"You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used agianst you in the court of law..." the cops words mumbled on. Here i am agian. Being here at the wrong time. I work at the auto shop in our small town. Mason, also known as, skull, owns the body shop. He called me down to get my paycheck. But, here is the catch mason is a drug dealer. I came up in my camro, walked in the building and bam! All these freaking cops surrounded me. I put my hands behind my head as they took me down. I was in their custody now.
My whole life, my parents filthy rich money got me out of trouble. I felt so angry. They walk me through the steel doors. The worst sound is having that steel door scraping the steel sides. Then, have door click shut. They bring me to a room to change into my new orange suit. Just wonderful. i pull the suit up. The man put my cuffs back on and lead me to the phone. "You have one call," the gruff man says. "Thanks," i grit. I dial the one number i always dial when in trouble. The number is tattooed on my brain. It rings twice before I hear a voice. "Hello," i clear my throat before speaking, "hey, mom,"
Mia's P.O.V.
"We're getting a divorce. Mia. We dont expect you to be okay with this," my father started. "Okay, dad! Collin just died a year ago. A drunk driver took him from us. And now your destroying our whole family! How do you expect me to be okay with our family falling apart!" i scream. "Mia..." my mother started. "Don't Mia me, your the one who's always telling me to fight through the hard times. Ever sense Collin died, all you have been is a coward. You havent been fighting for this family. your supposed to fight for us mom! Neither of you are fighting. Your both cowards," i screech as hot tears spill down my face. Collin wouldnt cry at this. He would say 'whatever makes you happy' But, Collin's not here. Collin is gone he died a year ago. All that they have ever done is compare me to Collin. They would want me to be mature like him. But, thats not me. All that i wan to be is free. I dont want to live in this huge house. i want to live in the woods. Where you wake up the fresh smell of hte outdoors. Where you watch the birds soar through the air, just being free. I just want to be free. To be myself. "God Damnit, Mia." my father shouts. "you can never be mature and think that some people dont have the time anymore to fight for love," he screams. The tears keep flowing down my tan cheeks. I look up at him from my seat. Another tear flows down my face is i say, "you dont need the time, you need the will." I push the chair back wit so much force it falls back. "Mia Mackenzie Evans," my mother yells as i fly out the door. i run all the way to the park, 10 blocks down. i fall on my back into the grass. I pant heavily. The tears mix with sweat. How could they? collin left me alone. No that drunk driver took Collin from me. Now my parents are leaving eachother. If only i could find the will to be stong as my family falls into darkness...
Chapter 1: one year later. Mia's P.O.V.
First day of ridge field high. Wonderful. I am now living wiht my dad and his new wife. i refuse to call her mom. My alarm finally stops going off and i try to go back to sleep. thats when tracy, my step mom, decides to come on and wake me up. "Rise and shine, sleepyhead." she sings. I groan and pull the pillow over my head. She pulls the curtians revealing the blinding sunlight. "First day of school, so exciting." she squeals. She goes out of the room mumbling about how exciting it is that it is my first day. I try to close my eyes, but the sun is giving no mercy to day. I groan and throw my covers off my body. I pull on a tight crop top and high waisted jean shorts. I pulled my hair up in a french braid and added my makeup. I grab my bag and head down stairs. Dad is already at the attorney office. Andtracy is in her reading nook, reading. I grab my keys and toast. i get in my black cobra and start the drive to school. Once in the parking lot i take a deep breath. This day is going to suck. I take a deep breath and open the door. I go over to the passenger side to grab my bag. Dust is flying when a camro pulls up beside me. A boy gets put of the car. and our eyes lock. My first thought about the boy is.... he has got to be the hottest boy i have ever seen.
Dylan's P.O.V.
Its official my alarm clock is my worst enemy. I hate it with all my heart. I hate school. I get up and take a shower. After im finished i wrapped a towel around my waist. I get dressed in a navy blue shirt, boots, and jeans. i grab my back pack and go down the stairs. I see my mom is her huge kitchen cooking a huge breakfast. i sit down on a stool. My mother comes and kisses the top of my head. My fathers in New York doing busniss. She piles eggs and bacon on my plate. "Are you excited for your first day of school?" she asks. i look up from my plate and quirk an eyebrow. "Thought not," she says with a shake of her head. I finish my breakfast and kiss my moms cheek. "Have a nice day, sweetheart. Im sorry your father isnt here," she says. I give her a fake smile. "Its okay, i have the best mom. i dont need him." i say. she shakes her head. "love you, dylan." she says. "love ya mom," i say grabbing my camro keys. I get in my car and pull out of our paved drive way. I turn the radio up. I start to beat the steering wheel to the beat of the song. "its where my demons hide, its where my demons hide" i sing horribly. I blaze past the stop sign and look behind me for cops. Thankfully none where there. I shake my head. "whoops." i say. I pull into the school parking lot beating the steering wheel to the music. I pull next to an unfimiliar girl. She is bending down when i get out of the car. I do have to say, she's got a pretty hot body. Our eyes connect. I feel someone pull my arm. The most annoying girl in school is standing next to me. She is also the most popular girl. "Thats the new girl," she says. I tear my eyes from the new girls and look to Emma to nod. I look back at the new girl checking her phone. "Whats her name," i ask. Emma shakes her head. "Thats where you got me. But, i have heard that her dad is the new attorney for the state." she says. I nod agian. The bell rings and she turn to me. Our eyes connect. She gives me a tight smile and heads off to school. Maybe, this year will be better than the last.
Mia's P.O.V.
The boy is staring at me agian. His dark hair is short and styled. His strong jawline compliments his high cheek bones. His nose is slightly crooked. Probably because he had it broke before. The bell rings. I clear my throat and give a tight smile. He bites his lip snd turn to school. I tear my eyes from him and walk into school. Everybody is staring st me and whispering 'new girl'. I hate all this attention. I just want to get to class. I pick up the speed and i an basiclly running down the hall. I open the door to the office quickly and shut it quickly. The secratary looks startled when she says, "Well who are you? Oh! My mistake, you must me the new girl." she says. I nod and she struts to the file cabinet. She looks at the file then says, "Mia Mackenzie Evans?" she asks. I nod again. "Here you are sugar. You scedule and locker number are in the envolope. Have a nice day," she say looking back at her computer. "You too," i mumble. I go out the door and nearly knock someone down. "Oh my god! Im so sorry," i say picking up her books that she dropped. She giggles. I look up at her and hand her the book. "Im the one who usually says that," she says with a giggle. "Well not this time. You have a new clumsy girl at your school." i say with a smile. "Im Jocelyn by the way," she say offering me a hand. I take her hand,"Mia Evans," She smiles. "Welcome to the suckiest school ever to be built." she says. I laugh. She snaches the scedule out of my hand. "American Literature. Right this way, Mia," she says. I think i have just made a real friend.
Dylan's P.O.V.
Everyone is hustling to get to their class. I walk to my first class, american Literature. I hate this class. I just hate all classes. Im supprisingly a b average kid in my classes. The bell hoes off as i sit down. The new girl slips in before the teacher closes the door. She walks up to the desk and places a piece of paper on Mr. Adams desk. The teacher looks up at her and say something i didn't catch. The new girl nods her head as her answer. "Class we have a new student. Mia Evans. I hope that we all will make her welcome." he says. Thats when Emma's crew laughs. I roll my eyes. Mia. Hmm, unique and beautiful at the same time. She takes the seat next to mine. Mia pulls out her notebook and pen just when Mr. Adams starts talking. She scribbles furiously in her notebook. Part of her braid starts to fall out and she tuks it back in place. I smile when she sticks the tip of her tongue to her top lip. She look up at Mr. Adams talking and goes back to scribbling. I hear a 'psst' and i look over to see Cameron, my best friend, nod his head to Mia then raise his eye brows. I shrug my shounders and say, "she's cute," Cameron shakes his head and laughes quietly. I chuckle with him. "Mr. Revolt am i enterupting anything?" he asks. "Mr.
