Bella quickly cleaned up the scrapes with the bandages from her medical box before driving home looking at the time on her phone she saw it was only three o'clock and she figured that her parents most likely wouldn't be home till closer to seven so she should be able to go to the dry cleaners and get her clothes cleaned lucky for Bella she always kept a change of clothes on her. So, she left the school and drove to the nearest public toilet changing her clothes before searching up a dry cleaner that would clean expensive clothes, as luck would have it there was one not far from the ferry dock, she put the address in and drove to the cleaners after about 20 minutes of driving she pulled up at the cleaners and walked in.
"Hello I was just wondering if you would be able to clean my clothes and get the stains out of them?"
The older women took the clothes from Bella and was surprised to see the extent of stains in the expensive clothes and as she looked at Bella she didn't peg her as the type of girl who would mistreat such expensive clothes, she thought about asking what happened but something told her that it would be best if she didn't so with a warm smile she took the clothes to the back and then walked back to the front counter.
"Yes, I should be able to remove the stains from the clothes and protect the material of the clothes."
"That's great how much will that cost?"
"$60 for everything and the approximate waiting time will be an hour or so."
Bella handed over her card and again the woman took notice of the Louis Vuitton wallet and still couldn't understand why someone who seemed to take great care of her clothes would get what appeared to be food stains all over her clothes. Bella sat on the chairs and pulled out her phone to pass the time but as she did she noticed that she had bunch of Facebook messages from people she didn't know, she opened the messages and saw that people had sent her videos of what happened at school they also starting writing nasty comments like "Who does she think she is" , "I bet that ugly brat is just lying about her money" but the one that bothered her the most was the one saying that "Tomorrow I'm going to destroy that ugly mutt's clothes and I'll make sure everyone sees it on the internet, I'm also going to physically hurt that princess and show her where she belongs." Bella couldn't understand why people were so outwardly jealous of her Bella knew it would be a little difficult for people to not be a little jealous but she just couldn't understand why they were now bullying her for it. Bella decided to turn off her phone for a little bit but as she did another message popped up this time it was photo of a group chat that called themselves the we hate Isabella Montgomery Shepherd club the profile picture for the group was of Bella but it had been clearly defaced they had drawn images of penises on her face and most of the messages were disgusting sexual and nasty messages about her, Bella was so grateful that none of her parents had Facebook or any form of social media other than Viber or skype. She didn't want them to know about what was happening at school and all Bella could do was hope that eventually they would get tired but from the messages being sent it was obvious that wasn't going to be happening anytime soon. After an hour or so the cleaner came back with her clothes looking practically brand-new Bella took her clothes and drove home she just wanted to escape from everyone for a while and she knew home was the place to do so.
After twenty five minutes or so she arrived at her house she drove up the long driveway and immediately took notice of her step-mum's car in the driveway Bella knew that Meredith was going to ask why she changed clothes and Bella certainly did not feel like explaining or making up an excuse for the change of clothes as she looked around she noticed that Meredith was engaged in a phone call and seemed preoccupied with the call, she was also sitting in the front lounge that meant Bella could easily enter through the back door without being noticed by Meredith. Bella walked around the back and quietly opened the door she then quietly walked upstairs, Bella changed into Victoria secret pink sweatpants and hoodie she did her homework fairly quickly but as she finished more messages popped up which seemed to be getting more nasty as she began reading them the door to her room opened Bella quickly hid her phone in her makeup desk and Meredith soon entered her room and sat on Bella's bed.
"Hey Belle I'm sorry I didn't say hi when you came in I was dealing with some mess that my idiot interns made how was your first day of school did you like it?"
"It's totally fine Mere and yes it was great I like my classes and the people are nice it's a bit different though but I am liking it so that's good how was your first day and why are you home early I thought you weren't leaving till six?"
"Well that's good to hear and my first day was good my residents are decent my interns however are as stupid as they look, I mean they made the most stupid mistakes it was a joke but I suppose they aren't going to learn without making them but you should come to the hospital and help me teach them maybe they'll actually learn a thing or two from you also I left early because I finished all of my work and figured someone should greet you home."
"Yeah I definitely have to come and help you teach them it's always fun seeing them get intimidated by the fact a teenager knows more than them."
"Alright well you might want to change we are going out to dinner tonight after your dad comes home he wants to celebrate our move here."
"Alright sounds good is this a fancy restaurant?"
"Yeah your dad said it was pretty upscale so it's probably pretty fancy although I think a regular diner would have been fine."
Bella laughed at Meredith's comment it was true both Bella and Meredith preferred the cheaper restaurants that tasted just as good but her dad had a taste for finer food and he generally liked eating more expensive food even though he did occasionally enjoy a beer and pizza.
Meredith decided to leave Bella's room but as she looked her daughter she couldn't help but notice something was definitely up when Bella was talking about school it sounded as though she was putting a front up to hide something but Meredith had known her long enough to know when Bella was hiding something, however she also knew that if it was something serious Bella would tell them after all four of her parents made it a point to tell her that if something was bothering her or seriously wrong that she should tell one of them about with that Meredith left her room just hoping that it was only her overacting.
Bella however was grateful that Meredith had finally left the room and as the messages were endless although now they escalating to threats and Bella knew that if her parents found out what happening these kids would be in more trouble than they could even imagine Bella quickly texted her friends in New York to see how they were doing before getting ready for dinner. She looked through her wardrobe and picked a tight fitting black Christian Dior dress which had spaghetti straps and ended just above her knees and seeing how it was old in Seattle she put her black Channel blazer on which complimented the dress perfectly before pairing it with her nude patent peeped toed Louboutin's, she did her hair and makeup and within two hours she was ready for dinner and just in time to see her parents ready to go as well. However what Bella completely forgot about was the scrapes on her arms and knees and her father immediately took notice of the scrapes on her knees. And was concerned as to how they got there in the first place knowing that his daughter wasn't generally clumsy.
"Bella where did you get those scrapes on your knees those weren't there this morning."
Derek then walked over to Bella and inspected the scrapes to make sure they weren't getting infected or anything like that.
"Oh, those I tripped at school there was a rock at school and I tripped on it that's all dad."
Derek knew his daughter was hiding something he knew when Bella was covering something up but he figured he would bring it up with her later he just hoped that Bella would tell him how she really got those scrapes.
"Alright just be more Careful Bella I don't want to see my princess coming home hurt."
After that the trio left the house and made their way to the restaurant but as they got out of the car Bella saw McKenna and her friends smoking in the ally and McKenna immediately spotted Bella and noticed the restaurant they were heading to as being one of the fanciest restaurants in the city McKenna took a picture and began laughing with her friends and Bella knew that more messages were coming her way. She put her phone on silent and slipped it into her Channel clutch before making her way into the restaurant as she sat and ate she periodically checked her messages this time they seemed to be saying "Oh look the little princess can't eat regular food no she has to eat French food I'd love nothing more than to throw her food over her ugly head." Another one said "Nah I'd love to knock her out rob her maybe that'll teach her not wear those stupid designer clothes that she so loves." Finally, the last message came from McKenna "Just wait for tomorrow I'm going to make that princess wish she never came to our school and make sure you record it and put it online so we can laugh and mock her some more trust me tomorrow will be epic."
Bella grew more concerned about what they were going to tomorrow but for now she sat down and enjoyed her meal completely ignoring the messages coming her way after they were done eating the three of them got some ice-cream before walking around the Seattle cannels but as they were doing that Bella kept seeing McKenna follow her, Bella couldn't understand why she was bothering her so much more than anything Bella wished she would have gone to a private school instead of being at her current school she hated everyone there and just wanted them to leave her alone.
The next morning Bella left for school only to arrive to a gang of people surrounding her car Bella got out and tried avoiding them but they kept grabbing and pushing at Bella McKenna soon stepped in front of Bella this time she held a can of paint and before Bella knew she had pink paint splattered all over her. However that wasn't going to be the end of her torment no McKenna soon grabbed Bella and shoved her straight into the wall leaving her with a black eye after Bella got up McKenna pushed her sideways causing Bella to blackout for a moment, she wanted to run away but of course everyone else had other plans for Bella McKenna came from behind and pushed her face first causing Bella to cut her lip and putting more bruises on Bella's face, by this time Bella had enough and just ran to the nearest bathroom knowing that today was going to be a very long day for her but right now all she wanted to do was break down she figured that after she was done crying she would just plan how she would avoid everyone but as she sat there she only wondered what she did to deserve the treatment she was receiving and was hoping like hell that they would stop because Bella knew she wouldn't last much longer if it kept going on like this.
