It was the start of winter and it was colder than usual so i wore my sweater to school. i was in history class and saw that girl again but this time she wasn't staring like she did last semester.

How do i approach someone so good looking i asked myself. "you don't" i sighed under my breathe. The bell rang it was time for lunch but i wasn't hungry but i got food anyway.

I sat at a tree this time as the tables were too crowded and loud for my liking. A group of kids came and hung out at the same tree i was sitting at. I couldn't get one minute of alone time but whatever who needs it?

There she was, that girl in my first and fourth period. she was talking to this guy and the friends around her, i wondered what it felt like having friends but everyone seemed to keep their distance from me.

They were laughing but don't know what for and all of a sudden he raised his fist going to hit her with full force. She looked scared so i quickly lunged in front of her and he punched my stomach full force. even with reinforced steel in my body it still hurt so i fell on one knee.

Guy: Dude what's your problem?

Eli: You were going to hit her i couldn't allow it.

Guy: you're fucking weird dude.

He walks away. As i'm struggling to breathe i get up and look at her. She looked either shy or scared, she looks up at me.

?: h-hi?

Eli: hey.

she couldn't keep direct eye contact with me but she instantly looked back at me.

Eli: i'm Eli.

Yasuda: Yasuda. nice to meet you i guess

Eli: Yeah.

The bell rang.

Yasuda: okay. bye!

she walked away to her group of friends.
Maybe i should've minded my business but i didn't want her hurt. I walked to my class, embarrassed.
