Hey guys! I'm sorry that it has been so long, I have been working on my one-shot fic. It is actually doing quite well, but I decided I should make another chapter of this, because I left you on a nice Auslly cliff-hanger, and I really needed to write more of this because I am extremely excited on your reaction to the chapter.
Ally looked past Austin's head and saw her drunk dad pulling in to the driveway. Once Austin had finally come up for breath, Ally stopped him for a second. "Um, Austin?"
"Yeah?"
"My-My dad is home now. I think I should probably go home before he beats me up."
"Oh, ok." he laughed, with no clue that she wasn't joking.
She just nodded and got up from Austin's bed, letting herself out. He watched her leave, still holding on to the feeling of her lips on his. His face was flushed and he was starting to sweat, so he turned on the fan so he could cool down.
As Ally walked up the driveway, she heard the door opening. "Ally Dawson! Where the hell were you?! You better get in here right now or you can say goodbye to your house!"
Ally rushed in at her dad's orders, and he slapped her on the way in. She was about to run up to her room before her dad yelled again. "Ally Dawson, wait right there."
She didn't listen.
"Ally! Stay down here!"
She didn't listen once again, but this time, he pulled out a knife and sliced it across her arm. She shrieked in surprise and pain, immediately stopping her ascent. He grabbed her and threw her back down the stairs. She screamed once again, but she was knocked out, sprawled out on the floor. No Austin was going to save her this time.
The next morning, she woke up on the empty driveway, all dirty and bloody. She looked at her watch. "5 in the morning? Phew! I have a few hours left."
She sprinted into her room, changed her clothes, and took a nice shower. She immediately made some breakfast and ran out the door to school.
At school...
"Ally! Have you been bullied so much that you have to end your own life?"
A kid was making fun of Ally because of all the cuts on her arm. She was at her locker, fighting hard not to lash out at the annoying kid. She put her textbook in her locker and went to class, ignoring all of the comments she heard behind her back.
"So, did nerd girl find her razor again?" Cassidy was bothering Ally at lunch today.
"There is no razor. Those cuts aren't from myself."
"Yeah, sure. And I guess that bump on your head is from your locker?"
Ally shook her head, breathing deeply to calm herself down. "Do you need to see a counselor? People with suicidal tendencies like you shouldn't be left without help."
"No, I don't need a counselor. Now please leave me alone."
"Yeah, right. Are you upset with yourself? Do people call you fat? Do people think you're a bitch?"
Ally rolled her eyes angrily. "No, but I bet people think you are..." she muttered under her breath. "What the hell did you just say?" Cassidy raised her fist before Austin came over. "Hey, Cassie, what are you talking about?"
Cassidy took this as her chance. "Oh, I was trying to help Ally here. I noticed she had cuts on her arm and I was concerned, so I tried to see if she needed a friend, but she turned me down."
Ally was screaming in fury on the inside.
"I tried to suggest counseling, but she lashed out at me. Austy, I'm scared. Please protect me!"
Finally, after a whole school year of countless days of bullying, Ally Dawson broke.
"You bitch."
Cassidy looked at her in mock surprise. "What?"
"I called you a bitch. Now shut up and don't play stupid." Cassidy was really surprised now. "Oh really? Does nerd girl finally want to speak up?"
"Yeah. I'm speaking up. How about you stop hiding behind your so-called boyfriend and actually fight me."
Ally stood up angrily, glaring at Cassidy. She raised a fist and punched Cassidy right in the face. "What the hell? Ally! Stop! Nerds shouldn't be violent!"
"NO! YOU FREAKING BULLIED ME FOR A WHOLE FREAKING SCHOOL YEAR! I'M DONE IGNORING YOU! AFTER ALL, IT ISN'T LIKE YOU WOULD STOP ANYWAY! I THINK YOU NEED TO LEARN A LESSON!"
A crowd had started to gather around the noise. Cassidy looked at Ally. She pretended to stay superior, even though many people could tell she was very afraid. "Well? Is that all you can do? Ugly and fat geeks like you deserve to kill yourselves."
Once again, Ally punched Cassidy, giving her a bloody nose. Cassidy was about to punch back before her wrist was grabbed and her hand was bent, slowly going farther. "Ally! Stop! You're going to break my wrist! Ally? ALLY!"
At Cassidy's screams, Ally let go, leaving her to gasp for her breath. That takes care of that problem.
When Ally went to class, she started to get dizzy. Her eyes started to close, but the teacher noticed bags under her eyes. "Ally? Are you okay? Do you need to go to the clinic?" All Ally could do was nod, before she passed out.
An hour later...
"Ally? Are you okay?" The nurse in the clinic was sitting at the bedside, inspecting her cuts. "You lost a lot of blood. You know, you really shouldn't hurt yourself like that. It can cause some bad permanent damage."
"But I didn't-"
"Sh...Calm down, you need to rest."
"But nurse, I never-"
"What did I tell you, Ally? You need to rest! Now go back to sleep! Your father is going to find a counselor for you."
Ally didn't bother arguing. She just fell back down, asleep. No doubt her dad was sober now, and he probably has no memory of hurting me. No doubt he would believe that I cut myself, too.
I know it wasn't the greatest chapter, but I was just really excited to write the whole Cassidy vs. Ally showdown. Of course, you definitely haven't seen the end of her. BTW my school is almost out! YAY! Just one more week and I'll be free for Summer! Please review if you want another chapter! R&R!
