~Ivy's POV~

I woke up the next day to Ally shaking me.

"Sweetie. Its time for school." she tells me sweetly.

I nod and sit up, stretching my arms.

I gently shake Skylar.

She wakes up right away.

She shot up from my bed.

"Wow there. Calm down." I tell her, putting My hand on her shoulder.

"I need to get home and shower and change."

"Why?" I ask.

"My first day at a new school." she mumbles out.

"Oh well, you can use my shower and borrow some of my clothes." I tell her.

"No I can't do that." She tells me.

"And why the hell not?" I ask raising my eyebrow.

"I don't even know. I just can't."

"Yes you can. And you are." I tell her pulling her towards my walk in closet.

I pushed her in telling her to pick out whatever She wanted to wear.

She honestly looked like a little kid in a candy shop.

I smiled at The thought and grabbed my own set of clothes and making my way towards my mom's shower.

I quickly and did my morning routine before hopping out and slipping on my clothes.

I had black leggings, a cream Paris shirt, a red flannel, and a grey beanie.

I fixed my makeup and slid multiple bracelets up my arms before running back to my room.

"Find anything?" I asked Skylar through the door.

"Yeah. You can Come in you know."

I walked in and she was wearing a white button up blouse, light ripped skinny jeans, and her black converse.

"Love the look." I smile at her.

"I'm really nervous." skylar tells me.

"Why are you So nervous?" I ask curiously.

"First day at a new high school. And it's even worse when you're a senior." she told me.

"What school? I can drop you off. Mom let's me use her car."

"Kanebridge high."

"No way! That's where I go! And I'm a senior!" I tell her.

"Oh thank God."

"Come on let's go. I'll show yo I around." I take her hand and run towards the banister.

I hopped on and slid all the way to the bottom.

We never stopped laughing.

"I need to do that more often." I giggle.

"BYE MOMMY. AND OTHERS. WERE OFF TO HELL." I yell through the house.

"SHUT THE HELL UP. SOME OF US DONT NEED TO BE UP AT THE CRACK OF DAWN." Dinah yells from her room.

"Damn someone's on her period." I mutter to Skylar as we open the door to the garage.

"So which one would you like to arrive in?" I ask.

She looks so cute the way her mouth is partly open.

Wait what?

No.

I don't like her.

Do i?

"The blue one!" she squeals.

"Corvet it is." I tell her smiling.

I grab the keys and unlock it, opening the garage door.

"Lets get this over with." I tell myself

The ride to school consists of us joking around and singing along to random songs on the radio.

"Were here." I say.

"I can see that." She tells me.

I give her a small smile as We pull into a spot.

Everyone's eyes on us.

"It'll be okay." I whisper park the car and take my keys out.

I grab my bag and get out.

I flip my hair and spot our little group.

Of course Gabby is all over her boyfriend Niall.

I gagged a little and grabbed Skylars hand.

All eyes were on us as we made our way to the tree where we usually meet.

Louis and Harry were kissing and being all lovey dovey.

Alex and Mollie were all talking while Emily was copying Harry's homework.

"I see you didn't do your homework. Again." I said laughing.

"I had things to do woman!" she jokingly shouted.

"Okay okay!" I laughed.

"So who's this?" Alex asked.

"This is Skylar." I said smiling.

She swung our entwined fingers back and forth.

"Hey." Skylar said shyly.

"This is Alex, Gabby, Niall, Harry, Emily, Mollie, Louis, and Liam." I told her pointing to each of them.

"Come on guys we have to get to class." I said.

We walked Skylar to the main office and got her schedule.

"You have all of your classes with me and Ivy!" Alex yells, flaling her arms about.

We laughed and went through the day without a run in with Brittany.

I was putting my books in my locker and grabbing my purse and keys when Brittany and her bitches struck.

"I saw your girlfriend yesterday. She was at dinner with My step brother, Austin."

I slammed my locker and turned to her.

"Shut up Brittany. I don't want to hear it."

I went to walk away when she grabbed the collar of my shirt, pulling me back.

"Get off of me!" I grab her hand and pull it off.

"Don't you walk away from me!" Brittany yells in my face.

She raises her hand and brings it to my cheek letting out a loud slap.

Gabby, Skylar, and Alex ran up behind me.

I could feel my cheek starting to bruise already.

Skylar looked so pissed.

Alex and Gabby grabbed onto Skylar, because she looked ready to pounce.

I lunged at Brittany.

"I'm so done with You! You've done nothing but hurt me since the sixth grade! That's seven years!" I said getting up in her face.

"Seven. Fucking. Years!" I screamed after each punch.

She managed to get a few good hits in before she stopped.

She was bleeding pretty badly, but it felt nice not being the one getting hit.

I enjoyed it.

That was until someone's arms latched around my body pulling me away from her bleeding body.

"No no no no no. Let go." I sobbed.

I looked up and saw Holly.

I wrapped my arms around her neck as she hurried me away.

We went into the bathroom and she Sat me on the sink counter, pulling out her phone.

"Hey babe. Can you come by the school for a bit?" She asked through the phone.

I take it she's talking to Dinah.

I take this as the chance to crawl into the last stall.

The stalls in this bathroom go from the floor all the way to the ceiling so no one can get in unless they have a key.

Holly hung up and sighed.

I locked the door.

I guess Holly noticed and started knocking on The door.

"Iv. Please. Open up love." she begged.

I thanked the Lord that I still had the blade I shoved in my phone case from when I went home with Ross.

I pulled it out and flipped it around on the Palm of my hand, thinking if it was worth it.

I decided it was. I don't care anymore.

I unbuttoned my pants and pulled them down to expose my thigh.

I drug the blade across my thigh, pushing it in deeper than usual.

The blood poured out in a pool of blood.

I felt myself becoming dizzy.

"Ivy. Open up now!" Skylar?

"Ivy open the door." Gabby?

I heard other voices who I identified as Alex, Mollie, and Emily.

I finally stopped the bleeding and cleaned up.

I pulled a large bandaid out of my purse and put it on the cut.

The floor was now spotless. No blood in sight.

I flushed the evidence and put the blade back into my case.

"What's wrong?" Dinah asked, walking into the bathroom.

"I-it's Ivy. She's in the stall. She won't open up." Holly's voice cracked as she told her.

"Which stall?"

"The last stall."

There was a light knock on the door followed by a soft voice.

"Ivy, babygirl, I need you to open up for me. Please? Lets get you home." Dinah says.

I sigh before sliding back up the wall.

I unlock the door and open it revealing multiple worried faces.

I gave a slight wave And looked at my boots.

"Ivy what happened out there." Alex asked.

"I've had it with her." I told her truthfully.

"I can't anymore. She's been doing that for seven years. She brought up Bea too. I just can't anymore." I tell them breaking down again.

I fall into Dinah and sob into her shoulder.

"Lets get going babygirl." she whispers to me.

"Holly. Would you mind taking her car home? I don't want her driving and skylar doesn't know how to get there yet." Dinah asks.

"Yeah I got it. My sister dropped me off today anyways." Holly says kissing Dinah before taking my keys.

Dinah turns to the rest of our group minus the four boys.

"Thank you all for caring so much. Her mom would be thankful." Dinah tells the small group.

I wrap my legs around Dinah's waist and my arms around her neck, leaning my head on her shoulder.

"I love you Dinah Jane." I tell her.

Skylar and Holly follow the girls out of the bathroom soon followed by me And Dinah.

Dinah's the same age as me yet here She is, being all motherly.

The four of us went out to the cars.

Dianh got in the black SUV with me and skylar while Holly got in the corvet.

The ride home was silent until Dinah spoke.

"You do know were going to have to tell your mom right?" she askef, looking over at me then back onto the road.

"Yeah DJ I'm aware." I said keeping my eyes fixed on my hands.

We pulled into the driveway and I tensed up.

I'm covered in blood and I'm going to go inside.

Moms going to freak.

Ross will too!

Everyone will start asking questions.

"Carry me?" I asked no one in particular.

Skylar got out and scooped me up, bridal style.

I rested my head on her chest and left my feet to dangle.

"Sky I'm scared." I told her, playing with a strand of her hair.

"It'll be okay. I'll be with you the whole time. I promise." she told me.

I nod and cuddle further into her body as Holly pulls up and gets out.

"All three of us got ya boo." Holly said giggling a little bit.

I smile a tad more and Dinah opens the door.

We make our way to the living room and sit on the couch across from Mom, Ally, and Normani.

They were all playing on there phones until Normani looked up.

"Oh my God what happened to you?" she shouted

"I don't want to talk about it." I whispered looking at the wall behind them.

"Um I saw the whole thing. Brittany."

That's all she had to say to send mom over the edge.

"She has touched you for the last time babygirl." Mom says standing up.

"I don't think we have to worry about her for a while." Skylar looks down at me. "She got her good."

"Let's get you cleaned up." she whispers, getting up and carrying me to the bathroom.

I sit on the sink while she starts cleaning me up.

"I'm pretty sure you broke your nose.

Nice job." she says smirking.

She dabs My cheek again and I flinch.

"Sorry. Its almost done." she kisses my knuckle.

I blush and waited for her to be done.

"Okay done. What do you want to do Now?"

"Lets go play a video game or something on my tv."

We giggled and ran to my room putting Call of Duty into my Xbox one.

"GOD DANG FLABBIT STOP SHOOTING ME!" she shouts.

I laugh and hide.

"Never!"

The whole night went by like that.

With all the girls joining us at one point.

I hope we can have more family time like this soon.
