Rebekah's POV
I took the day off from school. Little did I know, I had made a mistake.
Because the next day I came back, people were staring at me. None of my friends had talked to me. I hadn't seen them. At lunch, I was left sitting along, when I see Nicole standing on a table.
"There she is, everybody. Rebekah Irwin. Stay away everybody, if her mom is dangerous, she might be dangerous too. Who knows, maybe she already has a criminal record".
"What a pathetic human being. I almost pity her. I mean, her boyfriend cheating on her. News flash Beki, Rose and Jess were just pretending to be your friends".
"Stop".
"Who would want to be with a freak like you? No one. I hope your mom finds you". The tears run down my face. I look to see Jess, Rose, Carson, and Zach sitting with Nicole and the popular kids.
"Stop nicole. No one wants to listen to you being a spoiled brat". I look to see the schools 'bad boy', Julian.
I run to the bathroom. I wipe the tears. I feel like the little sanity I had, had just been ripped away. I crouch down in the corner of the bathroom. I skipped 4th and 5th period, sitting there, just crying.
Occasionally, girls would come in there, call me a name I perfer not to say, nd go into the other bathrooms instead.
When the final bell rang, I got myself together. I wiped my red and puffy face.I applied some of my spare makeup that I had in the bag. I headed to cheer practice.
"Okay, Rebekah, I need to see you". I follow coach into her office.
"I heard you attacked Nicole. She is a sweetheart. I will not tell your dad, but I am kicking you off the cheer team. We don't tolerate that sort of behavior here".
I nod my head. Seeing a bench at the park, I sit down.
No one can know about this. Not even the boys.
When I get home, dad is making dinner. "Hey baby, how was your day?" He comes over and kisses my forehead.
"Good", I lie.
Lying. It hurt me to have to lie to him. What was I supposed to do? Was I supposed to tell him, and get more bullied at school?
Was it even bullying? I think to myself. You probably deserve it.
"Beki, dinner time". I wipe the tear that was shed and sit down at the table. Michael looks at me. "Are you okay?" The attention was now on me. "Yeah. It was just a long day". It wasn't a complete lie, it just wasn't the complete truth either.
"On Saturday, we were thinking of driving down to the beach. You can invite your friends to go there". Dad says.
"Yeah, you can invite your boyfriend". If only Calum knew.
"Aww, she's embarrassed". Luke adds.
"Did you see your boyfriend today?"
A tear rolls down my face. "SHUT UP!" I yell.
"Rebekah Marie, that was rude. They were just joking".
I get up and run to my room. So much for trying to keep a secret.
