Link's POV
While I was listening to the lecture,I began looking for my secret admirer once in a while,turning my head everywhere. My eyes settled on Rhett for a while,it looks like he was thinking of something,but why does he look tense? I shrugged and looked forward again,paying attention to the teacher.
My thoughts started wandering off again,thinking who would like someone like me..Really,there's nothing much to like about me. I'm boring to be with,I like miniature horse for some reason which I usually got laughed at when I was a kid,I'm lanky,I'm clumsy and many things that are just...*sigh* enough of that,I might end up singing my thoughts out.
But then again,someone actually liked me,and I don't know why this guy liked me. I really want to meet this guy,I might not know him but judging from the notes he's just a sweet guy,and I want to get to know him someday.
I was snapped out of my thoughts when my phone vibrated,looking in front if the coast is clear,I grabbed my phone and hid it under the desk,checking the message:
Lei: So,any luck on finding him??
I texted back quickly as possible
Link: No luck,can't find him at all
Lei: Aww man.. I have a plan,hear me out later in Math class
Link: Alright
As soon as I texted back,I put my phone back in my pocket and listened to the lecture. Before I knew it,the bell rang.I grabbed my bag and head towards the door,leaving the classroom.
*~At the hallways~*
Heading towards the lockers,I saw Lei standing there,her hands hidden inside her blue hoodie pockets,her back against her locker. I went to her and she looked at me,standing up straight and putting her hands out of the pocket. She stared at my bag suspiciously,and leaned in to grabbed something,and when she pulled back,I saw a red sticky note on her hand.
"I believe this is yours?" she said with a smirk as she handed me the note. I grabbed the note and started reading it:
'You're so adorable trying to look for me. But then again,like I said,you can't see me,but I can see you. So please,don't try and look for me. I'll just face you when I'm ready..'
"Aww,that's soo sweet~! So,are you giving up for now,Link?" she asked as she started walking towards the room. I did the same as I put the note in my bag.
"Yeah,I think I'll give up for now.Anyways,what is this plan of yours anyway?" I asked her. She snapped her fingers and looked at me.
"Gee~! Thanks for reminding me~! Anyways,the plan is,why don't you leave him a message too? You know,so that you could respond to him~!"
"Like,a mail of some sort?? But where do I put the note then?"
"Put it at your locker since that's where he left the first note,I'm sure he'll see it. Also,put your number there too."
"Why would I put my number?" I asked her,my face full of confusion.
"So that he won't have any difficulty to leave you messages and in this way,you can text him all you want and get to know him~! Isn't that what you wanted? "
I began thinking about her plan,she was right,I do want to get to know him,so maybe this wasn't a bad idea.
"Alright,I'll do it tomorrow then" I nodded at her and she smiled,clapping her hands as she did so.
*~*~*~*~*~*
*~After school~*
Lei and I walked away from the library,heading towards the hallway. As we were nearing towards the lockers,Lei stopped walking and snapped her fingers,indicating that she remembered something.
"Hey Link?" Lei tapped me at the shoulder,I stopped walking and looked at her and said what's wrong.
"I might not be going home with you for now,because I have to go and help the librarian."
"It's okay,you go on then. I'll head home by myself." I said,my voice masked with confidence when in truth I'm terrified because when she's not with me,the jocks will strike at me.Which reminds me,right after that whole 'stood up' incident,they stopped bullying me which is a bad sign because it's either they'll leave me alone or they'll plan on getting at me again once the coast is clear.The first option has a slim chance so the second one has a possibility,which will be worse..
"Are you sure?" she said with worry.I nodded and gripped my bag tighter.
"Alright,if you say so..be careful alright?" she said with worry,I nodded. She turned and walked towards the library,no longer seeing her form.
I walked towards the direction of my locker.The halls were too quiet since all of the students left already.Lei and I are usually the ones who stayed because we do our homework at the library. As I was about to open my locker,I felt a sudden pain at the back of my head.I groaned in pain and fell on the floor,my vision starting to darken.
*~*~*~*~*
I opened my eyes and find myself in a dark room.I can't figure out where I am because of the lack of light so I tried to move myself but deemed impossible because my hands are tied behind my back,my face felt naked because of the lack of glasses and my mouth being shut off because of the tape. I tried to stand up but as soon as I did that,I felt a sharp pain on my stomach,landing my back against the wall and sliding off.
"Hahaha! You're helpless now are you?? Where's that freaking Karate girl and that Giant to save you huh?" a voice said as he kicked my stomach again,my groan muffled by the tape. I looked up and started adjusting my eyes in the dark.I saw a silhouette of 3 people standing tall,and saw some wrecked desks and chairs around me.My eyes widened in shock as realization dawned on me.
The unused classroom.The jocks use this room as a torture room for nerds or someone they held a grudge on. The principal is quite aware of this room but he didn't know that this room was used by the jocks.The jocks are the only ones who can use this room because they can picklock it.
I struggled myself free but was kicked again at the stomach.I curled in pain as tears started to form in my eyes.
"Struggling is useless,you faggot.So don't even try to break free!"
My eyes widened once again.H-how did they know?! The last thing I wanted to hear was 'that' word.Maybe they figured it out? Maybe because of that incident? Or maybe they guessed?
My tears started flowing nonstop,trying not to sob even though it will end up muffled.
"Dude,why don't we just leave him here?" Another voice said.
"Yeah,we should get out of here." another one said as he opened the door,light peeking out from it.
"Just give me a second" the leader of the three said as he approached me once again,aiming his feet at my stomach and kicking me once again. I groaned in pain as I landed on the ground,curled up on my side as I squinted my eyes in pain. I heard the door being closed as I laid there,motionless.
I can taste blood in my mouth now.I can't escape,I don't know what to do. I'm so hopeless,I can't even defend myself.
I curled up into a ball as I laid there,doing nothing.
Somebody save me.... I thought as I fell unconscious.
