Take Me There
Take Me There
It Never Ends
(Izzys POV)
take my mind off of it. It kills me to think about it, and it isnt
very smart for me to think about during class.
I suddenly start to tear up when Mrs. Clara notices. She
sees that Im ready to burst into a sudden flood and throws a
hand wave of dismissal towards me. I get up from my chair in
one swift movement, and make my way towards the bathroom.
I walk patiently through the hallways towards the bathroom.
Students artwork fills the hallways. I see a piece by Stacy
Calloper. She won many art prizes for her work. She definitely
has her career picked out. I also recognize my friend Sydney
Terras art. She does a wonderful job at capturing the moment.
She paints like theres no tomorrow. There are many things
about this school that I absolutely hate. But the one thing I
love is how artistic the school is. Almost everyone participates
in school contests and so many people here are fantastic
artists. They live through their art.
As I see the artwork coming to an end I know Ive reached
the bathroom. As I near, I hear a muffled scream. Before I walk
in, I held my ear to the door. I could make out a few voices on
the inside.
How do you like that? Thatll teach you to ask MY
boyfriend to the homecoming dance!
How about it Peyton? I think that look suits her.
As soon as I heard those voices I knew who it was. Yep,
you guessed it. They were your average clich, snotty, popular
girls. Peyton McDavis was super athletic, smart, and drop dead
gorgeous. She could give one guy a wink and hed be on his
knees. She didnt even bother about covering up her horrific
personality. She could make the strongest girl cry and not even
flinch. She had light brown hair and beautiful hazel eyes. She
had long legs and was great at almost any sport you could
name. So many guys fell over her she didnt even bother trying
to be nice. She had decided the only needed one friend. And
that was the other voice. Morgan Stevens.
Morgan Stevens and Peyton McDavis were an inseparable
pair. They did absolutely everything together. Morgan, unlike
Peyton, did her very best to act nice. She could fool anyone.
She would pretend to be your very best friend, learn all of your
secrets, and then boom! You became the talk of the school. No
matter how many times it had happened, there were always
more people falling for it. She was very creative and artistic

and had the wardrobe of a fashion model. She had long black
hair and brown eyes. She and Peyton were a double threat to
anyone who bothered them, and it seemed that whoever was
in the bathroom with them, was their latest victim.
I decide after 30 seconds of debating with myself that I
should walk in and stop whatever was going on. It didnt seem
very pleasant to me.
As I walk in, I see Kai Rush soaked. Her hair looked like a
wet mop and her clothes were drenched. What confused me is
that Kai was as popular, if not more than both Morgan and
Peyton. They were even friends at one time.
Oh hey Izzy. Since you decided to stop by would you like
a nice soak as well? Peyton said in a wretched tone.
Oh I know! We can take a picture of them together!
Theyll be the perfect couple! Two wet lesbians! Morgan said
with a foul smile. She and Peyton started cracking up at the
joke Morgan had said. I decided to walk over to Kai to ask if
she was all right when I felt a cold hand touch my shoulder.
Are you ready? And with that, Morgan grabbed the back of
my head and shoved my head into the toilet. Kai on the other
hand was on the floor being taunted by Peyton.
All right Morgan lets go. Weve helped enough people
for one day. Morgan released her grip off my head and I
pulled up out of the water gasping for air. I watched them strut
out of the bathroom as if on a runway. I turned to Kai who was
in a ball crying. I didnt know her very well. We only had one
class together and that was P.E. I dont exactly know what to
say to her either. Im the quiet shy girl that sits at the back of
the class when I can. I doubt she even knows who I am. I doubt
she even cares. All I know is that Im in no better of a situation
than she is, and I really dont want to go out of here looking
like this.
After about 5 seconds of fear I decide to talk to Kai. I
mean whats the worst that could happen? I mean especially
after that?
So, um.. Youre Kai Rush right?
Yeah. Thats me. I wish that it wasnt. Kai said with a
bit of dread. The thing I couldnt comprehend was that Kai was

Strange Encounters
(Kais POV)
(2 months ago)
It is Friday and school just let out. As soon as the bell
rang I made a mad dash to the door. When I almost reach my
favorite spot I hear the one voice that makes me grit my teeth.
