~It's well worth it!~

Today was Monday, I'll go back to school and everyone will see what I did, of course, they won't know it was me...

I got dressed, that was after I re bandaged my arms I grabbed my bag and made my way downstairs. I went straight to the stove top, feeling like some bacon and eggs for dinner.

Mom always had to leave early for work, the place she works at opens pretty early so she's always gone before I wake up, unless she has a day off.

Harrison, Blake and Xavier walked into the kitchen, Blake and Xavier both looked tired as hell while Harrison was ready for his work day.

I'll have to ask him to make me some clothes...

Oh! I don't think I've ever mentioned that Harrison owns a fashion company, he designs clothes, jewellery, accessories like handbags, even hats! That's what has made him so rich... I wonder if he'd make me some clothes...

"Morning Cooper!"

"Morning Harrison." I responded, not exactly as excited as he was. I ate my bacon and eggs, playing a game on my phone while I did. "Why do you even have that phone? I swear you barely text anyone on it." Xavier said, I just shrugged. "Music, that's all I need it for. Besides, it's was my dad's." I replied, and that was the truth.

This had been dad's phone, so over half of the pictures were of Jax and I when we were younger, I hadn't really used the camera until Felicity came along. Then it was bombarded with pictures of her and I, then of Damian as well. I still have the glorious photos of Damian's face... I think it was 203 pictures?

"Well why have you kept it?" I looked up at him with one of those 'for real?!' Looks, you know the kind where your whole face kinda just scrunches up... yeah that's the face I had.

"W-What did I just say?! It was my dad's, that's why I kept it! Just like how I kept this necklace!" I said, showing Jax's necklace that was hanging around my neck. I know Xavier isn't that stupid, I guess he's just taking the piss out of me. "Yeah but you don't see me with any of my mom's stuff do you?" He replied back, I saw Harrison and Blake stiffen slightly.

"There's a difference... you understand that, right?"

"Yeah, you had a dad that left, I had a mom that left." He deadpanned, oh that's it. "You know what the difference is? The parent I lost actually wanted to be apart of my family! Unlike yours who fucking left!! So if you want to compare my dad to your mother, go ahead but I promise you if you dare try and say that my dad didn't want to be here, I will fucking hurt you. Because unlike your mother, my dad had a reason to go, and that was because of some stupid ass fucking dog jumping in front of his car. My father didn't run away from his family." I spat out, growls were practically leaving my mouth.

"I'm sorry if I offended any of you with what I said, especially you Harrison but you really did piss me off. Never compare my father to your mother, ever. Because my father actually loved me." I said, feeling tears coming to my eyes, I hated it when someone talked shit about my father.

"Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to school to actually get an education." I picked my bag up, slinging it over my shoulder as I walked out of the front door, slamming it shut. I placed my bluetooth earphones in my ears, turning on my music as I closed my eyes, trying to blink away the tears. "The tears aren't worth it, the tears aren't worth it." I muttered to myself, wiping away the stray tears that fell.

I'm so sick of crying, day in day out, I'm sick of sadness being the only thing I feel... like actually feel.

I turned my music up, drowning out the outside world as I placed a newly lit cigarette between my lips. I took long drags, letting the smoke fill me before blowing it out. I found myself walking to Damian's house, my body so used to the path. I waited out the front, Damian came out seconds later, a can of Mountain Dew in his hands. "Want one?"

"I'm good." I replied, Damian shrugged his shoulders as we made our way to school. I could tell Damian wanted to ask something, probably about my mood... I'm not sure if I could trust him though... I can't trust anyone...

We made it to school, Damian and I had been silent the entire time. Once we got to the school, we made our way to our lockers before heading to Art. Miss Nelson was already in the art room, looking through a few sheets of whatever was on her desk. She looked up as she heard us, a small smile growing over her face. "Hey boys, as much as I'm happy to see you, this morning we have to go to the gym however... principal said." Miss Nelson said with a sigh.

She stood up, walking with us as we made our way to the gym. As we were walking, a voice behind us caught our attention. "Excuse me! Uh hi, my name is Amelia! I'm the new girl and I'm looking for Cooper?" She said, I nodded my head, giving her a small wave. "Oh thank goodness, I was told you'd be helping me out?"

"Yup, I did say I would, this morning we have to go to the gym so just follow us and then we'll go from there okay?" Amelia nodded, making her way over to us. Damian looked at me with an eyebrow raised, "I'll explain later." I said. We walked into the gym, I had to hide the smirk as I saw the drawings on the floor, the principal looking at it in rage and awe.

Once everyone was seated, the principal stood up, making his way over to his little stand. "Now, I'm sure you've all seen the drawings on the gymnasium floor, as good as they are, this is vandalism. We do not promote such acts in this school! I would like whoever did so, to please come up and just tell us now, it will save everyone a lot of trouble."

I could see everyone staring at the art, or rather, my art. I once again hid the smirk as I saw a lot of people looking at it in awe. "Come on guys! Don't make this hard on everyone! If who ever did this doesn't come up now, there will be consequences for the whole school." The principal said, some people looked around, trying to figure out who could be guilty.

The principal let out a sigh, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Since no one is coming forward, double work and homework for the next week." The principal said, nearly everyone groaned in response, whining how it 'wasn't fair'!

Suck it up bitches!

This is what you fuckers get...
