****Kians pov ***
--- a few days later ---
Why do I keep messing up ?
I keep saying these things .
Mean things
But I don't mean them... Well all of them .
I keep giving her these mixed signals ... I don't like doing it but it keeps on happening .
Like the other day , she mentioned what happened at the party to James but she then denied it. Saying she was looking for attention .. She protected me from her brother ..
But why? All I've ever been to her is mean ... Since that day ....
Ugh wtf shake it off you asshole , think about that later ..
I shook my head and payed attention to the lesson .
Oh yeah I'm in my English class by the way ... Just day dreaming as always .
" lawley you there !? What's the answer ?"Ms .conlon Chuckled at my daily daydreaming .
" oh uhm ... "
I read the question on the whiteboard .
" Romeo thinks he loves Roseline but soon meets Juliet " I smirked .
" good good .. See everyone ... Even though he daydreams about god knows what is ears are still open.!"
everyone then laughs.
" yeah I'm awesome " I chuckled .
" so some say Kian " ms conlon says laughing ,everyone joins in and laughs again.
The bell suddenly rings.
I race to the door before Ms.Conlon can even say " no homework "
I rushed to my locker to grab my books when I whack into something hard and hear it fall to the ground .
I would usually walk on but I noticed it was Holly .
"..sorry " she mumbled and grabbed everything .
I stood on all her books so she couldn't pick them up .
" what kind of game are you playing ?" She groaned." Stop it "
Suddenly I bent down lifted my foot and picked up all the papers , nearly ordered them , grabbed her books and stood up .
" so you don't like the game of a gentleman lifting up your books ?" I smirked and handed them to her.
Shocked by my action she stuttered .
" oh I ehm .. Sorry .. Thanks for ordering my papers ..."
" no problem sorry for knocking you over .. You know I'm a tank " I winked at her, laughing .
She laughed a little and smiled .
" I gotta go " she ran off before I could even reply .

- outside -
So it was 3:30 Pm by the time I got out of school I was walking down the avenue with Brent and Cameron to the bus stop when I saw Holly walk by .
" hey " I mumbled as she walked past me .
" oh uhm hi " she said nervously and walked on she turned around and watched me for a second before moving onwards .
Why is she rushing ?
" holly?" I called .
She gave me a stern "no" look .
Weird...
"What is ?" Cameron asked .
I realised I had said it aloud .
" why is she rushing ?? "
" who?" Brent looked confused .
"Holly , duh!" I pointed my head at her .
" oh I don't know " Cameron shrugged .
"WAIT!" I yelled .
" do you guys mind ?"
" ehm nah " " no go ahead I guess " Brent and Cameron said .
"Holly ..." I ran beside her . She wouldn't look at me .
" what?" She hissed .
" wow slow down, what's up with you ?"
"N-nothing .." She moved her hair so I couldn't see her face .
" look at me holly "
" no "
" why?"
"Because ?"
"Because what?"
"IM HURT " she hit my arm and stood there with her head down .
I looked back at Cameron & Brent , they shrugged confused .
"What? How ?" I asked concerned .
"Doesn't matter " she sighed .
" yes it does "
"No..."
"It does to me ..."
"That's a lie "
"how?"
"It happened because of you .."
"What?" That's not possible .
"Because of what you said " she heavily breathed like she was going to cry .
She sat down on the grass .
I followed .
Straight away I saw a tear fall on her jeans then she looked at me ..
Never in my life had I felt so concerned .
Her eye was purple and blue , shut from the swelling , her face was red with a hand mark and her nose had little dry blood on it .
" What the FUCK HAPPENED?" I almost screamed .
"Nothing I'm fine " she whimpered .
"No no it's not okay WHO hurt you ? And WHY?"
I was getting a little mad you could say ...
"Stop yelling " she cried .
"Oh god I'm sorry I'm just so
Mad at whoever did this "
I grabbed her in my arms and she cried on my shoulders .
I squeezed her tightly .. Not to tight to hurt her more .
"Please tell me who it was .." I whispered .
"I .. I can't they said they'd do it "
"Do what ?"
"They'd hurt me more if anyone found out .. They'd use blackmail "
She cried hard .
"Who?"I whispered again.
"Just please not here " she cried gripping my shirt .
I helped her up and quickly texted the guys that I'm not spending the day with them .
This is more important ,not only because it's my Bestfriends sister ..
But someone is hurting her because of me .. And that scares me .
I want her to stop hurting but someone is hurting her still .
"Come to mine "
"What?" she pulled away .
" I mean to my house ... Not for anything weirdly sexual I'm not a freak .. It's just that my house is closer than yours is and I have a first aid kit ...
Don't worry if you get akward or don't feel safe with me I'll call your brother for him to come over . I promise "
I looked at her , she was really bad .. No amount of make-up will cover this up .
I want to help her
I need to help her
No one can hurt her like I did because it's something you can never regret ..
