Lindsey pulled her file closer to her body, her arms wrapping around it like it was her safety line. Why did she feel like all eyes were on her? Every time she glanced up at least one person was looking at her in either disgust, or they were sniggering like, well, schoolchildren. Lindsey felt a wave of insecurity wash over her; she needed an escape route and fast. The girl's toilets were her ideal option right now, she skirted past a few people and their icy glares and literally jumped into her safety zone, or so she thought.
"Well look who it is" Lindsey knew that voice, she grimaced at its icy tone.
"Little Miss Dyke!" Another girl chanted, the others erupting into girly giggles as they surrounded Louise, who stood in front of Lindsey, who felt utterly helpless.
Lindsey shook her head, she couldn't wipe the fear off her face, even if she did try to put a brave face on, she just couldn't, she dreaded this day, why did it have to come now? "Louise, please…" She begged.
"Well, we all knew it was coming. First your mom, now you!" Louise spat
"It must run in the family!" A third girl said, the laughter swarming around Lindsey like white noise.
Lindsey's fear was turning into anger now, she was no longer thinking about the pain she would feel about this afterwards, she was thinking about what Faith would feel, how horrible it would be to know that she might be driven out of this school too.
"Louise, shut up" Lindsey warned, her voice low but very bitter.
All of the girls stopped laughing and looked at Louise; this wasn't part of their plan. "Oh lookie here! Miss Willows gunna stand up for herself?" Louise put her hands on her hips; her short skirt and face plastered in make up showed she had not one inch of innocence left in her body.
Lindsey clenched her fist, her file dropping to the floor. Her eyes glazed over in rage and she slowly stalked forwards, backing Louise into the corner of the bathroom. All of her 'friends' moved to the further side, shocked faces plastered on them like paint.
Lindsey chuckled "Who's gunna protect you now, Lou?" She spat, each tinge of hatred she'd ever felt poured into each word, and Louise felt it.
Louise gulped hard as her eyes darted over to her friends in a desperate plea for help. Not one of the glossy make-up covered girls stepped forwards in their short skirts and boots. Each one of them known as a bully but to Lindsey, all they were was cowards.
"You know, I used to think that I cared about what you said… I used to think that you had to APPROVE everything I did" Lindsey's voice was getting louder, her body tensed.
Louise shuffled in an effort to wiggle out of Lindsey's grasp but Lindsey only firmed her grip on the pathetic girl.
"But now I see you for what you really are, Louise. And that's words, that's all you are, pathetic, childish, useless words" Lindsey stopped, looking over to the girls then back to Louise "And that's all your ever going to be"
And with that, Lindsey backed off. All her anger poured out into acidic words instead of physical fury. She bent down to pick up her file then left without a single word, she felt triumphant, like she'd gotten one up on the school bully. Or in this case, the school bitch.
Faith turned around the corner to meet Lindsey at her locker, she had no clue about what was going on but she had gotten her fair share of staring, as soon as her eyes set on Lindsey she lit up inside.
"Linds!" Faith shouted, running over to her.
"Hey you" Lindsey's voice was hushed, her file now safely in her bag, she wrapped her arms around Faith's neck, people stopping and staring, but she didn't care. She felt like she could rule the world right now.
Faith was suspicious, but she didn't move. The feeling of being in Lindsey's arms made her feel safe, like words and people couldn't touch her, like it didn't matter at all. "W-whats happened?"
"I finally told Louise where to stick it" Lindsey said triumphantly before placing a feather light kiss on Faith's lips, officially outing them to the entire school. She knew it was the right thing to do in the long run; Faith wanted it just as much as she did.
"Good for you" Faith said confidently once the kiss had ended, everything fitted into place now, she had never felt happier.
They both walked to their next class together, hand in hand, smiles brighter than the sun. They were prepared for whatever came next, they'd defeated their demons, now it was all about them and the happiness they deserved so badly.
Sara leaned over the kitchen counter and stared outside, Catherine had been called into work for a staff meeting so it was her and the silence that surrounded her. She liked having rare moments like this, but it did bring back feelings of loneliness, even though she'd been with Catherine for three years, the distant feeling of her past life still stuck to her like ivy. She glanced at the clock, Lindsey would be home in two hours and Catherine should be home any minute now, she waited patiently, her eyes searching for Catherine's car outside. She felt lost without the blue-eyed blonde. It probably sounded so old but Catherine really was a part of her now, she lost a small piece of happiness every time Catherine or Lindsey wasn't around, she loved them both dearly.
The sound of key's being pushed into the lock smashed its way through Sara's trial of thought and she ran towards the front door, Catherine's perfectly straight hair covering one side of her face while she leaned over to put her keys back into the bowl on the coffee table. Sara took another step forward before enveloping Catherine in the biggest hug alive.
"Whoa, miss me?" Catherine chuckled.
Sara just nodded before backing Catherine into the wall and kissing her with every last bit of energy she had left in her body. Catherine felt her knees go weak and she lost all feeling in her hands, her bag dropping to the floor. Catherine moaned into Sara's mouth as she delicately slipped her leg in-between Sara's legs.
"Maybe we should take this upstairs?" Sara whispered, her face close to Catherine's.
Catherine knew that Sara didn't need words as an answer; she simply slid out of her grasp and began to move upstairs. Sara followed, mouth partly open at the sweet sight of Catherine's swaying hips.
