Alex's P.O.V

"Why weren't you in maths?" Greg asked. It was lunch and we were all sat outside on a table, I knew Greg was going to ask this question, I tried to come up with a reason, however I still haven't came up with one.

"You weren't in your maths class?" Tay asked.

"No.." I mumbled quietly.

"Why are you skipping classes? Did someone put you in a locker again? Is there somebody in your class teasing you? Did someone hurt you? I'll break their neck if somebody-" Tay rambled on and I ignored her and rested my head in the table. I was still in shock about the whole Jack thing. I didn't know what to believe. Did he actually care about me? Or is this just a big prank?

"Alexis, are you listening to me?" Tay asked.

"No, not really." I yawned. Tay sighed and pulled out her phone. Oh look, the silent treatment!

"Whatever the reason was, I hope you're okay." Greg said reassuringly. It was kinda weird having him here, it's normally just me and Tay, but he's a nice enough person.

The bell rang, signalling the end of lunch. Not saying a word, Tay grabbed her bag and stormed off, like a bad tempered toddler. Greg and I shared the same confused expression. Why was she acting like this? I haven't done anything!

Me and Greg walked back into the building. He had Geography and I had music, which were fairly close to each other.

"You gonna be okay?" Greg asked. I nodded.

When I entered the class, all eyes were on me.

"Mr. Gaskarth, what on earth are you wearing?" Mr. Shaddix asked. I heard slight laughter from a few people.

"My clothes..." I mumbled.

"Are you aware that they are woman's clothes, Mr. Gaskarth?" He asked again in a teasing tone. This hurt, even my fucking teachers were making fun of me! My teachers in my classes before didn't even care, but suddenly Mr. Shaddix comes along and shatters my confidence.

"Yes, I'm pretty aware." I said.

"Then why are you wearing them?" The prick said again.

"Because I'm a girl." I said, with a sudden confidence boost. Another few laughs.

"No you're not, Mr. Gaskarth. Now sit down, you're late." He ordered and pointed at my usual spot.

"I will but firstly sir, I identify as a female so I'd appreciate it if you respected that." I said. Mr. Shaddix laughed and shook his head while looking down at the paper in his hands. "What?" I questioned.

"Well, Mr. Gaskarth," he started. "This right here." He said pointing at my clothing. "Is just a phase, you'll get over it. Anyway please sit down you're wasting my time." He scoffed. So, now my teachers are bulling me too? That's just delightful.

"You're wasting my time by being a stupid prick." I said. Half of the class gasped and the other half laughed. Mr. Shaddix looked more than pissed off. He looked like he wanted to murder me.

"Mr. Gaskarth, get to the principles office right now!" Mr. Shaddix shouted, his face now resembled a tomato. I stormed out of the class and I slammed the door behind me. I'm definitely switching classes, despite the fact that I wanted a career in music, but no way am I putting up with that transphobic ass hole.
