Paradise (Harry Styles Fanfic)

Chapter 2

Looking in the mirror, I carefully revised the scar on my cheek and decided to apply a bit of makeup to make it less noticeable. After I finished applying, I took another glance in the mirror, slowly remembering the dark story behind the scar.

*FLASHBACK*

"I guess I'll be on my way!" I said, clutching onto my textbooks. I smiled at my best friend, Julia.

"Do you want my mom to drive you home?" Julia asked, sliding the folder into her book bag. We had just finished our homework, and it was almost midnight.

Shaking my head, I said, "No, I'll be fine, I only live a couple of blocks away!" I made my way out, waving at Julia.

"Bye!" She shouted, shutting the door as I made my way to the sidewalk.

The night sky had taken over; the stars glistened, and the moon shined. Humming to myself, I walked down the sidewalk. My legs started to cramp, so I decided to take the short cut. Stepping on the grass, I walked down the path into the woods, the only barrier that separated me from my house. Little did I know that decision would change entire my life…

*END FLASHBACK*

I shut my eyes tightly and shook my head, attempting to forget these horrible memories. Opening my eyes, I stole another glance of my reflection. Disgusted, I turned and grabbed my rugged bag from the bathroom floor, releasing a blatant groan.

Time for hell.

I dreadfully made my way down the stairs into the kitchen. A sticky note with my mother's beautiful handwriting was gently placed on the counter.

'I was called to work at 4 am! Pancakes in the fridge! Be back by 7 pm. Love you xoxo -Mom"

Swinging the metal door of the fridge, I carefully grabbed the plate of pancakes and put them in the microwave. I slowly ate the delicious food until I glanced at the clock: 7:47.

"Shit," I muttered to myself realizing I only had 5 minutes to get to school.

I shoved down the rest of the pancakes, and I ran to my car. The engine roared to life as I shoved the key into the ignition. Putting the car in reverse, I quickly backed out of my driveway and sped out into the road.

The first bell rung indicating school just began, as I parked my Mazda. Promptly shutting the door, I ran to the science building which fortunately was right by the parking lot.

I ran down the hallway, and finally made it to the front door of my classroom just in time as the second bell rang. Taking a seat in the middle row of desks, everyone gazed at me with blank expressions.

“Good morning class, please take out your notebooks,” demanded Ms. Hale. Searching through my bag, I took out my red notebook that had One Direction and Ed Sheeran written on the front cover.

My ears perked up as I heard “Look at her notebook... gay.”

Turning around, Patricia and Anastasia were looking straight at me with smirks plastered on their faces.

“What did you say?” I snapped, looking at each of them. My eyebrows narrowed. They were the average whores that everyone goes to school with.

 “Shut the fuck up, and turn around Baby Killer,” Anastasia rolled her eyes, and Patricia giggled, rising up her hand for a high five.

Whirling back around to face the board, my stomach churned from that nickname.

-Flashback-

The tears kept pouring out of my eyes, as I stared in horror at the amount of blood pouring out of my body onto my bed. Dashing into the bathroom, I took off my clothes and out came the red liquid running down my thighs onto the floorboards.

“I’m sorry” I choked out looking down as the blood spread across the floor.

-End-

“Earth to Ms. Adams” The voice of my teacher instantly broke my cloud of thought. “Huh” Was all I managed to say. The classroom broke out into laughter. My hands rubbed my eyes, trying to keep from crying.

“What is the fifth compound of”- the bell interrupted Ms. Hale. Jumping up from the desk, I collected my notebook and made my way out the door before she could stop me.

Dropping my bag onto the grass, I sat down on the football field, the sun beaming down on me. It was time for lunch, and as usual I always ate on the field, since I really had no one to talk to.

From the corner of my eye, I could see Julia walking along side her boyfriend, Stephan.

Ripping out blades of grass as I intently looked at the couple, Julia peered over her shoulder. She caught me looking, and turned away.
