It was the same day that I had beat Pogue Parry in swimming, been annoyed by all my teachers, and once again had my almost healed heart torn into shreds. It was one o'clock when I got back to my dorms. Having to sneak around the guards to get to my room. But it wasn't hard. I'm gifted. Hours earlier I was sitting at Pancake House talking to Pogue. I will never go back since it is soiled with the sort of hatred I hold for Pogue Parry at this moment in time.

Flash Back…

"Okay, so now its eight thirty-nine. He is almost a hour late." I muttered silently to the dust bunny under my booth.

As if not on cue, Pogue walks into the restaurant laughing with a girl wrapped in his arms. More like the girl from my biology class that kept staring at me. Oh yeah, Barbie's friend. Kate. They both notice me and head over to the booth, sliding in across from me.

"Hey, umm I didn't know if you noticed your half a hour late?" I said annoyed.

"Yes, I see that, I'm sorry, my mother needed me to go get some stuff."

"Well since that is over with. What do you want? Why are we here?"

I glanced between the two of them. Watching him as he watched Kate stare at a boy from the other side of the room. No trust, sucks for him.

"We are here to end this war going on between us and you."

"Us. You and the boys, or you and Kate." I said.

"Us, the boys. We were such good friends Melanie, why did you have to screw us over and leave?" He said.

STOP. Did he just ask why I screwed up.

"Screw you over, please. You, screwed yourself over six years ago Pogue Parry. Don't you dare blame this on me." My temper rising.

"I didn't do anything to you. You left without a word, no letter saying your okay, no phone calls. Hell, Nana wouldn't even tell us anything?"

"I had no choice, I ran home to a moving van and my parents saying lets go. And I was going to tell you at your party., but as I remember, I was banned." I stated matter-of-factly.

I saw it in his eyes that it brought back the memory that has haunted me. He was at lost of words. Looking from Kate, to the table, to me. I don't even know why Kate is here. She follows him around like a dog after his bone. Where the bone goes, the dog goes.

"Wait, so you and the new girl.." Kate started to speak.

"I have a name." Interrupted her.

"Anyways, you and the new girl use to know each other?" She asked Pogue.

"Yes, our families were really close."

"Were?" I asked laughing.

He looked at me, then back to Kate.

"She was banned by my mother to not come to my thirteenth birthday party, and after that she left." He continue to speak to Kate. Making it seem all my fault.

"Well then you don't need to waste your time on her baby. We should be at the Dells partying." She whispered to him. Trying to make it so I don't hear her, but she failed horribly.

"Look here Barbie's friend. I don't even know why the hell you are here, but your getting on my last nerve."

She was about to say something but I stopped her.

"Actually I don't even know why I'm here in the first place. Everything is always my fault right Pogue. I'm leaving, have a good life with psycho here." I said annoyed as ever. Leaving the Pancake house and Pogue Parry behind me.

End of flash back…

I spent hours riding up and down the main street of Ipswich, blaring my music. Seriously thinking about heading to Nicky's to get a drink. But I have school in the morning so it really wouldn't help. There was a couple of times and I had to stop at a red light, stopping by a car filled with drunken frat boys whooping and howling at me. Disgusting. I knew this was going to be a bad idea coming back to Ipswich. Too many memories and too much bull to deal with. Why couldn't we just move to a different country then a different state.

After getting ready for bed at the ungodly hour in the morning I laid down already knowing I couldn't spell. Memories of the boys and me floated back, seeing smiles on everyone's face. Almost falling into a deep slumber until the smirk that was present on Chase's face after the car wreck haunted me.

"Well looks like no sleep for me." I told myself as I got out my book and started reading. Hopefully I wont fall asleep in any classes.
