Chapter 8

A few days after our photo shoot thingy we all posted the photos. Obviously we didn't post any of the photos with me and Daniel but Caspary did.

At first I didn't mind because it did look cool but I did get a lot of hate. Of course I deal with some hate on the daily but this was the worst it has ever been.

After weeks and weeks of getting constant hate I felt truly defeated. I was just so tried of being labeled a slut or undeserving or any other bad name.

I decided to go on a run even though it was a little chilly. I just had to get out of the house, especially because I felt really gross from crying in bed all day.

I plucked up my courage, ready to face the outside world. I put on some leggings and a t-shirt and start jogging. I wasn't jogging anywhere in particular, I was just planning to figure that out on the go.

After a few minutes I reached the park with a trail that I could jog through but of course it started raining really hard.

I felt so defeated that I didn't even bother going to an undercover area. I just sat on a bench, buried my head in my hands and cried.

I didn't even care if I go sick or caught a cold. I just didn't care anymore. I tried doing one thing today and it went wrong. I didn't even care that people were judging me, I've been judged enough already.

"Ellie?" I hear someone call out.

I quickly rub my eyes and look up. I see Zach jogging over to me with an umbrella.

"Ellie what are you doing? Are you okay?" He says, standing next to me holding the umbrella over my head.

"Im....." I try to tell him that I'm okay but I'm not okay.

I start crying again.

"Oh no" he says, looking panicked.

"Umm here, you must be freezing" Zach Says, taking off his jacket and wrapping it around my shoulders. He pulls me off the bench and puts his arm around my shoulder, leading me to his car. The whole way he's telling me that's it's going to be okay.

"I'm so so sorry Zach" I say to him, once I'm inside the car.

"No no, don't be. Are you feeling okay?" He asks nervously.

"I'm just...well I feel stupid now but I've been getting a lot of hate" I say slowly.

"Hey hey, it's not stupid. I know people tell you to just ignore it but it sucks. It really does." Zach says understandingly.

"Yeah, and I've just been feeling really unconfident and undeserving and I just wanted to go for a jog but it started raining and I just feel like I can't do anything" I say, the words spilling out of me quickly.

"Hey hey hey," Zach says softly "you are one of the most kindest people I know. You are so caring and helpful and awesome and other people don't know that because they don't know you. Not only that, you have an incredible voice with amazing songs AND you're incredibly beautiful"

"Wow Zach Thank you. I really needed to hear that" I say.

"Of course, I really meant it." Zach says.

We sit in the car silently as I wiped my tears away. I steady my breathing and only then do I realize I was holding zachs hand so tightly his knuckles were white.

"Oh my sorry" I say letting go.

"Oh no it's okay" he says, scratching the back of his head.

"Did I hurt you?"

"No no, I'm fine. let's get you home" he says with a small smile.

We sit in a comfortable silence throughout the drive to my house. When we get there Zach insists on walking me to the front door so I let him.

"Hey, thanks for everything" I say, before opening the door.

"No problem. Just call me anytime okay? So I won't have to find you crying in a park bench" he says with a laugh.

"Hahah well thanks for being a good friend" I say before stepping inside.

"Yeah, friend" he says, sighing and turning around.

When I close the door i realize I still have his jacket. I open the door to give it back but when I do he's gone. I guess I'll just give it back the next time I see him.
