The Mafia Man

1

Kacey Leigh walked alone entering her high school for her final year which her head held high she wasn’t a normal teen no one looked at her that way she was in no way what you called sexily she wore dark clothes and dark makeup, and she hair dyed black with hints of blue. She smiled as her best friend Milly Adams, a slightly overweight plump girl with no dress sense whatsoever.

She almost looked like a hippy that everyone took the piss out of even though she was a sweet and caring girl they couldn’t care less all that mattered was them taking the lids of her weight something that she couldn’t control he’d been on so many diets heat had failed to accomplish her goal to be at least three stone lighter.

All the diets she’d been on had failed dramatically making her take a step backwards and give up. Kacey had not given up on her friend and had even done some of the most ridiculous diets ever to help her friend lose weight.

They hugged.

"Oh look who it is the losers."

Giving them the finger Kacey guided Milly away.

"Hey look it’s fatty and weirdo.’

"f**k you go crawl under a rock and die Hemings."

"Ooh, I’m so f*****g scared."

"You f*****g will be. Now f**k off!"

"Language Miss Leigh."

"Sorry, sir."

Hemmings sniggered.

"And that goes for you, Miss. Hemmings or you’ll be in detention for harassing other pupils on your first day back you wouldn’t want that now, would you?"

My turn to snigger.

"No sir."

"Get to your lesson."

"Sir."

Mr White was our maths teacher last year. I learnt so much in his lessons unlike the other maths teachers we’ve had in the past at least he helps you out when you can’t understand a fuckin thing he’s on about.

I hope we have him this year. Here’s to hoping. I and Milly sat next to each other in registration and we had most of the lessons together and we had Mr White as our maths teacher again. Can’t wait.

We had maths third period before lunch and phys Ed for the remaining 2 hours oh joy both me and Milly hate it we both get bullied Milly worse because of her weight I hate this f*****g bitches I promised mom I wouldn’t fight this year and get into trouble how can I promise that when I’m getting bullied? When my best friend cries cause of those bitches? I don’t f*****g think so.

Milly groaned. "God, I hate phys Ed."

"So do I. Don’t forget I’m with you babe if those bitches start I’ll crush them."

"Don’t Kayse I don’t want you getting in trouble for me.'

"I won’t."

"You will. They’ll expel you this time for sure and I can’t do this place alone."

"They won’t, I promise."

After our morning lessons, break, lunch and registration we head off to P.E. Unfortunately for us the bitches are already there and staring at us. We try to ignore their snide comments but it gets too hard and too tiresome. Milly is almost in tears, that’s it I’ve had enough.

"Oi bitch."

"Are you talking to me, freak girl?"

"How’s about you shut your f*****g hole before I fill it.

"I’m not scared of you, weirdo."

"Oh, you will be."

"What? are you and fatty going to belly flop on me?" She laughed."

I’ve had enough of this b***h. "Don’t you dare call her fat, at least she’s not a f*****g stick?"

"At least I’m not f*****g ugly."

"Take a f*****g look in the mirror. Oh, I forgot it smashed into tiny pieces at your ugliness."

"Why you bitch." She ran for me.

I sidestepped her and she landed on her face. I laughed. She pulled herself up going for me but I was too fast.

My fist connected to her face, and she stumped. I took another punch at her and she fell to the floor getting up. She took her shot. Punch after punch was thrown before we got separated.

The headmaster looked at me. "I’m disappointed in you Kacey Leigh. I hoped this year would be different."

"It would’ve been sir if they stopped bullying us and left us alone."

"We’re here to help Kacey."

"Well, you're not letting me deal with this my way."

"Fine, but you have detention for this week."

"Sure."

"Starting tonight with Mr Knight."

I groaned. "Great."

"Did you say something, Miss Leigh?"

"No sir."

"He’s waiting for you in room 10."

"Can’t wait," I said, under my breath.

"Oh I’ve booked some self-defence lessons for you and Milly I think it will do you both some good."

"Thanks, sir," I said walking out the door. Closing it.

I walked down the corridor. I guess Milly has gone guess she knows I have detention, mom's going to be pissed.

I knock on the door, "it's open, come in."

I walk in. "What a nice surprise Kacey please take a seat."

"Don’t lie, sir, we all know I’ll get detention either at the beginning of the school year or later," I said sitting down.

He nodded.

Gee that was the most boring 30 mins of my life. "You may go now, Miss. Leigh, let's hope this isn’t a recurrence this year."

"Sir."

I got up and left the class walking out of the school.

"Well look who it isn’t."

I turn. "Sherry."

"So how was detention weirdo?"

"f**k you!"

"Ooh, such harsh words."

"Do wish to have another black eye? I can arrange it."

She nodded the three girls circled us great the rest of the f*****g Hemmings. "So you weren’t to take me on you take us all on."

"Bring it on.'

She nodded I was too quick for them unaware that I was being watched. I slid under them and they flew in the air as my foot connected with their ankles. I spun.

My ankles crossed over around their necks as I twisted them and brought them down seen as they were supposed to be the toughest girls in this f*****g school they had nothing on me.

My brother was a mixed martial arts instructor and he taught me everything I knew. With three down and one to go, I took my stance, she had no f*****g chance. She took a stance so we attacked one another inside and steeped her.

My fly kick hit her in the face, taking her off balance so I fisted her in the face leaving her laying there. I walked away.

The black BMW X6 was sitting outside the gates now I was scared. The shots came out of nowhere now I was scared. The back door of the BMW X6 opened. "Get in."

"No f*****g way."

"You have two options little girl, either stay there and get shot at and die or get in and be safe."

I preferred number two even if I was ’t sure if I would be safe in the car with a stranger. I slipped in and closed the door. "Good choice little girl. Drive Michel."

The car pulled away.

"I’m not a little girl for your information. I’m sixteen I’m far from little."

He chuckled what the f**k was so funny?

"Orlando Green, and what’s your name princess?"

"So I’m a princess now? First I’m little now in a f*****g princess how f*****g hilarious seriously, WTF?"

"Your name."

"Kacey Leigh."

"Well, it’s a pleasure."

Hold on.

"Hey, where are we going?"

"Somewhere safe. The Hemmings does take kindly to a kid's whooping ass."

"I already told you, I’m not a f*****g kid and how the hell do you know the Hemmings?"

"If you agree on seeing again then I’ll tell you."

"What? Aren’t you a little old for me?"

He laughed again. "I’m twenty sweetheart. And no I’m not too old for you. I like feisty girls who know how to protect themselves."

"I need to get home, my parents will kill me."

"Later we need to make sure the Hemmings isn’t following you sweetie so hold tight and enjoy the ride."
