Eliza's P.O.V
"Oi, slut!"
I swallow nervously and thrust my books into my locker, trying to ignore them.

Yes, them. Luke Hemmings and his bullying mates; Michael, Zac and Calum.

I yelp as I feel a cold breath of air slide down the back of my neck. "Did you not hear me?" Luke questions, before tugging my hair around, so that I'm facing him.

"Y-y-yes, Luke" I duck my head, feeling even more nervous.

He punches me straight in the gut and I wince and slide down to the ground. Luckily for me, the bell for the start of school goes off and one of Luke's mates mutters,
"Luke let's go. We'll get her after class"

This has been my life for the last 3 years.
I moved to Australia in grade 8 (or year 8) from America and Luke and his friends have been bullying me since the second day.

On my first day though, that's why they started. Of course, I had a normal family in those times.

I would do anything to go back to the years that I was happy and carefree.

-FLASHBACK-
"Honey, are you ready for your first day?" My mum asked, smiling up at me from the kitchen table.

"Yep, first day of grade ei.. Sorry, year eight!" I reply, excitedly.

I look over at my dad who's sitting on a couch in the living room watching a football game. As if on cue, he turned around and flashed me a quick smile, which I warmly returned.

I walked towards the door and opened it after picking up my bag.

"Have a good day, sweetie!" My parents call out.

I pull the door closed and walk down to the bus stop, excited about my new school, Norwest.

When I got there, I pulled out my phone to check the time. Damn, I still had 15 minutes until school started.

I made my way down the corridor until I reached the office, where they told me which locker was mine and gave me my timetable.

After a few minutes I found my locker and just as I opened it, someone's arm slung around my shouldrs. I looked up, irritated, to see the most attractive boy I've ever seen.
I mean, for a 14 year old.

"What do you think you're doing?" I questioned, as I shook off his arm.

"Babe, you don't wanna do that" he smirked before slinging his arm over my shoulders again. "Get off me!" I yelled and he looked slightly taken aback.

I slam my locker closed and look around to find that quite a crowd had formed.

"Did she just reject Luke... Hemmings?" A murmur spread through the group.

"You don't want to do that, love" Luke stated, through clenched teeth, as glared down at me, his cheeks a little deep shade of pink from embarrassment.

"Is this your way of trying to get girls? Acting sleezy as all hell, you trying to compensate for your small package?" I smirk, before turning and walk away towards my first class, the laughs of students around echoing down the hallway.

After class, I started my walk to my next class, but stopped suddenly, when I heard Luke muttering to his friends around the corner. I poked my head around the corner, trying to be as quiet as possible.

"Dude, she embarrassed you big time." one of them said. A flash of anger came over Luke's face, before he responded.

"Don't worry. I'm gonna make her pay... Big time."

-END OF FLASHBACK-

I sat at the back of my maths class, trying to sort out year 11 algebra.
But I couldn't focus on it at all.
All I could think was,

'What are they going to do to me this time?'
