Little Biersack

...I must be bluffing

As I walked through the hallway of my new school, I hugged the books in my arms. People really did like to push your books to the fucking floor.
"WATCH IT!" Someone yelled, as my books met the floor again. I kneel down and grabbed my book one by one.
"Hey... I got the last one." I look at Ty's eyes.
"Thanks." He grabs my book and holds it for me. "Where you heading?"
"Well.." He looks at my schedule, "we have English next."
"Right... English." He smiles and we walk to our English class.
He had an empty seat by him, so I gladly took it. He put my book down and sits down in his table.
English class was full of discussions.
I loved it.
They were reading 'The Sun Also Rises' it seemed like a good book.
"Machiala... Have anything to add?"
"I'm new... I haven't got the book yet." I said.
"That's a 0!" The kids laugh, but the teachers smiles. "If you don't have a physical book, I suggest you take notes young lady. This class is a participation class." "I understand." He smiles and continues to give the lesson.
------------
"New girl, right?" I nod.
"Well I'll make this clear." She grabs my arm.
"Hey! What the hell?"
"Look.. Whatever your name is, this is my school... Seriously. Whatever you do... Don't get in my way."
"I don't plan too." I said and got my arm back. She clicks away.
"Well... What a nice hello." I said, making Ty smile.
"That's Shiloh .. Don't mess with her, her dad is the principal of the school."
"So what?"
"He's on her side... Always."
"Well that's a little unfair don't you think?" Ty chuckles.
"The world is unfair... Come on. Let's finish this crappy lunch and walk around." He said. We ate our remaining of food and walked around the school. We past Shiloh, about 3 times.
Let me tell you something... She seriously needs to pay attention to other people.
-----------
The next day, I had put on my suicide silence shirt, a black skater skirt, black ripped tights and my high top converse. I straighten my wavy hair and added some dark makeup. Me and Ty were going to a signing in Hollywood, and we had to be their straight after school. I was glad that the hot topic was two blocks away.
"Well you look dark." My mom said as she saw me, laughing.
"I'm going to meet them today.."
"Oh really? With who? Cause I'm sure I didn't buy you a ticket."
"With Tyson, Actually you go buy the bundle there, and you get to meet the band,"
"well who is it?"
"Suicide silence." I said as I got my bag.
"I thought Mitch Lucker had died..."
"Thanks for opening the wound again mom... No, they got a new singer... Eddie. He was from ALL SHALL PERISH." Another great band.
"Oh... I guess I'm behind in the music news huh."
"Big time... I'll be home around 8."
"Okay, call me."
"Yes." I kiss her cheek and go outside, making my way to school. -
---------
"Oh look, it's the little emo." I roll my eyes and made it to my seat. I was about to sit when I fell right on my ass.
"SLUT!" Someone yelled. My skirt was kind of higher than usual. I put my skirt down and I got my chair from the person that had taken it. I got out my homework and my binder.
"Thanks for doing my homework." Some guy said, as he got my papers and erased my name.
"THATS MINE!" I yelled.
"Not anymore." He said and wrote his name. I shook my head.
Gotta be strong.
Don't cry Machiala.
I nod and thankfully, since I take a picture of all my work, I got my phone and begN to write it down. I finished once the teacher had entered the classroom. I put away my phone and smiled.
"Please turn in your homework." She said and I went to put my paper in the bin. "Machiala..." She called me in the middle of class.
"Yes?"
"I expected better from you?"
"Did I do something wrong? I did my homework." She put my old and new paper together.
"I won't accept cheating in my class."
"Ms. I'm not cheating, these are my papers. Someone took my original homework... You can see the eraser marks." I point to my harsh writing at the back. "
"Where did you copy the homework?" I take out my phone and showed her.
" I always take pictures of my work, just as the end of the year, I know I turned them in." She sighs.
"I'll let this one go, Machiala. You may go sit down." I nod and went sit back down. As the day went along, everything was happening to me. People smacked my ass, dog whistled, put water over my head, called me names.. The list goes on.
"Why don't you go home... And slice your small wrists? Your dad never loved you..." Shiloh said. She was lying.
Andy did love me...
He did right?
"Come on, Machiala... We're gonna be late for the signing.." Ty said and got my hand.
"COME ON TYSON! YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THAT!" Shiloh's friend yelled.
"Ignore her." Was all Ty said and we were on our way to meet my second heroes.
