I'm happy. Niki brings my mood up whenever I'm around him and I don't know why or how. It's unexpected but I appreciate it. But when he's not around... I tend to find things about him that make me question his genuinity.

Well, there's nothing genuine about us in the first place since we're practically fake dating but after seeing him with whoever that girl was the other day, I guess it made me more cautious. I'm a lot less mad now than I was before. I guess it was just a one time thing or something I misunderstood perhaps?

That Slytherin girl could've been lying to her friends maybe, claiming that Niki invited her when he could've just suggested that she came.

"AGH!" I suddenly fall to the ground after feeling someone forcefully push me from behind as I'm walking back to the Ravenclaw chambers after my study session with Niki.

I attempt to sit up, and look at my grazed knees before looking up to see the criminal who pushed me down.

Huh?

"Get up, Ravenclaw." The girl spits, the very same one who I saw giggling with her friends after Niki apparently invited her to the party.

I keep a brave face as I pick up my bag off of the floor, and stand up straight, taking a step back from the intimidating girl and also her friends who I only just realised are present too, two of them stood behind her. All Slytherins.

I keep my mouth shut, and watch a smirk form on her face.

"Nishimura's girlfriend, huh?" She states and I remain silent. "Shocker."

I look at her confused but she notices my puzzled expression.

"You don't seem his type, bitch." She curses suddenly and my eyes widen. "Why would he ever get with you?"

We're not actually together.

"Speak up!" She shouts and I stumble back, startled as the girls laugh at me.

I swear I feel tears start to form in my eyes.

"I-I don't know." I reply, not having a single clue what to say to these girls, who keep taking steps closer and closer to me until I'm backed into the stonewall in the empty corridor.

"See, even she doesn't know." One of her friends chuckles.

"You see, Ravenclaw." She towers over me, smacking the gum in her mouth excessively. "Nishimura doesn't actually have feelings towards you, you hear me? You see, he's been after me for a while now and you?" She giggles menacingly. "You're just a little toy that he can throw away in seconds."

Flatline. I swear I'm dead.

The three of them begin to walk away, one of them getting the last word in by saying, "God, she's such an ugly bitch. He must be using her for something."

"Probably sex. I know what Niki is like." The main girl giggles, their voices fading into the distance as they turn the corner, leaving me standing there with tears now starting to flood down my cheeks.

I slide down the wall, falling to the ground before I continue to cry my eyes out.

What. The actual. F-

***

Fourteen days. Fourteen days and my life has taken a turn for the worst.

My body? Bruised.

My mood? What even is happiness?

Niki? Haven't seen him in a while.

Every single day since the moment those girls - Daphne, Phoebe and Sarah approached me, they haven't stopped. It's been constant torture.

Whenever they'd find me alone, I'd be pushed to the ground and talked at. They wouldn't hit or scream at me after this, they'd just say foul and cruel words that I promised myself I wouldn't let get to my head... but it's really messed with my mind.
