All Chapters of Once Her Bully, Now Her Beggar: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

May and I were the only ones who went to have dinner together. Kelsey said her mom called so she had to go home. The night went from me being extremely excited and grateful to having a weird feeling stuck to my chest.Why did Dylan have to be involved?After mentioning it to me in the elevator and I didn't respond to him, he still went ahead with it. Did he think my silence was a go-ahead?All of a sudden it felt like I owed it to him and I didn't like that at all.He was the one person I hated more than anything, and him doing things for me just infuriated me. It just felt easier to hate him but that was becoming hard with him invading my life.The restaurant we had dinner at was closer to May’s place so I didn't want to bother her by letting her drop me off so I just took the bus and walked home from there. It was already nighttime by the time we were done, luckily for us the next day was the weekend so I didn't have to bother about having to leave the house early for school. I too

NOVAStepping foot into the school premises felt completely different. I had eyes on me just like I always did, but the look in their eyes was different. It wasn't filled with hate and disdain or the condescending stares that I always got, like I was beneath them. They stared at me with smiles on their faces. Some tapped on the people beside me to grab their attention and pointed at me as I walked by.I was in denial to believe things could switch up that fast“You were extraordinary on the stage,” someone I have never spoken to in my life said to me as I walked byI mumbled a shy thank you and kept on walking. I didn't do well with attention whether good or bad, as much as it was flattering, and wasn't getting the attention over something bad. I still wanted to find a seat in the corner and go ahead with my day. It was just me walking to class because May had to skip school for a doctor's appointment and Kel was running late.Just as I was about to walk into my class, the hallway sud

The topic of conversation switched so fast that it was mind-boggling. It went from everyone talking about the play to everyone talking about Dylan standing up for me against Amelia and the theories going around of how I spiked Amelia's drink.The minute I stepped into the class, the teacher stopped teaching causing everyone to turn around and look at me. They erupted in whispers, some of which I could hear very clearly“I think she got caught for spiking Amelia’s coffee”“Why did Dylan defend her against Amelia?” Only if I knew also“You are late,” the teacher said“I was at the principal's office” I mumbledSuddenly the class went quiet and I could feel someone looming behind me, I peeked behind me to see it was Dylan standing there with a frown on his face. He looked pissed as hell.“Find somewhere to sit”“You to Mr Lennox” the teacher didn’t question any furtherI took the closest empty seat I could find and Dylan took the seat beside me. I could feel the eyes on me, on us. It wa

After Caleb and Elliott were done with their practice they came over to help and that made the work a lot quicker and easier I couldn’t be more grateful.“Thank you,” I said to both of them“Is she talking to us?” Elliott asked looking around like he was confused “This is just my way of being polite” I rolled my eyes at them“You are most welcome,” Caleb said “I would take your thank you only if you bring that Mac and cheese” Elliott said“Not happening” I simply said “I can’t stop thinking about it, please, please, please” he begged pouting “You came to help your friend here he should make it for you,” I said walking past them “You are so mean” he whined almost making me laugh but I immediately swallowed it. I had to keep calling myself back that I couldn’t find it in me to forgive these people and it really got to me how much they were creeping on me, they weren’t active bullies but they watched, they laughed while I was ridiculed. It felt way too much to let it go. Maybe I was

I spent the night thinking about everything he said to me, I was having a debate with myself about whether I should believe his words but I had to remind myself that he was a fucking liar and I would be stupid for falling into his ploy twice. He had the same look in his eyes when he told me about why he wanted to ace the play only for it to be a fucking scheme. No matter what he had to say I had to stay rigid and not fall for his bullshit.He was still Dylan Lennox, the same person who made sure my life was hell. I couldn’t grow a soft spot for him and I hated that he kept me awake wondering what was real and wasn’t.*******The morning came by pretty quickly and I was surprised to realize that I had slept off and was only awoken by the alarm clock, I wasn’t jolted awake by nightmares. I had a relaxing night that was the first time in a long time and it brought the biggest smile to my face. I felt a lot more relaxed and not like a walking wreck of anxiety.That had to be a sign that i
