As I drove to my high school, I couldn't stop thinking of Liam. The way he looked at me, The way he said my name was cute. I nearly drove past the school without noticing because I was so into daydreaming of his perfect smile. When I got to the parking lot the lunch bell rang. No one would notice that I skipped school; well no one would have if I even was here. I got out of the car and tripped on a stone. I nearly hit the ground until Zayn caught me.
"Hey," He said. "You didn't have to come. I totally understand, you could've skipped." I shook my head.
"No, it's fine. I heard you were playing against The Panthers today? Rogue break, but I know you'll do awesome."
Zayn looked on the ground and blushed. He pulled me over to the players bench and said, "If you aren't in the mood to watch, you're welcome to leave anytime. Have fun." I nodded at him and just as I was about to go take a seat he pulled me in for a hug. "I'm sorry Jana, about your mom."
I watched as lots of boys kicked and shot the ball down the field. The wind blew against my face as Zayn ran through the field pushing through other players. Zayn had lots of cute friends, I occasionally got new crushes on each of them but they were nothing compared to Liam. When the game was over Zayn's friend drove us all to Dairy Queen to celebrate on their victory. I sat on the corner seats and let Zayn sit with all his friends. I looked out the window while licking my ice cream. I couldn't wait to get home and snuggle in my mamas arms. See, that was the problem. I didn't have a mom anymore. I didn't have anyone to tell how my day was. I didn't have anyone who'll be waiting at home for me just so we could do something together. I had no one at home, no one. Tears welded up in my eyes as I was going through a break down once again. Zayn looked at me and a frown formed in his face. He excused himself from his table and sat down next to me.
"Jana, do you want to go home?" I looked up at him and lost control of my emotions. I started balling so hard I bet the whole store was staring at me.
"Zayn, I CAN'T go back home! Not when she won't be at home for me!" I got up and ran out the store. I drove all the way home and ran upstairs.
As I started for my room, George yelled "Stop!" which stopped me in my tracks. I froze as he walked up the stairs and towards me. "What were you doing?" He asked. I never replied and looked on the ground. "I asked you to do the grocery, did I ask you to go somewhere else?" When I never replied he raised his voice. "You had me worried!" I stood there stunned.
"You? You WORRIED?" I replied hysterically. "You wouldn't be worried if I went out and killed myself! In fact, you weren't even worried about Dana when she did that!" He stared at me blankly. "I bet you were only worried 'cause if I didn't come there'd be no one to make food for you huh?" I yelled. George's face filled with rage as he slammed against the wall. I hit the wall with a loud THUNK, I was sure the neighbors heard.
"Don't you yell at me!" He hollered. I got up and made a run for my room. I slammed the door before he could get in. I felt his hands on the knobs but I kept it shut. Tears fled my face as I cried out loud. "LEAVE ME ALONE!" I yelled and then the house was silent. I heard the car reverse out of the drive way. I got up and looked out the window and saw George drive away. I sighed and flopped down on the bed.
