I sigh in relief when the bell finally rings. The boy, whose name I learn is Hidan, is up and out of the classroom before I can gather my things. It's strange how eager he is to leave when he seemed to be enjoying himself so much. Either way, I can feel the tightness in my chest start to loosen and calm returns to my mind. Not wanting to be late yet again, I grab my books and head straight to my next class.
Everything seems to be going well when I arrive to my next class. A few minutes before the bell rings to mark the start of second period, I see a head of silver walk in. I don't have to look twice to know that it's Hidan again. Nervousness sets in as he approached and takes a seat next to mine. The knot in my chest is already tightening up. I know for a fact that he's not in this class, he must've fallowed me.
"Hey Mouse Girl," he calls out, loud enough for everyone else to hear. I blush whishing more than anything that he'd leave me alone. "What the fuck is your problem with me anyway?"
I didn't answer, much too terrified to speak. This seems to annoy him, and he rolls his eyes. "Come on, you heard me. You fucking scared or something?"
Yes, I think. That's exactly it. Please leave me alone.
But I can't find the courage to say any of it out loud. He's growing angrier, and I'm only growing more scared.
"Hey you dumb mousy bitch. I asked you a fuckin' question. Didn't your parents teach you any fuckin' manners?"
The stress is building, I can't think. I need to get out of here.-
"Huh. Figures. I bet your family's so fuckin' poor they don't have time to teach you any fuckin' manners."
And suddenly I'm on the outside, watching myself shout back at him. "Don't you talk about my family that way!"
The class falls silent. I'm standing now, looking down at Hidan. I see the biggest smirk yet stretched across his face. I'm painfully aware of my classmates staring at me, and in that moment I want nothing more than to crawl in a hole and die. Meekly I pick up my chair, which I must've pushed over in my anger, and sit at my table. Hidan's still grinning as the bell rings and stands and leaves. And finally, allowing me to catch my breath. He doesn't leave without having the last word " 'S good to know you've got some backbone on you, Mousy Girl."
