Flynn and I were sat in the cafeteria, eating our lunch. Well...Flynn was eating anyway. I was just poking my food around with my plastic fork.
Flynn noticed me and sighed. "Okay, what's wrong?"
"N-nothing's wrong." I stuttered. My friend stared at me blankly.
"Okay!" I buried my head into my hands. "You know I broke up with Astrid? I'm regretting it now...how am I supposed to win her back?"
"Well," he swallowed down some food, "you could always sing to her?"
Flynn shrugged, "I don't know, I'm not very good with girls."
I just nodded before glancing at the table on the opposite side of the cafeteria.
It had Astrid and Jay seated at it. I saw Astrid laughing so hard that she was going red. I glared at Jay as we waved his arms around, joking around.
I got up and started to walk over to their table.

Suddenly, I heard my name being mentioned so I quickly ducked around a corner.
I peered over, listening to Astrid and Jay's conversation.
"So," Astrid began, "what do you think of Harry?" Jay frowned at the mention of my name.
My eyes narrowed.
"Well, if you mean an opinion, I guess he's...a...moron."
That made my blood boil. Who is he to call me a moron?
"Why?" Astrid asked.
"Because you treats you like shit! Doesn't he piss you off?" Jay hissed.
The animal inside of me suddenly bolted up and began roaring in anger, throwing itself repeatedly at the cage it was trapped in.
"You don't understand..." Astrid mumbled.
The bell rang and everyone left the cafeteria except me,Flynn, Astrid and Jay.
I tried to calm myself down...It didn't work.
The animal broke out the cage and took over. But I was surprised when I stayed in my human form.
I stormed over to their table as they stood up. I was breathing deeply, gods I was so angry!
Jay noticed and widened his eyes.
"You still think I'm a moron?!" I yelled.
"HARRY!" Astrid screamed.
Without thinking, I clenched my fists and punched Jay on his nose. I heard a crunch as he stumbled to the floor.
I stood over him and began to repeatedly punch him on his face and body. Luckily he wasn't able to block all of them.
"HARRY!!" Astrid cried. I ignored her.
I threw one were punch at Jay before picking him up and forcing him against the wall.
His cheeks were red and blood was dripping down his nose.
"This is why you shouldn't be with him Astrid! He attacks people for no reason!" He growled.
I glared at him.
"HARRY!" Astrid screeched. I finally looked at her, anger and annoyance clearly written all over my face.
But my expression softened when I saw her face.
Her blue amazing eyes were blood shot, tears streaming down her face.
I lowered my fist but my other hand still held Jay against the wall.
"Please."she whispered, "Let. Him. Go."
When I clenched my hand tighter on his jacket, she walked over and stood in between Jay and I. Tears were still streaming down her cheeks.
She looked up at me and cupped my face with her hands. My eyes widened. The animal stopped roaring...but began whining...in sadness.
I mumbled an indescribable sound...it sounded like a whine. A very quiet one at that.
Astrid stroked my cheeks slowly and, as soon as I loosened my grip, Jay sprinted away to fifth lesson.
I nearly sprinted after him but Astrid held my face in her hands.
She kept them their until she knew I was calm.
I had leaned into her hand when I calmed down. I curled my hands around her waist, sobbing into her shoulder.
"I'm sorry...for everything. For breaking up with you...to hurting you. P-please...t-t-take me back."
Astrid pulled away and wiped the tears from my face.
"Of course I will," she smiled sadly.
She placed her lips on mine. This kiss wasn't just filled with passion, but with love, acception and many other emotions that I could never describe.
After a few minutes, we returned to hugging. I had a tight grip around her waist while she had one around my neck. I had buried my head in her neck, still sobbing quietly.
One thing was for sure, I never wanted to leave her again.
End of chapter! Hope you liked it! Not much to say...so...until next time...
