Save the Queen

Jenny

The school ends and I'm thanking God for it. Rose asked me to wait for her outside the Glee club's room for her audition. I can't believe that she actually wants to join that lame club.

While waiting, I saw Cassy and her girls approaching me.

"How nice that the Queen bitch is alone." Cassy mocked me

I know that I will lose this one because she got her backups.

"Shoo, bitches!"

"Not that fast, Jenny Fryxell." Cassy smirked and that moment I know I'm in trouble

Two of her girls held my hands and forced me to stand.

"What the hell?!" I shouted

I looked around to look for help but I guessed everyone went home already and unlucky for me that the Glee club's room is soundproof so that when they are practicing no one will be disturbed.

"Let's go. We'll take her where she belongs." Cassy ordered and they started to drag me

"Where the hell we're going?" I asked, trying to free my hands from these two bitches

We reached the janitor's room. They pushed me inside and they quickly locked the door.

"Cassy! Get me out of here!" I shouted banging the door

"Rot in hell, Jenny!" She shouted before I heard their footsteps fading away

I quickly fetched my phone from my bag and tried to dial Rose’s number but there is no signal.

"Bullshit!" I shouted

I looked around the dirty and nasty room. I startled when I saw a rat running.

My claustrophobia started to trigger. I sat in the corner and buried my face in my palm. It's pathetic but I started to cry.

Lily

Cassy's plan kept on bothering me. What if they really locked Jenny there?

"What's wrong, Lily?" Kevin asked me while he's driving us home

I shook my head "Nothing. Can you drive fast? I will use my car after you get home."

"Sure, where are you going, anyway?" He started to drive fast

"Slow down, Kevin!" Jibee complained from the back seat

"Sorry, Ji. I just have an urgent thing to do."

"Would you mind telling me?" Kevin asked again

"No. It's something personal."

~~

Right after Kevin and Jibee got out of my car, I drove fast back to school. Bitch or not, Jenny Fryxell needs my help.

It was dark already when I arrived. I told the guard that I forgot something in my locker so that he let me in. He believed and let me in.

"Damn it! Which janitor's room?" I complained

Why do they have to make several janitors’ rooms?

I checked every goddamn Janitor's room till I reached the last one. The door was locked in a padlock. How can I open it?

I knocked and heard her sobbing.

"Jenny? Are you there?"

"Y-yes! Help me!" She begged

"I will look for something that can break this padlock. Wait for me, okay?"

"Okay." She responded with a sob

When I was about to leave she asked "Who are you?"

"Miracle."

I didn't wait for her response and left to look for something that can destroy that padlock. I can't find something that can help me.

"Damn it!"

I went back to where Jenny is.

"Jen? I can't find anything. But I will do something to break this lock."

"What are you going to do? Please help me." She begged again

I feel like she's not the Queen bee now.

"I want you to stay away from the door."

"Okay." I heard her replied

I counted from one to three before I collided my shoulder to the door with all my force.

"What are you doing?" She asked. I believed that she's scared now.

"Just stay away from the door!" I shouted as I felt my shoulder started to sting

Four more collisions and the door banged open. I rushed inside to see Jenny. I was surprised when she hugged me. She sobbed in my chest because I am taller than her.

"You're safe now." I said while rubbing may hand to her back

"T-thank you."

~~

"Would you like to go home now?" I asked Jenny with a smile while I'm driving

Driving while you have a broken arm is not easy. I guess I will stop by the hospital before I go home.

"Yes, please." She said, looking outside

I handed her my phone "Can you typed your address there? I'm still not familiar in this town; I still need to use Waze."

She took the phone started to type her address "Here" She handed me back my phone

"Thanks." I said and placed my phone in the phone stand

Minutes have passed and no one dared to speak.

"Uh... Lily?" Jenny finally spoke

"Yes? Do you need anything?"

"Thank you for saving me and sorry for what I did to you the other day." She said looking down while playing with her fingers

"It's okay. I'm glad that you're safe now."

"How did you find me? And how did you know that I am there?" She threw questions

"When I excused myself during our English class, it happened that Cassy and her friends walked in the restroom while I was doing my business. I heard their plan but I'm not sure if they will actually do it. I'm sorry if I didn't come earlier."

"It's okay. I'm still thankful that you saved me. I have claustrophobia; I thought I'm going to die there."

"Are you going to have your revenge?" I asked and I am hoping for a 'no' for an answer

"I'm still thinking about it." She said and I saw her fist balled

"Can you leave that to me? I don't want you to get in trouble again. I will do something that I know that they will be punished."

The pain started to get worse; I think I need to go to hospital first before I drop this lady beside me.

"Jen, can I stop by the hospital first? I think I broke my arm."

She bit her bottom lip "I'm sorry again about that. Can you take off your jacket? I want to see it."

I stopped the car and carefully took my jacket off.

Jenny gasped when she saw the big bruise formed in my arm.

"We really need to get you to the hospital." She said

I nodded and started to drive again. She's looking at my arm now and then.

"Hey, no need to feel guilty. I'll be fine." I assured her

She touched my arm; I felt something to her touch, something that I can't explain.

"Can I kiss it?" She asked that made me to look at her

"Huh? Why?"

"My nanny used to kiss my bruise; she said that it will heal faster if you kiss it." She explained, she looked at me and we made eye contact

I turned my attention back to the road, I felt myself blushing. Gosh! She's pretty something.

"Y-yeah. Sure, if you really want." I stuttered

Seconds later I felt Jenny's soft lips touch my skin. It lasted for seconds before she pulled away.

My heart started to beat faster. What is wrong with me?

We stopped in front of the hospital's emergency room.

We went inside, the nurses rushed to us. They asked what happened and Jenny explained everything.

"We need to x-ray you, ma'am." They informed me after they ask me my personal info

I nodded and walked beside the nurse. Jenny followed us. When we reached outside the x-ray room, the nurse stopped Jenny.

"Just wait here, ma'am." The nurse said and Jenny just nodded

~~

We're waiting for my x-ray result when my phone starts to make noises.

I fetched my phone using my other hand. Jibee is calling.

"Ji."

"Where are you? It's getting late, young Miracle!"

I looked at Jenny and gave her a smile. She smiled back that made her smile more.

"Don't freak out, okay? I am in the hospital..." I started to tell her everything happened

"Why didn't you tell me about this? Kevin and I are going there! Is Jenny, okay?"

"Yes, she's okay. We're just waiting for my x-ray result so that they know what to do with my arm."

~~

Jibee and Kevin arrived after the x-ray result came. They needed to cast my arm, sadly.

"Lily, you okay?" Kevin rushed to me

I gave him an assuring smile "I'm good. Don't worry."

"Jenny, how about you? How are you feeling?" Jibee asked the Queen bee

"I'm good, thanks to Lily." She smiled at me

I felt Kevin's hand caressing my head, just like before, it works to make me feel good.

I saw Jenny staring at us with a frown.

Every time I look at Jenny, I see the guilt in her eyes. We are walking back to my car while Jibee and Kevin are taking care of the bills; I reached for Jenny's hand.

It startled her but she relaxed after.

We stopped and faced each other.

"Jenny, I know that you feel guilty but please don't be. I did this because I want to help." I said squeezing her hand

She stared at our hands "I can't help it. I feel so guilty about this. I'm sorry."

I released her hand and guided her chin up so that I could see her face. Again, my heart started to beat faster. I stared at her cat doe eyes.

"Since my right hand was injured, why don't you just write notes for me so that you can get even with me? How is that?"

She smiled "Okay."
