Chapter 6: Final Project
How did I get myself in this situation. I don't know how I got my way we are doing the book I want. I'm surprised he hasn't killed me yet. I also still don't know why I asked to be his partner now people know I exist. I had done so well with keeping my head down and staying in the shadows for almost 3 years now why did it change all of a sudden. The class was dismissed and as we were walking out Hunter said, "Megan, meet me at the gates we are going to go out and study off campus. I'd prefer for people not to see me with you if I can ovoid it."
"Okay, I understand. I'll see you at the end of the day." This is either good of bad the Jack just agreed to meet with me. Even if it is only for this school project.
"Hey, Cripple! You must be new so you don't know how it works yet. I'll let you off this time but next time you are in my hall way you pay me a fee." A mans voice broke out as I was going down the hallway. I stopped walking all of a sudden, I knew he was talking to me but I wasn't expecting it. I'm not new, nobody notice me before because I had stayed alone and in the shadows but I wouldn't of thought me working with the Jack on our first day people would already know and have it out for me. I turn around to see a man, he was built and taller than me but not as tall as Hunter. He had black hair and green eyes. He glared down at me and pushed me to the floor.
"Are you slow or something. At least you realized I was talking to you. You worthless creature." He sneered. I could hear the people around me whispering. Saying things like "she's beautiful but isn't very smart." "How'd the Jack get so unlucky." "I'm not sure if the Jack is lucky or not, because she could be a fun play thing." I just laid there on the ground, I knew if I spoke and said the wrong thing or tried to run or fight back I'd only get hurt worse. I also knew not to make direct eye contact because they might take it the wrong way. So I laid there helpless waiting for whatever would come next. I held a sharp pain in my ribs as I was kicked in the gut and slid across the floor and hit the lockers and then I felt sharp pain in my back. But I heard a women say, "This is no fun, she clearly knows her place and won't fight back, let's get out of here." With that I felt everyone's gazes leave and the voices get farther and farther away. I opened my eyes and I was alone. I coughed and out with it came blood, I knew I had to go to the infirmary, I was just happy it was Friday so I'll have the weekend to recover. Acting like I know my place to avoid getting hurt really is helpful. I forced myself up off the ground and used all my strength to hold myself to get and walk to the infirmary. I walked in and coughed and more blood came up. Doc looked at me and got up "go sit down on the bed, I'm making elixir to help you heal and then I'll check and see what all is wrong sow I can bandage you up. I'll also call you teachers to let them know you won't be in class for the rest of the day."
I nodded me head and did as Doc ordered and went and sat down. Doc always seemed angry probably because most of the students don't listen to him and he's an elite that got stuck as a school nurse, he once was in the military so this is a big step down for him and he wasn't used to being disobeyed and disrespected especially by a bunch of high school kids. This is where the government put him after war was done though, so he didn't have any choice. With that he came back and gave me the elixir and check out my back and ribs.
"You definitely broke two ribs, one punctured your lung that's why you are coughing blood and you back is bruised pretty bad. I'm not used to seeing you here, but you should be heal for the most part in the next 3 hours, but the bruises won't be gone u til at least tomorrow." Doc said.
"Thank you, I'm sorry to be a problem."
"It's no problem Megan, you are one of the few student who I enjoy having around. Since you know how to take an order. You'll be out by the end of the school day anyways."
