Fanfiction - Alvin and the chipmunks -"How long I can last"
Chapter 1 – "Day that changed everything"
In our school we have a school bully - Derek. This highly prideful fellow who considers himself to be the centre of the world is actually one big jerk who harasses weaker than himself for fun… And unfortunately, I became his next victim. Derek has chosen me as his new target simply because I am the only one of so-called 'nerds' who can stand up to him and also because for some reason he hates me ...
Of course, as a person who believes in the human potential, I tried to turn Derek into a regular member of society, but after a while I realised that some people cannot be changed.
I tried everything I could think about. I tried to talk to him, I tried to convince him to change his way of being, I tried to solve his problem with a desire to harass others. I even built a big robot to keep him away from bullying! But none of it worked! And now my harassment got worse.
At first, Derek and his friends only called me nicknames. Then they started taking my books, hanging me up in high places and locking me in lockers. Now they got tired of the usual bullying and began to use violence against me. They started doing it 2 weeks ago:
#Flashback#
- "Okay. That's all for today's classes. You can leave now"- Mrs Smith said placing the chalk on her desk.
- "Ohhhh, finally that's it! I thought I was going to die of boredom" - Alvin cried out while getting up of his seat.
- "Alvin that was rude to say" - Simon scolded him with stern look as he began to put his books back in his backpack.
- "Oh, come on Simon! What's so cool about maths anyway!" - Alvin said looking at his brother in disbelief.
- "Alvin maths is very important and really interesting if you get to understand it, for example ..."
- "Oh NO! I don't want to hear it la la! la! la! la! la!" - Alvin interrupted the chipmunk speech and rushed out of class while clogging his ears. Simon sighed and watched his brother run out of the classroom. Theodor got up from his seat and looked at the spot where his older brother was standing just a moment ago. In a blink of an eye, he noticed the things Alvin left behind.
- "Ah! Alvin you forgot your backpack! "-Theodore shouted. Then he took Alvin's backpack and ran after him. Simon chuckled at the Theodore's actions and then also left the classroom. The two brothers were trying to catch up with the last chipmunk.
- "Alvin! wait! I have your backpack!" - Theodore shouted, capturing the attention of his brother. Alvin turned around and saw his brothers running towards him. He stopped and decided to wait for them to catch up with him. When the chipmunks were near Alvin, he saw a Theodore who had his stuff. Alvin looked at his hands and back and saw that he didn't have his backpack.
- "Oh! Theodor my little brother, thanks I completely forgot about my things "- Alvin said with his hand reaching out.
- "No problem Alvin. But next time please don't forget your stuff" - Theodore said handing the backpack to his brother.
- "oh, of course, of course... But please understand Theodore when I heard Simon trying to explain how maths can be fun and interesting, I just had to get as far away from him as possible! "- Alvin cried out loud. Simon face-palmed himself.
- "Alvin you know I'm right next to you, right?! "-Simon said annoyed.
- "Ah, yeah…yeah"- Alvin commented ignoring his brother's presence -"Um.. , look at the time "- Alvin looked at his non-existent watch – "I will be late for my football classes, guys we will meet at home, okay? Bye! "- Alvin waved to his brothers and ran for his training without waiting for their reply.
- "I think we should go, too. You have an appointment with Eleonore, right? "-Simon asked Theodore.
- "yeah, we're going to her house to bake some sweets. When you're done with your extra classes, you can drop in for some piece of cake "- Theodor said smiling.
- "Okay, maybe I'll come. See you later "- Simon waved to his brother and then started heading to class.
Simon was going to his extra math classes when he was suddenly grabbed by his collar.
- "Hey four-eyes, where do you think you're going? "- Simon turned his head and saw Derek speaking to him. His posture stiffened after seeing his harasser and his thoughts reminded him of their previous meetings, which weren't the most pleasant experiences.
- "Uh…um, I was just about to go to my extra classes "- Simon explained nervously. Derek looked at him with an evil grin on his face.
- "hey chipmunk… You see, I'm a little bored today and I just happened to find you. So, let's have some fun "- Derek said amused. ' No please, not again! ' Simon thought. Derek lifted Simon up by his collar and started walking with him towards the empty bathrooms.
For Simon, one of the most important things was studying, so the possibility of missing his classes because of Derek's boredom seemed unacceptable to him.
- "Um Derek?, you see, I have extra math classes today that I would very much like to attend. S-so maybe you would consider giving me a break today? "- Simon asked Derek with pleading eyes. His oppressor looked at him with disgust in his eyes.
- "Oooh?, so nerd wants to go to his pointless classes"- Derek said mockingly.
- "Well, I wouldn't say it's pointless. On the contrary, there are many useful things to learn from these lessons "- Simon said interrupting Derek's previous talk, which made Derek's face turn into a grimace. At that moment Simon knew that by interrupting Derek he dug his own grave, but he couldn't take his words back, so he continued – "Hah... But, leaving this aside, I'm really glad that you understand my situation…Sooo maybe you'll let me go and we'll continue our meeting another time?" - Simon said hesitantly, hoping that Derek will listen to his words.
- "You think you can talk back to me, you piece of shit!"- Derek said angrily.
- " I-i didn't want to. I just want to go to class!" -Simon responded nervously. Derek tightened his grip on Simon's collar and speeded up his walking pace.
- " Ooo…I'm so pissed off right now! And you know what that means, right? "- Derek asked with a mocking smile. Simon flinched after hearing his words
Simon knew it wouldn't end up well for him. He tried to come up with an escape plan, but he was so panic that he couldn't get his thoughts together. Before Simon noticed it, he and Derek went into the abandoned school bathroom. It was a favourite place for bullies, mostly because the teachers never check this spot.
As soon as Simon found out where he was, his heart rate sped up. Derek noticed a change in chipmunk's behaviour and laughed ominously.
- "Oh? Simon, are you getting scared? Haha! "- Derek said with a laugh.
- "T.t..To. be honest, fear is an innate reaction to danger, which has strong roots in human evolution. If. people did not feel fear, they would not be able to protect themselves from the threats that could lead to a loss of health and even life. S.s..So it is theoretically normal for me to feel anxiety in this kind of situation "- Simon has started nervously babbling.
- "Agh! SHUT up, idiot! "- Derek yelled and threw Simon against the bathroom wall. Simon whined in pain – "Just hearing you speaking drives me crazy"- Simon couldn't get a word out of himself he simply looked at Derek in terror.
It was the first time that Derek had used violence against him. Usually when Simon was harassed, he would only end up with accidental bruises or emotional trauma. For example, one-time Derek and his buddies put him in a tyre and rolled him off a hill in the park. Simon then crashed into a tree and had bruises for 3 days... or when they locked him in a locker for the whole day. Thankfully, at the end of the day the janitor heard him and let him out of there. Of course, Simon lied about what happened that he ended up in the locker in the first place, but the point is that so far, the injuries he suffered were accidental. Derek has never used pure violence on Simon.
This was the first time a chipmunk had experienced this kind of abuse. It was a shock to him.
Derek took advantage of Simon's surprise and approached him. Then he started kicking his stomach. Simon whined from the pain and individual tears rushed down his cheeks.
Everything hurt and Simon felt his organs screaming in pain. The situation grew even worse with Derek's laughter. This sickening laughter full of excitement and pleasure…Simon hated it.
After 10 minutes of suffering, Derek grabbed Simon by his collar and brought him closer to himself. Then he looked at him with satisfaction and said:
- "Hey you little piece of shit! if you ever tell anyone what happened here... "-Derek raised his hand and Simon covered himself with his hands and started shaking. An ominous smile appeared on Derek's face–"I see that you understand "- Derek let go of Simon and went out of the bathroom.
On that day, I sat there for another two hours crying. Since then my life has become a terrible nightmare.
