Blake
" Seriously?... Rule breaker?" I asked Zach.
" Yep" he nodded.
" What makes you think I broke a rule?" I asked.
" Uhh... You're here when you're meant to be in class now"
" So?"
" The principal occasionally brings in students who breaks the rule here when she's caught up with a lot of work"
" Why?" I asked.
" She believes that the 12 graders are so mature enough to watch those students making sure they behave" he explained.
" Oh... I see" I nod in understanding. " By the way, where's your teacher?" I asked.
" Our teacher's on a maternity leave so we're literally free for the moment" he smiled.
" Lucky"
He chuckled softly.
" Hey lostie" I bit my lips furiously, turned around and saw Andrew smiling at me.
" What do you want, Andrew?" I asked.
" So you're not even going to say hi?" He asked.
" Alright, hi... Now leave me alone" I rolled my eyes.
" Leave her alone Andrew, she ain't worth it" Lyla, who beside him spoke.
" Lyla!!!" Zach said.
" What is it, cousin?" She asked, twirling her hair around her finger.
" Don't speak about Blake like that" he cautioned her.
" And why is that? Don't tell me you're literally taking her side" Lyla said. I clenched my hands into a fist. I guess Zach noticed as he put his hand on mine.
Looking up at him, he gave me a look that literally said I should calm down.
" I'm just not going to argue with you right now , Lyla, because we're already in trouble" I calmly said.
" What a cowardly bitch" she mumbled.
" What did you say?" I asked.
" What?"
" I want you to just repeat what you just said" I said.
" Oh, you mean cowardly bitch" she repeated.
" Alright... That's it" I stood up about to hit her but was held back by Zach.
" Nope" he said.
" No Zach, leave me alone" I told him, trying to struggle away from his grip around my waist .
" Leave her alone to do her worst" Lyla said.
" Will you just shut up?" Andrew yelled at her.
" You too, Andrew?" She asked.
" You literally have no right to call Blake that" he told her. Wait...was he seriously defending me?.
" And why is that? She's such a nuisance" she yelled. Everyone's eyes were on us at this time and i didn't even care.
" Zach, your cousin is really getting out of hand" a girl stood up and said.
" Lyla, cut the crap" Zach told her angrily which made her to shut up.
I felt uneasy then released myself from Zach's grip.
" Blake?"
I stepped back then ran out of the class. I know I was being chased by Zach but I didn't even look back. Eventually, I ran into the janitor closet. I slipped down the door and let out angry tears even though I knew I wasn't supposed to be crying.
