Once it was five in the morning, I woke Vanessa up, and we both rushed down to the garage where her car was parked.She settled into the driver's seat, and I climbed into the passenger seat.The engine of the car roared to life, breaking the quiet of the early morning.We didn’t care if it woke the neighbors.The garage door groaned as it lifted, and a cool wave of dawn air rushed inside.The sky outside was still a dull shade of blue-gray, the sun only beginning to think about rising.Vanessa pressed the accelerator the moment we cleared the driveway.The tires screeched slightly against the pavement before gripping the road, and the car shot forward faster than I expected.My body jerked back into the seat, the seatbelt tightening across my chest.Streetlights blurred past us one after another.The roads were mostly empty at that hour, with just a few delivery trucks and the occasional sleepy driver.Vanessa took advantage of it. Her foot stayed heavy on the gas pedal, the speedomet

MADDY POINT OF VIEW.Later that day, Vanessa and I walked around the school surroundings. We went to the fields and baseball areas—somewhere far away from where other students were—so I wouldn’t in any way run into Sloane or De Shawn. I'm not sure how much longer I have to hide away from him, but I'm willing to do so.Seconds grew to minutes, and then night came. Fortunately, we weren't in the same dining hall. Shawn and Sloane were in Hall One, and we were in Hall Three. After dinner, I resigned to my room as quickly as possible. I lay in my new bed at the extreme end of the room, somewhere far away from him. And I made sure to cover myself up so he wouldn't notice anything or even have a glimpse of my face in my sleep.I knew when he came into the room—flocks of boys had accompanied him back inside late that night. I don't know where they were coming back from, but their noises woke everyone up from their slumber. However, no one dared to question him or complain. It's barely a full

MADDY’S POINT OF VIEWIt’s been about five minutes, and the men are nowhere to be found, but we’re still standing at the bottom of the mountain with sand sacks tied to our ankles, thinking of how we’re supposed to climb the mountain and come back.Another loud bell rang out, and my face flushed with anger. Breakfast was over,I had missed it. I looked to my left; Vanessa was standing there. To my right were the boys, our eyes fixed on the mountain, but none of us was moving.Honestly, I didn’t know how to start, even if I wanted to move right now. How was I supposed to climb a mountain with my supposed enemies as a team? I tried to look past what they did, but I just couldn’t. Each glance only made my chest tighten with rage. If they had stayed on their own and never come for the pillow, we wouldn’t be in this mess. We’d probably be out there with our mates, having breakfast.“Look, girls, we have to be a team here and stop hating each other,” one of the boys started.I shifted my gaze

MADDY'S POINT OF VIEW.De-Shawn straightened, his jaw tight and expression hard.My heart raced in my chest, and my hands started to tremble as I silently prayed that this wouldn't escalate further.His eyes darted from Vanessa to me. “Who the hell is this lunatic?”“Lunatic?” Vanessa chuckled. “The only lunatic here is you, who refuses to move the hell on from your ex!”The words felt like a slap across his cheeks. He glanced around, ensuring no one had heard.He smoothed his shirt, his eyes scanning the mall before finally fixing his gaze on us. “Maddy, you're making a mistake, and this will blow back hard on you,” he warned.Vanessa hissed and turned to me. “Are you okay? Did he hurt you anywhere?”I shook my head. “No, he didn’t. I’m fine. I think we should just leave, Vanny.”“No, we’re not leaving!” she said firmly, turning back to Shawn. “The only person that needs to leave is this asshole!”De-Shawn scoffed. “Who the hell is this stupid brat?”“Maddy, who is she? What’s her b
