Rumours

"You're ugly, useless and no one wants you, Puckett!"

"You are dumb and a shame on humanity!"

Those were the kind of insults Samantha was getting on a regular basis. She would walk down the halls, being laughed at or being harassed. This time, she couldn't be bothered to fight back. First of all, she wouldn't let the comments get to her. Then, they got worse. Some kids would follow her home just to annoy her, when she would turn around, the kids would laugh or shout something very hurtful about her.

With Carly in Italy, she didn't have many people. Wendy moved to Pittsburgh. Gibby started a private school just down the road from his house. Brad started Briarwood a few weeks ago. Pete was accepted into a sports academy. That just left her. And the nub...

He was so caring and sweet to her. He would buy her smoothies, he would watch movies with her. And, best of all, he finally built up the courage to ask her out again. But this time, it was different, they didn't have anyone there complaining they spent too much time together or complaining they argued too much.

She couldn't tell anyone this was going on. Her mother wouldn't be able to do anything anyway. Telling a teacher was just childish and a stupid idea altogether. But she knew Freddie cared for her. He would totally overreact, Sam thought to herself, He is with me a lot, he has probably already noticed all this. Maybe it was best as a secret for now though...

"Freddie just asked you out because he felt sorry for you!"

"You're just a loser, Sam Puckett!"

"Oh no, don't use your butter sock on me! I will tell a teacher!"

The jokes had gone way too far. Sam's anger bubbled through her body. She slammed her locker and stormed out the school doors. Kids followed her and kept shouting stuff at her.

"Is Puckett too scared to stick up for herself?" Sam turned around at this voice. She knew exactly who it was, she shook and trembled just thinking about them. Her old friend, Dana. Former friend.

"Shut it, Dana!" She had had enough. If Dana wanted to start too, all Sam could say was 'bring it on!'

"Ooh, I'm not scared of a mouse. Look at me, I'm Sam Puckett. The tiniest mouse in the whole of the land!" Dana jumped around, imitating Sam.

"It is better than being a gorilla!"

"What did you just call me?"

"A gorilla! Do you have a problem with that?" Sam yelled, stepping towards her old friend and her gang.

"Ha! At least, I'm not a girl everyone feels sorry for. Oh sorry. I forgot. No one feels sorry for you because no one should. You are just a waste of space, Puckett!"

"Thanks, but I didn't ask for your opinion!"

The brown eyed boy was just walking home from fencing practise. Lucky for him, he got to miss an hour of school every day to go for an extra fencing lesson down at the gym.

A large crowd caught his attention. He slowly approached it as he heard a small yell. He had heard that yell somewhere before, he was sure he had. And how right he was.

The crowd started to fade away. People came and people left. As Freddie got closer, he saw a blonde figure. A familiar blonde person. His girlfriend.

That thought sprung to his mind as he pushed people out the way to be able to see exactly what was going on.

"Oh, bring it, Puckett!" Dana yelled.

Sam moved her arm to pull out her butter sock from her bag but as she extended her arm out, she felt a hand grab her wrist. She looked up...

"What's going on here then?"

"F-Freddie?" Samantha jumped into his arms. Tears came gushing out. She knew she had to tell Freddie everything. The bullying. The name calling. The rumours. And what was happening then...

"Look who it is! The boyfriend has shown up. The techy nerdy boyfriend." Dana chuckled, looking at her gang, "We're off. But we aren't finished with you, Puckett."

As soon as the gang left, the audience left too. Sam was still terrified so she stayed in Freddie's arms.

"What has happened, Sammy? Was that girl Dana horrible again? I told you, you don't need friends like tha-"

"It wasn't just her." She admitted, "Since you have been gone like the last hour of the day and since all our friends moved away, kids have been bullying me. It's not just one kid. It feels like everyone. No one stops them either. I didn't want to tell you because I-I was worried, okay? Too worried, especially for your safety too."

"I would've been fine, it's you that needs help."

"I don't need help..." She muttered.

"Let's get you home. Everything is okay." He picked up both their bags and slowly walked down the road with her, "I love you. Always remember that."

AN = I've been bullied an awful lot unfortunately, and the fanfiction universe has always welcomed me after a hard day. Reviews to me are like Sam and her ham!
