Chapter 3

Sydney's POV:

~1 & 1/2 Hours Later~

I wake up to a noise from the hallway. I hate being a such a light sleeper, it is really annoying. As I reach for my phone, I rub my eyes, as I notice I have a few text messages on my phone. It was my sister; she was letting me know that two boys stopped by the house asking for me. I cannot believe that these boys care about me even though they barely know me, maybe they are just worried because of what happened at school. I get up and I start looking for a dry sweater to put on, as I put on my sweater, I grab my phone and keys and put them in my pockets as I walk out the door and towards the front door. I better go talk with the boys and see what it was they needed or wanted.

Luke's POV:

"I hope that she is okay, it seems like she might get bullied on a regular basis. I am surprised she did not mention anything to us."

I say to the other boys as they are looking at me a bit shocked and worried with how much I seemed worried. I know they are probably worried too, but I am probably coming off very worried.

"Maybe that isn't a conversation you would have with a few guys you just met and that is more of after you have known each other for a while conversation."

Ash says as there is a knock on the front door of our house. Calum goes to the door and answers it. Sydney walks in as he opens the door, I look at her with a bit of widened eyes and a slight smile. She looks at all of us each with a slight sad face, she seems as if she is possibly sad about something.

"Hey guys, I am sorry that I just took off and stopped talking to you at school. I just felt very embarrassed that you guys had to see all of that...." 

She trails off as she looks down and plays with her hands. I go to say something but then Calum already speaks. Dang, I wanted to try to comfort her before one of them did but I guess I will have other times in the future to help her when she needs her.

"You're fine, I got upset when that girl tripped you. There was no reason for her to do that to you. And even if there was, I never want it to happen again. Luke and I could walk you to your classes on the way to our own to keep an eye on you and hopefully make you feel better and safer. Well, as long as you are okay with that that is?"

I smile at the fact that he said really good things, I was ready to get all worked up and not say anything calm. I'm ready to teach those girls a lesson but, I can't really do anything because they are "girls" and I'm a dude.

"I just don't want it to look like I have to have guys protecting me all of the time. I don't want to seem weak; I feel it might get worse..."

She says to us a little sadder then earlier.

"But at least we would be there to try to stop it and be there for emotional support if you need it..."

I say quickly before anyone else could say anything after her. I hate to see her sad, I know a barely know her but it makes me sad to see her like this. I look around at the boys to see if any of them might look a bit upset with everything being said and they seem like they are as well. All of the boy's nod to agree with what I had said. She looks around between us and smiles slightly. I notice it seems like that's probably what she wanted but, she probably didn't want to come out and just say it right away. I move over to go sit on the couch because I feel like we could relax now. Everyone else follows me. I sit on the small couch hoping Sydney would sit next to me, but Michael sits next to me first. I huff a little as I watch her sit next to Calum and Mikey and not next to me. 

"Now that we have things figured out should we order some pizza and play some video games?"

Michael says excitedly, I look at him but then look at everyone else. From the judging of their reactions Calum's up for it, Ash seems a little iffy on the idea, and Syd seems like she might want to be excited but is still in her head with everything that happened today. I don't really say anything because I am not sure what I want to do. If she isn't happy still, I would like to figure out how to make her happy. I'm not fully sure why I care to make her happy her favorite of us four is Ash, she told me that when we met. I get up and head upstairs to my room. I need to be alone so I can think and figure somethings out in my head and with my feelings.
