Chapter 11

It took a good story, but I convinced the school nurse that I had fallen down the stairs at the library to receive all of my injuries. I guess I was lucky that I wasn't too horribly beaten; my stomach hurt like hell the next day, but the only marks I had were across my back and on my right hip and leg. It was hard to walk a little bit at first, but now I'm getting to class just fine without any staring.

Aelita won't even look at me. Fine. I don't want to see that bitch either. She can have her bastard boyfriend, see if I care. As far as I'm concerned, she's as well off as that bimbo Sissi. Odd and Ulrich now burst into laughter, Yumi included, whenever I walk past them in the halls now, but I don't care about them, either.

I told her. She's going to pay. They all will.

It's been days since my incident with Aelita and her gang. I started another notebook after tearing up and throwing away the one with her name in it. I still write poems, though, but they're kind of dark. I don't really want to repeat any of them right now…

My daily life has become really weird. Usually kids have school, then something they go home to, like a sport or hobby, or a girlfriend or boyfriend, but not me. Not anymore. I used to have Aelita, but now I don't even want to think of her. But I can't help it.

Now all I have is just school. I wake up, go to class, then I come back to my dorm and sleep or write. I know it isn't healthy, so of course my mind wanders every now and then back to her…but my thoughts aren't as nice anymore.

I think a lot lately of all of them. Of Aelita, Ulrich, Yumi, that Odd kid, and especially Jeremie. I try to remember everything I had read about their 'Lyoko' world and wish I had learned more.

It seems like Jeremie was never in any danger. Really, when I think about it, none of the logs were of him facing the X.A.N.A. virus, or of him going into towers, or whatever those things were called. It was just him at his computer, typing away as his friends and 'supposed' true love were fighting for the world.

But, when I ponder some more, that does seem like him. I mean, where was he that night back when Aelita blew me off and Odd and Ulrich beat the hell out of me? Do you mean to tell me that he was just sitting up there, waiting for her to come running back to him while he sent their friends out to finish me off so he can have her privately in his room without anyone to snitch or interrupt?

And of course he had 'a want to materialize her along with the need to.' It makes me sick to think of her lying on his bed again, him taking her right there, with her not knowing anything better than the pleasure and his lies that he loves her. Any guy would want a fuck bunny.

But that's just like him. That's just like him! Sit back and let everything work out for you. Sure, Your Highness, let me get that on a silver platter for you.

I'm sick of it. I'm just so damn sick of him. So I've made up my mind for the last time. He has been the little master in command behind his friends, but now they will all see what happens when he's taken out of the picture.


Ugh, sorry again for the shortness. Two chapters left! Please drop a review if you have a chance: )
