**RACHEL'S P.O.V**

Their faces suddenly froze. What was going on?

'Hey,' a familiar voice said softly behind me. I turned round to see Louis, Harry and Niall. Ohh, so that's why they froze... this will be fun.

'Hey,' i spoke back. He took the seat next to me, and smiled. 'You remember Harry and Niall,' he turned to face them. 'Hi,' i smiled at them and gave a small wave, they did the same back. I turned back to face the table. 'This is Ebony, and that's Amy,' they politely waved back, i could tell they were trying not to scream, oh dear.

Harry took the seat next to Louis, and Niall took the one next to Amy. We all got talking and clicked as a group instantly, at first Amy and Ebony were shy, but the soon started to show their true colours, that made me happiest. Amy and Niall really started to hit it off, she always liked the ones with an accent. Ebony and Harry kept looking at eachother, whenever Ebony and his eyes met, she would blush and turn to face the floor, what a cutie.

Me and Louis got on really well, i had learn't so much about him. He only lived round the corner from me, about 3 minutes away, he had come from Doncaster from up north, but moved because he lived in a rough area, suprisingly though, he didn't come down with his parents, he came down wit his 19 year old brother, Liam.

The main thing that made them move was a massive arguement. Louis and Liam's parent had an arguement with Harry's, something he wouldn't tell me, they had all run downstairs and said that if one more arguement occured, they would leave. They started shouting an hour later, they packed up their bags an left within 3 hours and drove all the way to London.

Their parents appologised and left them to get on with their lives, but chipped in enough so they could live. I started to feel a little sorry for him, and gave him a weak smile. He said it was okay, but i could see inside it was a little hard for him to tell me, something had left a deep mark in his heart.

'Hello,' I recognised that voice, i turned round to see Chelsea stading there with her little clique, looking at Louis. That girl was vile. She was popular, but that was only because everyone was scared of her, scared of what she'd do to them, how she would humiliate them. She was tall, blonde and gorgeous, she would be so much nicer if she didn't mentally attack veryone she saw.

'Oh er, hi' Louis said, with a smile on his face. He was going to fall for her, i knew it, almost all the boys did, well, except the ones that she hurt with her vicious lies. 'I wanted to welcome you to our school.' She was speaking creepy nice, she obviously wanted to get with him, but she would just hurt him, hurt him like all the others. 'Um, thanks' He continued smiling.

'Rachel, sweetie,' whoah, what did she just call me? 'Do you mind if we take your seats, so we can talk to the boys, privately?' Her two little 'friends' walked around the table, behind Amy and Ebony, they were about to get up when i shot them a look, telling them to keep seated, no way was i moving for her, if the boys wanted to go with her, i didn't mind, but i wasn't moving.

I looked back at her. 'No, sorry.' I turned away from her and faced towards the others again, i could feel everyone staring at me, the pressure was enormous. 

'What?' He voice turned ice cold. Here we go, no backing out now..

'You heard me, i'm.. we're not moving,' i turned back to face her, looking her straight in the eyes. I could see the fire building inside them. She let out a chuckle. I had a quick glance at each other the boys, they looked really nerved, even Harry, who was so confident when he came over earlier. I turned my eyes quickly to face her again.

'I wasn't asking, i was telling you, now move.' I just stared at her, whatever she was going to do to me, i don't care, i was not afraid of her.

'Sorry, err...' Someone interrupted the silence. It was Louis. 'Thanks for coming over and everything, it was really nice, but do you err, mind if we.. got back to talking?' He looked at everyone individually, but at me the longest. He had stood up to her, that means.. he didn't like her.

Her face turned from no expression to complete horror. Then a smile crept on her face. She looked at each of the boys, for about a second each. 'Oh boys, you know, you could do way better than these nerds, maybe if you just came with u.....' she got interrupted. 'We're good, thanks.' Niall spoke up. What was even going on? No one had ever stood up for us before...ever.

Her eyebrows narrowed when she realised he was being serious, her smile dropped.

'What do you mean, your good? Them, over us? Ha don't make me laugh, see these, these pathetic excuses for girls here? They're horse freaks. Fugly horse freaks. See us? We're models, rich models, your turning us down for, them? Of all people, THEM?'

'I guess it seems that way.' Louis just sat there, looking up at her. His face was experessionless. 'Atleast they don't slap make-up on their face to try and look pretty, they're gorgeous, just the way they are.' A small smile crept on mine, and the other girls' faces. How cute was he? I wanted to laugh, so hard, did he basically just call her.. a slut? HAHA.

'Whatever. Enjoy... them.' She snickered and off she went, with her little puppy dogs behind her. Well that was just an awkward situation.

Me, Harry and Louis turned back to face everyone. Me, Amy and Ebony started at the table, the boys looked at eachother in disbelief. They probably weren't used to things like that happening to anyone, let alone a small group of girls, they'd probably experienced something like that, but not quiet as extreme. It had been happening for ages, years even.

For some reason, she didn't like us, especially me, she decided to pick on me, all the time, start rumors, she realised it wasn't bothering me, and had started now started picking on Amy and Ebony, they were the weaker ones, she tried to do it when i wasn't around, but i always managed to reach her, and stop her before she did.

I felt a tear come to my eye, i felt it slowly drip down my cheek. What was wrong with me? I was usually so strong, i never cried at anything like that, never at what anybody said. Maybe it was because finally, we had someone with us, finally, someone cared about us.

I felt a warm arm wrap around my shoulder and pull me close. I looked up to find Louis, staring down at me. I was in his arms. He made me feel safe. I gave him a smile and pulled myself back up into my seat again and sat up straight. Everyone was looking at me.

'Sorry, i don't usually get upset about these things, i think its just..' I was struggling to get my words out, why? 'It's alright, love, shes just a bitch, your beautiful, you all beautiful, shes just jealous.' He was smiling warmly at me, a caring smile, everyone else was smiling too, he was such a sweetheart.

'Thank you, so much, no one has ever done that for us before,' i felt like crying again, but this time, for happiness, i managed to refrain myself.

'Don't worry, it's what friends are for right?' He pulled me into a tight hug, and i hugged him back, everyone looked up now, smiling, happy smiles, we all started to laugh. We had found ourselves some new friends.
