I had never felt so free.


For the first time in years, I did not feel afraid when walking past the school doors. No bully could harm me now.

All I could think was:
"Connor, Connor, Connor..."


Nothing could have stopped me.


I ignored the sharp sting in my stomach I felt when I could not immediately find Connor and walked outside, enjoying the way the morning sun warmed my face.


By the tree, I saw what I had been wanting to forget since yesterday.


Connor, kissing Daria.


Everything came crashing down on me.


How could he do this to me? I thought he loved me.


No!


I was probably projecting. This was a mistake. But I was already walking towards him. 


When I arrived at the branch where they were they were continuing to make out , I silently stared, too shocked to say anything.


"Oh, hey, Jude"


Connor greeted me with an embarrassed grin.


"Hi", I responded with a shaky voice. Before Connor could say anything else, anything that could hurt me more, I responded hastily,


"Hi. I have to go...finish my homework, bye!"



"J"-but I was already long-gone. In an ever-steady fast walk I almost stumbled to the classroom, when Lena stopped me.


The last thing I needed right now was my mother checking up on me. 


"Jude! Connor's dad's out of town. So he's staying with us this weekend"


I was in agony. Connor coming to our place after what he did was the worst possible outcome. But I was afraid of saying no to anyone, especially an adult.


"Okay"


"What's the matter? I thought you would be thrilled!"


I had never felt so afraid.
