Lahat ng Kabanata ng KNOCKOUT: Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

Chey, Deidra, and I spent the entire Sunday, just hanging out and watching movies all day. I learned that Deidra was funny, sarcastic, and crazy loyal. They shared a very interesting story of how she beat up a guy for making fun of the way Chey dressed. Overall, she seemed like a good friend to have, and I was happy that she was my other roommate. We avoided all talk of Mark and Jessie for the entire day, and I was very grateful for that. We all went to bed early that night, so we could get up on time for school, much to our displeasure. I let my hand fall on top of my phone, my fingers tapping at it blindly to turn it off. After a minute, I cracked one eye open and slid the alarm to snooze. I rolled back over and closed my eyes once again. Apparently, Chey and Deidra had other plans. The second I fell back asleep they started to jump on my bed and legs. I groaned and opened my eyes reluctantly. Chey got off and turned on some music. She took a minute

Marx's P.O.V. I sat down in the chair across from the headmaster where he sat at his desk. The headmaster just glared at me with hatred. I held back a chuckle of amusement. Julie had walked out of the class before us but never made it to the office. It seemed that she was over today as much as I was. About an hour and a half later, Shane walked in with Jake. I mean Officer Simons and Officer Mathews. It's not who I asked for, but they were still friends who joined the force a couple years ago. What the Hell took them so long? Shane was walking with someone small following behind them with her head cast toward the ground. I looked down at them, and I felt my anger flair when I saw how close he was to her. "You got arrested already? You were gone for an hour!" I shouted in frustration. My hand went up to the top of my head, where my fingers laced themselves in my hair. "I didn't get arrested, but from what I hear, you might be!" She screamed bac

His car grew smaller with every passing second. I waited and watched as drove away, hoping it was a joke. He was my legal guardian and my foster parent, how was he going to just leave me here? Unless, he had decided that he had enough.When the reality of the situation hit me that he wasn’t coming back, my arms found their way around my midsection, and I debated calling Mark to come pick me up. But, if I did that, then he would just get in trouble for leaving campus too.I pulled out my phone, unhappy when I saw that my battery was dying. It wasn’t dead, but I wouldn’t be getting into an Uber with a dying phone. That was an episode of CSI just waiting to happen. Instead, I walked back into the police station to ask if I could use theirs.The fog around me seemed to be getting thicker, and I tried my best to stay level headed and calm. The moisture in my eyes, rebelling against me every step of the way.“What are you doing back, did

"What do you mean? What kind of help?" He smiled a warm smile, and now that I was interested he seemed to relax. He had short brown hair that looked like it hadn't been brushed, with brown eyes and glasses. He was extremely scrawny too. I had to wonder what a kid like him was doing in a school for troubled youths."Well, for the past two years, every day at lunch a group of guys comes in and takes our food. If it isn't to their liking, we get beat up. Bad. I was voted to be the one to come over to your table and ask for your help. There are six of us, but there are also six of the others who beat us up." The kid dropped his arms on the table as he leaned forward. Mark quietly chuckled behind me, causing the guy to lose his smile and roll his shoulders down in defeat."I didn't mean to interrupt your lunch. I should have known that there was no point in coming over here. I'm so sorry." He started to stand, but I placed my hand on his where he was using it to push up fro

At ten that night, I ran up to the room and changed into my fighting clothes. I cleaned the cut on my leg, even though it wasn't deep and barely hurt at all. I hitched my hair up into a high ponytail and grabbed my converse before leaving the room with Chey and Deidra following closely behind.It seemed like everybody was out past curfew to try and follow us. But, no one else had told me that they wanted to go, so I didn't set up a ride for anyone else. I walked over to where I said I would meet the guys. They were there introducing themselves to each other."I'm Julie," I said plainly as I approached them.The Blondie spoke first. "I'm Spence."Next was the kid who asked for my help. "I'm Tyler."And the kid who was in the blue shirt but had changed. "I'm Price."I nodded."It's nice to meet you all. Tonight is going to be fun! If any of you discuss where we are going or who else is there tonight, it will be bad for you. I'm warning
