All Chapters of The Bully's Redemption : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Hannah's POVNo one tells you how much a school changes after an epic win.Walking down the hallway is hard enough for me on a regular day. But now I had to deal with bristling past crowds of students giving high fives, fist bumps, and chanting. It felt like everywhere I turned I either heard "Go Hudsons!" or "We did it, man."Green balloons littered the hall, and I couldn't even see the floor anymore as I made my way to class. A part of me hoped the class would be cancelled to celebrate our big victory against Westfield. But of course, that was too much to wish for. Knowing Mr. Lawton, he would have made our class two hours longer."Isn't it amazing, Hannah?" Serena asked me, her eyes lit up like fireflies as she looked around.Someone behind us sprayed confetti. It fluttered down through the air like ashes. Green and white paper fell on our shoulders and in our hair, causing giggles to escape our lips. I brushed it off gently, turning to Serena with a smile perking up my lips."Well

Hannah's POV Maybe going back to my room was a mistake. I should've stayed in the toilet till the end of the day. Heck, the end of the semester if I had to. But after my legs started to fall asleep and my arms grew tired, I decided to make the painful walk back. If I was lucky, it'd be empty and I could fall asleep without having to answer any questions from Tiffany or Maya. I could curl into my blanket and pretend everything that happened today was nothing more than a bad dream. Oh, well. I should've known my roommates would be in their beds by the time I arrived, preparing themselves for what to say when I walked through that door. "I'm going to kill Zachary!" Tiffany exclaimed, her features hardening so quickly it frightened me. Maya on the other hand was barely moved. She slid her headphones so they rested on her shoulders and gave Tiffany a blank stare. "You've said that three times already." "And you think I don't mean it?" She asked, her voice piercing my ears li

Hannah's POVI don't like the sound of sirens. When ambulances scream past with colours of red flashing like a blur, it brings a wave of sickness to me. But when this ambulance arrived, I didn't even hear it. It was one of the things my mind tuned out. Because all I could see was the blood dripping down Zachary's temples as he was carried out on a stretcher. All I could hear was him groaning in pain. He had mud and grass in his wounds, in his hair, on his face. My heart sank and I couldn't seem to swallow the nausea ready to overwhelm me.His friends raced to his side like loyal soldiers. And when the responders hauled him into the back of the ambulance, their faces were pale and fallen. Why wouldn't they be? I don't think anyone was expecting the match to turn out this way. I wasn't.But did Tiffany?My eyes slowly moved to her and my heart pounded like a drum. Her expression was too unreadable. Blank. Almost as if she'd been expecting something like this to happen. No. It's not poss

HANNAH’S POVPeople used to say that the only thing wrong with my brother was me. Back when I was in middle school, he was one of the most popular students in his grade. He was the type who came out of exam halls with straight A’s without trying too hard.Jordan played sports, had girlfriends and, more importantly, was one of the most charming people you would ever meet. It was a gift, really. So was his ability to win the favour of some of the strictest and most soulless teachers in our school.I was the opposite. I stuck my nose in books because, unlike some people, I couldn’t memorise words on a board from a single glance. To this day, I’m not sure if I love my brother more than I respect him, because the pedestal I’ve put him on is as tall as a skyscraper.After all, he was the reason I chose this course. And if there was anyone who could help me navigate times as dark as these, it was Jordan.“Who the hell do those people think they are?” he yelled through the phone speaker. He s

HANNAH’S POVThe party took place at the school hall—the same hall where we were lectured on school guidelines. But under the red lights and with the blaring music, it looked unrecognisable. The bass shook the room, and I could feel the vibrations beneath my feet. My black heels certainly weren’t helping. The hall smelled like strong liquor and another scent I wasn’t familiar with.“Maybe we should go?” I had to raise my voice so my friends could hear me even though they were right beside me.Serena took my arm in hers and shook her head. “But we just got here,” she giggled, looking around the dance floor before making her way to the middle.“Come on, guys,” she called, stretching out her hands towards us to invite us to join her. Maya did so without a second thought, smiling as she moved her hips to the beat of the music. But if you watched her closely enough, you’d notice her glancing at a corner of the room as if looking for someone.“She seems…different, doesn’t she? Why do I feel
