Dreams Do Come True♥ (An One Direction Fanfiction)

Chapter 2~~It all started with...

~~Flashback~~

First day of freshman year, Peter and I walked through the doors of Wilmore High School. Peter and I have gone through everything together and I mean everything. His parents divorced when he was 6 so even though we had been friends only for a couple of years, we became closer during this time. Then in 6th grade, he found out his mum was getting married again I mean he was happy for his mum but she hadn’t told him the whole truth. When he was born, his mum had twins but she gave up the other baby because she was young, newly married and could only support one baby. Anyway, in 6th grade, a new boy named Tom came to our school and Peter’s mum saw him and ask Tom’s parents if Tom was adopted, they said yes and that his mum could be in contact with him now. She was so relieved that she got to see Tom again and he took seeing his birth mother for the first time surprisingly well. She introduced Peter to Tom as his brother and Peter was shocked at first but they eventually figured that they had the same likes and dislikes. They aren’t identical twins because if they were, I couldn’t tell the difference between them to save my life.

Anyway, Queen Bee I mean Brittany had always hated me don’t ask me why, because I don’t even know why. Ever since 2nd grade, she called me names, pushed me down, got her “minions” to trip me up, knock my books out of my hands, then came middle school and high school, she got Derek and his friends to push me into the lockers. I know you’re probably thinking “Why in the hell are you madly in love with Derek when he does that to you?” Well, I’ll explain why I’m madly in love with Derek it’s all started in 6th grade just after my parents left me and Kayley. It was raining and I don’t might the rain and neither does Kayley and I was walking Kayley to the bus that goes to elementary school; I saw that Derek was in the car with his mum. He told her to stop the car; he got out and started walking towards me and Kay. I started calling her Kay because we had got closer since my parents had left. Anyway back to Derek, his brother Dylan was in the same grade as Kay who had a huge crush on him. They were like me and Peter pretty much inseparable since kindergarten, back to Derek I just realized how off topic I get-wow! Derek asked me and Kay if we wanted a ride to school and I knew from that day that Derek Hill was my future boyfriend/husband; don’t judge me a girl can dream. We walked towards his mum’s red minivan, Kay got in the back with Dylan and I sat in the middle with Derek. We talked on the ride to school and realized we had all of our classes together which I thought was amazing because I knew we were going to become friends then boyfriend and girlfriend. Well in my dreams that happened but not in real life, 7th grade come around and Derek was off the market and belonged to Brittany Smith yep it’s not like my life sucked already.

He was officially off limits to all girls in school; we weren’t even allowed to look at him. That’s when I started cutting myself, I know it was stupid to do that because of as boy but that wasn’t all, Brittany started picking on me more because she knew I had a crush of Derek; the whole school did pretty much because of the stunt Brittany did. Brittany posted of my doodles that she got from my notebook that she took last week all around school and of course they were all doodles of me and Derek’s initials and Mrs. Derek Hill in hearts all over the page. I’m such an idiot for believing that Derek actually liked me, I have cried every day since then because Brittany constantly reminds me that I am useless, that my parents left me for a reason, dorky, ugly, forever alone, and basically every word in the bully dictionary and the English dictionary for that fact. So that’s why I started cutting myself and Kay found out a couple years later and since then has been watching me making sure that I don’t do anything I’m going to regret. Her, Peter, Tom, Nichole and Ashlynn our best friends are a team that has been making sure that I don’t think about Brittany or her “minions” and get the urge to cut myself.

One day, Kay made me promise in front of her and the others that I wouldn’t cut myself whenever Brittany made a comment about me and that didn’t last long because I broke the promise the next day. Brittany got Derek and his friends to push me into the lockers and to pin me there while she said this to me “Listen Ella I don’t know if you got this through your thick head but Derek will never and I mean NEVER be yours. You want to know why well you already know because he’s mine! You honestly though he was going to be yours well there’s where you wrong.” At that moment, she told Derek and his friends to drop me. As soon as I was on the ground, she slapped me right across the face that echoed through the hallways that made everyone stop talking and made their eyes look at the scene that was forming in the hallway. Brittany and her clique hovered over me, she bended down and whispered into my ear “I own you”; she straightened up and looked at me with an evil smirk on her face. Her whole clique even Derek and entire school looked shocked. Brittany snapped her fingers and everything went back to normal like nothing had happened and started walking with Derek and her minions following her. Derek looked back at me with this sorry look in his eyes like he wanted to come back and help me but I know that was never going to happen. I was repeating Brittany’s words in my head, right there and then I wanted to die but I knew if I did, there would be no-one to look after Kay. So I made a promise for Kay to find an end of this.

~~End of flashback~~

Kay was looking at me wondering if I was even listening. I did remember Kay acted more like a mum than my little sister. I knew I had to stop and so did Kay and the others. But they also knew that Brittany called me names every day of my high school life. That’s when I decided to make a same promise I made a couple years ago to Kay.

Ella: "I know I promised you, so I’ll make you the same promise again. Every time, Brittany and her “minions” call me names, I just think of you and the others.” As soon as I said, she looked at me with tears in her eyes. She quickly hugged me and held onto me.

Kay: “Why can’t Brittany just leave you alone? You’re the only one she picks on.” She managed to control her crying and take big breaths. I grabbed her chin gently and made look at me.

Ella: “You know I have no idea why she picks on me but whatever she says you’re going to ignore it, okay?” She nodded and gave me one last hug. Before she left the room, she turned and looked me “Ella, do you promise me what you said?” I replied back “Yes Kay I promise.” With that, she left the room to go do her homework.
