Cyber Hero - PruHun

Chapter 3: The Account

Elizabeta's POV

I woke up bright and early in the morning with the sun shining in my window. I expected my feed to blow up in hate comments like it usually does, and of course, it did. It never stopped and it started ever since the day after the breakup with Roderich and Gilbert going to Germany. Both of my best friends left me on the same day.

I yawned and stretched in my bed and got up by getting my phone and headphones. I noticed that my feed was more than it should be. Under my latest post, there was another person that seemed to have been fighting off the people hating on me.

Insert_username: Haha you slut

Awesome_Gilbert: Look who's talking

Insert_username: Um, who are you?

Awesome_Gilbert: All I know is that you don't deserve to call this wonderful woman a slut

Insert_username: Heh. Your one to talk.

I groaned and covered my face with my pillow and murmured something in it. "Why did Gilbert have to get involved in my problems?!" I muttered and I logged onto my computer and Skype when I immediately got a call from Gilbert. I'm guessing that he might have been worried about my cyber-bullying.

"Hey, Eliza how come you never told me about these people?" Gilbert asked with his camera on, wearing the same thing he did yesterday. It was the afternoon at that time while I just woke up. I sighed and shook my head, rubbing my eyes. "Gil, I could handle it and I'm not really affected by the hate," I said and turned off my phone.

"Eliza it's bullying. If you get used to it the next step could lead you to suicide," Gilbert said. "No it won't! I'm a strong woman and you know that! I shouldn't care about what other people think of me!" I exclaimed. Gilbert shook his head. "That's not what you said when you got into your last fight with Roderich! Hell, you were crying!" Gilbert said.

"Shut...up..," I muttered. Gilbert furrowed his eyebrows. "Shut up?! Your telling me to shut up and I'm the one that defended you? Eliza, your still hung up over the breakup that happened two years ago?!" Gilbert asked practically screaming at me. "Because he was the only one that saw me as a woman and not the girl the best up three guys! I did it for protection and he understood me! I can't even look him in the eyes for what he did, okay? But I still can't forget him! It's not my fault!" I argued with Gilbert. He shook his head.

"Yeah, but I'm warning you. If this cyber bullying continues, I don't want to see my best friend be the saddest woman in the universe," Gilbert said and hung up. I sighed and logged out of Skype and shut down my computer. My phone vibrated as I saw a message from Gilbert on DM.

I'm sorry

I sighed and put my phone away. I had to wait a few minutes before my anger could cool down. After that, I reached for my phone and responded.

Don't sweat it

I replied and put my headphones on and looked through my song list and started to listen to Yurima, River Flows In You since it's always able to calm me down. I sat on my bed, my head resting on my pillow and my hands folded. The position I would be if I were ever dead. I looked up at the ceiling with a puzzled look on my face.

Since when does Gilbert care so much about me? Maybe since we were kids he's been a good friend, if it weren't for him that day I would still be sobbing in the rain over a stupid breakup, and maybe I wouldn't really have friends in the first place since he introduced me to the whole school in freshman.

He was never a bad person. I just thought of him as a bit annoying, and talkative. And very full of himself. He has many flaws but that's what the whole world is made up of. I sighed and turned off my music when my mom knocked on the door.
