Piercing My Heart

Chapter 4: Midnight

*Dakota's POV*

Today was the best day at school in years.

Sutton got kicked out of his 'clique' for defending me. Was I really that bad of a person that people could be shut down for hanging out with me?

Although I am still confused about me and Sutton's relationship. He didn't officially ask me out or vice versa. So are we dating or not?

Anyway, he sat at my lunch table. For once it wasn't just me. He bought me a lunch, but I refused to eat. I told him I wasn't hungry but I'm too fat to be eating so much food.

Sutton was so sweet and adorable. I don't think that he will be ale to put up with me for too long though. I'm really mean and have close to no sympathy for people. How am I suppose to treat him right? I feel bad for telling him how I feel. I didn't deserve him and he didn't deserve my horrible personality.

The differences between me and him could go on into infinite space.

He's amazing at everything. I'm horrible at everything.

He's hot. I'm ugly.

He's in shape. I'm fat.

He has a safer enviorment. Mine's abusive.

He's smart. I'm dumb.

I could go on for years.

These are the things I think about when I'm lost in this infinite thought. But I always seems to get interrupted.

"Heeeyy!" Sutton snuck up behind me in detention and said slyly.

"Sutton~! stop!" I whined.

We were both in detention for running out of the school. Plus he had In School Suspension for beating up Drake.

"Why should I?" Sutton smirked.

"Because you're annoying me!" I pouted.

"It's fun though." His grin got bigger and bigger as he tried to aggitate me more.

I gave him a stare that meant stop and I think he got the picture because he quickly pressed his lips to mine. He pulled away and looked me in the eyes "It's fun."

The timer went off which meant we were dismissed from the room. We left without question and began walking. He always walked me home but today he asked the stupidest thing he could've.

"Hey can I come inside?"

I froze solid.

What could he possibly expect in my house? He knows my dads abusive. Did he already forget? What was his problem? What does he want from me?

I was once again snapped out of my thoughts. "...Dakota!" Sutton shook my shoulders.

"What? Huh?" I questioned. "You didn't answer my question..." he replied.

"Uh... Why do you want to?" I asked shakily. Sutton shrugged, "I don't know I just wanna see your place."

"Um... I guess it's okay if you come in for a second..." I started to walk towards the door and wrapped my shaky hand around the door knob. I opened the door as quietly as I could but it echoed through the house and I cringed.

I heard footsteps and my eyes widened.

"Well well well... Who is this with little Dakota?" My father said.

I peeked over my shoulder and saw Sutton reach out to shake my fathers hand.

'Sutton you idiot!'
