Falling For The Girl I Bullied
Chapter 116

Kyle’s P.O.V.

“Hey… over here,” I looked up when someone yelled aloud, gaining my attention. I smiled and looked at Violet, who was standing beside me, and was looking around. I signaled Noah to take her away. “Violet… let’s go there. Dustin and Vivek have secured our seats there. You will see everything clearly from there,” Noah immediately persuaded Violet while pointing towards the direction of Dustin and Vivek. The rest of the boys were also sitting there. She looked up at me. “Uh huh… I’ll be with David and Ethan. I have to discuss something with them. I will be back to you after some time,” I said to her while patting her cheek. She raised her brows but didn’t ask me anything.

“Come,” Noah said as he led her away to the other boys. I looked at David and went near them. “You are late,” David complained in a teasing tone. I glared at him and took the seat near Ethan. Now, Ethan was between him and me. Rein was sitting on the other side of David. “Are you sure that she will be straight in front of us?” I asked Ethan and looked towards the ground. “I am one hundred percent sure, brother,” Ethan answered me in a confident tone. I nodded and then looked toward Violet and the others. She was now sitting with Noah and Vivek. They were talking about something, and she had a small smile on her lips.

“They will perform on the third number,” David informed me, and I nodded. “Are you sure that it will work?” Rein asked this time, and I smirked. “Of course, Rein… it will work… all you need to do is just look at her only,” Ethan answered Rein in a careless tone. I was still looking at my girl. I didn’t know when she would trust me so much that she would say yes to me. I knew that she had trust issues, and she had so many insecurities. She had to overcome them first, and only then will she be mine of her own volition. I knew that I had to be patient with her, but after what happened between us last night, it seemed so hard to stay away from her.

“What happened between you two?” suddenly Ethan asked me in whispers taking me off guard. “Nothing… nothing happened between us. She lied to both Mr. Stammers, and mom, and I confronted her for that,” I told him what the real reason was why I wanted to talk with her. “What did she hide from us?” he asked me in a stern tone this time. I looked at David and Rein, who were looking at us too. I didn’t want to tell them, but they also had the right to know. David was indirectly involved in this case, and Ethan was soon going to be her adopted brother. They must know what the main reason behind her panic attack was this time.

“He tried to molest her but stopped before anything went further. This was when he left her there in anger,” I told them what exactly happened there. Ethan glared at me blankly while blinking hard. Both David and Rein were also stared at me with the same expressions. “She saved him, and that was why, he was saying again and again that he owed her,” David said after a while, and I nodded in agreement. Their faces were cold, and I knew that he wanted to kill Augustus for what he tried to do with Violet. “Sia chose that place because if Augustus wanted to do something bad to Violet, no one would be able to help her,” Rein said in a cold tone.

“Let’s not talk about it or ask her. “She doesn’t need to remind everything again and again,” Ethan said coldly to all of us, knowing that he was boiling with rage inside but trying hard to remain calm right now. ” Rein asked in a bitter tone, and we all looked at him. None of us said anything, but we all agreed with him. It was Sia once again. Augustus didn’t choose that place, and it was Violet’s luck that he didn’t do anything out of line or else…..

I looked back at Violet, who was now laughing at something with the other boys. Her carefree face right now made me smile. Suddenly they announced the event, and we all looked at the court. Everyone around us cheered for the first time which was from the host school. The girls were impressive, and some stunts were really breathtaking. They finished their routine successfully, and we all clapped and cheered for them. I looked back at Violet, and she was also clapping while cheering for them. “I get that you love her, but it doesn’t mean that you have to look at her after like every ten seconds,” Ethan said to me in a teasing tone.

I smiled and craned my neck towards him. “Are you jealous?” I asked him in a teasing tone. He scoffed and made a face. “She is going to be my sister, Kyle. Don’t stay in the illusion that I will not do anything to you if she doesn’t want you near her just because you are my friend. I will everything to keep you away from her,” he replied to me in a stern tone. I was blinked while looking at him in disbelief. What was that? She was still not her sister and he was already possessive over her. “You are my friend first,” I punched his arm while yelling at him, still in a daze.

“So?” he asked me while moving his shoulders up and down, and I just opened my mouth but didn’t come out with anything. “I am already helping you too much,” he stated the obvious and now I was completely sure that he was going to be a headache for me in the future. The announcer announced the entry of the second team, and we all looked back at the court again. I had no interest in the routines of the cheerleading squads but we were here because of a purpose, and I was just waiting for our team to come here. This competition was for the best cheerleading squad trophy. We only had two more days here, and now they were wrapping up the events one by one.

The whole crowd cheered aloud after they finished their routine, and now my eyes were searching for them to come here. I looked back at Violet once again and smiled when I remembered what Ethan said to me earlier. I didn’t know why but I was continuously checking on her when I knew that she was safe with the boys. Still, I was not assured. She was eating chips with them while laughing at something again. “Change the seats, Ethan,” I instructed Ethan suddenly and looked back at him. He looked at me in confusion but stood up from his seat. David and Rein also looked at me in confusion.

“I think this is much better,” I said to David with a meaningful look. He raised brows but smiled wickedly in the end. We all looked at the court again, and the corner of my lips curled up when I saw Sia coming with her team. She had her head held high, proudly, and was looking at the crowd arrogantly. She stopped right in front of us. I smirked when her gaze stopped at us. Both David and I leaned towards our knees while putting our elbows on our knees. She gulped hard in fear and then looked at the girls behind her. Millie asked her what was wrong, and Sia signaled toward us. Millie and two more of her minions also gulped hard in fear when their gazes fell on us.

I was staring at them with a cold gaze without blinking. It was enough to make them scared of us. They looked at each other one more time, before taking their positions. Sia took a deep breath, and then looked at me proudly. She was thinking that I was here for her. She would soon know why I was here. I didn’t break my gaze from her, not even for a second, and narrowed my eyes from time to time. Soon the façade of bravery started slipping from her face. She was still doing well with a fearful gaze, and her eyes were continuously moving between me and David.

She couldn’t move her head or eyes in the other direction because they had to look in our direction. Every point was important because it was their final. I could see the beads of sweat on her forehead. Both I and David straightened our bodies together still with the locked gaze on her. “Boo,” David abruptly moved his hands as if he were pushing her. Sia was on the shoulders of two girls and was about to take a jump in the air when he did this. She screamed in fear and fell down badly to the ground on her back. The whole crowd gasped aloud. Millie and Grace approached her immediately and helped her sit.

Sia yelped in pain when she didn’t move her shoulders and back. I smirked and then looked at David, who was now smiling from ear to ear. We both high-fived and looked back at Sia who was now lying on the ground and was a crying mess. “She got what she sows,” Ethan commented in a cold tone. The corner of my lips curled up again. I looked at Violet once again, and pursed my lips when I saw her looking at me. She knew what we did. She was disappointed, but I was not. She was kind-hearted, and I was sure that she was thinking only about the trophy that we missed in this competition. But I was not like her. I held grudges and could go to any extent to take my revenge. This was my revenge on Sia for throwing Violet in front of a hungry wolf.

“Will you stay or go?” Ethan asked me after they took Sia out of the court. They couldn’t finish their routine, and it was a big blow to Sia. Everyone saw that she lost her footing on her own. It was her own mistake, and she couldn’t give any excuse for this. If she wanted to complete it, she was most welcome, but she has nothing to prove that David or I did anything to make her afraid. It was her own thoughts that messed with her mind. We just played a psychological game with her. “Kyle,” Ethan suddenly called me, and I looked at him questioningly.

“You have to go,” he said and I looked at him in confusion. “Violet… she is going back,” he told me and looked in her direction. I stood up when I saw her going towards the exit. Noah was still with her, and I guess, he was trying to stop her. I sighed and went towards them. I jogged towards them. “You are thinking wrong, princess. They did nothing to her,” I heard Noah telling her something. “I know, Noah. You don’t need to defend them,” she replied to him in a calm tone. “Then why are you angry?” he asked again, looking behind her at me. I signaled him not to say anything about me and kept on walking behind her.

“I am not angry. Why I would be?” she protested, but I could say that she was angry. I didn’t know what I was going to do with this girl. She was not pissed that Sia was hurt. She was angry because our school lost a trophy here. I signaled Noah to go back, and we both swapped our positions. Violet looked at me and was startled by my presence. She looked back but Noah had already walked back. She sighed and resumed walking. I was now walking together. I didn’t ask where she was going. I just followed her. “Why are you following me?” she asked me in an annoying tone, and stopped outside the entrance.

“I am not following you. I am walking with you,” I stated the obvious in a nonchalant tone. She glared at me but didn’t say anything further. She resumed walking again. I smiled and followed her again. “Why did you do that?” she asked me in a low tone while walking towards the other corridor. I didn’t know where she was going right now. “What I did?” I asked her and she glared at me again. “What?” I asked her again in a fake confusing tone. She huffed, and crossed her hands under her breast. I smiled mischievously and scooted near her. She stopped at the end of the corridor. She rested her butts on the side wall. I stopped in front of her. She was still glaring at me, and I was smiling while looking at her.

“You are worried that she is badly injured, huh?” I asked her and she scoffed. “Should I be?” she asked me and this time, I smiled from ear to ear. “This was the first time that she got hurt. What about me? She hurt me so many times in the past. Now she will know the pain,” she said again, and I raised my brows in confusion. “She physically hurt you?” I asked her immediately and she looked at me in confusion. I knew that Sia had been bullying her since middle school, but I never heard that she physically abused Violet.

“Th.. that was at the beginning of middle school. She stopped when a teacher threatened her to expel her. She stopped abusing me physically but found so many other ways to bully me,” she told me while looking in a distance. I chewed on my inner cheeks while looking at her. She smiled weakly and lowered her head. “This is the first time that I saw her screaming in pain. It’s just… we … we missed this trophy,” she said in a sad tone. I sighed and shook my head a little helplessly. “We did nothing with her. It was her own fault that she fell down,” I told her and she gave me a knowing look.

“Let’s go… it’s already lunchtime. After that you have to go to the football match,” I said while looking at the watch. She sighed and hung her head low. “What’s wrong?” I asked her immediately. She was about to answer me when my phone started ringing. I took my phone out of my pocket and looked at the caller ID. “It’s Mr. Stammers,” I told her and picked up the phone. “Where are you, Kyle?” he asked me in a hurried tone. “I am near the cafeteria, Mr. Stammers,” I told him about my whereabouts. “Is Violet with you?” he asked me again, and I raised my brows.

“Yes, Mr. Stammers… she is with me,” I replied to him briefly again. “Sia is hurt, and we are taking her to the hospital. Sia asked for Violet to accompany her,” he told me and I huffed. “Actually, Mr. Stammers… I was about to call you. Violet… she is not feeling well. “I lied to him because I didn’t want Violet to go with Sia. “I took her here to get her juice, and then I’d take her back to our room so she could rest for a while,” I said. Violet looked at me in confusion. I pulled her towards me by wrapping my hand around the back of her head. She didn’t protest and put her head on my chest while clutching the hem of my t-shirt on either side. “Is she okay? We can take her with us to the hospital if she is not feeling well,” he immediately asked me in a worried tone.

“You know her, Mr. Stammers. Yesterday’s incident is still fresh in her mind. She is acting brave, but we all know how fragile she is. I think, she will be okay after she sleeps for a few hours,” I mocked Violet, and she hit on my chest lightly. “Okay… inform me if she doesn’t feel well,” he said to me, and then cut the call. I sighed and cursed Sia internally. She was hurt yet she had the audacity to replace a way to torment Violet. “What happened?” she asked me without lifting her head from my chest. “She wants you to accompany her to the hospital,” I told her truthfully. She looked up this time in confusion.

“You don’t need to worry. I am not going to let you go with her,” I told her and put her head on my chest again. I guess I had to visit her before she went to the hospital. “Let’s go. I have to buy juice for you. Remember… you are not well,” I said to her in a teasing tone. She frowned and slowly raised her head from my chest. “I am hungry too,” she pouted and I nodded. “Okay.. then let’s eat first,” I replied to her, and then we both walked towards the cafeteria. I called Ethan while walking towards the cafeteria. He told me that they were also coming to have lunch. I decided to go during lunch.

“You are going to see her?” suddenly she asked me in a low tone. “I am thinking so. Why did you ask?” I answered her and then asked her too. “Uhhh… it’s nothing,” she answered me without looking at me. “Now what’s in your empty mind, huh?” I asked her in a teasing tone, but I was serious right now. She looked at me this time and smiled faintly. “Nothing… she is hurt.. you should go to see her,” she replied to me in a flat but sad tone and I smiled mischievously this time. I couldn’t believe that she is jealous right now. I wrapped my hand around her shoulder and pulled her closer to me. I leaned down a little. “Don’t worry, love… you are the only one who has my heart,” I whispered to her and her eyes immediately widened.

I laughed while squeezing her shoulder gently when she turned red. She looked in the other direction to hide her face, and I laughed harder this time. I was so happy. Something had really changed, and I was loving this change. She started opening herself to me, and this was the biggest change. I stopped laughing when I saw everyone coming towards us from the other direction. She asked Ethan about the cheerleading squad competition. He answered her and told her that it was East-West High that won this time. I had no interest in the result. “I think we have to pay a visit to Sia. She asked Mr. Stammers to call Violet so that Violet could accompany her to the hospital,” I told David in a low tone when Violet was busy talking with Ethan.

“Let’s go then. I am also worried for my ex-girlfriend, you know,” David replied with fake worry. I smiled slyly this time. I left Violet near our table. I told Ethan where I was going, and also the reason. He huffed angrily but tried to control himself. I also told him what lie I told to Mr. Stammers. I asked him to keep food for me and David before leaving them there. Violet looked at me, and I passed an assuring smile to her before walking out to meet our victim. That girl was now asking for a scolding too.
