Living With The Pain

Surprise

  I opened my eyes and sat up

Is today Friday?

I think so.

God knows what day it is.

   I look around my room and looks at my prosthetic on my nightstand before getting up to do my morning routine. I put on a black long sleeve shirt with a black short sleeve shirt with a green dragon on it, I tucked that in to black ripped jeans and a black and silver circled belt. I put on white ankle socks and slipped into my black shoes.

  I put a silver chain on the loops of my belt and looked at myself in the mirror. I tied my hair up into a ponytail and grabbed my prosthetic off of my nightstand, clicking it on. I grabbed my phone and my bag and walked out my room. Sal and I headed to school.

After class I was carrying my books to my locker when someone ran past me, making me drop all my stuff. "HEY! WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING IDIOT!" I yelled as I squatted down to pick up my books. "Sorry, Scar," I looked up to see Travis helping me with my books. "Oh...Hey Travis," I stood up once I got some books off the ground, then Travis handed me the rest of my books.

"Why were you running?" I asked. "Uh...Campbell was chasing me because I was talking to Sally-Face," Travis explained and I rolled my eyes.

This girl's beginning to be a problem.

"Trying to make a move?" I asked and Travis turned a bright red color so I laughed. "It's ok, Travis. I don't judge. I'm bi, so I mean, I kinda get how you feel," I explained. "Really?" Travis asked. I nodded,"Yeah. That's why I'm cool with it." Travis smiled.

*Sal's POV*

"Ash! Why'd you scare him off?" I looked at Travis who was now running down the hallway. "He was bothering you," Ash shrugged. "He wasn't-" I sighed and shook my head,"Nevermind. Anyway. Uh..." "oh no. Look! Now he's talking to Scar!" Ash said and I looked over to see Travis and Scar talking and smiling. I had a weird feeling in my stomach. A knot that wouldn't go away.

*Ashley's POV*

Sal and I exchanged a look and then walked over them. "Traaavis!" Sal yelled. "Uh oh..." Scar said quietly and the two of them turned to us. "May I help you, Saaaaally Face?" Travis asked. "Yeah. You can,"Sal said. "Leave Scar alone,"I added. "Guys, he isn't-" I cut Scar off,"Leave. Now." Travis just rolled his eyes,"whatever. See you later, Scar." With that, he walked off.

*Scar's POV*

I sighed quietly. "Hey Ash, uh," Sal paused,"do you want to come over later?" I looked at Sal with disbelief.

You have GOT to be kidding me, Sal.

Ashley just smiled,"Of Course! I'd love to!" I rolled my eyes and walked over to my locker, doing my locker routine and slamming it shut. I banged my head against my locker three times.

Kill me now.

Kill me now.

Kill.

Me.

Now.
