Falling For The Girl I Bullied
Chapter 90

Violet’s P.O.V.

“Are you sure that you want to do this, Violet? You know very well that you don’t have to do this if someone is pressuring you”, our principal, Mr Johnson asked me with concern and I shook my head a little. “No, Mr Johnson. No one is pressuring me. I want to do this on my free will. For your information, I am helping two of them with their homework and assignments”, I answered him politely while telling him what I was doing to help them. I knew that Mr Johnson was a softy and he didn’t want to be on the bad side of anyone, especially the influential families. His eyes widened in surprise. “You are?” he asked me in surprise and I nodded. “Yes, sir”, I nodded again confirming that I was telling him the truth.

A wide smile spread immediately on his lips. “I know whatever happened with you here, Violet, but you know my position and my problems coming with this position too. I am the principal of this school but I had no authority when it comes to punishing these spoiled brats. They are reckless because of the power that their families hold on school management”, he told me something that I didn’t want to know because I knew already that he didn’t want to do anything against them because he loved his chair very much.

“Please process my request on an urgent basis, Mr Johnson. We need our football team before we go to the tournament”, I request him in a polite and gentle tone and he nodded immediately. “One more thing, Mr Johnson”, I suddenly spoke again when I remembered that I didn’t tell him that Ethan had also signed the request of calling those students back. “Yes, Violet?” he asked me in a calm tone. “Ethan Parker has also signed the request with me. So, I think it will be best if you inform the committee about like…. Right now?” I said to him questioningly. His eyes immediately widened in shock and he immediately opened my written request. “He really did”, he exclaimed in disbelief and I nodded with a small smile on my lips.

“I will process it before the day end and will intimate about what they say”, he said in a cheerful tone and I tilted my head a little in front of him before leaving the room. “What did he say?” Justin asked me as soon as I came out of the principal’s room. “He will process the request and will inform me”, I told him and he nodded. “Do you really feel like helping them?” he asked me while walking towards the canteen. “I really feel like this, Justin. I am not saying what they did was not wrong because that was but they are suffering a lot and I feel that they have their lessons and now they should come back so that they can resume their study and pursue their future”, I told him what was in my mind.

“You are really something, princess”, he chuckled and I just shrugged my head while smiling a little. “Ethan and Kyle will come back after lunch”, he informed me and I furrowed my brows in confusion. “They are out of school?” I asked him and he nodded. “No… Ethan asked David to meet him in the parking of the school during the lunch break. They are in the parking lot right now”, he told me and I nodded. “Look who is coming?” we both looked in the direction of the voice when we heard someone saying something in a taunting tone. I sighed internally when I saw Sia coming towards us from the other corridor with Millie and the other girls. “Don’t pay attention to them”, Justin whispered to me and took my hand in his hand.

“O wow.. now he is your boy toy, huh?” Sia taunted me while throwing a disgusting look at me. “Mind your tongue, Sia. She is not you who needs a boy toy every day”, Justin spat venom in a disgusting tone and Sia’s face became ugly in anger immediately. I took a deep breath and then looked at Sia. “Don’t forget, Nickelson… Who I am”, she threatened him while gritting her teeth in anger. “Who are you, Sia Bishop?” before Justin could say anything, I asked her in a calm tone. Sia’s eyes widened in shock instantly. Her mouth hung open when she heard me. I was holding Justin’s hand tightly but today, I was determined to face her bravely. I had enough of her bullshit about me.

“You… you”, she stuttered while looking at me in disbelief. “Yes, me.. Sia… Tell me who are you? What’s your identity except that you are Mr Marcus Bishop’s daughter? Do you have anything else to say about yourself except this identity?” I asked her in a calm tone keeping my gaze fixed on her. “At least I have a father to brag about. Can you say that you are someone’s daughter?” she taunted me immediately and I chuckled this time. I rubbed my finger to the bridge of my nose while looking at her mockingly. “Of course I can say that I am someone’s daughter because I can’t be here without a mother and a father, right?” I asked her mockingly and Justin burst into laughter. Sia immediately glared at him and then looked back at me angrily.

“I know your father and I know you because of your father. This”, I paused and took a step towards her. “Is your identity, Ms Sia Bishop…. This is what you are. You don’t know my father but you know me, and this is me. I can brag about everything that I have because I have earned them (I pointed my finger toward me). Everybody knows me because of me, not because of my father. They come to me for help because they know that I can help them and I don’t need to request my father to buy the boy whom I want to be my boyfriend”, I taunted her with every throne stabbed in my heart by her. I knew that my last statement was the worst taunt because I used Kyle to taunt her.

“And about being him and others my boy toy (I looked at Justin who was now looking at me dumbfounded and then looked back at Sia who was also stunned)… at least I am not playing with their lives”, I winked at her mockingly and then pulled Justin with me while walking in my way to the canteen. To be honest, I was shaking in fear from inside. My heart was hammering against my rib cage and I felt that I would faint due to anxiety at any time. “Wow… that was awesome”, Justin yelled aloud happily and my breath hitched because we were still in the same corridor and I was sure that Sia had listened to what he said.

“Just walk, Justin”, I muttered in a shaking voice and he immediately wrapped his hand around my shoulder. “Don’t worry, princess…. You have me right now and there is no way that I will let anyone touch you. But”, he immediately comforted me but beamed once again. “You hit the right nail”, he exclaimed again in a cheerful tone and I felt like replaceing a hole where I could hide myself. I was infuriated by her taunt and for the first time in my life, I acted on impulse. But it actually felt so good. Her eyes were about to pop out of the socket anytime in shock and I really wanted to laugh aloud while thinking about her expressions.

We reached in the canteen and I sat down near Noah while putting my bag on the table. I took my water bottle out and drank a mouthful of water immediately as my throat was completely dry due to anticipation. “You should have seen her guys, how she put Sia in her place”, Justin immediately started telling everyone what I have done and I threw my head on the top of my bag. “What I have done?” I muttered to myself and closed my eyes. I heard him telling everything to them and I cursed myself for being impulsive again. “Really?” Noah suddenly pulled me up by my shoulders and asked me while looking at me in amazement.

I looked at him helplessly and my lips trembled. “Hey”, he immediately started rubbing my arm when tears started building up in my eyes. “She will surely send killers to kill me now”, I said in a worried tone and everyone looked at me dumbfounded. “Killers? Really?” Dustin asked me in amazement and I felt like crying. They were making fun of what happened earlier and my whole life was at stake now. “I should leave the city now. She will definitely use her father’s position to kill me now. O My God”, I yelled while face-palming myself when so many images of me being killed by someone appeared in my mind. I trembled hard in fear while imagining myself dead in different ways.

“Hey hey hey… princess… don’t think too much… drink some water… drink some water first”, Noah immediately tried to comfort me and gave me the water bottle again. “Noah.. what I have done?” I asked him in a cracked tone and tear rolled down. “Hey princess… don’t spoil the fun, okay. You did nothing wrong and the line that you said about that boy toy thing”, suddenly Dustin yelled at me and his last three words took me off guard. He grinned and quickly came to me on the other side. He sat down on the ground on one knee and took my hand. I moved my upper body a little away from him while eyeing him suspiciously.

“I would love to be your boy toy… just say yes… and I will pluck out stars for you”, he said in a sweet voice while smiling ear to ear and rubbed his face to my arm like a puppy. “Ew… Dustin… go away”, I immediately yanked my hand from his grip and scooted towards Noah but blushed harder. “What? Am I not handsome and sweet?” he immediately made a sad puppy face and blinked while looking at me innocently. “That’s enough teasing her. Don’t give her a heart attack”, Noah scolded him and Dustin pouted while looking at Noah this time. Suddenly I felt that there was too much silence in the canteen. I looked around and immediately turned red in embarrassment when I saw that everyone was now looking at us in shock.

“s**t”, I cursed and immediately covered my face with my hands. Now I really needed a big hole to hide myself. “What? Do whatever you are doing?” Noah yelled aloud and my heart was now about to come out of my chest any time. I felt her hand on my shoulder again and he started massaging my shoulder gently. “To be honest, Violet”, suddenly Noah spoke in a calm tone and I peeked at him between my fingers. “I have someone else in my heart or else I would have also hit on you”, he winked at me while smiling slyly. “Noah”, I yelled, and hit his arm hard. “Ouch”, he yelped but started laughing.

Dustin and Justin also joined him and I just looked at them while moving my head from one side to another with a pout. “She is the best”, Justin also chirped and I glared at him again. “Enough teasing her… now finish the meal or else we will be late for our class”, Noah then instructed them and pulled the food tray towards us. “Eat now, Violet”, he instructed me too and I slumped down my shoulders in defeat. I had to die then I must die with a full stomach. Who knows what we get to eat after death? I started eating my bowl of mac n cheese while thinking about what I could get to eat after being dead.

Suddenly it hit me and I looked at the boys stunned. I was hyperventilating and anxious when I entered the canteen. I was about to get a panic attack when they started spatting nonsense. I smile of gratitude appeared on my lips. They succeeded in diverting my mind. “What?” Noah asked me while chewing and I just shook my head. “Nothing”, I replied to him in a low voice and then looked back at my bowl. They were not obligated to me to take care of me. Still, they did everything to keep me safe and calm. Finally, I got some friends and they really cared about me.

We finished our meal and then walked out of the canteen to go to our next class. The boys were talking about their game and I was just walking silently beside Noah. “Hey”, We all stopped in our way when we heard Ethan’s voice. I looked in the other direction and saw both Kyle and Ethan walking towards us. They were looking calm and I just wished that I had taken the right decision this time. “How was it?” Dustin asked Ethan as soon as they came near to us. Ethan smiled and looked at me. “We are doing the right thing, Violet”, he said to me and I exhaled sharply in relief. I didn’t realize that I was holding my breath till now. I looked at Kyle but blinked harder when I saw him looking at me with narrowed eyes. Did he know what I did earlier?
