Emma paused for a second and had thoughts around her head thinking about what Victor did to her. When the bell rang everyone started going out the classroom doors and walked around to go to lunch. Emma ignored that she skipped class until someone bumped into her and fell "Watch where your going, Fatty" Emma looked up and saw Jake looking straight at her while Ally is beside him "Can you move or what?" Jake continued, Emma didn't say anything and crawled herself to the opposite way so they can pass. Emma stood up after they left to the cafeteria "Emma, Emma!" she looked up and saw Melina running towards her, Melina always made her smile whenever she is excited. Melina hugged her then said "Guess who got an 'A'", "The janitor" Emma said sarcastically "No, me..your always saying the janitor" Melina said as she frowned "The janitor sees everything" said Emma, "Yeah, yeah..lets go to lunch so we can't be the last ones" smiled Melina.
As both girls got their trays, Melina walked Emma to a table where some girls told Melina to sit with them. Emma sat next to Melina and started eating, she said nothing and listened to the conversation they had. All that Emma could think about was what Victor had said to her "Emma?" said Melina she didn't reply "Emma!" Melina shook her "Huh?" she said in surprise. "You ok" said Melina "Yeah..yeah I'm fine" Emma nervously giggled, a girl that was next to her interrupted them and said "Hey! Is that a slap mark on your cheek, I think its bigger", Melina turned Emma's face to see her cheek "What happened to you?" she asked "I-Its nothing, trust me" Emma said, "Well its something, lets go" Melina told her friends that they'll be back and grabbed Emma's arm as they walked their way to the bathroom.
"C'mon Emma, spill it" said Melina, "Ok, ok well..Victor slapped me..." she said, Melina was furious after she explained why he slapped her. "But, please don't tell anyone" she said, "Well..but..ok fine but if this happens again I will have to talk with Jake and company" Melina said, they both hugged each other and walked out the bathroom and to the cafeteria.
As both girls finished their food, the bell rang and they all went to their last class. Both the girls sat next to each other and talked as they waited for the teacher to prepare them a lesson. Everyday, Jake, Ally and his friends would treat her like trash but Melina would always save the day by making her feel better and always be there for her, somewhat like a parent. Emma was very grateful to have a friend like her. The next day, Emma walked all the way to school since her parents aren't there to drop her off but she kind of liked it. Once she was their someone tapped on the back of her shoulder, it was Jake, and turned around "Um, hey" she couldn't help but smile, "Oh, I just wanted to say that you're the WORST person I've ever dated, I hope you die in pain" said Jake as he walked away with a smile on his face, he loved it when she was sad because he would always comfort her, but this time he wanted her to feel pain and it made him quite happy.
There again she was in the bathroom, crying, but she stopped she had a little hope in her telling her to be strong and don't worry about those two devil birds. She wiped her tears and walked out the bathroom to her first class of the day. Many hours later, the bell rang for lunch time. After Emma got her tray from the lunch lady, Melina waved at her to get her attention so she can sit with her and the rest of the people at the table. As she was walked through a trail, she walked close towards Ally, Jake and the rest of the gang once she was close Ally purposely lifted her leg up and Emma fell with the food all over her and everyone around her laughed except Melina and the rest of the people at the table, well some of them weren't paying attention cause they were on their phones. Emma ran away while everyone laughing behind her, she finally found a way to go to the bathroom to clean herself up. Melina also made her way to the bathroom and helped Emma with the food on her clothes.
Melina was very furious at what Ally did, so she left Emma cleaning herself and went out the bathroom to the cafeteria to have a little chat with Ally and the rest of the gang.
