Is it Love?

He isn't good for her

It's been a week. Taylor didn't speak a word to anyone in the group, and now, for four days, a guy was following her around. As far as someone tried talking to her, he dragged her away. After finding out she used to listen to music with Ben, he took away her headphones. Aiden didn't understand how Tyler could let that happen. That guy was clearly controlling Taylor, forcing her to do something she didn't want to. Aiden was convinced he once saw her having a bruise, but no one else saw it. She also always seemed scared around that guy. Who is he?

It was pe class. Everyone did their own thing. The guy again was around Taylor. When a ball flew across the hall towards Ashlyn, Taylor screamed.

"Ashlyn dug!"

Ashlyn did how Taylor said, and the ball barely missed her. Before she could thank her friend, the guy yelled at Taylor.

"What did I tell you! You are not allowed to talk to any of them! Do you understand me, you ungrateful brat!"

Taylor stood there in shock, tearing up.

"I am sorry, Dad. The ball was about to hit her, and she's.. "

"She isn't your friend. Don't you love me, then stop acting like you care about them."

Taylor was standing there crying, her breaths heavy, and everyone could see that she was scared. Before she could answer, Dan flew to the ground. Taylor, look up to see Ben's angry face. He punched Dan in the face so he would lose the balance. The whole class was quiet, and the group ran to them. Aiden held back his cousin. Tyler just looked at his shaking sister. The guy looked at Taylor with an angry expression.

"Say something!"

He yelled at her.

"I.. I am sorry."

She looks at Ben. Her expression would say she was mad, but her eyes truly said she was scared.

"Ben, why did you do that? Dan is my, Dan doesn't deserve this. You have no right to just hit people who are important to me."

She tried to yell, but her voice was filled with fear. The Dan guy stood up standing in front of Taylor. His height was between Tyler and Ben, but he wasn't really well built. Even his appearances didn't look like something Taylor would like.

"That's all I get? Your so-called friend hurts me, and that's all I get from you? You are pathetic. It's over."

Dan said before leaving. Taylor still seemed to be of him, but she was also relieved to be free now. Ashlyn was just looking from each member of our group to the other. Until her eyes met Taylor's.

"Explain."

She said in calm but still demanding voice.

"He promised to help me with."

Taylor answered but didn't finish. Ashlyn and Tyler seemed to know what she would say to finish it and just nodded.

"You are supposed to be the smarter twin of you, you know that, right?"

Tyler remarked.

"I am sorry, Ty. I was being an idiot."

Tyler hugged his sister.

"Just don't do that again. And speak with me."

Taylor hugged her brother back, and her body language became a lot more relaxed.
