Protector

Chapter 1

I wake up to the smell of coffee. The scent fills the house and I can't help but get up. I walk downstairs and find my mom,"You ready for your first day?" I shyly nod. I'm scared because it's a new school and I don't have any friends here... My mom sees that I'm not fully excited about the first day and says,"It's okay, You're beautiful and by tomorrow everyone will want to be your friend." She half smiles and takes another sip of her drink.

I nod then walk upstairs to get ready. I open my closet to still fresh scent of boxes. I open one box to fine some of my clothes. "This will have to do." I say quietly to myself. I slip on the jeggings and purple blouse. I walk into the bathroom and open my makeup box. I put on lot of powder to cover up blemishes...then some black eye liner and a bit if mascara. I smile at myself in the mirror for the great job I did with making myself look pleasant.

I run down the stairs and give my mom a tight hug and a kiss goodbye. I sprint out the door and walk on a gravel path to my new school.

When I get to the entrance, I walk through the large doors and get stares from everyone... People just shrug me off and go on about their day.

I walk to the office to get my schedule. Once I get it I read to see who my first class is. E-6 Math. I walk around the whole school and I can't find it. I walk around a corner and bump into someone.

"shit" I mutter to myself picking up my things. When I stand up my eyes meet beautiful green eyes. "I'm terribly sorry about that." The tall boy that stands before me says. he has an English accent and curly hair. I notice he has piercings and tattoos. Not really my type.

"No it's fine," I avoid his eyes and shrug it off. I don't look him in the eyes again.

When I start to walk away, he stops me and says,"What's your name, Babe?" I turn around and say softly,"Bella." The bell rings...He nods and says,"See you around Bella." He winks and walks away.

What was that about.... I finally get to my math class and eyes are all attached to me... I take my seat quickly. When I sit down the boy next to me, I notice he is staring. "Hey, Are you new?" I look over at him. He's rather cute. With blonde hair pushed to the side and his teeth are alomst perfect. I could tell that he knew I was staring at him. I smile then nod.

He gives me a smile back. "Uh, Cool.... What's your name?"

"Bella, What's yours?"

"William, Nice to meet you Bella."

I smile and look away. The teacher begins her class. "Hello everyone, I'm Miss. Burton. I'm gonna take attendance.

Once she takes attendance, for the rest of the class we just got to talk with our neighbors. Once the class is almost over me and William exchange numbers.

When I finally got out of the long, boring class. I go to English next. When I come to the class everyone is sitting down. I notice the guy I met earlier, the tall one. But every seat around him Is empty. All the other seats are full. When I am walking over to sit by him, Everyone's eyes follow me. I sit next to him and I am given glares and hear a few gasps.

When the class starts the boy leans over to me and says softly,"Hey Bella." His words shiver down my spine and I just look at him with a confused look. After a couple minutes of silence I manage to ask,"Uh whats your name?" He smirks and says,"Harry." I nod and look away.

My phone buzzes in my pocket. I secretly open it hiding it from the teacher, its from William.

From William: Why are you sitting next to Harry??

I scan over the classroom to meet Williams eyes. He has a worried expression on his face.

To William: I would've sat by you but there were no seats!

From William: that's not what I mean....

To William: then what do you mean?

From William: I'll talk to you later at lunch about it.

I look at the texts then look over at Harry to see him watching me. He asks, "Can I see that?"

He takes my phone without me giving him an answer. My ears gets hot. I'm nervous what if he sees the texts. He's hands me back my phone and I ask him."What did you do?"

He says quietly."I just put my number in your phone, Babe. Chill." He smiles than winks at me. I scoff and look away.

After the class is over I go to two more classes. I didn't have William or Harry in either of them but I met a girl named Mattie in P.E. she's really nice. When I start walking to lunch I meet up with William. "Hey" I say.

"Hey." He says with a smile. We walk over to a table and I say,"So... Whats up with Harry?" He looks around to make sure no one is watching. Then he takes a big gulp... Man, He looks scared like shit. Then he says quickly,

"He used to drink underage all the time. He'd always get in bar fights and that's pretty much what he does. He beats up a lot of guys just if they annoyed him. And if he likes a girl, He likes a girl... So that means if anyone tries to flirt with her he will beat them up. Please just stay away from him, I don't want you getting hurt..."

If what he's saying is true then does that mean Harry likes me? Is that why William's scared? Because he's talking to me. " My facial expression changes and I nod.

"Am I that girl?"

He slowly nods... Then I say "Don't worry, I'll stay far away from him." William smiles. I give him an assuring nod back. 

I look over Williams shoulder and two tables down I see Harry. My heart pumps faster. He glares at me with no emotion. He looks down at his food then looks back at me with a cold stare. A stare that sends shivers down my spine.
