Hailey's POV
***Friday***
I sped off down the hallway to my first class ignoring the taunts from the other students. But it gets to a point where you can't help but hear them,"Fake, Liar", "Irish", that's a new one. And I dont get why its supposed to be an insult. But they continue taunting me. I breathe in a shaky breath. I shut my eyes. And think. Why? Why are they so mean? Do they like making a person feel like they're worthless, or stupid or fake. I wish they would just leave me alone.I feel a tap on my shoulder and swish around to the direction the tap came from. "Leave me alone!", I spat without even thinking. A pair of green eyes stared back at me filled with hurt and confusion. My expression softened when he turned and rushed away. "Wait", I said a bit too late. I walked in the direction he went. The bell rang, and I didn't bother to go to my class. I don't care, all I care about is finding Michael, which is my only friend.
"Michael?", I called. I heard footsteps behind me and turned around. I stumbled on my feet as a pair of arms pulled me in to a dark closet. I shook around frantically, struggling to get out. The pair of arms held me tight and waited until I gave up. I couldn't get out. Im in a dark closet with someone I don't know, who was going to do who knows what. A tear left my eye. Suddenly a light blinded me. Once I recovered my vision I was startled to see Michael's face so close to mine. I let out a breath."Sorry, I didn't know it was you", I said feeling relieved. His expression changed and he remained quiet. I stared back at his eyes until he finally spoke:"Im sorry too, that I scared you, but this school does do hall checks you know".
His lips curved into a smile. "Are we still on for pizza after school?", he asked. I sighed and laughed,"You and your obsession with pizza". Michael scrunched up his face clearly confused. "Is that a yes or a no...", he was clueless. "Of course", I said.
The door to the closet opened. I hadn't realized exactly how close we'd been until we both jumped looking at the face clearly filled with anger. "To the office, NOW", said the voice. Not again.
