Wings | Seven

Wiping the tears falling from her eyes with her sleeves, Y/n stared into the mirror.

"Its alright. Its going to be fine."

She took a deep breath and stepped outside of the bathroom.

"H...Hi guys."

Y/n mentally slapped herself for stuttering. She mustn't show a single sign of fear.

She could hear snickers of the other students around her.

Her body starts to tense up, she could feel the heat rushing onto her face.

"Get lost, backstabber!"

"She's disgusting."

"Kill yourself, you're not worthy to live!"

She heard it all around her.

"I...I..." stuttering, she stood rooted to the ground, head facing the ground.

Tears started to force their way out of her eyes, droplets staining her uniform.

"Please help me." She mumbled, praying a kind soul would help her.

But reality isn't kind, a student pulled her hair and ripped her uniform.

"That's what you get for betraying the class."

She snickered.

Y/n was silent. She was afraid but she wasn't going to show it, being pushed around was such an everyday thing that it didn't bother her anymore.

This girl was scarred. She's been hurt too many times. She just needed light in her life.

A boy grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her out of the class.

Ah. More insults.

"How long are you going to withstand them?"

Y/n stared blankly at the boy, whom she noticed had concern written all over his face.

"Stupid, are you listening?"

Y/n smiled foolishly.

This boy whom she had never met before, was the first person whom never judged her like how the others did. Was he perhaps an angel sent to her?

"Hello?"

He waved both hands at her, snapping Y/n back to reality.

"So... Y/n right? I'm Saeyoung. You can call me Seven."

He smiled at Y/n, his red vibrant hair catching her attention.

"Yeah... but why are you treating me like this? Why didn't you treat me like everyone else did?"

"Why would I follow my mother's footsteps?"

Seven said while smiling but Y/n could see the pain in his eyes.

"Look, I managed to endure my mum's abuse for so long, I managed to escape, so I don't want to see anyone getting bullied in front of me. It'll just remind me of her."

"Hey... Saeyoung... Thanks."

"Hey, don't thank me. You should give yourself a pat on the back instead. You endured that shit for so long, damn, you're brave you know that?"

Y/n's mood was uplifted, because of this redhead standing in front of her.

"Well, you're going to need this."

Seven said, taking out his jacket and covering Y/n with it.

"Don't want you wandering around in a torn uniform now yeah?"

Y/n thanked Seven deeply, due to her habit, bowed 90° at him.

Seven ruffled her hair,
"Silly girl, well, I'll get going! If they bully you again, I will fight them off for you alright?"

No.

The only person who treated Y/n differently was going to leave. She wasn't going to let that happen.

She pulled onto his shirt, jerking him backwards in the process.

After balancing himself, he turned around.

"Yes, Ms (last name)?"

"Can we... walk home together? I mean... I want to maybe... be friends with you?"

Y/n said, fidgeting with her fingers, she anticipated for the answer she wanted.

"Of course! I'll be more than willing to."

She heaved a sigh of relief.

Its going to be different now, she has Seven by her side to protect her. She isn't alone now.

He was her light and that was all that mattered.
