Falling For The Girl I Bullied
Chapter 117

Sia’s P.O.V.

“She is lying,” I gritted my teeth while wincing in pain. “Still we can’t force her. She is also a student like you, Sia. She is not responsible for you,” Mrs. Stone said in a cold tone, and I just looked at her angrily. She scoffed and then walked out of the infirmary room. “You shouldn’t have asked for her. You are creating more trouble for you, Sia,” Grace warned me again, and I glared at her. She sighed in disappointment and then looked at Millie. I closed my eyes and tried to control my anger. This competition was important for me to win. David knew about this, but still he did this to me. I won’t forgive him for what he did today. He teamed up with Kyle, and Ethan to make me scared, and I ruined everything for myself.

“Let’s go,” I opened my eyes again when I heard Mr. Stammers’ voice. He was standing near the door while looking at me. Millie and Grace came near to me and helped me get off the bed. According to the nurse here, I had dislocated my right shoulder, and there was a heavy swelling in my lower back. She requested an x-ray of my shoulder, and a scan of my back to see the seriousness of my injuries. I hit the floor with my back first, and then my shoulders hit the floor. I yelped in pain when I tried to stand up straight. “Do you want me to help you?” Mr. Stammers asked me in a concerned tone. I felt disgusted by the mere idea of him touching me, but I had no choice right now. There was a time when the boys were ready to do anything to come closer to me. Today, no one came to help me when I was lying there. My team helped me, and somehow managed to bring me here, to the infirmary.

“Please, Mr. Stammers,” I asked him in a painful voice. He nodded and then came near to me. “Put your left hand around my neck, and held me tight, Sia. I will wrap my hand around your waist. Is that okay with you?” he instructed me and I nodded. I knew why he was doing this. It would be inappropriate for a male teacher to touch a female student without her consent. So, he was telling me what he was going to do so that I could give my consent to him. He was my father’s best friend. Still, he didn’t trust me. He did the same thing, and held me in his side embrace gently by my waist. I wobbled in his embrace because I was not able to feel my legs. I yelped again. “Be careful,” he instructed me in a worried tone while holding me tightly.

I rolled my eyes in frustration. He could carry me in bridal style, and that would be less painful for me. I slowly walked with him out of the room. Millie and Grace were walking beside me. The nurse had put the right hand in a pouch to restrict the movements. Still the pain was now killing me. I g*****d again when I found that I had to walk more as we needed to cross two corridors to get out of the building. This was the worst day of my life. I was happy when I saw Kyle sitting right there in front of my eyes, but was startled when I saw David, and Ethan sitting beside him on either side. I was sure that they were up to something when both of them glued their cold gazes on me.

I still was not able to believe that David made that gesture when I was about to take a leap in the air while standing over Percy and Millie’s shoulders. He knew that it was a risky stunt, and I could be hurt if anything went wrong. Still he did that, and as a result, I was now limping badly while not being able to use my lower limb properly. I knew that he had taken his revenge on me. I once told him that I desperately wanted to win this trophy. It would help me in getting a spot in the college cheerleading squad. I wanted to go to the nationals but he ruined everything. I felt tears in my eyes but I blinked harder to keep them back in my eyes. The pain and humiliation that I felt because of them were more than I could tolerate.

“Good afternoon, Mr. Stammers,” I was startled when I heard David’s sweet voice behind us. “Why you two are here, huh?” Mr. Stammers immediately asked them after looking behind us once. I also looked behind and my eyes widened in shock when I saw Kyle walking next to David. Why was he here now? “You told me that she wanted Violet to accompany her to the hospital. So, I came here to tell her something Mr. Stammers,” Kyle replied to Mr. Stammers. My heart was now hammering hard in my chest. “Not now, Kyle… she is really in pain,” Mr. Stammers immediately warned him in a stern tone.

Kyle came in front of us and blocked our path. “Kyle,” Mr. Stammers called his name angrily. “Nothing bad will happen to her, Mr. Stammers if there is a delay of one or two minutes,” Kyle answered Mr. Stammers in a casual way while smirking hard. I looked at him with a painful gaze. I loved him so much. He should have been with me, helping me this time, but he was the reason that I was in this condition. Mr. Stammers huffed and closed his eyes to suppress his anger. David also came in front of us and put his hand on Kyle’s shoulder while looking at me with a nasty smile.

“We can talk later, Kyle. She has to go to the hospital,” Mr. Stammers once again requested him to step aside so that we could go. I was now feeling breathlessness. “Where is Violet, Kyle?” Mr. Stammers asked him in a calm tone. “She is eating her lunch right now, and after that, she will go back to the room to rest,” he informed Mr. Stammers, and I felt my b***d boiling inside my veins. Everyone was worried about that b***h. “Why did you do this to me?” I asked David in a painful voice.

His eyes widened immediately and he faked a horror expression on his face. “What are you saying? What I did to you?” he immediately asked me in a shocked tone. “It was you who made me fall,” I gritted my teeth while blaming him. “What? What are you talking about, Sia? How could you blame me for your actions?” he almost yelled at me while faking shock again. Kyle also smirked with a disgusting expression on his face. It hurt a lot to see the person you love the most look at you with disgust and hatred. Mr. Stammers also sighed in disappointment and shook his head. I knew that no one would believe me, but I was also surprised to see that David refused clearly.

“You…. You two were sitting there… right in front of my eyes… you… you two,” I tried to yell but winced in pain once again. “Enough…. Kyle, David… move,” Mr. Stammers interrupted me, and asked both of them to move away. “Why did you ask for Violet? If I remembered clearly, she is not a friend with you?” Kyle asked me in a cold tone, completely ignoring Mr. Stammers command. “Why can’t I ask for her? She can be a slave for all of you, but I can’t ask a single task, huh?” I immediately asked him back in a bitter tone. He scoffed and then looked at Millie and Grace. “Slave? O My… Sia… in which era you are?” David asked me once again faking a shocked expression.

“This is what she thought about you when she was your girlfriend, David,” Kyle taunted me, and I felt my body trembling due to anger. “She is my girlfriend, Sia, and I love her so much. For me, she is the person whom I want to take care, and give her all my love. This is the last time that I am warning you to stay away from her. Don’t think too highly of yourself, as the whole world revolves only around you,” Kyle scolded me once again due to that b***h. “Kyle… that’s enough now,” Mr. Stammers screamed at him this time. Kyle had put his hands in his pockets, but I could see that he was fuming in anger now. He had masked his expression, but I knew him better.

David dragged him away from us while looking at me with hatred and disgust. Mr. Stammers almost dragged me harshly towards the end of the corridor. I didn’t know what I was going to do with them, but I had to do something to get even with David. He knew me very well, still, he dared to mess with me, and my dreams. For Kyle and Violet, I will see them later. I yelped in pain again when Mr. Stammers tried to move my body in another direction. “What are you thinking, girl? Focus on yourself,” he yelled at me angrily this time. I glared at him but said nothing.

David’s P.O.V.

I watched Mr. Stammer taking her away from us. I wanted to say some more things to her but resisted because this was still not the time. I couldn’t believe I used to be in a relationship with this girl. I agree that she was available to me anytime, I wanted to have s*x, yet it disgusts me now that I ever touched this girl. She was nothing but trash of a person. “Let’s go… you have a match to win now,” Kyle urged me and I nodded. I took a deep breath, and then we both started walking in the other direction. “What do you think? Did she get her lesson?” Kyle asked me in a serious tone. “I don’t think so,” I replied, honestly expressing my feelings. “I felt that too. She tried hard to play the victim card,” he replied to me in the same tone.

“Forget about her for the moment. We have other worries than her to think about,” I asked him, not to think about Sia right now. He sighed but said nothing this time. “Tell me how far you reach to pursue Violet?” I asked him in a light tone. He looked at me blankly, and then looked in front of him again. “Don’t tell me that you are still wooing her?” I asked him in surprise. “This is not the case now, but the fort built around her heart is not easy to break,” he replied to me in the same tone, but I could feel his helplessness here. “What happened between you two when you two were alone in the room after coming back from the hospital?” I asked him in a teasing tone this time. He smiled but didn’t answer me.

“You know, I am waiting for your answer,” I asked him in an impatient tone this time. “Nothing happened between us, David. I only scolded her for being so stupid,” he tried to shrug me off but a light hint of blush on his face was enough to tell me that there was some progress between them. To be honest, I was jealous of him. He had the trust of a person who had trust issues. I knew that Violet likes him too, and sooner or later, she would accept her feelings for him. Still I was jealous of him because of Violet. Just like other boys, I also think that I had wasted my time going behind a girl like Sia instead of noticing Violet. Violet was a far better person and a lovely personality. Despite what we did to her in the past, she not only forgave us, but was also helping us in every possible way to get back what we had earlier. None of them knew the real reason why she came back here from the hospital, but I knew.

“She is analyzing other teams for you guys, right?” suddenly Kyle asked me in a low tone, and I looked at him in surprise. I was dumbfounded because this was the real reason that she wanted to come back here. He chuckled at my reaction. “She told you?” I asked him in a surprised tone. He shook his head negatively. “I saw her notebook and notes on her phone. Today’s match with Springdale is crucial for you, and she has done a lot of research on this team,” he informed me and I just stared at him in shock. “I know her, David. After getting a severe panic attack like that, she knows that she has to rest. Instead, she chose to return, so she must have a compelling reason to do so,” he explained how he came up with the idea.

I chuckled dryly and looked in front of me. “What?” he asked me in a light tone. “I’m jealous of you two, you know,” I said flatly, and a faint smile appeared on my lips as I looked at him. He raised his brows at him. “I am telling you the truth, Knight. You two don’t need words to communicate with each other, and this made me jealous of you two. You two have strong chemistry, and also a better understanding than any other couple around us. You two are not in puppy love, but your relationship has a strong base,” I explained further. He scoffed bitterly. “Don’t forget that I used to bully her,” he said in a bitter tone, and I chuckled. “I didn’t forget that, and I also didn’t forget that you used to threaten all the boys who tried to go near her,” I commented in a teasing tone.

He pursed his lips first but smiled while shaking his head. I laughed at his reaction because it was really fun to see him smiling like this. He was known as an iceberg among the boys because he was a master in masking his emotions and keeping his face cold. We both walked inside the cafeteria together. I saw Violet’s face lit up when she saw Kyle. The pang of jealousy hit my chest again, but I gulped down everything. I had her friendship now, and this was enough for me. I was happy that she was now opening up to all of us bit by bit. When we promised her that we would keep her safe, that was not a spur of the moment, but we were all serious, at least, I was serious about my promise to her. I didn’t know what was going to happen to us in the future, but I wanted this friendship to last long.

“How is she?” Violet asked me, and I narrowed my eyes on her. “For God’s sake, Violet… she doesn’t deserve your sympathy,” I chastised her for her generosity. “Who said that I am feeling sympathy for her?” she asked me while shrinking my nose in confusion. I jerked my head and looked at Kyle. He shrugged his shoulders and sat down beside her on the other side. I scratched the back of my head but took a spoonful of macaroni from her bowl. “We have midterms in twenty days, and I’m only worried about her exams,” Violet said again, and I choked on my food.

I looked at her in disbelief, and she looked at me with a calm gaze. “God, Violet… we are eating,” Dustin muttered angrily while looking at her angrily this time. “What?” she asked him in confusion, and I sighed aloud helplessly. Only Violet Carter could think about study and exams, even during her meals. “Don’t mind her, Dustin… don’t forget what title she carries,” Kyle commented on her in a teasing tone. She huffed and glared at him. He tilted his head towards him while looking at her teasingly. “A nerd,” I called the title in a loud tone, and everyone around us laughed. She huffed while looking at all of us angrily, and then looked back at Kyle who was also laughing right now.

“I am not a nerd… I only like to study well,” she immediately protested in an innocent tone while yelling aloud. We all laughed at her again. I shook my head, and then took another spoonful of food from her bowl. “You have your bowl, too,” Kyle glared at me, but I carelessly moved my shoulders up and down. “Her food tastes better,” I answered him carelessly while eating from her bowl. I was standing in between them and behind her. “Here.. read it after your meal,” she took her notebook from the table and gave it to me. I nodded and took the notebook from her. “It doesn’t matter whether we win today or not, Violet. This is still an achievement for us that we made to the quarters. Winning this semifinal will be a bonus for us,” Rein said to her in a light tone, but also showed his gratitude towards her.

“Still you can try to win, right?” she asked him in a hopeful tone. He smiled faintly and nodded. “Yes, you are right. Today, I am going to play only for you, girl. Because of you, we all are here, and we will try to win this match only for you, as a token of thanks for everything that you did for us till now,” he replied to her in a sincere tone. All the boys from my team agreed with him immediately while looking at Violet. She lowered her eyes shyly. “I did nothing, guys… you are thinking so highly of me. We are friends, right?” she replied to him in a shy tone, and then asked him, raising her eyes again. He immediately nodded in agreement. “This is what a friend does for his friends, right?” she asked her again, and we all smiled genuinely this time. She was the gem, and I was glad that she was our friend now. Rein was right. We had very low chances of winning this match, but we will do this for her. The efforts she gave to analyze our opposing teams, and coming back here when she clearly knew that it could deteriorate her condition, was enough reason for her to make her happy by winning this match, and we all were determined to give our hundred percent to win today’s match……. only for her…..
