Bad boy, jock boy and invisible girl

Maddy Lime

Hey guys :D new chapter...

Jessica's P.O.V

As the principals door closes, and brad disappears. Maddy, wiping her eyes heads toward the exit. The receptionist looks down at her and says
"Sorry honey but could you wait for another 5 or 10 minutes? The guidance councillors would like to see you," she nods towards the seat next to me and waves her hand as her phone rings making her turn away. Maddy shuffles over to me and takes a seat, giving me a fuller view of her tear streaked face.

"Are you okay?" I ask, watching her wipe her eyes and turn toward me.

"What?" She asks looking at me wearily.

I reach over to put me hand on her shoulder, trying to be friendly and she jerks away. Almost tipping her chair. Almost as if she thought I was gonna hurt her...

"Are you allright? I'm not going to hurt you, I just wanna know what's wrong." I say soothingly.

She nods, apologetically.

" Sorry, I've been having a pretty crap time recently. I'm just a bit jumpy at the moment." She smiles, but more tears come from her eyes.

"What happened? if you don't mind me asking?" I smile warmly, trying to convince her that she was safe here.

"Umm, I don't really feel like giving details. But basically there is this bully, and they just relentlessly are cruel to me." She whisper, sniffing to try and avoid another burst of crying.

"Oh, I have had those before. That's why I'm here, I punched mine in the face. I know it was a stupid thing, but it just seemed like the right thing to do! I regret it now" I mutter, staring at the ground.

"Really?" I hear her reply quietly. "Would you take it back if you could?"

I frown furrowing my eyebrows. That was a very good question. But I immediately knew my answer:

"No"

I turn to look at her and she smiles. With her hand held out for me to shake.

"I'm maddy, maddy lime"

I grab her hand and delicately shake it. Afraid of hurting her. But she just grins and turns back to face the door.

Cool.

I made someone happier.

At that moment I see brad step back out of the door murmuring something to pushover that I couldn't quite hear.

He stares at us for a moment, but then continues to leave.

"Ladies, ill see you around. Especially you sweetheart." He smoothly says before walking out of the room.

Urghh, that's so creepy. and yet why do I feel all weird and hot and nervous. I smile to myself, he is hot.

"Jessica, please come into my office" principal pushover says from her desk.

I turn and smile to Maddy, and she waves good bye. Oh god, I hope this isn't how I die. how undignified. I hobble into her office and sit down.

"Tell me Jessica, why are you here?"
Pushover smiles down at me.

"I got into a fight, with Kirsty. But what she said was a lie, she was taunting me... I wa..."

I get cut off by pushover laughing. Laughing? What the hell?

"What is so funny?" I ask trying not to sound annoyed.

"Oh nothing, Jessica sweetheart I've just been waiting for the day when somebody fought back, against that bitch of a girl" she smiles, still chuckling to herself.

I sit there dumbfounded, my mouth agape. What the hell

Did she just say bitch?

Did she basically just praise me?

maybe I won't die today, maybe ill get out unscorned!

" I guess some punishment is due though. Umm, one week of detention. Okay? And I'll hope not to see you again." She smiles, dammit.

I guess it'll be one week of hell then. I walk out of the office and see that maddy has gone, must've been called into the councellors. I walk slowly back to class, wondering what would happen when I get there, will people cheer me or boo me? throw things? Or hug me. Both options don't sound that great. But oh well.

This day couldn't get that much worse.
