In Another Life

First Day

Valentina P.O.V

Present day~

"Hey Callie." I say stalking to her locker. My legs burned and my wrists. I was in a sweater with jeans and it was hot out.

"Why are you in a sweater?" She laughs shaking her head.

"I thought it was suppose to be cold today." I lie knowing it was the end of May.

"So it's basically the end of our high school experience, I thought why not ditch today." She states closing her locker.

"I can't, I have a big test today." I genuinely say sighing.

I watch Dylan looking over at us with a hard expression. He was talking with his friends and he engaged and disengaged.

"Your so head over heels in love with him." Callie laughs rolling her eyes.

"I have to get to class." I say after the bell rings saving me from this conversation. It was true I did love him, but I didn't love what he did to me.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath in as I walked in the classroom. Boys looked at me like I was a whore and the girls looked at me like I'm a bitch. No one really agreed with me and Dylan's relationship, like my parents.

My parents didn't even want to look at me. They knew what had happen with his family and him having charges, but I swore he wasn't like that. I guess I was wrong.

"Hey Valentina right?" A boy with thick curly black hair asked.

"Yeah I am." I smile nodding my head. Even when people thought differently about me I'm nice to them. I didn't judge them like they judge me.

"I'm Luca." He smiles putting his hand out. I looked down at his hand for a second and proceeded to think about how he didn't know me or what "I've done" so far.

"You have a beautiful-." He tried to say, but Dylan like the overprotective boyfriend he is stopped him.

"Don't think about finishing that sentence." He interrupts putting his hand on my shoulder gently. I looked down at the ground and felt silenced just then.

"Dylan chill." One of his basketball friends announce laughing.

"I'll see you babe." He said kissing my cheek and walking to his friend. They did there handshake that was on the regular.

I turned my head to see Dylan watching me from the corner along with his friend in his seat watching me. I quickly turned my head and smiled at Luka turning my head I'm front of me. What could get worst?

******^^****

"Shiva you stole my fucking fry?!" Callie yells jumping up at trying to get it back. I chuckle looking down at my apple and water.

"So this Friday is you and Dylan's third anniversary." Shiva squeals taping her feet on the ground.

"You act like its so important." I crease my eyebrows leaning my head on my hand.

"Why the change of heart? You were excited like a few days ago." She points out flipping her hair back, so she can put a chicken nugget in her mouth.

"I haven't had a change of heart. I guess when your in a relationship like me and him, you don't really see the years you've been together." I smile believing my lie I just told. Of course I see the years and I'm weak. I'm not as strong as my mom taught me to be or thought I would be.

Once I said that in my brain Dylan walked by and nodded his way for me to follow him. I quickly turned my head.

"I have to go to the bathroom." I announce grabbing my black plain book bag.

I didn't let them say anything before I ran to the bathroom. Someone grabbed my arm before I got to to pass the lockers.

"Hey what's the rush?" Luca asks smiling down at me. Dear god he was gorgeous. No I can't say that I'm with Dylan.

"Sorry." I apologize has he lets my arm go. I looked down at the floor awkwardly trying not to stare into his eyes.

"No reason to be sorry pretty girl." He flirts stepping closer in his white vans and tucking a piece of hair behind my ear.

This caused me to look up at him. He was absolutely crazy for hitting on me when he knows I have a boyfriend.

"I'll see you later." He smirks ruffling his hair winking at me before he walks to the cafeteria.

From the corner of my eyes I see Dylan cross his arms with an angry expression leaning against the lockers.

I gulp down the dry lump in my throat. I watch has he slowly takes his eyes from following Luka to me. He just looks angry at me.

"We're going home." He announces putting his foot to the ground.

"Your going to wish that never happened." He says walking to me. Once he's in my face he grabs ahold of my throat he pushes me hard against the lockers.

"Your not going to be able to walk for a week and then some. I don't give a fuck if your awake or fucking breathing, I'm going to fuck you." He whispers pushing his knee between my legs.

"I'm going to kill you."
