"You were mine the second you put your signature on that contract." He looked at me with pure lust and dominance in his eyes.
"F*ck you."
He smirks and moves closer to me, coming to my side of the booth and caging me ag...

"Ugh. God you're so annoying."
Mercedes' voice booms through the living room causing everyone's attention to shift to her.
She storms over to me and grabs me by the collar on my shirt. From the corner of my eye I see Mera point her phone to the scene.
"Why can't you do anything right?" she shakes me when I don't answer.
"You have 3 F's?" what? No I don't, I have straight A's. I have to or else I won't get that scholarship to Kansas University and ill never be able to leave this shithole.
"This, is what I mean when I say nobody will ever love you, you piece of shit. You have the people at your school looking at me like im a bad mother." I mean...
"Your just as useless as your parents. That's probably why they gave you up, because they realized that 2 useless shits is better than 3. Oh and also-" before she can finish, Mera interupts her.
"Yea, mom? That's me, I got the Fs simply because I do not care. Oh and the teachers don't like me. One of them is mad I started a rumor about her sleeping with the janitor so now her husband is divorcing her. Not my fault they got caught leaving the bathroom together." she shrugs her shoulders and stops the video.
Mitchell's phone dings and he opens it and laughs.
Great, I'm sure she sent it to the whole school like last time.
Ugh. This us so embarrassing. And how could she say that about my parents when she doesn't even know them or what happened to them?
"Oh? Well just make sure you get them up. Do whatever you did with Mr. Jones." she drops me and I fall on my butt.
Okay, ow.
She walks away and goes back into the kitchen. I have to get out of this place. I can't do this anymore.
Between the twins laughing at their phones, Mercedes singing in the kitchen, Kevin yelling at some sports channel, and Penny doing her hair for her imaginary YouTube channel, my headaches are getting worse and worse.
Every day I spend here, I just wish things were different.
Maybe one day when I move to Norchester, I'll finally be happy.

"Oh my gosh, look at miss useless." the students in the hall whisper as I walk by as if I can't hear them.
"Look it's the orphan girl." I just keep my head straight as I walk through the crowded hall.
This is just our school but Mera is an influencer so she has millions of followers who have seen that video.
"Hey orphan girl, want to meet my parents." a 'jock' says and the whole hall starts laughing.
I feel the tears roll down my cheeks and as if It couldn't have gotten worse, everyone starts throwing paper balls at me and saying names like,
"What's wrong crybaby?"
Or,
"Need some help finding your class, miss useless?"
I wipe away my tears when I finally make it my class but again, they threaten to fall as everyone in their seats turn to look at me.
Everyone but the teacher at the front throws their heads back in laughter.
I have this class with the twins who look up from their phones and smirk at the drama they've caused.
I take a seat at the back of the class and pretend as if I don't hear all of the mean things everyone says to me.
But I hear everything.
