The voices in my head

Chapter 2

Hour earlier:

"God she's so weird"
"Who does she think she is?"
"Probably another freak"
I keep my head down as the rumours spread around me, tears burn in the back of my eyes but I don't let them fall. I won't give them another thing to bully me for.

I feel pain in my shoulder as my body crashes to the floor. "Watch it freak!"
Someone screams down at me,
And kicks all my books till they're scattered everywhere. I try to reach out for them, only for them to be stepped on an scattered more.

The bell rings signalling class, I curse under my breath as I stand up and look down to all my stuff on the ground.
As quickly as I can, I grab everything and run to my next class.

I walk in through the English door to see my teacher Miss Smith writing something on the board. " I see your late to class again Miss Grace, what excuse this time?" She says to me. I stammer over my words " I-I- was-"
" never mind, just don't do it again"
I nod my head and go to my seat in the back of the class.

Laughter and whispers fill the class room as they know what's happened.
I zoom out in class and get chased by my thoughts, until the bell rings.
I take my time heading out of class, I head straight to my locker and put any books I don't need in there.

I walk down the hall with my shoes squeaking against the tiles. The sound of the cafeteria getting closer by the second, my palms are getting sweaty, my body is shaking as my hands push against the door.

The bucket fell before I realised.
Paint splattering everywhere, I gasp as the bucket hits against my head. Laughter fills the room as people shout and point. I was hyperventilating, I couldn't breath, my eyesight was going blurry and my body was going numb.
There was only one thing that could be making me do this, I was having a panic attack.
