The next day I went to school. I didn't have another altercation with Allan when I got home yesterday as he had already left for work.When I got to school, my friends bombarded me with questions of concern. I had to convince them that I was okay. Thankfully, the pain in my stomach that I had yesterday was gone.The day went by quickly and Lucas, Kevin, Jasmine and I left school together. Jasmine had asked us to come to her house after school to watch movies. I didn't decline, because I did not want to miss another time of hanging out with my friends.After watching two movies and enjoying my friends company, it was time for us to leave. Lucas, Kevin and I bid Jasmine goodbye and left. We walked for a while, before we split directions.I was almost home when my phone started ringing. I took it from my pocket and saw that it was Miranda. I answered it. "Hello Miranda." I greeted her."Hello Kayla. I was wondering if it is possible for you to come to the cafe for an hour?" She asked. "I'

The next day, I was at my locker, getting my books for first period, when Carson walked up to me and leaned on the locker beside mine."What is it now, Carson?" I asked.Carson grinned. "I hope you haven't made any plans tonight, because we have a date." He said, winking at me."Please don't flatter yourself. You are only going to help me with maths and that's all. Mr. Malcolm already told me." I said, closing my locker and turned to him. "I know you must be thrilled, but just so you know, I'm not happy about this. Why did you agree to do this by the way? I'm sure you have better things to do than tutor me."He shrugged. "I don't know. It seems like fun."I rolled my eyes. "Sure it will be fun for you. You just want an excuse to torture me."He laugh. "Whatever you say, Kitten." He replied, then asked. "Where are we going to work, your house or mine?""Your house." I said quickly, without thinking about it."Okay then. My house it is." He said, smiling mischievously. "Wait for me in t

Kayla's POVThe weekend had passed and now today was Monday. It was the end of the day and Jasmine and I were walking to her house. I had promised Carson at school that I was going to come to his house at 6 o'clock so he could continue with his tutoring.Right now, Jasmine had invited me to her house to help her pick out an outfit for Saturday night. She and her family had a dinner party at her aunt's house. Lucas and Kevin said that they didn't want a part in that. They said that they would be bored to death watching Jasmine try on different clothes over and over again. They also didn't want to suffer through the agony of listening to us talking about clothes.I had known that they wouldn't want to come. Jasmine and I had only been teasing them by asking them to tag along. I smiled to myself as I remembered the expression on their faces. Jasmine lives ten minutes from school, so we were there quickly.When we got to Jasmine's house, we saw that no one was home. Jasmine's mom was at w

I was soaked from head to toe.My entire body was shivering from the clothes that clung to my body and my hair was wet.I was now sheltering under the last bus stop that was near the school. I can't believe it, as soon as I was near school, the rain caught me.Okay, I said to myself. I have to leave this bus stop, if I have any intention of reaching school on time.I took a deep breath and ran as fast as I could, this time I didn't stop until I reach the school's door. I opened the door quickly and head straight for the bathroom.When I was in the bathroom, I wring my hair dry and used the paper towel that was in the bathroom to dry off. It was not much use because I was completely wet.I looked at myself and sighed. I definitely can't go to class like this. I left the bathroom and walked to Jasmine's locker. Hopefully, she has some extra clothes in her locker to lend me. I knew for sure that I didn't have any.I was glad when I saw Jasmine at her locker getting her books. She turned

On Sunday afternoon, I was ready to go to the concert where Kevin was going to perform, but I was in my room pacing the floor. Allan was in the living room at this current moment. I heard bottles clanging together, so I knew he was drinking. That means he will be down there for a long time, until he's knocked out.I looked at my watch once again. It was 2:20pm. Kevin's concert started at 3:00pm and if I didn't leave soon, I will not be able to make it. I didn't want to call Kevin and tell him I couldn't make it. I know that he would be really disappointed.A crazy thought came into my mind and I walked over to my bedroom window. Maybe I could sneak out through there. I opened my window and look down. Instantly, I discarded that idea. What was I even thinking? It was a long way down and there was nothing beside the house to help me down. I could get seriously hurt.I closed the window and began to pace the floor again. You need to think of something, Kayla...Ten minutes later, I was s
