Episode 5

I woke up, I didn't know whether I was on my period or I was just feeling under the weather. I felt irritated, dizzy, nauseous. I didn't want to tell my parents about it because it didn't feel the need to… I lifted myself off my bed, and made my way to the shower. My uniform got wet so luckily we cleaned it right away. But the bruises didn't wash off like the stains. My body was strenched in bruises aching like hell, I didn't know who to tell and Estella was probably sleeping. It was so early in the morning, what to do, what to do…

It was so early in the morning, maybe the aching that my body was suffering from woke me upI didn't want to cry, it didn't hurt like when Brock horse kicked me on my calve. My dad wasn't happy about that, he was sure to tell him off. But something inside felt the need to cry, to let it all out. Yet only a single tear fell from my eye and that was it.

I live further to Stel, she lives around the city while I live out here where all the rich kids are. They say you get better education here, yet your survival is questionable. I took the bus to school like always, hid in the back with my earphones stuck inside my ears. The bruises painfully crawled up my body as I sat down on the furthest seat. My friends on the bus came up against me, but something felt odd. “Are you alright Rose?” Jamie asks. “Huh? Uh yeah… i'm alright” Trinity and Katie huddled up against me. “So? Whos heart did you break this time?” the girls giggled. I was known as the boy magnet, because every boy that laid their eyes on me had a crush on me.

“Very funny” the girls laughed continually and I cracked a bit myself. It was going on normal and fun, then something weird crawled up my spine and I started feeling weird. “No way!” “Is that really him?” “why is he on this bus? Doesn't he take a fancy car to school?” his sharp blue eyes and dirty blond hair caught my attention faster than a squirrel finding a nut. “You’ve got to be kidding me!” I whispered. “That's Dylan Devins, he's got a sharp tongue and the best of looks. I heard he takes a limousine to school, how cliche is that!” Trinity was my least favorite friend, I've known her since elementary yet she ruins everyone's life with rumors as well everyone's ears with ranting.

“Sadly no girl could ever get closer than five meters, the last left the school almost taking sucide for just writing him a poor love letter. Such a shame, his charming looks are a waste” Its true, his pretty face can't cover up his demon-like personality. I know from experience... “Someone said he saw him beating up a girl near the shops! She-'' I shoved back my earphones blasting my music to the loudest volume. Our eyes met, he seemed… Weird. He didn't give me a glare, but he didn't look necessarily angry. He seemed bothered. He then turned away, and a chunk of relief just lifted. I got off the bus, and separated from my friends while making my way to my classroom.

 It was a quick but odd sesion, a stare kept creeping behind my ear. It was weird. The same feeling occurred to every other classroom but two. History was postponed till the last block, no idea why but it ruined the schedule. I looked through the reflection and he was staring at me...

“Alright now partners, isn't it amazing! Now your partners are written on the page in front of you.

It was a nightmare, just like I predicted we were partners. “Ugh kill me” iw whispered loudly so he could hear it, as I stuck my head to the desk. “Miss I think there's a misconception going on, who would want to be with that!” His boys led a huge laugh, and I gave him the evils. “Your acting like I need you, I'm sorry but people that have the education of first graders aren't on my list as partners' ' We started to yell at eachother, back and forth.

“Alright enough! I saw the glaring you both gave each other, and the grade difference between the two of you is far from comparison! So you two as partners would be splendid” I smirked, even snickered. “That means?” he asked. Made me laugh even more. “She's calling you umb, and your grade sucks so she partnered you up with me because you're an idiot” I smiled, everyone's jaw dropped. They couldn't believe what I said.

“No Rosabelle... i didn't say that…. Entirely…. Ugh, You two are ruining my class and my concentration, so if i don't see a good report as well as an improvement to your partnership you'll clean the entire school top to bottom do you understand!” We both turned to each other, and rolled our eyes. As be both answered “Yes Miss”
