Obsession

2. Bullied

You know what's worse then failing grades and having only one friend? Being bullied pretty much every single day. I texted Syndir wondering why she wasn't at her locker today and a few seconds later she replied that she wasn't feeling so well so she had to stay home from school. You've got to be kidding me!! She's my only friend and protection! Without her I'm just a scared 6 year old lost in a high school. I mean I know how to stand up for myself but in certain situations. Whenever she's with me Austin and his group of douche's stay away cause they know how tough she is. I never really asked her how she learned these skills but it's not my problem. Without her i'm screwed as fu-

"Hey Violet!" I recognized that obnoxious voice making me widen my eyes. Austin!...

I began picking up speed with my walking and tried blending in with some crowds but unfortunately I chose the wrong group.

"Oh look who it is guys! Our BEST friend Violet!" Great. Austin's little gang. Just what I needed.

"Where's your friend huh? Having fun with some guy in the bathroom?!"

"She's not a whore you dick!!"

"Shut up!!" One of the guys I know as David pushes me hard against a locker.

"Maybe slapping and yelling at you won't be enough..." Austin comes up to me and puts on one of the creepiest smiles I've ever seen plastered on someone's face and it could only mean one thing...

"What do you guys think?" He turns to face the group who are all staring at me nodding slowly at him. Crap Crap Crap!! My eyes find Austin's face again but now he's stepped away having Kate step up and spit on my face. Nasty son of a-!

"You know Violet. Coming to school everyday acting as if your the hottest bitch in the world isn't gonna get you anywhere." She grabs my hair and yanks my head forward and then backwards against the lockers. I let out a painful squeal making me sound like a freaking baby. Way to go Violet! I grab my head trying my hardest not to cry in front of them.

"Next time you should watch who you try hooking up with!"

"I told you already! I didn't do anything with him! He came onto me!"

"Oh yeah cause someone would find you attractive!" She laughed in my face grabbing my chin to have me look at her.

"You know what your problem is? You try to hard Violet. You act as if putting on pretty clothe and make-up will fix your appearance and allow you to "fit in" But guess what? It won't. This is reality. " She slapped me across my face making me turn my face from the impact. The back of my head hurt like hell and my cheek ached. Who says I need Syndir?! I've had enough of this!

I don't know where I got the courage from but I did. "You know Veronica... Acting like a slut without the slightest little clue that you actually look like you got hit by a bus isn't gonna get you any-" I got cut off by David hitting me straight in the stomach knocking the air right out of me. Holy-!!!! Mother freaking dog that hurt!!

"Watch that mouth of yours Violet!" Veronica said in a threatening tone before grabbing me by my shoulders and throwing me down to the ground. Now there was a full on crowd forming around us and of course they just had to be taking pictures and recording the scene playing out in front of them. I don't know what's worse, the pain shooting through my body or being humiliated in front of everyone.

I felt my eyes get watery and I really didn't want to be even more embarrassed and disrespected then I already was so once I began to pick myself up I tried looking for an easy escape route towards the nearest bathroom. Once I found one I took in a deep breath and ran as fast as I could ignoring Austin and Veronica yelling things at me and having everyone laugh at me. I couldn't hold back the tears that were threatening to spill so I tried blinking a few times picking up my pace but bumping into someone sending me flying back. I closed my eyes and braced for the impact of me falling but it never came. What in the?... I opened my eyes slowly and noticed some arms wrapped around my waist. So someone saved me looking like this!? Oh God I must look like one of those freaks!! My eyes landed back at the arms wrapped around me and obviously my eyes slowly trailed up his biceps and up his neck towards his face.

If you ever told me that I was going to meet my Prince Charming like this, I probably would've laughed in your face.
