Lily's POV.

For the first time, I felt like my strength is connected to his I mean, two is better than one right.

Whenever I try to stand up for myself or BC, I always fail maybe because he doesn't help me.
If only we do it together then maybe those bullies will leave us alone.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"I mean whenever I tried to stop Adrian from hitting you, I always fail and that's because you don't even try to stand up for yourself". I explain

He didn't say anything and I continued.
"Help me to help you then we can help each other."

"We are not even friends why should I listen to you or accept your help".He says looking everywhere else but me.

"We are not?". I questioned.

" I don't know".

"Oh, I thought we are". I spoke, honestly.

He looked at me with hurtful eyes and said.
"No one has ever tried to be my friend here".

"I will be your friend" I told him hopefully.

He searched my face with a bemused expression.

"No, I will always get you into trouble with Adrian".

"You can only get me into trouble if we let him". I said as a smile creeps up to my face.

"No one is a nobody OK, you said that to me, we won't let them hurt us anymore". I added staring at his expressions.

"What can we do?" He asked in a tired voice.

"Fight back" I fist my right hand and punched my left palm with it .

He stared at me for more than a second then his shoulder sag.

"Its hopeless". He commented sounding defeated.

I sigh mentally, I really need to convince him to do this, I cannot give up just yet. I don't want to continue like this.

"Hi, I am lily cruise, can I be your friend?". I extended my hand forward.

His lips part and kept darting his eyes from my face to my hand, he looked worried.

"What do you say?" I asked keeping my smile.

I just want to help him stand for himself, I feel like we could do it together.
If he is finally able to fight back, it only means he can help me fight back too.

He sucked in a breath.
"Kendrick hart, nice to meet you". He shook my hand.

I felt happy but not satisfied.

I cocked a brow at him, he rolled his eyes and continued.
"And yes we can be friends, I guess".

"Yay!" I clapped my hands together in excitement.

"See, I have to go" He tried to stand but winced.

"Hey, careful, you are hurt" I remainded in a worried tone.

"I will be fine" He raised a hand before I could help him stand properly.

He sure doesn't like to accept help very easily.

"OK" I shrug. "See you tomorrow then".

"Tomorrow is a Saturday". He said as if reminding me.

"I know that, I mean see you Tomorrow here".

"For what?" He frowned.

I slapped my forehead
"For a plan".

"What plan?"

"A plan of revenge". My voice laced with excitement.

"Oh, okay". He grin, shaking his head in some kind of disbelief.

I did too
"Goodnight". I waved.

He nod and  started walking with his toes slowly.

At that moment I stopped understanding anything as I stared at his retreating figure, I wonder why his mom let his out of the house in such a condition.

Does his parents even know he's being bullied every single day, I want to help him understand that we don't have to continue like this, we have a choice to fight back and that is what I chose.

I felt happy in fact very happy, this night is literally the best night of my life.

I will make sure they get what's coming for them, they have done enough and I won't let them make me cry anymore.

I skipped back home happily.

"Someone looks happy". Dad commented on my mood.

"I am very happy today dad". I grin goofily.

"What makes you so happy?" He asked also smiling.

"Nothing much, just happy" I shrug and skipped to my room.

I heard him chuckle.

I didn't want to tell him anything just yet and besides when the mean girls and Adrian were busy doing all those bad things to us, no one knew.

Or should I say no one tried helping us even if they are standing right there.

I am also going to make them cry, and no one will help them or stop me.

I hate them.
