Kendall Arend's POV
It's been a week since the flashback, yet I'm still remember his words over and over. I'm recently sitting inside the girls changing room, trying to think of an excuse to not go swimming.
Today our gym teacher Miss Hadley planned to do laps in our school pool. Our school has required to wear a certain type of togs. Somehow the slutty girls in our school, convinced our principal to change the gym uniform for girls, including school togs.
What could I say? That I've got a bad stomach ache? Oooooh got it. I'll say I've got my period.
I walk out of the girls changing room, approaching Miss Hadley who has a clipboard in her hands.
"Miss Hadley, I don't think I can go swimming today. I just started my period yesterday and I'm getting my cramps." I whimper in pain, as I clutch my stomach.
"Arend! Go back to the changing rooms and change right now! You used that excuse two weeks ago." Her face scrunched up in anger for interrupting her and her clipboard.
"But it's rushing like the Niagara Fall" I whisper in her ear, just so noone could hear that.
Miss Hadley pointed her bony finger towards the girls changing rooms, not believing a word I just said to her.
"Stupid, stupid, stupid" I kept muttering under my breath, as I walk to the changing rooms.
How dumb can I get? How did I forget I already used that excuse? Now she's going to think whenever I'm on my period that I'm faking.
I open up my gym locker to pull out an excuse of what's called "togs", The top was a simple bikini top, like a juniors crop. You know the when you wear, when you are growing boobs. But they're not mature yet, so you're stuck to wear those crops. That was way out of topic but nevermind. The bottoms make me want to hurl my breakfast out. It barely covered your front and was like a thong at the back.
You might as well be naked.
I looked at my bruised form in the big mirror and see marks of Hayden's hits. I have to jump straight into the pool, so that no one will notice.
Everyone was already outside by the time I got fully changed, they were swimming laps. I splash into a lane quickly, relief that no one noticed my bruises.

After we all finished swimming laps, Miss Hadley let us muck around in the pool for ten minutes. I have my back against the corner of the pool, looking at people in their groups laughing and talking. I wish I had friends who were like that, or any friends in general.
Next thing I know I'm flailing my arms underwater as a hand is securely wrapped around my left ankle. I scream, but did not succeed to be heard. Few seconds later the grip around my ankle disappears, I swim fast to the top of the surface. But just before I pop out, two hands push me to stay underwater. I wiggle vigorously underwater, desperate for some air. I take a huge gasp underwater, water filling my chest.
I didn't realise the hands had disappeared ages ago to let me resurface. Sadly it was too late, my eyelids slowly droop, my body not shaking anymore. The last thing I remember was hearing a splash and two hands carrying me bridal style to the top of the water. Then I let myself fall into a deep slumber.

Bruhhh,
Okay so I know I hadn't updated the book like since a month ago, only because I completely forgot about it. I apologize(actually no I don't).
Thanks for all the views and votes<3
I really like it when people comment and give feedback about my book so thanks.
Also keep in mind that I did not in any way re-craft or edit this.
Until next time my friend,
