Abused Aphmau in High School

Chapter 1

Aphmau POV

*punch*
"Owww..." I groaned.
My dad had punched me in the stomach to wake me up.
"GET UP YOU LAZY B****!" Dad yelled before leaving the room.
I rolled out of bed and grabbed some clothes before entering my bathroom. I got dressed in black leggings, a dark purple short top, my leather boots and a long black jacket that covered my face with the hood up. I put my bangs over my left eye to cover my huge scar I got the first day my dad abused me. I put concealer on to cover the injuries  on my face in case anyone pulled my hood down. I grabbed my bag, hid my phone I had bought myself and left my room. I walked past my brother and dad who were eating breakfast. My dad doesn't let me eat with them because he doesn't care for me anymore. I left the house and started to walk to school. As I entered the gates, the whispers started.
"The freak is back."
"She's so weird."
"I bet she's ugly."
I ignored them and entered school. A girl with fiery hair ran up to me. I should know her name by now because her group bother me all the time, but I couldn't be bothered learning the names.
"Hey!" She said.
I ignored her and carried on walking.
"Why do you still shut everyone out?" She asked.
"None of your business," I snapped.
"Do you want to come over for a sleepover I'm having tonight?" She asked, hopefully.
"No," I said and strode to class.
I walked into Math class and sat in my usual seat in the back. People came in and stared at me. They couldn't see me glaring at them through me hood. The teacher finally walked in and told us there was a new student. A tall boy with a red mask and a hood on walked in. He didn't have a shirt on and his jacket was unzipped. Ugh, lover boy. All the girls stared at him, drooling and I just ignored everything and started drawing.
"My names Aaron. I wear a mask for reasons I don't want to share, so don't bother asking," he said.
"Well, you can sit next to...Aphmau! Aphmau, raise your hand," the teacher said.
I looked up from my drawing and raised my hand.
"Why does he get to sit next to that loser?" I heard someone say.
I sighed and started drawing again. Aaron sat next to me.
"Class, I don't have work for you today, so you can do whatever you want. Just don't mention it to the Principal," the teacher said.
"Hi," Aaron said.
I ignored him.
"Your names Aphmau, right?" He asked.
"Ugh, what do you want?" I asked.
"To talk to you," Aaron replied.
"Why me? Go talk to a make up monster or a PB or something."
"No. You seem more interesting. Also, I'm a loner too."
"Whatever. Just leave me alone."
"Give me a chance."
I looked at him and thought about it.
"Fine. It could be nice to have a friend, I guess," I told him.
"Great. That's a good drawing," Aaron said, impressed.
"Thanks. Oh, watch out WW3's coming," I said, pointing to the PG's that were heading our way.
"Hey cutie, want to go out tonight?" The leader, Ivy said.
"No," Aaron replied.
"Well, why don't you come and sit with us? You don't want to talk to this loser," Ivy continued.
"I'd rather talk to Aph than listen to you flirting," Aaron replied.
I stared at him, shocked. He just stood up for me and called me Aph.
"Ugh, whatever. You'll come crawling back to us soon, when you get bored of this loner," Ivy snapped.
I watched them with disgust, as they sashayed to their desks. I turned to Aaron.
"Why did you stick up for me?" I asked him, curiously.
"That's what friends do," Aaron replied.
"I haven't had friends in a long time..." I trailed off.
"Me too. All the girls tried flirting with me and the boys thought I was weird and a loner," Aaron explained.
"Yep, same here, obviously without the flirting girls," I said, laughing.
He laughed too.
"How long have you been at this school?" Aaron asked.
"A few years," I answered.
"Really?"
"Yep. This one group of girls tries to make friends with me everyday, but I never let them in," I explained.
"Why not?" Aaron questioned.
"I'm scared of making friends," I mumbled.
"Why?"
"Because last time I made friends I had to leave the village to move here and we didn't keep in touch because I didn't have a phone, so I haven't talked to them in years. I don't want to make good friends and then lose them again," I explained.
"I think next time you should let the girls in. Also, you could try and get in touch with your old friends," Aaron suggested.
"Ok, fine. As long as they don't try and pull my hood down," I said.
"I won't let them," Aaron smiled.
"Thank you," I smiled back.

*Time Skip To Lunch*

I was sat at my table as usual table alone. Aaron walked in and looked at me. He smiled and started towards me, but the PB'S stopped him. He shook his head at something and carried on walking to me. He started down.
"Hey," Aaron said.
"Hi. What did the PB'S want?" I asked.
"They were asking me to sit with them, but I refused and came to you," He explained.
"Oh. Well, thanks for choosing me," I said.
"We're friends remember?"
"Definitely," I smiled.
The girl with fiery hair ran over again.
"Hi Aphmau!" She said.
Aaron elbowed me.
"Uhh...Hi," I stuttered.
"Wow you said hi. Anyway, are you sure you don't want to come to that sleepover?" She asked.
I looked at Aaron and he nodded at me.
"Fine. I'll come," I agreed.
"Wait, really?! Yay! My house is number 6 Mystreet! See you tonight!" She squealed, running back to her friends.
"Good job!" Aaron said.
"I'm getting you back for this!" I snapped.
"Not if you can't catch me!" He shouted, running.
"Hey! Get back here!" I shouted, running after him.
I found him, crouching behind the huge tree behind school. I silently climbed up it and jumped down.
"Boo!" I yelled.
"Aaahhhh!" Aaron yelled, jumping up.
I started laughing and he joined in. Suddenly, I heard a voice that sounded like Lily, a member of the PG'S.
"HOW DARE YOU STEAL MY BOYFRIEND!!!!" She screeched.
I saw her and the entire school coming towards me and Aaron.
"Is she talking to me?" I whispered to Aaron.
"I think so. Who is she?" Aaron whispered back.
"A member of the PG'S. I think your her target for her boyfriend. All the PG'S think one of the PB'S is their boyfriend and it looks like Lily has taken an interest in you," I explained.
"Oh no," He complained.
Lily came up to me, her finger in front of my face.
"GET AWAY FROM MY BOYFRIEND!"
"First, get your finger away from my face. Second, he's not your boyfriend because he didn't even know who you were until I told him. And third, we're only friends," I snapped at her.
"HE WILL BE MY BOYFRIEND!" Lily screamed.
"Oh really?" I asked.
"STOP BEING SO ANNOYING. FIGHT ME!" She yelled.
"Ugh, fine," I complained.
She threw her fist at me and I  grabbed it before twisting her arm behind her back. She tried to kick my shin, but I let go of her arm and tripped her. However, she managed to pull my hood down before falling to the floor. I jumped and noticed everyone staring at me. Aaron quickly ran up to me and put my hood back.
"Thank you," I said, gratefully.
"Thank you for standing up for me," He said.
"It's what friends do," I repeated his words from earlier.
We both laughed and everyone was still staring.
"Should we go?" I asked.
"Yeah," He said.
We walked past everyone and headed to class.

*Time Skip To After School*

Great, time to face my dad and then go to a sleepover. Wait. I ran up to the fiery hair girl.
"Hi!" I said.
"Oh Aphmau!" She said.
"Can I come straight to your house now instead of going home?" I asked.
"Sure! It would be great to get to know you!" She agreed.
"Thank you," I said.
"No problem. When my brother comes out we can start walking!" She exclaimed.
"Ok," I said.
We waited for her brother and he walked out with the PB'S, including my brother. My brother stared at me and one walked over to me and fiery.
"Hey Cadenza!" He said.
Ok, her name is Cadenza. Good to know.
"Hi Laurance!" Cadenza said.
And Laurance. My brother has mentioned that he's a casanova before. Me and my brother are actually really close and he doesn't get abused. He's tried to stop my dad before, but it didn't work.
"And your Aphmau, correct?" Laurance asked.
"Yes. I'm Aphmau," I replied.
"She's coming earlier to my sleepover tonight!" Cadenza explained.
I saw my brother looking at me, shocked.
"One second," I said.
I walked to my brother, grabbed his arm and lead him to a place where we couldn't be heard.
"Aph! What do you think your doing? Dad will kill you if you don't go home!"
"Listen, Jason. I want to make friends and if dad kills me then I don't care."
"I'm going to Laurance's sleepover tonight so we will be in the same house. I can try to protect you, ok?" Jason says.
"Fine."
"Good, now I'm going early too."
"Oh, cool. Let's go!" I shouted, dragging him back to a very confused Laurance and Cadenza.
"Why did you drag Jason off?" Laurance asked.
"Ooh! Are you like secretly dating him?" Cadenza asked.
Me and Jason looked at each other and burst out laughing.
"What?" They both asked.
"He's my brother," I said while laughing.
"Oh. How did we not know this?" Cadenza asked.
"I just never told anyone and Aph doesn't talk to anyone anyway," Jason explained.
"Hey!"
"What? It's true!"
"I talk now!"
"And that's good! I saw you with Aaron and now your trying to make friends with the girls!"
"Ok, whatever. Can we just go now?" I said.
"Sure!" Cadenza said.
We walked to their house.
"Everyone will be here soon, so until then we should probably set up!" Cadenza squealed.
"Gosh, your excited," I laughed.
"Well, I can't wait to get to know you!" Cadenza squealed again.
"Ok, Cadenza you can calm down now," Laurance said, laughing.
"Fine. Anyway, come on," She said.
