Can't We Just Stop?

Why?

Toni's P.O.V
I was currently in our bedroom when Cheryl bust open the door and yelled "Is it true!". I looked at her with a confused face and said "What are you talking about?" .She threw her phone at me and said "Open it". I opened her phone and saw a conversation between her and Betty. Betty texted that I cheated on Cheryl with Veronica. Cheryl responded with 'I don't believe so I'm gonna go and ask Toni if it's true'. I looked up at Cheryl and then I slowly started getting off the bed. "Answer the question Toni" she raised her voice at me. "Babe I can explain it was a mistake" I started off.
"What do you mean IT WAS A Mistake!!!" she said, yelling at this point. "I went to her party a-" "SHUT THE FUCK UP" she yelled with so much anger. "Get all your things and leave" she said without even looking at me. "bu-". "I said get your stuff and leave" She said calmly, cutting me off. I was honestly scared because she was acting very calm. I got out my bag and started packing all my clothes. I went downstairs and Cheryl was following right behind me. I opened the door and before I went outside I turned around and said "I just want you to know that it meant nothing to me and I love you". She just looked at me and slammed the door as soon as I stepped outside.

I sighed and started walking to wherever my feet would lead me. After 15 minutes of walking I stopped and realized I was outside of Pops. I dragged my feet into Pops and sat at a booth all the way at the back. I rested my head on the table and decided to get some rest. A few seconds later someone tapped me and I looked up to see pop. "Hey there kid you ordering anything?" he asked. I shook my head no and he told me to call him if I needed anything. I smiled weakly and then drifted off to sleep. After how many hours I got woken up by someone. I rubbed my eyes to see that it was Pop.

"Toni I'm about to close up so you have to go now" he told me. I nodded understanding him and picked up my bag. I said bye to Pop and headed outside. I had no where to go so I decided to go find a bench to sleep on in the park. After a few minutes of walking around the park, I finally found an available bench to sleep on. I took out a blanket from my bag and used my bag as my pillow. After making myself somewhat comfortable as I could be, I decided to go to sleep.

Next day
I woke up to the sound of birds tweeting and I groaned while stretching. I blinked many times to adjust my eyes to the sun. I realized that there was school today, and I checked my phone to see what time it was. It was 9 o'clock which means I missed 1st period. I quickly ran to school and immediately went to the bathroom to change my clothes. I put on a random pair of jeans and a black shirt, and sprayed myself with some cologne. I quickly brushed my teeth, got out the bathroom and made my way to 2nd period. I opened the door quickly and every head was turned to me.

"Ms.Topaz may I ask why you're late this morning" the teacher asked. "Ummm I had difficulty getting here because of my car" I responded. "Well either way you're late so you have detention after school, now please have a seat so I can continue the lesson". I found a seat in the middle of the classroom and it was beside Betty. "Why are you late to class cheater?" Betty asked. I just ignored her, and tried paying attention to the teacher. During class it was just Betty insulting me about cheating on Cheryl. She was getting on my last nerve when the bell rang. I quickly gathered my stuff and exited the classroom to go to my next class.

Lunch
Somehow word got around the entire school about Veronica and I. I was constantly getting insults from other kids and I was getting irritated but I had already gotten used to it. I was in the line getting lunch when a kid poured a milkshake on my head. I got a tray and a lot of napkins and went to my locker to eat my lunch. I used the napkins to get the milkshake off as much as possible. I didn't really care if anyone saw me, so I changed my shirt in the hallway. When I finished changing I ate my lunch and went back to the cafeteria to throw out my trash. I threw out my lunch and went back to my locker, and I saw 2 girls and 3 boys standing there. I went up to them and said "Excuse me your in the way of my locker". They all just laughed and said "And we don't care". I pushed them out the way and started opening my locker when I felt someone ram into me.

I fell and hit my head on the floor, when someone grabbed my by my shirt and punched me. I kicked the person off of me and punched them repeatedly when someone kicked me in my side. I moaned in pain and rolled to the side. Two of the boys held each of my arms while the other boy started beating me in my stomach and face. I glanced just to the side and saw that Cheryl was standing there just watching them beat me up. The boys stopped holding and beating me and ran. I could barely move so I just stayed there on the floor. I looked at Cheryl who was still standing there and I just said to her weakly "can you at least call the nurse". She just walked away with no answer.

I sighed and tried getting up. The more I moved the worse the pain got. After a few minutes I finally was in a standing position against the lockers. I opened my locker and got my bag out. I guess Cheryl didn't get the nurse, so I made my way back to the park with much struggle.I took of my shirt and pants , which left me in my sport bra and briefs (I wear briefs cause I feel more comfortable in them) I got a bottle of rubbing alcohol and poured it all over my cuts.

I screamed in pain and took a rag from my bag and gently rubbed my body to clean the cuts and clean the blood off my body. I put on a pair of sweatpants and put on a navy blue Canadian shirt. I took out my phone and went on Instagram. I saw comments on my recent posts saying I was a slut, whore a bitch and a nasty cheater. I turned off my phone and threw it in my bag. I laid down on the bench and cried myself to sleep.
