Kim's POV

I wake up to a fresh start of a new day. Its the first day of high school And I'm quite excited. I'm a senior and for the past three years i have been getting bullied. So i'm not excited for that. (who would be). I get out of bed and i do my makeup, then my hair, and i get dressed. I end up wearing a baggy shirt with holes in the sleeves and some black skinny jeans with a hole in the right knee. I grab my phone a text my best friend michael.

Me:
Hey Mikey you on your way

Mickey:
Ya I'm leaving now

I didn't respond after that so i went downstairs and got an apple and waited for Michael. Once Michael got to my house and pulled in my driveway i got in my car and we drove to school.

We like to get to school early because i don't like to get teased in the morning. Me and Michael went to breakfast and got our food and sat down. And my heart dropped down to my toes when i saw Luke Hemmings my bully. He is the second worst of them all. He usually helps out with Ashton Irwin who is sitting right next to Luke. Ashton usually is the one who beats me to death. And then there is Calum hood he usually just threatens me. Its like they all have a certain job. I saw that Calum noticed me and pointed out that i was here to the other boys. I get up and run to the library with Michael following behind me. I was terrified. Once i get to the library i dont see the librarian around. CRAP. I see Calum, Luke, and Ashton walk in the library. I look at my feet knowing this isnt going to be good.

"You know you aren't supposed to run away from us, you know the rules" Calum said with a smirk.

"I know" i said i a scared tone

"Now you have to be punished" Ashton said

I look up at Luke and Ashton and Calum just stans back and watches guard. Ashton comes twards me and punches me in the face, hard. I feel my eyes start to water. Ashton pushes me down and starts to kick me in the stomach. Luke held Mikey back so he doesn't get to Ashton. Ashton is still kicking me in the stomach when Calum yells teacher And they all scramble to get out. Michael runs towards me and pics me up and takes me to the girls bathroom. Michael is gay so he doesn't really care about anything girl related. Except dating them. He looks at me eye and I wince when he tries to touch my eye. I stand up and almost fall back down because my stomach hurt so bad. I looked at myself in the mirror and I see a bruise starting under my eye. I lift up my shirt and look at my stomach there is a giant red circle. I start to cry and Michael comes over and gives me a hug. He rubs circles on my back.

"Why me" I cried letting tears run down my face on to Michaels shirt.

"Its all gonna be okay" he says

I push away from the hug "how do you know you haven't been bullied for 3 years"

"No I haven't but I gave been abused by my dad for 5 years"

I stood there in shock. "Why didn't you tell me you are getting abused"

" was not anymore, this was like in the 5th grade"

"Why didn't you tell me" I say louder

"Because I knew that you would be mad and I didn't want you to treat me differently" he says tears running down his face.

The bell rings and we walk out of the bathroom. We walk our separate ways.

Lunch

I walk out of the class room and meet Michael by his locker. We walk to the lunch room and sit in our usual spot. "This is the worst first day of school ever"
