10. No.

Hey everyone, just a reminder all the student characters in the story are fourteen. Thanks x

Ellie's Point of view

I think we all know that feeling of having loads of days off school and not wanting to come back but I've missed a week off and I don't know what rumour will be going round about me now.

I walked on my own keeping my head down, I thought I was going to be sick, everyone hated me, the students in my class and the teachers thought I was responsible for someone's death.

I know It's going to get worse even though Sophie said it wouldn't, I know it is. I just sat down on my own and Lola was already there and the teacher looked at me in disgust, wasn't anyone going to listen to me?

I wanted to cry but that would make me look weak and I remember Sophie always told me how weakness was a way of showing how strong you were on the inside, I remember her wise words and how she helped me no matter what I did.

Lola started 'crying' again and the teacher asked me to go out side with her,
"Ellie why are-"
"I'm not being mean to Lola, I've never done anything bad to her! Sophie was my best and only friend! Charlie left me, so did Lola. I even had to go home the other week because she pulled a chunk out of my hair and I was bleeding. I went home that night and If my mum wasn't worried about me I probably would've killed myself already! When Sophie left her mum got a new job, I never said anything mean to her, I am the one who is struggling through all this! No one has asked me about how I'm feeling or even bothered to ask me if I'm okay. I'm not." I then took a deep breath and just burst out crying.

She then hugged me tight and took me down to reception to see the school nurse, like what the actual-

Charlie's Point of view

She left the room and I looked at Lola who was smirking,
"You are evil, you know that right?" I asked
"Yes, yes I am." She said kissing my cheek.
"Lola?"
"Yes babe." Ugh.
"Why do you love me?"
"Well.. You're like.. Really fit." I frowned
"Is that it?"
"Well yeah, What else is there?" I swear she is the most dumbest girl I met..
"So if I looked like I did a few months ago.."
"Oh, you'd have no chance."
I then got up and walked out into the bathroom. She is a bitch, why do I like her? Oh wait I don't.. I looked at myself in the mirror, my mum was right, what have I become..

Back To Ellie's Point of view

"You sound really depressed." She said after I told her about everything that has happened to me in the last month.
"I'm not, I just need sometime to.. Get over it."
"I know it isn't easy, now if you don't mind.. Could you tell me more about this letter?"
"Sophie knew things were going downhill so she wrote a letter for me when things got worse."
"So Charlie, do you.. Like him?"
"What? No."
"Sounds like he likes you though."
"No, maybe he did before but I highly doubt he does now, It was my fault anyway for changing him, he was sweet and kind before, now he's a monster."
"I'm so sorry all of this has happened to you, Ellie, I could help you find some friends."
"No, I'm fine. I should get back to Maths now anyway, thank you though."
"No, it's fine. You come here whenever you need it, promise."
I nodded my head and walked back but before I could the bell rang so I just walked to my next lesson.

I sat down in my seat with an empty chair next to me, Sophie used to sit there and we'd sit and make fun of Miss' accent. The door opened and one of the teachers from the reception came in with a boy next to her. He smiled at me and she pointed at the seat next to me, not Sophie's seat but the other empty space next to me he sat down and looked at me,
"Ellie, he's new would you mind showing him around?"
"Yeah, that's fine." I said smiling at him and he smiled back.
"Hi I'm Leondre."
"I'm Ellie, Welcome to Winterbourne International Academy or you can just call it The Ridings, Most people here do."
"Thanks, do you like it here."
"Kind of, I don't have friends but you'll get some you look like someone who has loads of friends."
"No, not really, I'll be your friend though." He smiled and for the first time in forever I actually felt like I had someone to talk to even though I had literally met him five seconds ago.
"You look like a nice person." He smiled again.
I smiled and then kept my head down, I was blushing..

Charlie's Point of view

I looked over to that new kid, He made her blush.. Lola just kept chewing her gum looking at me.
"Charlie?" She whisper, shouted.
"What?"
"Stop staring at those two over there."
"Sorry." I said
"Yeah, I hope he doesn't like her, I don't want her to have friends."
"Why not."
"Because if no one likes her then think about it this way, she moves schools then finds friends somewhere else, then she isn't my problem anymore then you don't have to deal with her either, if that boy becomes her friend she's stuck here."
"So what are you going to do?"
"Not me, we. We are going to prevent her becoming friends with him."
"I don't know?"
"You love me don't you, Charlie?"

"No."
