Ryland's POV

This 'Shawn' person left me with nothing. I feel like something bad happened. Ughh why do I always want to know what going on with people. It isn't like I'm his parent, ughh. I have some issues to deal with. I moved here to get away from my ex boyfriend, my ex was abusive. Yes he was charming don't get me wrong. It's like some abusive relationships they draw you in with you thinking oh this might actually be the guy for me. They start out by being nice but then start being abusive, now this wasn't just mental it was also physical. To this day I still have bruises. We moved here about a week ago. I didn't even tell him I was moving and if you're wondering yes, I am gay. Because of that relationship I have horrible trust issues. This makes it hard for me to make friends or talk to anyone, especially the school 'bad boy', Shane Lee Yaw. Now Shane was your typical bad boy. Wears leather, gets kicked out of class mostly everyday, and bullies kids, from what I hear. Before you even say it yes I know, shouldn't listen to rumors but some of these are true he is in 5 out of 7 of my classes. He only gets kicked out of one of the classes we have together, science.

From my old relationships I have discovered some bad things that I can't stop doing, it's like an addiction. I have gotten some questions on why I don't eat at home or at school. My answer for school is " I'm still full from breakfast' and my answer for home is ' I eat a lot at school' do they believe it yes, they do. I have developed a eating disorder because my ex boyfriend called me fat and ugly for the longest time, literally our whole relationship.
