My ending to be a burden

Chapter 2 – New school

Xanthia's POV

I watched, as the other students said tearful goodbyes to their parents, some of who clung to their children begging them not to go. Mum and Dad gave my bags to the assistant, and left. I watched them go, they didn't even say goodbye.

"I HATE YOU!!" I screamed at them, people had turned to face us. Dad came back to me.

"Watch your mouth." He snarled.

"OR WHAT YOU'LL HIT ME?" I yelled back, not noticing his expression darken. I didn't even see it coming.

Normal POV

Her dad glared at her, she wasn't on guard, bringing his hand back, he took a full swing at her, but his hand had clenched into a fist. It hit her right in the face, sending her flying back a foot. She sat up, trembling, before hiding her face behind her hair.

"Get out." She had said, her dad happily obeyed and left her on the floor, as he took hold of her mum's arm and led her out.

"Are you okay?" A soft-spoken male came over to see if she was okay.

"Yea, I'm fine." She replied, letting him help her to her feet.

"You're dazed." He exclaimed, steadying her, as she swayed dangerously on her feet.

"God! He's never hit me so hard before." She muttered, shaking her head trying to fend off the dizziness and darkness that ebbed at her vision.

"Come on, you're coming to medical room." He said. She felt his arm tighten around her.

"It's nothing, I'm fine, honest." She tried to tell him, but he wasn't going to let her get away that easy.

After what seemed a good few hours, they arrived at the medical ward, and the doctor did a check up.

"She's fine, just a little dizzy, that's all." The doctor had said.

"Do you know her name?" The doctor had asked; the lad shook his head, causing his blonde hair to fall into his face.

"It's Xanthia." She answered, burying her face in her hands.

"That means you're one of the students at Dakotan! Cool, so am I!!" He chirped.

"What's your name?"

"Max, Max Tate! I'm from America, what about you?" He had all but sung.

"I'm a London lass, like." She replied returning the blonde lad's smile.

"I've made a friend already!" Max laughed, helping her to her feet.

"Got a flight buddy, yet?"

"Nah."

"Can I be your flight buddy?"

"If you are as funny as you are cheerful, then hell yea!" She replied back, suddenly finding herself in a bear hug thanks to Max.

"Max, I can't breathe!!" She laughed, 'Maybe this won't be so bad after all!' She thought as Max led her back to Gate 5, where they would be leaving.

"Could all passengers for Dakotan central please go to Gate 5. Thank you for your co-operation." The receiver crackled as the message ended.

"That's us!!" Max chirped as he led her to Gate 5.
