School Shooting

chapter 5

I go to my class with a few complications. 1) Julia decided to pick on me.  2) I didn't get to class on time. And 3) the teacher wants to see me after class.

I just smirked when the teacher said that because little does she know.

Time passes and it was time for lunch. I decided to actually get something today instead of hiding in the library. Because today is a special day.

I pass by many people and I ran into someone that made us both fall.

I see who it is and help him up because that is the boy that my brother and his basketball friends pick on. All the time.

"Sorry, I didn't see you there." I say to Mark when he is back on his feet.

He doesn't make eye contact with me and doesn't say anything.

He is taller than me and he is looking down so it's easier to get his attention by moving my head in the same direction as him

"I'm not like my brother you know?" I start to say. "I don't know why he does what he does but I don't forgive him because of what he is doing. It's just not right." He still doesn't look at me.

"Well, I'm going to lunch right now, if you want to join you can." I don't know why I said that, but was glad I did.

However, when I said that he ran the other way.

See Alex, see what you did to him!?" Now I was angrier than before.

I got my lunch and sat by myself. Then another goon came over and started to mess around with me. Saying verbal abuse to me and she even started to grab my hair.

I yanked my hair away and slammed my tray against the table. She seemed startled but kept her composure.

I look at her and say, "You'll regret that later." In my most scariest voice I can muster.

She looked terrified, so I got up and left the cafeteria. Oh how she is going to regret that tomorrow. I say to myself.

But little did I know that Mark was there and was watching the whole thing.
