"No it's the fucking pope".
I ran out of my room after finally finding something to wear. As I said before, it's easier wearing a uniform.
"Do you want to get dropped off?".
I looked at my mum, sitting on a sofa and taping away at her phone.
"Yeah actually". I got myself a glass of water before slipping on my boots.
One thing that was good about my mum was that she didn't care what I wore. If my dad saw me wearing my black mini skirt and tube top with what he likes to call "devil" signs then we would get into a massive fight.
"Oh are those stockings new?".
I looked down at the fishnets, "yeah, I've changed my style".
I took mental pointers from kaden, how she dressed so confidently. I wasn't going to dress the same boring way I used to.
I grabbed my mums keys and threw them at her, she caught the and put her phone in her pocket.
"Let's go then jaybug!". I smiled at my mums enthusiasm.
It's been a while since she's taken me anywhere, let alone school.
"Oh jaybug, pop on a jacket okay? It's going to get cold later on".
I nodded and went to my room, grabbing my puffer jacket.
We got in the car and my mum immediately turned on the radio, humming to the first song she knew.
"If you manage to get some friends, bring them over would you?".
I fastened on my seatbelt and smiled weakly. "Mum, I plan to keep to myself. Everyone there hates me".
She started up the car and sighed. "Just try jaybug, I don't want you to be lonely while your here".
I looked down at my knees, the faint scar still visible under the fishnets.
I knew I was dressed out of my comfort zone, just preparing myself for the comments that come along when you're dressed like this.
"Okay , I'll try but, don't get your hopes up".
She chuckled and pulled out of the driveway. My old school wasn't far. It was close enough that I could walk there without being exhausted.
I smiled at my mum, who was occupied by singing the wrong lyrics to the song playing.
It was her little game. Who could come up with the best worst lyrics to a song.
She normally won. Since I've been gone I hadn't had anyone to do it with. So just hearing her do it brought back so many good memories.
I bit my lip out of anxiety as my mum pulled up to the front gates.
"Remember, anyone who tries anything with you jaybug, beat their ass!".
I looked at my mum. "Mom! I don't think you should be encouraging violence".
She playfully pushed my shoulder . "Go on then, have a nice day jaybug".
I opened the car door and stepped out. Giving my mum a wave as I closed the door behind me.
My anxiety was out of control as I walked to the front doors. No stares yet.
I looked at the students at their lockers, it was easier having the lockers in a class. Instead of moving around constantly.
I walked into the front office, needing my class roster and locker number.
I looked at the ladies behind the desk.
"Hey Sandra. I'm here for my class roster and locker information".
Sandra looked up from her computer, taking a moment to realise who I was.
"Oh lord, Jayden is that you?".
I grinned. "Yeah I'll be here for a month or 2 depending on how I feel".
"It's lovely that your back dear, here's your roster and locker number".
I grabbed the sheet of paper and walked out. I took a look at the locker number, rolling my eyes at the so call coincidence.
It was my old locker, next to Mara.
I shoved to paper in my pocket and walked over to my locker, which was on the first floor.
I ignored the anger as I laid my eyes on Mara. She didn't change one bit.
Her long brown hair, sitting right above her hips. She loved her hair, not as much as she liked to fuck all the supply teachers.
I walked over to my locker and punched in the code.
"Excuse me? Who are yo-".
I turned to looked at her, giving her the bitchiest smile possible.
"Hey mara ,fucked anymore teachers since I've been gone?".
There wasn't any anger on her face, just guilt. "Jay is that you?".
"No it's the fucking pope".
I rolled my eyes as I threw my bag and jacket into my locker, pulling out the necessary books.
"How come your back?".
I slammed my locker shut. "I don't see how it's any of your fucking business?".
She pressed her lips together and pulled out her phone, quickly sending a message to someone.
"Look, me and Alyssa are really sorry".
I laughed. "Take your apology and shove it up your ass Mara, I will never forget what you guys did to me".
I walked away before she could say anything else. There was no way I was going back to being friends with those two faced girls.
I looked at my roster, "okay English, should be around here".
I looked around for a door saying 'English'. It should be on the first floor, unless they moved it.
I pushed open the class door as soon as I found it. I looked around at the students already in there seats.
"Come on, your just on time. Take a seat".
I took a seat at the back. Just so I could observe everyone.
I received a couple of looks from some of the boys in the back.
"Hey? Are you new?".
I looked over at the boy, I knew who he was. Known for blowing up things in the carpark.
"No Justin, I just came back".
He looked at me, clearly puzzled. "Wait a minute, your Jayden!".
I rolled my eyes and opened my text book. Lucky I didn't throw them out , it seemed hoarding things turned out to be useful.
"Wait ? Really? I had no idea..".
I got up and sat next to me. I shot him a distasteful look. "Get lost".
He opened up his text book. "Yeah, no. See the think is Jayden, you look hot now".
I rolled my eyes. "I have a boyfriend so fuck off".
"Yeah I've seen the picture you took, everyone saw it".
I knew lots of people saw it. Just makes sense from the amount of comments there was.
"I'm aware, now go back to your seat".
"Only if you go to prom with me".
I scoffed. "Take a hit Justin , so fuck off".
He just tapped his pen against the desk, irritating me even more. I had enough, I snatched the pen away from him.
"Justin, leave me alone!".
Everyone turned to me and Justin, the teacher just placed her marker down.
"Miss....?".
"It's Jayden miss, Jayden Clyde".
The teacher eyes flickers in interest. "Oh your back miss Clyde, we'll what's going on in the back".
Before Justin could speak, I covers his mouth with my hand. "I'm being harassed, Justin here decided he won't let me be".
I pulled my hand away in disgust as he licked it. "Your actually disgusting".
"Miss I was just asking her to prom!".
The teacher rolled her eyes . "No means no Justin, do you want to attend another harassment seminar?".
He rolled his eyes and moved back to his seat. "Good , now let's get on with the lesson".
I noticed Justin wouldn't stop staring at me, so I flipped him off.
Hopefully the rest of the class will be harassment free.
--
I put my books back in my locker, hoping Mara wouldn't talk to me again.
"Jay?".
I shot her a look. "What the hell do you want from me?! Was you guys covering me in soap not enough?!".
She bit her lip and closed her locker. "I'm sorry about that...".
I pulled out my books for my next class. "I really don't care, so stop".
"Please, we all feel bad".
I slammed the locker door so hard, that it felt as if it could of snapped off.
"I don't care Mara, you guys made your beds. So go fucking sleep on them".
I walked away with my history books. I knew the class was on the second floor. I walked up the stairs, dodging teenagers running down.
I pushed open the classroom door and made a beeline for the back row, which was thankfully empty.
I took a seat and laid my head on the desk. I listened the the students run into the class and take their seats.
It was loud for no reason.
"Is that a new student?".
"I think so".
I lifted up my head, just to see two girls sitting next to me.
"What do you want?".
One of the girls touched my arm, grinning as if she won the lottery.
Kelly and savanna.
"So are you new?".
I rolled my eyes, what was with the fascination of a new student.
"No, I just left for 2 months".
"Oh so your back? I'm savanna !".
"I know who you both are".
Kelly looked at savanna, both sending each other weird looks.
"Who are you?".
I looked at Kelly and slapped away at savanna's hand.
"Jayden Clyde".
Both of the girls looked at each other with wide eyes. Kelly write something down on her book and shoved it to savanna, which she just nodded to.
"Now you know who I am, can you leave me alone?".
"We were wondering if you had a boyfriend?".
I looked at them, as if they were crazy. "Are you referring to the picture I posted?".
This time Kelly spoke. "Yes! If he's not your boyfriend then can you introduce us to him?!".
I scoffed. "Your not his type, so no".
"Come on , please!".
I opened up my book. "Kelly, stop. Your looking way to desperate".
Kelly rolled her eyes and shot me a glare. Savanna just kept smiling, it was creepy.
"What's his name?".
It wasn't going to kill him if I told them his name. They'd probably just stalk him.
"Cameron drew, his account is private. He doesn't add people he doesn't know".
"Oh I just wanted a name to match the face".
I ignored Kelly trying to search his account up. "Hey I think I found his sister!".
I gave Kelly a look. "Stop stalking them kel!".
I smiled. At least one of them had common sense. I turned my attention to the teacher calling names.
"Savanna amir?".
"Here!".
"Oh this is new! Jayden Clyde?".
"Here". It caused a few students to turn around and look at me, some glaring and others smiling.
"Welcome back Jayden! Are you finishing your studies here?".
"No , just here while I sort things out".
The teacher nodded as she continued to call out names. I wasn't paying attention.
The teacher frowned as she looked at the students, putting the class list on the desk.
"Open up to chapter 34 guys!".
I turned to the chapter. I zoned out the teacher explaining some stuff that happened before I was born.
The history books weren't even accurate, I knew that for a fact.
Why bother teaching students pure bullshit?
"Clay your late! Take a seat in the back now!".
I snapped out of my thoughts. Eyes meeting with the boy who ruined everything for me.
The one who hurt me.
The one who made me love a lie.
Clay kenndle
We walked to the back and I turned my attention to my book.
It looked like he didn't notice me. That I was thankful for.
"Clay!".
Clay turned his attention to Kelly, who had a smug look on her face.
"Yeah ? What is it Kelly?".
She pointed to me. The most childish thing I've witnessed so far.
"Jayden is back".
I wanted to slap her hand away. I swear she loved doing this.
Clay looked at me, causing me to look at him. I kept my face emotionless.
"Hey jay".
