Sight
Chapter 5
�Lizzie!� Olivia said tapping Liz on the shoulder. �huh?� she asked her eyes flickering open and taking a look around. �School starts in like 15 minutes!� she answered looking to the clock. �Ugh� Liz said falling back to her pillow. �Your still fully dressed!� Liv said handing Liz a pair of black flares and a red sweatshirt. �I know!� Lizzie answered felling that her eyes were a little puffy. She sat up and grabbed a hair tie on her night stand and pulled her hair up into a neat ponytail and stood up trying to forget everything around her.
=====
�So me and Jess are going to the Christmas Dance together! And it is going to be the best night of my life!� Olivia gushed thinking about Jesse. �That�s great Liv!� Lizzie said lost in her own thoughts. �What�s wrong? Are you and Chris going together?� she asked. �I�m not counting on it!� she said with a sigh. Then she pulled up to the school and turned off the radio and prepared herself for another grueling day of High School.
=====
�Ahh, 3 days to the Dance, and Mike hasn�t even asked me yet!� Kiki panicked as she and Lizzie and the rest of the decorating committee sat at one of the lunch tables discussing the budget. �So!� Mandy, another one of the snobs shouted snapping her fingers in Kiki�s face. �Stop you guys!� Liz sighed. �Well it�s not like you have a date either!� Kiki glared at her. �And the total of steamers coasted $34.16!� Liz said ignoring the comment.
Another 30 minutes of bickering and fighting and the lunch period was over. Liz grabbed her bag and ran to the bathroom.
She splashed some water on her face and dried it off with a disposable towel. She took a good look at herself in the mirror, they say eyes are the windows to the soul. She squinted to see, and it was true, you good see the hurt and confusion in her eyes.
=====
�Liz!� she heard a guys voice say when she left the bathroom. She spun around to see Hunter McLean, one of those 3 past boyfriends. �Oh, Hunter, hi!� she said turning back around heading for her class, she knew she was already late, the hallway was empty.
�Don�t just turn your back on me!� he stated. �Hunter, I got to get to class!� Liz stated looking at him blankly. �You don�t have to go anywhere!� he said grabbing her wrist. �Oww, let go of me!� she said before he yanked on her arm forcing her into him. �What�s you problem Lizzie, you don�t love the Hunt anymore?� he said pushing her up against the wall. �Hunter, what is wrong with you!� she asked confused, he pinned her arms above her head to the wall.
�Kiki told me what you did!� he said. �What did I do?� She asked confused. �You stole $65 worth of weed from me! I wondered where it went!� he said. �I didn�t take it! I don�t smoke weed!� she said shaking her head. �Don�t lie to me Liz!� he said digging his nails into her soft skin. �Give me the money!� he said.
�Ah, I don�t have it!� she yelled back at him. �You shouldn�t have taken it if you didn�t have the money!� he shouted at her. �I didn�t take it!� she stated again. �Liz! You always were a liar!� he said slapping her. She didn�t know what to do, so first thing that popped into her mind, then she spit on him. �Ahh, Liz!� he shouted releasing her and wiping his eyes.
She then took off running down the hall. �Get back here!� he yelled after her chasing her. She ran past all the classes, wanting to stop at the Principle�s Office. She ran up to the door and pushing down on the knob, it was locked, she did it again, then pounded on the door. No one answered.
She decided that he was to fast to out run, but how else would she get away no one was in the office and it was locked, she couldn�t turn around and go to one of the teachers, what was she to do. So she ran to the front doors.
She pushed them open letting her free, as long as he didn�t follow her she was fine, but freezing, her jacket was still in her locker. �Damn it Lizzie!� he yelled pushing the doors open and running up to her. �Hunter no!� she yelled at him running to the parking lot, drifting snow flakes landing in her eyelashes making it hard to see.
Her car in view now she picked up pace, just as Hunter did. Almost there, almost home free. Then she slipped on a puddle of slush falling, landing on her hip harshly. �Oww� she could hardly move, in pain and out of luck, she grabbed her car keys from her pocket and clicked the unlock button and heard it click.
She pushed herself up when we was a few feet away, no more then 10. She limped over to her car and opened the door falling in and struggling to close the door. She hit the lock button on the side panel of the door and stuck the keys in the ignition. He pounded on the glass of her window. But the car didn�t start. She twisted the keys again no luck. �Ah, you stupid thing!� she yelled trying one more time, and it started, she lucked out.
=====
�Why the hell would I steal pot!� she said to herself driving home. �There would be no use for it! I don�t do drugs!� she told herself. �Kiki told me� Hunter�s voice echoed in her head. �Err� she let out a frustrated groan speeding up to get home, Kiki wasn�t going to get away with it, she had pulled this crap with almost every girl she couldn�t befriend successfully. But what Kiki didn�t know, is that Liz had something on her too.
