Abby felt throbbing pain in her knuckles and head before she even opened her eyes.

"Hey guys I think she is coming around" said a voice. Abby slowly opened her eyes hoping that everything that happened today was a dream. As soon as she opened her eyes she knew it wasn't. Abby saw all her friends and Professor Z plus the nurse.

"Go away" said Abby starring at a spot on the ceiling.

"We will in a minute" said the nurse "first you need to answer some questions, how many finger am I holding up?" she asked sticking three fat fingers in Abby's face "three" said Abby irritated.

"How old are you?" asked the nurse "almost sixteen" said Abby who was now trying not to get mad.

"And where are you?" asked the nurse again "Blake Holsey High" she said very annoyed.

"She'll be okay with a little rest" said the nurse to everyone "just make sure she takes it easy the rest of the weekend, alright" she said to everyone.

Abby just rolled towards the wall, hopping they would get the hint she wanted them to leave now. She heard mumbled good-byes and when she thought everyone was gone she turned around.

"Lucas, why are you still here?" she asked. "I just wanted you to know if you need to talk you know where to find me" he said, and without waiting for a response he left.


Abby refused to come out all weekend. She couldn't sleep or eat, Sunday night she lay in bed waiting for Monday morning to come. When it did she dragged herself out of bed, and went downstairs to class not even stopping for breakfast.

"She looks even more abnormal than usual" said Madison in a loud whisper as Abby entered science class she just rolled her eyes and ignored her and plopped down in her seat.

"Abby are you okay?" asked Corrine tentatively, Abby just rolled her eyes "okay dumb question" said Corrine turning around.

"And speaking of dumb" muttered Josie as Madison walked over, Abby braced herself.

"I was just wondering if your mother left you here because she couldn't stand to look at you anymore.

"That's it" cried Lucas his voice full of anger, but before he could do anything Abby jumped on Madison and started punching and kicking at her.

She felt someone pull her off "Abby stop!" she recognized Z's voice.

"She deserves it" screamed Abby trying to pull from him "she deserves it" she quietly suddenly she collapsed on the ground starting to cry.

"Come on" she heard someone say. She felt someone help her out of the room at this point she was crying hysterically she saw through her tears it was Lucas she cried into her hands, he put his arm around her and she leaned into him and cried.


Later after she had gotten yelled at by principal Durst who had said the only reason she hadn't gotten expelled was because she very overcome by grief. She was sitting on the back patio with Lucas.

"How's Madison?" she asked.

"Well the nurse said she was lucky that you didn't break her nose, even though it was very discussing looking" said Lucas with a shutter.

"It's not like she can't buy herself a new one" said Abby starring out into the yard.

After a minute Lucas cleared his throat "Abby about the other night when I uh" "kissed me" said Abby.

"Yeah I'm sorry" Lucas said.

"Why?" asked Abby.

"I guess because it upset you" he said with a shrug.

"It didn't upset me it just surprised me and I guess I didn't know how to respond" she said quietly.

"I know it upset you, you don't-" she wouldn't let him finish she leaned over and kissed him.

"Now if I didn't like it why would I do that" she said matter of fact.

"Um" responded Lucas, Abby just rolled her eyes and laughed. She leaned back on the bench. She felt Lucas take her hand, she looked over at him and they smiled at each other, she laid her head on his shoulder and smiled, she decided to forget her troubles and just be happy for a while.
