Chapter two
i woke up to the irritating "buzz" of the alarm clock i had just bought a week ago. the reason being that i threw the last one to the wall. Not a morning person, in short.
i got up, stretched my arms, and headed for the bathroom.
After i washed myself and clothed myself for school, i grabbed my phone that was beside the pillow i used last night. "15 messages" and "22 missed calls" i groaned at the sight of those numbers, i was sure that it was only my bestfriend, Lizzie.
Lizzie and i had been friends since the first grade. She was the only person who never left me, she doesnt go to the same school as I do though. I switched school last year, because at that time that year i felt happy about following HIM to his school. which is the school i go to now. WORST MISTAKE EVER.
i decided on calling her and explaining why i ditched her last night, we were supposed to have a girls night, which basically meant going to her house and eating ice cream while watching chick flicks. ridiculous, i know.. but thats what normal teenagers do, right?
"JEWEL DIZON STEWART! 'bout time you called! where were you?! you never came." Lizzie yelled from the top of her voice. i rolled my eyes knowing that i had to explain to her everything. so i did.
"ohh, Jewel.. are you sure you dont wanna come back to my school?" she said sadly.
"i'm sure, besides.. if i did it would just make stuffs complicated and i dont want that" i said
"alright then, listen i gotta go to school now, i'll call you after school. and you better pick up young woman or I am going to your house and you dont wanna know what i may do to you!" she said shouting the last part
"whatever, betch!" i said laughing and ending the call before she said anything else.
i slipped my boots on and left my condo, walking to school without having breakfast, i never did though. its just lonely eating food alone. i only ate at home whenever Lizzie came over and when He came. and to think its been six months since and im still thinking of him!
i reached the gates of my school when i started to feel nervous again, the thought of yesterday happening again scared me. i exhaled a breath i didnt even know i was holding and walked to my locker. on my way there i bumped into a guy
"sorry" i said quickly walking straight by him
"hey wait!" the guy called. i looked up and saw that he was the guy who helped me yesterday. i guess i should thank him for saving me.
"hey, uhh.. thanks for helping me yesterday" i said not looking at him, i was ashamed to. i didnt even know the guy. must be new.
"yeah its no problem, are you okay now?" he asked, i just nodded in response and faced my locker to get my stuffs and go to class. hopefully, unnoticed.
just as i was about to walk to class the guy grabbed my shoulder and pulled me so i was facing him.
"hey, whats your name?" he asked. and i gave him a seriously-your-talking-to-me? look.
"Jewel, Jewel stewart." i said still looking at him with a questioning look.
"oh, i'm Chace, Chace Andrews." he said smiling at me putting his hand out and i shook it.
"so... you the same class as me?" i asked wondering why he was still walking the same direction as i was.
"yep" he said, popping the P.
"really? i havn't noticed, are you new?"
"yeah, i came a week ago."
"ohh.. good" i said smiling then we entered the classroom. we were kind of early so only a few students were in the room. he came and sat next to me
"so whats up with the students hating you?" he asked. i knew he would, but i prayed hard for him not too.
"its nothing, you said it yourself yesterday. i got bullied." i said shrugging. i really didnt want to tell him about everything six months ago
"come on.. i know its just not nothing. tell me?" he asked giving me a really cute look. i sighed. i guess i could tell him right? its not like anyone else doesn't know right? its not a secret. so why bother?
"alright, it started 6 months ago.."
