It has been 1 week since that little incident in the Living room. Things haven't gotten much better.

Dad still flips out at everything. He must have raised his hand to hit me, about 50 times a day.

Mom is still pretending she hasn't seen anything, just like old times, eh? Mom is becoming more distant with me, I think she hasn't gotten over the fact that I don't want Dad living here, I don't quite understand why she thinks I shouldn't mind! Everyday I am feeling more and more guilty for keeping Dan here. He hasn't seen his family in about 2 months. I feel so bad!

The pain in my hip is going, slowly. I still feel uncomfortable most of the time but I don't moan about it about 100 times a day. I am down to 75 times now, for me that is an achievement!

It was currently 7:54AM on a dull, boring Sunday morning. Mom, Dad and Jazzie were still in bed. I was lying in my usual bed A.K.A the sofa, waiting for Dan to turn up and help me get changed so I can leave this shit hole that I call my home.

Suddenly, I heard a sound from the door, that sounded like a key was unlocking it. The door opened and Dan walked in.

"Morning." Dan whispered.

"Hi." I whispered back.

"Your parents in bed?" He asked looking around.

I nodded.

He helped me stand and get changed. Then he wheeled me into the downstairs bathroom so I could brush my teeth and hair. While I was getting myself ready Dan was writing a note for Mom and Dad so they know that I left the house. I told him that he didn't have to do that, they wouldn't even notice if I was there or not but Dan, being Dan, insisted.

Once I had finished getting ready we left the house. It was a cold morning, the fresh air hit me like a slap in the face, I had only been out five minutes and my cheeks and nose were bright pink with the cold.

"Oh, yeah, today were are meeting Mr Wright." Dan said as we walked/wheeled down the street. I stopped."What? As in Mr Wright? Head teacher Mr Wright?"

"Is there another Mr Wright?" Dan asked smiling.

"Why does he want to see me?" I asked eyes wide.

"I don't know, we will find out in a hour." He said shrugging.

"Didn't you think to tell me sooner?"

"He only called me last night, we are meeting him at the café now."

"Urgh! Fine, but you owe me a Hot Chocolate." I said wheeling myself passed him.

"Fair enough." Dan said.

We got to the café in around 45 Minutes. It was a long way from my house, especially when I am in THIS DUMB ASS WHEELCHAIR.

Now I know what you are thinking, and you would be correct. I have a few issues with this wheelchair, that would be because, it is a freaking annoying thing! Dan on the other hand thinks it is the most entertaining object ever. I hate not being able to walk, I want to be able to look after myself!

Dan walked in first and held the door for me to get in, we saw Mr Wright on the far right corner of the café, he waved to us and signalled us to sit with him. Dan nodded and told me to go to him while he bought us drinks.

I wheeled around all the other tables, with much difficulty I should add, but made it to his table, eventually.

"Ah, Mr Poynter, Good to see you are in good health." He said smiling.

Good health? Good Fucking health? I am in a Wheelchair! A chair with bloody wheels! My hip is killing me and I feel like my head is going to drop off at any minute! Does that seem like 'Good Health' to you?

"Yes, it is." I said smiling back.

Bloody idiot.

Dan walked back carrying back 2 hot chocolates. He passed me one and I thanked him. I looked at the side of the cup, someone has written something on the side. It read: Be Nice.

I looked across at Dan who smiled slightly.

"Good to see you again, Daniel." Mr Wright said.

"Good to see you as well, Sir." Dan said and shook Mr Wright's hand.

"Well then, I best get to the point." He said sipping his drink.

I wonder what would happen if the cup had poison in it. Will it work on someone from another planet? Mr Wright obviously isn't human, he's so happy all the time. It irritates me.

"I have spoken to your Doctor, Mr Poynter, and he has informed me that you are making a fast recovery. So, we had a little chat and we both agree that it is time you returned to London City High." He said smiling.

Wait what? No! Never! Wait a second, the school does have a name? London City High? Well this is news. Stop it, Dougie, Concentrate!

I gulped. "Return?"

He nodded. Dan looked across at me waiting for me to answer. I didn't.

"Sir, what about Chris?" Dan answered.

"Chris? Chris Davidson? He and his friend Carl Stanley have been temporarily excluded."

I sighed in relief.

Wait, 'temporarily'? as in, they are coming back?

"Temporarily?" I asked quietly.

"How long?" Dan asked.

"3 Days." Mr Wright answered, still smiling.

"Only 3 days?" Dan shouted. Everyone in the Café turned to look at him. Dan was red in anger.

"Yes, I don't believe that there was much reason to exclude them for any longer."

"Dougie has broken his pelvis because of them and you don't believe that it is good enough?"

"No. It wasn't their fault Mr Poynter broke his pelvis, it was the speeding driver. It isn't fair to blame them for the accident."

"They chased him out of the school, causing him to get hit, if he wasn't running out in the first place he wouldn't have been hit, would he?" Dan asked.

"Yes, Mr Davidson and Mr Stanley did have some part to blame but so does Dougie-" He looked across at me. "-you knew very well not to leave school grounds during school hours, Didn't you, Mr Poynter?"

I nodded.

"So, there you go. I do not like being spoken to like that Mr Jones, Student or not, Show respect for your elders. Now I must leave, see you tomorrow, Mr Poynter." He said and walked out of the café.

I could see that Danny was furious. I looked around for something to cheer him up. On the table next to us there was a young women writing on a pad. I wheeled up to her.

"Excuse me, Miss, but may I use that pen a minute?" I asked politely.

She nodded and passed me the pen.

I wheeled back to our table and picked up Dan's cup. I wrote: Be Nice. Then passed the pen back to the women and thanked her.

Dan read it and laughed.
