Today, I was walking through the school halls as usual, carrying mine and three other kids backpacks to our classroom while they smoked outside. As the classes passed, I dreaded the end of the school day even more. Alex and his friends would most likely find me before I got the chance to walk home. I had no classes with Alex or his friends, so time went by quickly. Grabbing my backpack, I ran out of the school as fast as my slim legs could take me, knowing it wouldn't help. They found me at the back of the gym. I was cornered, Alex in the middle with his three other friends on either side of him. I close my eyes feeling my chest tighten with every kick getting harder and harder. Every one of them saying any insult that came to their minds, as I tried to block out the sound. But soon it stopped hurting, I couldn't feel any pain anymore, and everything went black.
