Love Hurts
Disclaimer: I do NOT own A.N.T. Farm
Chapter 1 - Olives Point of View (The ANTs are 13)
Olive walked in the A.N.T. Farm. She found Fletcher painting Chyna, Chyna strumming her guitar, and Angus typing on his keyboard frantically. Olive walked in casually and sat on the couch, pulling out her A.N.T Pad to read a book. She glanced over her Pad at Fletcher. Her love for him was unnoticed because of the simple fact he was in love with another woman. Olive always wanted to cry because of this, knowing he would never think of her in that way. She flinched as her A.N.T pad fell on her thighs. Olive had an abusive father, and her mother always sat in the background and watched emotionlessly. She had plenty scars and always did her best to hide them. She also never knew why her mother didn't love her, but wasn't going to ask her, afraid what her father would do if he found out, which he would. Last night, her father had gotten angry with her for no reason and pushed her down. Unfortunately, there was a table and her thigh hit it, causing it to bruise. This, as always, caused her sleep to be restless. Olive sighed and put her A.N.T Pad up. Like always, no one noticed her. She was always second best compared to Chyna. This also caused her to cry to sleep at night, knowing no one will never know her pain. Olive had always convinced herself that this dark tunnel would open up to a brighter place, but didn't really hope anymore. All she did now was put a smile on her face and hide her screaming emotions. Her thoughts were interrupted by Chyna.
"Hey Olive! I came up with a new song! Wanna hear it?" She asked eagerly.
Olive nodded using her fake enthusiasm. "Atleast it will be better than seeing him paint you all day." She teased, pointing at a now interested Fletcher.
"Hey!" He yelled, pretending to be hurt. "I am just simply doing it to express my love for mylady." He said in a dumb lovesruck voice.
Olive's heart broke at that, like it had done many times. "Your song?" She asked an amused Chyna as if Fletchers statement didn't hurt her. All she wanted to do was to change the subject. Chyna nodded happily and started playing it. As always, it was great. Olive enjoyed the chorus the most.
And who do you think you are?
Runnin' round leavin scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
Tearing love apart
Your gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?
"That was great!" Fletcher replied, smiling from ear-to-ear. Olive gulped, pained. "Loved it." Was all she could say.
Chyna smiled. "Oh thank you, guys!" Olive smiled at her enthusiastic friend and at her other head-over-heels friend. Atleast I know they are happy. Her glad moment ended when Chynas guitar, which had been put on its pedestal, fell on one of Olives wrist, which was one of her recently-put scar/bruise. Olive flinched and jumped back. The guitar fell to the ground, causing it to brake. Chyna gasped and picked up the broken guitar while Fletcher glared at Olive angrily.
"Why did you do that?" he yelled angrily.
"Fletcher, I have a few others, its okay." Chyna said, still looking at her favorite guitar.
"No! She could have caught it!" he responded.
Olive flinched at his behavior. She wanted to cry, wanted to tell him that it was only because it hurt too badly to do such a thing, but she just couldn't. She had to put on her frown and act tough, and hide her emotions. Olives broken-hearted-self replied, "Im sorry. I would of but it all happened too fast. "
Fletcher snorted and focused on Chyna and her guitar. "I can get you a new one!" He offered smiling.
Chyna shook her head. "No, its fine, really." Just as she said the words, the bell rang.
Olive exhaled a breath of relief to escape the tension. The rest of the day, Fletcher ignored her and she didn't speak to Chyna. When she walked to her house, she couldn't stop crying. Wiping off her tears, she entered her house. Her dad walked up to her angrily and slapped her. "Why didn't you go to school without a goodbye?" He asked, coming up with an excuse to beat her. Olive gulped and squeaked out, "I was late." Her father frowned and punched her shoulder enough to bruise it, afterwards he grabbed her wrist painfully as she cried out in pain. "Don't be late again." He said in his husky voice. With that, he threw her by the stairs. Olive ran up them, tears streaming down her face. She pulled out her iPod and listened to her favorite song by Debby Ryan. She cried the entire song, reminded of her pain.
Look around it's deadly night Just close your eyes and push right through Whoa oh-oh-oh At the beach the waves do crash Just close your eyes and push right through So close your eyes, shut them tight Just close your eyes and push right through
You've been losing every fight
Your hope is, feeling broken
Your feet are rough, they're scraped and bruised
But still have strength to take you through into the dawn
I know it's tough right now
This was meant for you
When the clouds are gone
Not a shadow in sight
You'll be drenched in the sun
With open eyes
(Uh oh-oh-oh)
Whoa oh-oh-oh
(Uh oh-oh-oh)
Tuck and grab and pull you back
The sun may be covered in gray
The sandledge they sulk and burn
Hurricane will take it's turn
Until the dawn
I know it's tough right now
This was meant for you
When the clouds are gone
Not a storm in sight
You'll be drenched in the sun
With open eyes
Let it be , and it will fade away (Fade away)
Push on through, the strength in you
Let it be, and wish it all away (All away)
So close your eyes, shut them tight
Let it be , and it will fade away (Fade away)
Push on through the strength in you
Let it be, and wish it all away (All away)
With open eyes, open wide
It's all good, now watch it fade away
Day by day
I know it's tough right now
This was meant for you
When the clouds are gone
Not a storm in sight
You'll be drenched in the sun
With open eyes
After the song went off, her phone beeped. It was Fletcher.
Olive – Flecther
Im sorry, Olive. Kind of got over angry.
Olive sighed and texted him back.
Chyna made you do this, didn't she?
She got her response when he didn't text back. Olive threw her phone against her wall sadly and cried in her pillow. If only he knew…..
The first song was by 'Jar of Hearts' by Christina Perri. The second was 'Open Eyes' by Debby Ryan.. I DO NOT OWN THESE SONGS :).. And by the way, this was kind-of-ish the intro.. Trust me it gets better :D .
