I flushed the Toilet and came out to wash my hands when Gorge came to mind. What happened? Why isn't he in school? I took out my phone and dialled his number. It would be the first time since I got his number. The phone rang but I got no response. Then I texted. Something has to be going on with him, he may be sick. Suddenly some one barged in. I looked through the mirror and saw Cassandra and Martina. Martina looked distressed while Cassandra watched me with a deadly gaze. I Stood straight away from the sink and faced them. They didn't look like they wanted to use the restroom. Martian whispered something to Cassandra but Cassandra didn't seem to care. I returned my phone and went on to wash my hands after that, I wiggled my fingers to release water, feeling their gaze at my every move. I didn't have time for them. Just as I attempted to move. She stepped in front of me like she would throw a punch the next minute. ''What is it'' I asked, holding back my frustration
'' It is you isn't it?'' gaze locked to mine
'' Just so you know, I do not speak riddles, so you will have to ask clear questions'' she frowned at my words
'' You are responsible for all those videos aren't you?'' I raised an eyebrow in total loss'' I mean, it makes sense. You come to a school as a nobody and the only way to gain attention is to turn yourself into something special'' she spoke like a detective '' More like make people believe you are something special, Hard ass? The knight?'' Seriously, what's up with this lady, why wouldn't she let me have peace? I thought Logan already put an end to all this.
'' What makes you believe that I am the one'' I got curious about her theory.
'' You are the only one who could do it. When you came in everyone hated you, so you would have done it and besides, no one dares to defy Logan, but you?''
'' Cassandra, we should go'' Martina held her arm, almost Immediately Cassandra shoved it off
'' Let go of me...'' almost raising her voice '' I need to remind this bitch of her place'' Looking back at me '' You set this up from the day at that rooftop, You ruined everything since the day you stepped foot in this school and for fuck sake!!'' she screams '' Logan let his guard down, Logan kept going easy on you'' I get what is going on here, She hates the fact that Logan and I kissed. Jealousy in the air
'' Hey Cassandra" I called, " I told you from the beginning I had no interest in you guys so why the fuck will I post those videos''
''Ha!!'' she lets out in irritation ''You have no interest hh... if you really have no interest, why would Bianca be at your side.. Why would Logan suddenly...'' she hesitated and I saw hurt in her eyes. Wow, she is heartbroken'' Why would Logan suddenly want to be seen around with a nobody like you...''
'' I don't know'' I shrugged '' Maybe they got tired of you''
'' what'' anger flashed in those pained gaze
'' Cassandra, I honestly don't got time for this nonsense....''
'' Stop it!!!'' she screamed, cutting me off and taking Martina and me off guard I stood dumb founded '' Stop treating me like someone not worth listening to'' She used both hands to rob her hair back and forth like a crazy person '' You....you are the unworthy one, you are the one not worth attention, you are supposed to beg, kneel and beg'' panting as she spoke, she took a step forward ''You are just a.... you are just a fucking, poor nobody who should kneel and worship!!!'' she screams
'' Cassandra'' Martina scolded. I noticed she was already getting cheered out about Cassandra's behaviour as much as I was. '' Let get out of here'' about to hold her
'' Don't you fucking touch me!!''
'' Did you just... yell at me'' shocked
'' Yes, so fucking what'' She turns to Martina who carried a shocked disappointed reaction
'' I guess I have been too friendly'' With that Martina turned and left us
'' And you. You think you are all it now that Logan kissed you don't you''
'' Not really... I don't think anything'' I didn't know what I said but it made her explode and the next thing I knew, her hand landed on my face. Ok I didn't see that coming '' hh'' a small gasp escaped my lips
'' I said... stop treating me like a piece of shit and take me seriously!!!'' she yelled
'' If you act like one, you get treated like one''
'' what did you just say to me'' speechless
'' I think you should go for an ear wash, seems like it needs cleaning'' she exploded again, about to slap me and this time I was expecting it but it never came, because Cassandra's feet went off the ground and she landed flat on the toilet floor
'' Aaaa'' she cried in pain and Bianca stood above her, in front of me. When did she enter, I had no idea
'' You piece of shit'' Bianca snapped angrily with her eyes burning in rage. She bent to Cassandra's level, who was still struggling from the sudden fall. And grabbed her hair '' What have I told you about messing with what is mine'' Bianca began pulling her while Cassandra struggled. Never in my life will I believe that Bianca had that much strength. While I stood in shock and horror at the sight before me, I watched Bianca pull Cassandra along.
'' Let go of me'' Cassandra cried. Bianca opened the toilet door
'' I will send you to where shit goes'' What the fuck is she about to do
'' Please stop'' Cassandra struggled with Bianca's grip on her hair while Bianca pulled her to the toilet seater and began dipping her head inside the pit, Bianca turned on the flush, drowning Cassandra
'' Drink this you piece of shit'' she groans
'' Oh my God'' that was when I made a move, I hurried into the toilet, I had to force my way in '' Bianca stop it'' I held her hand but that didn't stop her, she kept dipping Cassandra's head while Cassandra struggled '' Bianca!!''
'' We treat shit, the way they are supposed to be treated'' I have never heard Bianca sound so dangerous Not sure it was still Bianca speaking as she didn't sound like the Bianca I know
'' Arrr'' Cassandra cried
'' Bianca!!!!'' I screamed at the top of my voice to call her out of wherever she had gone to, instantly, She froze. '' Bianca'' I called calmly this time as my left hand reached her shoulder. ''Bianca'' she slowly turned her head to face me and my heart skipped a beat, I swear her eyes were that of a killer. '' Bianca?'' I called, hoping she could hear me
'' She hurt you'' Bianca said '' When I warned her not to''
'' Bianca... I am fine'' I spoke as calmly as ever, scared she wouldn't listen '' she didn't hurt me I promise, I wouldn't let her''
'' I can see her fingerprinted on your cheek'' Bianca's gaze scanned my face and I smiled at the fact that she cared this much
'' Let her go Bianca'' we were taken by lone silence. The only thing that could be heard was Cassandra's little cry. Finally, Bianca released Cassandra and She didn't take a second before she ran out. Bianca made her way to the sink, placing both hands on the sink she took few deep breaths
'' Maria'' she called
'' hmm'' Bianca looked at me and I felt relief to see that she was back to normal, back to the young girl that became my friend at the basketball field '' Why do you always take bullshit like this''
'' Pardon?''
'' Why don't you fight back, I have seen you beat up two guys so why can't you do the same to those fuckers'' she frowned While I smiled. Even if I answered she wouldn't understand
'' You are talking about me, what about you? crossed my arm proudly '' I never knew my best friend had that much strength in her'' Bianca froze and I instantly grew concerned that something had happened'' what... what is it?''
'' I am your best friend?'' She spoke like an excited cute little girl
'' what?'' I tilt my head to the side, trying to process what I just heard. What did she think she was before? ' Seriously'' busting into laughter ''is that why you look so shocked... what did you think we were?'' I spoke in the middle of my laugh
'' Why are you laughing'' she faked a frown
