I shot up from my bed in a cold sweat once again the nightmares seem to be getting worse. It’s been a week since I talked to Lucas properly, I’ve been avoiding him big time and he knows that, but he doesn’t seem to care that I not only don’t give a shit what he wants to say but that I also don’t want some cheat shit apology he doesn’t even mean. Anyway all it means is that I’ve been out of the house more with I’m proud of myself for I’ve even made a new friend someone who just moved to town a few days ago me marina and him have become best friends already and he’s hilarious, Marcos been weirdly trying to talk to me more which is annoying because I just wat to get this crush over and done with and he isn’t helping lie seriously go back to only talking to me when necessary. Eventually I have a shower and get ready I get a face time call from the group chat I wait a couple minutes to finish getting dressed then when I answer I’m immediately greeted with marina and Leos smiling faces “ahh finally I’ve been trying to tell Leo he can’t get out of the car when you drop the kiddos off this morning’ marina starts saying as soon as she realizes I’ve joined the call “ oh come on I don’t look that scary” Leo defends himself I chuckle then say “ actually dude between the piercings tattoos and leather jacket you look dangerous” he grins then says with a sly smile “ dangerously attractive” we all laugh as I say ‘ sure buddy sure we’ll go with tha- wait are you playing a soap opera right now” “well yeah what would you like more this or kidz bop your choice” I sit the phone on my dresser and put my hands up “okay okay sorry” by the time we’ve gotten to school were almost late as conner did not ant to go to preschool at all it took all the teachers and marina to coax him off me we should have just used a crowbar would have been quicker. We running don the hall to get to class when we run into a new teacher who started the day after I got back and she di not like me at all “what are you doing out of class” god her voice sounds like she smokes a pack every 12 hours Jesus take a break man Leo speaks first “ sorry miss we all drive together and there was an issue so were late” “what are your names I’ll have to write you up” what the fuck “ what miss we’re not even ten minutes into class were not that late “ ah ah ah I don’t want to hear complaining what are your name we tell her out names ad I notice she looks like like the wrinkly bird thing from dr sues “ ah Alina you must be the ne of been warned of huh the troublemaker” bitch  “no I’m the grinch who stole Christmas sorry you’ve got the wrong person” I heard Leo and marina snort from behind me “ I will not except any sass or sarcasm from a student are we clear detention this afternoon with me and you’ll sit with me at lunch if I don’t see you it’ll be a week of detentions after school ok” ha joke son her “ actually miss I’m not allowed to be kept in at lunch or after school as I pick u my siblings even ask the principle” she does not look happy she’s going red damn id she a tomato” I do not care what you say as I will not believe any silly lies you have to say I doubt the principle the classy and responsible man he is would make such accommodations for you” then she looks me up and down as if I the dirt on the bottom of her shoe “I’ll see you at lunch miss carter and if you don’t show up ill come and get you myself ” “ bring pizza” bitch who the fuck doe this woman think she is like a about to smack this bitch “ I’m going to kill her” “ stop lets go to class your not killing anyone on my watch ali” “ then look away Mari” if she uses my nickname ill use hers I start to walk the way miss bitchy or miss lizard I haven’t decided yet when marina grabs my arms and Leo grabs my legs what the hell  are they doing “what the hell put me down fuck wits” no shut up” damn
