When you write this once already, and it doesn't save...

"I can't believe Charlie would do something like that, to you. I mean he's just not like that." Vicki said to me, as we were eating lunch.

"I know, that's what I can't stop thinking about. He's never done anything like this to me. Ever." I said to her.

Vicki shook her head. "I'm sorry Spence. I really am. This sucks."

I nodded, and smiled at her. "At least I have you... and Mrs. Palin." I laughed.

"Who?"

"My English teacher. She's my favourite teacher. And the only person I trust at that stupid school. " I said.

"What if she could help you with Charlie, or something. I mean what if you could talk to her about Lucy?" Vicki said, I thought about it for a moment.

"Like with what?" I asked. This was actually a really good idea.

"You said she manipulates people, right? So talk to other people, I mean she probably bullies people too. Then talk to Mrs. Palin so you can expose her for her true self." She told me.

I smiled at her. "Vicki! That's brilliant!"

I woke up in a dark room. I was laying on a mattress. There didn't appear to be any windows, but there was a door.

Someone walked in and knelt down next to me.

"Get up." A familiar voice said to me.

I did what I was told, and stood up.

"Follow me." They said. I followed.

We left the dark room, and started walking in a dimly lit hallway.

They stopped in front of a room.

"Go in there, she will be in with you shortly." They said.

Confused, and unsure, I walked into the room.

There was a single chair, and two metal rings hung from the ceiling, and several sharp weapons were stored in a metal case.

I sat down in the chair, still unsure of what was happening.

A girl walked in, wearing all black, and heels.

She didn't say a word to me, just walked over to the metal case containing the weapons.

She took out a long black whip.

"Go over there," she said pointing to the wall.

I got up from the chair and did what I was told.

She ripped off the back of my shirt, and pulled the whip back and it hit my backside. I cried out at the pain, she did it over and over again until I was numb from the pain, and fell to the floor. I couldn't hear anything, and everything was blurry.

"Stand her up, and put her on the hook." The girl said. The same guy who brought me in here picked me up, and stood me up. He walked me over to the hooks. He brought them down, and started putting them around my neck. The blurriness was wearing off, and I recognized who my torturers were.

Lucy and Charlie.

The hook starting getting tighter around my neck...

I screamed, and sat up in bed crying.

My mom came running, and turned on the light.

"Spencer darling? Are you okay?" she said. I shook my head and continued crying. She came over to my bed.

"They tortured me..." I whimpered as she sat on my bed and held me.

"Who?" she asked confused, I let out another loud sob.

"Lucy and Charlie." I cried.

my mum cooed me, "shhhh, darling, it was nothing but a bad dream."

I nodded, but I still continued to sobbing, as my mum continued to hold me, and she dared to not let go.

the next day at school, I got there early so I could talk to Mrs. Palin.

I walked into her room, she was sitting at her desk, sorting through papers, I walked over to her.

"Mrs. Palin?" I said, she jumped, then starting laughing.

"Oh darling! You startled me!" she said, I laughed.

"Sorry." I told her and sat down. "I need to talk to you about something."

"What is it dear?"

"Well you know Lucy Jones? it's hard to miss her. Well she's dating Charlie, and ever since then, Charlie's shut me out of his life. I was upset about something they did, and I was mad at him. but I got over it, and tried to talk to him, but he wouldn't listen. The other day I wanted to talk to him, and he acted like he never even knew me. he's my best friend, and I love him. I can't bear to lost him to somebody like her, she's manipulative, and rude, and she makes up things, not to mention she hates me. I just don't know what to do, about anything." I said.

Mrs. Palin though about it for a moment. "that's tough. I'm sorry he hasn't been treating you kindly. well both of them it seems. what can I do to help?"

"I have a plan. I need to expose Lucy for what she's done. to me, and to the other people she's like this too." I said, and filled her in on the plan.

It was the end of a long school day. I was walking to my locker when Lucy stopped me in my tracks.

"Hey Splinter," I rolled my eyes. "i heard about your mums new clothing line, and I want you to tell her it sucks, and that nobody wants to wear clothing like you. your wardrobe is so ugly. it makes you look like a guy from old fashion times." she spat at me.

"Lucy? I don't care. my moms spent more time on that clothing line than you can even imagine. don't ever bitch about my mother again." I said to her.

"oh little Spencer, your just angry that I took Charlie from you. well I'm glad. he talks about all the stupid things you do, and how annoying and needy you've been for the past 16 years of his life. not to mention that he always has to fix your problems. he's happy he doesn't have to put up with someone like you anymore." Lucy said, I shook my head.

"that's not true. you don't even know him, or me. your just a jealous brat." I told her, and she laughed.

"Well I least I have Charlie" she spat.

I just shook my head and walked away.
