FRIENDS.

Senior Year 4 Meghan.

Meghans POV:

My heart was damn near beating out of my chest as I finished my 10th lap. I took a little break though since nobody was looking. I stretched out in the grass on my back dozing off

"MEGHAN! GET YOUR ASS UP NOW!"

I quickly got up as I heard my Uncle Jay's deep voice emerge from the locker room

"Uncle jay. I'm tired as hell. I can't go any more" I said standing up

"You only did 10 laps girl!" He chuckled. "It's almost time for you to go to school anyways. Hit the showers" he said shaking his head

I ran up to him then hugged him tight. At first he was hesitant but eventually he hugged back. I then ran to the locker room and started my shower. I heard the door slam shut so I got a little nervous but I didn't think too much about it

Then I heard footsteps. Oh fuck no. I quickly washed the suds off my body and grabbed my towel to wrap around me. Just when I ran out, I ran into these hoes from TGHS!  The ghettoest high school in the damn city. My uncle was a track coach here and I would come do my early morning workouts here. I usually never run into these hoes tho. But anywhere they go, the mess and drama follows.

"Well well well. Look what special Ed dragged into our locker room" one of the girls spoke

"I-I-I'm not sp-special Ed" my speech problems always came at the worst times🙄! They all laughed. I quickly felt like the smallest person in the room although I was the tallest

"I bet you're not. All these years and you still can't talk right. And you're going to college? You'll never make it" she said with a straight face

"F-f-fuck you" I said loudly as they walked pass me

"I'm sorry special ed. You want to say that again?" One of them bagged up and got in my face

"I said fuck you" I said loudly in her face

They all started jumping on me and beating me up. They even took my towel before they left. I took a deep breathe before getting up to see my face. I cried for a little bit, but I quickly shook myself back before cleaning myself up.

"You took long enough" uncle jay said looking at me. I just kept walking without looking at him

"What's your problem? What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing. Let's go!" I said hopping in his truck and slamming the door

He scoffed but got in. It didn't matter what I told him. He still wouldn't understand so I just don't even bother staying anything any more. The ride to school was just long. At least it felt that way. Long and quiet. I seen my phone ringing so I quickly picked up

"Hello?" I said lowly

"Meg? What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing girl. Just tired. What's up? You never call me early in the morning"

"I know but I just left carter house. And you know Claire got stank at home by herself watching reign. She couldn't even go to school and they didn't have any food"

"SHUTUP. You're lying" my uncle jumped.

"I swear to God. I just left there. I gave them some food before I left but man this shit has to stop. I'm pissed off right now"

"Are we going to tell Carter?"

"Of course we aren't. We can't. She would really drop everything and go home then wait for her Claire to get home and raw her ass out"

"It's what Claire deserves honestly! I can't believe she did that to stank man. Actually I can cause crackheads don't give a damn"

"Language" my uncle jay said with a stern look

"Sorry. But girl I'm almost to the school. Imma meet y'all by the cafe." I said then hung up.

I finally got to school and I took a deep breathe. This thing with stank was really bothering me then with the other siblings getting home after school with no food again!

"Uncle jay can you please-"he cut me off

"Nooo! No no no! Not today Meghan. I have papers to grade after school and I have to be on time for this track meet. It's not happening"

"Please! I just want you to get the twins and take them to get a little groceries for home so their siblings can eat!? Please it's for carter! You know I won't be able to function knowing they don't have anything to eat for later! And carter won't be there!"

"Meghan. I'm telling you no"

"PLEASEEEEE! I'll pay. Here. Just get them some stuff for sandwiches, juice, chips. Something please unc. I would ask uncle Ryan or uncle lee even uncle boobie but it's easier to ask you. You see the twins every day. Think about it they're going home to no food. Please" I made my eyes tear up

"Meghan! Don't you dare do that to me! Meghan I'm serious now! Don't do..." he trailed off as he looked in my face.

"Fine. FINE. But THIS is the last time I promise you" he put his truck in drive and I quickly sucked up my "tears"

"Thank you, you're the best! I love you sooo much!" I smiled big then shut the door

The tears always get him. It always got all of my uncles.
