Remembering Sunday

When I opened my eyes up again, Zack was gone. I sighed and looked down at myself, every time I would look into the mirror I would cringe at my reflection looking back at me. I was tired of looking back at the same broken me. I didn't want to be broken anymore. I wanted to be whole again, I wanted to get out of that hole I had burried myself into. I was going to change the image I had become. I leapted out of my bed and threw some of my clothes on and grabbed my messenger bag. I ran down the stairs to see Zack and Jack sitting in front of the TV playing on Zack's playstation 3. I couldn't help but laugh some, which got their attention. They both smiled and made to pause their game but I shook my head.

"I am on my way out, see you when I get back." I waved and ran out the front door before they could stop me. I jumped inot my chevy Malibu. I had just got it from a birthday present. I pulled my cell out and called up a friend to make an appointment.

"Welcome to Jordan's drug house, what's your poison?" I had to laugh.

"Hmmm, I would have to say some of the hardcore stuff Jord." He let out a gasp.

"The Fallon Merrick is going to do drugs, I must sit down." I laughed again. "Nawww what can I do for you, girly girl?" I took a deep breath.

"I am calling to schedule an appointment." I waited for it and then nearly jumped out of my skin, almost crashing the car, when he squealed in my ear. Yes he did just squeal.

"OH MY GOD! I have been dying to get my hands on your hair for yars. You get your butt here now and I can fit you in, in fifteen minutes." I shook my head, laughing some.

"Alright, I am on my way." I said and he squealed again.

"Yay, I will see you then, bye Fallon." I smiled.

"Bye Jordan" and hung up the phone. I sighed and continued on to Slits and Cuts Salon. It was the salon that Jordan's runs. Jordan pretty much ran the the whole thing. The only thing he didn't handle was the money. I parked in the lot and took a deep breath and got out of the car. I walked in and was practically tackled to the ground.

"Oh my goodness, I thought that you were joking over the phone, I didn't expect you to really show up." He said. I smiled and hugged him back.

"Nope, I am here for my appointment." He practically pulled my arm out of the socket, bringing me over to his chair. Terry and Benjamin laughed seeing that.

"You know Fallon, the second you guys got off the phone, he wouldn't stop talking about how he has been wanting to get his claws into your head so to speak." I couldn't help but giggle at that.

"Alright, anything you want in particular?" He asked.

"Nope, you have complete and total creative control." He squealed once again, which caused Terry and Benjamin to groan in protest.

"Will you please stop doing that before I get a headache." Said Terry. Jordan pouted but did as told. He went to work on my hair. I had my eyes closed.

"So Fallon, I have to know something because I know you and it doesn't sound like you. At one of my parties this summer, people say they saw you go upstairs with Kellen Moore." I tensed up at the sound of his name.

"I know you girl and that just doesn't sound like something you would do." I sighed and looked down. "Hey", he said gently "you can tell me." I knew that I could just was scared to.

"I didn't want to Jordan. I didn't want to go up there with him. I had no idea where he was taking me. I was getting dizzy and when I saw where we were, I tried to get out but he wouldn't let me. Then he raped me and left me up there." I said quietly and heard all three boys take in sharp intake of breath.

"Have you told Alex?" Asked Terry. I shook my head.

"No, he wouldn't believe me anyways. I am over him anyways." I said and heard Jordan snort.

"Yea, okay, you are about as over Alex as much as I am over Survivor." I had to giggle at the anaology, he loved the survivor China because of Todd, the hot Flight attendant. I groaned and buried my face in my hands.

"You are right, I am so not over Alex." Jordan clicked his tongue and smirked at me.

"Don't worry, when I get done with you, he will be drooling on the ground and begging you back." He replied. I couldn't help but shake my head some.

"Thanks for the comforting words but I hardly doubt it. You should hear the vemon coming from his mouth. I don't think that he will want me again." I whispered.

"Well no matter what, you are going to be gorgeous nonetheless and who knows, you could attract an even hotter boy." He replied, winking, I laughed, shaking my head. I heard him saying he was done. I turned around and gasped. I thought my hair to make sure it was actually mine. He had dyed my regularly boring brown to a dark maroon with Blonde streaks. It was gorgeous, I couldn't believe that, that was my hair I was looking at. He clapped his hands together when he saw my happy reaction.

"Oh my goodness, I can't believe that this is my hair. I love it Jordan, I really and truely do." I jumped from my chair and huggedh im very tight.

"You are very welcome, now shoo, go and tell everyone or show them the new do." He said. I nodded my head, giving him one more hug and then one each to Terry and Benjamin. I walked out and I got nervous. I saw a guy starring which was surprisingly comforting but creepy at the same time. I got in and sat there. Was I really going to do this. I took one look in the mirror and for the first time, I didn't hate the person reflecting back at me.
