Chapter 2

                                    

                                          
The thumps were getting louder and louder by the second. I wonder if they are doing it purposely, but I just shrug it off and continue to doodle.
                          
Shadows covered my piece of paper as the sound of dragged chairs starts to ring my ears. 
                          
Are they sitting close to me? I hope not.
                          
Whispers started to erupt in the class as whispers becomes to talking. I slowly bite my lower lip.
                          
Please go away. Just go, please.
                          
"Quiet down class." 
                          
The class starts to stop talking completely. 
                          
I bend over, even more, trying to hide as I see the legs of the three guys. One on my left, one in front of me and the other one diagonal to me. I shut my eyes tightly hoping that this isn't really happening to me.
                          
The talk of the school is sitting so close to me when there are so many other empty seats in the class.
                          
"Dylan, why are you sitting there? Come sit with us here." 
                          
" Why? I quite like it here. Right guys?" The loud voice says. 
                          
"Yeah, it is great here! Right, Gray?" An energetic voice says.
                          
Everything is going to be harder from this point on. With these people sitting close to me. I hope they would just leave. So please don't talk to me. Just, please. I don't need more trouble in my life.
                          
"Okay, class dismiss." Mr. Shawn says as he walks out of the class. I grab my books, running out of the class before people start to trip me on the way to my Biology class but to my dismay, I hit someone's back and fall to the ground as the class's tables are shoved to the sides because of my fall. 
                          
Before I even get out of this class. Really? Is my luck really that bad today? I shouldn't have came to class.
                          
" Sorry I wasn't looking. I shouldn't have stopped." The energetic guy says as a hand is placed in front of my face. I stare at it in shock not knowing what to do. 
                          
"Oh look Alice the Lice has fallen on her big ass." Steve announces to the class, laughing as the class laughs while pointing. 
                          
I bite my lip again as I grab my books tightly and run out of class, almost falling again as I am being shoved all around by random people.
                          
"And that is all class, thank you. Remember to hand in your homework before leaving for lunch." I grab my things and head to the library as quickly as possible, avoiding the legs that were out just to trip me. 
                          
I put on my earphones as I look for a new book to read. I walk to my favorite corner where no one goes to and start to relax myself by reading.
                          
"Is this place taken?" I jump a little, looking up to see a tall guy with slightly curled light brown hair looking straight at me. He isn't smiling nor does he look angry.
                          
I shake my head as I look down at my book. I try to ignore the sound of the bean bag being moved as he sits on it.
                          
I don't look at him as I don't want to bring myself trouble. He looks like someone who would be very popular in this school as he has the looks and the height. I look up a little from my book, to see his peaceful face. His front curls close just right above his thick yet beautiful eyebrows. 
                          
I start to stare at him without even noticing how long I have been staring at him. Then, he opens his eyes, looking straight at me. I jump a little as I quickly turn to my book, covering my face with the book as I feel my ears heat up. 
                          
"You don't have to hide. I don't really care." He says in a monotone voice as he gets up and leaves just as the bell rings. 
                          
Well, that was embarrassing. 
                          
I close my book and place it back to where I took it and walked to my next class. 
                          
The last bell finally rings as I get out of my Mathematics class. Looking around to see if the coast is clear. Wouldn't want to bump into any of those bullies. 
                          
"Hey Lice, stop being so annoying will you? You're such a bitch. Can you just go away?" I bite my lower lip as Cassey continues to complain. 
                          
Everyone was looking at me. Cassey and her friends start to push me, making me drop to the ground, knocking my head on the desks that are at the front of the class. 
                          
"Is little Lice going to cry?" Kate says as she kicks my legs.
                          
"Oh look her ears are so red. She's going to cry soon maybe even cry to her parents." Levi says as Kate giggles with her.
                          
"As if her parents would care about her." Cassey says as she giggles with them. 
                          
People start to take pictures of me on the ground as I grip onto my bag tightly, getting up to walk out of the door only to be pushed by Kate and Levi again. Cassey laughs as she shuts the door and locks the door, leaving me in the classroom all alone. 
                          
"Buh bye Lice." Cassey says as I hear the sound of her heels go softer. 
                          
I'm now stuck in the classroom, alone. I have to pick up Darren today. I don't want to leave him alone in his daycare center. I'm the worst sister ever.
                          
I try to push the door but the door was completely sealed from the outside. They must have put an object below the handle making it impossible to open the door. 
                          
This has never happened before. Did I do something wrong? I don't think so. 
                          
Then it clicked.
                          
It's the guys who sat with me in class. They are the reason why the bullying is getting worse than before.
