Great... First day of senior year... Still no boyfriend... Still being bullied ... Still no friends... We'll except Ethan of course... You thought to yourself as you got up out of bed. You walk towards your bathroom. You look in the mirror and think to yourself, Why. Why do I even have to go to school. I already know everything I need tomorrow know. School is torture for me anyways... Grayson always picking on me, calling me names, helping his friends pull pranks on me... This isn't fair. I didn't do anything to deserve this horrible life. You washed your face & plugged your straightener in. You went over to your closet & picked out a nice outfit even though it didn't really matter what you looked like, people were still going to make fun of you. You picked out a pair of dark-washed jeans, a dark grey baggy t-shirt & a purple & blue flannel to tie around your waist. You also put on a pair of black converse. You went back into the bathroom to straighten your hair. You knew people didn't care about your appearance so you just put on some mascara & some chapstick. You grabbed your school bag & ran downstairs into your kitchen. Your brothers Jack & Jake were already here along with your mom & dad who were making breakfast.

"Hey sis!" Jake said.

He was a year older than you. He was starting collage next week & was trying to spend as much time with you as possible. He was the only other person besides Ethan who knew about Grayson. He was always by your side & always helped you when you were at your lowest points.

"Hi jake. Hi Jack. Are you ready for your first day as a junior? It will probably be a lot more fun than mine was." If you couldn't already tell, Jack was a year younger than you & wasn't really a nice brother to have. He was a pretty popular kid. He had a lot of senior friends, including Grayson in fact, they were best friends. Jack was your brother & all but, he was involved in a lot of the bullying & teasing going on in your life.

"Yes! I'm super excited unlike you."

"Be nice!" Our mom said to Jack.

"So do you guys want a ride to school?" Jake offered.

"Nah I'm meeting Grayson at the bus stop." Jack said.

"Okay, how about you?" Jake said while looking at you.

"Sure. It's better than walking." You say.

"Okay kids, everyone eat up! You need to leave for school in about 7 minutes."

Everyone ate their food really fast but you just picked at your food. Saw Grayson walk by the house, Ethan followed. Oh yeah, did I mention that you guys were neighbors. Well Ethan saw you through your front windows & waved to you. You motioned you hand towards you signaling him to come inside. He walked into your house while Jack sprinted outside to Grayson.

"Hey Willow!" He says bringing you into a big hug.

"Hi Ethan, I've missed you." You say into his shoulder.

"I've missed you too! So are you taking the bus because if you are we are going to miss it."

"No Jake is taking me, you are coming too"

"Alright, well we better go." Ethan grabs your hand & pulls you outside to Jakes car. Jake runs out of the house with his keys & unlocks the doors. You & Ethan both sit in the back so you can talk.

"So have you done it at all during the summer?" Ethan asked while rubbing your scars.

"Nope, not at all. But I think it's because I stayed clear of Grayson all summer."

"That's great! I'm so proud of you! But have you been eating?" He asks.

"Well mostly, sometimes I skipped a meal but I tried as hard as I could." You say putting your head down. Ethan takes his finger & puts it under your chin. He picks your head up & looks you dead in the eyes & says, "don't put yourself down, Willow. I'm so so proud of you. I know you are trying your hardest & I know you don't deserve anything that happens to you but you just need to have confidence in yourself. If he says anything to you just walk by him with your head held high & don't let him ruin your day." Ethan said giving you a small smile.

"Okay, I'll try. I promise."

Jake pulled into the school & stopped right at the front doors. Before you got out of the car he turned around & said, "Willow don't let him get to you. I know you can do it. I know you can stand up for yourself. He is a jerk & you don't need to listen to any of his crap. Have a great day little sis!"

"Thanks Jake." You say while getting out of the car. Ethan got out & stood right by your side. Then you saw him. He was getting off the bus. He spotted you & started walking towards you. Ethan grabbed your hand reassuring you. You both walked into the school trying to get away from Grayson but he started running with Jack & their friend Ryan  trailing along. They caught up to you both. Grayson noticed that you were holding hands & started to laugh.

"Oohhhhh so this is a thing now... My brother & this slut. Wow I'm so embarrassed Ethan, you could do SOOOOOO much better."

***Ethan's POV

She couldn't take it anymore so she ran to the bathroom. I can't take this either... I turned my hand into a fist & yelled, "GRAYSON SHE DOES HAVE A FRIEND & SOMEONE DOES LIKE HER... & YOU KNOW THAT!!!! YOU KMOW THAT I HAVE LIKED WILLOW FOR YEARS NOW!!! I CANT STAND THE WAY YOU TREAT HER! I KNOW YOU GRAYSON, I KNOW EVERYTHING!" I WAS SO MAD I NEEDED TO RELEASE MY ANGER.

***Grayson's POV

WHY DO I DO THIS TO HER... I DONT KNOW  WHY I STARTED BULLYING HER... I...I L- "...I KNOW EVERYTHING!" I was takes out of my thoughts when I heard those words. Then all of a sudden I ended up on the cold, hard floors of the crowded hallways. A sharp pain in my jaw...that little twerp just punched me...

***Ethan's POV

THAT FELT GREAT!!! I've wanted to do that for so long!!! He deserves that. I looked at his weak body and laugh then I ran through the hall to find y/n. I NEED to make sure she isn't hurting herself.

***Your POV
I was sitting on a toilet in the girls bathroom. I thought about it, but I didn't even have anything sharp so there was no point in even trying so I just sat there & cried. I heard the door open, someone was rushing in. I looked under the stall. Ethan? I thought to myself.
"Y/n, are you in here?" It was definitely Ethan. I opened the door immediately, not caring if I looked like a total wreck. I ran into Ethan's arms. He hugged me & rubbed my back.

"It's okay to cry, Willow." He said while squeezing me tighter.

"Thank you Ethan, for everything... I love you."

***Ethan's POV

"Thank you Ethan, for everything... I love you." My eyes widened I was probably as red as a tomato. I pulled away & looked into her beautiful eyes & said, "I love you too, Willow."
