After last nights fiasco with Nick, I was a little nervous to go downstairs. He really did scare me. I slowly left my room and walked downstairs to say hello to Mr. and Mrs. Walters, they were out at a party until 1:00 in the morning so I did not see them last night.

"Hi, Mr and Mrs. Walters, would you guys like breakfast?" I asked knowing the response already.

"No. Why do you keep asking that?!" Mr. Walter asked, "You can't even make cereal, you're a failure as a girl."

"Just checking, anyway, good bye." I said as I walked back upstairs to get ready for school that morning, it was a Monday. Yippee. I went upstairs, and showered. I dried my hair for a good half hour because my hair, like my self, is a giant piece of crap, therefore it takes a half hour to blow dry. I did my hair in soft curls and pinned part of it back, I wore a pink sweater and jeans with tiny pink heels, it took me about 3 minutes to do my makeup, I did a lot of theatre growing up and theatre kids know their way around makeup. I grabbed my backpack and I waited for Nick so we could walk to school.

"Bye mom! Bye dad!" Nick walked past his parents, grabbed an apple and slung his backpack I've his shoulder. He walked up to me and glared, "let's go, can't be late." With that he walked out of the house and I followed.

"I can't believe your parents buy that whole 'perfect student' routine. I swear, you're late for every class. Who are you trying to fool?" I ask as Nick and I walk down the 2 blocks to our school.

"Babe, I'm a player, and players lie, and we're good at it too. I suppose you're just going to have to deal with it. People like me, and they don't like you." He was right, people just don't like me. I know why, like Nick said last night, I'm ugly, awkward and a waste of space. I was silent for the rest of the walk to school. Thinking about meeting Lin yesterday. That's was the best moment of my existence. I kind of wish I told him that Nick punched me, maybe he could have gotten me out of this mess. You never know, life's crap anyways, I guess I was right in not telling him, I deserve this life. I deserve it.

We walked up to the school at 8:25 right as the first bell rung. I walked up the stairs to my first class, Spanish, I like Spanish, I'm decent at it too. After an hour of Spanish, I went downstairs to choir for an hour, I love choir. I love to sing, it's my best attribute, like seriously it's all I can do in life. Also, I sit in front of this really cute boy, his name is William, he sings bass like nobody's business, he's nice to me. So the class usually goes well.

"Ok guys, we still need to finalize our competition set, so we're going to do flight song, is that ok with you guys?" My teacher asked and the class agreed on the song, "secondly, how do you guys feel about Hark I Hear The Harps Eternal?" My class again said yes to this one, I love this song, it's an a Capella arrangement of a hymn and it has a small Soprano solo. I really want the small soprano solo.

After choir, I happily walked out of class, having recieved the solo, when 2 boys, Sam and Luke, pushed me into the wall.

"I heard you broke up Sarah and Nick, Nicks my homie, you don't screw with him, you should know better by now." Sam said, Sam was at least 6 foot while Luke was a little shorter, at 5'10.

"I'm sorry, like I told Nick, I didn't mean to. I liked Sarah, she was really nice." After I said that Luke kneed me in the gut, I doubled over and slide down the wall, that's the 3rd time in the last 24 hours that I've been kneed there.

"That couldn't of hurt that bad, you're such a weakling, Nick was right." Sam rudely pointed out, after saying this he promptly kicked me in the same spot.

"Hey! What the heck are you guys doing?!" William ran out of the choir classroom to see me on the floor with Sam and Luke standing over me, "leave her alone!"

"That's cool with us, we're done with her anyways!" With that they ran off to their 3rd period class. I started to get up, knowing that I was going to be late to Biology.

"Hey, hey, don't hurt yourself," William said as he helped me up. "Who were those guys?" He asked as he helped me walk to the nurses office.

"They're my Foster brothers friends, he broke up with his girlfriend last night and they blame me." I confessed.

"I'm sorry Abigail, remember, you can always call me, here, give me your phone, I'll put my number in it. " I handed him my phone and he made himself a contact and he texted himself 'Hi!' Then returned my phone. We walked into the nurses together and he did all the talking, "hey, my friend just got kicked in the stomach, can you check it out?" He asked the nurse.

"Of course sweethearts, that's what I'm here for! Come on back." She led me to an adjoining room and  lifted my sweater to reveal a massive purple bruise.

"I'm not looking I promise" William said, walking in with his hand over his eyes, due to his lack of sight he rammed into the counter, "OW!" I laughed

"It's ok, you can look!" I assured him and he uncovered his eyes.

"Holy crap!" He said as he saw the giant bruise, the nurse was getting me an ice pack, she handed it to me and told me to go to my 3rd period, and she wrote William and I a note, since we had the same class. He helped me down the hallway to our class, and I was ecstatic, who would of thought that getting beat up in the hallway, could have such great repercussions.
