JANELY

Even though I had asked my siblings for some advice on what I should do. Her words still can't leave my head. I'm really starting to like this kid, and she just wants to take him away from me. What if he's my only chance at happiness? Or maybe even my only chance at love? I walked through the halls at school only to be met by a smack to the face. It caused me to fall to the ground and cover my cheek. It was Aaliyah. I looked at her and she said "Shush. Don't even ask. I smacked you because I can. Who let you walk out the house like that?" I sighed and rubbed my cheek. "I let myself walk out the house like this." She crouched down next to me and gave me another hard smack across the face. Then another, and another, and another. She just kept going. Until someone pulled her away from me. I was covering my face, my cheeks were stinging and burning. I heard yelling, but I couldn't tell from who.

Next thing I heard was stomping and a faint smack right to the face, probably. Next thing I knew, a figure was looking down at me and helped me up. To my surprise, it was Sora. Looks like he was the person who got smacked. He rubbed his cheek. "You didn't have to help me." He shrugged and said "What kind of friend would I be if I didn't? She was just smacking you. I know what you went through, Hiro let me know. I know that probably brought back memories for you." I nodded my head "I tried to control myself from screaming and running away." Sora put a hand on my shoulder "You did good. I'm glad I was here to stop her. Come on, I'll walk you to your class and to make sure she doesn't come and attack you again. He motioned his head. "Can never be too careful." I nodded my head and walked with him.

I looked down as I was walking. Just why...why must I be bullied...? I can't wait until one day I have the permission to make her life a living hell. Do everything she did to me right back to her, and maybe even worse. I just crave for the day to come. For now, I'll deal with this. I'll be counting down the days until her last breath.

After some of my classes had passed by, I looked at the walls and saw some flyers. I stopped by one of them and read what is on it. "Basketball tryouts..." I looked at another one that looked different and it said Cheerleader tryouts. Of course, I already knew who would be signing up for these. I can never picture myself as a cheerleader so I won't even try. Mingi passed by me and patted my head. "Sup, Janely." I smiled and said "Hi Mingi. You gonna sign up for basketball tryouts?" He nodded his head. "I do every year, it's my last year here so, I'll try and make it count while I can." I sighed. "I forgot it was your last year here. It's literally just my first. I'm gonna miss you." I pouted. He chuckled "I'll still visit your house, little one. I won't be too busy to pay you and your family a visit." I took my pinky out "You promise?" He wrapped his pinky around mine and smiled. "I promise." Before he could go, he asked me something. I smiled and promised to keep it a secret.

Where was Hiro today? Did he accidentally sleep in again? Or was he making out with Sora in the janitors closet? ...I'm definitely going with my second choice. They're probably fucking. Gross.

HIRO'S POV

Yep. I was in the janitors closet. Again. Waiting for Sora this time. I peeked out to check if there was any sign of him, and there wasn't. But there was definitely some sort of tea going on around here. Time for me to go find it out. I walked out of the janitors closet after checking the perimeter, and I walked around to try and find some tea. I heard a voice, and I hid behind the wall.

"No, no. I'm just trying to get close with her first. I promise I'll be able to finish this mission, it's just way tougher than I thought. You guys always give me the hard missions..."

I peeked my head out to see who it was and to my surprise, I was not expecting that. I hid behind the wall and ran off. I couldn't tell anyone about who I just saw or I'll be in some big trouble.

I got pulled into the janitors closet by Sora. He had shock written all over his face. "Ssshhh...we have to be quiet, Hiro. You saw what I saw, right?" I nodded my head and said "I saw him talking to-" Sora covered my mouth and we heard footsteps pass by the janitors closet. Shit, we were almost caught. I looked at Sora and removed his hand from my mouth and whispered "That was him...?" Sora nodded his head. Then we heard footsteps passing by the janitors closet again, and the entire hallway went silent. Shit, we were in some big trouble now. We heard the voice say outside of the janitors closet "Come out or I'm going inside." We looked at each other and walked outside...

JANELY'S POV

I was searching around for Hiro and Sora. Don't tell me they literally fucked each other's asses sore. They do have a habit of doing that. As I was walking, someone grabbed my hair and slammed me into the lockers, almost knocking me the fuck out. I looked up at who it was and it was Katniss. Katniss started speaking. "I'm going to repeat myself one more time. Leave Kai alone." I responded "I was hardly even near him today." She smiled and said "Keep it that way. He's mine. He's my chance at love and my chance at happiness." I gagged at her choice of words, as if I didn't think the same thing earlier today. She smacked my face and pulled my face closer to hers. "Do you understand? Stay the fuck away from my man. Sooner or later, he'll be mine. He'll forget all about you as soon as he dates me. But don't worry, I'll invite you to the wedding. Just make sure not to wear white and don't ruin anything."
