Walking to school with Kacchan The next day was nice... well it was until we arrived on school grounds. Everyone stared at us because of where he had his arm around my shoulder. I could hear people whisper things as we walked by them. He didnt seem to notice, but I heard it all.

"Look at them. something is up for sure."

"Such a whore. I bet she put out easily to get with him. No way he'd do that otherwise."

"I bet that wont last. He'll get bored of her easily."

"you think if she was able get with him I'd have a chance?"

I started to feel very insecure. Was I being to easy? I really cared deeply about Kacchan, but was he aware of that? Was I just a temporary escape for him? As we entered the class room I quietly sat down in my seat at the back of the class. Being so quiet meant no one would notice if I kept to myself to internally panic over all of this.

By lunch time it seemed everyone in the school knew about us and the rumors were spreading like wildfires. When the lunch bell rang I quickly hurried off before anyone could talk to me, or so I thought. I was going out to the back near the gymnasium to eat alone, when a group of girls stopped me. I didn't know them cause they weren't in my class, but i had heard that at some point they had all tried to ask Kacchan out.

"So whats the deal with you and Bakugo?" one of them demanded.

"w-well.. it's uh..." i started stammering over my words.

"You little slut," a different girl growled, slapping me across the face. she slapped HARD. "I bet you were just putting out for him. You think sleeping with someone as cool and strong as Bakugo will get you popular or something?!"

I rapidly shook my head no. "I... he's just..."

"you want to be safe?" the third girl sneered. "Stay away from him. Or else. We will destroy you easily."

I know fear flashed in my eyes. The first girl punched me in my stomach, causing me to double over and fall to my knees. I felt like I was about to vomit. They quickly ganged up on me, throwing punches, kicks, hair pulls, anything to get their point across. I didn't fight back... i couldn't. It felt wrong. Maybe i deserved this... As they walked away I felt tears prick my eyes. I wanted to be with Kacchan, but I knew they were serious. And the words of all the gossip were circling in my head like sharks. I couldnt take this. I felt my heart race and my chest tighten. It felt like everything was closing in on me and I wanted to just run away. I quickly texted Izuku to tell the teacher I left early due to a stomach ache, then hurried home. 

By the time I reached my front door I had tears streaming down my face and was practically in full panic mode. I couldn't handle what had happened today. I didn't want to face those girls, the rumors, or even let izuku know. But more than anything, I didn't want to face Kacchan out of fear. He would probably see how weak i was and realize I was no good for him. I opened the door and saw my dad eating lunch on the couch. I had forgotten it was his day off. He looked over confused, but as soon as he saw my tears, swollen cheek, and multitude of bruises he rushed over.

"Sweetie what happened? Are you ok?" he asked in concerned panic. I couldn't hold myself together and I started to bawl my eyes out once more. I told him everything (except the part where we got handsy with each other) and just sobbed harder and harder. He hugged me closely and listened to everything while i drenched his shirt in tears. Being so close with my dad was such a blessing, because I could tell him all of this and he actually listened to me. When I finally started to calm down my crying he pulled away from the hugged and walked us over to the couch.

"Now Skully," he was using his nickname for me to try and lighten the mood, "what would make you the most comfortable in this situation? Let me know, and we will figure it out." I took a deep breath. I had already run through a bunch of options on my way home.

"I want to transfer schools... I don't want any association with that school..."

"And what about Bakugo?"

"I don't want to see him or talk to him..." I whispered. My dad gave me a sad gaze but nodded his head in an understanding fatherly way.

"I'll pull a few strings and see what I can do. An old friend of mine is a principle at an academy about thirty minutes away by train. Is that alright?" 

It was my first day at my new school. Two and a half weeks had gone by sense that day I came home crying. The first few days Kacchan came by every morning and afternoon to try and see me, but my dad turned him away. He texted me that whole week and tried calling countless times, but I never answered. I would always delete the messages or just mute my phone. He eventually stopped trying. Izuku reached out and I loosely explained what happened, but asked him to not let Kacchan know anything. He reluctantly agreed to it. He came over twice to visit, and explained he was super busy trying to prepare for the UA entrance exam. I understood completely, because I too had started training harder with my dad's help. The new school was at first a little hesitant to accept me due to it being the last half of the year, but after seeing my grades and test scores they agreed to it... and also with my dad having the principle be a friend helped. My training was proving to be very fruitful. I could push out more bones now, as well as harden them further. I also discovered I could make them lighter, causing me to be more flexible and able to move much faster. I developed two new moves using my spine, Scorpion's tail and Spine whip. With Scorpion's tail i elongate my spine out of my body like a long tail and make the tip long a pointed like a blade. Its great for offensive attacking wile still being able to defend, which I also have improved at. While experimenting with that I figured out Spine Whip, a move were I elongate and pull out my spine. Its very strong, heavy bone while still being flexible. i can grab objects with it, as well as use it to attack. I could tell I was getting stronger. All I had to do was get through the entrance exam and finish the school year, then I could finally close this chapter of my life. For once in a long time, I was excited.
