My Bully(Zion Kuwonu/PRETTYMUCH)

11.

July finally found the courage to take herself home, she was so grateful that Brandon wasn't like the rest of them. It left her almost confused as to how these boys that had hassled her for years, were just able to see sense and stop out of nowhere. Maybe the boobs she had developed were enough to hypnotise them.
"Thanks for letting me borrow your clothes, I would've been pretty cold in just your t-shirt" The girl said as they sat parked outside of her home.
"No problem." The boy have her a small smile as he open his door and walked around to July's side and opened her door.
Meanwhile her mum decided to get up and walk to the window to see if it was her daughter .
July and Brandon went from trying to shake hands to hugging each-other tightly. July pecked Brandon on the lips as they pulled away from the hug, he pulled her in closer, and she didn't stop him as they began to make out, of course July found him attractive and appreciated his help, but she didn't completely trust that he really was different from the others so she assumed there would be rumours running around about the kiss by the next day. She hoped there would be anyway, she wanted to make Zion angry.

July's mum gasped slightly, as she walked away from the window, it was completely unlike her daughter to act in such a way, it didn't seem sweet or romantic, her daughter seemed desperate.

The sound of footsteps could be heard as July finally entered the flat. She peeked her head into her mums room to see her mum sat on her chair reading a book, she gave her mum a small smile, until she glanced at the bed to see Zion's dread-head poking out of the covers. Before her mum could even begin to reprimand her for making her worry July stormed into the room and balled her fists up swinging at Zion. Both females in the room jumped slightly as the room was filled with a deep fearful scream. July's face remained screwed up slightly as she glared at the boy that was now sat up. Moments of confusion flashed through her harsh expression as she stared the boy down, who was desperately trying to catch his breath.
" Why are you here!?" July spoke as she brought her face close to Zions.
"Get out, get out!!" July continued.
"Don't, he's going through something, and he has nowhere else to go. Don't you see? He almost had a panic attack, you need to relax July!" July's mum surprisingly shouted.
"Why? I don't-" July Paused to answer her phone.
"Hey, that was quick. No I'm not, you wouldn't believe me, I saw the one person I didn't want to see when I came in...yeaaahhhh" July spoke looking up to see two different glares coming towards her . She rolled her eyes at both of them and walked away to her room. Zion felt like his whole body was aching but he got up and followed the girl, against Mama king's instructions. She thought it would be best for July to calm down, she wanted to comfort her child, especially after seeing her all bruised up, but she wasn't really being herself.
————————
"Listen I'm gonna go, thank you for everything, I'll see you at school." July said with a soft smile, her expression Changed as soon as she looked up at Zion who was standing at the doorway.
"What happened to your face?" The pair of them said in unison. July sighed slightly.
"What do you think happened? Who could of possibly done this to me?" July said in a sarcastic tone.
"I'll beat every single one of their asses, I promise, I'm sorry for walking out like that."
"You don't get it that's not why I'm mad." July answered.
"I took a second to realise that you-"

"Wait! What's that? Wait, wait, wait...where did you go today? You weren't at school were you?" He glanced at July's neck and then looked her up and down.
"It's not your business!"
"I was too busy staring at those fucking bruises on your face to realise, whose clothes your wearing."
"Ok great, now get out of my room."
"July?"
"What?" The girl rolled her eyes.
"Did you hook up with Brandon? Please tell me you didn't."
"I promise you, I will hit you if you don't get out of my room."
"What happened? Tell me...because you're not acting like yourself, I don't know who this is but it's really not you."
"What would you do if Brandon fucked me though?" July asked with a malicious smirk on her face.
"He wouldn't dare, no one would dare!" He said with his nostrils flared and his began to turn a light shade of red.
"Why would you ask me and then insist that wouldn't happen?"
"July I-"
"What happened to your face?" July interrupted
"I doesn't matter." He answered quickly.
"Ok next question, why are you such a fucking bully? Why did you make it your mission to scare everyone away from me? Why would you bully your own friend for liking me? What exactly would you do to Brandon if he did fuck me?" July spoke as she stood up and walked up to Zion
"I'm not answering your fucking questions." Zion answered closing July's door.
"Stop acting like a brat, talk to me, with respect, so I can understand your point." Zion spoke as he backed July up to the nearest wall blocking her in. July tried to look away but Zion used one hand to turn her face back towards him. She gazed upwards towards him since he towered over her and gulped.
"I'm hurt, I'm confused, I'm angry, and I...I don't know."
"Tell me why?" He answered.
"Everything you and you're friends have said and done to me still affects me now, I don't feel like I'm worthy of anything or anyone, and then to find out I'm not unlikable, but you never wanted me to realise it." She answered him tearing up.
"July we were younger then, and Brandon isn't a bad guy, neither am I, he's naive though, Edwin will get into his head and he will hurt you."
"Being younger isn't a good excuse you know...I didn't bully anybody, I was never rude to anybody back then, I shouldn't even want anything to do with either of you, but I'm a forgiving person I guess. And you were the ringleader so why would you put this on Edwin"
"I wasn't really, I picked on you because you rejected me, and they continued to do it, I just never stopped them, and I kept the whole tough guy act up. Edwins crazy...trust me."
"Rejected you, when the fuck did I reject you?" July said with wide eyes.
"You said you didn't want to go on a date with me."
"Are you serious, years of fucking torture for saying no to you?"
"I know it's dumb, I'm sorry...and thank you for making realise how much of a idiot I am."
"I don't know why I agreed to tutor you, we haven't even had one tutoring session I've had so much time off work. You're tearing my life apart even more then before."
"You're worth a lot you know. You're really special, and any guy would be lucky to have you." Zion answered as he caressed July's cheek.
July nuzzled into his hand slightly before opening her eyes.
"That has nothing to do with what I just said."
"You said it before...you said you aren't  worthy of anyone or anything " He answered.
He crouched down picked July up, she squealed lightly in surprise, he took a few steps to sit on the bed, July was straddling his waist, He leaned towards her in an attempt to kiss her. July turned her head away causing Zion to sigh.
"I'm wearing Brandon's clothes, I just kissed him Zion." She scoffed lightly.
"I just want to kiss you once, I've been thinking about those lips every single day for years. I know I'm never gonna 'get the girl' or whatever, but I just..." he trailed off
"You won't do anything to Brandon if I decide to go on a date with him or anything?"
"I promise, but if you need a side nigga I'm here." He said with a chuckle whilst July slapped his chest lightly in response.she got off the boys lap which caused him to pout.
"Close your eyes so I can get changed." July practically mumbled.

"I don't want to."
