| Grace Camron POV|

Monday 8:32am

I walked into my first class of the day which in a way I was excited for.

Nick Nelson...

He seems nice, he has a dog Nellie, he likes rugby, and some weird Oreo chocolate bar he raved about.

When Mr. Thompson started talking I immediately zoned out and started talking with the boy sitting next to me.

We ended up having to do partner work together which I didn't mind but maybe Nick did.

" are you going to Harry Greens party Wednesday after the game?" Nick asked me.

" oh yeah I Hurd about that... I might go it sounds like fun." I said and smiled.

" you should come I'll be there along with everyone else from rugby of course." Nick said in a way that made me laugh and he gave me a cheeky grin.

" are you trying flirting with me Nick Nelson?" I questioned.

He laughed. " maybe.... But still you should come." He said softly.

" I'll think about it." I told him. Class went on and when we all started packing up our bags I got the courage to ask Nick something I've been waiting to ask.

"  possibly would you want to come study over at my place with me?" I asked Nick.

He looked at me and smiled.

" Grace Camron are you trying to flirt with me?" He mocked me from our earlier conversation.

I rolled my eyes and smirked.

" I'm not sure I want you coming over anymore." I told him playfully.

" we'll here's my number text me when you change your mind." Nick smiled and handed me a piece of paper.

Before I could respond the bell rang and Nick left.

I just got Nick Nelson's phone number.... I don't know weather to scream or cry... maybe neither I'm sure he doesn't even like me like that anyway.

I knew he was joking.

————————-

I grabbed my bag and headed to my next class. I turned the corner when suddenly someone grabbed my arm and pulled me into an empty room.

When I looked up I seen Ben and he looked pissed.

" get away from me.." I told him seriously. I tried to push him away from the door but he kept blocking me in.

" stop resisting me Grace." He said and I immediately knew what was going to happen next.

I backed away from him as much as I could and shook my head at him.

" no ben.... I don't want you around me anymore please just go." My voice cracked.

He walked towards me when suddenly the door swung open and to my surprise it was Nick Nelson.

Thank god!!

Nick furrowed his eyebrows.

" Grace are you okay?" He asked looking at me then Ben.

" mate get out of here." Ben told Nick.

" no.... Ben please leave me alone.." I told Ben. Nick looked up at me then Ben.

" she wants you to leave.." Nick finally spoke.

" Go Ben." I told him. He stared at me for a moment then muttered something and left the room.

I let out a breath I didn't realize I was holding.

" are you okay?" Nick asked me.

I nodded. " Grace.... Please don't lie if you aren't." Nick said softly.

I felt the tears in my eyes.

Nick kept looking into my sad eyes with his worried ones.

" I'm okay Nick." I mumbled but I knew the tears from my eyes ment otherwise.

" we should get going." I said grabbing my bag and whipping my eyes.

Nick grabbed my arm and I looked up at him.

" what did Ben do?" He asked.

That question broke me in a way.

I looked away from Nick and promised myself I would cry infront of him anymore.

" I'm fine Nick.." I told him.

When I pulled away from his grasp he didn't try to hold on he let go.

I exited the room and knew that I needed to pull a fake face or knew everyone will just continue to ask questions...

But im okay...... right?
