Cory's POV
All week Chad has been avoiding and ignoring me. It was Thursday and ever since I said what I said in the hallway, he's looked pained and it broke my heart. I wanted to comfort him, but I know this was all because I'm a dumbass and I hurt him.
I walked down the hall to my last class when I heard grunting and moaning coming from the janitor's closet. I tried ignoring it, thinking a couple of teenagers were making out when I heard a familiar voice. I slowly crept over to the door and carefully turned the knob and opened the door. I switched on the lights and gasped, widening my eyes.
"Chad? Patty?!" I exclaimed.
They looked at me with wide eyes. I can't believe this! I ran out before Chad could say something. I ran outside the front door of the school and kept running till I found myself at a pond outside of the town. I dropped to my knees and began to sob. My heart ached and I could feel cracking with each breath I took.
Why were they making out? I thought Chad loved me. Why was he hurting me like this? Maybe he was playing me this whole time. Maybe him and Patty were together and were just playing me.
I don't know how long I sat on the grass or how much I cried, but pretty soon I was staring at the pond with an expressionless face. Too numb to think or feel anything. My phone was ringing and buzzing nonstop, but I ignored it and just sat there in the darkness.
After another hour, I finally picked myself up off the ground and made my way home. Once I walked in my front door, my mom crushed me in a huge hug.
"Cory! Where the hell were you?! I was worried sick! I kept calling and cal-" she stopped talking when she noticed the expression on my face.
Emotionless.
"Cory, baby. What's wrong?" She looked at me in concern. I said nothing and walked past her, too afraid to open my mouth or I might cry again. Luckily, she let me be, but no doubt there will be questions in the morning.
I just wanted this day to be over. I got to my room and didn't even bother to change. I just laid down on my bed and cried for a few more hours till I cried myself to sleep.

The next morning I purposely stayed in bed, dreading to go to school to see him. After 15 minutes, I got up and changed into a hoodie and jeans and walked downstairs. Luckily my parents had already gone to work, so I dodged the questions for now. I didn't bother grabbing something to eat and decided to walk to school.
As I was walking, I heard a car drive up behind me. I slowly turned around and someone got out.
"Well, well, well, look who decided to walk to school." Jordan Hilburn smirked and I backed up a bit. He got closer and I kept backing up till I hit a fence in someone's yard.
He got in my face, "It's been a while since I've done this, but-" before I could react, he punched my stomach hard. I fell to the ground in pain and he picked me up by my shirt and punched my face, this time he let me fall to the ground. I held my face and he began kicking my stomach and sides.
I whimpered and cried out in pain. "P-please stop!" I cried, but he didn't stop till he got a few more kicks in. He cackled as he walked away and I laid there, my eye slowly closing from the blow and I could feel it getting swollen as it throbbed in pain. My body ached, but I forced myself up and limped to school. I got to class 20 minutes late and everyone, including the teacher, stared at me as I walked to my seat.
Chad wasn't in class and I was thankful, that way he wouldn't see me and I wouldn't have to see his disgusting face. People stared at me all day and some would laugh and others would purposely push me into lockers and say that they didn't mean to. I don't know what I did to deserve this...
Maybe it's punishment for hurting Chad? But he hurt me. My mind was swarming and I felt dizzy. I had to get out of here. I ran past people, pushing them out of the way and ran outside. I was crying and kept running. I ran off the side walk and I heard someone scream. I turned towards the noise to see someone pointing behind me. I turned confused and came face to face with the bus before everything went black.
