"Scarlet?" I heard a familiar voice ask. It was Belle. She crawled underneath the stall and gave me a big hug. "Hey, don't worry about him...he's just trying to get you back, come on it's time for lunch. Hold your head high and don't give Mark and ounce of your attention, he doesn't deserve it." Belle stated while helping me get up.
What would I do without her, she's literally my arms and legs. "Thanks Belle." I said hugging her back. She handed me a makeup wipe and I gladly took it and whipped the mascara that had covered my cheeks.
We walked out together and were greeted with the stares of questioning classmates. I wanted to flip them off but decided against it, after all I would be doing the same thing.
We turned the corner and I was greeted by a smiling Devon who offered me his arm, I gladly took it. With all that was going on right now, I really needed an arm to hold.
Belle smiled and gave me the eye. "I'll leave you two to it then..." She chuckled and went to our usual table. Devon and I walked to the lunch line, I grabbed a salad and a sprite. He got a ham sandwhich and a red bull...typical guy food.
I laughed at his little move on the food. And he gave me a questioning look. I just shook my head because he wouldn't understand it. We found a table that had nobody at it and sat down. He immediately dug into his food while I looked around.
Mark, was getting his lunch...he probabally hadn't noticed me yet, because if he did he would be over here in a jiffy.
I looked around, about 40% of the high school was staring at me. Wow...that's what you get from an overprotective boyfriend-ex boyfriend, that tells your whole biology class that you are going to die. Thanks Mark.
"Hey, Scar, you okay?" Devon asked, worry clear in his eyes. "Hmm?" I asked oblivious that he was worried. "Scar!" He said a little more sternly. "Oh, yes, I'm fine! Sorry...just a little...uh...well...not used to all of this attention, you know?" I said.
"Yeah, I understand the feeling." He said.
All of the sudden, the schools bully, Gwendolyn Tatorfall came up to me. And knew this wasn't going to be good. She was tall, not to mention at least 150 pounds over weight. She wore a tight fitting t-shirt with skin tight leggings that made her look at least 50 pounds larger. She wore short her hair in pigtails and had glasses smudged into her face.
She laughed a low laugh and said quite loudly (for the whole high school to hear), "Hey Scar, I'll have to stay far away from you, I don't want to catch brain cancer and be as bald as Mr. Roberts after chemo treatment!" She snorted. And soon the whole cafeteria was howling and laughing.
The people who were close to me scooted away from me and tried to keep their distance. My face went red and I turned away from her towards Devon. He got up almost immediately, "Hey, Gwendolyn why don't you go waddle off and eat something." He said smirking an evil grin at her.
She was very embarrassed, this statement coming from one of the hottest guys at school was a MAJOR put down. "Oh, hey Devon, I-I didn't see you there." She stuttered her face bright pink. But then she gained her composure back. "Aw, poor Devon..." She started, looking around at all the people beckoning her on, to finish what she started. "It seems as if you've already caught it because your brain is transmitting signals to your mouth to protect her, you two can be baldies together." She snorted, everyone laughing and chanting, "BALDIES, BALDIES, BALDIES..."
I dared a look at Devon and he was giving me a worried look. I put my hands over my ears to try and block out the sound, not only was she hurting me but me friends too. I single tear fell from my face, I was giving in.
"Look, she's crying, what a b-a-b-y!" Gwendolyn yelled at me. I could feel her smelly hot breath in my ear. And then she grabbed me by my hair and slammed me into the floor, making my head slam against the floor. My vision was getting blurry, tears stung my eyes. Devon tried fighting her but it was no use.
Now everybody had made a circle around me, Devon, and Gwendolyn. They were cheering her on. Gwendolyn turned me over with her foot and started kicking me in the stomach. I felt like I was going to throw up. I could barely see and my head was throbbing.
I then got into the fetal position. I saw Devon pinning her arms behind her back and then she gave him a huge kick in the stomach, he fell backwards into the table. She kicked me in the back, the head, on my legs and in my stomach.
All of a sudden the cafeteria went silent as Mark walked in, unaware of what was happening. My head started to spin and the last thing I saw was him landing a huge punch into her stomach, Belle gripping my face in her hands, and being swept into the air by strong muscular arms, yet again.
