Fast Times at Clairemont High

"Hey Azalea, were here." Jaime said as he dropped me off at my house. I kissed him and told him thanks.

I walked inside to see my parents fighting once more. Luckily, I could easily sneak by them. I ran upstairs and locked myself in my room. I silently let tears roll down my cheeks.

I changed into my pyjamas and went to bed.

I put on a Suicide Silence shirt and some grey skinny jeans. I slipped on my Docs again. I grabbed my backpack and headed out the door.

A horn honked and startled me as we were walking to school. It was Tony.

"Hey Turtle. How's my little girl?" I asked. Tonys eyes lit up.

"She great. Thanks for letting her stay with me." He said shyly. He gestured for me to get in, and I gingerly opened the door.

"She likes you a lot Tony. Fuck, she's talked about you in her sleep. I'd say Aud has a thing for a certain Turtle." I said, smiling. He let out a little laugh. We talked a bit before we arrived in the school parking lot.

"Hey Lyric." I said. I hugged her and kissed Jaime. We walked into the hall and parted our separate ways to our lockers.

"Hey, you fat whore. I see you've been eating a steady diet of McDonalds still. It's a shame that Jaime is still with you. You should just give up, sweetie." A voice said. I turned to see an army of skanks.

"Why don't you leave me the fuck alone? At least I eat instead of skipping every meal. And don't call me a whore, I've never even slept with anyone. Meanwhile, you've been giving all the guys your STDs." I said snidely. Before I knew it, I was on the floor and I felt multiple kicks and punches delivered to my body. Someone grabbed my red hair and slammed my head up against my locker. The bell rang and the crowd slowly left. No one asked if I was okay, they just laughed. I just grabbed my stuff and walked to class.

"What the hell happened?" Lyric asked.

"I don't want to talk about it." I said.

"Tell me!" She prodded. I felt my chest tightening with anxiety. I stuttered, not being able to speak.

"Mrs. Mitchels, can you come here?" Mrs. Brachy asked. I walked slowly over to her desk.

"What happened?" She asked in a low whisper.

"Uh, I was beat up by some girls..." I said, my voice fading and unsteady.

"We'll talk after class." She said. I walked back to my seat and continued with the lesson.

"Do you know you did this to you?" She asked. I nodded.

"Madeline Monroe... And all of her friends." I said. She offered to help me clean myself up.

She he pulled out a first aid kit from her purse and went to work. She cleaned all my cuts and put bandages on them. She gave me a note explaining why I was late to class, and I went to my locker and hurriedly grabbed my things. I rushed into class and gave the note to the teacher.

"Late again, Miss Mitchels?" My teacher said before reading the note. He gave me an 'I'm sorry.' look. I nodded and began to write songs in my note book.

"Azalea, I want to take you out on a date." Jaime said shyly. I smiled at him.

"I'd love to." I said. It made me happy how Jaime was not getting all freaked out by my friendships.

"I'll pick you up at eight." He said, smiling a silly Jaime smile.
