I woke up and I realized I was graduating from High School today, bolted up, took a shower, and got dressed but then I thought about Jack and a shutter went down my spine.

I had avoided him for weeks thinking of a way to break up. I was scared out of my mind, thinking of what he would do to me. He's always been verbally abusive to me but what if he gets physical? Whatever, I’ll think of something.

I walked downstairs to see my father passed out on the couch. This has been the first time he had been home in weeks, I saw a bottle of Vodka on the table next to him and realized he was still going to be drunk when he woke up, but I just walked to the kitchen. I thought Calum was still in bed but I was wrong, I walk in and see a cake sitting on the counter with my big brother sitting next to it. He got up and fired a confetti popper. (which scared the shit out of me) Laughing he then came up to me and gave me a hug.

“Congrats Jessie Boo” He said.

“Thanks, but you know I hate that nickname” I pretended to scold him.
“I gotta go, I’m going to be late for band practice. Do you have your speech?”

“Of Course… Now go to practice” I said to him giving him a hug

He grabbed his jacket and told me good luck but before he left he blew another confetti popper and ran out the door. A couple minutes later I hear foot steps in the hall. ‘Dad must be awake’ I thought. He walked into the kitchen and looked at me.

“Did you blow those fireworks in my house?” He asked.

“Yeah, me and Cal were celebrating” I said

“Why?”

“Because I’m graduating today.” I answered

“You woke me up!” He said angrily walking over to me

“I-I’m sorry!” I stutter

“You should be, bitch” He says towering over me now

He slaps me and I fall to the ground. I look up at him teary eyed, I stand up and stumble to grab my keys and my speech before heading out the door.

“Don’t walk away from me, bitch! Come back here!” I ignore him

I start my car and drive a block or two before stopping and waiting a couple minutes, thinking I’m going to be too early. I break into tears, not only because my face hurt but because my dad is an alcoholic and because I don’t know what to do about Jack.

I clean myself up and get to my graduation; I see my friends and go stand by them. I then gave my speech, got my diploma, and we threw our caps up. I saw my friends and started to walk over but then I felt a hand grip my arm, they turn me around and I see Jack smirking at me. He leans in for a kiss but I lean back, he pushes again but I refuse.

“What the hell? Kiss me” he says

“No, Jack we need to talk.” I say seriously

“What is this about” his voice almost growling

“I don’t think we should see each other anymore”

“What did you just say to me, bitch?” he snarled

“We’re over!” I repeat
