Who Said It Was Gonna Be Easy?

My day continued like that until my third lesson where vic texted me to tell me he was going to go and put some books in his locker, asking me to meet him there. On the way there, I bumped into rian. He shoved me up against the wall and I couldn't help but remember it was how he'd been stood when he was kissing jack. Anger surged through me and I shoved him off me. He clearly got annoyed at my lack of submission and punched me hard in the face, smacking my head against the wall. I cried out in pain and tears spilt over from my eyes, a mixture of pain, anger and sadness. My jaw hurt like a motherfucker. Rian stamped hard on my foot the punched me in the stomach so hard I felt like I was going to throw up. I keeled over which was a big mistake because rian kneed me in the face, his knee cap connecting with my lip. I felt it swell immediately. He laughed at me as I stood back up straight, feeling really light headed. He then turned his back on me and simply walked away. I sunk down to the floor and got my phone out. I called vic and he answered straight away.

"Alex, babe, where are you?"

"rian hurt me again. I'm outside my classroom" I told him.

"he did what?! are you fucking kidding me?!"

"vic..please just come get me" I cried.

"okay, okay. I'm on my way. Where has he hurt you?"

"my jaw, my head, my lip, my foot and he also punched me in the stomach pretty hard"

"I'm going to fucking kill him" vic said as he stormed on to the corridor. He spotted me and hung up, running to my side.

"c'mon, school nurse" he said after he'd examined me for a minute.

"vic.." I protested.

"now!" he said forcefully. I got up and set off walking to the school nurse ignoring the hand vic held out to me.

"Alex!"

"what!?"

"don't just ignore me! I'm making you go to the school nurse because I care about you"

"if you don't want me to ignore you then don't shout at me"

"you're right, I'm sorry, babe. Cm'ere" he put his arm out to me and I let him pull me close.


After we'd been to see the nurse, vic carted me off to see the headteacher instead of taking me back to lesson. he confidently asked for my timetable to be changed so that I wasn't anywhere near rian for any lesson or that he was transferred into my lessons. After talking for a while, he told us he'd see what he could do. We left his office and vic declared we have a free period to take a break. I cuddled up to him and sighed.

"I'm still gonna go after rian"

"please just leave it. It's not worth it. It'll just end up worse for me, please don't"

"it's so worth it" vic protested.

"no, vic, please don't"

"do you really not want me to get him back for all the things he's done to you?"

"I do but..no, not like this. Please"

"fine. But if he does anything again, I'm not even going to ask for your permission"

"whatever" I said in annoyance. It was so unfair. Why could nobody understand that I didn't want rian to get beat up for me? I'm not worth it. It would end up worse for me if anyone did anything to him. Why could nobody just accept that? Although there was another reason. Jack clearly liked rain more than he liked me. I was in love with jack, I don't want to hurt him by hurting the things he loves.

"are you mad, babe?"

"no"

"yeah you are"

"why ask then?"

"because I care about you a lot and I don't like it when you're mad"

"stop saying you'll beat up rian then. If you really cared you'd listen to what I'm asking of you"

"ok fine, I won't do it" he kissed me on the head.


Vic insisted to my teachers that he was staying with me for the rest of my lessons that day so they passed quickly. Its a shame lunch didn't follow the trend.
