A few seconds go by until he looks up at me. I blush. He moves hair out of my face. "Are you okay Y/N?" I couldn't believe he was talking to me. "Mostly. I think I am still processing what just happened." He looks at me worried. "Be careful okay?" I nod my head and the bell rings. The teacher wasn't in the room when this happened.
I walk over to my friends and tell them what happened. Half of them look worried and confused, the other half feel happy for me that Ethan stood up for me. After that, our eye contact was more frequent. Not just in the hallways.
A few days later...
I walk up to the water fountain to get some water. A tall figure walks up to me. I see the shadow towering above me. "Hey Y/N." I turn around to see him staring right at me. "Oh hey Ethan." I say back. "I just wanted to check on how your doing. Has Daniel been bothering you much?" I looked shocked at the fact that he's checking on me. "Oh he hasn't said much to me after what happened. Oh and thank you. I really appreciated that." I remark. "No problem. I protect all of my friends. We are friends, right?" Ethan asks curiously. "Of course! Well I gotta dip cya later." I say. "Bye Y/N." He smiles and walks away.
I walk away blushing and then I walk to my last class. This is my last class with Daniel alone. And this is also the day that his tall, strong, kind of a bully, friend I'd back. His name is David. This could go very wrong.
I walk into the class and scan the room. So far, no Daniel or David. I proceed to sit at my desk. The bell rings and I sigh happy that they aren't in the class. Until they are. David is searching through the room until he meets eye contact with me. It was as if he thought, "Target acquired." because right after that he walked up to me.
"Are you Y/N?" He asks angrily. "No. Who's that?" I play it off and he falls for it until Daniel walks up. "You liar." Daniel says. "You got your little boyfriend to beat me up. You're gonna have to pay for it. I have a couple plans in mind." Daniel smirks and David stands beside me prepared to help.
I quickly get up and ask to use the restroom. I bolt out of the classroom and run into Ethan. "Shit I'm sorry." I look up to see Ethan and I immediately stutter. "It's alright. What's the rush?" Ethan asks concerned. "Um... nothing." I look away and lie. Ethan grabs my chin. "Don't lie to me. What's wrong?" He says seriously. "Daniel and David..." I whisper. Ethans jaw immediately tenses up angry and frustrated. "Now what?" Ethan says annoyed. "They said they were gonna make me pay for it." I say. "Those fuckheads. Do you know if they meant it sexually? Were they gonna fuck you?" Ethan asks. "I think so..." I look down as I say it.
Ethan spots them and walks up to them. "Your such a pussy Daniel. You got David to do your dirty work." Ethan says pissed. "Oh shut up. You only defended that whore over there so you could fuck her." Daniel says. "Don't call her a whore dickhead." Ethan defends. "Or what?" David says. "Oh fuck off don't make me beat you too."
Ethan stands up tall. "Look don't get involved in anything you don't want to." Daniel grabs me. "Let go of me!" I protest. "Relax I'm just gonna experiment." Daniel winks and forces my hand on his hardened dick. "Feel it baby feel it." Daniel laughs. "That's enough!" Ethan says. He shoves Daniel. "Someone jealous?" Daniel teases. "Of what? A little boy too scared to handle a girl by himself? I'm not jealous." Ethan immediately says back.
Ethan punches Daniel. "Fuck..." Daniel holds his bloody mouth. "Get him David." David punches Ethan onto the ground. "ETHAN!!" I yell. "Looks who's side piece is calling after him. You might wanna tell her who you've been talking to." David laughs.
Ethan pounces on David. Leaving him with a broken nose and a bruised face. "It's not worth it man. Let's go." David says. They walk off and Ethan is left standing there with a bruised forehead. "Ethan are you okay?" I walk up to him. "Just leave me alone." Ethan says hurt as he walks away. I watch him walk away feeling hurt and sad.
I start to tear up. I hate seeing when he's hurt and I wanted to know what I could do to help. "Wait!" I say calling after Ethan. Ethan stops for a second. He turns around, and faces me. "Let me help you." I say offering to help him.
