Anastasia's pov:

It's been 4 periods since everything happened in the cafeteria, I hate it when people speak bad about my best friend.

Next class we had English, I love English.

As I take my seat, again alone, but Mason tries to sit next to me.

I raise my hand and ask the teacher to change my seat, and she agreed. And she tells me to sit next to the new girl, Skyler. I've always been intimidated by Skyler, she's pretty and hot.

I smile at her and she smiles back, I've had a girl crush on Skyler for a very long time

I smile at her and she smiles back, I've had a girl crush on Skyler for a very long time.

I see Mason staring at me as I leave my seat and sit with Skyler.

The teacher finishes her class and I walk out and find Nina. Now I know what happened, she broke up, she had dark circles at the same time her eyes are swollen, at the same time her hair's a mess, and are those sweat pants.

"Heyyyy girlfriend, you look radiant." I say trying to cheer her up, and she smiles but starts crying at the same time.
"Do you want to bunk today, we can have ice cream and talk about how mean men can be?" I ask to which she nodded.

"I need to use the washroom." She tells me and I nod.
"I'll put my books in the locker and wait for you." I say and as I walk to the locker someone pulled me in store room. MASON

He cornered me. "Do you like Alex?" He asks me, and I look up to him and say, " If I did, there wouldn't have been coffee all over him, now would there?" I ask and he smirks.

"What'd he say to you?" He asks me, and I tell him," nothing that should concern you." I push him and try to walk away, he catches me again and pushes me against the wall and asks me,"Why'd you change your seat?" He says. The audacity he has. "I thought ou had nothing to do with me, that you make out with so many girls, then why do I matter? Why does it matter I change my seat? Why does it matter I go out with Alex or someone else?" I snapped.

He stares at me blankly. I smirk and push him harder than last time and walk out of the room. Put my books in the locker and then I see Nina, God she looks like a Zombie.

I take her to the parking lot, and she looks at me with surprise, she looks at my car with disbelief. Then I give her the 'I know' look.

'So Why'd you break up?' I ask after 5 minutes of silence. 'Turns out he is gay." She says and I look at her with shock. "How did you know?" I ask. "Saw him making out with another footballer." She says. I feel bad for her, I really do. "I came over to your house yesterday, not a soul was there." She says.

"Yeah, my dad's back in town, turns out he is not going again, so we moved to a bigger house." I say and she looks at me blankly. "That's nice. Where?" She asks me.

"Downtown. Remember, the dream house, we both said, we'd love to be in, Turns out my dad owns it." I say it's all true and yet it isn't. It kills me to lie to Nina.

Fortunately, she's heart broken and doesn't care about what I have to say. We have ice cream in silence, andi drop her home and drive to mine, and mom tells me dad isn't home, so I go to my room and rest for a little while.

Mason's pov:
I drive home. Ana's voice is in my head, and this feeling is new. It's like I could feel this burning sensation in my chest when I saw saw her talking to 'Alex'.

I ride home and Julius says to me," How was your day, Mase?" He says looking at me with a smug on his face.

"It was good Julius, or should I say Alex?" He looks at me and smiles.

"Oh brother, don't worry, it's merely a reminder that if you won't do what you're told, I will do it for you." He says.

"How long have you been keeping tabs on her?"I asked trying to hide my anger.

"For 2 years now, I gained weight because of her. I dated her bestfriend to know more about her, and now if you come to my room, you will se pictures of her. I've been planning this for a very long time." He says to me.

" I know you went to her house last night, I know you pulled her into the store room, I hope you're not catching feeling for your little girlfriend and now since she has spoiled my favorite t-shirt, I going to make her life a living hell." He roars.

I clench my jaw and make my hand into a fist, before I hurt him. "Like you said she's my project, so me doing whatever to her is a part of my plan too. I don't have feelings." I say to him and go up to room. Whenever I have to let out my anger, I work out hard. So, that's what I'm going to do, and I'm going to protect her from my wicked brother if I have to.
