The next day I went to school with a cool head and a fresh mind because taking a day off of school yesterday was relaxing and talking to someone without wondering about my problems were therapy.  I get out of my car and head to the school entrance and after a very long time I realize that the entrance has changed, gone were the tall and hard hickory door that actually didn't match the school's exterior replaced with dark rich and a humongous mahogany door. I assume that it's been quite a while since the new door has moved in.

Walking to the class my head hits a hard chest and I stay still because I don't want it to be those people who I think it is. I hear a grunt and laughter from behind, not lucky at all. I move back and see that it was Sean who I had bumped into and Emily and the rest behind him. and as long as I can remember they were never a part of my economics class. So I for sure know that this isn't going to go well.

I don't see Zane with them but I guess it's better he isn't here. I think.

when I look towards Emily, her smile is nothing but vicious and her eyes filled with hate and disgust, and till date I have no idea why she has this much hatred towards me. The others beside her are all looking as if they are waiting for Emily to unleash their straps and let them go wild. 

"well, hello little Elora, how does it feel to be alone always" the guy I bumped into snarls. And I have no idea why any of them are so interested in my life and why they tend to make my life a horrible mess. that I will never know.

"I'm sorry but I have to go to class" I say without looking at them because  I'm just too much of a coward to say anything, but it's my smart instincts telling me to move away from them before something really bad happens.

So I start walking past them and right before I turn to head to the classroom, a big hand grabs my arms, too tight it's going to form a bruise, and slams me towards the wall. I try my best to make my back make contact first with the wall instead of my head, but it still hurts.

I look at them and wonder what is wrong? Because I remember not having to talk to anyone for at least 2 weeks, they didn't hurt me and I didn't dare go near them. But today seems like a different day.

"Just because Zane said to not hurt you doesn't mean we won't" a guy next to Emily speaks, someone who I've seen a lot, don't know his name, especially when they try to abuse me. I've seen him,yeah and he doesn't look like good news. "Especially not when he isn't even at school or at home" So Zane isn't in the city, he's not here, he gave them orders not to hurt me, but he is not here, and I think I want him at school more than anything right now. I never even thought I would say much rather think of Zane being someone who would indirectly protect me but the tables have turned.

"did you guys bring what I said ?" Sean looks at his sides to make sure they all nod. He looks as if he is trying to be the leader of all this, which is Zane's place actually. He comes closer to me and bends a little to match my height then pats my head, with glimmer of mischeive  in his eyes shown without any guilt he smirks " fun time Elora"

Suddenly I'm being dragged to an old class on the other side of the school, mainly wing 4, " w-wait I didn't even do anything, I-I why are you taking me here"

"Just because you were off the hook for some days dont mean that you are free" throwing me into the pile of desk and chairs, Emily spits words that are full of jealous intent. "You think Zane cares for you? is that why he stopped us?" she looks around at the other guys and smirks "Well, he pities you, he cares that I will do something wrong because of you" she comes closer and bends down, as I've fallen down, she grabs my chin with her finger, nails digging into my skin which earns a yelp from me.

She scans my face, disgust clearly visible, she forms a frown but then smiles, not good. Quickly  yanks my face away from her hands and stands up. When I look above I can see that the third guy is busy making a video, so I hide myself. I try my best to look down and hope that they go away.
