Chapter eight: the messy cafeteria
~•~•~Rob's pov~•~•~
The sound of my alarm clock rings to indicate that I have to get up, but the comfort of my bed is pleading me not to go. I listen to my heart and not my bed as sleep wiped me into my mind, i yelped as two cold hands pulled me out from under the blankets. With the sunshine shining threw the window, I couldn't adjust my eyes to see who was towering over me.
"I thought that you said that you'll get up yourself from now on! Do I have to do everything for you?!?" The nagging sound could only come from my older sister, I roll my eyes as she continues "don't roll your eyes! I'm making a valid point, it's only going to get harder in college!" She scolds as she shuffled out of my room. Her curly brown hair and brown eyes are burning at me with hatred. I rushed to go prepare myself for the day, hopefully I can catch Vik on the way to school. Right now, he's all I got. "IM GOING TO LEAVE YOU IF YOU GET YOUR BUTT DOWN HERE!!"
"HOLD IT, MELISA!" I basically flew down the steps and meet her out the door, a few blocks down the street, my stomach reminded me that it was hungry.
"Should of woke up earlier if you wanted to eat" she seared at me, I mumbled a 'yeah' as I rub my belly. I haven't ate yesterday as well, I was to busy trying to complete the homework assignment and was to tried to get up from my bed. I departed from Melisa and bounced down onto the town bus. I stood since all the seats were crowded by small children and their tired parents. As I spotted my stop, I clicked the button and bounced off the bus. Where the bus left me was at the back of the school, near the senior's section. I tried to walk threw one of the manny entrances as someone grabbed my backpack and yanked me down. I let out a small yelp as I felt myself being lifted up from my book bag and my feet barely touching the ground. I looked up to my attacker, their was JJ and the rest. I scanned around for Vik to help me, but he was nowhere in sight. They yanked my backpack over away from lurking eyes and into where they throw away the trash. Along the way, they pushed me, kicked me, punched and anything that caused pain. Every time I fell, they would yank my by the arm, shoulder, hand and sometimes bye the hair and yelled in my ears to get up.
"S-stop!" I managed to get out as I struggled against their strength. My body strength wasn't strong enough for me to escape. They threw me agents the dumpster, I hit my shoulder and slid down.
"We're going to give you a warning, shorty" Simon leaned into my face, only a few centimeters apart. "Stay away from Vik. He's not your friend, he's just pretending"
"I can be friends with whoever I want" I growled, this was a bold movement.
"Wrong!" Ethan yelled as he connected his fist with my light brown eyes. Several more punches were thrown at me. I felt my body shake as tears were flowing.
"HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" I heard a voice yell, it sounded like Jerome's, but I wasn't too sure because my ears were ringing.
"MIND YOUR BUSINESS-!" Tobi yelled back, my eyes had adjusted just in time to see Jerome throw Tobi towards the wall. Josh goes and has a successful kick towards Jerome's calf and Ethan punches Jerome in the stomach. The fight went on, both Jerome and Vik's friends injured, but they desisted to go before someone else came.
"You should get up, we have homeroom together so we could walk their" Jerome said as he helped me up and we stumbled down the senior section to the freshman section. Weird looks being casted towards us.
"Thanks, Jerome" I say as he looks at me, giving me a sly smile. "How do you know how to fend for yourself?". Jerome shrugged off my questions and I felt like it was a hint to drop the conversation in total. We sat in homeroom and waited for class to be over.
~•~•~•Time skip towards lunch~•~•~
I stretched my long legs after sitting for two periods, I threw my backpack on and shuffled out of the classroom. I exchanged my backpack for my lunch money and water bottle. Slowly, with everyone else, filled into the Cafeteria. Either grabbing a table or lunch tray. Today's specialty, cold noodles, really cold. 'God, do they even TRY to feed us real food?' I scolded at the plate in front of me. I spotted Jerome sitting with Mitch and decided to shuffle myself over their.
"Could I?" I asked, they nodded their heads and I sat down. We had a conversation about homework, the cold food and how we wish summer could stay forever.
"Oh!" Mitch said as he looked at his plate. "Speaking of food, I'm really hungry. This could be a stupid idea that could get me killed, but Ima eat it. Let me just get a spoo-" Mitch stood up and crashed right into Vikram. Vikram noodles went crashing down onto our table, splashing me and Jerome. Preston and Lachlan right behind Vikram.
"What the hell?" Jerome cursed as he scooped up a peace of pasta and aimed it at Vikram. As he launched the pasta, Vikram quickly moved out of the way and Preston was now hit. Vikram started to crack up of laughter.
"Think that's so funny?" Preston asked as he smashed his plate into Vikrams face. Vik threw the plate and it almost hit me.
"Watch it!" I said picking up my water bottle and splashing the boys in front of me, Lachlan dumped his pasta on Jerome's shoes to cover his face from my water attack. Jerome picked up some pasta as sneered it all over Lachlan's face. Before we knew it, some voice yelled food fights and the whole cafeteria scooted back their seats and pasta, water, lettuce and anything you could think of was being thrown.
"STOP!" The principle yelled, but he was no use agents the madness. All at once, whistle's of the teachers blew, causing everyone to stop. "WHO STARTED THIS?!?!" Everyone point at us and our tables. 'Sell outs, I thought we were all in this together!'. He pointed at us and screeched for us to go to his office, woop woop.
