|Calum|-during Reagan's arrival

I quickly make my way down the halls of the school trying to get out of crowds and find some of my friends, I turn down the hallway but immediately stop when I saw Reagan.

God she's such a slut, I mean the way Ashton's arms are around her waist like that makes me feel uncomfortable, not that I care it's just-she shouldn't let him do that.

I cleared my thoughts after that "Long time no see Reagan" I began hoping this wouldn't be awkward, what the hell am I saying of course it's going to be awkward, I mean I did ya know beat her up literally like everyday after school last year but its whatever, it felt good to see little miss I'm so perfect suffer for a bit, I guess.

After a few seconds Reagan turned around and Ashton let his hands fall to his sides. "Hey Cal" he said smiling, "Yeah, hey" Reagan said with a fake smile. It was like she was nervous or something.

"So what's been going on with you Calum?" She asked. "Oh um, nothin much just band practice and writing some new songs, you?" I said. "Same, just working on soccer and looking at colleges and stuff like that." "If you ever need any help with tricks or just general stuff you could call me sometime and maybe I could help you, I mean if you wanted to, you could use a little work on your defense skills." "Uh yeah, I'll um-I'll um think about that and get back to you okay?" She stuttered."Cool." was all that I could think of.

Shit! Why did I even say that, now she will probably hate me even more than before, not that I care though, she deserved it right?

|Reagan|

God! He's such a prick! I hate him!

First I thought he was actually being nice to me and was willing to get over what ever feelings he had towards me in the past to make him beat up. But nope. He just always has to throw something negative into my face. Well you know what I'm not gonna let him get to me, I'll just hang with Ashton.

After school was over, it being the first day, we didn't really have any homework so I decided to head down to the soccer field and kick some. My stepmom wouldn't mind. Yeah I said stepmom, my mom passed away when I was 7 of cancer and my dad just works a lot that I barely get to see him. But I don't complain my stepmom is the sweetest and she makes my dad happy so why not?

I got to the field around 4:17 and it was now 6:28. I should probably head home now so I can get ready to watch the new Grey's Anatomy tonight. I was taking of my cleats when I heard some noise behind me. "Fuck" I whispered to myself. Out of all the people in the world to come to the field right now while it was just me here ALONE it just had to be fucking Calum Hood ugh. Someone shoot me please.....or better yet shoot him. I know it's mean to say but- " Hey, Reagan" Calum said pretty slowly and I got very worried. My whole body started shaking and I wanted to leave now. "Uh, hey Calum" I said, my breath shaky. "Wanna kick some with me?" He asked. Um hell no. "I should really head home sorry, it's getting late." Right as I was turning away I heard running and was starting to walk faster but before I knew it Calum's hand was wrapped around my wrist yanking me towards him. "Ow! Get your nails out of my skin!" I slightly yelled at him. "What did you just say to me?" He said with an evil chuckle. "Nothing." I mumbled. "Well, I'm pretty sure you did." He paused with a more serious tone. "You know what I'm sick and tired of this attitude and it's been one fucking day!" He screamed at me. "Well I'm so sorry that you're so full of yourself and that you're such a fuck up!" Shit, why did I say that. "That's it." He said angrily and then just slapped me in the face.

Nothing's changed I thought as I cupped my cheek that was now burning of how hard he hit me.

"Now I'll ask you this again what did you say?" He asked. "I'm sorry." Was all came out besides a tear. "Good, so same time and same place tomorrow so we can continue what I never really started?" He asked. "What do you mean?" I was a little confused but then he raised his eyebrows at me. "Oh." He meant beat me "Ok, I guess." I said. He finally let me go and before I drove away he said. "Oh and Reagan" he paused... "Don't even think about hiding because if you do, the next time we're alone I'll make it worse." "I-I won't" I stuttered. Then as I drove home I got a text from Calum. It read...

"I wasn't lying about what I said before you left so you better be there or else..."

-Calum

It may not seem that threatening but if you knew him like I did you would be terrified.

I got home and saw a note on the fridge,

"Might be home late, business meeting, dinner's in the fridge love you Cindy and Dad❤️"

I ate dinner took a shower and when I stepped out I saw a fresh bruise on my cheek and scratch on my jaw. Ouch.

I watched Grey's Anatomy then decided to go to sleep. All I thought about was how tomorrow was going to be awful like before but then soon fell into a peaceful sleep.
