Undercover
Stupid Whitney
The whole cafeteria turns their heads and slowly fade their conversations into hushed whispers while this happens. My first instinct is to hit her back and tackle her to the ground but I can't risk giving them another reason to think that I'm a cop. Instead I bring my hands to the red welting handprint across my cheek. It's sensitive to the touch and stings a lot, but it's not like I haven't gotten hurt worse before. My memory flashes back to when I broke my arm in 3rd grade. Some of my sister's friends dared me to climb onto my roof. Being a naïve little 9 year old, I did what they told me and went into my parents bedroom on the top floor and climbed out of their window. Their window lead right out onto the roof so it was relatively easy to get up. While I was walking around on the roof I lost my footing and slid off the roof and into the bush below. After that I only remember my sister leaning over me and trying to keep my eyes open. I could faintly hear sirens in the background but I slowly was pulled out of consciousness until the world was completely black.
My thoughts are pushed back when the blonde slaps me again across the other cheek. That took me by surprise again. Wow, that one stung worse. I already know that there will be marks there tomorrow. She throws a punch that I can tell was meant for my eye but due to her horrible aim only made it to my lip. I immediately taste the salty liquid filling up in my mouth. She brings her knee to my stomach and knocks the wind out of me. I bend over in pain and spit my blood out on the floor. I eyes squeeze shut in pain. I can just barely hear people cheering me on, telling me to fight back but I know that all I can do is sit there and take the punches. I look up at her and see the smirk spreading across her face. I spit out another puddle of blood and saliva that had been forming in my mouth. Perrie and Zayn walk over and push her a feet away from me. I can feel a hand on my back and on my arm helping me up. I already know that it's Liam. I see that behind this blonde chick, on the far side of the cafeteria, Harry stood leaning against the brick wall with a smug look on her face. Suddenly I wish had thrown a couple of punches at this chick to knock that smug expression right off of his face.
"Why would you do that Whitney?" Liam asks. Oh so that's her name. What an ugly name.
"Why don't you ask the slut yourself" she says and I scoff. What a hypocrite. Liam turns towards me with a quizzical expression on his face
I just shrug my shoulders "I have no idea what I did"
"Yeah right. Don't think that I didn't see your little encounter with Harry in the bathroom this morning"
By this time Harry has walked up behind Whitney and was boring his green eyes into mine. I was confused for a second until I remembered what happened when I had tried to change into some fresh clothes this morning.
"What happened Belle?" Liam asks. He sounds seriously hurt. This honestly was super funny. He sounds hurt and betrayed and I just got a beating for doing something that I didn't even do. The pained expression on Liam's face just made me want to burst into laughter. I know that seems harsh but seriously, if you could just see the puppy dog eyes and pouty lip he's giving me right now, you'd be laughing too. The whole cafeteria was silent, all eyes, including Harry's, on me waiting for an explanation. I'm pretty sure that 'hooking up' with two guys the first day I'm here won't be good for a reputation around here. I bite my lip and try to hold back the smile that threatens to take over my face. I can tell that my eyes are smiling for me and my cheeks are turning red, and not just from getting slapped.
Suddenly I just couldn't hold it in anymore. I let the laughter out. I tilted my head back and laughed. My sides where starting to hurt so I hugged them and continued to laugh. The sound of my laughter echoed throughout the cafeteria and I'm sure it probably sounded ridiculous but I couldn't help it. This whole situation was ridiculous.
"Excuse me?" Whitney says
I try to calm my laughter but that just triggers more. I'm on the verge of tears and out of the corner of my eye I can see Perrie and Zayn about to laugh also. I start taking deep breaths and let my laughter die out.
"I would't really count that as an encounter. More like an unwanted exposure" I say and I can hear the gasps from the girls around the cafeteria. I'm guessing that Harry is the hottie of the gang and anyone would kill to see him naked.
"What happened Belle?" Liam sounds angered
"Well I may or may not have accidentally totally not on purpose seen him naked.." I say nervously
Before I know what's happening Liam is pushing past me and walking over to Harry, throwing a punch in his face. God damn it.

Notes
I'M SO SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know I took the weekend off but I can't help it, I needed a small break to hang out with friends and catch up on schoolwork! I'll be back to updating daily until Friday, when I leave for my cabin!! There's no wifi and I type on my computer so that may be an issue. And trust me, don't think that this cabin trip is a fun vacation from writing, because there isn't even plumbing or running water there. We have to use water bottles and lake water. And we have to use an outhouse infested with spiders, which happen to be a big fear of mine. :/ But I get back Monday, but then I go straight to Chicago, so hopefully there's wifi in the hotel! Pray that there is! Anyway, I'm sorry this is so short but I've got a ton of schoolwork! I'll most likely be updating this on wednesday and Just A Cook tomorrow! Enjoy!-T
