Olivia Rain (#wattys2016)

Chapter 10 ✔

Walking into school I keep my head down staring at the floor not bothering to watch where Im going. Halfway down the hall I fall back after walking into a hard wall. Not a wall but a guy. A guy with dirty blonde hair and green eyes on his face.

"Hey I remember you." Oh god why would he remember me of course he has too the smoking hit newbie has to remember me. "I live right across from you. Here I'll help you up." He reaches down and grabs my hand and pulls me to my feet.

"Th-thanks." I stutter as he keeps his hand in mine. I look down to our hands and he does the same. "Sorry." He pulls away and walks off. Weird. This school is getting to me.

I walked into algebra to see green eyes (the newbie) sitting in the back. I groan before going to my seat in the back thankfully two rows away from him. During the class I felt as if someone was watching me the entire time. Finally the bell rang and I sprinted out of class not bothering to stop as the newbie tries to catch up. I avoided my friends the entire day until lunch.

Until lunch I was able to avoid all of them since I was still mad and still sore and bruised. I couldn't avoid them when they all sat down at my table outside in the corner where I had been trying to sleep. Since all last night I hadn't gotten any sleep because of reacuring nightmares. I hadn't even bothered to get lunch.

"Olivia you have to eat." I laid my head back down as Sophie talked. "Liv please look at us." I realize as I look up that the guys aren't around. Just the four girls that have become my friends in the last couple months. "Liv please were sorry OK we didn't think it would be this bad." I looked over towards Jaden as she spoke.

Suddenly getting angry at my so called friends I laid my head back down not wanting to say something I would regret. "Olivia Hope Rain look at me right now and talk to me!"

I stood up and slammed my fists against the table. "Listen to me and listen good all four of you know what I've been through you know that I requested one thing one fucking thing for you to do but of course you go against me and do this one thing and now you expect me to forgive you for doing this you expect me to not be mad! You expect me to do all this after you betrayed my one and only secret and then you make it worse! My situation Is even worse no-" I stop eyes wide at the information that slipped away. "Oh fuck me universe."

"Olivia what did you say?" Before anymore questions can come out I run towards the front of the school and towards my home only to be caught in a pair of arms at the fountain in front of the school. "And where are you going at this time?" I look up at the green eyes and dirty blonde hair of the newb. Of course just had to run into my neighbor. "Uh..uh....I'm going h-home." Stuttering really in front of green eyes good god.

Can life get any worse?

"Yeah it can." Oh crap I said that out loud shit.

"I said that out loud didn't I?" He nodded and I realized he was still holding my arms. I cleared my throat and looked towards his hands around my arms. "Oh sorry." He removed his hands and I immediately missed the warmth they brought.

"I never got your name."

"Olivia Rain."

"Well Olivia Rain my names Jake Baxter and it was an amazing thing to meet such a lovely girl on my first day of school." He grabbed my hand and kissed my knuckle lightly as I shivered from the touch. "Uh... I should get going."

"Where are you going in the middle of the school day?" He says as he releases my hand and steps back to look me up and down. "And why are you wearing jeans and a long sleeve shirt when it's almost 80℉ out?"

" I'm going home." He looks slightly surprised as I said this but stays and looks around before saying words that will start a whole new adventure in my life: "I'll come with you so your not alone."
