Somewhere In Neverland

Four.

Arabella's P.O.V.

I got hit by a bunch of fries while walking to the only empty table left in the lunch room. It was that boy, from my chemistry and math class. He starts to apologize but then I see his eyes shoot down to my arm. Shit, I'm bleeding through my sweater. I quickly cover my arms and walk away towards my lonely table. His eyes never left me as I walked away and I'm praying to god he really didn't see anything.

I sit down a put my head down, sighing. I quickly snap my head up as I hear heels clicking my way. Shit, it's Taylor. I stiffen my body and don't look at her, hoping she will just pass by. Then I see she is with Jordan Cooper. Now I know I'm not getting a break.

I notice that boy is still watching me, until one of his friends smacks him on the back of the head and he turns around. Suddenly, I see him get up, walking hurriedly towards me. No, no. Please, just leave me alone. Then my vision is blocked by Taylor and Jordan. "Whatcha doing, slut?" Taylor snaps, grinning evilly. Jordan smirks, and then his eyes go cold. "Jordan hear, needs to speak with you. In the hallway. Now." Taylor commands. I knew too well to not even argue against and just get up, knowing what's coming my way.

"Hey, Arabella. Where you heading off to? I thought you were eating lunch with us today." Someone says, and all three of us turn around. It's the boy from my classes. What are you doing? I think to myself, my eyes telling him to just go away and leave. He just stands there stupidly, smiling. Idiot, I think and I grab my head, shaking it. "Arabella here has something to take care of, Alex." Taylor says, sweetly and I glare daggers into the back of her head.

"I'll uhm- be right back.." I say shakily, and turn around to follow Jordan into a secluded hallway.

Alex's P.O.V.

Arabella walks away, with some guy and this Taylor stays behind. I won't lie, I got worried because I don't know what this "business" was that she had to take care of. "Watch your back, Gaskarth. Talking to her can get you into a lot of trouble." Taylor says, snapping me back into reality. "If you haven't noticed, Taylor, I don't really care what other people think." I reply, coolly. She rolls her eyes, snorts and walks away. I turn back towards my table and shake my head for Jack to come over here. He does, quicker than I expected.

"Damn, Gaskarth, I didn't know you had a thing for blondes" Jack says, walking up to me with a wink. "Not now, Jack, something's wrong." I say, being completely serious. He notices this and tenses up, giving me a look that says let's go. I start walking towards the hallway that I saw Arabella and this guy sneak off to.

Arabella's P.O.V.

I slowly walk ahead of Jordan, making sure he's a good distance away from me. Finally, I feel him grab my arm and I wince in pain. He pushes me against a locker, and I smack my back on the handle and lose my breath, falling to the ground. "Listen, bitch. I see your arm. You're giving me what I want or everyone is going to know." He says, and pulls my sleeve up, quickly snapping a picture of me and my arm, still bleeding. I snap my head up at him. Stop it, Jordan. Fucking stop."

"Not until I get what I want, baby" he says, winking. I almost throw up and before you know it, he's pulling me up by my arm and squeezing the cut, breaking some scars open and making the new one bleed more. I started to feel dizzy and faint. "This is what whores like you get," he says, smiling with hate in his eyes.

"Leave her the fuck alone." I hear someone say, harshly. Jordan throws me back up against the locker and I smack my head on it, hard, making me dizzier than I was. Someone runs up to me, smelling of sweet cologne. "Don't worry princess, you'll be fine." I hear, before completely blacking out.
