Chapter 3

Marie's Pov.

Once I was at the hospital I had to sign all these papers and wait for a long time. My hand was still throbbing like hell. Once a nurse finally called my name and took me back to get my hand x-rayed she gave me some pain medicine. After the x-ray there was more waiting.

They finally came back out for me. And told me I had to get a cast. Great. Just what I needed. I chose a pretty light blue cast. After I got my cast they finally let me go home.

After spending 3 hours waiting in the hospital I was ready to go home.  Once I got home I realized I had 4 missed calls and 10 messages from Chris. I looked at the time knowing this was his free period I called him. Since I can't text very fast because the cast covers my whole thumb. Ugh. I already hate this thing.

"Hey. Where did you run off to? Why did you skip math? That's not like you." Chris asked sounding worried.

"Chris, I'm fine. Well kinda. Ashton slammed my locker door on my hand. Then he leaned against it. I went to the nurse and she told me I had to go to the hospital. And now i'm at home." I told him.

"Oh ok. You'll be back tomorrow right?" He asked hopefully.

"Yes i will." I told him.

"Ok. Bye." He said in a rush.

"Bye." I said hanging up.

After my phone call with Chris I went upstairs to my room and turned my music up really loud. I didn't even know my mom had came home from work until I heard a knock on my door. I turned my music down and let her in. She asked how my hand was and told me to come downstairs. 

I followed her downstairs and I couldn't believe what I saw. It was my brother. My brother and I have a very good relationship.  People would think we are best friends not brother and sister. I ran over to him and gave him a great big hug.

"Well I can tell someone missed me." He said smiling. I'm so happy he's here. I don't know how because he's busy with college but that doesn't matter. He's here now.

"What happened to your hand Marie?" He asked concerned. I took him up to my room and told him everything. Even about mom's boyfriend. He couldn't believe it. But he couldn't do anything about it because he still had one more semester of college left.

"If this keeps happening let me know. And after I'm done with my last semester, I'll try my best to get custody of you. Ok?" I nodded my head and gave him a big hug.

I know what you might be think. Your a junior in high school aren't you old enough to live by yourself. Well the answer is no. I'm only 15 turning 16 soon. I skipped a year. When I was supposed to be a freshman I was a sophomore instead. That's part of the reasons why I get bullied so much. Because I'm smart.

I fall asleep happy tonight. First time in a long time. Connor was here. And as long as Connor is here mom's boyfriend won't try anything.
