backpack.
"i have to go now"
"oh please do come back any time if you wanna talk about this"
I quickly grab everything and go outside, Luna notices my expression.
"hey are you okay"
"yeah let's just go"
We start walking and come to the skatepark where i sit on a bench.
"Melody, you can tell me anything you know"
"thanks but.. i don't know how to even talk about this.... i can only say that i was so stupid.."
"you're not stupid, sometimes we just do stupid things, but it doesn't mean we are stupid"
I look at her and smile with tears in my eyes.
