"Slut"
"Whore"
"Ugly"
"Bitch"
The normal suspects hurled at me, they were circling me and yelling names. We were outside a shop in plain sight of many people, but nobody cared enough to stop them abusing me. They laughed as I just stood there and took it all.
"Cat got your tongue bitch ?" Yvonne cackled at me. I watched her Hitch her skirt up higher, as a flock of college boys strolled past, catching her attention. God that's so pathetic, why not just offer yourself to them on a plate? And she calls me a slut ? I stopped myself from saying anything knowing from experience that if I responded things would just get significantly worse for me.
I was numb. They had found me on the floor outside the local co-op a mere 20 minutes after Matt.. Broke up with me.
Seeing them approach I had to quickly wipe my tears before they sensed weakness. But after what matt had put me through I couldn't even respond. I was all too used to it by now.
"Get up" someone pulled at my collar yanking me as they started circling me again.
They forced me down an alley behind the safety and security of the co-op. Losing sight of the bright lights I just sighed as I prepared myself for what was to come. Yvonne sauntered ahead and I was pushed after her, the rest of their footfalls still heavy behind me. Yanked to a halt my eyes started to adjust to the darkness as I felt a tingling sensation on my left cheek and I realised I had fallen to the floor.
Slapped. Punched. Kicked. Over and over again I can't say I was surprised, it happens every day, but for once this was different. Where I normally felt the physical pain from being attacked. Today I felt nothing at all I was still numb.
'Your insecure, don't know what for your turning heads when you walk through the door'
Yvonne’s ringtone sang out pausing the girls in there act, and snapping me out of my thoughts. Pulling a disgusted look at me she took out her phone and pulled it to her ear speaking in dulcet tones into the receiver.
I winced at the song god if these girls hadn't every day for the past 5 years beat the shit out of me then I may just have been tempted to critique there music tastes.
One direction. Eugghhh. Don't get me wrong I respect the guys for following their dreams and all, but how fucking cheesy can you get ?
"Let's roll guys" Yvonne shouted, I let out a sigh realising that they will leave me alone now, well at least for today.
"Bye babe" Yvonne sarcastically let out a smirk. "See you tomorrow, miss you already!" Followed by her 'crew' she walked out onto the deserted street. And finally I could be left to cry.
Her final words were the thing that broke me 'babe' that word is never going to come out of Matt’s mouth again concerning me. It’s amazing how one word can change so dramatically, that word used to be the one that put a smile on my face and could bring me up from any type of mood. But now I was disgusted with the word, I never wanted to hear it again in my entire life.
I cried un till no more tears would come, but I couldn't move a muscle. So I did the only thing that saved me from myself in times like this.
I sang:
'Time to lay claim to the evidence
Fingerprints sold me out
But our footprints washed away
From the docks downtown
It's been getting late for days
And I think myself deserving of a little time off
We can kick it here for hours
And just mouth off about the world
And how we know it's going straight to hell’
I smiled to myself at the relief I could feel just from one song from that one amazing band. Now that's what I call a song. I softly continued on getting lost in the music.
‘Pass me another bottle, honey
The Jager's so sweet
But if it keeps you around, then I'm down
Meet me on Thames Street
I'll take you out
Though I'm hardly worth your time
In the cold, you look so fierce
But I'm warm enough
Because the tension's like a fire
We'll hit South Broadway in a matter of minutes
And like a bad movie, I'll drop a line
Fall in the grave I've been digging myself
But there's room for two
Six feet under the stars'
Louis POV
'Bleeuuuggghhhh' Niall screeched as he piled out the van and the cold air hit him. The rest of us cracked up at his reaction.
'I told you to wear a hoddie Niall' Liam scolded pausing before leading us down a dead end alley so we could get to the shops before anyone noticed us.
'SORRY DADDY DIRECTION' we all screeched in his face before running off.
Niall ran ahead beginning to become lured by the prospect of food. When suddenly he stopped dead: causing a pile up of bodies.
Cracking up at our compromising position Zayn, Harry and I detangled ourselves and looked up as Niall told us to shut up.
Then we heard it all 5 of us, the subtle, soft voice of a girl singing to herself. I looked around at the guys in wonder.
'She... She sounds so sad' Liam choked out with tears in his eyes.
I creeped forward and heard the boy’s footsteps behind me as I peered down the alley way looking for the voice.
Brits POV
Finishing the final note of my song, I looked up and saw 5 shadows down the end of the alley.
I found my voice after hours of not speaking a single word 'Yo- Youu can't hurt me anymore then you already have, I'm less breakable then you think...' My breath caught in my throat as I took a closer look at the shadows and they began walking towards me.
Stepping into the light I looked at them and realised who they were.
Something within me snapped.
