Anna's POV

It was about about 5 am and I was crying softly. I had been up for an hour from a nightmare and now I was just crying because I was sick of everything. I wanted to just be able to make a sandwich and eat it and not have to think about the calories and everything.

A couple of hours later, I could hear James and mum downstairs. James is going back to school today and I wish I could be there for him. I wipe my face and go to the bathroom to splash it with water. I go downstairs and Mum and James look at me when they hear me.
"Morning love."
I nod and smile. James gets up from the kitchen bench and wordlessly hugs me. He holds me there for a few minutes and I just breathe in his scent, it was comforting. I let go so he can finish his cereal.

"Anna? You coming?" Mum asks. I shake my head and hug James again.
"You be ok. I need you to be."
I nod. He and mum get in the car and leave.

I go back upstairs to my room and just lay on my bed. I listen to some music but I wasn't really paying attention. I didn't feel like doing anything, I couldn't even be bothered to speak.

From mum: I'm just going to the shops and then I have a few errands to do. Will you be ok alone?
To mum: yea I'll be fine, have fun

I scrolled through Twitter when I saw a thread about me. I clicked on it thinking that it would something bad and at this point, I didn't care.

Anna's Far Too Young to Die is a remake of Panic! At the Disco's Far Too Young to Die. The lyrics are the exact same. Wouldn't Anna need permission from Brendon Urie to release it??

I actually laughed. What? I smiled and read through the replies.

She-???
Anna URIE you know Brendon URIE'S daughter?
Are you serious? Or not? I don't know

I screenshot it and send it to dad.

From dad: ahaha that's crazy
To dad: I know
From dad: how are you?
To dad: I'm ok
From dad: are you sure?
To dad: I miss you
From dad: I miss you too darling

"Hello?" I hear Pete say. I go downstairs and open the door to let him in.
"Good morning Anna."
I nod and smile.
"You ok?"
I nod and turn around to walk back upstairs.
"Get dressed please."
I turn and look at him and shake my head. I didn't feel like getting out of my pjs.
"Come on Saint wants to see you."
"Isn't he at school?"
"I'm taking him now, he wanted me to come pick you up first."
I smile a little. I nod and go get changed. I throw on a hoodie and jeans.

We get in his car once I check the door was locked and I had my keys. He drives us to his house where Saint and Pete's girlfriend was waiting for us.
"Anna!" Saint calls out cheerfully.
"Hello little mate." I smile.
"Are you coming to school with me?"
"I'm going to come with your dad to drop you off."
"Yay! Why aren't you at school?"
"I do school on my laptop." I explain as Pete pulls out of the driveway.
"Oh. Shouldn't you have your laptop then?"
"I'm not feeling to well today so I'm going to do it later."
"I hope you feel better soon."
"Me too bud. How's school?"
"It's ok."
"Do you have any friends?"
"Yeah! They're so fun."
"That's good."

"Alright kiddo we're at school now, I'll pick you up after school."
"Anna too?" He says hopefully and Pete and I laugh.
"If she's not busy."
"Please Anna?"
"Anything for you Saint."
"Yay!"
I laugh and we wave him off as he walks into the school. I look over at Pete, leaning back in the chair, and give a small smile.
"What would you like to do?" He asks. I shrug. "Breakfast?"
I shake my head.
"Gone back to not talking?"
I shrug, I was just exhausted mentally.
