Sarah's POV
The first three periods of the day passed like nothing. I didn't notice anything and I didn't care to notice anything but Toryn and I could only hope he felt the same way I did about today. The time flew in the period before break and Toryn asked if I knew where the cafeteria was. "Honestly no I have no clue. There wasn't any time for a tour of the school so I don't know where anything is." He found my situation quite amusing. He tugged gently on the hem of my baggy shirt to say I should follow him. I followed all to willingly and he noticed but only led me to the cafeteria.When we were there he tugged me into the line and got himself today's special - burgers , fries with a side of pudding yum - then asked me if I had anywhere to sit. Am I sure he's a jock? As a matter of fact does he even know jocks don't act like this? "Sarah? Toryn to Sarah do you copy?" Staring into his oceanic blue eyes I had lost myself and must have looked like a dazed mess. Don't blush , don't blush. The heat crept into my cheeks and there was no way to hold it back. I tried looking away from him so he wouldn't see my tomato red face but he only turned me towards him so he could see. "You don't need to be embarrassed, it's very rare that I see girls blush over trivial things. Especially the cute ones."
Cute? Me? Does he even know who he's talking to? "Yo Toryn!" One of his friends called. It was the non-jock Jeffrey I believe. "Sup Jerry?" Oh mistake it's Jerry not Jeffrey. "You gonna come sit with us or are you going to chill with Red?" I was hoping inside and out that he'd want to sit with me otherwise I would feel incredibly lonely. Alas he went to the table - his usual table probably - yet as I walked away he looked back and asked, " Aren't you coming?" In an almost childlike tone. Oh my gosh he's too adorable. I just shook my head to signify a yes.
His eyes did that twinkle thing I loved- liked and slowed down so we could walk at the same pace. Once we got to his table though things took a turn for the worst. The weird guy from this morning was glaring daggers at me as well as Nina - whose cheerleaders were sitting with the jocks - whose arm was flung over the guy. I'm sensing awkwardness am I right? "Yes you are right?" Toryn answered my question that I had unknowingly said a loud. Nina sent me even harsher glares when Toryn leaned down to whisper the answer in my ear. This can not be happening? Unfortunately it was and things only got worse.
"Hey didn't you say you're not into jocks this morning?" The not-a-mystery guy asked me with a deadpan stare. "I didn't say I wasn't into jocks I said I wasn't interested in you. Is there a problem?"
"Heck yeah there's a problem. You reject me but you're instantly after Toryn, am I the only one who sees that?"
"What? No I'm not-"
"Exactly what Ethan said you're nothing but a slut."
"This is coming from the girl who was showing her everything in school."Jerry seeing the terror on my face attempted to intervene and calm everyone down but was cut off by a raging Nina pulling my glasses off and crushing them completely before everyone. "How do you feel now you blind slut?!" She screamed so everyone could hear especially Toryn. In a flash Toryn shoved his chair back and gave a fierce glare to his friends, "That's enough you guys especially you Nina. She's new and it's obvious she's not into me." That's not true...
"Whatever happened to homies over hoes Toryn. You're either with us or with this blind slut." The guy I
now knew as Ethan pointed an accusing finger at my face and I could only stare back at him. Unable to move , unwilling to speak and forcing the breath in my lungs to hold."I'm - you - what..." He was being put on the spot and his reputation was on the line. To popular kids their rep is everything so the chances he would choose me were as slim as an ant's antenna. Don't get your hopes up I know he's not going to choose me. So why why does it feel like my heart is already breaking for the upcoming rejection? "Choose." Ethan looked at me in disgust like I was a slug that had crawled onto his shoe. Don't get your hopes up. Toryn looked at me emotionless. Don't get your. He looked at his friends all looking at me in disgust. Don't get. He looked with guilt down at the spotless floor. Don't... I squeezed my eyes closed to keep the hot tears in before they slipped down my cheeks. "I'm sorry Sarah." He murmured loud enough so only I could hear. Tears threatening to spill over I look at him before his pudding is flung into my face and dripping down my shirt.
I can't hold it in after that. The tears flow down relentlessly and I run out the cafeteria not bothering to look back at the faces I know are laughing at me. I can't bear it . I knew the rejection was coming, I knew it would be humiliating, so why? Why did I still allow them to see the tears they caused. I'm weak. I can't do this anymore! Countless students , still on their way to the cafeteria stopped and yelled if I was okay at my retreating figure. I wanted to respond so badly but my body, my mind and my heart had different ideas to my mouth.
Running into the girls bathroom by chance and thankfully finding no one there I slump down against the door and bawl myself out. Letting the tears drop without worrying how puffy I'd look afterwards. I barely knew him, I knew he'd choose them so I shouldn't be feeling this crap. I want to be held in someone's arms. Let this pain end. After crying for a while - probably till the end of lunch because the bell rang and students shuffled past to go to fourth period. Not wanting to face the class again , and not knowing where my next class was , I pull out my cellphone and phone my mother.
"Sarah what's wrong?" She picks up on the first ring and instantly knows there's a problem. "Can I talk about it when you come to pick me up?"
"Sarah I can't just-"
"Mom please. I can't stay here , not like this." I gulp down a breath to keep the rest of the tears back and sniffel slightly. Hearing that my mom gives a weary sigh and is silent on the other line for a heartbeat before answering, "Okay I'll be there in 20 minutes. Where are you?"
"I'm currently in the girls bathroom but I'll fake sickness and have the teacher give me a note to send me home."
"Okay hun. I'm not happy with the fact that you called so soon but I'm on my way. I love you."
"I love you too." I barely let out that the response and it sounds like a release of breath instead of a sentence. Putting my phone away I see a stray student and ask them where Ms Dabad's class is. She was my drama teacher or she would have been if I'd met her. The student gave me directions and walked down the opposite hall. I'm already late no point in rushing plus I'm leaving again. Not to mention I have to see his face before I leave and he has to see this...
God why?With those dreadful thoughts in mind I shuffle slowly to class and it's almost halfway through the period when I enter the class and see Toryn, Jerry and Nina in the front rows. Toryn looking guilty , Jerry apologetic even though he did nothing and Nina giving me a chesire cat grin in victory. I don't care. Do I?
A/N so what happens to Sarah it's basically something that happens to me. Not the pudding down the face but bullying but unlike Sarah I keep it in , sad but true. Anyway so in the next chapter we see Toryn's point of view after the incident so stay open for that and tell me what you think. Comment, suggestions and possibly votes? Thank you you're amazing and awesome.
Lovesick
