"Hey Belle I loved the show so far, you really stayed those two episodes" a girl said as she passed me in the hallway

"Thank you"

"But like why can't you give me Aryans number" I looked at Sarah after closing my locker

"Because why would I Sarah ?"

"But he's like really cute, wait does he have a girlfriend ?" I felt the urge to say that he has one but I didn't know why. I was also really annoyed at the fact that she wanted his number and called him cute but yet again I didn't understand why

"He doesn't. But still that's like confidential I can't go around and give their number away"

"Oh please Belle"

"No." She rolled her eyes as we made our way to our next class, history and as much as Sarah annoyed me I was glad she was with me. I feel like she changed since last year, like she somehow got more respectful and polite in a way

"Dude is it true that Jason cheated on you with your best friend ?!" A girl asked me, I didn't answer and just kept walking

Sarah went straight to her friends when we entered our history classroom, leaving me standing there looking really lost, but she turned and waved me to her, i gladly joined her at a table with a few girls

"Oh my god, I like loved Percy Jackson" one of the girls told me "could you like sign my copy if I brought it here to school tomorrow ? I've been a fan for ages"

"Yeah sure why not"

"That's like so cool"

"Alright class please sit on your seats and open page 187 in your books" I turned to face the teacher but one of the girls grabbed my arm and pulled me towards her to whisper in my ear

"Don't think because of your little acting role you're better than us, I know what you did" I looked at her a little dumbfounded

"What did I do?"

"Claribel, I'm glad to see you settled in so quickly but if we could please leave the taking for the break"

"Of course, sorry misses Williams" she shot me a quick smile, I loved my history teacher, she was kind and was actually good at teaching and making class interesting but I couldn't get the words out of my head because what did I do ? I genuinely didn't know

"Lunch finally" The girl I sat next to says grabbing her books and getting up

We went to the lockers first leaving our books and things there and grabbing our lunch

When we got to the cafeteria I noticed a group of people standing in a circle and looking at something that was going on in the middle of it

The girls I was with looked at each other and grinned before joining the group of people, I followed them trying to figure out what was going on

"Belle" someone I didn't really recognise pulled me further into the circle by my arm and then helped me get to the front which I was really confused about until I saw what was going on

Walker had blood dripping from his nose and was punching Jason, who also had blood running down his face but looked a lot worse than my Brother

"Walker" I pushed myself through the last few people in front of me "Walker stop" it was like he didn't even hear me, he punched Jason another time "Walker, Walker stop it" I noticed the many cameras pointed towards him, I didn't know what the videos in the public would do to him but I feared it wouldn't be good. I stepped a little closer "Walker" a teacher came through and separated the two of them after Walker had gotten another punch in "What was that Walker" I asked my twin pulling him closer to me so not everyone could hear our conversation "Walker talk to me, everyone saw that you know, videos were made that will be online within the next couple of minutes"

"I don't care" he touched his nose to find the blood "I wanted to do that for a while"

"Walker Scobell, come with me" Walker looked at me for a second his expression softening just a little seeing the anxious look I gave him before following the teacher, I grabbed walkers backpack that I had just seen and followed them too

We went to the principles office and sat there inside the room for a while, I grabbed a pack of tissues out of my bag and started cleaning the blood of his face a little, Walker looked pissed, I mean I had seen Walker mad before but never like this

"Want to tell me what this was about now ? You're like sure as hell getting suspended, maybe even expelled"

"Belle I couldn't care less, this was worth all of that" I didn't understand what he meant, because no one would tell me

We got into the Principals office soon and just sat there

"So mister Scobell, it looks like mister hart had a broken nose" Walker just snorted a laugh "Do you have anything to say for yourself ? I think you understand that this looks really bad for you right now"

"Is nobody going to do anything about the bleeding ?" I ask a little confused

"Look mister Harris, I don't see my mistake" I just looked at him, he chose to say that ?! "Jason was saying... things, lies. I overheard and said to stop talking that way. He kept provoking me" I was really confused now

"Oh yeah ? Is that so ? Care to enlighten me on what things he was saying ? About who was he talking ? Please a little more detail Scobell" He looked at me, then the principal and sighed

"He was talking about Belle. He was spreading lies that would affect her and wouldn't stop even after I asked him. Now if I'm going to get punished for protecting my sister I will gladly accept it" my look softened now, he did that for me ? He was facing suspension because of me ? I wanted to hug him so bad, but I just sat there with him until our parents came, Leena had joined us too in the principals room after finding out what happened
