The Bully

A Quick Fall Downstairs

A few days pass and I hope things will get better.

When Math is over, I try to find someone to walk me to our next class. Unfourtunately, almost everyone already walked out of the classroom. Except Inna and Tyler. I don't talk much with Tyler and Inna's ego is too big for her to hang out with me. But right now, I don't care, so I approach her:"Uhm...Inna? Can you walk with me to the classroom...I'm...I'm a bit bored." I don't know if I want to go alone again. I'm not bored. Not even a little bit. I just need someone to go there with me, because that way Rick will maybe leave me alone. "Sorry, I'm waiting for Tim." she answered me. Yeah, what else was I thinking? Who would want to go with me? Talking to me is probably a shame for everyone. Tim is Inna's boyfriend and she is obsessed with him, so he and her best friend Hayley are the only ones getting her attention. In my eyes he's a total dick to her, but okay...Whatever, I'll go by myself then. How bad can it be?

I carelessly walk down a few steps and then feel something on my back. No fucking way. He wouldn't do that, right? Well, he did. The last words I heard before my fall down the stairs was Rick's sarcastic:"Whoopsie." When I come all the way down, I get up and feel my aching body. There were so many people on those stairs, yet no one said anything. Everyone just moved away and let me fall all the way down. "That was a smooth, quick move for a slow ass like you." Rick said when he passed me by and I just tried to hold back the tears. I can't take this anymore. His voice is so disguisting and his walk reminds me of Led Zeppelin's song Trampled Underfoot. He is just one big mistake this world made. Or maybe I am the mistake here? He doesn't have a reason to treat me like this, so he is probably doing it because I'm too ugly and stupid for this world. Maybe he's just trying to help me get out of here?

At home I do my homework and then sit in front of the TV. My mom walks into the living room and tells me:"Taylor, change into these pants. I need to wash your black jeans today." I take off my jeans and give them to her. "And what are those bruises?" she asks. Oh no. My legs look horrible. I think quick. I need to make up something. But how can I make up an excuse for almost completely blue legs? I'll just change the situation a bit. "I was a bit clumsy and fell down the stairs at school haha. Didn't hurt much though." Mom takes the jeans and gives me a warm smile:"Silly. Watch where you're walking next time, honey." I did mom. It wasn't my fault.

You make me sick, just go away,
I'm exposing all of your fangs,
Your tongue is poisonous,
You serpent, you snake, you make me sick.

Some of you probably don't know the Trampled Underfoot, so here ya go, just imagine a lanky dude walking like this or something xD
