Ethan's pov: 

I collapsed on my  bed as soon as I got home.  Lola  charged into my room seconds later.

"get out Lola,  am trying to sleep". I said pulling the covers over my head but She pulled them back.

"no, we need to talk about Sam." she said completely taking off the comforter. I groaned.

"  I don't want to talk about her. I played my role, I told her to run from him. What more do you want me to do for her?"  I said and she was quite for a while before she finally spoke up.

"protect her"

"what?"

"protect her. Aiden is scared of you. He wouldn't dare touch her if he knows that she has you behind her."

" am not going back to the life I lived two years ago" I said quietly.

"no one is asking you to,  you don't need to be a bully just to protect someone."

"hey,  am not even sure of where I stand either. I might be treated as a new student too, you know."

"yeah right, you already have your own table in less than two weeks, who exactly is going to bully you. Aiden? Thelma? Or Aiden's  boys ?,  come on we both know you'd beat them all up with you hands tied behind your back. Come on,  she needs your help".  She said and I ran a hand through my hair.

"Lola, do you know how difficult it is to protect someone who doesn't want to be protected?"

  " well maybe if you hadn't been such a prick when we first met her,  she wouldn't have issues listening to you".

"hey,  I already said I was  sorry"

"whatever, I just go to her house and talk to her for a bit." she said.

"come on, I'll drop you off. "I said picking up my keys.

" why would I need a car to go there" she said pointing at the room by the window of the next house. I moved over to the window and although I couldn't see much, I managed to spot her uniform. It was neatly hanged on the wall next to her table. Her room wasn't all that fancy,  but it was neat. I slowly turned my head to Lola.

"she lives here?"

"yep"

"how's that possible.  She said she wasn't rich.  This type of house cannot belong to a person who isn't rich".

" I was surprised too,  but I decided not to question her about it".

"she probably stays with someone. Maybe an aunt or something".

"nope,  it's just her and her brother William".

"Lolalita Annabelle Murphy, get down here this minute" mum screamed from downstairs.

"ow-oh she probably found out I broke her perfume bottle.  I guess I'll talk to Sam later." she said and left. I turned back to my window.  I cannot believe I've lived with Sam next door for almost a week and I didn't realize.  Well I should say hello right. It is the polite thing to do.  

Samantha's pov:

  I stayed outside with william's piano all day  playing and singing  different songs. I was currently playing the tune to I love you by trek when I felt someone seat beside. My best guess was William so I just played and sang on.  I stopped playing when whoever it was started to sing along. William might be terrific with the piano,  but he was a terrible singer.  The voice I just heard was definitely the voice of an angel. I half screamed when I opened my eyes.
