chapter 5: Family's hurt more then a broken relationship

After the day I had I couldn't wait to go home! But remember the dysfunctional family I was telling you about earlier yeah well here's a little bit about that:

Basically my parents are divorced like darwin's and Jacksons but its a little more to it. My dad split when I was like 5, I caught him cheating on my mom with some 19 year old blonde. He found out I knew and made me promise to never tell.

But I was 5 guys, if I see my dad groping a women that wasn't my mother what do you expect me to do?? So it slipped. My dad was so angry, I had never seen my dad so mad. The way he looked at me was as if I was a disappointing waste of skin.

But my mom was furious not because she conpletely believed me but because she suspected all along. She started pushing and shoving and punched my dad across the face so hard his cheek immediately bruised and started to bleed. I was shaking in the corner confused and heart broken, what had i done.

Crying and scarred for life I watched my mother stand up tall and direct my dad out the door. He left and I never saw him again, not even a 'goodbye' to his precious angel he used to kiss to sleep.

Soon my mom started to see another man, his name was Robert. He's cool, extremely square but cool. A while after they had another child named Joey, my new half brother.

The family slowly seemed perfect, but I was always the reminder that this was not a perfect home. I was the disappointment, maybe their lives would be better if I never existed. Sometimes I feel if I just left everything would be better.

I can never truly feel like one of the family because I'm on the sidelines, the reminder of what happened and that sucks. I truly do try my absolute best to stay positive though, and to never find a man like that guy.

When I got home I threw my backpack on my bed and checked my phone and noticed a message from a unknown number, it read

"Hey Marissa, its Darwin hit me up girl." 

Ugh

I turned my phone off and went right to sleep.

In the morning I woke up and did my usual routine which is basically showering, brushing my teeth, getting dressed ect.

When I got to school everyone looked at me up and down again. Except this time girls were staring at me like I just stole their puppy. What was up with them did I have something in my hair? Was there something on my butt?! What was on my butt?!?!! I couldn't have started my period without noticing it yet could I??!!

I rush to 1st period and took my seat when Kate suddenly burst through the door pratically running towards me.

"MARISSA!" She screams.

"Kate! Thank goodness you're here, can you do me a favor and check my butt? I'm scared mother nature came early this month." I whisper trying to hint that she's being loud.

"IS IT TRUE?!!!" She says yelling in my ear completely ignoring my previously statement.

"Kate calm down is what true?" I say a bit confused.

"IS IT TRUE THAT YOU KISSED DARWIN?!!" She says as her deep emerald green eyes sparkle at the words that just came out her mouth.

wow.

WOW.

"Who told you that?!" I say getting a little nervous.

"Everyone's talking about it a rumors going around that you guys are dating, Is it true?!!" She says while her cherry red curled hair bounces at the thought of me finally dating.

OMG! who would start a rumor about me like that? I'm nice to just about everyone I meet and I most definitely DID NOT KISS DARWIN! Of all people. What if Jackson finds out about the rumors what will he think ughhhhh

Great.
