I wake up to the amazing smell of bacon and pancakes. Blake is still asleep next to me. I lightly poke his chest, Blake groans. I poke his chest a few more times till he finally wake up.
"Skylar, what is it?" Blake asks in his morning voice. I point to the clock, Blake looks to the clock and jumps out of bed, he rushes to his closet, grabbing a shirt and a pair of black skinny jeans.
"Sky, get out of bed, we have to get ready for school." I roll over and close my eyes. "Skylar, come on. Do you want me to pick out your clothes for school?" I nod, not even caring.
"Here, hurry put these on. We need to get downstairs for breakfast." I slowly get out of bed and walk over to my bed and grab my clothes. I walk to the restroom and change as quickly as I can. I grab my flat iron and straighten my hair emo style. I grab all of my bracelets and put them on both my wrists.
"Skylar, hurry up. You barley have anytime for breakfast now," Matthew calls from downstairs. I take the stairs two at a time almost falling over the last step. I take my seat next to Chris and eat some of my breakfast, being careful not to eat to much, so I won't have to puke that much later.
When Blake and I walk into school many people ask me where I've been, why I haven't been in school, why Blake and I didn't come to school. Blake answers for me lying, saying that we were sick but we are better now. I look to Blake, why hasn't he been in school when I was gone, he has friends here while the only friend I have here is Kylie, I'm not complaining thought because she a great friend.
"Come on Sky, let's go and meet up with our friends," Blake actually thinks that his friends are my friends. Wow. They aren't my friends they are his, they just put up with me because I'm Blake's little brother and he will stop being friends with them if they tell him they don't like me, so they basically have to pretend to like me and I hate that.
"Skylar, your back." All of Blake's friends say. "How have you been?" 'Bryon asks moving his bangs out of his eyes. I smile and shrug my shoulders. Blake and his friends start to talk about something I really don't care about and , most likely hate.
I hear some light footsteps behind me then two hands cover my eyes. "Guess who," the cherry voice I have come to know oh so well says. I smile and turn around to see Kylie and her friends.
"Hey." "Hey Skylar. I missed you." "You saw me the other day." "I know, but still I missed you." "Awwwww." All of Kylie's friends say from behind her. "I need to ask you something, can you please come with me to the C building?" I nod and follow Kylie.
When we reach the C building I notice Kylie looks nerves, we stop in the middle of the hallway and Kylie smiles at me than at the ground nervously. I tip her chin up so she's looking up at me. "Is there something wrong?" "No, it's just... I'm really nerves about something." "Kylie, you are the most confident person I know." Kylie's smiles and takes a step away from me, this makes me really nerves.
"Skylar, will you be my boyfriend?" Kylie asks looking straight into my eyes and bites her bottom lip so hard it turns white. Wow, Kylie Richards wants me to be her boyfriend. She is the first girl to actually ask me to be her boyfriend unlike all the others who have said I'm their boyfriend because they liked me and knew I wouldn't say no because I don't talk. She will be my first girlfriend. My heart beats do fast and loud I bet everyone can hear it.
I nod, Kylie screams so loud as she jumps and hugs me so tight. Kylie smiles up at me, I return the smile and hug. We walk out of the C building with our fingers intertwined walking toward her first period class just as the bell rings for school to start.
"Bye Skylar, see you at break." I turn Kylie around so she's facing me, "Call me Sky." "Bye Sky," she says giggling. God that giggle it's like angels singing. I walk back to class, I can't help smiling just thinking that Kylie Richards is my first girlfriend. I can't believe it, Kylie could have chosen any other guy at this school mainly a popular one to be her boyfriend but she chose me, she really likes me.
"Hey what did Kylie want to take to you about?" Blake asks the she on I sit down in my seat. I can't help but smile, I can feel my cheeks hearing up. "Kylie, asked me to be her boyfriend." Blake's jaw drops to the floor. "What?" I ask afraid of Blake's answer. "I just, wow. She asked you out, she's really pretty, Sky. You totally deserve her." "Thanks Blake, that means a lot to me."
Maths is going by so slow, but today's lesson is really easy. I start to fell myself falling asleep. "Skylar Quinn!!" Mr.Final yells from the front of the class. I lift my head up, I rub my eyes feeling groggy.
"There is on sleeping in my class Mr. Quinn. Now go find a partner for today's assignment." I nod and look to see who doesn't have a doesn't have a partner. When people I this class learned that I am really smart when it comes to math they would always try to be my partner so they wouldn't have to do so much work, it Blake told them not to be my partner if all they were going to do was use me for my brain so no one came to me my partner. There are some girls asking Blake to be their partner but he says something to them, so they turn to someone else to be their Maths partner for today.
Blake waves his hand for me to go to where he is sitting. I sit by Blake and put my Maths packet on the desk. I start working on some of the harder problems first. In the corner of my eye I notice Blake is still on the first question, I look down at my packet, I'm on page four of five.
"Do you need help?" Blake lets out a sigh and nods. I take his packet, he hasn't even finished five of the problems. I slide his packet back on his desk and shake my head. "Sorry I just don't get it, it's hard for me. I just... Don't know how you get it." Finally by the end of class Blake has seven problems done out thirty.
"Sky are you going to hang out with our friends, or with Kylie?" "I don't know. Why do you want me to sit with you and your friends?"
Blake frowns his brow. "What so you mean my friends, they are our friends." "Blake, they are your friends not mine. My only friend here is Kylie." Just as Blake is about to say something when Kylie runs runs up to me and gives me a hug. "Hey Blake." Kylie says smiling and snuggling into my side. "Hey Kylie. well I'm going to meet up with my friends, I'll see you guys later, bye."
Kylie jumps in front of me smiling. "Let's go get something from the snack bar." I nod, we walk into the quad. People stare at us as we walk across campus. Kylie squeezes my hand gently. "Don't be nerves Sky, it's okay." I nod, we get some chips at the mini snack bar, on the way back we pass by Blake and his friends. The twins motion for us to sit with them at their tree.
"Hey Skylar and Kylie." The twins say in sync, I really hate when they do that. "Hey guys." Kylie says smiling at them. I wave and smile. "you guys want to sit with us till break is over?" Bryon asks. I look to Kylie, and shrug. "Yea, we will sit with you guys." Kylie sits down next to Blake forcing me to sit by David. Don't get me wrong I have nothing against David it's just I feel as if he hate me.
"So are you two dating?" Ginny asks before putting a couple of chips into his mouth. Kylie nods then looks over to me smiling, her cheeks are red she's so blushing. "You guys are a really cute couple." David says looking at both of us. "Thanks." Kylie says . "Now Blake here needs to get a girlfriend." The twins say nudging him. "I don't need one.n"your the only guy in the group that doesn't have one." "So what." Just then the bell rings saving Blake from being the center of attention.
When everyone leaves Lylie and I walk to her next class. "Why did Blake look upset when the twins were telling him he needs to get a girlfriend?" "I don't really know. He always has a girlfriend, so I don't know." "Do you think he's upset about you and I?" "I thought so a while ago, when we were just friends and flirting all the time but he said he wasn't and today when I to.d him we were dating he said he was happy for me." "Should we talk to him?" No, I'll talk to him in class." "Okay, bye."
When I get into English, Blake ignores me every way possible. "Okay, class today we will be working in groups of three." I tap on Blake but he pushes me hand off his shoulder. I sit in my desk and think about what I should write about for my opening paragraph fro my essay.
"Hey, we need one more person in our group, come on." I look up to see Sara and her best friend( side kick) Bethany. "What do you already have a group or what?" Sara says outing a hand on her hip to show she's upset that I haven't answered her question. I look up at them completely confused, why are they being so nice to ,e? I nod and walk with them over to where they were sitting.
"Okay, so we are going to do the essay paragraph on why texting is ruining society of the youth and why it shouldn't be encouraged. Sara says while pointing to the grading rubric. I nod and show they my opening paragraph that I have already written. "Wow, this is really good. You wrote this all by yourself?" Bethany asks impressed with my opening
paragraph. I nod and look over to Blake, he's with a group laughing about something.
We almost finish our essay when someone stands in front of me. I look up to see Blake, he looks really upset. "Sky, come with me. I told our teacher that we needed to talk outside." I look to Sara and Bethany, they look confused. "Why?" "Sky, get up," Blake says turning away, his face full of anger.
I look to the teacher but she is working with a group. "Sky now." Blake says pointing to the ground for me to walk to him. I shake my head, Blake walks to me and grabs my wrist. He pulls me into the hallway, then towards the fountain outside the C building.
"Let go of me!" Blake continues to pull me, I try to pull my arm out of his grasp but he just tightens his grip. "Stop please your hurting me, please stop!" Blake stops and faces me. "I don't want you talking to them." But we are working on a project together." "I don't care, you are not to work or talk to them, don't your remember the last time they talked to you, you got a black eye." I know Blake is trying to protect me but he can't keep doing it forever one day it will stop at one point.
"You can't tell me what to do. I'm sixteen I can take care of myself." Blake shoves me into the lockers. My head hit one of the locks, I can feel the back of my head pounding from the pressure. "Look Skylar, they cause you to get hurt. I don't want you near them. Stay away from them, they are trouble."
Blake Seles are full of anger. A tear falls from down my cheek. Blake is scaring me, he has never pushed me, something he has never done, and his eyes are like our dad, one of the two things that I am completely terrified of. Blake sees the tears in my eyes, his face softens, he Rachel his hand to my face. I cringe and turn my face away. I tremble as Blake wipes my tears away.
"Skylar, I'm sorry I yelled and pushed you. You know I'm sorry right?" Blake turns my face toward him. "Look I'm just... trying to protect you, I don't want you to get hurt." I turn my head away from him and start crying. I hate that I'm so sensitive every time I cry I feel like I'm weak. Blake pulls me into a brotherly hug, nut I push him away from me and run out of the side gate so no one besides Blake sees me running off campus. I run as far away as my legs will take me before I feel as if I can't run anymore.
