Endless love (Discontinued)

Chapter 12: sick

(Betty's POV)

Not a day in my life I had felt that broken inside. It wasn't that he had pushed me against the locker more that the friend I thought I had found in him left me all alone in my dark mind again. Now I started questioning me again, the project, everything that had happened in the last days. Of course I didn't hope for us to start dating nor did I develop feelings for him but I genuinly thought that we could be friends. But my hopes never come true.

I was still sitting there on the edge of the floor, crying and sobbing quietly while teachers and students rushed through the halls to their classes. I heard the bell and suddenly I was by myself. It was quiet and I realized that I was missing the second period but due to the feelings that I felt inside I couldn't just stand up and go to class. But I decided to stand up because I didn't want to risk being caught. So I packed my stuff and went to the secretary's office which was next door to the principal's office.

"Why are you not in class Miss Cooper, if I may ask?" Miss Oldbag suddenly appeared at the door. I turned towards here and quietly whispered: "I am not feeling well enough to present Sweetpea's and my Project. It's probably in both our interests that I don't throw up in class and possibly infect someone else. Who knows if I have something contagious?"

Miss Oldbag smiled at me, obviously pitying me and she nodded. "That is an understandable reason. Get well soon. We're rescheduling the presentation to next week, do you think you'll feel healthy again?"

She waited for me to nod and as soon as I did she went away to class again. I knocked at the door of the secretary and asked to go home, she gave me the permission.

As I arrived home, I called my Mum to let her know about me being sick which she only commented with "You're missing education. Get in bed and eat soup, you're going to school again on monday." As usual she didn't give me any time to complain or agree, she just hang up.

And then? I just laid in bed. I wasn't even crying anymore, I just felt the deep dark emptiness crawling up inside of me.
Why do these things just always happen to me? I asked myself curious how I deserved such a miserable life.
For others it might seem weird since I have a home, parents and a sister, good education, friends and food everyday of my life. But that wasn't filling me out, making me happy. Nothing did.

Suddenly a thought came up in my mind. Just small, not really of much importance. Who told other people the rumor of me and Sweetpea dating?
Veronica.
That bitch.

"V, come over after school, it's important - B" I texted her immediatly. Then I started waiting.
