The next week at school Della snubbed me again. I didn't want to upset her, but as long as I went out with Sean I knew I would. Not only that but I was also a married woman, something that from time to time escaped me altogether! Luckily Sean was a little slow in asking me for another date. I'm sure he couldn't work me out. For the next week I managed to put him off. Then I noticed Della chatting with Zack. I tried to put her off but I got told where to go. At lunchtimes I revised, and tried to cram as much study as I could in the short time. The main purpose of me being here hadn't escaped me, despite all the problems I encountered on the way. I had to get my stepdaughter into university, and after what had happened to her it was the least I could do. The nightmare that had happened just 6 months ago, played over in my mind. But I could never forgive myself for being such a coward.
From time to time I would roam around the quiet parts of the school, just really so I could think and have a few moments to myself. While I seemed to be able to carry the deceit quite well, from time to time I had to have my own space, so I could regroup in my head. It was while I was down by the gardens I came across Zack and Della. They were kissing and groping each other. I kept back watching them from behind a tree. Della seemed quite happy until Zack's hands started wandering up her skirt. She pushed him away but he seemed very determined. Della legs seemed to be trembling and she was starting to surrender to his advances. I could hear her little distressed cries as they kissed. Zack was becoming more aggressive. The bastard wasn't going to take no for an answer!
"Leave her alone," I hissed.
They both stopped and looked at me.
"Fuck off Becky!" Zack growled.
I pulled Della away from him. She pushed me back.
"What's up Becky do you want to pinch every bloke from me?"
"Della don't be upset, he, he's not right for you."
I looked at Zack who seemed to find this amusing.
"I told you Becky I'm going out with Della so stop pestering me for dates."
"Get lost Zack I wouldn't go out with you!" I screeched.
"You cow!" Della yelled. She began grappling with me and pushed me to the ground. I struggled but she soon sat on my chest and started pulling my hair.
"Della please stop, he only wants one thing!"
A hard slap hit my face. I could see Della wasn't going to stop. Her face became taut with concentration as she lashed out at me.
"You bitch did you come on to my bloke!" she screamed.
"NO!.... OUCH!" I screamed, as several strands of hair left my scalp.
"She begged me to go out with her Della; she even offered me a blowjob if I dumped you."
"Oh, you bastard!" I hissed at Zack, watching the smug grin spread over his face.
Della picked my head up by my ears and banged it on the ground. My face got slapped again and she spat at me.
"Go on Della beat the cow up!"
I looked up into the sea of faces that had gathered round. Boys and girls were now round in a circle.
"Go on fucking hit her!" someone shouted from the crowd.
I managed to roll her off of me and tried to scramble away. A great cheer went up as Della grabbed my ankle, and then she climbed on my back pinning me to the ground once more. She pushed my face into the dirt.
"Eat it you scrubber!" Della yelled, as my head was thrust back into the freshly dug soil.
It wasn't just Della now. I felt someone kick me in the ribs and a girl hauled me up by my hair I screamed with pain, and she spat in my face! I began crying and what little fight I had previously put up soon faded. I felt Della push my head down one last time. This time I ended up with a mouthful of dirt. I felt a final kick to my ribs by someone, as I lay sobbing. Slowly I pushed myself up. I could see the group of 50 kids or so, walking away from me through my messed up hair. I spat into the ground trying to get the soil out of my mouth. The laughing and excited talk of the group got further away. I began nervously surveying my body. I wiped my nose and looked at the blood. My ribs hurt although I told myself they weren't broken. My clothes had been ripped too, my blouse hung off my shoulder, and my tights had huge holes in them. Becky must have felt like this I told myself.
I looked up towards the voice that had been calling me for a short time.
"Oh Sean!" I cried, as I collapsed into his arms.
He tried to get me to tell him what had happened, I couldn't. Anyway no doubt he would hear soon enough.
Becky came to get me, her face looked like thunder. She didn't say anything until we got into the car.
"What the fuck is wrong with you? You are a bloody woman couldn't you defend yourself against an 18 year old?"
I shook my head. I think we both remembered that day 6 months ago at that moment.
For the next two weeks I kept myself to myself. Della eventually said she was sorry. I must admit it was out of character for her; she seemed shy but saw me as a threat to her. Maybe she thought I WAS going to steal her bloke! Sean and I dated once or twice but he could see I was holding back. He still kept on asking me out, and I had to find a way to let him down gently.
All through this Zack just watched me. He would barge past me and I would feel a hand grab my backside. I knew he would tell Della if I made a fuss, so I just put up with it. Miss Newark seemed to be losing patience with me too. I wouldn't tell her what the fight was about but I think she got to hear. I was slow to leave my class at the end of every day, even though I had to get the school bus home. But I just couldn't put up with all the teasing at the bus stop. My fight was becoming old news and the teasing began to die out. But I figured another week of holding back wouldn't hurt.
The Friday before a short holiday I hung back as usual. Even Miss Newark beat me out the door. I looked up at the clock another 5 minutes and I would make my way to the bus stop, getting there just before the bus turned up.
I jumped as a hand rested on my shoulder.
"Are you waiting for me Blowjob Becky?"
I felt a shudder run through my body as Zack's fingers undid a button under my tie.
"Please don't do this to me Zack," I whimpered.
He ignored me feeding his hand into my blouse, and then into the cup of my bra. I didn't struggle I just let him maul at my breast and nipple. I could feel and see my nervous pants blowing the stray hanging hairs, which had come out of my hairclips during the day.
"We are going to the potting shed Wednesday lunchtime, OK?"
I felt his lips kiss my neck.
"Once more Becky, one more blowjob then I'll leave you alone," he spat, squeezing my nipple hard.
