They are bullying again!

Elias's POV

Everybody was rushing out of the French classroom as the class ended. It was the first class after the break. I waited for everyone to go out so that I could walk out peacefully. Charlie Brown and Daisy Brooke went passed me speaking way too loudly. It almost looked like they were screaming into my ears.

Yes, we have a same last name, but we are nowhere related. Then my gaze landed on Jeremy white and Andrew Smith. They were tackling one another then in process they kicked a chair out of its place. It stumbled and came towards me. I hold the chair in reflex before it could hit me and placed it in its original place.

They went off running not even aware of what they did. I took my book and was about to exit the class, but Mrs. Jones stopped me.

"Mr. Brown wait a second" she called.

Sarah Williams and Janet parker were having a discussion with Mrs. Jones. I waited for them to finish.

If you are wondering how I do now everybody's name, then it is to be blamed on my memory. One call from the teacher and one look at them and their names are already imprinted in my memory. I guess I know more than half of the people's name in this school. And our East high is quite big, and the students are quite a lot too.

"Okay. You can go now" Mrs. Jones said to both.

After they went off, I went near the Mrs. Jones desk. She opened her drawer and rustled in between the papers and pull out an envelope.

"I want you to give this to Brian McKenna. And right now. You have to give this to him before your next class. Okay?" she ordered and raised her eyebrows waiting for my answer and holding the envelope before me.

My jaw dropped inwardly. In all people, does she had to ask me to do it. That too right now? God knows where he is. How am I supposed to search him in this whole school? This is ridiculous!

"Mrs. Jones, I have no idea where he might be. Can't I give it to him at the time of leaving?" I asked respectfully.

"No, you have to give it now. What if you won't be able to find him later. I gave my word to Mr. Martin that Mr. McKenna will receive this letter before the end of this day" Mrs. Jones said.

I nodded hiding my smile which was threatening to break into surface. It was because her words showed how much she cherished her relationship with Mr. Martin (The soccer's coach). Well, it's an affair in their case which nobody knows yet.

How do I know? Their gaze for each other was saying it. And I might have overheard them once. Not on purpose, off course.

I took the envelope from her and went on my way to hunt for Brian McKenna. What might be in that envelope that it's so important to give him right now. In my luck, we had same class now. But I'm not sure if he will be present or not. I quickly went downstairs and drop my book in my locker and made my way towards my next class.

The teacher didn't arrive yet. I swept my gaze around the class but didn't find him or any his friends. So, I walked through the corridor looking at every open classroom. But didn't found him anywhere.

"Hey! Hey!" Justin Miller said blocking my path.

Oh! Here come the twins.

Justin Miller and Austin Miller were standing before me. They are the popular twins in our high school. "Where are you going in such a hurry?" Justin sneered wriggling his eyebrows.

I inwardly rolled my eyes. Should I stay and give them some minutes to mock at me? Or should I go? What if I get late?

So, I was about to ignore them and go on my way. But this time Austin stops me. This time I don't try to go again. I simply took some steps back and stood there and didn't bother replying their question. I ignored their presence and looked at everyone who were in the corridor just in case I find Brain.

"Did you forget your way to the classroom or what?" Austin said and laughed mockingly.

"Did you really?" Justin's eyes widened in realization and snickered at the fact that I really might have forgotten my way to the classroom. Because we have same class now and I am going other way.

I stifled the laugh which was about to come out after looking at Justin's expression and kept my face blank.

Some of the students stopped in their track to watch us.

"And who are you looking for? It's not like you have any friend. Do you?" Austin mocked again without waiting for my answer, he knows very well that I am not going to answer.

And he tries to get some reaction from me by making me realize that I am a loner. But don't worry he ain't gonna get any reaction from me other than my blank face.

"Even if he had one, he wouldn't be any better than him" Justin sneered.

There are even taking turns to mock at me! I laughed inwardly. Not bad! It's been such a long time, I thought they would run out of words till now. They deserve an applause.

"Who do you think deserves to be your friend? yeah?" Austin asked in a provoking manner. "A virgin just like you, who hadn't touched any girls and who don't even know how to flirt with girls?" he said in between his laugh.

"It is hilarious to imagine how his friend would look" Justin said laughing hard. "A coward who wouldn't even know how to face a girl" he laughed again.

When they said friend, I thought about Zac. He is my cousin and the closest person to me. So, he is just like my friend.

A virgin? Yeah, he definitely is! Don't know how to flirt with girls? That's the quite opposite! A coward? No way! His confidence level is higher than mine and to be honest he is quite rebellious.

So, when I imagined Zac with the personality that twins gave, it made me laugh. I then gave a dry laugh getting slightly irritate. I looked at my watch.

It's late! I don't think I will be able attend this class.

I quickly went pass them not letting them stop me again. I made my way out of the school building and looked for Brian around the campus in hurry. He was nowhere. At last I looked for him in soccer court.

There was no one in here too. The whole court was empty. Then I went around the court to look for him in the corners. Then suddenly all at once I heard multiple voice shouting.

"Brian" that's what I heard them shouting.

It made my every sense alert. I ran with full speed towards the place where the voice came from.

Did something happen to Brian? Panic was evident in everyone's voice. Even though I don't like him, I cannot just ignore it.

The scene before me made me halt in shock. My eyes widened. Instead of Brian being in danger it was someone else. Brian had hold Mary against the wall. There was pain written on Mary's face. So, I am guessing Brian has probably hit Mary against the wall.

And everyone stupidly was just looking at them. Sam was slightly horrified but didn't move from his place. And everyone else was watching them like it was a normal occurrence. And there was another person who was lying on the ground and was shivering with fear. I recognized him. Albert Sanford.

They are bullying again!

It made my blood boil. The anger in me rose so much that I wished to throw Brian against the wall. I stopped myself from rushing towards him in anger. I waited for a second for my anger to cool down a bit. Nobody had noticed my presence yet. Everyone was focused at watching Brian bullying Mary.

"Beast!" Mary hissed at Brian with contempt. One look at Brian was enough for me to guess his next action. So, before he could do anything, I made my presence known to them.

"Enough!" I snapped, my voice like a steel.
