Jackie woke up from her slumber and looked at her window. Time to start the day. She dragged herself out of bed, not wanting to go to school and see Lillian's clown face. Jackie cringed as she thought of her. She was a two face. Acts all innocent in front of the teachers, acts like the devil in front of others. Lillian also has a group of girls that helps her out with the bullying. Jackie was unfortunately apart of the group and she dreads it. Most of the girls in her group were either forced or in because they didn't want to become a victim themselves, Jackie being on of them. As Jackie finished her morning routine, she quickly grabbed her coat and snow boots and ran outside, only to slip on a sheet of ice in front of the doorway. "Look at her! She fell down! Hahaha! Look, she's about to cry!" A group of 10th graders laughed as they passed the 9th grader. She looked down and furiously wiped the tears off her face. Luckily, she wasn't wearing makeup.
     After a couple of minutes, she finally reached her school. She sprinted up to the entrance and up the stairs to get to her locker before Lillian gets there. As she saw her locker in the distance, she began to run until someone sticked out their foot in front of her, causing her to fall. Laughter was all she heard. She was sick and tired of this nonsense, but remembered that she has no voice in this school. "That's what you get when you try to sneak in this place without paying me you dork!" Lillian sneered while her "friends" snickered. Jackie looked down and began to tear up but hold them in. "You're such a weak person! How did you end up in my group!" Questioned Lillian as she snapped her fingers to call up two girls to try to clean up her mess. "S-step a-away from her l-Lillian!" A shutter shouted from across the hall. Jackie looked and gasped in shocked. It was a boy named Matthew, a shy guy and one of Lillian's victims. She always saw him getting pushed around, she never thought she will see him standing up to her. "What.Did.You.Say?!" Lillian shouted. Her face was red from anger and it scared the wits of everyone. No one said a word. It was all silence until Matthew began to speak again. "Stay a-away or else I-I'll show this video to the teachers!" He yelled back as he held his phone high to make sure that everyone could see it. Lillian held a blank face and began to step away from Jackie, then ran away. A hand reached out in front Jackie to help her up. She accepted it and began to stand up. "Why did you help me?" She questioned Matt. He shrugged and then smiled. "Us dorks needs to help each other out."
