Falling For The Girl I Bullied
Chapter 14

Violet’s P.O.V.

I almost dragged my tired body inside the class and put down my head on the table as soon as I sat down on my seat. There was still some time in the class and there were only a few students inside the class. I decided to give rest to my body and closed my eyes. Yesterday night was a disaster for me. Thomas and Daisy’s prank once again almost killed me. I didn’t know why everyone got pleasure in bullying me. They knew that I am scared of ghosts and got panic attacks if something like that happens to me. Still they played that prank and I got panic attack. They were not only the reason of the panic attack this time. It was Dustin too. He almost jumped on me in the dark making me panicked at the maximum and then he started screaming like a banshee. Later I came to know that he was also scared of ghosts and dark. I felt pity on him but it didn’t make things better for me.

Mrs Hank stayed with me all night because I was scared to death. She apologized to me, I didn’t know how many times in the morning again. I tried to put her at ease by saying that Thomas and Daisy were kids and they didn’t have any bad intentions but she was really angry with them. Thomas and Daisy were lovely kids but their pranks sometimes really went wrong, especially with me. “Hey…. You”, I heard someone yelling right over me but I really didn’t want to open my eyes. “Now you are playing deaf, huh?” someone slapped my shoulder while taunting me. I winced and opened my eyes slowly.

I saw Millie, one of the minions of Sia, standing in front of me. “What?” I asked her in a tired and frustrated tone. She raised her brows and banged her hand on the table, making me shrink my eyes and nose in frustration. I slowly raised my head from the table and looked at her with tired eyes. She was alone here and it really made me curious. “What do you want, Millie?” I asked her in a tired and flat tone. I was not afraid of her because she couldn’t do anything if alone. “Come with me. Sia called you”, she said in a flat tone while looking at her nails. I scoffed internally, but I didn’t have a choice here. Sia could do worse if I didn’t go.

I took a deep breath and then stood up. “Lead the way then”, I gestured from my hand while asking her in a mocking tone. She glared at me but her reaction only made me smirk internally. She stomped her foot on the ground and then started walking in front of me in anger. I sighed and followed her. I left my bag on the table. I had two assignments in my bag that I needed to submit today. There was no way that I would let Sia destroy them to put me in trouble academically. I gulped hard when I realized that she was taking me towards the girl’s room. Sia was retouching her make-up while all the other girls were changing their clothes. It seemed that they had just come back from their practice.

“She is here”, Millie announced my presence in a sarcastic tone that made me raise my brows at her. Sia didn’t look at me but her two other minions came beside me and grabbed me by my arms tightly. “Hey… what are you doing?” I asked them in panic while trying to free myself from their grips. Their grips tightened on me and they dragged me deep inside the girl’s room. “Stay still”, one of them threatened me, but I didn’t stop. I didn’t know what they wanted to do, but it could be worse for me. I didn’t want her to repeat yesterday once again. Noah saved me yesterday but there was no one here to save me today.

Everyone looked at me with bored expressions while doing whatever they were doing. Sia finished her makeup and one of the minions praised her for being so beautiful. Sia was indeed beautiful but the heavy makeup on her face always hide her beautiful features. I didn’t know why she needed to do heavy makeup. She was still a high school girl. Sia came near to me and looked at me from head to toe with disgust. “I don’t know what others see in you. You are nothing but a weak, pathetic creature who shouldn’t be here…. In this school”, she once again taunted me while putting her hands on her h**s. I stopped struggling for a few seconds and closed my eyes.

“I am sure that you are thinking so highly of yourself because Noah saved your sorry a** yesterday. Don’t have any wrong idea because he did it only out of pity. He saved everyone from seeing your plain, skinny, pathetic body”, she was attacking me verbally and I knew now what she was doing. She was trying to break me emotionally. “A girl like you always plays this pity card to gain the attention and sympathy of rich guys. You make them feel that you need to be protected and it gives them nothing but boost their egos. I am sure Noah only wanted to go inside your pants”, she paused while giving me a very dirty and nasty look.

Her words were like daggers to my small and fragile heart. I knew whatever she was saying was a lie and I didn’t listen to her words. Still I felt like crying. I never asked anyone to feel pity for me. In fact, it made me feel disgusted with myself. “Any ways…. I called you here only to warn you to stay away from the guys. Don’t let me see you anywhere near them or else I will make sure that you curse your birth until you die”, she threatened me while widening her eyes in anger. I didn’t respond to her but looked at her blankly. I wanted to tell her that I also wanted to stay away from them. She should speak with them and ask them to stay away from me. Suddenly she raised her hand and before I could open my mouth, she slapped me hard.

“You dare look at me, huh? It seems that yesterday’s lesson was not enough for you”, she suddenly screamed at me and then slapped me once again on the other side. Both my cheeks throbbed in pain and I hissed a little when I tried to open my mouth. “She is getting wings, Sia”, someone provoked Sia in a mocking tone and I really wanted to smack that girl but couldn’t. They all laughed at me and Sia shot daggers at me through her eyes. “Lock her for a while. She should know her place”, suddenly Sia ordered the girls who were holding me tightly. My eyes widened in horror when I realized what she just said.

They immediately started dragging me to the other side of the room. “No… no…. wait…. Sia… listen to me… don’t do this”, I yelled while struggling hard to get out of their grips. I panicked when I realized what they were going to do. They were going to lock me inside the janitor’s cabinet. “No…. Sia….. listen to me”, I yelled in fear once again. I was now sweating hardly while imagining myself inside there. “Sia…. Don’t do this”, I was now screaming at the top of my lungs, but they did only one thing. They laughed at my reaction. The girls were holding me so tightly that I am sure that I would get bruises there, but those bruises were not my concern right now.

I started hyperventilating as soon as someone opened the door of the cabinet. My whole body trembled in fear when they started pushing me inside the cabinet. “No… No…. listen to me… Sia”, I screamed her name once again in panic. “What is going on here?” Suddenly an authoritative voice boomed inside the girl’s room. The girls stopped pushing me and immediately released me from their holds. I fell down on the ground on my knees and I clutched my chest hard. I was now trying to breathe. “N… nothing, Mrs Stone”, someone answered while stuttering hard.

“O My God… Violet”, I heard someone screaming my name but I was not able to register my surroundings now. I was not able to breathe and there was a sharp pain in my chest. I felt someone wrapping her hands around me. “Ssssshhhhhh…. Girl.. everything is okay… you are okay”, I heard someone cooing in my ear while rubbing my back. “Get some water for her you fool. She is getting a panic attack. If something happens to her you will all be in big legal trouble”, I heard her screaming at others while threatening them. My vision was completely blurred and I couldn’t see who was holding me. I grabbed her hands tightly because her embrace was giving me a sense of security and that was what I needed the most right now.

“Violet…. Violet… listen to me, honey… you are alright. No one is going t hurt you now. You are safe”, she embraced me tightly and tried to comfort me once again, but I was still feeling suffocating and wanted to go out of this stuffy room. “Drink some water.. Violet… drink some water”, she put a glass on my lips. I tried to take a sip but choked on the water and coughed aloud. “Go… call someone to help her now”, I heard her yelling once again in anger. I clutched her hand tightly in fear. “Ssshhhh…. everything is okay… just hold a little bit.. We will be in the medical room soon”, she tried to comfort me again but this was the limit for me and I fainted in her embrace.
