Chapter 7- School

I hate this world I thought as I heard my alarm go off at 5:45 in the morning. What cruel person decided to make school start at 7:45? I practically dragged myself out of bed and dragged my feet as I picked out my outfit and went over to the bathroom. Once I got in the bathroom I took off my pj's and took a shower. I usually take a cooler shower in the mornings in hope of waking myself up. Usually it does sort of work but to truly wake up I need caffeine.

         My shower didn't take too long and I quickly dressed and did my makeup. The longest thing in my morning routine was blowdrying my hair. Even though my hair was a little shorter than shoulder length it still took about 30 minutes to dry my hair. Thick hair problems man. Once my hair was finally dried I quickly put on my minimal makeup and headed out of the bathroom. I almost forgot to grab my school stuff and shoes but I quickly ran into my room and grabbed all the stuff I needed.

           Lin was sitting at the counter when I walked into the room. I checked the clock, 7:10, haha I'm not late finally. I quickly went into the kitchen getting a travel mug and putting coffee in it to take to school. Next I quickly sat on the couch to put my shoes on and right when I finished that I heard Lin say it was time to go. I grabbed all my stuff for school and then we quickly left the apartment and got in his car to head to my school.

         I was honestly really nervous for today because I haven't seen or talked to Trent since Friday. Thoughts of what he could possibly be planning for me kept flying around in my head and I was terrified to find out what he really had planned. Lin stopped in front of my school as he said goodbye also telling me he would pick me up at 2:15. I gave him a quick wave saying bye as I got out of the car, shutting the door behind me. I looked at the school with disdain. The only thing this school gives me is bad memories and scars and bruises. I honestly liked the teachers and staff here but I just wish they would open their eyes and see what was happening in their halls, the bullying and hate. Oh well, I thought, sighing to myself.

          I walked to my locker getting out all of the materials I would need for my first period class. Of course, as I always do, I showed up about 7 minutes before class started so I put my books on my desk and went to go to the ladies room. As I was on my way there I noticed Trent and his group of goony friends. I tried to go unnoticed as I put down my head but of course that didn't work. Trent noticed me right away and his friends started yelling things at me.

         "Hey look over here it's the dyke" (That's what they like to call me)

        "Yea the little bitch who runs away from her problems"

        "You wanna go cry to your new foster parents"

       "Too bad they'll probably just give you away like everyone else"

       That last one was said by Trent as he got up really close to me trying to touch me.

       "Please can't you guys just leave me alone," I begged trying to act strong.

       "No why would we. You just run away like a little baby. I know you wanted what I was gonna give you," Trent said referring to what he was going to do to me before I hit him.

      "No I didn't want that. That's what no means. But of course you wouldn't know that because you live in a house and society that tells you even if a girl tells you no that doesn't mean stop. You think that a man is entitled to a woman's body. Well I'm here to tell you that isn't true. No means no, no matter what gender you may be, no matter what the situation is, and no matter if you are in a relationship or not," I said getting angry and ranting.

       "Little girl you don't know what your talking about. I know what no means but the way you were looking at me was a yes in my book. No means yes if your giving me looks or signals," Trent said while smirking at me.

       I just scoffed and tried to get around them so I could go to the bathroom then get back to class. Of course they couldn't let happen so Trent grabbed me and threw me back. I looked at him in surprise. Sure he was always perverted towards me but he has never been physical towards me. I shook it off and tried to go a different way because all I wanted right now was to get away from them. Next thing I know I was thrown on the ground and being punched and kicked by Trent and his friends. I couldn't physically match them so I just curled up and tried to protect myself as best I could. Soon enough Trent and his friends got bored and stopped beating me and turned to leave.

        "That's what you get bitch. Don't dare tell anyone about this because I will punish you. Be prepared I do plan to finish what we started the other day," Trent threatened looking down at me.

       Right when they left I started crying. I hate crying, I have never been a crier but I feel like this situation is a good one to cry about. How am I supposed to stop this? They are all so much bigger and stronger than me, I could never stop them. I spent awhile on the floor, I knew I was missing the beginning of world history, but I didn't care at all, I just wanted to lay here all day. No, I can't let them win I have to keep going, showing them that even if they can physically hurt me they can't break my spirit. I slowly pull myself off the floor and started limping towards my classroom.
