Okay, you saw April's day back, now for Shell's. Note that she is tromping around with a giant gash on her cheek that is impossible to hide. Hey, guys, check out Em and my newest story, The Lost Rhodes! We posted it yesterday, it's a 9 to 5 crossover with Glee about Doralee Rhodes and April Rhodes if they met, check it out!
DISCLAIMER: We owneth not. Upon owning there would be a lot of changes and April would do her Sing From Your Hoo Hoo song.
Shelby's POV
Kyle walked me to class the next day. His body was tense and he seemed ready to fight. I really don't blame him. I mean, I would be angry too if something had happened to him, like it happened to me. Today had been bad for me whenever Kyle or April weren't around. They stared at my face like I was some kind of freak.
Now I know how Elphaba felt in Wicked, I thought with a quiet laugh.
Finally we had made it to my Geometry class, Kyle twirled me around to face him.
"Are you sure you will be okay?" he asked with worry.
I smiled gently at him, trying my best to hide the fear and pain that was in my body right now. He didn't need to worry I could try and handle myself.
"I'll be fine, and if I'm not I'll be in the bathroom. Just go get April if something happens. But I mean it, Kyle, don't worry about me. I love you," I said placing a hand on his cheek.
He grinned at me, "I know, baby, but I love you too and that's why I worry about you. But I promise I won't worry that much," he said before kissing me on the cheek (my good one) and headed off to his class.
Before I walked into the classroom a let out a deep breath and held my head high. I was going to be strong or at least try to. I walked in and quickly sat down ignoring all the stares and shocked faces.
Be strong Shell, just ignore them and then you can get away, I said, trying to encourage myself, but the thoughts went away when someone slammed their hand hard on my desk. I jumped and looked up to see Terri staring at me with a grin. My blood boiled ad I put on a disgusted face.
"What do you want, Terri?" I asked with venom. Her grin widened when she noticed I was nervous.
"Oh I was just wondering, Miss Shelby, if the cut open cheek of yours was a bad as Bryan said it was. And I believe he did a very good job at it if I do say so," she said, reaching her hand to touch my hurt cheek, but I quickly knocked her hand away.
"Lay off my face, Terri." I growled.
She smiled and slammed my hands onto the desk. What I hadn't noticed about Terri was that she had an amazing grip.
"Bryan come here," Terri called for Bryan at the door.
He saw me and grin as he walked over and took over for Terri of holding my wrists down to where I couldn't move them.
"I'm going to touch it Shelby, no harm done," Terri laughed as his hand neared my cheek.
I struggled and fought again Bryan. I didn't want to feel the pain again, I already felt enough. My heart raced when Terri's hand was juts inches from my face.
"NO!" I yelled like really loud and Bryan let go of me.
I fell out of my chair and onto the hard ground. Sadly I had landed on my hurt cheek and I could feel some blood soaking my hair. I raised up to see everyone in the class looking at me like I wasn't human. I touched my cheek and felt burning pain radiating from it. Blood covered my hand. I looked to Bryan and Terri to see their faces shocked as well. Thank goodness the teacher was still in the teachers lounge.
Be strong, please be strong, I told myself but I could fight the pain and tears anymore.
I ran past Bryan and Terri and ran into the bathroom. Not caring if I was bleeding or not, I crunched down against the bathroom wall. Letting the hot tears and blood fall down my face. Right now all I could think about was how many times I was hurt and my parents didn't care, they gave me a aspirin and told me to suck it up. Which made me feel worse and the tears ran faster. The bathroom door opened and I heard a high pitched gasp.
"Go away, please just go away!" I said with a sob.
But I was surprised to hear my best friends voice, which was like music to my ears,
"Shell…" Her voice was filled with worry and hurt.
There ya go! Another chapter, PLEASE REVIEW!
