I sat there on the ground waiting for him to hit me but nothing ever came. I opened my eyes after three minutes of waiting and wondering. When my eyes were finally open I saw a small blonde boy hitting on Zack, but why? How? Zack was much bigger and stronger than the blonde guy, I mean you could tell by just looking at them, he looked like eh was winning. What did I know about that anyways? I was always the person being hit never the person hitting. I caught a glimpse of the guys face and it was that Niall guy I had just seen in the park. Why was he there? Did he follow me? Did he want to hurt me too? I had many questions and no answers, but I wasn't going to worry about them at this point, the only person I was worried about was Niall. He was going to get hurt and it would be my fault. So I called the police and ran to see if his friends were still at the park. They of course weren't so I had to run back just to watch Zack being beat up and I couldn't handle it. Even though he hurts me I know he still loves me. I try to get away but if I really wanted to I'd honestly be gone. Wouldn't I? I'm not even sure about anything anymore.

Once the police showed up Niall was pulled off of Zack and we were all taken to separate spots to be questioned. Chris and I were standing in a parking spot in the road, Zack and whoever he was talking to were on the far end of the side walk facing the back of me, and Niall and the cop who was asking him questions were standing near the spot where I was hit. Looking that way made me touch my cheek and it burnt when my fingers went in the cut. The cop and I were close so I didn't have to feel shy around him. I could feel Zack's eyes starring hole in the back of my head. I was barely answering the police officer, Chris's, questions. It was hard! I didn't want Zack to get in trouble but I didn't want Niall to either, he was just sticking up for me!

"Who hit who first?"

"The blonde kid, Niall, hit Zack first"

"Do you have any idea why he hit him?

"Zack isn't the nicest person, he was threatening m, I don't even know him and he stuck up for me."

"What do you mean he threatened you? Is the wound on your face from Zack?"

*I stared at the ground*

"SAM!" Everyone was looking at us now. "Is that from Zack? You know I can take him in for questioning if he hurt you he can get in a lot of trouble."

"He did but please don't do anything! I'm begging you as a friend, not as a cop. I'm going to take care of this I promise! Please don't." I pleaded with begging eyes hoping he could see the sorrow in them. "Please," I whispered. I could feel me starting to cry again. Chris lifted my chin and told me he promised but I had to do something about it soon or he would.

I was told I was all done with questioning so I started to walk back toward my aunts house. While starring at my feet I noticed my shoe was untied so I walked off of the walkway so wasn't in the way just in case someone walks by. The grass was itchy on my knees and the wind was outing knots in my hair. I was a pair of white Supras with jeans somewhat tucked into them. My eyes ran up his leg and to his face and who was it? Niall. Why was he following me? What do I need to do to get him to stop? I stood up, my eyes locked on his, he smiled. His teeth were perfect and he had the cutest smile. I tried not to stare but I mean who wouldn't want to?

"Is there a reason you followed me?" I tried to say in a disgusted voice but I was smiling the whole time.

"I just wanted to see if you were okay. He hit you pretty hard." He ended with a disgusted look.

"I'm fine. I'm kind of used to it now." I quickly shut my mouth knowing I shouldn't have said what I did.

"You mean he has his you before?"

"I don't even know who you are, you are acting like we have known you forever! Just stay out of this, Okay?"

*I'm pretty sure I heard his jaw hit his chest*

I turned around once again to face my aunts house and walked in. Everyone was starring at me, I didn't like it. Benji came over to me to give me a hug and give me a big long speech about how he will never leave me alone again.

"Sam are you okay?" He brushed my gash with his finger. "I'm fine," I replied with hesitation. " He carried on with his speech while we walked upstairs to wash off my face and get the blood off my shirt. When he was done with his speech he collapsed in a chair near to where I was cleaning up. I looked down at my feet and he knew I felt bad I could feel it in the air. Benji shoved his face into his hands and I could hear whimpering. I made me want to cry. He got up out of his chair and put his arm around me and asked what I was going to tell our parents. I had to think about it for awhile but I came out with a solution. I quickly ran it by Benji and started down the stairs. Oh gosh I hope this works

MY parents were the first people to approach me after I walked down the stairs.

"What did you do to your face?" my dad asked with a chuckle

*Thank god they weren't going to take this too seriously*

"I tripped and fell coming back down the hill after I went to the bathroom at the park." I nervously lied

"Its just like clumsy Sam to do!" and with that they wondered off to talk to other family members

Phew! It makes me feel sick to my stomach lying to my parents, but it had to be done. If I told the truth they would just think I'm lying or they'd know the truth and never let me see Zack again. Nothing can ever go the way I want it to. I asked my parents if I could go home. They said I could and so I left without another thought.
