Falling For The Girl I Bullied
Chapter 92

Violet’s P.O.V.

I couldn’t tell what I was feeling right now. I was so dead. What have I done again? I once again replied back to her and what I said was not something that I should speak. O God… please help me..What if Kyle and the boys had listened to my ranting? Kyle was dragging me behind him roughly and it was enough to tell that he had listened to what I said about him. How I am going to face them again? I lowered my head as if I wanted to hide my face inside my chest. “Kyle… you will make her fall… slow down”, I heard Ethan’s worried voice beside me. Kyle still didn’t stop and I just sighed internally. He was definitely going to kill me for saying those things about him. He was not the boy to mess with and I messed up big trouble here.

He stopped near his car and dragged me in front of him. He was still holding my wrist tightly. I heard him breathing heavily and I shut my eyes tightly in embarrassment and fear. “Th…. That w.. wasn’t my fault… she… she provoked me first”, I tried to defend myself but my voice came out in whispers. “She provoked you and what you did, huh?” he yelled at me and I flinched badly while shrinking my shoulders. “I… I… I am sorry”, I immediately whispered again now trembling in fear. “What has gotten inside you today? What nonsense were you spouting there?” he yelled again in a loud voice and I trembled hard at my place. If he was going to leave me alive, Sia would definitely kill me for insulting her twice on the same day. What I was doing today? I was digging my own grave but I wouldn’t be able to go inside that grave because Sia would throw my body as a feast to crows and eagles.

“I… I… I”, I tried to defend myself again but nothing came out of my mouth. I was still trembling hard and it was really difficult to breathe now for me. “Hey Kyle… take it easy, brother… she didn’t say anything bad about you, right?” Albert teased him and I felt like digging a big hole right under my feet so that I could hide there. “O God”, I exclaimed and immediately ran behind Kyle to hide myself from everyone’s gaze. Everyone laughed and I just hid my face inside his back. “Wh… what are you doing?” Kyle yelled in anger and tried to move but I held him tightly from behind as my shield. “Enough teasing her, let’s go to have something to eat…. I am super hungry now”, I heard Ethan saying and I was so glad that we were going back but there was no way that I was going to eat something with them. It was a big no for me.

“Get inside the car”, I heard Kyle muttering in anger again. Without wasting a second, I opened the door and jumped inside the car. I locked the door and hid my head on my lap and covered it with my hands. I needed to go away somewhere soon. But where I could go now? I had no shift at the diner today and I remembered that I forgot to tell Kyle and Ethan about that. I pitied myself for being so careless. Where I could go now? Suddenly someone grabbed my shoulder and pulled my body up. I screamed and looked at Kyle fearfully while scooting myself towards the door more.

“Will you buckle yourself?” he asked me in an angry tone and I nodded immediately. My hands immediately flew for the belt and I tried to buckle but my hands were now shaking badly. He started driving the car and I was struggling to buckle myself. He suddenly put his hand on mine over the lock. I closed my eyes and tried to be calm but I was still trembling. What the hell was I thinking before speaking that nonsense? I said as if I really knew anything about Kyle in that way. Everyone heard me and what they were thinking about me now? I felt a squeeze on my hand and I opened my eyes. I saw his hand on mine and I just stared at his hand there. “Lock it, Violet”, he commanded in a calm voice this time. I took a deep breath and managed to lock the belt this time.

“I… I want to go home”, I whispered without looking at him. I had no courage to lift my head up. “Don’t you have the hift today?” he asked me in confusion this time. “No, Jenny is doing shift today… I… I got a call from her… she needs to take off in the morning”, I told him truthfully in a low tone. I was still shaking inside because I knew that he was going to confront me about what I did earlier. “Tell me something first”, he asked me and I closed my eyes in embarrassment again. “Where did you learn that stuff, huh? About girl screaming in ecstasy (he mocked that word) and”, he trailed and I hid my face in between my palms.

“Where did you learn that, huh?” he asked me once again in a light tone this time. I knew I had to answer or else he would ask again and again until I reply to him. “I… I… uhhh… I… I.. heard two… two girls…. Talking a.. about the… their time with th.. their boyfriends an… and they.. we… were”, I tried to tell him what I heard before in the girls’ room but I blushed harder and hid my face again. I heard him chuckle and I was sure that I wouldn’t see his face again for the rest of my life. I didn’t have the courage to look up at him now. “You do know the consequences of what you said, right?” he asked me in a serious tone this time.

I removed my hands from my face and lifted my head up looking straight at the road in front of me outside the car. “Yeah… I know… T.. they have already spread the rumors th… that we… we are sleeping together”, I told him what I heard this morning in the classroom when he was away for a while to talk with Ethan. No one said anything to my face but I heard them talking about me and Kyle in hushed tones. “Who said that to you?” he immediately asked me in a stern tone. I lowered my head again and looked at my intertwined fingers on my lap. “Violet…. Talk to me”, I heard him demanding again in a soft tone this time.

“No girl… not even a boy… ca.. can prove that they are not involved in something like that. There is no use in screaming that I am innocent when you know that no one is going to believe you because they don’t want to”, I paused and closed my eyes. I felt tears in my eyes but I didn’t let them slip this time. “Sia has spread the rumor that I am sleeping around and that’s why all the boys from the volleyball team are protecting me because… because I”, I choked on my voice because this was enough for me to bear. I could be anything but a s**t. Heck, I had never kissed a boy let alone having a s****l relationship with anyone.

I felt a jerk in my body and looked up. I realized that I zoned out and Kyle had stopped the car. I looked down again because I didn’t want him to see me crying again. Suddenly he grabbed my arm and the next second, I was in his safe embrace. I sniffed and clutched his t-shirt tightly taking in the comfort that he was providing me right now. I didn’t know when did he unbuckle me but I was glad that he was with me right now. He kissed the top of my head gently and tightened his grip around my torso. “I… I am not a s**t… you know that, right?” I said while sniffing. I didn’t know why did I ask him but I wanted him to say that he trusted me. I had 12 boys from the volleyball team to protect me. Eleven boys from the football team promised me that they would not do anything to hurt me again. It was enough to raise a suspicion that I had some kind of absurd relationship with them. I didn’t need anyone’s trust but I needed Kyle’s trust in me and I didn’t know the reason why.

“I know, princess… and I trust you… don’t let them play your mind. You are better than any other girl in the school”, he comforted me in a gentle voice. I felt at ease immediately as soon as I heard him saying that he trusted me. “Just don’t … don’t say something like that again… that.. that… you know very well the truth of our relationship”, he said in a bit irritating voice this time. I blushed again and took my lower l*p between my teeth. I slowly lifted my head up and met his amber eyes looking down at me. My breath hitched when our eyes met. We looked into each other’s eyes for a few seconds. I couldn’t tell what I was seeing in his eyes but there was an emotion in his eyes that I couldn’t decipher. My eyes darted between his eyes and his lips and I looked back into his eyes again. He slowly lowered his head and I just looked at him with a furiously beating heart. His grip on me tightened and I forgot to breathe when his face came closer to mine.

I closed my eyes slowly when his hot breaths started fanning my face. I gulped hard when I felt the heat of his lips right over my lips. I jumped in fright when suddenly a loud honk startled me. Our eyes met again and I immediately straightened my body almost running towards my seat. My heart was hammering against my ribcage right now. What was wrong with me today? I must have lost my mind. I provoked Sia twice and now I was going to k**s Kyle? Kyle? What the hell was I thinking today? I cursed myself again and again while patting my chest. All the veins of my mind were now throbbing hard. My whole body was on fire and I felt that I was not breathing.

Kyle started the car again and all I wanted right now was to run away from here. I heard him muttering something incoherent but I didn’t dare to ask him. Heck, how could I face him after….. after my two stunts today? God….. I g*****d internally while confronting myself badly. I looked out of the window to see something…. Anything that could distract me… I needed a distraction right now but my complete face was hot right now even I felt heat coming out of my ears. The feeling of his breaths over my nose and lips was still lingering in my mind. Kyle stopped the car near my home and before he could say anything, I opened the door and dashed out as if my a** was on fire. I ran to the door of my home and leaned against it. I put my forehead on the door and closed my eyes while catching my breath. I needed a brain check now.

I took a few deep breaths and when I felt that I was calm enough to open the door, I opened my eyes and straightened myself. I looked at the knob and was about to grab it when I realized that I forgot to take my bag from the car. I closed my eyes tightly again while groaning harder in frustration and shaking my head furiously. “Here”, I jumped in fright again and looked behind fearfully when I heard Kyle’s voice. He was looking at me with a sly smile on his lips which made me feel hot again. “Th.. thanks”, I mumbled and took the key from his hand and then my bag. I heard him chuckle behind me and I cursed myself again for embarrassing myself in front of him. “Don’t forget to go to Lance. I will be late tonight. I have a shoot”, he informed me, and then I heard his footsteps going away. I took a breath of relief because now I was not going to meet him again tonight but what about other days?
