Cathy POV
"Oh my gosh! Cathy what happened to your cheek?!" Jane exclaims, I look at her in fear,

"I don't know what you're talking about." I say

"Cathy. Why the hell do you have a bruise on your cheek that looks like a handprint?" She asks leaning closer to look at it. I lean back

"It's nothing Jane." I say, she carefully turns my face to the side to look at the bruise,

"Cathy, do your parents hurt you?" She asks, grabbing my hand holy fuck she's holding my hand. Jane is concerned about me and she's holding my hand.

"No." I lie

"Okay. But are you okay?" She asks

"Yeah, yeah. I'm fine." I say and we continue to talk.

"Weirdest dream you've ever had?" I ask. She starts laughing.

"When I was little and to this day I get this weird dream about me going to the beach with my family and I'm like 2 or 3 and I end up finding Ariel from The Little Mermaid and I didn't want anyone to find out so I take this container and I fill it up with water and then I put Ariel in it. Then everyone's asleep and I take Ariel and I hold her over the toilet cause I thought she died and I drop her in and then she was like 'Jane no, no' and I'm crying cause I feel bad and then I flush the toilet." She finishes and I start laughing

"What? That's so weird." I say and she starts laughing with me.

"I know. I don't know why I get it." She says laughing. We ended up really weird stories, but funny weird.

2 months later
So Jane is my best friend and my crush. My mom and dad have been trying to get me together with Henry, I had told Jane that I was lesbian and she told me she was too. My mom and dad have been jerks and they won't leave me alone.

"Bye Cathy we love you, remember this time we will be away for two weeks." Dad says and I nod. I hear there car drive away and I pull out my pride stuff and start hanging it everywhere. My phone started ringing, Jane. I quickly put stuff over my bruises and answer the call.

"Heyyyyy." She says

"Whaz up?" I say in a weird voice

"The ceiling." She says and I laugh "what are your doing?" She asks and I set her on my nightstand.

"Putting up my pride stuff. My parents are gone for two weeks. Wanna come over?" I ask and she nods

"Mom!" She yells and pauses for a second "I'm going to Cathys!" She yells, then looks back at me "am I spending the night?" She asks and I nod "yeah!" She yells again and starts grabbing stuff, "okay I'll be over in like five minutes." She says

"Okie. Byeeeee." I say

"See ya see ya wouldn't wanna be ya." She says

"Yeah you really wouldn't want to be me." I say and she laughs again and I hang up. I grab my sweatshirt to cover up the bruises I had. I hear a car pull up, Janes car. I feel something brush up against my leg, Meadow, she's my cat, we got her 3 weeks ago and she was a cutie. I pick her up and I walk downstairs and open the door.

"My baby!" She yells and grabs Meadow.

"Well Hi Jane." I say offended,

"Hi Cathy." She says and hugs me, Meadow climbed on to Janes shoulder. "I'm telling you, you should have named her Polly." She says and I shake my head no, she walks inside taking her shoes off and carefully walks to my room to put her stuff away.
