Elliot's pov

I was sleeping peacefully up until someone decided to wake me up.

"Elliot wake up" a familiar voice said while they where shaking me

"Leave me alone, go away " i reply

"Elliot come on you have to wake up " they said

"Fuck man! I'm up what the hell do you need? " I said whilst getting up

"Take a shower and come downstairs. we'll go get your mom's ashes once you are ready, come on sleeping beauty, up you go." said jackie as she left my room

It has exactly been two days since my mom passed away. I moved in with Jackie yesterday, everything was fixed already.

I wanted to keep my mom's ashes before I let them go.She always loved the ocean, we would sometimes go and she would tell me "it's beautiful isn't it honey?" I'd tell her yes, but she'd tell me "but it's not as beautiful as you honey you remind me so much of me when I was your age, I loved to feel free , listen to music, smile through every single pain I felt. I know what it feels like to have a broken heart but life goes on honey we both are fighters we may fall or get hurt but we still stand stronger every time something happens " I smiled at that thought if you were here mom I miss you so much but I have to stay strong for you.

I got up after Jackie went downstairs and picked out my favorite black leather jacket white plain shirt ,bra ,underwear ,black jeans,and black vans I got some huff socks too. After I showered and got ready I went downstairs to eat.

"hello Elliot "

I froze in my spot that voice sounded familiar ....Brandon. I turn around to see him inches away from me

"What do you want" i say coldly

"Came to talk to you " said Brandon

"For?" i asked already moody

"Just wanted to say sorry for your mother's loss and i came to take you to school " he said with a small smile

"Look I don't need your pity okay and I can drive myself to school " i told him

"I'm not giving you pity okay and I want to drive you to school and no is not an option Elliot" he said smirking

"Look if you just came here to irritate me and demand me to go with you to school, why don't you back the hell off and leave me alone" i shot back

"fine! I was trying to be nice after what I did okay. I regret it every day, I regret it because you were nice to me in the past okay... you were there for me when no one else was... I was a dick to you and I hate myself for the way I treated you. I'm sorry" he cries out

"Now that the good girl turned bad everyone likes her. like I said Brandon sorry isn't going to help. I loved you okay I loved you but now every time I see you I get disgusted and I feel like killing you and I'm not afraid to do so and I will if I have to I think you should go " I told him while opening the door for him to leave i said "you were the most important person in my life, besides my mother, and you ruined me Brandon, you made me fall in love and then broke me. Here is the thing though, you weren't the first one to leave and break me. My father had the pleasure of breaking me first." i finish

"I'm -"

"Drop it... just shut the fuck up okay now leave" i say while holding in tears

after he left I waited for jackie to come

"Ready? we'll go pick up my mom's ashes after school okay " i tell Jackie as she comes downstairs

"Okay let's go" she replies both of us forgetting she made breakfast

We arrived at school and went straight to our lockers to get our books when jessica the schools barbie came up to me

"well well well if it isn't Elliot, the school's fat chicken " she said laughing along with her two purple minions (no offense to minions)

"If it isn't the slut herself" i reply and continue "now what the hell do you want"

"Just stopped by to tell you to back off okay! This is my school not yours. Go back to your stupid house and stay there and you might as well kill yourself " she said

we already got attention might as well enjoy

"look here bitch I don't see your name written on the school and second of all you're the one who should leave back to the corner like the slut you are (not offending anyone sorry if we did) and check yourself for STD or HIV because you sure ass hell need to. Seeing how many guys you fucked" I smirked and turned to everyone watching

"guy's you might want to check yourself you might have caught a disease" I turned back to Jessica and said "what the venom you speak don't want your tongue getting cut now do you and you better watch your back or else you'll see the consequences of your actions bitch " I punched her after I said that then left everyone shocked except Jackie who was smirking along with me. From the corner of my eye I could see Brandon looking at me with fear in his eyes and my smirk grew bigger enjoying the way people feared me guess this day is good after all
