Lighting up the darkness

Chapter fourteen "Fuck off Emily"

I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock, I got up and went in the bathroom to make myself presentable. When I was done I opened the door and bumped into Ms. Thompson. 

“Oh sorry” I looked up, our faces were centimeters away, she smirked at my and I felt my heart beating faster. 

“Good morning.” 

“Good morning.” I said and felt heat rising to my face. 

“I think you need clothes for today, let’s go find you something” She turned around and I followed her in her room. She shuffled through her closet and pulled out a pair of light blue jeans, a white t-shirt, a white hoodie. and socks. “Here, I hope they are ok” 

“Thank you” I went in the guest room to change. I got dressed and looked at myself in the mirror. The hoodie and the t-shirt were a little big on me, but the jeans were fine. I looked good in this outfit.

I grabbed my bag and went in the living room. She walked in wearing a black pair of suit pants, with a white shirt tucked in and a black blazer on top and white converse shoes. She had styled her hair sideways. I stared at her with my lips slightly parted. She looked extremely hot and she smelled amazing. 

“You look great” 

“Thank you. Now let’s eat breakfast and get going” I followed her to the kitchen. “It’s avocado toast”

We ate and then we grabbed our stuff and went to her car. 

“If anyone causes you trouble today come and find me, okay?” I nodded “I mean it”

“Okay”

We got to school and walked inside, she went in the teacher’s office and I went to my locker. As I was walking through the hallway, students were looking at me and laughing. I rushed to my first class. As I was waiting for the teacher to come, a guy approached me. 

“Hey bozo” I ignored him “Want to go out with me?” I kept ignoring him “We can go to a soup kitchen, or a donation center” I was about to tell him to fuck off, when the teacher walked in . The guy went back to his desk and the lesson started. 

When the bell rang I went by my locker and rushed to the next class trying to avoid everyone. 

As the students started walking in, some of them greeted me by calling me bozo and clown. 

During lunch break I didn’t go to my locker at all, I went and sat outside. I was shivering , but at least I didn’t have to talk to anyone. 

I got changed for PE and thankfully the teacher was already there. We were practicing basketball and I knew it wasn’t going to end well. 

I was running side by side with a girl. 

“Give up bozo”

“Fuck off” I mumbled and tried to block her, but instead she pushed me with her body. I stumbled and fell on the floor. 

“Evans, are you ok?”

“Yes” I said getting up. I went back to playing. Towards the end of the class, I tried to shoot and a guy blocked my shot and caused me to fall. 

“The clown is trying to make us laugh today by falling” He said to his friend as they walked away. The PE teacher helped me up. 

“Go get ready for your next class” She smiled and patted my back. 

I changed and started walking to English. Of course Emily was waiting for me next to my locker. 

“So, do you like your new nickname?”
