Little donuts,bloody arms & legs

Ana's POV

I walk into class with a small key chain the shape of a pair of doughnuts with two little eyes on top.

I passed this on the way home yesterday and thought she would absolutely love it because of the way she is.

her personality is so bubbly, so cute, and in some ways innocent and it never fails to sneak its way into every thought i have. a doughnut is just so perfect because everything about her is sweet. the way she is, the way she speaks, the way she writes,and even the way she taste when we kiss.

with that last comment in my head my face burned and a stupid grin grew plastered onto my sharp featured face.

Once I get to my desk i sit down and take out my phone but the room becomes silent all of a sudden.

I look up and see at least 30 pairs of eyes in my direction.I look out of the windows that line the wall of the classroom and the few people that are passing by look over into the classroom, directly.at.me. and once they snuck the glance over at me they put their heads together to whisper. what in the world is going on here?

"What?" I ask curtly and turn around to glare at every classmate individually. And the only response i got was heads bent down again and more whispering.
I unconsciously run my hands down my side to check if something about my school uniform is wrong, I even quickly run my hand near the back of my waistband to see if I hadn't tucked my shirt in wrong or at least maybe had my underwear out by accident.

I came up empty.

I let out a big sigh trying to calm down and let it go,and put the doughnuts key chain, that i have been clutching in my hand while I searched,into my skirt pocket.i decided to act like nothing is going on and went to get my stuff out for class.
I then reach into my desk to take out my book but then my hand touches a rough sheet of paper.

I pull it out and immediately feel my heart drop.

Whispers were being heard around the area. It felt like people were closing in

I stand out of my seat as quickly as possible and the chair bangs on the floor. The room again became dead silent.my hand started clenching the paper in my hand, making it into a tight paper ball.

"WHO IN THE LIVING HELL PULLED THIS SHIT!" I yell at everyone. One girl in the far corner back at least a few seats the left of mine was still whispering to her friend and in a matter of seconds I was on her. My fist clenching her shirt and i'm breathing in her face.

"What the hell! YOU KNOW ILL BEAT YOUR ASS SO WHY DID YOU DO IT! Do you have a fucking death wish?"

"I di-didn't do it. I-I-I swear" the girl said to me with tears in her eyes. So I guess it wasn't her. I let her go a little reluctantly and turn around just as Tai enters the room with clumsy steps.

Her shirt is half out of her skirt like the girl I just threatened shirt now was and her ponytail was messed up with a few of hairs sticking up. But what really got to me was her legs and arms.

They were blossoming bruises and her lower arms and knees had scrapes and cuts as if she was pushed into the pavement on a broken bottles of beer.

I dropped the paperball and went straight to her and took her out of the room after tossing her book bag on the nearest desk.

"What happened Tai? Are you ok? Do you need a hospital? I'll take you!" I ask her gently while caressing both sides of her face and looking into her red eyes. She definitely cried.

"I'm f-fine" she said but her lip started to quiver and her eyes started to fill up with tears again.she tried to look away from me but I didn't let her.

"Shhhh" I said as I wipe one of her escaped tears away that almost rolled down her cheek and kiss the tip of her small button nose. "Stop lying, it's obvious you're not." I state as I pull her into a tight hug and stroke her hair. She wrapped her arms around me strongly but slowly sooner or later.

She was basically clutching me with all she could.

My mind was whirling as I thought about who could possibly be doing this to us.

She starts letting out everything I knew she had in her. Her sobs echoed in my heart and I almost would've cried if it wasn't for the sudden soft push of her hands on my torso.

I would be lying if I didn't say I was not in any kind of shock. I mean just a few seconds ago she was clutching me and now she's pushing me away?

"What is it?" I said. She has never done that before.
"We need to talk" she said shakily.

I was trying to wrap my head around this entire situation when all of a sudden I was aware of the eyes I felt on my back.

That's when I heard the many footsteps behind us coming from down the hallway and the leading voice that clearly stated "Now, now girls. That's not normal,it's disgusting"
