Kidge High School Fan Fiction

Chapter 31

It's been two weeks since Keith asked me to be his girlfriend. Matt and Shiro did not really care that we were alone in my house whenever they had classes. I think it's because they are gaining some feelings for each other. If I see them talking, they end up blushing. I even asked Matt about it.

"Hey, Matt?" I said one day.

"Yeah Pigeon?" Matt replied, working on his model for a class.

"Are you and Shiro dating?"

That made him break a part of his model, and I helped him make it again before he responded.

"We are not dating Pidgeon! W-where did you get that idea?" Aww, he was blushing!

"You guys are always hanging out and blushing when near each other," I said, and he smiled a bit.

"Yeah, that's because we are friends. Plus, even if I did like him - which I do not by the way - I think he is interested in Allura. He said that he wanted to ask her out," Matt said, and I couldn't help but notice that he looked sad.

"Okay. But if you do like him, you better tell me. I now have more experience in that area than you," I said, and he looked offended before chasing me around the house.

Yeah, I know he is lying about not liking Shiro.

Anyway, I was in Math class right now. I could feel Lotor's eyes on me as I was doing a worksheet, and I couldn't help but feel nervous. The past two weeks, since he saw Keith and me together, he didn't approach me; he just stared at me to the point where it made me uncomfortable.

Ignoring him, I continued to work on the paper until I felt a presence above me. Looking up, I saw that it was Lotor.

"Hey, Katie. The teacher said that I could ask you to help me with this worksheet in the hallways. You wouldn't mind helping a fellow classmate, would you?" The way he said that made me feel like he was slowly luring me into a trap.

"U-uh sure," I said hesitantly, looking at the teacher. She nodded at me, and I realized that Lotor did actually ask her. Oh no. 

Once we were outside, Lotor, who was holding my arm, dragged me down to the ground a little too harshly. 

"So, what do you need help with?" I asked, and he smirked.

"Oh Katie, did you really think I needed help? I was just here to start step one of making your live living h*ll."

Shoot.

"Y-you can't hurt me." He just laughed.

"Not physically, no. At least, not yet. But, I can do so with my words."

"So, Pidge, what would your boyfriend think when he learns that you let guys touch you back in your old school? Better yet, what if I told your entire school?"

What? Just thinking about how I was held down when guys touched me (luckily, they didn't do anything too serious; just touched my face and any skin I was showing) brought tears to my eyes. I knew Lotor was lying, and while Keith wouldn't believe it, I had no doubt a lot of people would.

"T-that's a lie and you know it! I never let them do that! You were the one who held me down and told them they could!" I shouted, tears streaming down my face.

"Nobody would know that Katie. Plus, everyone would believe me over you." Then, he walked back into class, leaving me there. And when the bell rang, I stayed in my spot, frightened at what Lotor was going to do to me.

"Lance?" I said as I walked to lunch with him.

"Yeah Katie?" he said, looking at me.

"C-can we eat outside? Just us two? Please? Tell Keith and Hunk that I am helping you with something," I said, and Lance looked surprised.

"Um, Katie, as much as I would, I don't think Keith would be oka-"

"I need to tell you something very important that I can't to Keith. Please," I begged him, and he nodded, sending a text to Hunk and Keith about how we wouldn't be joining them today.

As soon as we were outside, I hugged Lance, letting my tears out. Lance pulled me back and when he saw my face, he looked angry.

"Who did that to you?"

"L-let's sit down," I stuttered, and we sat down on a bench. 

"You know Lotor right?" I asked, and he nodded.

"Well, he used to go to my old school before I moved here. And, he wasn't very... nice to me. TO put it short, he bullied me." Lance looked like he wanted to say something, but I continued.

"He and his friends would torment me every day. Most of the time it was verbally, saying how stupid or ugly I was, but sometimes, it became physical. He would trip me in class, push me in the halls against lockers, and sometimes, they would throw me in the dumpsters behind the school. However, one day, it was terrible. It was the end of the school day, and I was picking my stuff from my locker, no one around me. Then, Lotor and his friends came up to me and dragged me to the back of the school. He held me down as his friends... touched me. They touched my face, neck, and sometimes my legs. They even took off my sweater, leaving me in a shirt. Luckily, they didn't do anymore because they got their results: me, helpless to them, and in tears. I ran home that day and became so disgusted with myself that I let them touch me that my insecurity and low self-esteem is how it is today. And today, he threatened to say that I was letting them do that to me to the entire school when I wasn't! I wasn't letting them do that! I-I wasn't..."

When I couldn't let out anything besides sobs, Lance held me against him, not saying anything. I was thankful for that fact. I couldn't handle talking about this.

"It's okay Katie, I will make sure that Lotor can't do that to you. And once Keith knows, Lotor won't even know wh-"

"No!" I shouted.

"Huh? What do you mean no?" Lance asked, confused.

I looked down. "I mean don't tell Keith. I shouldn't worry him with my problems in life. He doesn't deserve that after everything he has done for me."

"Katie, you aren't a burden to him. But I won't tell him if that's what you want. Should I tell Hunk though?" I thought about it before nodding. Lance smiled and hugged me one last time before saying, "Let's go back to lunch, shall we?"
