Pain
Chapter 1(late)
#skye's POV#
'Ring ring' the alarm rung. I woke up and stretched before turning off the alarm.
It was 6:00 in the morning, i took a quick cold shower and got dressed in my leggings and sports bra to go for my usual 20 minutes jog as it keeps my body in shape.
I pulled my hair up in a messy bun, grabbed my water bottle and left the house.
After jogging for 15 minutes, I got tired and decided to sit on a Bench for thirty seconds and continue my jog home since it was kind of a 360° jog. I drank some water to make my breathing stable but not too much for me not to get all tired and relaxed.
I got home after 10 minutes, i rested a bit in the living room watching the tv. After another 10 minutes I decided to make breakfast and lunch.
I finished preparing the meals and I took my bath and got ready for school. I exited the house and rode to school on my old bike.
I arrived at school 25 minutes late, I rushed to my first class, English.
I entered the class and settled in my desk in the last row, I picked that row because it was the dead end nobody would love to sit in, even the back benchers picked the second to the last row because they didn't want to sit in the same row i did as they never acknowledge me and I also did the same to them as well. I carefully hung my back pack at the back of my chair. Miss Katie, the principal stood by the window, it seemed she had been there before but i didn't notice her presence, what on earth was she doing in here?
"What took you so long Skye?"Miss Katie asked,
"I'm so sorry Mrs Katie"i apologized
"You know the rules, don't you?"
"Yes ma'am, i do"
"I'll pardon you today"
"Thanks ma'am"
"Try as much as you can to arrive early, classes commences by 8am sharp, punctuality is our first priority in Golden mounts, I'd rather put you in detention than let it slide next time. I don't encourage indiscipline, i encourage punctuality. Make punctuality an habit before it's too late, understand?"
"Yes, Mrs katie"
"Very well"
The back benchers more like front benchers whispered things to themselves and laughed silently at it while staring back at me but I didn't give a shit about whatever they were caping about, I stared at them in disgust trying hard not to puke at their irritating attitude.
After 2 more classes, I was in the cafeteria having lunch peacefully until everyone suddenly gathered to a desk, some standing while some brought their chairs to the table that seemed to be the spotlight. It was charlie of course, why do I seem so surprised when i knew It was no other than the the school superstar of course, charlie cooper, the guy I've been crushing on for 7 years now. Call me crazy or whatever, i don't care about crushing on a guy since i was 9. As far as his hotness is worth it.
After about 7 minutes of hearing 'awwn', 'wow', 'charlie' from the girls, i sincerely felt like joining them but I was never acknowledged and I didn't want to be embarrassed again but that's old news, i don't care about being embarrassed because that happened to me every single day in this Golden mounts of a school. I don't want to be humiliated by the school porpular hottie, now that would hurt badly.
I just sat there trying to withstand the giggles and squeals from the girls. I was dying from boredom, i got up and charged towards the exit as the entire cafeteria stared daggers at me, i felt my heart sink but i kept walking regardless, i kept my chin down as i kept walking, i could still feel their cruel eyes on me, i was busy trying to muster the little self confidence i had left to atleast keep my chin up when i bumped into one of the back benchers more like front bencher since he was sitting in front of me.
"Watch where you're going you lonely jerk"Gold said
I stared at him while begging my tears not to come out now.
"I'm sorry"
"Oh nerd, and then what....."he pushed me on a table. I got up instantly preparing to walk away but he pushed me again.
"What do you want you creature!!"i yelled with tear filled eyes. I was actually this rude girl with a wide mouth, that's why everyone hated me, they think I'm proud and rude but they don't know they only push me to say things. I read stories where other bully victims get intimidated and don't talk back, neither do they fight back, but I am really different and crazy, I talk back and fight back with every fibre of my strength till I'm about to pass out or maybe till I pass out.
"Dumny, What did you just call me?!!"he yelled,
"A creatue, i called you a freaking creature, a blood sucking creature!!"i yelled back at him,
He scoffed as he pushed me again but harder this time, I wish Fionna, my wolf, was still in me. Well I'm a werewolf, i mean was one, i lost my wolf somehow, it's very complicated. Only If I was still a werewolf, I should have beat the crap out of him right here using fionna's strength, but I guess i can still give him few bruises while I'll carry more damages. Call me dumb, I don't care, I just need to see anyone who dare pokes my wrath, bleed.
"What do you want?"i whispered as my voice broke, yet I was glaring at him with my huge tear filled brown eyes like i wasn't scared but pained,
"What do I want?"he laughed humourlessly as he pulled my hair and messed it up,
The students including charlie gasped at the scene Gold caused but I didn't care, he let go of my hair after he noticed I winced for a while and then glared at him like i wanted him 6 feet under.
"Try that again I'll put you 6 feet under!!"i yelled
"You wish you could, bitch"he spat on my face as he pulled my hair again, I was ready to punch him in his ugly ass face when we got interrupted.
"Dude, what's the matter with you, let go of her"Charlie interrupted in a warm, relaxed voice, i was irritated by Charlie this once. He saw I was in pain and needed help but decided to interfere in this unconcerned, cool, relaxed voice- where did he put that fierce voice I'm falling for- Am i not worth that fierce voice?, Am I not?!!. Did I not really matter to him a tiny bit? I don't know for we've never spoken or interacted- not even once, did I not matter to anyone? No i don't. But did i not really matter to this extent of people watching me feel pain and Charlie interfering with a relaxed tone. Did he not have atleast an iota of pity for me? Did they not feel atleast a ounce of care about me? I thought I got used to the pain of not being important, but not being important to charlie was on another level, another level of pain i never felt, A kind of pain that made it feel like someone dug their nails into my chest and pulled my heart strings. Why didn't he just keep putting me in the stranger zone than to show me he doesn't care about me, than to scream it to my face that i don't matter in public. Why didn't he just shut the fuck up and sit his ass down and let me land the punch I was going to plant on this idiots face. Now I can't even fight back as all the strength in me was drained, so as the air in my throat. DAMNIT!!!
My tears poured out as I quickly wiped them with the back of my hand and plastered my face to the ground and let the tears pour silently on the shiny butter coloured tiles.
"Oh charlie, the school rich superst-"Gold blurted out as I gasped and wiped my tears knowing well that charlie would be angered at those words. Gold didn't finish his sentence, I raised my chin to see what was going on.
Charlie held Gold in the collar and pulled him closer with force. Charlie hates it when anyone calls him superstar or rich kid, he just wanted to have a normal childhood but people always clinch to him all of a sudden and he becomes all porpular- good for him. I'm surprised of how much I know about him. I always stalked him without him being aware to know enough about him but I stopped the stalking all of a sudden since max (my brother) travelled to Japan for business.
"You were saying?"charlie said, some of the girls in the cafeteria squealed at this, while some just blushed silently in their palm.
"S-supe-r st-sta-"gold stubbornly stuttered as Charlie lifted him higher in the air against the wall. One of the chefs passing by was shocked at the scene that her spatula fell from her hand, I giggled as I helped her with her spatula, she thanked me as I beamed at her with my tired and teary eyes. I looked back at charlie and he was still holding Gold who was already gasping for breathe. I took a deep breathe in and swallowed the lump in my throat as i spoke with my broken voice.
"J-just l-let go of him c-charlie"i blurted out. I was already as red as a cooked lobster as i looked at Charlie. He let go of Gold and stared at the blushing me for a while then left in anger with few of his shirt's button loose. I only stared at his back for a while before turning to my table.
I picked my smoothie and was ready to leave, I halted and turned to Gold who was catching his breath on the floor with his hands feeling his neck and his face sweaty. He sustained some injuries, no doubt charlie punched him a few times when I was helping the chef with her spatula. I punched him in the face a couple of times till his eyebrow cut a little before spitting on his face and pouring my smoothie on his hair to top it off, i sigh with so much satisfaction when i was done and exited the cafe.
School ended for that day after 3 classes which Gold was absent, he was in the school clinic tending to his wounds- good for him. I got home and took a shower. I went to the kitchen and took out my left over pizza to microwave it.
I stood there for a minute and read the notes max sticked to the fridge for me before he left. 'stay strong Skye, I'll be back soon, study hard and pass all your tests', 'make mum and dad proud of you'. I sighed at the thought of mum and dad, I started thinking about my never coming back parents, I didn't know i started crying until the microwave 'ding' brought me back to reality.
"Oh..."
I took the pizza and ate it. I went to my room to read my textbooks for my test tomorrow.
My brother suddenly texted me that he'll be back by Monday, I was really excited he's coming back home from work soon, I was tired of staying and doing everything alone.
Speaking of work, I had an afternoon shift at 'da pitsa'. I didn't want to be late for work, i quickly changed my clothes into a short gown and a brown jacket to cover my cleavages, i didn't want to get quarries from lary mira, the daughter of who owned the restaurant.
I got to da pitsa and was ready to switch places with Annabelle since she was done with her shift.
"Hey anna or belle or ann, which one"i said as we both giggled,
"Anyone is fine with me skye. By the way, you're 17minutes late but don't worry i got ya covered, lady mira thought you wouldn't make it actually so she asked me to fill in for you but i guess you're here now so I'd take my leave"
"I'm sorry for making you fill in for me, I'll come earlier next time, i promise Anna"
"It's fine skye, thank me later"
"Thanks, did lady mira give you the new menu?"
"Of cousre she did, it's right here, in the third drawer but nevermind that, we made some changes, the menu is right on the customers' tables" she said as i nodded, "all you gotta do is pick only the jotter, what if i told you there's no jotter anymore, we use tabs now. Just click on any food the customers want on the tab and if they want extra anything, just type it in. Then click the send button on the buttom left. It will automatically send to the kitchen"she instructed as i listened attentively, "well gotta go, I've got a baby brother to pick from the babysitter, bye"
"Bye and thanks for filling in for me and also thanks for teaching me the new update, my regards to little Robert. Once again thank you so much"
"It's fine skye, i don't wanna be late to pick Robert, you're welcome, bye"she left
Annabelle is such a sweet girl, she also started working 2 months ago like me also, yet she had helped me alot of times. she was working because financials aren't on her parents side so she has to work to be a bit independent, she told me about how her big brother help alot and gives her lots of money, i always get jealous everytime i hear about him. Me on the other hand works because i want to join a cheer squad, cheering had been my dream since i was 5 and mum promised me that i would cheer no matter what it takes. I had to pay $4,500 dollars to get into the audition.
