Where The Rainbow Ends

Chapter 18

POV: Anita Johnson.

Monday, fresh energy to start a new week.

Nick and I had a short conversation about our favourite recalls of the weekend. Nick's favourite was the whole weekend, hearing him tell me that it excites when mom is happy made Monday greater. Mom's joy brings joy to anyone around her. Well my most favourite moment was sleeping with her, It's been a while. I used to sleep with her when I had the scariest nightmares. I sometimes lied about them just to sleep with her, It felt really good.

Nick pulled over on the Forest Hills High packing lot.

"Have a great day buddy" I said.

"Thank you sis, I love you" He said. I smiled and went a different direction. So Nick just told me that he loves me with a serious face, Awww my favorite dumb ass.

I walked confidently down the hallway but still felt the stares. Well I have learnt that people will always be watching and/or talking whether I am doing good or not.

People will always notice the oddness in everything. I stood at my locker and took my books. People's eyes were still glued on me, oh dear people I am so not in that mood! I shut the locker door and hurried to my newly forged spot 'The stairs'. I sat there and buried my eyes on my phone.

"Hi!" The voice was manly and pretty familiar.

My eyes moved from my phone to where I heard the voice. I think Satan escaped from hell and stood before me.

"Hello River." I replied.

"I knew I'll find you here..." he said and took a sit next to me.

I kept quiet and could hear my heartbeat quicken it's pace. I didn't notice I was nervous, I started breathing really hard, I felt like I just ran a marathon or something similar. What the fuck?!

"Anita! Are you okay?" He asked and touched my arm. Under his palm my skin crawled. His touch felt toxic. I took a deep breath and stood up.

"Yeah... Yeah I am okay!" I said.

"Wait! Please don't leave... I am sorry. Please don't give up on me. I need you Anita." He spoke in the most decent tone.

I took a step back and looked at him straight in the eyes.

"River Norman..." I smiled.

"Unlike all the girls you had your way into, I didn't follow you to your dan instead you invited yourself into my life pleading for help, stupidly... I agreed." I sighed.

"I don't regret it, but I do regret not telling you that I won't be writing the tests for you. You have to put in that extra mile because I won't do it for you. Suck your F and get the fuck away from me!"

I felt a lot better about myself, River is trash in a packet of muffins, You'll have to open to find what is inside.

"Um Anita... Thank you." He said.

I didn't even bother to turn. River is a complete asshole.

"Anita!" Someone else called.

I slowly turned and the persons arms wrapped around me. I used to cry in her arms gosh! Diana Freeman. I swallowed my pride and hugged her back. Maybe she wont be a bad luck carrier this time.

"How have you been?" I asked.

She laughed but I could see that it hasn't been good at all.
