Chapter 12

"Hows football?" Journey asked as we sat in my bed. Her family came to my house for dinner, I remember before I was too ashamed to let her in, but I've learnt that's she's different, she's not big headed nor is her parents.

"It's good, I can't wait till I get my scholarship." I was extremely excited that I'm back at football, and it was all because of Journey.

"darling children, dinner time!" Xyleena came running into my room.

"Who's teaching you this." Journey pinched her cheeks.

"Netflix." She danced around s
As she danced I noticed she was wearing a short tutu.

"Xyleena, you skirt it too short, go change it."

"I think it cute." Journey interfered causing me to mug her.

"I'm trying to look sexy." Xyleena argued.
She made a few poses before I started to laugh.

"For who?" I asked with my eyebrows raised.

"To find love, mummy said I can have babies when in love."

"Child how old are you?" Journey asked her.

"A number." She cheekily replied then ran out the room.

"Xavier your sister need help, she's not serious."

We both started laughing as we left the room.

"Xavier how's football? I hope your getting the scholarship." Christian asked me. He was a friendly person, the only problem was that he looked angry most of the time but that's probably his business man face.

"It's good, and yeah I hope I get it aswell."

"What about you Frank? How's you job going?"

Spending time around the Thomas' has opened up my dads eyes, he decided to start looking for better jobs, he had went school and university, he's always wanted to become a dental hygienist but gave up when my mum fell sick, but now she's better and is back to designing, that was the job she had before she fell sick, and my dad was starting his new job soon.

"Well I'm glad that your starting a better job, atleast we can get out of this place." I commented before digging into the food.

JOURNEYS POV

We held hands as we walked the the shopping centre, I wanted ice cream so badly and Xavier said he would get it for me because he had lost our bet.

He opened three door and let me walk in first, I walked to the glass and looked at all the different flavours, I wish I could get them all.

"Could I get a bubble gum and lemon ice cream please, in a normal cone." The lady nodded and asked Xavier what he wanted, he placed the same order as mine and we waited for the lady to prepare our ice cream.

"Xavier?" A girl behind us asked with some time of attitude.
We both looked back and saw Jessica, I had completely forgotten about her, I never liked her but I never hated her.

"Jessica?... Wait Who is the boy?" Xavier asked as we stared at them two holding hands.

"Xavier right? oh hi.. erm, I've heard a lot about you." Joseph said.

"What do you mean hi, we haven't spoken for before, and what are you hearing about me?"

"Well you decided to date a rich girl and your not rich, people talk, plus Jessica has told me a lot about you."

"Meh." Xavier shrugged unbothered.
"You two definitely match each other, have my leftovers."

Joseph grew angry, he stared at Xavier with pure hate, I wasn't shocked, Xavier literally called them leftovers, of course aryan would react.

"You have no rights to talk, your with a rich girl, you probably fooling her just so you can have her money then run off." Joseph shouted right in front of Xaviers face.

Xavier laughed and stepped closer to him. "Why? Are you jealous? Your girlfriend is literally pass the parcel, pathetic, let's not forget she's from the same place as me."

"I'm not jealous, and Jessica is not from the broken homes, stop lying about her, your just a pathetic person and do you wanna know why? It's cause your a broke boy, and will forever be a broke boy till you die. Stop forcing yourself on her, there's better boys out there that won't weigh her down like you do, even being poor is getting to your mum, she's about to die and your here. Your life is pathetic!" Joseph screamed into his face

"He's lying baby, I'm not poor like him." Jessica lied. It was clear she was lying about her wealth however it was easy for her to fool anyone, she dressed like she had money.

Joseph punched Xavier on his face and Xavier pushed him back trying to avoid causing a fight in a public place with a rich boy he knew nothing about, knowing fully well he'd be the one to get in trouble. They kept going back and forth until eventually Xavier got tired of Joseph pushing and punching him so he balled up his fists and punched Joseph which caused blood to spatter out his mouth.

"Xavier that's enough." I tried to grab him back but he just pushed me which caused me to hit the floor.

I sat there as I watched him give another punch to Joseph, these punches were not normal, they were full strength, each time he punched him there was more blood that appeared.

Joseph shouted in pain and Jessica tried to pull them apart but failed, I continued to watch Xavier lunch him more times until Joseph eventually fell to the floor.

I thought Xavier was done by now, I got up and tried to pull him away, until Nospeh got back up and hit Xavier on the face with something metal, Xavier didn't flinch, he took it upon himself to stomp on Joseph, I grabbed him as tight as I could but yet again he pushed me. I landed on the floor but harder this time causing me to groan in pain.

"Ouch!" I moaned as I landed on the ground.

Xaviers head flicked back to my direction and he saw me on the floor with my eyes watering.

"s-sorry I didn't mean to." He tried to bend down and help me up but I moved away from him.

"You told me you were taking your medication." I cried as I backed away from him.
I have never seen him like this before, I wish I still didn't have to him like this.

"I said I'm sorry!" He yelled at me causing me to flinch.

"No! Stop! What's wrong with you? Stop letting words get to you." I cried.

I heard police sirens from afar, they were getting louder until they eventually came to a stop.

Two female police officers walked into the shop.

I looked back at Xavier with more tears flooding down my face, I know it was the shop owner that called the police, and I was certain they were about to take Xavier.
