Warning: this contains swear words and language that some may find distressing

Bullying happens everyday,

people say it doesn't but it does

I know right "How do you know?"

Well, you have been bullied since the start of high school

you feel people's judging eyes on you everyday, It can be hard to ignore but you do your best as if you make eye contact with them they'll probably get mad.

You make my way through the large double doors that lead to one of the schools many corridors, a large group of girls snicker as you pass

"Slut" one of them mumbles

"Freak"

"Goth"

"Emo"

"Whore"

the words of hate are never ending.

a group of boys walk closely behind them "Move freak" one of them yells pushing you into a locker. "Why are you still here, no one even likes you" another boy snarls as he walks past you. 'I don't even know why I'm still here I mean its not like anyone would even miss me, right?' you think to yourself as the bell rings signalling its time for lessons to begin.

"How many guys did you sleep with last night huh 6,7?" one of the popular girls smirks as she passes you "Answer me!" she yells pulling your hair "None" you whisper "Yeah right" she laughs giving your hair one final tug before finally letting you go. You head to your English class only to be greeted by a new seating plan "(Y/N) you're sitting next to Ashton" you teacher says pointing to an empty desk at the back of the room. A few of the boys laugh and some of Ashton's friends smirk pushing him towards you. You take your seat next to Ashton and open up your exercise book, "Okay students now the seats you are sitting in will be your seats for the rest of the year" your teacher begins "And since you students seem to fail at any social interactions beyond your cell phones I want you to get to know your partner and write an SA about them to perform in front of the class" while half the class sigh the other half plea with your smirking teacher. About half way through class you get a ball of wrinkled paper thrown your way, it landed next to your feet and you look up to see one of the popular girls snickering with her friends "Open it freak" you pick up the paper and open it up. It was a drawing of you with some pretty harsh words around it "Hey what's that?" Ashton suddenly asked making you jump "Uh nothing" you smile surprised he was even talking to you. After placing the paper back in your bag the bell rang and you stood up to get back to your house before some of the other students could catch up with you "Hey (Y/N) about this project, do you wanna come round my house after school so we can start it?" you freeze he had to be joking "Uh-" "I mean you don't have to but I just thought it would be easier to start it now" he quickly added after sensing your apprehensiveness "Um...sure" you say "Great!" he smiled walking out of the classroom with you following closely behind. You walk into the carpark and Ashton leads you to his small red car, "I only live about 10 minutes away" he mumbled throwing his backpack into the backseat "Um okay" you say fiddling with your fingers "Are you okay? you seem kind of nervous" he pointed out after starting the car "Uh yes I'm fine thanks" you say still not fooled by Ashton's supposivley kind exterior if everyone else hates you then why shouldn't he?. After the short car journey to Ashton's house he lead you to the front door "Mum I'm home and I brought company!" he yelled placing is backpack onto the floor his house smelt like cookies maybe someone had been baking. Ashton's mother walked into the hallway and she smiled "Ash you finally brought a girl home" she grinned making you both blush "Uh it's nice to meet you" you finally say "You too sweetheart" she said pulling you in for a hug "Uh why don't we go upstairs?" Ashton quickly offered. He lead you up the staircase and into his room "Sorry if its a mess" he quickly said "It's fine" Ashton's room was pretty big, he had a large drum kit and a guitar in the corner "You play?" you ask he nodded "You?" "Just a little guitar" you mumble blushing slightly. "Okay so where do you wanna start?" he asked taking a seat on the bed "Anywhere I guess" you say "Why don't you tell me about your family?" he offers patting the bed signalling he wanted you to sit next to him "Well I don't really have a family my dad left me when I was 2 and my mum doesn't exactly like me she says I'm a burden to her" you stare at the ground "What about friends?" he asks chewing on the end of a black ballpoint pen. You chuckle slightly "Friends? I certainly don't have friends" you say "Why?" he frowns your eyes finally meet his gaze how could he be so oblivious "What?" "Why don't you have friends?" he repeats, you think "I...I don't know no one likes me" you say trying to hold in your emotions "I like you" he quickly blurts out "Really?" he nods and shuffles closer to you "Of course" he carries on with his questions "So do you have any hobbies?" you nod "I like writing music" "Really!? I write music too" he smiles "Do you have any songs I could read?" he asks "Uh...yeah" you reach into your bag and pull out your treasured notebook, the piece of paper from earlier fell out too "What's this?" he asks staring at the hateful image "Uh it's nothing" you stall attempting to get the paper out of his grip "Was it those girls?" he asked and you nodded "Yes but don't worry about it, stuff like this happens all the time" you mumble the last bit it wasn't exactly something that you were proud of. "Well it shouldn't!" he practically yelled "I've talked to you for half an hour and I can see that you are a thoughtful beautiful girl, they know nothing but you (Y/N) don't listen to them" you stare at the boy in front of you was he joking? he must be joking. But what if he's not? "You mean it?" you whisper "Yeah of course" he frowned pulling you in for a hug "Do the others do this to?" he asked "Ashton practically the whole school does stuff like this to me. The drawing is nothing compared to the rest" he shakes his head "What do they do?" he asks pulling away slightly to look into your eyes "They kick me, pull my hair, take my things and sometimes they follow me home from school..." with each word you said you could see Ashton getting more and more frustrated "No they're not doing that anymore, I'll walk to and from school with you and I'll take you to your lessons. I'm going to talk to every single person who has done that kind of stuff to you" "Ash you can't do that you'll lose all your friends, you'll end up like me!" he shakes his head and smiles "It doesn't matter (Y/N) you don't deserve to be treated like that, no one does and anyway they wont hurt me" already feeling overwhelmed by Ashton's words you suddenly wrap your arms around his waist in an unexpected hug "Thank you Ash" he smiles and hugs you back "No problem, now why don't you play we one of your songs?"
