Damned If I Do Ya, Damned If I Don't

Two

We swam and talked, he told me all about himself, his name was Alexander William Gaskarth, he was 18 and had just moved here from a private school and also he played guitar. We talked for hours and it was only when it started to get dark that I realized I was supposed to have been back at five. It was now nearly six.
"Shit, I need to get back" I said
"Oh, do you need a lift? " replied Alex
"That, wait I hardly know you, you could be some sort of psycho" I said
"If I was a psycho I would have killed you by now trust me" he laughed
So I got into his car and he drove me home, he journey felt long and we didn't speak until he pulled up and my drive and handed a piece of paper
"Please?" he whispered
I looked at the piece of paper in my hand, it was his number
"Maybe.." I said and winked at him

When I came in all I got was abuse from everyone except my gran who was the only one who asked if I was ok. my mum yelled at me that I was selfish for making them worry, but it was Holly who made me really mad.
"She was with a boy I seen him drive her home" she smirked
"He is just a friend, why won't you believe me ?" I screamed back at her
"Cause you aren't part of this family" mumbled holly
Everyone fell silent after that, I just stared at her then at my "parents", they didn't say anything, no one said anything until my gran spoke
"How dare you say you, Katie is as much a part of this family as you, you are an evil and shallow child" my gran said to Holly
"But" stuttered Holly
"But nothing ! get out of this house until you can apologize to your sister" hissed my gran "And you two need to get a backbone a stand up to that brat you call your child"
My parent both looked at each other then walked out the room and upstairs. Once they were gone I fell to my knees and cried, my gran held me and told me it was ok
"I want to stay here with you gran, forever" I sobbed
"I think it would be for the best if you stayed" she smiled
I smiled back at her.
