six pov.
I wake up to my alarm going off. I groan and throw my hand over and hit it. it doesn't shut off. I press the button a billion times and it still doesn't
work. this piece of crap doesn't even plug into the wall. I scream and chuck it at the wall and watch it shatter. I get up from bed and walk over to
my bathroom and have a shower. I asked tori if I could work all day. I let my guard down and allowed my self to be happy yesterday. I can't let it
happen again. i'm not going to school today. i'm sneaking out tonight to train with tori, I realised that with whats been happening with caleb and
peter I need to be more fit. after I get out I put on a black spaghetti strap crop top and black booti shorts and put on my leather jacket and boots
and do my hair and makeup. I grab my helmet and speed off to the parlor. I convinced tori to spend the afternoon giving me some new tattoos and
piercings. I get there and park my bike. I get inside and throw my helmet and jacket in the back and set up my station. i'm almost done when I
hear someone walk in. "hi. I have an appointment with six." I recognise that voice. I turn around and sure enough it's who I thought It was.
"brody?" I ask as I turn around. his eyes go wide. I changed almost everything about myself since I moved to Chicago. brody was my room mate. I
had a studio loft that we shared before I moved here. I run up and hug him. "god, six. it's so good to see you. you look amazing." he says against
my ear. I step back and he kisses me. hard. I push him away and look down. "i can't do this brody. you know that. I can't let anything in that could
result In something good. I can't do that to you." I almost whisper. my hand is still on his chest but i'm still looking down. I feel a tear fall down my
face. " I think you should go now." I say as I take my hand away from his chest. "come on six." he starts but I cut him off. I clench my hands into
fists. "now." I say more forcefully. I don't look up until he's gone. I turn and walk back and start sanitizing things at my station even though I
already did it. "six." tori starts to talk but I don't let her finish. I can't let her finish. "i'm fine." I say it a little sharper than intended. I hear her
whisper an 'okay' before going in the back.
(time skip to around 1 pm)
this morning a had a couple clients. my last one just left. it was a couple who got matching swallows and ivy. I clench my fists and go in the back
where tori is. "hey. tori. would you be okay if I punched a hole in the wall?" I ask. she must see the pain in my eyes because all she does is nod. I
nod back and take my tape out of my bag and wrap my knuckles like I do when I use the punching bags at the gym. I walk back out to the front
and walk over to my station that's against the back wall. I take a deep breath and bounce on the balls of my feet as I stretch my neck. I take
another deep breath and let it out just as I let my fist fly towards the wall. just as I do I hear the bell on the door go off. I pull my hand out of the
giant hole in the wall and look at my hand. it's all bloody but it doesn't hurt. It didn't feel like it was hitting something hard at all. I look up and turn
around and see the gang standing there. I walk into the back and take off the hand is already bruising. I smirk at this. I clean it up and
wrap some gauze around it before taking a broom and going back out to sweep up the dry wall that's now on the floor and all over my station. I
sweep it up and start cleaning my station. "six are you okay?" I hear chris ask. I don't turn around. "just dandy." I say sharper than I intended as I
clean up my station. "no. your not." zeke isays as he takes a step towards me. "yes. I am." I say through gritted teeth. I slowly stand. "what
happened to the happy six that we had yesterday?" he asks as he puts his hand on my shoulder. I stiffen and shrug it off. "i let my guard down but
I promise it won't happen again." I reply as I finish sanitizing things. "i think you should go now." I sniffle as I walk away from my station. zeke
grabs my arm and trys to pull me back but I twist his arm and pin him against the wall with my fore arm against his throat. I never once look at
him. "six. let go of me." he whispers. this time I look him straight in the eyes and he stiffens. i'm sure my anger and pain is showing through my
eyes. "i said I think you should go." I say through gritted teeth trying not to cry. I finally let him go and stare at the ground as he walks back to the
group. "what? were just gonna just gonna leave her?" it was uri who said it. "uri. just leave it alone." zeke sounds angry. I try my hardest not to
burst into tears.
four pov.
we all walk out of the parlor and me zeke and Uriah decide to stay for a minute. we came in two vehicles so the others head back to zekes. as soon
as the door closes and they drive off me and the guys turn back around to look at six. tori and who ever else works there had left on a break right
before we came so she's there by herself. she releases her fists and sits on the chair at her station. she starts sobbing. she stands up a few seconds
later and throws an empty metal at the wall. It breaks and dents the wall. it would have been heavy. I can hear her scream and she falls on the
ground in a pile of tears. I run in the door and envelope her in my arms. after a few minutes she calms down and looks at me, I see anger, pain,
and sadness in her eyes. " leave me alone now. please." she asks quietly. I nod and stand up and walk out the door. zeke and Uriah don't say a
word as we drive back to his house. we walk in and everyone is just sitting there in silence so we join them.
six. pov.
I calm down and head home. caleb see's me and punches me in the face. he continues punching and kicking and screaming but I don't listen. I just
get enough strength to pull myself up and I punch him so hard he loses consciousness. I run up stairs and throw all my posessions, which isn't a lot,
into a couple suitcases and yank off the mirror in my closet, I've been saving every cent I can since I can remember. I grab the cash, there's well
over 1000,000,000 dollars since I took what I could from my parents and what I got when I got emancipated, and I stuff in in one of the suitcases. I
grab them and run outside and strap them to my motorcycle. I put on my helmet and ride off. I can see caleb chasing me in my rear view mirror. I
get to buds and knock on the door. tori answers it, tori and bud have been married for a year now. she just takes one of the bags and hugs me as
she pulls me inside and closes and bolts the door shut. "bud! hey bud! get in here." she yells. i'm sobbing into her shirt. he comes running in and I
lift my face, when he sees me he runs over and hugs me. he kisses my head and whispers. "stay as long as you need." I pull back and nod.
(time skip to the next day.)
I wake up and get ready for school. yesterday after showing up at tori and buds place she gave me some new piercings and tattoos to take my mind
off everything. I got a belly button piercing and my left ear has piercings all the way up it now. I got dauntless flames on my right calf and my
stomach is covered in different synonyms for the words anger and pain, they dissipate as the get to my sides. I let all my bruises and new piercings
and tattoos show by wearing a black crop top and mini jean shorts. I put on my regular makeup and put my hair up into a high pony tail. I put on
my combat boots and leather jacket and grab my helmet and get on my motorcycle. once I arrive at school I get off my bike and walk inside. I see
the gang staring at me. nobody better say anything to me today. i'm just not in the mood.
