Tears were still rolling down her eyes when Alex brought her infront of the library, where it was all quiet. Giving her hand, that he had been holding on to the entire time, a slight squeeze, he let it go.
He just gave her a glance and without a word, he entered the library. Not knowing what else to do, Amber followed him in, not without hesitating for a second.
She saw him sitting on the same spot they last sat at and placed herself beside him. He handed her a book and she realized it was the same one she had started reading up in front of him. She looked at him in confusion as to where he got it from.

He just said, "It dropped onto the floor when you threw your bag in your locker," and then looked away, taking out another book for himself.
Amber stared at the book for a few moments before finally breaking the silence with a "Thank you," that was barely audible, but enough for Alex to hear it.
"Thank you for everything, Alex," she said.
He took a glance at her and just nodded his head in acknowledgement before they went back to reading.

Zara entered the school to find the hallways in chaos. She heard people whispering and take Amber's name and that confused her. When she arrived in front of her locker, there were papers strewn all over the place and her eyes widened.
"What the-"
"What the heck happened here!" said a voice who Zara recognized to be of Grace.
"Look at this!" Grace had the same reaction as Zara did and the minute they understood the situation, they both knew Amber would never do these things.
That's when they heard her voice, all the way from the cafeteria, which was not far away.
And she was screaming. Without wasting a second, they ran towards the cafeteria, and when they entered, the only thing they saw was the guy with the headphones that they did not know the name of, appear infront of Amber and take her away.
Then the cafeteria was once again in chaos and among all the commotion, Zara's eyes focused on the one and only Harry Styles, standing behind Louis and laughing away.
And Zara's anger reached its boundary.
----------------------
"No, it was all Louis and his stupid friends. I don't think Harry was involved," said Amber, whispering to her friends, while playing with her food on the lunch table, barely eating anything.
Zara just nodded, her anger somewhat decreasing. She didn't know what she'd have done to Harry otherwise.

Grace was just getting her swimsuit from the car in the parking lot when she noticed a familiar figure, too familiar, standing at some corner in the lot, muttering quietly with his hand on some other guy's shoulder as they looked like they were deep in some discussion.

Grace narrowed her eyes as she tried to get a better look from such a distance, before her eyes widened as she saw Zayn give the other guy a packet, filled with some powedery white stuff before the brown haired stranger quickly pulled it away and shoved it in his back pocket.

The stranger muttered some words to Zayn, who nodded a few times as the stranger adjusted his cap and lowered it quite a bit more before turning around and walking away.

Zayn then took a good look around, quickly checking to see if someone was eyeing them when suddenly his eyes spotted Grace, who's eyes widened when she saw him looking directly at her.

It took her a minute to get out the shock she was in as Grace, becoming nervous, made a dash for the school building entrance, hoping that Zayn wasn't following her, or better, didn't notice her there.
