Lovers or Enemies

Chapter 1

I kept fidgeting in my seat, trying to stay still. I was itching for the bell to ring because today was the day I would actually make it home without getting sent to the office. My mom practically begged me not to get sent to the office today, so I've been trying all day not to get into a fight again. The bell had finally rung, the first thing I did was shove a few kids out of my way. I dashed down the hall and right through the front doors, I say my mom's car waiting for me.

As I ran towards her car, I ran into a guy taller than me.

"Watch where you're going," He calls to me.

"Or maybe you should watch where you're standing," I say to him before getting into my mom's black Chrysler.

"Hey, sweetie, did you get into any fights today?" she asks.

"Almost, but it doesn't matter," I respond.

"You know you can tell me anything," she says before driving.

We got home, I practically jump out of my mom's car. I speed into the house and up to my room... It's a habit and my routine everyday... Ever since my dad died, I haven't really been one to talk... and I've been getting into trouble... like a lot of trouble... My mom has been trying to get over his death by getting rid of his stuff... she's a single mom, trying to take care of a troublemaker... I'm surprised she hasn't started drinking or smoking... most would... Now you may be wondering how my dad died... that's a long story for a different time...

I run-up to my room, slam my door, and lock it... then I went on my laptop and started hacking into the school's grading system... I forgot to tell you, I'm a hacker, a fighter... and I could honestly care less about school... If my mom sees my grades, I'm dead... she will make us move once again... To be honest, I don't have a problem with moving, but let's just say... I don't think I can handle my mom being disappointed in me... or at least not anymore disappointed... also, she has made some friends and she kind of seems happy... I don't like seeing my mom cry... she's the most important person in my life... and I'd do anything for her... so if anyone disses on my mom... they get to deal with me... My dad's funeral was hectic, I lost half of myself... but when I found my mom crying every night for months after it... it made my anger develop... so I didn't cry... I couldn't cry...

A few months after my dad's funeral, my mom told me we were moving, so she got rid of my dad's stuff... then we packed our stuff and moved to California... one to two months later, she told me we were moving again... and a few more times after that... and that leads to now...

I'm Maddie Rein Black, and this is my story.

After I was done hacking I went downstairs and watched a movie...

After it finished, I decided to go back upstairs and shower... when I was finished in the bathroom, I got dressed and checked the time to find it's dinner... I went downstairs again... my mom had already left for work... she works two jobs, so I am usually alone for dinner... I finally decided to make some mac and cheese...

Once I was finished eating, I went to the living room and watched all of the x-men movies... Once I felt my eyelids getting heavier... I turned the TV off and went to my room... before I let the darkness take over... I checked my messages.
