"Trust is only a five letter word, but it can be misused in so many different ways." ~Ayjee Grogan Rylan is starting her first year of high school when she finds out life isn't happy like in the movies. She's young, naive, and as a result, she makes enemies as well as friends. Even with the added support of Cas, Tuck, and Dani, Rylan's biggest problems won't be solved so easily. Her English teacher is a monster hiding behind the guise of a well-mannered, handsome fella and her worst nightmare, Blake, is a guy who will stop at nothing to break her. When both single her out among the crowds, Rylan is afraid to tell the truth. But sometimes revealing the truth can set you free. There's more at stake here than just her life. Can she stand up to the people who scare her most, or will she become just another statistic? --------- © 2013 Miranda JK This story has been rewritten in a (hopefully) error free and more well written version that can be found here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/40386719-~my-teacher-hits-me~-rewritten
