I woke up feeling confident and sure of myself and what i was going to do today. I was going to go straight to the principal as soon as i got there. Pray that he was in the office, then tell him all about Niall and James and then i would be fine. He would have someone do something about them and i would be ok again.maybe he'd even remove them from my classes so i wouldn't have to see them anymore that would be amazing. How wrong i had been this morning sunk in when i stepped into the principals office. It was their father. the principal was their father. great just great. "please sit down" Mr. Horan said with a big smile on his face. i sat quickly before mt knees gave out on me. he had to be able to be objective when dealing with things involving his sons at least at work right? i let myself feel the tiniest little glimmer of hope at that thought. "so what can i help you with on this beautiful morning ms.?" he looked at me expectantly waiting for my name and my answer " Sarah sir and well its kind of complicated but i need your help or someones and its kind of important. he nodded and his smile vanished as he waited for me to continue. i took a deep breathe and looked down at my hands getting ready to try to explain to him how his sons had been bullying me since they had arrived here. "whatever it is you can tell me its ok" he said reassuringly. will it be though when its about your kids? i looked up at him. "i've been getting bullied, these two boys they keep harassing me and throwing spit balls at me and tripping me and calling me nasty names and treating me like crap. they're doing everything within their power to upset me degrade me. to the point where im struggling to force myself to come into school some days because i know they'll be here to torment me." he got very quiet for a moment after "do you know the names of these two students Sarah?"i looked down "yes sir." he sighed "ok well who is it then?" i still wouldn't meet his eyes " Niall and James Horan sir." he let out a loud laugh. "oh i get it you're one of the boys friends they sent you in here to play a joke on me. ha ha you got me!" i shook my head " no sir thats not what this is at all" i said confused. "im telling you the truth they have been bullying me since they got here ,they've even gotten physical with me" he laughed again " im sorry i cant take you seriously my boys? Niall and James? getting physical with a girl in any sense other than sexual intent doesnt sound like my boys at all!" i looked at him completely shocked " Excuse me sir?" i said my voice coming out an octave higher than it normally is. "well they are teenage boys you know how boys are! im sure you're just exaggerating and they just have a crush on you or something and they're fighting for you're attention that sounds much more believable than them bullying you honestly." my mouth hung open in shock. i just started at him in disbelief. he sat staring back at me smile firmly in place. i opened and closed my mouth waiting for words to come out but nothing did. "well now that thats settled ill see you later dear i have some work to get to have fun today" he winked at me as he ushered me out of his office. i stood there for a second not entirely sure what to do. as i realized there wasnt really much i could do about it now . i let a hopeless feeling take over me. i took a deep breathe and waled through the reception area and to the hallway where i was immediately tripped and fell flat on my face. i groaned and quickly got up and dusted myself off twirling around to see who the culprit was, and of course standing on either side of the door frame were Niall and James stood laughing at me.i rolled my eyes and started screaming at them, all of my frustration and anger choosing to come out in that moment in one long loud angry stream of words. they both stood there snickering as i yelled and when i finally quieted down. i realized that principal was standing a few feet away from the entrance to the reception area looking at me like i had lost my mind. he took a few more steps and was out in the hall looking me in the eyes "are you finished now?" he said calmly i nodded " good, detention for screaming in the halls and cussing in school." he said sternly and began to walk away. after that i walked away quickly "whats wrong princess? try to tell our daddy on us and it didnt work?"they laughed "well looks whos in trouble now sweet cheeks" i ignored them as i picked up my pace and booked it to class. taking comfort in the thought that at lease they wouldnt be there immediately to harass me as they were still in the midst of enjoying their latest assault.i sat in a chair next to the wall since i was the first one there that way they could both sit beside me. i sat alone in silence for a few minutes and silently prayed that they would be too bad today. after people started filling in and the teacher came and announced "in your assigned seats please" i sighed as i went and took my seat in between Niall and James. "aww didnt want to sit with us today love?" James said from my left "my feelings are hurt" Niall said from my right holding his chest where a hear belongs. i ignored them which only made them come at me with much more and much worse. the whole day was a haze of unrepeatable things being said to her and things being launched at her whenever the teacher weren't paying attention. the chosen objects became more and more painful every time. by the end of the day i was completely done and ready to home. but i had one more class science. the class goes as the res of the day has. at the end of the class a project was announce and it was an important one worth half of our grade. and because of that we arent allowed to pick our own partners. they would be pulled out of a hat at random. almost the whole class had been paired up when my name finally got pulled out and then the next one i thought i would cry. " Niall Horan"
