FOREVER

Chapter 9: Lick My Shoes

"Stay away from her before I chop off your tiny little pencil-dicks!" Her voice was as cold as ice. Freezing the whole classroom within seconds.

I pushed myself away from the table and ran towards Sam. Sam quickly glanced over at me as she silently closed and locked the door behind her. I visibly tensed at the click of the door and Sam's brows furrowed further.

She held me behind her before glaring at the other three. We were outnumbered and if she thought that I would be of any help during a fight except attempting a few punches or kicks she would be terribly disappointed.

Hellfire! I should've paid more attention when Brook tried to teach me some self-defence last summer.

"Hey Prez! I know what it looks like, but you've got it all wrong. We were not forcing her or anything. She was willing to fuck Dave and was literally begging and humping on the table before you walked in. So...umm... it's just a misunderstanding. Hahaha" Oh my God! The audacity of this bitch!

Sam turned around to look at my shaking self. Did she really think what Lana said to be true? Was she disappointed in me?

"That's not true..." I whispered pathetically. My eyes were dry and tears no longer fell from my eyes, but they were red and puffy. I remembered my unbuttoned shirt and quickly buttoned them up. I also pulled down my skirt feeling strangely exposed.

Sam's eyes narrowed further as she took notice of the little changes and gritted her teeth. "You know what? Fine I'll let it go. Afterall Lana you're the Chief's daughter. We can't afford any blackmarks on your final year, right?"

My ears surely must be deceiving me or I might have hit my head somewhere. There's no other possible explanation as to why Sam would side with Lana.

Sam had always fought for justice and that was one of the many qualities that I liked in her. But now... Did she really think that I was a hoe?

I could never live with knowing that she was disappointed in me. I could never.

Lana face split into a wide grin which later turned into a full-on smirk. "Of course! I knew Prez would be reasonable. Just so you kno-"

"But I'll let it slide only if you lick my shoes clean." Lana's words were slashed away by Sam.

I let out a breath which I didn't know I was holding. "Hon' I know this might be a little overwhelming for you, so what you gotta do is get out of this room and wait for me at our usual place, okay? Call me if you need me. I'll handle this and come to you soon, 'kay?" I nodded and hugged her tight.

"I need words babygirl." I gulped as she whispered those words in my ears.

"I-I'll wait for you. Don't get hurt Sam. I won't be able to bear that sort of pain." I pulled on her school tie and pecked her lips, unlocking and dashing out the door at the same time.

I went to my classroom to grab my phone before heading towards the rooftop. I could ony last for a few minutes as anxiety got the best out of me. I felt guilty, lonely and scared.

Were they bullying Sam right now or would Sam be able to handle the matter as she had told me? I was tired and completely drained of energy though it was only afternoon.

Regina. Should I call her? She would just tease me like always, right? What's the use of calling her.

Ring...Ring...Ring...

"Sup pumpkin? Are you calling because you wanted to say that I was better than her? Sure I know that." I could imagine her grinning from one ear to the other. Without me realising, I was already sobbing into the phone.

"Abigail, what's wrong sweetheart?! Talk to me" she pleaded through the phone. I had never heard her this worried in the entire time that I've known her. This was a first.

"Baby stop crying, it pains my heart. Just take a deep breath and relax. Everything's gonna be alright. Now tell me what's going on."

She listened silently as I poured my mind out. She waited a few more beats to let me calm down. "Where the hell did you say Samantha was?" Oh she was angry. And an angry Regina was not to be messed with.

"I-In a classroom" I mummbled back. "You've got to be a little more specific sweetheart. Which one?" I could hear shuffling from the other end of the phone. As soon as I said the classroom number the line went dead.

I don't know how much time passed by before both Regina and Samantha came up to the rooftop panting.

They were both panting as if they had run a marathon and both of them sported bruises from who knows what.

They came running to me as they swooped me up into a tight hug. "I-I c-can't b-b-breath!" I shakily managed to pull out of their soon loosened holds.

"You okay babygirl? I knew something was off since you took a lot of time in the washroom. But I didn't expect that itchy-witchy-bitch to actually do something so horrendous!"

"Were you hurt somewhere sweetheart? Let's head back home. I'll talk with the management or whoever the fucking which I should talk to in order to get you a leave and then we can head home soon. Does that sound good?"

Tears rolled down my eyes at their concern. Their hands immediately went up to wipe them away.

"No can do Regi. You just head home with her straight away. I'll deal with the school shit and catch up with you guys soon."

I look down at Samantha's shoes to see that it was squeaky clean. "I made them lick my shoes. And then later when the shoes were perfectly shining I notified the teachers with the spare phone that I always carry with me. They were really pissed. Almost had my face smashed when Regina came in." She smirked at my shocked face.

I closed my mouth before kissing her. Yeah yeah not just a peck but a full on make-out session. And that too right in front of the devil itself.

"Hey move aside. That's enough for you, it's my turn now. Can I get a kiss too sweetheart?" My chin was grabbed roughly by Regina, not waiting for my reply. But the kiss was really gentle.

There was no lust and only love. And she didn't have to say it out loud for me to get that through to my head. Neither of them had to.

I knew it with my heart. I knew that I could trust them.

Trust them with my whole life.
