(NOTE: TO the people who had reviewed:
First off, this story was not planned very well. It was a roleplay between me and my sister, when she was away. I will NOT tell where she was, for her privacy. Plus it's none of your business.
And I do appreciate your reviews. I just get mad easily. It's weird. I am sorry.
Also, the made-up character wasn't supposed to 'be' anybody, like myself, or Skylar, it was just a random person we decided to add. For originality in the story, and not the same old characters.

Ellie ran to the back of the building. She stopped, and leaned against the brick wall, out of breath. She sat down on the ground, and brought her knees up to her chest, and buried her head in them. A minute later, she went into her duffle bag, brought out a lighter, and something else, and lit it.
Roxi turned her attention back to her tray and continued eating. 'Fine, be that way,' she thought bitterly. It bothered her that Ellie wouldn't talk to her...maybe she should stop telling her about don't wanna talk about it," Roxi said, taking off her jacket and revealing a few small burn marks on her arm.
Craig noticed the marks. "What's with the burn marks?"
"Accident," Roxi lied. She didn't quite know if she could trust him with the truth...she had had friends at her other schools act like her best friend for like a year and then betray her to the point that she'd cut herself.
"Okay." Craig said. He figured he just leave it.
Roxi took a drink of her tea and looked up at Craig. "I'm sorry," she said, standing up with her tray.
"For what?" Craig asked.
"For being so secretive," she said, before beginning to walk away. 'Maybe I should just go home or something...' she thought.
"It's okay. I don't mind..." Craig said, and smiled at her. She was so pretty.
Roxi nodded and continued walking. She reentered the cafeteria, dumped her tray and returned it, and looked around and everyone. 'Great! Now what?' she thought.
Ellie finished it, and got up, and walked back towards the cafeteria.
Roxi almost wished that Craig had gone after her, but why bother? He barely even knew her! She spotted Paige laughing with a few of her friends and decided to stand against the wall for a while.
Ellie walked in the cafeteria, and saw Roxi, and walked up to her. "What happened to Craig? You just left him?"
"Yeah," Roxi said, trying her best to mask that something was wrong.
"Why?" Ellie said. She smelled something. It was the smell of cigarettes. It was strong. She backed up a bit, fearing Roxi would notice it.
Roxi noticed the smell but didn't say anything. "I'm gonna go see if Craig is still out there," she said, walking away.
"Okay." Ellie said.
Roxi smiled slightly when she still saw Craig at the table, only he was with some guys she didn't know.
Craig looked up, and saw Roxi. "Hey, Roxi, come here!"
Roxi made her way over. "Hey," she said. "Sorry I just ran off like that..."
"It's alright." Craig said, still smiling.
Roxi looked at the boy who was with Craig and smiled at him.
"Oh, Roxi. These are my friends, Jimmy and Marco." Craig said.
"Nice to meet you," Roxi said.
