Chapter 3

EZRA’S POV

“Are you okay” I didn’t know what to say. I must have sat on that bench under the big oak tree hidden from the rain for an hour at least, thinking, but why is she crying? Why is she out here? Did I do something?  

I knelt behind her not thinking I put my arms around her and pulled her close to me, I didn’t know what else to do. She looked so drained and cold and upset. I grabbed my coat from my bag and put it around her. She drifted to sleep as I lifted her into my arms. I walked to her car grabbing her keys out of her bag that I took from Caroline earlier.

I pulled into her drive way and went to the passenger side to get her out. I turned around and with a jump I noticed Alex had come out and was standing behind me.

“What do you think you’re doing with her” Alex Roared.

“Umm well she, umm” I didn’t know what to say the incident with Alex earlier wouldn’t help me now.

He took her out of my arms just as his mum came bolting out the front door.

“Omg what happened”

“Well, umm, we kind of ran into each other earlier and she bolted on me. I found her on the oval in the rain so I brought her home.”

“Why are you such a liar?”

“Alex get inside now and take your sister, I will talk to you later.”

His mum apologized and took me to my car at school. I never really noticed how nice she was, even though our parents are best friends. I sat in my car for a while just thinking about what happened today. I lost track of time and when I finally came back to realisation I noticed it had gone from 3:00 to 7:00.

NICOLES POV

I felt like I just woke up from the nightmare of the century.

After a shower and homework I headed to bed.

It was about 6:00 in the morning and all I could hear is my brother being his usual self getting ready for school. I got up because of cause I couldn’t sleep anymore and decided to go get ready myself and head to school. I suppose it is a good thing that way I can watch my brother and make sure he doesn’t get into too many fights this morning after yesterday I don’t think his nose can cop many more punches.

“Morning sis, wow wait why are you up so early” my brother shocked as ever left his massive mouth hanging wide open in a gasp.

“I just am, who punched you yesterday” I shot him back another question just to get off the topic of sleep.

“I told mum yesterday when you were there, I don’t know”

“Bullshit bro I know one you’re lying”

“I don’t want to tell you alright” He stormed off to the kitchen and I just left it for now.

I got in the shower and rushed on some makeup, still looks good to me; I brushed my long brown hair and left it to get changed. After half an hour of getting changed eating breakfast and finishing off the dishes I headed t o school it was at least 6:45 when I left.

It was an alright morning wasn’t cold or anything so I wore my white shorts and a crop top.

I reached the gates of school just in time to see Ezra and Alex talking, well wasn’t talking as such more like shoving and yelling, so sisterly of me I walked over there.

“Sis why are you here so early”

“Obviously looking out for you, what is going on here?”

“Hey Nicole, I like your hair out it looks nice”

As shocked as I was to hear that coming from Mr Popular I was more worried about my Brother at this very moment.  

“Thanks, bro seriously why do you pick fights everywhere you go it’s ridiculous.”

“I AM NOT GETTING INTO A FIGHT THIS DICK BROKE MY NOSE”

My mouth shot open and my eyes were as wide as ever, I was shocked and hurt. I walked back and ran into Caroline on my way, I turn and pulled her to first period.
