A Warrior Of Youth

Chapter Ten: Caught out

Lissas POV

I had decided to take Jake's advice and not go to school for the rest of the week. I thought I'd let him settle things without me there. I think I would make it worse for him.
At least I could count on Jake as a friend. He seemed like he genuinely cared for me.
Today was Saturday and Jake had planned for us to hang out at the mall. Which I was fine with, I had been hiding in my room for the last couple of days. The bruise on my face was fading into a brown colour and would be easier to cover with make-up.
Jake texted me earlier and said he would pick me up at 11. I was standing in front of my closet trying to decide what to wear.
I pulled out ripped black skinny jeans, black camisole that clung to my figure and a red and black plaid shirt. I left the shirt undone and rolled the sleeves up to my elbows. I slipped on my ballet flats and went into the bathroom to do my make-up.
I managed to blend the bruise in and make it unnoticeable, as well as my fringe covering the top bit of it.
When I was done I glanced at my phone just as it buzzed with a message from Jake saying he was outside.
I grabbed my bag and rushed downstairs.
"Where are you going missy?" My mum said as I as staggered to a halt at the sound of her voice.
"Out. I've been in this house forever!" I whined.
"Who with?"
"Jake. We're just going to the mall."
"Okay. Well I hope you plan on having lunch. You haven't eaten much in the last few days" she commented.
"Sure" I lied. Since the other day food doesn't sit well with me. Now every time I have a meal I have to throw it up.
"Okay, well have fun" she called in a worried tone.
I rushed out the door and walked out to Jake's car.
"Hey."
"Hey, how are you feeling?" He asked.
"Uhhh, better than before."
"Your bruise is healing, can barely see it."
"Its just make-up. So what are we doing today?" I asked changing the topic.
"Umm, we can just hang out. Grab a bite, maybe go see a movie."
"Sounds good. Anywhere but that house" I said giving him a smile.
He smiled back and starting the car and pulling away from my house.
"So, hows school been?" I asked when we got out of the car and walked across the parking lot.
"It's okay. I broke up with Ella. She didn't take it so great. Neither did my friends" he said screwing up his face.
"What do you mean your friends didn't take it well?"
"Well, basically, their not my friends anymore."
"Don't tell me this is all because of me! Jake, seriously, I can't be responsible for you losing your friends!" I said becoming panicked.
"Liss! It's okay, really. I couldn't handle the things they were saying about you. I've never heard them be so cruel. I can't associate myself with them anymore. We never use to be these people. We would pull pranks and have a laugh, but now it's not jokes anymore" he said being serious.
"Jake... I-I don't know what to say..." I studded.
"You don't have to" he said wrapping an arm over my shoulders and hugging me to his side.
I stopped him just inside the mall and gave him a proper hug. "I'm sorry I fucked up everything for you. I wish I never moved here" I said into his chest.
"Don't say that. If you never moved here, I wouldn't have met you" he said trying to soothe me. I felt him kiss the top of my head.
I swallowed hard and pulled away from him. "I still feel bad. I mean, I assumed they would talk shit about me, but what if they start bullying you?"
"They probably will, it will be a lot names and shit like that. I hope it doesn't get violent again, what happened to you was definitely a low for our group. They know I can take them if something happens to any one of us, I'll punch them out."
"What are they saying about me?" I blurted.
"Uhhh, you don't want to know. You'll find out soon enough."
"Jake... What do they know?" I said almost afraid to ask.
"I really don't wanna tell you. It's bad. Really bad. What you told me has been so twisted. They are saying all sorts of things and I'm sorry for being apart of the reason they know" he said with guilt leaking from his tone.
"Jake, its okay. They didn't know before and they still hated me. I'll deal with when the time comes" I said trying to comfort him.
He hugged me again, wrapping his arms tightly around my shoulders.
"Come on, lets walk around. I'm sorry, I didn't want to depress you with all this."
I smiled and shook my head. "Yeah, lets forget it."
We walked around the mall, not really looking at anything, just talking. We came across the a music store.
Jake walked straight up to the guitars and grabbed a shiny black one off the rack.
"Oh my God. I didn't realise this was getting released here" he said staring at it in awe.
I giggled at his excitement until I saw the baby grand piano sitting in the corner. Jake saw me looking over at it.
"Go play something" he urged.
I ran my fingers over the keys and sat down on the stool. The song My Immortal came to mind and my fingers did the talking.
I sang the words quietly to myself, but loud enough for Jake to hear.
"I'm so tired of being here, suppressed by all of my childish fears,
and if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave,
cause your presence still lingers here, and it won't leave me alone,
these wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real,
there's just too much that time cannot erase" I sang, but had to stop.
"Why'd you stop?" Jake asked.
"I'll cry otherwise. Can we go?"
"Sure" he said giving me a sympathetic expression.
We headed towards the food court and Jake bought us pizza. I looked at it nervously as Jake grabbed a slice.
"Eat Liss. Otherwise you're going to be starving through the movie."
I grabbed a slice and raised it to my mouth. I could feel it travelling down my throat and into my stomach.
I finished one slice by the time Jake had polished off three.
"Liss, you've barely eaten. there's no way you're full."
"But I am."
"Okay, well we better head over to the cinema if we wanna get good seats" he said getting up from his seat.
We walked over to the cinema in silence, but our arms touched as we walked. I was having a hard time enjoying our close proximity cause my stomach churning.
"I'm just gonna go to the bathroom before we go in" I said noticing the toilets just outside the cinema.
"Okay, I'll wait here."
I gave him a quick smile and left him.
Once securely behind the door of a bathroom stall, I stuck my fingers down my throat and regurgitated my food. The familiar burn entered my throat as I coughed up acid.
"Hey, are you okay in there?" Someone asked.
"Uhhh, yeah, I'm fine" I said flushing the toilet.
When I exited the stall I saw who was so concerned.

I hate endings too, but all stories must end somewhere. I know it was sad and all that shiz :P but I just thought not all stories have a happy ending. And thank you so much! I'm glad you still like it and dont hate me for killing Lissa. That was hard. I had originally thought for her to commit suicide, but then thought, what if she gets what she wants and goes home, but something as simple and common as a car crash seemed to kind of fit better with the whole being insignificant issue.

I know guys. You probably hate for doing that, but yeah.. if you read above in the other reply I explain my reasons. It just fit. I really wanted to kind of show that the Gandhi quote may be true in a way, but everything you do creates a ripple effect.

@TheOutlawAndAndy!! @bvbchika
Awwwww thank you! I was getting really sad when I wrote the part where Jake finds out.. They had just declared their love for each other again and the most horrific accident happens. I'm glad you like my last bit. I wanted to contradict the Gandhi quote cause not everything is insignificant.

It's weird when all you guys say I'm a good writer. I just get ideas. I don't know how or why, I just do. This is just a creative outlet for me that I love to do.
You guys can read my other stories if you haven't already.. My next story will be a spin off about CC and Kimber.... Already have ideas for them hahah
Thank you so much for commenting guys! I was freaking out when I saw 7 new comments and reading them makes me so happy! So literally, thank you so fucking much! I love you guys :) <3
