I stare at my feet as I let them carry me through the wide hallway that was barely full anymore. School had just ended. As I walked, I noticed my footing seemed crooked like I was wearing to left shoes... I must look like a penguin.

I sigh loudly, tightly gripping the books in my arms, my shoulders feeling heavy, making me ache as they left me stiff. That's what happens when you carry three textbooks in your book bag.

Walking out of the two large exit doors that let people leave this hell hole, I shuffled my way down the sidewalk, glancing around the parking lot to see if any one was still around.

Nope. Everyone was gone. So, I thought.

"Is Fatty cold?" A short giggle sounded in my ear making my heart beat almost stop for a second,so scared at the fact that Katie had showed up out of nowhere.

I rub my arms, feeling self conscious as I noticed goose bumps covered them. It was cold today.

"Aw, poor thing." A large grin stretches across her face, and I could have sworn I could see wrinkles forming.

Before I knew it, I was shoved in shoulders, which caught me off guard. I stumble backwards, falling to the ground, into a large muddy puddle from the rain of the early morning.

I gasp as the freezing cold water seeps through my sweater.

Katie snickered slightly, almost silently as she took a step towards me, almost tripping in her wedges, and falling into the puddle with me. Katie wobbled in her shoes, smoothing her slutty skirt that was way too short. Wasn't she uncomfortable? I guess she was used to it, her own famous quote was: Beauty hurts.

I shiver as my jean fabric of my pants sticks to me, the water feeling like it was cooled in a freezer or something even though its pretty humid out.. I let out a shaky breath escape my lips, feeling like there's not any air to breathe.

"Do you need help?" she faked sympathy as she stuck a hand out, her sharp nails looking like claws. I felt my heart jolt when an evil thought goes to my head as I stare at her hand. Nobody was around, and I was sick of getting picked on, so I decided something. It won't hurt to get a a taste of revenge.

"You're so kind." I lied through my teeth with a fake cheeky smile, grabbing her hand as if to say I needed help up. She smirked, but it fell as I tugged my arm toward myself, making her trip and fall in the puddle next to me.

She screamed, shaking my ear drums as she immediately sat up. her hair dripping with grimy water, her white outfit coated with its lovely brown color. I quickly scramble to my feet, jumping out of her grabbing range. I couldn't help but laugh at her, my body was shaking from both the cold and satisfaction.

I shriek when she lunges at me, her dark blue eyes fiery in anger as she crawls to her feet.

Oh shit.

I sprint into a run, feeling like I was running from the devil. I look over my shoulders, slowing down my pace to see Katie was a few yards back, stumbling in her wedges.

I expected that she would take them off and run after me in her bare feet, she didn't which led to the wedge going in the wrong direction, making her fall to the cemented ground, her foot twisting in a weird angle as high pitched screamed echo through the air, causing me to freeze.

I panic when she doesn't get up, she just lays on the ground holding her ankle while groaning in pain. I quickly look around my surroundings, to see if I could find anyone who can reach the nurses office without me having to carry her into the building, or me having to leave her there, I felt fairly guilty as I slid my book bag off my shoulder, shaking my arms to get water off them.
