TWELVE

I was in bed, and it was almost no time at all before I could hear Kaleb begin to yell. I cringed, pulling my covers up to my chin. I wanted to hide away from the world. This was exactly what I hadn't wanted to happen.

I didn’t want to come between Trevor and Kaleb.

"She's a fucking lying bitch, Trevor!” Kaleb shouted, making me flinch at his words. “Why in the hell would I ruin our friendship for some attention-seeking whore like Tracey?!" Kaleb hollered.

I physically winced. Nice to know what he really thought of me.

I didn't hear what Trevor said, but I heard something fall over right after Kaleb spoke, and I only assumed that Trevor had knocked something over in his anger. I sighed and got out of my bed.

I needed to stop this. It was my fault these two were fighting anyway. If I had just kept my mouth shut instead of telling Trevor what had happened, had never called him, they wouldn't be arguing.

Turns out that I didn't need to break up their argument, though. Kaleb's mom came running up the stairs at the sound of their fight. "Boys!" She hollered. "Stop it this instant!"

"I want Tracey out, mom!” Kaleb yelled at Miss Brinson as I entered the hallway. “She's a fucking lying cunt! I swear to God, she fucks up everything in her path! She needs to fucking go!"

I stumbled back as if I had been hit. My hip hit the table in the hallway with enough force to knock it over. Everyone's eyes swung over to me as my bottom lip trembled and tears filled my eyes.

Lacie looked smug as hell that Kaleb was finally turning his back on me. Kaleb looked pissed and hurt that this shit was happening, and Trevor looked ready to murder someone – most definitely Kaleb – and poor Kaleb's mom just looked tired of all of the fighting.

Tears welled up in my eyes. I wasn't wanted anywhere. Not with my parents. Not in this world. Not here.

I turned around and ran for the stairs. I had to get out of there. I felt like I couldn't breathe. It was all too much for me. I wanted to escape it all, and I would be damned if someone would stop me this time. Fuck my promises to Trevor. Fuck it all.

I was done – so done with this fucked up world that I was placed in.

"Tracey, stop!" I heard Trevor yell behind me.

It was too late though. I was already running out the front door and down the street. I couldn't take it anymore.

I felt arms wrap around my waist as my feet met the asphalt and lift me off the ground from behind. I immediately smelt Trevor's smoky scent, and I just slumped in defeat as my shoulders shook with my sobs.

What was there left to fight for anyway?

Trevor turned me around and wiped the tears off my face almost frantically, his eyes pained as he took in how broken I was.
