I shook my head and didn't reply. I went to Calum's room and saw him on his phone laying on his bed. I walked in and said, "Calum, there's a problem." He looked at me and said, "What?"
Nicole: I was trying to send a picture of what Ashton had surprised me with to Taylor but I accidentally clicked the wrong contact and sent it to Hannah.
Calum: Oh, did she reply back?
Nicole: Yeah, she said that I was gonna get it when we get back to school.
Calum: What?! She can't do that! She should know not to mess with you after you humiliated her.
Nicole: I know, right?
Calum: Was that the only thing she said?
Nicole: Today, yes. Overall...
Calum: Oh no, Nicole. Don't tell me she said other stuff before and you didn't say anything.
Nicole: I didn't worry about it before! Now she's serious and really angry at me.
Calum: Okay, you know what I would do?
Nicole: What?
Calum: When you get back to school on Monday, you avoid Hannah.
Nicole: Avoid her?
Calum: Yes, avoid her.
Nicole: But what if its at lunch? Do I just go sit at another table?
Calum: You got it. And if she ends up catching up to you, you tell someone.
Nicole: What, like a teacher?
Calum: Yes. But that's only if you can't handle it yourself.
Nicole: Got it.
I left Calum's room and went to mine.
AT SCHOOL ON MONDAY
IN THE HALLS
I was talking to Taylor, Jessica, and Emma in the halls near my locker. I immediately saw Hannah walking up behind Emma. I said to them, "Ugh, look who's coming." They all turned and looked at Hannah. Then they moved out of the way when Hannah approached me.
Hannah: Well lookie who's here.
(People crowd around)
Nicole: It's me.
Hannah: Yep. Boy, am I gonna enjoy messing with you.
Nicole: Hannah, you messed with me once and I'm sure you wouldn't like the crowd around us to be reminded of how the 5 guys your adored turned you down.
Crowd: Oooh...
Hannah: You just have to keep your mouth moving, don't you? You just can't stop.
Nicole: Hannah, if you know what's best for you, you should just back off.
Crowd: Oooh....
Hannah: Oh, you mean I should back off from your little words that are gonna beat me up? Ha! Your words can't hurt me.
Nicole: And neither can yours to me.
Hannah: My words may not be able to hurt you but my fist can.
Nicole: Hannah, violence isn't gonna solve anything.
Hannah: YEAH, SURE. (Punches Nicole in stomach)
Nicole: (groans)
Taylor: Hey, you back off, Hannah!
Hannah: Oh! I almost forgot about you two traitors.
Emma: We're not traitors. We are on the good side.
Hannah: Oh, just stop it.
Jessica: Nicole?
Emma: Whoa, she's not breathing!!
Hannah: What? What are you talking about?
Taylor: HANNAH! WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO?
Hannah: I didn't do anything!
Emma: Yeah, you did! You freakin' punched her in the gut!
Hannah: I-I didn't mean to hurt her!
Jessica: Oh, just save it, Hannah!
Emma: Nicole, can you hear me? Somebody, go get a teacher!
