I woke up the next morning to my school alarm...great. I was wrapped up in all my blankets, all nice and warm and comfy, and them the alarm goes off. Typical. Max had obviously left during the night as he wasn't squashing me. I got up and turned my alarm off, I changed into some clothes for school then went downstairs.

No one was up, like usual, so I poured myself some cereal, a lot. Well, I won't be eating today so I have to fill myself up. I finished 3 bowls of cereal then put the box away and gave Max a small scoop of dog foot for his breakfast then let him out.

I wandered back up to my room and did my hair, I straightened it, then curled parts of it. I then brushed my teeth and headed off downstairs. I let the dog back in then said goodbye to him before grabbing my school bag, -making sure I had enough food- then headed out the door and towards school.

I reached the hell hole. I stood and starred at it for a second then slowly walked in, making my way to my destroyed locker.

Oh great. Nash and Cameron are waiting next to my locker.

I opened it and put my bag in, and just getting out the books I needed for my first couple of lessons.

"You got our food?" Nash said, blocking me from walking away from him.

I nodded and looked down.

"Good." I heard Cameron say. I turned around and he was there. There was no way I could get away until they decide to move. "So, what's up with that puppy of yours? It's quite aggressive don't you think?"

I just shook my head and stood in silence as they poked and made fun of me. After about 10 minutes had passed they went to their lesson. I huffed, knowing I would get in trouble for being 10 minutes late. I walked up to my maths classroom and slowly walked in. All eyes looked towards me. I quietly made my way over to my seat and placed my books on the desk, copying what was written on the board.

It was now lunch. I grabbed my bag with Nash and Cameron's dinner in it and walked to the cafeteria, sitting in my usual place, waiting for them.

They soon arrived demanding for food. I handed them everything I had and started to walk away until one of them put their hand on my shoulder, stopping me. I turned around and Nash was looking at me in disgust.

"What, the, FUCK, is this?" He asked lifting up a sandwich.

I looked down and tensed up, waiting for the impact of the punch I was about to receive.

"You're lucky people are looking" Nash snapped "we'll get you after school, so watch your back!" And with that, they walked away.

I sighed and walked to the girls bathroom, like every lunch. And locked myself in one of the stalls. I don't do anything while I'm there. I just sit. In silence. Waiting for the school day to end.

After the last couple of lessons had passed I then grabbed all of my books and tensely made my way back home. Just waiting for Nash and Cameron to find me. And sure enough, just as I exited the school premiss the grabbed me. Here we go.

"Poppy, I just want to say, we're sorry for earlier. We don't know what came over us. Please, walk home with us?" Cameron smiled.

What. The. Fuck. Is. Happening? Why are they being nice? I bet this is some sort of way to get to me more so they can beat me. It even try and kill me.

"Poppy? Please?" Nash asked.

I didn't know what to do. Do I nod and take the risk of walking with them? Or do I shake my head? Either way I will probably have to walk with them. Damn.

I carefully nod my head and carry on walking back to my house. Why couldn't they just have punched me, get it over and done with? Instead of having to walk with them. For Gods Sake.

They asked me questions all the way home, which I just either ignored or simply nodded or shook my head. This was worse than being punched.

We finally reached my house and I walked to the door, getting my key from my pocket and unlocking the door.

"This was fun, we should do it again some time" Cameron smiled.

I ignored him and opened the door. Max rushed out to greet me so I grabbed his collar and carefully pulled him back inside before greeting him back.

Why where they being so kind all of a sudden? This scared me more than them physically hurting me.

***** Cameron's POV *****

I was sat in my French class with Nash and a couple of our friends. Messing around like we do every French lesson because the teacher couldn't care less. We where playing Truth or Dare.

"Cameron, Truth or Dare?" Aaron asked me.

"Dare" I smiled, I was pumped and ready to cause a scene.

"Ok, I dare you to get closer to that Poppy chick, pretend you like her, get her to trust you. Then just drop her" Aaron smiled.

"Pretty good, pretty good" I agreed nodding to the dare I had just been given.
