My Cinderella Story (Liam Payne)

CHAPTER 71

"No." I glared at Hurlbutt, who thought she could make me put our spawn from hell in a dress. "Don't say not to me, I said dress Lucy. So that's exactly what you'll do." She walked up to me and smacked my cheek. "Fine. But I'm going to be late for school." I flinched and trudged upstairs. I guess I forgot to give her the pills.

Making sure I had all my protection on, including leather gloves, a bullet proof vest I found in Hurlbutt's closet, and a mask, I walked into Lucy's room. "Hey ugly kitty." I tried to sound nice as I shut the door. If I don't want to take another trip to the emergency room, she has to trust me.

Yeah, last time Hurlbutt made me change her collar she attacked me. I wasn't bleeding that bad, just to the point where I got blood all over the floor. Hey, at least it was only my arm, right?

"I know you're going to hate this, but I'll hate it too. You're a guy, and guys don't wear dresses, or get practically turned into a girl. I know you don't want to be gay." I said as I picked up the dress Miss.Hurlbutt told me to put on her. It was pink and frilly, covered in sparkles. Along with matching shoes and a hat.

This is going to be fun.

I carefully grabbed the cat and set her on my lap. Looking at her angry, naked face I sighed in shame. "Let's do this."

"Yikes." Cory cringed at my appearance as I walked up to her and Jewels after class. "What happened?" She asked. "I had to dress the cat." I sighed. I now have scars down my arms and band aids on my face. The cat clawed through my mask.

"Maybe she's actually possessed." Jewels stated. "It doesn't matter, Miss.Hurlbutt loves her. I did get a picture of her in her clothes though." I smirked and pulled out my phone. "Oh my gosh!" They laughed. "He looks so scary besides him being covered in fluff!" Cory laughed. "I know, he was MAD." I grinned.

"So, is that why you were late?" Jewels asked. "Yeah. I almost got detention but the teacher felt sorry for me because of how I look." I explained. They both nodded and we sat down outside to eat. It's a really nice day actually. They left for tour two weeks ago, it's almost march.

"Hold our seat and we'll go get our food." Cory smiled gratefully as her and Jewels walked to the cafeteria. While I sat there in peace, I heard loud clanky footsteps behind me. I turned around and frowned. Aubrey.

"What did you do? Cut? I wouldn't be surprised." She laughed with her ugly minions behind her. "No, my cat attacked me. That's why I look like this." I frowned. I would never cut, ever.

"Really? You always look like this." Aubrey smirked, followed by high pitched laughter from her clique. "Let's go girls." She snapped her fingers and began to walk away, before turning around and glaring at me as hard as she could.

"Don't forget what I said, I will ruin you. If it's the last thing I do."

I rolled my eyes and turned back towards the table. Even though I'm scared to death now.

Jewels and Cory walked back to the table with my food. I smiled and thanked them, not wanting to tell them what just happened.

"Look, it's Kaden." Cory whispered while we ate. Jewels face turned dead pale, she didn't move a muscle. It looked like she was about to burst into tears. "Just ignore him." I said. "No." Jewels spoke up. "We said we weren't done with him." She stared at him with a cold expression.

I cleared my throat and stood up. "Let's go then." I nodded as she stood up from the table. I looked at Cory and she shook her head. "I rather stay here and not get into trouble, thank you." She smiled.
