Finding Promise (WATTYS 2017)

Chapter 3

I looked around my room it was a bit of a mess, my lamp was knocked over, the hinges on the door were coming off, my posters were ripped off and I had hole in my wall. What happened last night? I tried to think but I couldn't remember anything. I beat my hand in frustration crying out" Think ham, think!." until I gave up.

I felt something stir at the end of my bed, I  jumped out of the. I walked to the end of my bed with the lamp in hand. The thing had an olive skin color and red hair. The thing was Jarred!

It was funny he looked like a red headed guard dog sleeping at the end of my bed. He was curled in a ball, his back going up and down with his steady breath. He looked so peaceful, but I wasn't so that wouldn't be fair now would it. " Jarred." I whispered in his ear, he stirred slightly.

"Jarred." I did it again.

" Go away mom." he murmured in his sleep this made me smile.
" Jarred wake up!" I yelled in his ear and laughing. He snatched me up holding me and my arms by my side, it was getting tight, I didn't feel comfortable.

" Jarred  I have to go to school."I said pulling his arms from around me. " Me too I should get going, take care of yourself Hannah." "Will do captain." I said putting my hand to my forehead saluting him as he walked out the door. He smiled at me wearily.

I began to fix my bed when I remembered why I had woken up in the first place. I opened my window the morning air was warm it felt good against my cold skin. I saw Jarred leaving the house " Hey what happened last night?" He looked up at me smiling. " Lets just say I turned your room into a  fighting ring." He yelled up at me, I laughed as he walked away. I walked away to my dresser.

I tried squeezing some liquid foundation out of the bottle, only to the sound of air coming out instead of a brown liquid. I would have to go without it today. It was hot today so I decided to wear my green shirt that said " No turning back" in big black letters With brown shorts that went down to my knees. I walked to the door listening for noises of any kind. I didn't hear anything so I took this as a chance to dart out the door and not look back.

"Hey guys look the tramp came to school." I looked away from her not wanting to start a fight this morning. She and her group stepped in front of me" Did your pimp do that to you prostitute." Carly said pointing to my bruises. I was angry how could she call me a prostitute when she didn't even know the whole story.

" You know what," I yelled angrily " fuck you Carly." I was so mad I was sure she could see the the heat waves coming of my head. She smirked at me and whispered in my ear. " I don't have to, Christian did it for me."

Christian my old boyfriend who cheated on me with Carly. I thought of his favorite motto" Give it up or get dumped. He was standing to the side not showing any form of emotion, which was weird because he was always laughing. Carly and her group walked away the only person who stayed behind was Christian.

" Hey follow me." He said waving me around a corner. Why the hell would I follow him? I glared at him. "I have something very important to ask you." I still hesitated.

" please." there was that word again.

Thus word could make anybody do anything including me. I followed him around the corner.  The hallways were clear no one in sight. I was looking around the white halls Wheatly High. He grabbed my arm and pushed me in a corner.

" Have you changed your mind?" He asked me kissing my neck. "Christian get  off of me!" I yelled before  he pushed his tongue into my mouth. With one hand he held my hands up on the wall and slid his other up my shirt his hands were cold. I whimpered unable speak. His lips were crashing hard against my lips. I tried to pull away but he turned my face toward him and continued  I tried to kick him but his legs were pressed on mine so I couldn't.   I gave up.  Boom!

Someone had snatched him off of me into the lockers. I slid down onto the floor holding my face in my hands tears streaming down my face.

Why did this have to happen to me ?"Stay away from her!" he yelled at him.

" Alright  I'll stay away from her, for now." I looked up to see Christian shrug his jacket back on his shoulders and walk away . Jarred rocked me in gifts arms while I cried it felt weird to be held like this its been so long. "Jarred I want to go home."I said in a hushed voice. Okay I'll take you home." We stood up and walked out the emergency exit.
