Testing waters

Ch.21 what happened that night?

Savannah's POV: I woke up my head pounding and throbbing, "Ow" I mumbled and stated to sit up. "Sav your awake!" Ryan yelled and turned facing me from the tv, "not so loud" I said coldly grasping my head in my hands. "Sorry babe" he said and walked over sitting on the edge of the bed. "I'm never going to a party again"I said. He dug through his dresser before throwing me a t shirt and some sweats of his that were obviously way to big, "your still in party clothes might me a little more comfy" he said and walked our of the room.

I sighed and crawled out from under the warm fluffy sheets and took off my uncomfortable dress removed all my jewelry and threw on the t shirt and sweat pants. I trudged over to a long mirror that was on his wall I looked horrible in his big clothes but didn't care. My makeup from last night was still on but didn't look to bad so I just decided to run my fingers through my hair and pull it into a pony tail and plopped down on the couch in the corner of his room. I heard three nocks at the door. "It's ok come in" I said and he opened the door smiling holding two plates of food. "My mom made breakfast" he said and placed one on a little coffee table next to the couch. "Wow thanks!" I cheered but immediately regretted it when my head started to throb even more. "Awww baby" he said and came over to me rubbing my back. "Don't worry it will feel better" he said smiling. I nodded and dug in to the waffles and bacon with fresh fruit.

We spent the whole day being lazy couch potatoes and watching really old horror movies. "I should go home, school night" I said sighed he nodded. "I'll drive you home" he said smiling and we grabbed my things before rushing out of the house into the car. We finally reached my house and we said our good eyes before I went into my house and took a shower.

I threw on my Pajamas and out my hair into a brain letting it sit on my shoulder and collapsed onto my bed until I was wrapped into a deep sleep. I woke up sighing shutting off my alarm clock, Monday was always the hardest. I got dressed and did my light makeup before grabbing my bag and I heard Ryan honking outside. I rolled my eyes and ran out of the house into his car. "Hey beautiful" he said smiling I started to blush. "Hey handsome" I said smiling back.

And then we arrived at school. I felt like I had a pretty good weekend even though I didn't quite remember the party but all I really wanted to do was sit at home watching movies with Ryan. It's where I felt the safest. "Savvy!" I heard someone say excitedly from behind me. I turned so I was facings whoever was talking to me then realized it was Bella. "Hey um Bella, why are you um talking to me?" I asked confused. "You don't remember?" I shook my head. "We totally bonded at the party! We danced the whole night together girl come on you don't remember?" She said still smiling. "No I don't" I said plainly. "We should hang out soon ok?" She said. I didn't answer but watched her prance down the hallway.

What else happened that night? I mean I knew some things were kinda fuzzy but I feel like I lost some time there. I shuddered at the thought, I rushed into my room realizing I was late and the teacher looked at me with disgust. "Savannah why are you late?" She asked. I couldn't say I was talking to someone come on Sav think fast, "I er..ummm" I stood their with my eyes wide. "Detention!" She snapped. I nodded and made my way back to my seat ignoring the whispers and snickering of the other students.

The entire time the teacher kept looking at me as I slouched back in my chair. When the class was finally over and followed behind the other students until the teacher stopped me. "Savannah I think there's something wrong are you ok?" She asked concerned. "I'm fine I was just late that's all" I lied. I couldn't risk letting anyone see the cuts or even know about the bullies I would be sent to a therapist and that would make things about a hundred times worse. "Ok Savannah but if you need to you can talk to me" she said. "Ok" I answered and rushed out of the classroom.
