It’s Monday already, it came to soon, I’m not ready. Connor stayed at my house again. He went to his house to get his things for school. I told him he didn’t have to stay but he was determined. My Mom was supposed to come home on Sunday but her trip was extended until Tuesday. I just lie awake waiting for my alarm to go off at 7:00 am it’s 6:45 am. I feel safe in Connors arms, I don’t want this moment to end, but it has to I have to keep moving so I will but I’m doing it my way. My alarm goes off and wakes up Connor. He kisses my forehead then I stand up. “Do we have to get up right now? Can’t we be a little late?” He said.
“No, I think we have missed enough school.” I say.
“I’m not say we not go I’m saying we can be late.”
“I know but if I get back into that bed neither of us will get out.”
“Your probably right.” Connor said. I go into the bathroom to get ready. I come out and Connor is still in bed. I take a pillow and hit him with it and say “Hurry up or we are going to be late.” Connor gets out of bed and goes into the bathroom. I sit at my vanity and start to put on my makeup. About an hour later when we are both ready it’s 8:20 am. “Do you wanna stop at Tims before school?” I ask because school doesn’t start until 9:00 am and it only takes fifteen minutes to get there. “Sure.” Connor replied.
When we got to Tim Mortans Parker and his idiot friends were there. I was so ready to explode like do they have nothing better to do? But I was with Connor and I didn’t want to tell him what happened mainly because I don’t know how he will react. We haven’t been in any situations like this yet and I really don’t want to test it out today. We walk up to the cash and order then over to the place where you wait for the drinks. I look around and see Parker staring at me. He kept staring even after I made eye contact with him. I turn to Connor and grab his hand then our drinks come out we took them and walked out of Tim Mortans. We were halfway to the car when we hear some say “Are you really dating that type of girl?” we turn to see Parker and a group of his friends about five feet behind us. “Excuse me?” Connor says.
“You heard me.” Parker replies. I could see that Connor was getting mad but I could tell he was trying to hide it. I pull Connor’s hand to keep walking. Connor looks at me and says “There is no way I’m just walking away.” So I let go of his hand and told him to stay where he was. Then I walked up to Parker and said “If you have an issue with me talk to me.” Parker looked at me and said “Fine, I think that your a bitch and that you should go back to where you came from.”
“Well your opinion doesn’t matter to me and I think that your head is so far up your ass that you can’t tell how much I really don’t give a shit about what you say.” I started to walk away when Parker grabbed my arm. I turned and punched him in the face as hard as I could. He let go of my arm and fell backwards. I walked up to Connor grabbed his hand and walked to his car.
We get into Connor’s car. He turns and looks at me and kisses me, then he starts the car and starts to drive to school. “I can’t believe you punched Parker in the face.” Connor said. “I can’t either.” I say. We get to school and I knew something was different, I knew people knew. As Connor and I walk down the hall, I could feel the eyes on me. I turn to Connor and say “I don’t know if I can do this.” He looks at me and says “I know you can.” We see Sof and she walks up to us. “Have you seen what they have been saying about you.” Sof said. “Oh believe me we have.” I say.
“What are you going to do?”
“Nothing, there is nothing we can do. If people believe everything that they hear that’s their stupidity not mine.”
“That’s true, but are you okay?”
“I’ll live. All I need is you guys.” Connor walks to his class and Sof and I walk to ours. On our way to class I tell Sof everything about what happened between Connor, Parker and I. She was pissed.
We get to class and sit. Parker walks into class and his eye looks swollen and looks like it’s turn purple. His seat is next to mine and he sits and whispers “Bitch.” and I whisper “At least I didn’t get beat up by a girl.” he turned to me and gave me a dirty look then looks away. The rest of the time Parker didn’t even look in my direction. By the time lunch rolled around everyone was talking about Parker’s black eye. They had somehow found out that I was the one that gave it to him. I think that most of them were just shocked that someone finally did something about his attitude and put him in his place and for it to have been a girl I think made it ten times better. It seemed like people were avoiding me now but hey I’m cool with that. I see Connor, he smiles. We start to walk outside to go out for lunch. “Everyone is talking about how you gave Parker that black eye and I haven’t heard anything about anything else. I think people are just mind blown.” I laugh and I felt good. This isn’t going to overtake me. My life, my rules.
