The First Of Many Fights


"How can you do this to each other? Do you even know what this is doing to me?" Joey wanted to yell through his door at his parents.
This was the first time his parent had ever had a fight. Joey saw it coming though, dad was gone late all month and mom just kept getting more and more depressed. They only took it out at him when he was around which now was next to never. The yelling was getting worse with no sign of stopping so Joey figured it would be easier to just get to sleep. Soon he was fast asleep listening to his favorite band Evanescence. Joey awoke to his mother pounding on his door.
"I will be right out mom." Joey said instantly awake.
"Hurry it up i will not be late to work because you slept in." His mother yelled back.
Joey jumped up and threw on his black and white sweatshirt, that he always wore, as well as his black pants. He grabbed his backpack and went straight to the car and plug in his music right away to avoid any conversations or fights this morning. His mom drove as fast as possible getting him to his school a good hour early. Joey got out of the car thanked his mom and walked to his first class with his head down.
"He looks so sad. Who is he?" Joey heard a new girl say.
"His name is Joey don't bother trying to help it's pointless you can't be his hero Ally." This voice Joey knew came from the lead cheerleader Marisa.
Marisa had at one point been his best friend she knew what happened to his brother, Aron, and that he had died. she knew about his parents getting worse in their marriage and how he snapped. It was then that she had left, right when he needed her most she just left him alone. He no longer had a brother to help him with the fact that his father was never around.
"Marisa everyone needs some one. Is he the one you were telling me about? The one who's brother died in the war?" Ally asked Marisa.
"Yes now Ally stop I am sure he can hear us and this is just rude it's none of our business." Marisa said sounding mad and ashamed.
Joey had stopped walking and sat on the steps to his school he was not feeling to good any more. Just then Ally and Marisa walked up to him. He almost told them to go away but he caught a glimpse of red hair covered by a black hoodie much like his own. He looked up and saw that it was the girl named ally and her blue eyes looked right into his.
"Hay I am Ally I ma new here you mind if we sit with you?" Ally said offering him her right hand.
"Uhm.... sure do what you want." Joey said shaking her hand with his right hand.
Even just that brief touch made his hand feel like it was tingling. Ally seemed to be looking at her hand as well but she soon seemed to forget what ever had her interested and sat down right next to him.
"Thanks for letting me sit with you. Marisa told me I was crazy for trying but I have been in your place before and know how lonely it is and I promised I would never let anyone else feel that way." Ally said looking right at Joey while she spoke.
"I did not say that!" Marisa whined.
"Hay Marisa no sweat it's cool. Ally thanks for the thought but you may want to listen to her this is something that you just can't stop. I am sorry but I got to go." Joey said looking at both for the first time lifting his head and then walked away from them.
He continued till he got to his first class. He felt the tears coming but he fought them off with every thing he had in him. No one had ever been that nice to him. Everyone else just left him be with his thoughts which were worse then anything else. He cloud not forget Ally all day he thought about her. She was the prettiest girl he had ever seen and was the first to talk to him in forever. Even when he walked home he was thinking about her. He was so lost in his thoughts of her he didn't even see his dad and mom fighting again. Once he reached his room he just slumped down on his bed and rested his head against the wall.
"Why would she of all girls be nice to me? What did she mean by she has been in my place?" Joey pondered. "Surly her folks are not or were not as bad as mine. Maybe her sister or brother passed away."Joey said thinking.
It was then that he heard his parents. Its only getting worse he thought. This will never end. They will only keep going on like this. The days kept passing Ally didn't talk to him for a while Joey started to think he had just imagined her kindness or scared her off. It had been two whole weeks since she had talked to him and he had given up. He just kept going on in his life and promised he would no longer think of her. He tried for weeks to keep his mind and eyes off of her but it was like the world was saying no. He kept seeing her in the hall, she got moved to his history class, and he kept hearing her voice in the morning. Finally he had enough and just decided to try and hate her, yet that same day again the world seemed to say no and Ally walked up to him and just sat down right next to him. At first his heart raced and he was confused but then he felt a light arm around his shoulder and then her head fell on his chest. Even more confused Joey just decided to look to see what she was doing. When he looked down however all he saw was her chest raising and falling hard, tears were staining her blouse.
"Ally? Are you ok?" Is all Joey could think and ended up saying.
"... I have no idea... Did I do something wrong? I mean I have no idea what I said or did but I am so sorry." Ally said now lifting her face to his.
"What are you talking about? You have done nothing wrong. Did I do something?" Joey responded confused as ever.
