Sebastian's words hurt, but his fists hurt more. He`d never hit me before...
My head crashed against the wall, making a dent in the plaster. Sebastian had never hit me before. Sebastian had never hit me before. the words flew around my brain as I tried to figure out what was happening.
He`d hit me, a tear rolled down my cheek, Seb said that he loved me.
"Clary!" he shouted as a slap echoed through the silent apartment. My cheek stung. Slowly I got to my feet. but before I was fully up, he pushed me into the wall trapping me in his arms. His mouth was pressed firmly onto mine. his tongue forcing entry into my unyielding mouth. I turned my head to the side but he still didn`t take the hint as he started trailing kisses down my neck. I started shaking my head. no stop.
"NO!" I screamed waking up. I sat bolt upright. Where was I. I started violently shaking, my nightmares still real. Where was I.
"Clary, honey, are you alright" Jocelyn`s voice whispered.
"Mum?" I croaked. looking up to her, she was standing by my bedroom door. My bedroom.
"Having the nightmare again sweetie?" she asked.
"Yeah" It had been 6 months since Sebastian and all the bruises but I still had vivid nightmares. I had moved away shortly after our relationship had gotten too toxic. He wouldn`t take no as an answer.
I didn`t realise that I was crying until Jocelyn pulled me to her lap.
Tomorrow was a fresh start though, I was starting at Alicante high, thousands of miles away from Sebastian. Sebastian and my father, who was still broken up from my sudden departure. I knew that it would be hard for him to cope on his own. Even now, Sebastian is hurting everyone...
I don`t know how I got here already, outside the school gates of Alicante high. It felt like moments since waking up. But here I was. Ready for a fresh start. I was unknowingly gripping my coffee cup too hard. I`d made a brief stop at Java Jones before getting here. Better get this over and done with.
As I descended into the gates of my new Hell. I felt as if someone was watching me, but as I turned around, I realised that there was no one.
Rushing into the school office, I was greeted by an over enthusiastic receptionist. She seemed like one of those people who would easily get on people`s nerves. No wonder the other receptionist looked like she was 3 steps away from hitting her.
"Why hello there, keen to start a new day at our school?" She asked me, smiling at me.
No " Yeah sure, I'm Clarissa Fray." I answered her.
"okey dokey Clarissa, " she started standing up. The second receptionist looked at me sympathetically. ",let me just get your timetable then we can set you off with a buddy." She was buzzing around happily.
"It`s Clary" I said.
"ok. Here you go Clary. let me call your buddy, her name is Issabelle and she`s a lovely girl. Oh there she is."
Issabelle did not look like a 'lovely girl' instead, she looked like one of those girls who would throw toilet paper over your house on Halloween or bombard your locker with rubbish. She also looked like one of those girls who I would never talk to again. Her eyes were dark brown, almost black, like his, Sebastian's. Her hair was also black like his, she was tall and slim and devastatingly beautiful. Everything about her reminded me of him. I shivered.
"Can we go now?" She asked impatiently. I looked at her, meeting her stare with my own. one thing Sebastian taught me was to never show weakness.
"Yes. "I replied.
"Then let`s go." She said. Finally the fresh start I was asking for. No boy will get in the way of my life this time.
I'm back. The problem is that I just prefer reading to writing so much more. So I normally give up on all stories I write, but I want to write a full story this time. I so don`t want another discontinued one. Please review. I don`t have much insight to what will happen in this story so I am up for requests.
