DISCLAIMERS: I don't own any brand or person or company you may recognise in this chapter

Allison got to school early today. For two main reasons. One, so she could talk to Chase, about therapy and about Thirteen; although she wasn't really sure how much she would reveal about that. And two, so she would have a chance to get settled in class before Remy came in so she wouldn't be too startled. Allison was nearly completed convinced her plan would work; she was the type of person who blended in easily, so hopefully Thirteen wouldn't see her.

She took her customary seat in Advanced Chem, waiting for Chase to show up. She was feeling very anxious, even though she has taken her meds this morning. Seeing Chase, Allison ran over to hug him.

'Chase, I have something really important to tell you! Come sit down!'

Allison practically dragged Chase over to his seat. Fortunately for her, she was facing away from where Thirteen sat, so hopefully she wouldn't freak her out too soon. She was practically bouncing in her chair while Chase looked at her with extreme curiosity.

'So, why are you bouncing like a five year old at Christmas?'

Allison practically squealed in excitement

'On the way back from therapy, I walked by the park and guess who was there?! Thirteen!'

Allison had decided to leave out the fact that Thirteen had been at therapy too, she knew Chase was her best friend but Thirteen had made her promise not to tell.

'What? What did you say to her?'

Allison explained mostly everything, only leaving out the sensitive parts, like Thirteen's therapy, Kutner and the fact that she fell asleep in her arms.

'We were there for like, four hours. But, she didn't recognise me, but then, why would she? I mean, I'm just a nobody and she's only seen my once at school so...'

Allison trailed off, wrapped up in her own train of thought. Without her knowing, the entire class had filed in and the lesson had started. She also didn't notice how Thirteen had done a double take when she walked past her seat, although, as she couldn't get a proper view of her face, Thirteen assumed it was not Allison Cameron, the therapy girl, but just an ordinary girl.

Allison was so deep in thought that she didn't notice she was being asked a question until Chase nudged her arm.

'Miss Cameron, would you be so kind as to answer the question?'

Allison panicked. She had not been listening at all 'Sorry sir, I'm not concentrating very well today, may I go to the nurse? I feel a bit ill'

The teacher nodded and Allison packed her textbook into her bag, told Chase not to bother meeting her for lunch and left hurriedly from the classroom, but just slow enough to catch the look of pure shock that Thirteen wore. Grimacing, Allison left, pulling a piece of paper and a pen from her bag.

'Come to the park at 8, I'll explain everything. I promise.'

Allison folded this note and slid it through the gap in Thirteen's locker. Before she took off, she remembered to go to the nurses office. After sufficiently faking sickness, she got a note that allowed her to leave school (the recommendation being that she go home). Of course, Allison ignored this bit and she decided to go into town. She still needed a poster for her therapists office. She couldn't get a Taylor Swift poster, there was already one there. This could take some thought. After trailing round several shops, stopping for chips on the way.

She finally found a shop that exclusively sold band merchandise, aka, Allison's idea of heaven. After quickly scanning the shelves, Allison found two posters she really liked. A McFly poster, consisting of the four members dressed in smart suits. She smiled at this, she had the same poster pinned up on her wall from when she went to their Memory Lane concert last year but she didn't want to take it down, hence the new one. The other poster was of Drake Bell. Allison had been obsessed with Drake Bell ever since he had been on the Amanda Show, and then on Drake&Josh. Having never been to one of his concerts, Allison decided to keep this poster for herself, she had just enough space on her poster filled walls to put it, she hoped.

After paying for the posters and leaving the shop, Allison decided to head home, knowing her mum would be working, so she could pretend to have been curled up watching tv for most of the day. By the time7:30came around Allison had already watched an entire season of her favourite show, Merlin. When she realised the time, she jumped out of bed and started rushing around to make herself look nice. She suddenly stopped in her tracks

'Why am I making such an effort? It's not like we're on a date!'

Allison continued to think this over whilst getting dressed. Finishing up, she grabbed her phone, her bag and went down to the kitchen to inform her mum she was going out for a bit

'Mum? I'm just going for some fresh air, to help with my headache'

Her mum nodded, not really paying attention as she was too engrossed in the film that was playing. Turning to leave, Allison grabbed the spare key, thinking her mum would probably lock the door before she went to bed shortly.

Allison set off at a brisk pace in an effort to keep warm. She stopped at the local store and brought herself some Skittles as she hadn't had any lunch or dinner. Munching happily, Allison put the Drake Bell mix on her phone and whistled the tube of Bitchcraft all the way to the park. She took a seat on the swing and glanced at her watch. Unfortunately, she got there 15 minutes early, which gave her time to get nervous about what she would say

'She's probably going to hate me' Allison thought sadly 'I mean, I kind of lied to her.' 'Arrgghh why am I making this so complicated?!'

Suddenly, a voice jolted her from her thinking 'making what so complicated?'

Allison looked up to find a stunning Thirteen looking down at her, smirking.

'I, uh, I said that out loud? It doesn't matter, it's not important'

Chuckling softly, Thirteen sat down. On Allison's lap. Even with the empty swing next to them. Wrapping her arms around Allison, Thirteen leant her head onto Allison's shoulder, shivering slightly. Feeling Thirteen shivering, Allison wrapped her arms around her tightly, also wrapping them around the chains of the swing so as not to fall off. She leant her head onto Thirteen's and breathed in the smell of her hair; she smelled like apples.

Thirteen spoke up suddenly 'you r hair smells nice, like flowers'

Allison giggled 'yours smells like apples, I like it'

Thirteen smiled into Allison's coat. After five minutes of sitting in silence Allison asked Thirteen a question, hoping to get an honest answer

'Are you okay?'

Thirteen sighed 'Yes...no, I don't know'

Allison hugged her tighter 'you can tell me, if you want to, I'll always listen'

Remy snuggled into Allison, not saying anything for a while. When she did start talking, Allison knew not to interrupt her, or she wouldn't be able to finish

'Its my dad, he's...he's got a new girlfriend. She is absolutely horrible to me. That's why I was so glad to get out of the house, I can't stand it, everything she's says is some kind of insult towards me, I hate it. I hate her. I don't want to go home'

Thirteen soon had tears running rivers down her cheeks. Allison hugged her tightly, trying to put her thoughts into it. She couldn't say what she was thinking, she didn't think there was a word for this emotion. Suddenly, something occurred to her

'Hey, maybe you can stay at mine tonight?' Allison looked at her nervously 'that is, if you want to and your dad's ok with it?'

Allison took Thirteen's huge hug to mean yes. She quickly text her mum and told her she would be bringing a friend round to sleep over.

'Did you want to go to your house and get clothes or anything?'

Thirteen nodded, standing up. She offered her hand to pull Allison up but didn't let go when they started walking

'We're holding hands! Should I question it or just keeping holding her hand?'

Allison was mentally questioning everything about this situation when she realised that they had reached Thirteen's house. Looking at Thirteen she could tell she was nervous. Thinking that this woman must be an absolute horror, Allison gently squeezed Thirteen's hand

'Do you want me to come with you?'

Thirteen nodded 'please?'

They walked into the house and Thirteen instantly dropped Allison's hand. Feeling sad at the loss of contact she could hear Thirteen talking to her dad in the next room. Deciding to stay where she was she pulled out her phone and told her mum they would be about half and hour.

Thirteen came back out and pulled Allison upstairs into her room. The first thing Allison noticed was the wall filled entirely with pictures. Literally, there was no wall space left. Allison started looking through all the pictures, some of them were of Thirteen and friends from school, her with her dad, and some with people she assumed where her mum and brother. There were also several childhood photos from holidays and stills from home videos, Allison thought the entire thing was amazing. She noticed there were a few gaps dotted randomly around

'Thirteen, why are there random gaps in the wall?'

Thirteen sighed and walked up next to Allison 'that's where photos of me and Foreman were. I've kept one up there because it was a big part of my life, but I gave the rest to him.'

Allison wrapped a comforting arm around Thirteen's waist, feeling pleased when the brunette leant into her. Picking up the bag she had packed, Thirteen led the way downstairs, once again moving away from Allison.

Not likely the loss of contact, Allison resolved to ask her about it when they started walking.

'How come you moved away when we went passed your dad? Does he not like me or something? Was it something I did?'

Thirteen felt bad for making Allison feel so insecure 'it's not you, sweetie, I just don't want my dad thinking I'm bi on top of everything else. He tends to jump to conclusions a lot'

Allison felt like crying 'he definitely won't like me then' she mumbled. Although apparently she wasn't quiet enough

'You're bi?' With a nod, Thirteen continued 'me too'

Allison looked at her in surprise 'I thought you said...' Trailing off, Allison got very confused

'Just because I said I didn't want him thinking it, doesn't mean I'm not. He's very opinionated about that. When my brother came out my dad kicked him out the house'

Allison thought that was very sad and reached out to squeeze Thirteen's hand in an effort to console her, which effectively closed the gap between them and they held hands in comfortable silence the rest of the way. They stopped at Allison's front dour

'Ok, you ready to meet my mum?'
