'True friends stab you in the front'



Of coarse friendships have their bumps and downfalls. But giving me silent treatment with no explanation? It was frustrating and really stressing. 'Okay guys, what's up?' I asked them, while biting into my lip. 'Don't belittle me!' I shouted, causing them to jolt up from their seats.



Paris sighed, while pushing her lunch tray away, so that her arms could rest on the table. 'Y/N, I-- we don't feel like we should be friends with you' Paris stated bluntly. I felt like my whole world was going to crumble down. 'Why? Am I not good enough for you guys?' I fired back.



'Shut up!' Aicha hissed, narrowing her eyes into slits. 'Whatever' I stormed, 'You might as well diss each other while you're at it' I spat. I ran swiftly across the hallway, making eyes to be drawn on me. To be honest, I hated the attention. But what I hate the most of all was, being rejected by the people I cared about. It stings.



'Ditching school again?' a voice says in my head. I wanted to feel happier, but misery just loves my company. There was a tap on my window. I glanced over at Daniel. I rolled my windows down, while eyeing him. 'What now?' I grunted. 'Let me in' he said, while tapping in my car.



'No, Dan' I sighed, while trying to roll up the windows, but his arms rested on my window. 'Dan..' I murmured hastily. 'I'm not leaving Y/N, until you tell me why your eyes are glassy' He stated stubbornly, while crossing his arms. 'Can't we talk later?' I protested. He shook his head.



Crying in a bad timing? Check. Loosing all my best friends in the same day? Random raining? ...Check. It was raining heavily, and the thunder was heard. Goosebumps formed on the surface of my skin, while my lips faded its rosy colour. 'It's raining, Dan. You should probably get going'



He seemed to not care that his clothes got drenched with rain. 'You'd probably not be surprised by the random raining here if you were a real Londoner' he lightly laughed. 'Come in Dan, it's hard to protest against you' I rumbled, while opening the door to the passenger's seat.



He quickly entered, and closed the door. He tugged a strand of stray hair behind my ear. 'Now, can you tell me why you're so sad?' he wooed. I gulped, and decided to let it out. 'My b-best friends' I choked out. 'They left me' I managed to say.



'Y/N, don't let them rain on your parade, in fact, they're not worthy enough to have such a great friend like you' he sympathetically assured. I cracked a weak smile across my face. 'Thank you' I whispered. He gave me a heartbreakingly reassuring smile.



'You're welcome. Now can you do me a favour and ignore them? They can keep their head up their asses as long as they want, but they'd have to go through me if they hurt you' He urged. I laughed lightly, 'Alright' I whispered.

The school eventually ended, and I got out from school. I felt a hard smack across my face, so I turned to see Amorie glaring at me coldly. 'What the hell?' I spat. 'That's what you get for being such a bitch' she huffed. Anger struck.



Being smacked by a girl shared a kiss with my ex? Check. Punching the girl right in the jaw? Check. Earning attention for the fight? ... Check.



'You little twat!' I screamed, while swinging my fist across her face while she yanked down my hair. 'Y/N! Y/N!' Daniel called out, while parting myself from the bitch. I breathed unevenly while eyeing Amorie with hatred. Dan promptly pulled my hand, leading me outside.



'Look at you! Your face is swelling up!' He pointing at my face. I wiped the blood from out of my lips. 'Dear, I never knew you'd ever get this mad before' He gasped. There stood bitter silence. 'I'm such a terrible person' My voice drifted away/



'Bullshit' he cut me off. 'Every single word of that was utter bullshit. Y/N, nice people have their limits, and you just got pushed to it. ' he reassured. I smiled in pain. 'Let's go, Y/N. Let's fetch you up' he said lightly. 'Are you sure you could drive?' he asked warily.



'No' I answered admittedly. 'Do you trust me to drive your car?' He asked.



'What about your car? How would you get it afterwards?' I returned him with a question.



'I'll let Phil to drive it to my house. Wait here Y/N, I'll lend him the car key'

Dan lightly rubbed ointment on my bruise that around my eye. 'Ouch!' I winced. 'You're stronger than this Y/N' he told me faintly. I gripped on his bedsheets while he rubbed ointment on my last bruise on my leg. 'Here, you're all patched up' he smiled, looking proud of himself.



I looked into his eyes, and he looked into mine's. The cold breeze entered the room, causing me to shiver. I closed my eyes while inching towards him. To disturb the moment, the door bell rang. Dan whined, while cursing the way down the stairs. 'Hey!' A boy piped. 'Hey Phil' Dan greeted with a smile. Phil looked so bashful and so bubbly.



'Who are you?' The boy said, with a smile. 'Phillip Lester, this is Y/F/N' Dan introduced. 'Hello' he waved. I exchanged him with a smile. 'I should get going' I said, smiling awkwardly.



'Wait! Please stay!' I turned back to face them in confusion. 'Do you want to stay for dinner? And while we're at it, Guitar Hero?' Phil pleaded. I chuckled. 'If it means a lot to you..'

Boy, do I hate school.. It seems like the shittiest place to be when you're pissed at people. Regardless of who you are, have a good day.
