One Little Tweet

Chapter 2

Senior year, a year later after the incident

Senior. The grade I was now. Still never talking. Still bullied. Still the the same, new me. Always terrified of what is gonna happen. Music was my escape. I knew band names and the people's names but didn't really care. It's not like I'd ever meet them.

My last year until I was free from everything and everyone. One last year of nothing but bully's. I wasn't very social, but since I was now a senior I decided I would make a Facebook and Twitter. Twitter seemed pretty cool. I followed some of the bands I liked and got a lot of follows. Except they were from people from school. I started getting hate, lots and lots of hate from people at school.

I just didn't pay attention to it. I decited to tweet someone from my favorite band, One Direction. I doubted they would see it but didn't care.

Alice_Was_Here: Hey I really like your guys music it's really good. Thanks for keepin' the music goin'.

I put it on Liam's profile. He had a lot of tweets directed towards him. It was kinda funny because I would refresh it every 5 seconds and it had like 10 new ones. I knew he wouldn't see it. School was gonna suck tomorrow. I guess I'm gonna have to stand up for myself for once instead of letting it slide.

A couple girls cornered me on my way to my first class. They normally just bugged me in class and at lunch so why they did this I had no clue.

"So Alice are you done with being silent? Because I'm sure we are all dying to know what happened last year. Right girls?" She turned towards the other two cheerleaders that were with her. Come on, just say something, you can do it.

"I-I can talk o-or n-not talk if I want." My voice wasn't very steady.

"And she talks. Now are you gonna tell us what happened?" Her asking shut me up quickly.

"Cat got your tongue?" That's when I heard someone behind me say something.

"Shut up. Just leave the girl alone. You should be heading to class." I turned around and noticed it was the new math teacher. He was 24 and got along with classes really well. Never have I heard a teacher tell a student to shut up.

"Whatever. She's just a loser anyway. Why are you defending her? Feeling a little protective now aren't we?" Britney had her eyes narrowed at him. Mr.Brooks had the same last name as me. It was kind of weird, everyone said there had to be no relation. Apparently I was nothing like him.

"Go to class Britney. Trust me its for your own good. Or I can give you a detention. How will your couch take that?" That got Britney and her 'slaves' moving.

"S-s-sorry about t-them. I-I guess I'm amusing to bully." I quickly stuttered out.

"Don't apologize for them it's not your fault. But I need to speak with you. It's a little personal. Will you be okay with it?" I shook my head yes really quickly. We walked to his office and I sat on the opposite side of the desk to him.

"Okay what I'm about to tell you might shock you a bit. But I know your aunt won't do it." He said looking at two pieces of paper he pulled out.

"Okay, w-what is it?" He took a deep breath.

What he told me next really did shock me though.
