*anti-lgbt slur warning ahead*

"YOU DID WHAT?!?!"
Olly slammed her hands on the lunch table.
Cass stared at me like I was loco.
"Shut up..! It's only one letter, anyway. He probably won't even see it."
Cass literally said, "I'm done" and left for the vending machine.
Olly grabbed my shoulders. "You don't get it! The CEO of the STATE PAPER could see it! What if they publish it?! Jesus, you might be famous!"
She shouted that last part, and the table next to us stared at us for a moment.
The bell rang.
Saved by the bell, literally.
Well, shit, I'm late for biology.

I gathered my books and shut my locker.
I started my way to the door, when suddenly-
"HEY ASS-SEXUAL."
I froze. Everyone in the vicinity turned around.
Devina.
Shit.
"Ass-sexual, more like LIES-bian. You're only gross like that for attention. Attention whore."
She started to laugh, so did most of her friends. Some of them started a chant.
"ATTENTION WHORE!"
I just turned on my heel, and walked to the door.
"ATTENTION WHORE!"
Everyone kept saying "Are you Ok", and "Oh my god", and some people laughed.
"ATTENTION WHORE!!"
One guy, Alex Pilgrim, patted my back. He's pretty chill.
"ATTENTI-"
I had walked out, and instead of the chant, I heard the leaves rustling in the trees. My face was red and my throat was stinging. I biked home as fast as I could, and ran to my room as soon as I got home.
*knock knock KNOCK*
"What."
My sister came in, despite her not being let in my room, and she said:
"What's up with you?"
I turned my head. I sighed. "Nothing, just.... go."
My sister shrugged and left. Probably to tell my mother.
I stared at my desk, still littered with eraser dust and postage stamp sheets. I quickly got up and tidied them.
William nudged his way through the door and jumped on my bed, laying on the pillow.
I glanced at him with a wary smile. It seemed like other than my friends, he's the only one who can make me laugh.
I stood up and walked over to my bed. I laid down next to him. I stroked his fur, before peacefully dozing off.
