Bullied By Dan Howell

Part 3

2 weeks later  (Still Emma's perspective)

Everyday was the same the past 2 weeks Dan was bullying me every chance he had and luckily the bruises went away. Last night was one of the worst nights of my life. I couldn't sleep because I was so afraid of Dan. When I fell asleep for the final time that night it was 5:00 in the morning and I had to wake up in an hour.

I woke up to my alarm going off for the third time. I opened my eyes and looked at my phone. I over slept! I jumped up and put on Jeans, an MCR t-shirt, black vans and a beanie. I brushed my hair and teeth. I realized if I walked or ran to school I would be too late. I grabbed my skate board and ran out the door. I luckily got to school in time with 5 minuets to spare.

Before School: "Emma you look so tired what's wrong?!" Phil and Alison say running up to me. "I couldn't sleep and I woke up late so I had to ride my skate board here" I say out of breath and putting my skate board  in the bottom part of my locker. "Philly can I kill Dan?" Alison says looking up at Phil. Over the course of the past 2 weeks they became best friends and we are all in a group. "Only if I can help" Phil says laughing. "I love you guys" I say forcing them in a group hug. "Ugly as always" Dan coughs walking by. "Shut up Dan" Phil and Alison say in unison. "Make me" he says smirking trying to provoke Alison. "Oh I will" she says walking up to him. "You're just a weak girl  you can't do anything to me" he says looking down at her. "Did he just" Phil says his jaw dropping. "You did not just say that" she says getting furious. "Yeah, I did" Dan says. I instantly grab Alison's arm to hold her back. "You're lucky she has my arm Howell cause if she didn't I would f-" she says getting cut off by me pinching her wrist. "Chill" I mouth to her. "Emma Alexis Jacobson I will not chill. I will do anything to defend you. You've been my best friend since we met in second year. If someone hurts you they hurt me. If someone tries to bother you they bother me. Emma we are one. We look after each other. We need each other" she says her eyes watering in anger. "Al" I say as she comes over and hugs me. "I love you" she says hugging me tightly. "I love you too" I say hugging her tightly back. At this point we're both crying into each other. "Later Jacobson" Dan says poking the back of my neck and walking away. I just roll my eyes and hug Alison goodbye as she walks to her locker.

Locker Break 1:I get my math book and get to class.

Maths: Dan and I are the only ones in the class for about 10 minuets. "Emma I promise this is 100% serious" he says looking over at me with hurt eyes. "What Dan?" "The only reason I've bullied you was because I- I like you" he says blushing. My jaw slightly drops. "W-What?" I say looking confused. "I like you Emma. I'm so sorry please forgive me I feel horrible. I know you'll never forgive me but just know I'm so so sorry please forgive me" he says his eyes watering. "D-Dan I- I don't know. I've always thought you were cute and all but I just don't know" I say looking down. "I know, you'll never ever like me the way the way I like you but can you just think about him please?" he says some tears escaping his eyes. "I- I'll think about it" I say slightly smiling. "Good. I'm so sorry Emma I know I'm a total ass to do all of that to you" he says slightly smiling back. Then everyone walked in. I couldn't focus that whole class. All I could think about was Dan and how he liked me. I didn't know what to do. Luckily I have two amazing friends that can help me decide what to do. "Emma are you alright?" Mr.Lee asks. "Y-Yeah i'm fine. Just have a lot of things in my head that i'm trying to sort out" I say slightly shaking. "Okay" Mr.Lee responds. Then the bell rings and I try to hurry out but Dan grabs my hand. I wince out of surprise.

Locker Break 2:"Let's go together" he says smiling. "Okay" I whisper. He continues to hold my hand as we walk to my locker. I open my locker and he didn't close it. That was the best feeling. I got my history book and waited for Phil as Dan walked to his next class. "Phil..." I say looking down. "Yes? Is it Dan?" he asks. I nod. "Dan told me... he um" I say shaking even more. "He likes me and he's sorry" I say quickly. His jaw drops. "I don't think you should trust him to be honest sweetie" he says hugging me. "I don't know what to do. He was crying so what does that mean?" I ask burying my face in his chest. "I don't know. I don't think you should trust him" he says hugging me tighter. "I'll ask Ally at lunch. I want a second opinion" I say as he walks me to class.
