a revelation that changes everything

To say the rest of the day wasn't weird after what happened would be an understatement

People were still whispering and staring, trying to be subtle at that but didn't always succeed

Those things weren't in a bad way though

They were looking at me like I was some kind of hero that had slayed the dragon and freed the damsel in distress, but that wasn't that at all, i was just defending myself, standing up for myself for the first time in years for something that I was wrongly accused of or just gossiped of, but it was still the same thing

Those students were victims too, either of bullying or just gossip, wrongly accused, wrongly being tortured by people who were better, cooler than them, who just wanted to be left alone

I hope what I did may have done something that would motivate them to stand up for themselves

There was one thing that worried me though and that was the silence from the popular clique

They were just staring, like predators ready to pounce on their victims and eat them alive and that was scary

I needed to be on guard all the time no matter what, I didn't need any more drama, i had enough already

One thing that worried me more than that was that Alex wasn't among them, did she hear what happened?Did she believe the gossip?Did she know anout the flowers?Just what was wrong with that girl?

I just think she wanted to drive me insane, that must be her goal

I walked into the classroom and sat on my sit, my friends doing the same but I saw them watching me carefully with worry and awe in their eyes

First period was English with Ms. Grant and things were calm, a little weird because Kara for once was not writing anything Ms. Grant said, she was looking at me and then back to Lena, not paying too much attention at all, but it was nice, calm was good, i only hoped it wasn't the calm before the storm

The rest of the day passed like that, glint filled looks and whispering but nothing big

It was now 5th period and it was Mr. Henshaw's class

I walked alone towards the claaroom since none of my friends had the same class and before entering i could see that Kate was already there sitting, with her legs up it the table, looking towards the door

When she saw me she withdrew her legs and sat straight up in her chair looking at mewith a glint in her eyes

I stepped closer to my sit and before i could even leave my things down she started talking

"Oh look who it is, the hero of the day...the saviour of all the mistreated...how do you feel to be a hero Sawyer?"

"Har har Kate, really? I just wanted to clear things up, i am no hero or anything"

"You know that all those people outside think of you as their hero Maggie...or at least they respect you a lot more now an do not think for even a second that it didn't take a lot of guts to do that, that was awesome, also I guess a thank you is needed to be said from my point, so Thank you Sawyer"

"No need to thank me Kate, I just couldn't jandle all the you know what, I just exploded nothing else"

"Well that explosion did something, you will see it and yes I have to thank you, those gossip things were about me too so..."

I had to talk to her about the flower thing, I couldn't keep myself from not knowing

"Your welcome then, there is something i wanted to talk to you about but that can wait until later, ok?"
