When we got back to our room, I thanked them for inviting me, and decided to have a shower before heading to dinner.

After showering I am in a good mood, so I decide to wear a pink top, heels and bracelet, and a short green skirt. I top it off with a flower crown and a spritz of my favorite floral perfume.

I head on down to dinner, my stomach rumbling.
Tonight's dinner is different. I am invited to sit with the Winx, and several younger girls come up to me with beaming eyes telling me how much they love me for standing up to the bullies last night. In fact I completely forgot about that.
I don't feel hungry anymore, I begin to feel bad. What was I thinking? I know that all I did was a simple little prank but...

In a split second my mind is made up.

I stand up and look around the dining hall, then spot my target and walk over to them, ignoring the questions coming from my table.

"Oooh it's Flora! I am sooo scared!" The girl in charge says loudly.
Suddenly I hear silence and feel  all eyes on me. Not just at the table, literally the whole school was watching.
"No need to be scared girls, I actually wanted to apologize."
I say sweetly.

One of them chokes on their drinks.
"Go on then"

"Girls, I am really sorry for the way I acted yesterday. I know that you all might have deserved it, but I have just realized that that isn't who I am. No matter what you have done, It doesn't give me an excuse to be bad."

I stand there for a second in silence. The leader bursts into laughter, which makes me cringe and look down, but then something awesome happens.

"Shut up Nicole" Says one of the girls at the table.

Nicole that must be the leader's name. My head snaps up in surprise.

"I am sorry... What did you say?" Nicole threatens.
"I said shut up. You have taken this too far. You never know when to stop. Flora here is being honest and kind to us, and that is how you repay her?"

"Look, why don't you take your speech and shove it..."

Another friend cuts Nicole off ,
"No. Flora has made me realize how nasty we have been. I hate it. So if it isn't too late, We would like to apologize to you Flora."

My eyes widen, taken aback.
"R-r-really?" I stutter, suddenly nervous.

"Really and truly." another girl chips in.

"That is wonderful! You girls are great!"

"Oh, one more thing. Nicole, we are sick of you controlling us. We would like it if you didn't sit with us next time."
