Fighting

Chapter 4

I guess today's event spread faster then the plague. Rachel's army had been pushing me all day into walls and lockers. "Look at the bitch" or "She's such a skank" As i was rushing toward my next class i stopped. That one hurt a lot. Not because of what was said. I'm too used to bullying but it was who said it. Jenny, I turn and look with confused eyes. She looks dead straight at me and says "Run along little whore, I heard aids is contagious." When i was about to retaliate with a smart remark i realize something. That used to be my best friend. The one i told all my secrets to. The one i trusted with my darkest truths. We used to be as close as sisters. Now she uses my secrets to harm me. I don't understand. How could someone throw all that away? All for popularity and some asshole boyfriend. I turned to see no other than the schools jock and official asshole, Matt. He looks toward my direction and smiles slightly. What the hell? He knows better than to look at me after all he's done. Then i realize as I turn my head slightly I see Jenny. She runs past me and jumps into Matt's arms kissing him. That's who he was smiling at. My two ex best friends have found happiness in each other. I should be happy for them, but I can't. The longer I look the more vile seems to rise in my throat. I race to the bathroom to compose myself when my face crashes into something hard. Two large arms wrap around me catching me. "You know we've got to stop meeting like this." Daniel says. Oh wow, if the boy didn't think i was a klutz he sure does now. His smirk has me completely mesmerized. Too bad I don't have the time or patience to talk right now. As i try to slip past him he grabs my hand. I quickly draw back and see the hurt flash in his eyes. "Hey, i'm sorry. You know i never caught your name before." I sigh, there's no way to run and hide and pretend i'm non-existent anymore. "J-J-Jade" God damn that stutter. "Well Jade I look forward to getting to know you, and for our coffee. Meet me at the Starbucks in the mall after school?" "Sure, but i've got to go." I take the second he thinks of a reply to take off, running as fast as my feet will take me. He doesn't need to get to know me, he wouldn't like me when he finds out who broken I really am. No one would. I finally make it to the women's restroom and hurry in. I lock the door behind me and stop when i see myself in the mirror. My skin is pale and lifeless, my eyes are a full brown with no sparkle. Why does he want to know me? I'm nothing. I can't possibly be appealing to him, He's handsome. Those bright eyes, that devilish smirk. This has to be a prank, there's no way it's real. The bell rings signaling class and I rush out of the bathroom. Back to torture , to be left alone with my own thoughts. Deafening to the rest of the world around me.
