Everyone knows

You arrive at school a little later than usual, it seems you are quite anxious to know what will happen to you. You can see a big group amassed in front of the school's reception desk. It seems a lot of people have their eyes locked on the school newspaper. It seems like today's articles are quite successful.

You grab one and you see the big headline BENJAMIN FINSHIELD, BULLY AND CROSSDRESSER. You skim through the article and you don't find your own name in it, it doesn't mean you're safe though as Benjamin isn't a fool and you're the only one he bullies.

You look up and see everyone is watching you but as you reflexively turn around, you see that they weren't looking at you but at Benjamin who just arrived at school. He grabs the paper in your hand with no effort and it seems like he freezes for a second.

Then his whole face becomes red. He looks around while trembling slightly.

"W-WHAT DID YOU DO ?" He shouts while grabbing you by your shirt.

However, he calms down as people around him start snickering quietly. He releases his grip and runs down the corridor.

You feel a little bad for him but at the same time, you feel GREAT. If you knew it would have this effect you would have done this way sooner. You were not expecting him to react like that but you're not complaining.

You then go to class with a big smile on your face. It feels good to win for once. You definitively are in a good mood but it isn't enough for you to actually enjoy your classes and as you patiently wait for the old clock to ring, you feel your phone vibrates on your hip. You check it and you've just received a message.

"Hey it's Jessica, do you mind seeing me at the library this evening ?"

How did she even get your number?

Whatever, you tell her that you'll be there and try to pay attention to the teacher which seems way too happy to explain half equation to his sleepy students.
