Thursaday

I seen him! I seen the one that stuck up for Niall and me. He noticed me too. I gave him a shy smile when he looked my way. I haven't had any classes with him yet, but I may have lunch with him.

As I assumed, when lunch came he was at a table by himself. My feet made the move before my mind could even register what was going on. I was heading his way. He looked up from his Apple and sat as I brought my water and bag towards his table. I sat down, heart pounding, if you can't tell I'm not good at making friends. I looked up from my lap and chocked out "h-hi" his eyes softened " hey" he smiled. His voice came out so smooth and silky like velvet. He put his right hand out.

"Chaz, it's nice to finally meet you.." I glared at his hand I took it into my own and shook.

"I'm Lux." I was the first to let go. He took a bite of his Apple, making a satisfying crunch echo from his mouth. "Thank you.." I squeaked. I sound pitiful. He smiled and chuckled, "no problem, he seemed to deserve it." I smiled and looked into his eyes. They were dark. I couldn't see a hint of design in them. They were very compelling and I wanted to tilt his head up in the light to see if there were any color.

"Hey Lux" I looked to see Niall coming towards us. He came up to the front of the table and sat his tray down. " Niall, pleasure to meet you, thanks for sticking up for us." He chirped.

"Chaz, and anytime Niall." I looked at Nialls tray, there was so much food. It looked good too, French fries, cheeseburger, pudding....

"Lux... Are you hungry, why didn't you et anything?" Niall said stuffing his face. I looked up at him, cheeks burning redder then chaz'es apple.

"Uh.., no. No. I was just daydreaming." I stuttered. Looking at the two boys. Chaz looked at me. Like he was reading me, his jaw slowly moving concentrating on my face. He swallowed the food and looked at me with raised eye brows.

" you sure, if you don't want to wait in the line, I will."  He offered.

"No, it's cool. I'm not hungry." On cue my stomach growled. Fuck. Chaz mouth opened, He knew I was lying, My stomach dropped.

"You guys wanna do something after school?" Niall asked breaking our stare. I was glad Niall was oblivious to what just happened. I looked at Niall, all happy taking huge bites of his burger.

" Yea sure sounds fun." Chaz said not taking his  eyes off of me. I nodded at Niall, I was at a loss of words. I looked down at my hands on my lap, they were shaking. The bell rang for 7th period.

The last class came, and I had the last two with Niall and Chaz. It would have been fun, if I wouldn't have been so distant because of what happened at lunch. But when 9th period came, Niall wasn't in my class...our class. I sat down on the back. Not feeling like participating today. Chaz came and sat down next to me. I didn't dare to look at him, but I can feel his eyes burning into my skull.

"Look at me." He demanded softly. How could I let this happen. How could you let this happen. My demands were screaming at me. I looked at him. His eyebrows furrowed and jaw clenched. I looked at his face, how well his jaw was etched, and his cheekbones were so defined. His dark eyes lured me in.

"Why?" He asked. Softening his harsh glare, why was he so concerned? I bit my lip, not knowing how to answer. No one ever asked me why, or how come? They didn't care, my parents didn't care. No one ever cared, so why does it matter. I used to do it for attention, now... Now I just can't stop. I did it because my parents never cared about me. So I thought if I stopped eating they would be concerned. But they never were. I tried eating after I noticed they would never worry about me, but it didn't feel the same. I felt ucky, and it mad me feel ugly. So I stopped, only eating enough to get me through the day.

"Why does it matter." I simply stated back. He looked at me shocked. Not knowing what to say. I looked away, not looking back towards him for the rest of the class. Even though I new he couldn't take his eyes of of me.

After school, Niall took us to a path that led to train tracks. It was so beautiful, we were surrounded by woods. I couldn't help the smile that grew on my face. I love the outdoors, Niall didn't go in the tracks. He couldn't which made me really sad, so he stayed down on the path right by them. He looked up at me with a huge smile, my frown turned into a huge smile. I laughed. I love Niall, he doesn't ever let anything get him down, no matter the circumstances. I looked back at Chaz behind me trying to balance in the beams of the metal track. He looked up at me, he smiled, and so did I. He ran up to me and slung his arm around my shoulder, still on the beams. We were latterly in the middle of nowhere.

"Niall, how did you find this place! It's amazing!" Chaz laughed smile bigger then ever. Niall looked up at us.

" I come here to yell."He simply stated, "whenever I'm overwhelmed I yell at the world." He looked up at the cloudy sky.

"Fuck you Noah!" Niall screamed and laughed, his hand went through his died blonde hair. I giggled. I looked down at my combat boots and Chaz'es high top vans. He had them on with his outfit from today. My long necklace was chattering every time i took a step, and my messy long hair was laying over my shoulders, under Chaz'es arm. I had in pale skinnies with a white shirt and my green army colored jacket. Chaz had on a low cut black shirt with his black jeans.. Of course. He had on a long necklace too, it was tucked into his shirt so I don't know what was at the end of it.

Niall had on his straight legged jeans on and a band shirt with his whit air forces on. We are all so different. I looked at Chaz'es hand on my shoulder, his knuckles were still healing a bit, and he had many rings them. I took his hand from off my shoulder and rubbed my fingers over the wound. "Does it hurt?" I asked looking up into his eyes. He took his hand from mine and pulled at my wrist pulling up my jacket. My heart dropped.

"Do they hurt?" He whispered. Looking up from my healing wounds. I don't know what to say, I wanted to cry.

"No, just itch." I nervous laugh came out. I pulled my hand form his, only for him to take it back and lace our fingers together. I looked up at him. He smiled at me. He didn't mind, he didn't think I was crazy? He squeezed my hand and screamed,

" fuck you!" Niall looked up and laughed. Chaz looked down at him with a smile on his face.

"Who's that for?" Niall asked curiously. Chaz only surged and kept walking, with my hand in his.
