never forgive u
Author's note:
in my story i wanted to make everyone understand that life is not perfect and that there are ups and downs i think this would relate to me because my brother got put in a mental hospital at nine years old around the beginning of the school year i have trouble at home with my behavior and one thing that helps me is writting storys im currently witting a book on my own free time
¨Go to your g*dd*mn room avery,¨ mom says.
¨ I wasn't me I swear ¨ I said.
¨I don't want to hear it¨ mom said.
I stormed past the kitchen into my room and made sure I slammed the door HARD but that still didn't make me feel good because the second the door closed shut I could feel the lump in my throat forming. like if I wanted to cry within 3 seconds I was crying the type of tears you can't control the type that controls you. all because my stupid stupid sister decided it would be a good idea to put a vape in my g*dd*mn room to hide it. I looked up at the ceiling imagining how I'm going to get myself out of this mess but all I could think about was Oliver. I needed him right now. He was the only person that could bring me from 10 to 0 in a second. Then I remembered I had an extra phone in the back of my dresser.
I got up so quickly that I probably broke something in my room but I went straight to my dresser and got the phone. I was struggling to find the power button since it was dark in the room and the only light was from my led light around the ceiling. ¨found it¨ I whispered
just then I hear a knock on the door ¨ coming in¨
I jumped on my bed and covered myself my heart beating so fast I heard the door open and then a soft ¨hey¨ only I can't tell who it is ¨im so sorry¨ ana! I uncovered myself and I was about to tell her shit then
¨please let me explain¨ ana shouts
It took everything out of me not to scream at her but I held it in ¨go explain¨ I said
¨i-i was scared okay I was scared mom would find out so in the morning before you went to school I went in your room to try and hide it I was going to hide it in your makeup but I heard someone coming in so I dropped it and it was you telling me to get out and I did not have any time to pick it up so I just got out¨ she said
I just stayed quiet I had no words for her
¨ I promise I didn't want you to get in trouble¨ she said
¨you done¨ i said
¨yea¨ ana said
¨first of all why in your right mind would you have a vape on you and you are so lucky mom did not believe me because if she did you die in like 3 seconds ¨ I said
¨ I'm so so sorry I was just holding it for my friend and I don't know I got scared I did not know it could have caused all this¨ ana said
Suddenly I felt bad like it was my fault I would have not walked into the room she wouldn't have dropped it and none of this would have happened
¨ it's okay¨
Ana's face lit up
I pat my bed on the spot next to me
And ana walks over and sits next to me ¨thank you¨
¨for what¨ i say
¨being you¨she says
The next day I woke up and ana is right by my side and I hear a small ring A PHONE!!!! I reach into my pocket and grab the phone to see Oliver texted me
Oliver: babe are you mad at me
OMG !!! he thinks I'm mad I start laughing and ana wakes up oh sh*t ¨hey how did u sleep ¨ I said
¨good is that a phone¨
¨ye-¨
¨don't worry I won't snitch but who are you texting¨ ana says
¨oliver can u believe he thinks I'm mad at him¨
¨dude ¨
¨YESS¨ ¨hold on let me text him back¨ I say
Me: hi no I'm not mad just got my phone taken away
Oliver: Bro you scared me
Me: sorry How did you sleep
Oliver: good And you
Me: good I miss U
Oliver: I miss U too you want to hang out later
Me: I can ask But most likely no
Oliver: GO ask, please
Me: Um I just got in trouble Sir I have to wait for a little
Oliver: OK I love you
Me: I love you too
Oliver: bye
You liked Oliver's message
¨HELLO, ¨ ana says ¨ I think you forgot I was here, and eww¨
I laugh ¨omg you're such a baby your 12 get over it soon you will have someone to text ALL DAY¨
¨NOOO, I only love me¨
¨sure¨
¨its true¨ and pulls out her phone and starts texting someone I just go on TikTok but then I hear the sound of my mom's feet dragging on the floor and they are coming closer and closer so I stuff the phone up the sleeve too my sweater just in time before the door swings open ¨ana out I need to talk to avery¨ mom says
¨k¨ ana says
Ana walks out and shuts the door my mom sits on my bed ¨listen yesterday I went a little overboard so I apologize here's your phone and I am going to listen to your side of the story so go¨
What the hell is happening my mom is not the apologetic type I have exactly 3 seconds to come up with a lie ¨im holding it for a friend I swear I met her 3 days ago I promise I never did it do a drug test ¨ I said so fast I took a very long breath after my mom looked so confused ¨um okay well I was hoping you said that and I will take a drug test now that u say
**** 30 min later****
¨'ll be back ¨ mom says as she gets off the car and into the liquor store
I was not mad tho I gave her the idea 3 minutes later she gets back in the car and tested me and I'm not even going to lie I was worried what if for some strange reason, it came out positive my heart beating really fast time is up now we have to look at it thank god it is negative I let out a little sigh ¨ I think I owe you an apology but give that back to your friend¨
¨I promise so now that your not mad at me can I go out with Oliver he just texted me asking if I want to go out¨
¨ I would say no but I guess you can¨
¨thank you so so so much mom I love you¨
My mom laughs
I texted Oliver
me: Oliver
*Oliver has left you on seen *
I started looking thru peoples stories and saw Oliver posted something A GIRL . What the hell? I was so confused and mad but all I could do was delete the message. But i did not have the guts to tell him anything
*** The next day ***
I reach over and grab my phone 1 more minute so I press snooze and go back to bed but then it goes off again it is like the universe is telling me that today will be the day I remember for the rest of my life but then I remember it's the first day of 10th grade I get up and go to my make up I start doing my makeup and one I'm finished I look at myself in the mirror fair skin tone and hazle eyes with the smallest splash of my freckles peaking through. Now time for an outfit I look in my closet and pick some light blue jeans with a black shirt and a black sweater over then I get a text from Oliver
Oliver: hey what are you wearing
I just had the filling I wanted to leave him on seen but I couldn't
Me: a black shirt light blue jeans and a black sweater
Oliver: and your shoes
Me: oh idk help me
Oliver: Jordan 4 black cats
Me: ok see you at school
*Oliver liked the message *
I changed and started straitening my hair when I heard my mom wake up a few seconds go by and I hear her feet dragging toward my room then a small knock followed by the door opening ¨hey it is almost time to go you ready¨
¨ no I just started doing my hair give me 15 please¨ I said
¨okay but hurry or you will be late¨ mom said
She walked out of the room and I continued doing my hair when I finished and asked me if I could put some makeup on her and I told her yes I did a natural look on her with just bb cream concealer and bronzer then I did her lips and we got in our car on the way to school we stopped to get Starbucks ¨ your turn to order¨ says ana
¨really¨ I say
¨yup¨
¨what do you want¨ I say
¨iced caramel macchiato with extra caramel¨
¨can I take your order¨ the cashier said
¨yes please can I have an iced caramel macchiato with extra caramel and a strawberry acai with half mango dragon fruit base no water and the other half lemonade with no ice and a cup of ice on the side¨ I said
The cashier looked annoyed she gave me my total and I paid I look back at my sister¨ you might as well take the whole damn store your order was so big¨
¨shut up¨ I said in a playful way
We walked back into the car and drove to school but i- i could think about how do i walk in? How do I smile? I just didn't want to be the girl everyone hated for no reason.
