Chapter 49
The next day...
Today's going much better than yesterday so far, though the day is only half over. I still have lunch and two more classes to get through. My luck tends to be shitty so any moment something should go wrong. Almost right on cue, Brittany and her minions come crashing into me on purpose, causing my lunch tray and food on it go flying. Anger immediately boils in me and I clench my fists tightly. Derek puts a hand on my shoulder to calm me down but not even his gentle touch can keep the anger at bay. I slap Brittany's minions across the face. I then grab Brittany and pin her to the wall.
"I'm so sick of your shit Brittany. You think the world revolves around you and your dumb minions, but it doesn't. All you are is a stuck up bitch who has nothing better to do than tear innocent people apart. Well guess what, I'm not putting up with it anymore. If you decide to come after me from here on out, expect me to give you the same wrath, possibly worse. I can be a bad bitch too Brittany." I smirk as Brittany's face turns blue and she's gasping for air. "I'll let your pathetic self go if you get the hell out of my sight right now. Will you?" She nods like a scared puppy and I laugh manically as I let go of her and watch her run away with her minions. Once they're out of the cafeteria, cheers erupt throughout the cafeteria, making me feeling pretty damn good about myself.
Becky and Derek look at me in a mix of shock and horror. I don't think either one of them expected me to go that bad ass on Brittany and her minions. I give them both tight hugs. "I'm sorry things got that ugly, but I'm not going to apologize for standing up for myself. I'm tired of everyone thinking they can treat me like shit and get away with it. If you were in my shoes, you'd both do the same. I just know it." Becky and Derek nod in agreement. Our moment of awkwardness passes and the rest of the day goes just fine. Principal Neon tries to give me before and after each class period, but I tune him out just as I do with pretty much everyone that isn't Becky, Derek, or my parents. They're the only people that truly matter to me. Everyone else is simply a passing ship in the night.
