SAVANNAH'S POV

"Billy!" I ran towards him.

He stops and smiles. "Hi Savannah."

"Hey. How are you today?"

"Good. Thanks. You?"

"Im fine. Are you excited for tonight?"

We started walking along the hallway together and he didn't answer right away.

Billy shakes his head. "I'm actually a bit more scared of it. I just hope I won't get too paddled so I could still survive."

I smiled at him ruefully. I know I can't change his mind to make him back out and I think they're not allowed to back out anymore. "I want you to have this." I handed him my lucky coin.

Billy accepts it and stares at the coin for a while. "Hey it's a very classic coin Savannah. This is antique. Look at the date it's 1875."

"It's my lucky coin. It has a sentimental value to me. I've had that since I was little." I smiled.

He nods. "What's this for? Why are you giving it to me?"

"I'm not giving it to you. I'm letting you borrow it. I always have that on my pocket when I have exams or when I'm nervous before I do something. It sort of helps me. I hope it'll help you."

He smiles. "I'm sure it will. You're really nice Savannah. Thank you for this. I'll hold on to it tonight."

"I just want to make sure you'll be alright tonight. You're Kurt's brother anyways."

He smiled.

When he was about to put it inside his pocket, a guy from behind pulled it from his hands and when we looked over to who did it and it was Baxter alongside his evil soldiers. He started flipping the coin on his finger and had that devilish smile on his face while looking at me.

"Give it back to him." I said right away.

Baxter chuckles. "Well well well, looks like we've seen each other again."

He pulls his hand up and brushes his thumb under my chin. I pulled my head back away from Baxter, feeling disgusted by what he did.

"Don't touch her." Billy fired back.

"Ohhh. I'm really scared of you, wimp. Where's your back up? Oh wait, you're still a fucking recruit." Baxter said as he strongly push Billy and laughed.

Billy almost fell on the ground but I quickly caught him. Baxter and his friends laughed at him like they were having fun with what they were doing and well the other students around us were laughing at us too. In every school there will always be a bully only that this bully is not a high school bully. I need to get rid of my mindset as a high schooler. Baxter's a goddamn frat member, a whole new level of being a bully and I know he's dangerous cos Tracy and Aries warned me about him to stay away.

"I said give it back to him Baxter!" I tried to reach for the coin but then he tries to kiss my lips so I had to back off.

Him and his friends continued laughing even louder while the coin was still on his grasp, tossing it to the air then catches it right back on his hand. It's a very memorable and important coin to me cos I had it when I was only seven. My gramps gave it a week before he died of lung cancer. I can't lost that now. It's too valuable to me.

"You want it? Come and get it." He smirked at me cockily.

"That's not even yours! Give it back to me! You're being so childish right now and to think you're already an adult!" I'm yelling at him now.

"Not unless you answer my question darling. Why are you hanging out with those bozos?" He asked.

"Bozos?" I asked back.
