The hidden truth

Chapter 58 - No fear

After my escape into the woods, Fred brought all my stuff over and everyone just chilled for a little. Trying to process what happened and trying to comfort each other, Mr Andrews even brought my bike over which I was thankful for since it was my pride and joy.

We set up my room in Sweetpeas spare room which made me feel so awkward since a bed came from somewhere and so did a dresser which was weird since I used Polly's at The cooper house so I didn't understand where they came from but I also didn't complain since that would be rude and these people had done a lot for me.

Everyone eventually went home in small drips and draps starting with Mr Andrews and Betty since she had to go before Alice killed her for being our past her 'home time' like she was a baby, something I would not miss from the cooper household. I told her to be careful and they went on there way, next to leave was Toni and Fangs who had come while I was 'missing' to try help with a search party they were putting together. Then FP and Jughead leaving me and Sweetpea all alone in a trailer in silence.

"Thank you, for letting me stay here" I said to him being genuine since he had let be stay in his spare room, eat his food, use his water and saved me. He deserved a lot more than a simple thank you but I wasn't sure how else to thank him.

"It's not probably doll, you need a place to crash and I have a spare room. Plus I've always wanted a room mate so works both ways" he said while a cocky smile before going off towards his room "you should sleep, I know your not going to school tomorrow but you should try get some rest" he said with a shrug before going to his room to do whatever it is boys do in there bedrooms.

I never agreed to not going to school, I loved school and I had already missed too much so if they thought I was gonna miss more than they were crazy but I wouldn't tell them that since I didn't fancy a fight with the serpents plus their leader although they were my family and I knew it wouldn't be a big fight, I was a big girl and I could decided my own stuff and whether I was going to school or not, I'd just leave after Sweetpea and hope not to get caught until it was too late or caught at all.

I walked into 'my' room and laid on the bed which made me feel uncomfortable, I looked around the room and felt slightly uneasy with myself already. The close walls and everything made me feel exposed a feeling I hated and I knew would stay with me thanks to him, I laid on my bed and hoped that I'd be able to sleep and everything be okay. However, since it was my luck I closed my eyes and there the scene was. Granted I could only hear what was going on and not actually see it, it was harder to understand what was happening but I knew I had to sleep.

Or at least that's what I told myself.

I woke up the next morning, I had barely slept Becuase all the noises woke me up and made me jump since I couldn't see what was happening around me and it made me think of the ordeal I had gone through but I knew I couldn't show fear at least not to anyone else. I got up and started on my outfit for the day.

I grabbed my black crop top with a slit, my high waisted jeans,ankle boots. My black chocker with my necklace from my father and decided that make up was a good idea, I did my make up to hide the lack of sleep and to make myself look better than I was feeling, I finished it with a matte deep red lip. I grabbed my phone and began on my hair, I put it in a simple ponytail with my fringe out and proud. I got my bag and helmet and made my way out of my room. I looked around to see that Sweetpea hadn't left for school yet, this was my chance. I grabbed the door key and went out the trailer before putting the key back through the letter box, I hopped onto my bike before riding off to school, I loved the feeling of being on a bike and being free.

I pulled up outside of school and hide my bike in with some of Serpents before heading inside, I put everything in my locker and grabbed my stuff for the day. I made my way down and into the student lounge where I saw Toni, she didn't know I wasn't meant to be in school right? She smiled at me and walked off behind Cheryl, ohhh she's still on that.

I sat down and picked up my book while I waited for First period, everything was going smoothly until the fantastic four walked through the door and looked straight at me with Sweetpea and Fangs on their tails.

"What are you doing here? Dad didn't want you in school?" Jughead questioned with his arms crossed and I sighed before putting my book down.

"I love you and dad a lot Jug but staying at home wouldn't have helped, Id have been all alone and only been able to think about it. I don't want that, I want distraction" I said to him honestly. I looked at him and he seemed to understand "plus I've missed enough school, I would be so behind Jughead and I've only just managed to catch up from the last time" I said to him and hoped he would be okay with this and allow me to stay without calling dad and having him drag me out of school by my hair.

"Fine, don't get hurt okay?" He said to me before pulling me into a big brother hug which made me smile, I looked over his shoulder to see Fangs wink at me and mouth 'you look good today' in a none creepy way of course, I was one of the only people that knew about him and Midge Klump so I wasn't worried.
