Defeating My battles {Waterloo road}

Charlee walked into work and I to the staffroom. She looked to Christine and rolled her eyes as she saw her sitting in the corner. Charlee could tell hah she was drunk and out of it. Charlee asked over to the sink and sighed as she grabbed glass of water and sighed as she walked over to Christine and handed it to her "drink it, you'll need it if you want to keep your job" Charlee spat as Christine looked to her and frowned "don't patronise me Charlee, I am still your mother" Christine said as Charlee looked to her and rolled her eyes "I'd hardly call you that would you? I raised myself and Connor. Your an embarrassment and nothing else" Charlee spat as Christine looked to her and slapped her as Charlee held her cheek and looked to her in shock "and your are a mess, the girl who starved herself and forces herself to be sick because she can't have mummy's approval. That's right I know and your pathetic" she spat as Charlee looked to her with tears in her eyes and shock her head.

Charlee turned around and frowned as she saw tom who was standing there and looking at her. She didn't know how much he had heard and she was scared as she didn't want to scare him off. Christine walked out of the room as Charlee walked over to the kitchen. She had her back to Tom and she didn't know how to face him. He walked over to her and smiled as he placed his hands on her hips and smiled as he looked to her and smiled as he kissed the top of her head "she slapped you are you going" "I'm fine" "why did she do it" tom asked as Charlee looked to him and smiled "because she is a mess" Charlee said as she walked off.

Charlee walked onto the staff toilets and sighed as she looked to her reflection. She ran her hands through her hair and sighed. She hated what she saw and she hated what she was doing but she also knew that she couldn't stop herself. Charlee walked onto a cubical and bent down onto her knees as she forced herself to be sick. Once she was finished being sick. She sat on the floor and pulled her knees to her chest as she started to cry. Charlee couldn't help but feel like a pathetic failure. She felt as if everything Christine had said about her was right and she nothing but a mess.

Charlee sat in her classroom and smiled to herself as Tom walked in. He walked over to her and smiled as he wrapped an arm around her and hugged her close and smiled as he kissed her head "your not yourself are you sure your okay" he asked as she looked to him and smiled "I'm fine it's just one of those days" she lied as he looked to her and smiled as he leant in and kissed her. Charlee looked to hi and sighed to herself. She was worrying that she was falling for tom and nothing scared her more.
