A New Start
Therapy
Katy’s POV
I woke up early the next morning to Pete bouncing on my bed. I groaned and opened my eyes to see his grinning figure hovering above me on my bed.
“Go away” I groaned and pushed him in attempt to remove him from my bed but he didn’t budge.
“Don’t wanna be late for school do ya? Plus I gotta pick up my schedule so you can show me where my classes are.” He said, grin still in place. I rolled my eyes and pushed again. He took the hint and left the room. I got up and got dressed. After putting on make-up and my shoes, I walked into the kitchen to see Pete. He wore his normal grey high tops and skinny jeans, along with a Blink 182 shirt. He picked up his bag and walked out the door with me following behind. The drive to school was quiet but not awkward. He obviously knew I was still tired and decided to keep his energy at a minimum until we reached school.
We walked into the office and picked up his supplies along with his schedule. I showed him to his classes, which we only shared second to last class together. Which was History, where he sat by me and wouldn’t stop talking. At the end of the day, I hesitantly walked into the classroom and sat in my normal seat. When class started I was surprised to not hear Alex talking to me. I turned my attention to my notebook and began doodling, ignoring the teacher’s rant on whatever. He seems to get worked up about a lot of things.
About half way through class I felt a familiar pair of eyes on me. I turned to see Alex’s eyes trailing over my eyes. I started staring at the clock, cursing it for not moving faster. I eventually grew past being anxious when there was only a minute left of class. The bell rang and I jumped from my seat and quickly walked to the nearest exit. I almost ran to my locker. Did I ever mention it’s on the opposite side of the school from my last class. I finally reached my locker and opened it, grabbing anything I needed. From the corner of my eye, I saw someone walk to the locker directly next to mine. He was of course taller than me so I got nervous.
I turned and saw the black haired boy from the night I moved in. He wore a plain white shirt that showed off his tattooed arms and tight black pants with red converse. His hazel eyes focused on the lock of his locker. He bit his lip ring in concentration, I suddenly found it adorable. I caught my staring and quickly turned back to my own locker.
When everything was packed up I shut my locker and turned to leave when I saw the boy scowling at something. I turned around slowly and saw Alex standing behind me, smiling down at me. My stomach dropped. I saw the boy turn around and walk out of the building. I tried to ignore Alex and walk away but he grabbed my back pack and dragged me into the boys bathroom, throwing me down on the tiled floor. He locked the door and checked each stall for anyone. When he was satisfied that we were alone he walked over to the corner I was sat in. I flinched when he crouched next to me. He just sat there studying me for a while. He suddenly grabbed me by the collar and lifted me until my feet left the ground, which was his height. I squeezed my eyes shut and waited for impact. What I wasn’t expecting were the unwanted pair of capped lips meeting mine. I tried to pull away but my head was against the wall, and my arms were grasping my shirt collar to keep it from strangling me.
He forced my mouth open and his tongue intruded inside. I cringed in discuss and Jack came back into my memory. This was how he treated me either before or after he would beat me. I bit down hard on Alex’s tongue. He suddenly removed himself from me and I feel like a ton of bricks to the ground. I quickly pulled myself back up and saw Alex was standing by the door, spitting up blood. He was fuming when he looked back up at me. He recovered pretty quickly. He was instantly in front of me knocking me to the ground and kicking me into the corner. I was pulled to the center of the small room and received several punches to my face, him stadling my stomach. When he grew tired or bored he leaned down and kissed me, forcefully. I sat still, afraid of angering him again. He stood up, washed the blood off his hands and left the room. I got up and looked into the mirror. My face was completely covered in blood. I washed my face until I could finally see my pale skin again. Blood gushed from my nose and busted lip, along with a few cuts on my face from the silver ring he wore.
I sighed and winced. My stomach and chest ached from the blows I received. I grabbed a handful of paper towels and wiped the blood off my face, holding one to my nose and lip to subside the blood flow. Then I grabbed my bag from behind the door and exited the bathroom. My phone buzzed, a text from Pete.
from:Pete
Where are you? I’ve been waiting in the car for 20 minutes. Hurry up or I’ll leave without you.
I ran out the door and into the awaiting car parked outside the school. I jumped in and closed the door.
“What happened to your face?” he asked motioning to the paper I held under my nose.
“I uh.. fell.. in gym.. and I had to go to the nurse..” I lied. He didn’t seem to believe it but he dropped the subject and started the vehicle.
“Oh I met some guys today. They seemed pretty cool and they like the same music as me. I have some classes with them. Their coming over later. That’s why I wanted you to hurry the hell up and get your ass outside.” he said quickly. I looked out the window. Hopefully they won’t make too much noise. I wanted to go home and do my homework then sleep. Pete seemed to sense my disappointment. “It’s only a few guys and their quiet so we won’t make a lot of noise. I want you to meet them but you don’t have to hang out with us the whole time. I just thought you might want to meet them.” He said, mumbling the last part.
“No it’s fine. It’s not like I have anything better to do anyways. You’re the mother in this relationship so you do all the housework.” I teased. He rolled his eyes but smiled.
“So what, that’s only because I have a lot of energy I don’t know what to do with and you know it. Plus.. one of the guys I met, his younger brother is coming too and he’s umm.. ya know.. kinda cute...” He muttered. I laughed.
“aww does Pete have a little crush on someone?” he laughed with me.
“I think we both knows it’s bigger than a little crush.” He giggled. After that we sat in silence as we reached our home. He ran to his room to change as soon as we walked through the door. I walked to my room and started on my homework, blasting St. Jimmy through one of my headphones. Soon my work was done and I was left sitting on my bed watching the ceiling. A spider crawled into my view. I yelped and leaped off my bed, then ran to Pete’s room, knocking on the door. He opened it right away. He looked at my face and worry crossed his features.
“There’s a HUGE spider in my room.” I said, emphasizing the word ‘HUGE’. He rolled his eyes and walked into my room with a cup and a piece of cardboard. I stood next to the door. Pete caught the spider and was carrying it outside. Then turned to me.
“You really know how to exaggerate when you see a spider, don’t you?” I nodded and attempted to walk back upstairs when someone knocked on the door. Pete gasped and turned to the door. I sighed and walked to the couch, kicking my feet onto the coffee table. Pete opened the door and let in his friends. Three boys walked in, greeting Pete. One boy had bright red hair, the smaller one next to him had straight brown hair and slim rimmed glasses. The boy behind them had a brown afro. I recognized the red haired one and the one with the afro, but Pete still introduced them as Gerard, the red haired boy, Ray, the afro boy, and Mikey, the one I assumed Pete had a crush on. I nodded as they greeted me and sat down on the couch.
“Frank and Bob are just down the road if you wanna meet them.” Gerard told Pete, who sat down next to Mikey. Pete just nodded and stared at Mikey. I smirked but kept my mouth shut. Soon two boys were outside the front door. Pete let them in. The boy from school, introduced as Frank, walked through the door along with the much larger, blonde haired boy that lives down the street, Bob. Frank walked in and immediately sat down next to me. Bob sat on the other side of Frank. We all sat quietly as Pete talked to gerard, Ray and occasionally Frank. I love the sound of his voice! Dang, what’s going on with me? Someone eventually mentioned music. Ray commented that he plays guitar sometimes. Pete said he plays bass and Mikey’s head shot up like a rocket. Pete grabbed Mikey by the hand and led him into his room to ‘show mikey his bass’ and left me alone with the other four boys. We all sat awkwardly staring at each other, well I stared at the ground. They soon started talking again.
About 20 minutes later Mikey and Pete walked back into view, with messy hair. I tried hiding my smirk with my hand but was caught by Gerard and Frank who smiled at the two blushing boys. Pete just stared at everyone triumphantly while Mikey was blushing like crazy.
“So Mikey, you still a virgin?” Gerard said raising his eyebrows. Mikey just glared at him.
“We didn’t do anything!” Pete defended Mikey, “unless you count makeing out as something.” He quickly added grabbing his boyfriend’s hand, smirking. I rolled my eyes and glanced at my phone. 8:48pm. I put my phone back in my pocket. Gerard announced that they had to leave so Pete walked them out. I watched him kiss Mikey by the door then wave by to them. He turned and saw me staring.
“Shut up.” He mumbled as he walked by and sat back down on the couch across the room. I smiled at him then sat in silence as Pete made conversation with Bob who was now sitting next to him.
___________Time lapse 10:00pm__________
Frank and Bob left an hour after Gerard, Ray and Mikey left. Now I’m sitting in my bed. Trying to fall asleep. My mind kept replaying the events that occurred earlier that day. Then Frank crossed my mind. At his locker. Wait, why was he even scowling at Alex? What did Alex do to him? Maybe I was the only one who didn’t know he was a creep. I cleared my thoughts and just tried thinking about good things to help me sleep. Frank crossed my mind once again. I didn’t push him out though. Might be the only way I can fall asleep. Soon enough I did. I even dreamt about him.
I woke up early the next morning to Pete bouncing on my bed. I groaned and opened my eyes to see his grinning figure hovering above me on my bed.

Notes
OMG Samoosifer I blame you for my fucked up feelings and mini episode I'm having right now. Great story though. If you guys get bored with my story, look up "The Strangly Familiar Midgit" on here. it's completely perfect. despite the fact that it is terribly sad. Samoosifer you should pay me for advertising your story! please? whatever.. ._.Sorry if the song titles don't make sense with the chapter at all.
I look up Austin Carlile and random people pop up. Like Billie Joe, Kellin Quinn, pierce the veil, oli skyes, Blink, Asking Alexandria, a day to remember, nevershoutnever, even frankie.. it's ridiculous, I'm not one to complain though. :)Can you name all these singers? I can, all but one.
