Broken

I’d love a road trip..I need to get my head off some stuff..Getting out of this place might be good for me..Summer school? Rae- Boo.

Yeah I think it might be good for all of us. I would like to graduate on time okay? Sue me. 

Well there are hundreds of kids who will disagree with you. Summer is going to be great, Rae.

Well Jordan and I were talking about a roadtrip. That might make it worth it? And I suppose I'll have time to catch up on my school work. I imagine I'll actually have to take summer school because I'm a bit behind. 

  I don’t know I wasn’t paying that close attention.  He’s not famous and he’s not my boyfriend so why should I care?

I guess that's true. Speaking of your boyfriend where has he been? Is he alright?

I don’t think so either. It’s only a month until the end of the school year. It went fast. I don’t know if I’m happy or sad about it.

I think you should be happy! It's almost time for you to start on bigger and better things. Of course it'll be bittersweet, but I will be looking forward to hearing about your college adventures. 

Not really.  And his dad was preaching about abstinence today which only made it better.

They still preach abstinence? I doubt even the preachers son is abstaining. On a completely separate note was he cute?

Really boring.  I spent the majority of it trying to get the preacher’s kid turned on and counting how many times he blushed.  The final count was 18.

Poor kid. I imagine it didn't take much to get him turned on did it?

My mom forced my Dad and I to go to church today.

How was it? I've never been to a proper church. 

One more month of school, I think I can do this. It would be nice if the teachers actually tried to keep me motivated.

I don't think they are all that motivated at this point.

I’m not doing anyone any favors, especially not for someone that isn’t ‘really’ a friend.

Fine we are friends then. You might actually enjoy this. You see I need some adventure in my life and you seem like the best person for the job. I really just want to get away from all the drama that seems to be surrounding me. I don't want to do anything illegal, just something fun. I want to unwind a little. 

Gee, way to notice I was gone.

I noticed. I just didn't know how long you've been gone. I have a million other things I'm trying to keep track off. I didn't think we were really friends anyway. 

Please don’t call me that.  It’s weird when anyone who isn’t River calls me that.  

Well I am Rivers twin. I hear him say it so I guess it's just habit. I don't know I like nicknames. 

It sucks.  I know.  Better than you think.

Alright Jordy I'll try. I'll figure all this out alright? I won't hurt anyone.

So...

How long have you not been attending? 

Will you quit with that?  You belong somewhere and I’m kind of tired of you always whining about your life.  Yeah shit happens.  But you’re not the only person who has had stuff happen to them, so stop acting like it.

I never said I was the only one Jordan. I'm starting to think I don't though. I mean if you look at the facts I just don't see myself fitting anywhere. And I'm having everyone telling me that the one place I feel comfortable in I need to leave. How do you think that feels? 

Well you definitely don’t belong in Robbie’s house either.

I don't belong anywhere.
