Chapter Three

Mitch's Perspective

After tripping her to the ground the guys and Laura laugh but I let out a few fake snickers to keep everybody satisfied.

The girl turned around with her eyes staring at her best friend laughing along with the guys. Even I was confused as to why she was with us this morning but it's clear what had happened between the two. Especially because of the difference between their school status.

One that's bullied by me, and one that's not.

Her soul looked broken and for once I could feel my stomach drop at the amount of sadness which was projected on her face.

For some reason, I wanted to comfort her.
No, I just don't want her to be alone. Why would I comfort her? What the hell am I thinking.

If I did that, I could be on the floor like her. And I definitely don't have the strength to give myself up like that.

For some reason, after looking at her friend, her eyes shifted in my direction and just stared at my face.

She was making me feel bad. And I hate that.

Suddenly, I feel more uncomfortable than I did before.

It's time to walk away and head to class.

Jerome's perspective

It's stupid to say that we didn't have a choice, but something that stops us from leaving. The pressure of going against out best friends.

So we keep on bullying, even to the people who we have become attracted to.

Mitch likes her, and I feel bad that he must hurt her aswell as me. Even I like someone but because of her ties to this one girl, I can't even think about being kind to her and showing my interest.

It's all is so messed up and my brain hurts even just thinking about it. These train of thoughts are interrupted as Mitch trails away to class. But someone says something.

Chelsea's perspective

"I'm absolutely mental to like someone who just trips me up." I decided.

Everyone turns to look at me and I feel confused, until I notice that. i had said everything out loud.

Mitch is the last one to turn, looking at me with wide eyes. Before holding a stern look of anger which I expected. I start to feel a bit panicky.

The others looked at me like nothing had happened and laughed, knowing full well nothing could ever happen.

"Keep dreaming." One said, though I was too lost in what had happened to figure out who.

Mitch once again turns to leave, this time never looking back in my direction. Everyone slowly follows but Preston quickly picks up my bag and boots it across the wall before leaving aswell.

I don't have time to think about what happened. I need to get to science.

Its not fun, but at least Tabby will be there.
Then again, so will Jerome.

I do wonder what they would do if they found out what happened at home. I think they'd make things worse for me. I'll continue to keep quiet.
