Bullied

Chapter 9

Troian's POV

The bell rang for fourth period to be over. I gathered my things and walked out of the room.

"Wait up!" Cameron called. "Can I have your number?"

"Sure," I gave him my phone. He have it back.

"Later," He walked away and I walked the other direction.

I opened my locker and put things inside. I shut my locker and went to lunch.

I grabbed a tray and put a slice a pizza, a carton of salad, a bag of chips, and a bottle of juice on my tray. I paid for it and went to find a table. I saw Robert sitting by himself. I decided to walk over to him.

"Can I sit with you?" I asked him. He looks up and smiled.

"Sure," He said, moving his things closer to him.

I sat down and took a bite of my pizza. I open my bag of chips and set them next to my tray. I hear whispering and looked to see that kids were looking at me. A girl walked up to me.

"Who are you?" She asked, giving me a dirty look.

"I'm Troian," I said. "And who are you?"

"I'm Brooke," She said. "And you're ugly."

"No, I'm not," I said.

"And you're fat," Her friend said. "Fat people don't belong in our school. So get the fuck up."

I felt a sticky liquid going down my back. Someone poured juice on me. I screamed. Brooke and her friend started laughing.

"Chelsea, that's so funny!" Brooke cackled. She swung at me and pushed me on the ground. "Go fucking die, bitch! You don't fucking belong here!"

"Stop!" Robert yelled. "Leave her alone! She didn't do anything."

"Do you like her, Robert?" Brooke smirked.

"I just met her," Robert said.

"Whatever," Brooke laughed and high-five Chelsea.

I stood up. But Chelsea pushed me back down and kicked my side.

"STOP!" I screamed. Students looked and laughed. I swear I saw a teacher smirk. "Please don't hurt me!"

"You're so fucking ugly!" Brooke screamed. "Die, bitch!"

All of the sudden, I hear Brooke and Chelsea scream. I looked up and Emerson is standing there.

"Touch her one more time," Emerson said. "Or I'll hurt you."

Brooke and Chelsea nodded and walked away. Emerson helped me from the ground and pulled me out of the cafeteria.

"What the hell happened back in there?" She asked.

"I don't know," I said. "Brooke and Chelsea were beating me up and.. where'd you come from?"

"I was on my way to the science lab and I saw you on the ground," Emerson said. "Come on, I'm going to get you home."

Emerson took my hand and lead me out the school. We got inside Emerson's car and drove home.

"Is Valerie and Dad home?" I asked Emerson.

"No, they're both at work," Emerson said.

I nodded my head. We arrived at home. I got inside the house and went upstairs to my room. I took a shower and changed my clothes. I walked downstairs.

"Are you going back to school?" I asked.

"No," Emerson said. "I'm staying at home."

I nodded my head and walked into the living-room.
