Everyone knows. Everyone fucking knows. The secret's out. All these years for nothing. All these years I have been working to make a reputation in school. I wanted to feel... normal. Those 6 hours of the day in a place most teenagers hate. I fucking craved them. They were... they were like a breath of fresh air to me.
Those 6 hours of school made me feel like the little Tori who had her parents to lean on. I felt like the girl I was when I was four. Innocent and loved.
All it took was a guy. One guy who ruined my whole fucking life. He took away my happy place. He revealed me. And he is going to pay for it. I am no weak little girl he can ruin like that.
"There is a world out there for you to conquer." I read it for the billionth time now. It's the letter the nuns left for me. "Keep going. You need this for you, Tori. Not for me, not for them, not for anyone. It's you and only you who can pick yourself up. I am here for you. I am, trust me. Always have been. Always will be. But, what can mend you is your courage. Not mine."
I fold the paper and put it in my pocket. I am ready to leave for school today. For the first time ever, I hate it.

School is as shit as I had expected it to be. The constant name calling and guys asking for rates continued as I walked down the hall.
"Whore!"
"Slut!"
"She acts all Mother Marry around here!"
"Yo Jim! They are giving out pizzas at half price today!"
"I can't stand her!"
"Matt, man! You always bring good news!"
Why can't they all be like Jim and Matt? Mind your own fucking business people!
I fasten my pace. How far is my locker? I keep walking as I finally reach the spot. My locker isn't hard to spot since it has been generously decorated by the pictures he had posted online. Fuck you, rich boy! Actually, no. I am pretty sure he would feel insulted if I said 'never ever fuck you, asshole!'
I reach forward to take off the pictures when something hits me from behind. I turn around with a bored expression. Seriously? How many condoms did they bring today? I would have ignored it if I had not turned around to see my friends. I give them a weak smile.
"It's better if you don't try to talk to us. We don't want to act like 4 years old and ignore you without any confrontation. We don't care if it's true or not. We have a reputation to maintain. We have all agreed that it will be better if you don't hang out with us anymore." Jade says in monotone.
"Are you serious? Jade? You? Guys? Ple-"
"It's our final decision." Layla says.
"Augustus?"
