Never Say A Word

Chapter 1

First day of school. 12th grade. This schools a hell zone. People being bullied for every little thing. You'll be surprised at how many girls are cutting theirselves when you walk into the bathroom. How many people get beat up each day.
"Hey Jen."
"Hey Cal." I said smiling at my best friend Calum Hood.
"You ok?" He asked knowing that the most popular boy in the school will come after me.
"Right now? Somewhat."
"I promise I'll protect you."
"Calum I know that neither of us believe that for a second."
"...Yeah you're right." He said looking at the floor. Luckily we have lockers next to each other. We put our stuff in our new lockers and when I closed my locker door someone was leaning against the lockers smiling at me. Luke Hemmings, tall, blonde hair, blue eyes, every girls dream boy, until you figure out that he's the most popular boy in school and bullies everyone.
"Hello, Jennifer." He said.
"Hello, Luke." I copied trying to make it look like I didn't care.
"I see you didn't change." He said rudely looking me up and down.
"I see you didn't change either. Well actually now that I think about it, you have changed something." He looked at me a little confused. "You're shitty insults. You're going to have to try harder than that if you want to effect my year." Then he slammed me against my locker making me hit my head really hard on it.
"Listen here bitch! You do or say anything bad to me you're fucking dead!"
"Leave her alone!" Calum barely yelled.
"What was that weakling?"
"I said leave her alone!" Calum said louder.
"Ha! If this is your protection Jennifer, you'll be dead by tomorrow!" Luke said pulling me forward then slammed me back against my locker. He smiled letting me go. "Have a good day!" He said and he started walking away laughing. "Like that will happen!"
"You ok?" Calum asked.
"Yeah." I said rubbing the back of my head. "Let's just get to 1st period." I said and he nodded. We quickly and quietly walked to class trying not to draw attention to ourselves. When we walked in the first people I noticed were Ashton and Michael. Ashton Irwin, super nice, caring, probably the only nice person at this school I'm not friends with. Michael Clifford, trouble maker, funny, loud, if there's trouble anywhere he's most likely the one who caused it.
"Hey guys." Ashton smiled waving.
"Hey." I smiled. I looked at Michael who was sitting on his desk leaning his chair with his feet. "What are you doing?"
"Sitting. What does it look like?" I shrugged. The rest of the class came in and Calum and I sat next to them. With Michael on my right and Calum on my other side. Then someone hit me hard on the back of my head right where I hit it against the lockers. When they walked past me I saw that it was Luke. Great he's in my first period. The bell rang and the teacher walked in. She was probably the oldest teacher in this school and a freshman teach is 73. She slowly made her way to the front of the classroom, then she wrote something on the board. After she moved I saw she wrote "history class."
"Ok when I call your name say here." She said quietly. She read the names and class was halfway over. A paper flew onto my desk and I looked over at Michael and he pointed to it and lipped "read it." I opened it, it had a bad quick drawing of a person sitting at a desk asleep. "Most boring class ever!" The note said. I looked at Michael and he pretended to be asleep and I silently giggled. The bell finally rang and we went to our lockers finding out that Ashton and Michael had lockers next to ours.

School was finally over and the 4 of us were on the bus.
"Move!" Luke yelled at Calum who was sitting next to me.
"No."
"I said move fucker!" He said pulling him out and pushing him to the ground. He sat down next to me and smiled.
"Go away." I said.
"No."
"Go away!" I yelled pushing him and he fell. Everyone laughed. He got up and looked at me with his hands in fists. Uh-oh. He grabbed me and when I was in the aisle he pushed me and I fell back. He started kicking me hard in the stomach.
"I told you you're dead if you do or say anything bad to me!" He yelled through his teeth. Ashton, Michael, and Calum got him away from me and I sat in a seat with Michael.
"Thanks." I whispered.
"He's a dick of course I'll protect you. Besides I'm the only one who can take him." He smiled.
"...sure you can." I said. The 4 of us talked the whole time on the ride till it came to our stop, the last stop.
