LAKEHURST
011. "CUT"
Every since Jane learned about her devastating past, no one believes her besides Holly J., she hasn't even told her mother about it. Jane eased her way into the school building, and saw her usual hang out spot, she saw Bruce and Johnny fooling around in the hall ways, and they bumped into Mr. Langston who was carrying scaples for Mrs. Combes, the science instructor. "I'll help you Mr. Langston" Jane said as she went to go help the man, "Thanks Jane, I swear sometimes I think you're the only 9th grader that's civilized" Mr. Langston said before leaving. Jane noticed her teacher had left behind one of the scaples, but by the time she was about to say something, he was gone, she looked at the tool, and then she thought about relieving stress, she put the scaple in her pocket, and quickly headed to her class.
Holly J. was standing outside of Travis's first class, apparently waiting for him, when he came out, he was automatically pulled into a kiss, "What's that for?" he asked. "For being a great boyfriend" Holly J. said. Travis then looked at her, "I've got band practice" Travis said, "That's the third time this week Travis, I'm beggining to think Sav's losing it!" Holly J. said trying not to get mad at her boyfriend. Holly J. then walked away. And Travis was there standing in the middle of the hall.
Jane rushed to the bathroom at her house, and Lucas was immediately pushed out of the way, "Wow, where's the fire Jane!" Lucas shouted to his sister. Jane was in the bathroom, she pulled the scaple out of her pocket, she then looked at it, and looked at her wrist, she gently started to cut, and a line of blood quickly rose, and Jane started to cry.
Travis quickly came into the band room, where Sav was, "Yo man, wassup!" Sav called to Travis. "Look man, I've been lying to Holly J. about where I've been going the past 3 days" Travis said in one breath. Sav couldn't believe what the boy had just said, "Dude why would you have to lie to Holly J.?" Sav said, but this time Holly J. had eased her way into the band room, "She's controlling" Travis said. Sav just nodded his head in shame, and Travis turned around and noticed Holly J., "Babe..." Travis started trying to explain, "Don't bother" Holly J. said tearing up inside, and she left, slamming the door behind her.
Jane was about to slit another piece of skin, when all of a sudden, Lucas burst into the bathroom, and he saw blood, and the scaple, "Jane what the hell?" Lucas said, not trying to let their mother hear him. Jane looked at her brother with fear, and thought he was gonna go to their mother, "Here clean yourself up, and give me the scaple" Lucas said, giving Jane a towel, and finishing up in a calm voice. Jane was astonished, and she was breathing hard, and she hugged her brother, and he told her, "It's gonna be okay sis" Lucas finished.
Holly J. was sitting on the bench, when she saw Travis coming over, "You want me to leave" Holly J. said, being sarcastic. "Look, Holly J., I wasn't thinking, but I still like you" Travis said. "Then why did you call me controlling" Holly J. said, without trying to make it sound like a question. "Because I'm a jerk, and I need you to forgive me" Travis said wrapping his arms around her. "You better be lucky I'm in the forgiving mood" Holly J. wrapping her arms around the boy, and Travis kissed her on the forehead, and Holly J. smiled.
