Preciously on Facade,

"Harry stop." I blocked the door.

"Move, Helena."

I know him as much as he knows me. All he's thinking right now is revenge.

"No. Please I'm begging you, don't hunt him tonight. In fact, just sleep it off. I might be a little crushed but I'm still okay."

Harry sighed. "Fine. Just for you, Helena." He turned and went up his room.

I sighed. Alex might be safe today but I can't be sure for tomorrow.

*****

Two things that I have to do today. One, make sure Alex is safe. Two, not to talk to Alex.

Well, the second task is pretty useless since Alex is giving me the silent treatment.

"Are you two giving each other the silent treatment?" Danny questioned the obvious.

Instead of sitting beside me as usual, Alex sat beside the window and listen to what Mr Brooke is teaching right now.

So Danny took Alex's place and the guy that usually sits beside the window is now sitting at Danny's.

Alex is obviously mad at me. I don't know why but this is his fault. He's probably using me as a scapegoat to be mad.

I shrugged. "I guess."

"He may be getting great results in academics, but he's an idiot." Danny whispered.

"He's an idiot for coming to school." I whispered.

"Why?"

"Your boyfriend almost went out to kill him last night. I'm not sure if I can protect him today." I whispered.

The moment the bell rang, we went out of class for lunch. Alex is one of the last student that went out of class.

"You don't have to wait for me, Danny." Alex said calmly.

"Helena waited too." Danny pointed to me.

"Well let's go, I'm starving." Alex patted his stomach.

So he's treating me like I'm invisible. My heart broke. So this is it? Treating me like I'm invisible.

"I'm going first." I mumbled, taking quick steps to the cafeteria. I'm pretty sure I would cry again if I stayed there any longer or talk in a normal voice.

The first person I saw in the cafeteria is Harry. I smiled at him but he didn't seem to buy it. Harry stood up and took long strides towards me, meeting me halfway and held my hands.

"Did he hurt you again?" Harry asked me with a concerned look.

I shook my head. "I'm fine." My voice sounded really soft.

Harry removed my hand and walked to somewhere behind me. I turned around. Danny and Alex is in the cafeteria. They stopped walking. Harry walked towards them and punched Alex on the jaw.

"The fuck is wrong with you?" Alex glared at Harry.

"I've warned you not to mess with my sister." Harry said venomously and landed another punch on Alex's jaw.

"And you know better than to mess with me." Alex hissed and punched Harry's guts before punching his jaw, making a cracking sound.

That was when hell broke loose.

Harry and Alex began throwing punches at each other. Instead of breaking up the fight, students crowd around us, chanting for Alex and Harry like at Alex's match.
