A/N: Danny is a girl. Danny is short for Danielle.

Drake's an Ass

After practice I went home. I don't think Danny noticed though because she was busy making out with Jack. At first the car wouldn't start but it shuttered then started going. "Bye Danny and Jack. You might want to head home soon though!" I said right before I left. While in the car the tears I had held in for a month came rushing out. It wasn't easy going to school with people who constantly tell you how sorry they are. Nor was it easy to live with a family you barely knew. My parents were gone and some new people were moving in. I couldn't even remember the last thing I had said to them. I had to take my mind off of my depression. I turned on the radio only to hear Good Charlotte. "Do you ever feel like breaking down? Do you ever feel out of place? Like somehow how you just don't belong, and no one understands you? Do you ever wanna run away? Do you lock yourself in your room? With the radio on turned up so loud, that no one hears you screaming? No you don't know what its like, when nothing feels alright. You don't know what its like, to be like me… To be hurt to feel lost, to be left out in the dark. To be kicked when you're down, to feel like you've been pushed around. To be on the edge of breaking down, but no ones there to save you. No you don't know what its like, Welcome to My Life." That song only made my cry harder because it was exactly how I felt. I then realized how alone I actually was. My family is gone, and I have to live with a guy who hates me. Danny is preoccupied with Jack so we aren't as close not that we weren't close. I feel like my life is over. As I pulled into the driveway, Megan came running out. "KAYLEE!" she screamed. Megan was so excited to have a sister in her house. I wiped away my tears so she wouldn't notice that I'd been crying. "Hey Megan. What's up?" I said. "Drake's missing! He never came home after taking you the car! Moms so freaked out she even called the police! Hurry up we have to go look for him!" she said. She was talking so fast I could barely understand but I could tell she was worried. "Alright, get it" I told her. She got in and we set off. Megan had her head out the window screaming his name. We almost made it around the whole city when we saw him lying in a ditch, his bike on top of him. "MEGAN I FOUND DRAKE!" I yelled. She practically jumped out of the car. "Drake you idiot!" she sobbed. She was just standing looking at him in shock. I ran over into the ditch and lifted the bike off of him. "Drake?" I said softly. He groaned and one of his eyes flittered open. "What…are you…doing here… Kay…lee…" he mumbled weakly. "I'm taking you home you ass. I don't think you'll be ridding your bike home like this. I'm leaving your bike here for now. You can get it tomorrow. No one would want this old bike anyway." I told him. I picked him up because he had fainted and dragged him to the car. "Kaylee, will Drake be ok?" I heard Megan say. I could tell she had been worried and afraid. "Yah, I'm sure he'll be ok." I told her. She ran over and hugged me. "I was so scared!" she sobbed into my shirt. I rubbed her back telling her that everything would be alright.

When Drake was laid in bed and Megan was watching cartoons Mr. and Mrs. Parker came in to talk to me. I was a little nervous at first but then I realized it was about Drake. The Parkers had already had little talks to me but they were about my parents. I was glad that wasn't the case because I didn't want to brake down crying in front of them.

"Kaylee, I can't thank you enough for finding Drake. We were so worried about him. Where was her and where is his bike?" Audrey said. I explained that I found him in the ditch on 7th near the Mercers. Both parents hugged me and thanked me again. A couple min. later Megan came in.

"Kaylee, Drake doesn't hate you. I know you think he does but he's just not used to having you here. I'm glad you're here. I'm going to go to bed now but I just wanted to say thanks." She said. She hugged me goodnight and went to her room. Maybe this place would feel like home soon. I felt the need to go check on Drake. I silently opened the door and went in. Good things Josh wasn't home or he would have woken up. He's a light sleeper. Josh was away for the weekend with one of his friends camping. Drake was just lying there. He looked so peaceful yet sad in a way. Something inside of me was changing. Like my heart that froze over was starting to melt. Suddenly I heard a sort of gurgling noise.

"-choke- what are you doing in my room?" Drake said after choking on his own spit.

"NOTHING! I was just checking to see if you were ok and I guess your ok so I'll go now sorry bye!" I said and rushed out of the room.

"Women..." Drake said, turning to go back to sleep.

After I ran back into my room I decided to breath. I was shocked. I THOUGHT HE WAS ASLEEP! I went to bed but didn't fall asleep for a while afraid that he might remember me sneaking into his room.
