As a child you are very clueless to what is going on. As a child adults try to shield you out from harmful things. Some families don't care what their child sees or hears. They count it as a life lesson I guess. I think children just pretend they don't know what is happening, cause i knew half, i knew there were fights and hatred. I guess small brains just take a long time to process who is fighting.

"STOP TOUCHING MY DAMN STUFF! NEXT TIME I'LL KICK YOUR ***!"

"WELL.. IF YOU HADN'T GOTTEM MY PHONE TAKEN ANYWAY THIS WOULDNT BE HAPPENING!"

I hear my sisters fighting for the 100th time today. Watch tomorrow i will have to hear it again.

"WILL YOU BOTH SHUT THE HELL UP AND GET READY! IT'S A SCHOOL DAY AMD I REALLY DONT WANT TO HEAR MOM AND DAD YELL ALL DAY!" I say angry. My role in the family, as the oldest of my siblings, is to keep them together not arguing every secomd of the day.

Thats what we do. If arguing was a sport i think my family would win the world championship. Thats everyday life here. Tears fall. Hurtful words are said. But the thing is, it's like a game that can't be restarted. It saves all data and the lives we have left. Our hurtful words can't be taken back, even when we apologize.

"Yes, katey." They say in unison. Emily is 12, and Carly is 13. They already fit in with the family at such a young age. You know what i wonder?

Why, in all of my 15 years being here, have i not joined the arguements, instead of fixing them?

At school my life is almost the same. Just less fighting and more screaming. More people and even more agitating. Going into class and hearing the same talkative voices everyday. You start to wonder, do they plan this? Do they all just wake up one morning and think, "Let's talk in class today and annoy the people who actually want to learn." Or in my case, sleep.

As i was thinking and getting ready for class to start, my best friend Casey walks in. She looks excited.

"Do you know that there is a new student!?" She said.

"Yeah. Whats the big deal?" I said nonchalantly.

"THE BIG DEAL IS, HE IS SO FUCKING HOT!"

"Eh, he's okay. I mean I've seen many new students before. Now quiet the teacher is coming..shhh."

"Fine! Bitch!" She said.

"I love you too!" I said sarcastic. I love her but we like to play with each other like this. It's how we are and always have been. Casey is like a sister to me. She’s over my house all the time and she knows what my family is like, which proves they don’t care about what they do honestly.

"Alright class i would like to introduce you to a new student. His name is Trent Woods and he will be in this class starting today." When this Trent guy walked in the room, for the first time in forever, it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

I admit he is cute but not cute enough to obsess over.

"You can take a seat next to Katey Allen in the back."

I groan when he said my name, because with this guy sitting next to me, that means more poeple next to me.

"Ms. Allen is there anything wrong?"

"Ugh whatever can you just teach already? I wanna go home."

"Glad to see you’re rnthudiastic about school today mrs. Allen.” Mr teacher said sarcastic, “And Mr. Woods you can take your seat."

"Okay sir."

He sat down in the seat next to me. For a bit i felt his eyes watching me, but i ignored it.

I took my notes in class then fell asleep for the next 30minutes. When the bell rang for us to go to our next class, i was woken.

While gathering my stuff the guy trent says something to me.

"Hey do you not like me or something?" He said sort of nervously.

Hmm... I wonder why?

"No, you're cool." I say putting on my signature fake smile. I mean I don’t have a probable with the dude, I just don’t know him. I can see Casey giving me the be nice look as well. “It’s just I cant stand this place and the people in it aren’t fond of me either.” I shrug.

"Oh well I think you’re cool and we could possibly be great friends. If you want?"

"Yeah that'd be cool but if I don’t talk to you much don’t assume I don’t like. I do that to everyone "

"Its cool. So maybe we could hang out some time?"

"Yeah, that'd be fun, but now we have to get to class. What class do u have next?"

"Uhh... Math with Mrs. Caliber."

"Cool, we have the same class. Casey, lets go before we are late."

"Yeah you've been standing there flirting the whole time. Haha."

"Shut up! Let us all go to maths class, okay?"

"Okay!" Casey says.

"Okay." Trent says.
