"Austin and Ally" Fanfic

I was surrounded. There was nowhere to go, and Mindy was already throwing punches at me. Sure it was only her, and my body strength matched hers, but I still was brought to the ground by her. That was the last thing I remember before I blacked out. That sinister smile, her saying 'goodnight Ally' and that was it. From all the bruises I could've sworn she still hit me even after I lost consciousness. But when Austin found me she was gone. I still don't know if I should tell him how this all happened.

Flashback…

I'm Ally Dawson, and the girl who bullied me was Mindy Sampson. She bullied me with her football boyfriend every day after school. There was no escaping it. I walked out of class, and either her or Josh would be waiting. It was a routine. They'd knock the books out of my hands then as I picked them up they'd push me to the ground. I couldn't stop them, because then the entire football team would come after me. Sometimes Mindy would even wait by my house poised for attack. I was the gazelle, and she was the lion. She was the cheerleader to my math-lete. I don't even know why she hated me, I guess because I knocked her off the honor roll and stood at the top since 5th grade. Whatever the reason, she hated me and I couldn't escape the torture. After a few months, I began cutting myself. I felt like there had to be a reason she hated me, like I deserved it. I wore turtlenecks and long sleeves to hide the scars from my parents. They never knew a thing. Sometimes Mindy hit me right on my scars and my screams of pain would bring a smile to her face. Her eyes lit up whenever I screamed in pain. No one helped me because they knew that they would be the next target.

Present day...

As I lay in the hospital bed pretending to be asleep I think about whether I should tell Austin all of this. I wondered if he would find her and hurt her for what she did to me. I woke up hours ago but did not open my eyes because I wasn't ready for Austin to confront me about it. All he knows is that I was attacked. He doesn't know who did it and why. I remember Mindy's jealousy before she attacked me while I took the garbage to the bin behind Sonic Boom. She was jealous that I was becoming famous, and she told me that she should be the one hanging out with Austin. She was jealous of the way Austin looked at me. At first I didn't recognize the blond haired, green eyed girl when she walked outside to me. It only took me a few minutes of her insults to realize what she was there for. She told me she was waiting to head back to Miami after moving during 8th grade. She was waiting for the perfect moment to get her revenge and she thought now was the perfect time. I could hear Austin asking the doctor when I would wake up. She told him that because I had a mild concussion and many bruises on my face it could be a while. Mindy has driven me to much worse problems than a concussion before. But I'm still not sure whether I should mention that.

Flashback…

I was in the 7th grade when I decided to commit suicide. The abuse happened more and more everyday and it was becoming unbearable. Even if I didn't expose them, the football team saw me as a threat. I was their target now too. I tried everything I could to get away, I even cut my last classes in the day to leave before they saw me. But after they figured out my tactic they were not fazed. My grades dropped because I was much more infested in my pain. So finally, on December 2, I decided I could not live life this way. Therefore, I shouldn't be living. Obviously, my attempt failed. I took many pills but it didn't work. My parents found my passed out and took me to the hospital immediately. I lied to them about the bullying again and told them that I just didn't realize what I was doing. They doubted me, but it was the end of the conversation as soon as I promised never to do that again. So that was the end of my attempted suicide. She moved a year later, to my joy. But the scars would always stay.

Present Day…

Only my parents knew about my suicide attempt. Yet, they still have no idea that I used to cut myself. When I officially opened my eyes I was answering to my friends and family. I was nervous but I knew that if I didn't tell them the truth, Mindy might strike again. So I prepared myself, and listened for Austin's gasp as I opened my eyes and began to sit up.
