The New Girl

chapter 32

Lucy's pov

With lessons going past quickly, we got to science for the exam before walking in I felt a hand on my arm, "we need to talk" I turn to see Roxy holding on to my arm, "look we have an exam and I have nothing to say to you" I say trying to brush her hand of me but her grip gets tighter, "no let me reword this, I need to talk to you and you need to listen..." she said I turned back around leaning closer so only she could hear, "look there is nothing for you to say, my brother dumped your ass, and Toni knows everything..." I say as I watch her face drop, she steps forward, "does she really, does she really know everything..." she says with a smirk on her face, she steps back and walks away from me into the class, I stand frozen trying to think of what else she could possibly know about me "miss flowers... miss flowers... Lucy..." I turn around to see Mr Jenkins waiting for me to come in, I walk faster into the lesson as all eyes are on me, I look and see Toni sat at the back she looked up and smiled at me, when I saw Roxy sitting at the front smirking at me, I walked past her to the free space next to Toni.

"so class you have an exam today take one and pass it on..." Mr Jenkins said passing a load of papers to the people at the front, when I felt Toni lean across the desk, "hey are you okay, you look a bit white" she says I turn to her and smile, "yeah I'm fine, nothing to worry about..." I say as she turns to take the papers from the person in front "... I hope" I whisper to myself, it was half way through the exam when I felt someone was staring at me, I looked up to see Roxy staring at me with a smirk, she turned and started to write something on a piece of paper, she then passed it to the person behind her, working its way up to Toni I couldn't take my eyes of her when she opened the note her face dropped, without saying a word she got up and walked out, "miss Cortez where are you going?" said Mr Jenkins, I watched as she ignored him and carried on walking past the windows of the class, I turned to Roxy smirking at me, I got up and jogged out the room to find her I caught up to her walking into the bathroom that was closest, I let her go in when I heard a bang, I ran in to see her sat on the floor with her knees up and her head in her hands crying, "Toni..." I said as I stepped closer, she looked up at me and cried harder, "what's happened?" I said as I crouched in front of her placing my hands on her knees, she passed me the bit of paper I hesitated as I took it from her hand, I opened the note reading "everyone knows you're a dyke – R <3 X" it said I scrunched it up into a ball in my hand, "give me a minute I'm going to be right back" I said as I placed a kiss on her knuckles.

I got up and started to walk out when I heard a muffled, "where are you going?" I turned to her and smiled, "I'm going to teach that bitch a lesson" I said as I walked out the door slamming it behind me, I saw red as I walked down the corridor, James and Ellie came out as I turned the corner, "where is she?" they said, I pointed down the corridor, "toilets..." I said as I pushed past them, I saw Roxy still sat at her desk as I came to the windows, I felt eyes on me when I slammed the door open walking straight up to Roxy, I picked her up from the cuff of her top taking her out of her seat, I dragged her out into the corridor and pinned her against the wall, "you have nothing on me, and if you dare try and hurt her again I will ruin you..." I said slamming her against the wall, her face looked petrified, I let go of her as the class rushed to the window I could start to hear people chant, "fight... fight... fight..." I started to walk away when I felt my hair be pulled down, then I felt the person let go, I turned around to see Roxy on the floor and Ellie standing next to her grinning, "I've always wanted to do that" she said, I smiled back and walked over to Roxy on the floor, "leave us alone or next time it will be a lot worse" I said as she grabs her face in pain, we walk off before any teachers could get us, we run back to Toni and James in the toilets, we all sit on the floor as Ellie got excited about what had just happened making Toni laugh, "god if only I was there" she said smiling, I placed my head on her shoulder and she placed her head on top of mine.
