Chapter 10

"Loser!" I was called, as I walked past some of Tristan's ex- friends. I sighed, I'm so used to it. I refrained from telling my dad and my boyfriend about my bullying situation. If I tell my dad, I would earn the title of 'school snitch'. If I tell my boyfriend, he would start a fight. So, I roam the halls, books clutched to my chest, ignoring those with hurtful comments.

I sighed, turning into english. First one in the classroom again, great! Another thing for them to hold against me. The other students started piling in the classroom after a few minutes, mainly because others have 'friends'. Marcus , always interested in talking to me, takes a seat behind me.

"Hey Elizabeth, How yours day been? Hows life? Have you heard the rumors? Whats going on?" He asked quizzically.

I shook my head. That's Marcus for you! "What rumors?"

"Well, they claim you're only dating Lucas to become popular. The belief is if you become popular enough, you'll leave Lucas."

No, No, No, if this gets to Lucas, he'll... he'll dump me. Or course, the story is so believable, because they came up with the perfect back story. My whole episode at the beginning of the school year, was reason enough. Marcus went on telling me about the rumor, how I'm only dating a Jock to get close to their friends and then I'll break up with him. This was not true! By the end of the conversation, class has started and I was in tears. The teacher talked In the background while I attempted to come up with a way to stop the rumor before Lucas heard, Desperate and not thinking, I stood up, putting a lousy idea into action.

I quickly stood up in front of my classroom, tears still rolling down my cheeks, and yelled. "STOP, STOP! I love him, and he loves me. I'm not using him, so stop the rumors!"

People around the classroom giggled at my pain and misfortune. One person in particular, John, found my dramatic freakout 'hilarious'. How has it been so long, and the guy constantly bothers me. "That's not what I heard, soon he'll be fed up with you. You know he's one of my best friends and I don't want him to get hurt..." He giggled at the last part, noting the ironicness. He knew hurting our relationship was the only thing that would truly get to me. Me losing Lucas.

Before I could respond with a comeback, the sound of someone clearing their throat from behind me interrupted us. I shuddered forgetting about... The teacher. "Ms. Moonstone" I felt a tap on my shoulder and I turned around. He shoved a detention slip in my hand and pointed to the door. "Detention. I'm sure you know where it is."

John let out a snarl. "I'm sure she knows the way to a lot of places." A roar of laugh or laughter erupted in the classroom.

My teacher put his hand up and silenced the class. "Mr. Jackson, you may go to. You have also interrupted class. I'm sure you know the way as well. Mr. Jock."

I quickly exit the classroom. I didn't want to be trapped in the hallways, alone with John. I swiftly handed my slip to the detention lady and sat in a corner seat. To my left sat: Elijah, Tristan, Luna, Jacob and Two other people I didn't recognize from classes.

Moments later John bursts through the door, throwing the detention slip at the lady and picking me up by my neck.

"YOU, You gave me detention!" I closed my eyes, bracing myself for the pain that was yet to come.

And it came, enough to knock me out.

My eyes closed but before I fell into unconsciousness, I heard the faint voices of others and a loud growl.
