I felt like crap today. I had a banging headache and I had double literature today...Hamlet and I don't get on. I dragged myself out of bed and decided that I wouldn't make much of an effort, I wandered into my wardrobe and pulled out a pair of leggings and a blue SuperDry hoodie and white converse. I walked into the bathroom and washed my face, brushed my teeth and took my plait out and tidied it up, I really couldn't be bothered with makeup so I decided to skip. I grabbed my phone as saw I had an unread message from Nathan. Opening it, it read:

Hope your okay Gretch. Picking you up tomorrow at 8.

Smiling at my phone a little I shoved my phone in my pocket and grabbed my bag and trudged down the stairs.

"You look tired," Bellamy commented pouring coffee into my mug.

"Thanks," I smiled.

"Well we did watch frozen three times...." Bellamy laughed.

"That was your fault." I smiled dumping my bag and taking my coffee from him.

"Don't say that you didn't enjoy it," he smiled.

"Shut up," I smiled sitting at the breakfast bar. "Nathan's giving me a lift..."

"Have I been replaced?" Bellamy half smiled.

"No! Don't ever say that...He text me last night but I've only seen it this morning..."

"Fair enough." Bellamy nodded taking a sip of his coffee, "Can I dibs giving you a lift tomorrow?"

"Sure," I laughed drinking the rest of my coffee then grabbing some mints and popping one in my mouth.

"He's here." Bellamy nodded to the door. I smiled briefly and grabbed my bag and headed for the door.

"Please don't stare at me till the cars out of sight....." I sighed.

"Fineeee," Bellamy laughed as he strolled over to me and kissed me on top of my head.

"See ya later squirt,"

"Don't call me that!" I called as I walked towards Nathan's range rover.

"You look tired."

"I think I just had déjà vu." I rolled my eyes as Nathan chuckled and held the door open for me. I climbed in and put my bag on the floor. Nathan climbed in and started the engine.

"How did your brother react yesterday?" Nathan asked as he pulled away from my house.

"Um okayish...."

"ish?"

"I had issues."

"Issues?"

"Yes fucking issues." I rolled my eyes looking out the window on my side looking away from Nathan.

"Alright." Nathan said. There was an awkward silence for about five minutes.

"Sorry." I whispered. "Last night was emotional and I'm just really tired."

"I understand," Nathan nodded "Sorry for asking questions, will tea and a cookie help?" He asked gesturing to the paper bag and cup in the holder. I smirked a little.

"Maybe...." I took the bag and started munching on the cookie.

Pulling up at school luckily Max was no where to be seen, I deffiently did not want a replay of yesterdays events.

"So I was thinking we could do a session after school today?" Nathan asked "Of course if your not up for it I understand,"

"No its fine I'm sure I'll manage," I smiled walking through the office.

"What do you have last?" He asked.

"Fuck knows," I said.

"Same." He shrugged smiling.

***

"I'm not apologising for anything!" I argued back with Mrs Lewis the social studies tutor.

"I would just appreciate it if you apologised so we can all move on with the class." Mrs Lewis tried to persuade me. There was no way I was saying sorry to Bella Sunderland. I'm not five so I shouldn't have to apologise for telling her to fuck off and sort her life out. Glancing at her quickly she had a smug face.

"I said fuck off! Do-you-not-understand-me!" I shouted at Bella.

"Honestly Gretchen, your so pathetic it probably because you don't see your parents everyday, that's probably why your so fucked up." She hummed and faced the front of the class. I stood up grabbed my bag and stormed to the front of her desk.

"At least I'm not a skanky little whore that offers out her vagina like a drive-thru restaurant!" With that I grabbed her bag and threw it out the open window. I have to admit that was a little childish but it did feel good.

"Fuck the lot of you!" I shouted slamming the door behind me and storming to the girls bathroom. Luckily it was empty so I pulled out my phone and dialed my brothers number.

"Gretch?" He answered on the second ring.

"Will I get expelled for throwing someone's bag out the window?" I asked there was a pause then a deep sigh.

"What happened?"

"Bella happened. Fucking crack whore....."

"Alright alright." Bellamy tried to calm me down. "I'll come get you."

"No no its fine I'm training after school today." I assured him.

"Your not seriously fixed on being taught how to punch are you?"

"Yeahhhhhh..."

"Fine just be back before 6 and no funny business okay?"

"Sure thing Mr Funny." I said hearing him chuckle a little down the phone.

"And try not to throw any more bags out windows, I'll talk to you later about that." Bellamy said.

"Kk," I agreed sniggering a little.

"Don't kk me," he laughed.

"Kk byeeee," I called down the phone and I hung up once I heard laughing. Feeling a little better I came out the bathroom and decided to go to the older years homeroom and check Nathan schedule. I walked down some corridoors and up to the first floor, finding the right room I opened the door without knocking, luckily no one was in so I let myself in and headed over to the schedule board and checked Nathan's last lesson.

"Public services..." I muttered to myself.

"You looking at my schedule?"

"Great." I mumbled "Haven't you learnt your lesson from yesterday Max?"

"Your punch was pathetic." He snorted.

"Yeah well Nathan's wasn't," I turned round and gave him a smug look.

"What's going on between you two?"

"Nothing but even if there was it would be none of your fucking business, Chandle." I rolled my eyes at him.

"Even when your angry your sexy..." Max smirked as he walked towards me with his arms open. I dodged him.

"Eat a dick!" I rolled my eyes and slammed the door behind me. I pushed Max out my mind and headed over to Public Services and hung round their class until the bell went. Once the bell signaled files of students poured out the classroom and I lost sight of the right class, then I felt a poke in my back.

"Hey what the fu- oh its you," I said frowning at Nathan.

"Your were hanging around outside my classroom?" He asked.

"Yeah I walked out of social studies after lobbing Bella's bag out the window." I laughed.

"Nice," He smiled, he grabbed my hand and dragged me through the crowds until we reached his car. Nathan helped me in and he climbed in the other side then started the car. We chatted until we pulled up outside Nathan's house twenty minutes later.

"I still can't believe how big your house is....." I stared in awe.

"It isnt that big," Nathan said putting the handbrake on.

"That's like the biggest understatement of the century." I stared at him whilst he chuckled. He got out the car and opened my side for me and we walked to the house together. He opened the doors up and allowed me to step through first.

"Brothers in?"

"Of course they are they're lazy shits remember?" Nathan rolled his eyes while he put his keys in the bowl.

"Gretchen!!" Kendall shouted and ran towards me lifting me up and spinning me round.

"Hi Kendall," I laughed.

"I hear you punched a dude yesrerday," He smiled.

"Yeah, he didn't get the picture though..." I smiled at Nathan's brother.

"What?" Nathan spoke from behind me.

"Oh I went in your homeroom and I didn't know Chandle was there," I explained as I watched Nathan clench his jaw.

"Gretch," Mason smiled walking down the stairs and gave me a tight hug.

"Heya Mason," I smiled at him, I had to admit I had missed these boys banter.

"Boys? Is Nathan home?" A female voice called to the kitchen. I turned round to give Nathan a look.

"Yeah Mum!" Mason called back.

"Shit....." Nathan muttered. What! Nathan's Mum was home? I couldn't face his mother I wouldn't know what to say!

"Hey Mum you know we told you about Gretch?" Kendall called.

"Yes honney?"

"She's here!" He shouted throughout the house. The was quietness then a woman with golden blonde hair wearing a white frilly blouse, with a black blazer and a black pencil skirt stepped into the hallway and walked towards me. She looked like a Goddess.

"Oh my dear I've heard so much about you! Nice to meet you Gretchen I'm Penelope or just call me Penny," she smiled warmly before hugging me. She deffiently gave them cosy motherly hugs that radiatored throughout my body and her smile was infectious.

"Nice to meet you Penny," I smiled at her pulling away.

"Oh boys let the poor girl breathe! Come through Gretchen, come meet my husband." She smiled and led me through the kitchen with the boys closley following behind me.

"Matthew, come meet Gretchen!" Penny sung, she was so full of energy. A man looked up from his newspaper and stood up revealing the fact he was wearing a black suit, white shirt and red tie.

"Gretchen, what a pleasure to meet you after all this time," He outstretched a hand and I shook it breifly.

"Nice to meet you Mr Blake." I smiled at the powerful man in front of me and suddenly I felt wayyyyy underdressed.

"Please call me Matthew," He chuckled.

"Okay, thanks for that heartwarming welcome but we're going into the gym upstairs," Nathan said taking my hand and tried to tug me away but his Mum slapped his hands away.

"Sorry for my son's rudeness," Penny tutted "Would you like to have dinner with us tonight?"

"Um that would be wonderful thank you, as long as it's not an inconvinience." I smiled.

"Of course not honney," Penny smiled. Okay so I did not see this coming....I was having dinner with the Blake family.
