A prom with my Bully [On Hold]

Chapter 20 - "Flashback"

Sorry for I wasn't able to update for a long time! I'm really sorry. Now, enough talking and here's the story.

Chapter 20

Danielle's POV

"Ew! Is that ketchup on your fries?!" I shrieked as I saw Jenna place that disgusting red tomato thing on her fries. I seriously hate ketchup. It's just so weird. Like ew weird.

"Yup" She replied with her mouth full of fries and that icky red thing. Oh, the poor fries; covered with that disgusting thing.

"Ew. What is with ketchup that the 4 of you, you guys have it on your tray. You even dip your fries in them! Poor fries!" I exclaimed with disgust.

The five of us; Johnny, Jenna, Lara, Bea and I were eating happily in McDonald's on this fine Saturday afternoon. Seating happily, excluding the fact that there are a lot of ketchup in front of me and beside me.

"Why do you hate ketchup so much?" Johnny asked as he sat beside me doing nothing but breathing. That guy eats like a pig and finishes them so easily like lightning.

"What's wrong with you woman?! First, you don't like chocolate syrup on your sundae, then you don't like ketchup on your fries?" Bea retorted. Don't they simply understand the fact that I don't like ketchup, and the taste of Chocolate syrup on my sundae?!

"Well, I don't like ketchup on my fries because I don't like ketchup on anything! Then I don't like chocolate syrup on my sundae because it tastes weird." I explained myself. Hopefully, they understand my choice of food.

"You're so weird." Jenna said from across the table.

"She's just acting like that because of the incident last week." Lara mentioned.

Why did she even remind me of the incident last week? It just made me think of that stupid brown haired, deep brown eyes jerk.

"Seriously? How could you simple bring up that topic?" Johnny noticed my uneasiness as he sat there beside me, looking at me with his eyes asking me if I'm okay. I smiled at him to reassure him that I'm feeling well.

"Oops, sorry." Lara apologized softly.

"Nah, it's okay." I replied.

A few minutes later they were talking about everything and nothing as I sat there in silence replaying the events that happened last week.

I kept on running away. Running towards a direction I didn't even know. I started to speed up, unfortunately I failed. It was hard to run when your body is not so physically strong and especially when you're thinking of deep thoughts that hurt so much. As I wiped the tears that escaped my eyes which made my vision blurry, I realized the all so familiar dirty road. The dirty road that lead me to the place that comforted me whenever I felt alone, the place that kept me safe, and the place where I think a lot when I have a lot of problems. My little paradise. As I saw the huge Sycamore tree with its long thick branches, I felt a slight of happiness. I sat by the lake and placed my hands on my face. As tears started to flow on my face, so did the rain started to pour. Great. Such a wonderful weather for me to cry. Minutes have passed until I heard the sound of leaves, crunching under the footsteps of something out there. It can be a bear, or a lion to eat me up. Or I'm just being over-dramatic. Just as I was hoping it was something to eat me up, I saw a being that is worse than a beast. Alex. He stood there looking at me with those angel eyes, well that was what I thought. I looked up at him as I was still sitting on the now wet ground. I can't believe that I liked this horrible being. So much stupidity Danielle!

"Danielle, I know you're mad at me. But that's not what I meant." He said as he tried to explain those horrible words that came out of his filthy mouth earlier.
