Invisible

Chapter 2

Nicoles pov
*In science class*
I sat down in the back of the class with Dylan. "Hey Nicole," Dylan said biting his lip. Ooh I am liking this already. "Hey Dylan," I winked and slowly sat down. Damn I'm the biggest flirt I know. I saw Dylan tense up and I knew I was already beginning to wrap him around my finger. The teacher started explaining shit about the project but I was lost in Dylans eyes. Once the teacher finished yapping, I focused on the project. "What. Is this a fake baby doll thing?" I asked lifting up a small baby doll. "I guess. All we have to do is not damage it and we get am A+ so this should be easy," he said. The bell rang and everyone gathered their things to head off to lunch. On my way out, Dylan softly pulled my back, I span around, coming centimeters away from his face. My cheeks were burning. "Wanna come over later to work on our project?" Dylan said, biting his lip again and winking. "Uh.. yeah-yeah okay." I said. He pecked my nose and was off. "What just happened?" I muttured to myself.
Somers pov
I sat with Grayson and cringed at the small amphibian that lay limply infront of us. "Hey are you alright you look kinda pale," Grayson said, taking my hand. "No I'm fine- just dead things. Its creepy." I said. He handed me a tool. "Give it a try" he winked. I took the tool. My hand shaking intensely. "Here let me help." he said. He wrapped his arms around me and guided my hands. I turned around to look at him, and his soft eyes met mine. He bit his lip and I turned back around, trying to hide my pink cheeks. I took the time to look over at Maddie, who was laughing at Ethan wearing her glasses. Ugh I could totally see them together... WAIT. DOES MADDIE LIKE ETHAN? No... thats rediculous.. Maddie? An attraction to the school player? The one who is dating her infamous bully? No. Its impossible. But... Ive never seen her smile like that... she looks so pretty. If only she did that more often..
Maddies pov
I took a sharp turn to avoid confrontin her. I threw my tray away and went through the hallway into the bathroom. I knew she was following me, and I didnt want to make a scene in front of everyone in the cafeteria. I stopped to look at myself in the mirror and took a deep breathe. Ariana and her clique burst in, they were furious. Evil grins smug on their faces like plaster. "What do you want Ariana" I said, looking up at her. What? Shes taller than me.. "How was science class?" she asked, playing with the stray hair not in my bun. "We disected frogs.." I mumbled. "Yeah. And you looked like you were having fun flirting with my boyfriend." She snapped and pulled out tthe stray hair. I cringed. "Now. We can sleep with other peoples boyfriends, but no one messes with our guys." Ariana said and came at me slowly. She punched me and I landed with a thud. Her girls crowded around me and kicked me. With their heels. I tried to drown it out.. it hurt to much. I could still feel it. The lunch bell rung when they finally stopped. I blacked out before I could clean up.
Ethan's pov
I went into language arts class only to notice that Maddie wasnt sitting with Nicole and Somer in their group. Curiousity getting the better of me, I sat with them. "Hey.. guys," I said. They exchanged confused looks. "Um.. hey Ethan.. did you need something?" Somer asked politely. "No.. I mean. How come Maddie 't with you guys?" I asked. "Oh... she got hurt shes in the nurs-" Somer was cut off by Nicole placing her hand over Somers mouth. "She felt sick and went home," Nicole said. "Oh..." I said. I walked to my table with Dylan and Grayson, who were in deep conversation. "Woahh what are you guys talking about," I chuckled. "Just.. a couple of girls." They replied. "Ohh, and uh, who are these girls?" I said, resting my chin on my hand. "Somer and Nicole," Dylan whispered so they wouldnt hear. "Not bad." I said. "But dude, you've been staring at Nicole for months. You are just now gonna makea move?" I said to Dylan who just kinda shrugged. "I invited her over today," he said. "Ooh get it," Grayson chuckled. "Oh yeah? What about you?" Dylan smirked. "Hey, I pulled a good one in science today" he said proudly. "Yeah. We were disecting frogs Grayson," I chuckled. "Yeah well what have you done?" Dylan asked me. "I am with Ariana, what do you mean?" I said. "Dude. We both know that Ariana is just a toy that is good looking and can make out with. You cant possibly like who she really is.. besides... remember being with that girl in science who never says a word?" Grayson reminded me. "What? I dont understand," I said. "You seemed legitimately happy working with her dude," Grayson said. "Look, even if I were to like her, Im still with Ariana," Ethan said. "You dont get it." Grayson said leaning closer to me and whispering "Ive never seen that girl so happy before, and we've gone to school with her since the second grade." Grayson said with a concerned look on his face. "And you dont know how bad Ariana really is... you dont know what happened today do you?" Dylan spoke up. "No... what happened?" I asked. "Ariana and her friends lit her up in the bathroom during lunch. Punched her down, circled and kicked her till she blacked out. Heard she was found by some freshman and and wad brought to the nurses office. Thats why she isnt here," Dylan replied with a tug at the collar of his shirt. "Is it true Grayson?" I stuttered. "Yeah. Its been going on," Grayson said. So Ariana has been bullying Maddie? I can't believe I've been so naive...
