"And who do we have here?" Elliot said to the other three boys as they proceeded to get closer to me. I felt enclosed and like I will never escape them as they got closer, wondering if they realized who I even am. I don't normally dress like this, since I'm usually just in a hoodie with my hair completely covered. I wondered though, how blind could these boys be to not realize that I'm the same girl that they have bullied for nine years despite how nicely dressed I currently am. They seem infatuated based off how I look tonight...not something that I feel comfortable with them doing. Jackson and Samuel got close enough to me for me to smell the cologne they were wearing before Jackson spoke, "She looks...delicious. A good birthday present for you two, I'd think." My cheeks reddened on
