Hannah's pov

'Hi!' Sophie says 'what do you want' I scoff at her 'can I sit with you today?' She asks me joyfully 'no you fucking can't, you've treated me like shit. You dated the guy who I still have a crush on and the guy who broke my fucking heart. You think it's acceptable to do shit like that? Well it's not, so no, you can go and find some other friend me and go and sit somewhere else because I do not want you anywhere near me' I flip my curled blonde hair in her face and storm off 'I'm sorry' she quivers 'yeah right haha' I laugh in her face.

I walk to my locker, Kayla isn't in so I have no one to walk with 'Hey whose the loser now' George shouts in my face 'shut the fuck up dude!' Reece slaps his best friend 'why have you become mr nice guy all of a sudden' Blake questions him 'just, just fucking stop' he scowls at the two boys glaring at them in the process. I smile to myself, why is reece sticking up for me all of a sudden? That's so weird.

The bell goes and I hurriedly walk to registration, I don't realise a teacher walking towards me as I'm looking down. Clash. I've bumped straight into a music teacher 'I'm so sorry sir' I say picking up my books 'look where you're going next time young lady' the teacher says stepping over my struggling body.

'Hey are you okay?' I connect eyes with a boy, the boy who I loved more than anyone 'oh yeah Reece I'm fine thanks' I manage to blurt out collecting the last of my work off the floor. He takes my coursework and places them carefully in my hands, our hands collide for a split second. We look in to each other's eyes and I feel the spark between us 'sorry I shouldn't have done this' he says laughing awkwardly 'no it's fine, thank you though' blush rising in my cheeks I feel my face burning with embarrassment 'we have English by the way after reg' I say to him as I walk away.

I'm beaming ear to ear.

I get a notification come up on my phone
*reece.bibby followed you*

Tingles appear in my spine and my heart misses a trillion beats. My belly is erupting with butterflies, I haven't felt this way since well, since year nine.

In reg I sit right at the back just like I always do, my jumper on, skinny jeans on and of course my glasses perched on the top of my nose 'Hey faggy, whose hour girlfriend now?' I hear one of the lads shout in the class. Everyone snickers, everyone but Reece. Instead he stands up and slams his fists down on the table

'EVERYONE SHUT THE FUCK UP! Why does it matter to you if she's gay or not! I'm bisexual okay, I have an attraction to both male and females okay! Just because I'm one of the popular kids everyone stereotypically believes that I should be straight well I'm fucking not. Yeah okay if only dated girls but I've also had a strong attraction to boys too and that is nothing to be ashamed of. I hope you all know how much of a sick bastard all of you are!' He takes a deep breath and the rest of the class are silent 'I hopped onto this trend okay called number neighbours and I've been speaking to the most amazing girl, she admitted to me she's bi and that I'm the only person she's ever told. She got jealous about this guy taking this girl she had a crush on, I'm the only person who knows about her being bisexual and I don't have a fucking problem with that! Yes I'll admit I've been a absolute idiot in the past but since saying Sophie for a few days I've realised that bullying literally does nothing TO ANYONE! Yeah great it may make you feel better but it completely ruins the other person' he breathes heavily again 'you all remember when' he points to me 'I cheated on her, I ruined her right? She changed and I fucking hated myself for it so I turned to bullying her, why? I do not know to be quite honest I have no explanation for the things I've done to her. So I'll say it right here right now Hannah I'm sorry for all the shit I put you through, I'm also so happy that you're finally coming out of your shell again and you know you're starting to dress differently and stuff like that. You didn't deserve anything I put you through in year nine and yeah I'm so sorry' the whole class claps and Reece sits down

'Wow Reece, that was a very powerful speech' my teacher says to says to him 'I think we should all take note of what he just said, stereotypes are a very stupid thing. Reece you have earned my full respect' she went over and have Reece and hand shake.
