***CHRISTI'S P.O.V***

I stood for a moment in disbelief before finally finding the courage to speak.

"Jake? Libby? How could you do this to me ... I..." I couldn't finish before tears came rolling down my cheeks. I had just caught my BEST friend shagging my BOY friend.

Ex Boyfriend.

I wasted no time and headed towards the cafe, racing to get to Eleanor.

"What's wrong?" She asked standing up from the table with Harry, Louis and a couple if other new kids.

"He... And Libby..." I stuttered. "I caught him banging Lib in the cleaning office. He cheated on me!" I sobbed placing my self on a chair, throwing my head in my hands.

I know El, Harry and Louis were comforting me but I couldn't take it in an became really dizzy. I ran to the car park, being followed by someone, not caring who, before I passed out near my car, dizziness consuming me and I could feel myself fall into someone's arms but Im not sure who's.

My eyes fluttered open as the light from outside beamed through the window. I could hear someone talking outside, I looked around but I was in a totally different room. Not my own.

"Hey, sorry about that..." Harry smiled, popping his head around the door.

"Sorry for what?" I mumbled, slowly sitting up.

"For bringing you hear instead of home. You see I don't know where you lived and you passed out so I brought you hear and well we took care of you." He laughed, walking over to me.

"Oh... Thanks Harry. But what do you mean we?" I asked, confusion spread across my face.

"Oh, just me and Niall. My brother. Well one of them."

"So she lives!" Said someone else. The boy had a thick Irish accent and dirty blonde hair and bright blue eyes. He looked nothing like Harry though. And he was irish.

"Yeah, I guess I'm alive. For now." I joked, trying not to think of Jake and Libby.

"Well, Harry, why don't you take Christi home. You know, before it gets too late and her parents begin to worry?" The blonde one said.

"Yeah, you're right Niall, come on Christi I'll drop you off." Harry nodded.

By the time we were at my house, it was just getting dark out. Harry climbed out of the car and opened my door. Walking me to the front steps.

"Thanks Harry. I really appreciate it." I smiled, unlocking the door.

"No problem. Just remember Jake and Libby aren't worth it if they want to hurt you. See you at school!" He smiled before heading back to his car.

I threw my beg on the stairs and walked into the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge and a sandwich.

"Oh my god! Chris! Where were you? Are you okay? I'm so sorry about Jake!" Eleanor squealed, pulling me into a right hug. "Where were you? Me and Billie were so worried!"

"I went to my car and then Harry followed me and I passed out and took me to his and then I met his other brother, Niall, who's Irish, which I don't get because Harry and Louis are british, duh so are we! But anyway, he brought me here and told me Jake and Libs weren't worth it!" I gasped, in desperate need of a breath.

"What, so it was our Libby, not ginger Libby?" She asked.

"Yeah. I saw them. Do you wanna sleep over. I just wanna, you know." I asked, fiddling with the bottle cap.

"Course! How about soppy films, chocolate and... POPCORN! Billie said I should stay anyway, she has work all night again." He smiled, running to the cupboard, removing the bars of chocolate, popcorn and sweets.

We sat in out pyjamas watching the notebook, and of course, crying. We were just about to go to bed when there was a knock at the door.

"I'll get it, meet you upstairs. I shouted to El. I opened the door to see Libby, mascara running down her face and sobbing like an idiot.

"What do you want and why are you the one crying?" I snapped, refusing to let her in.

"Please, let me explain, Jake and I only did it because-" she began.

"Just piss off out of my house. You're so stupid. I don't want you or him anywhere near me, EVER again! Just leave!" I shouted. Slamming the door in her face.

I walked upstairs and crawled into bed, ignoring El's questions, falling to sleep. Morning came and me and El got ready and headed to school.

We walked to class and couldn't help but laugh at everyone ignoring Libby and Jake, try were sat alone under a tree, Lib was crying as Jake playing in his phone.

By lunch, the rumour was all the way round the school. Big surprise. Not. Me and El sat at the table with Harry and Louis. Niall was there too, a well as Liam and Zayn. More brothers. By this time I noticed they weren't blood related, considering their looks, and accents. It was all good though, El was trying it on with Louis whilst I was just being nice, trying to ignore the glares from Libby.

Last lesson, science. Thank fuck. We had a substitute teacher, meaning we did no work and talked the entire lesson. Harry and Louis sat next to me and El again. I couldn't help but stare into Harry's green eyes. They were so beautiful I was hypnotised.

At the end of the day I returned to my locker to get my purse and my bag.

"Hey babe." Jake. Fuck sake man!

"Not your babe, what do you want?" I hissed, not making eye contact.

"You. And that whether you want me or not!" He whispered, before dragging me into the cleaning office.

"Jake no! Get off me! HELP!" I screamed, hoping someone could hear me. Doubtful considering everyone would be heading home. He pinned me down and tried to unbutton my jeans, whilst kissing my neck. I was still screaming but he pressed his hand over my mouth. The tears began to flow as he pulled my jeans down and was about to remove his own.

"Jake please stop!" I cried out. He was just about to remove my underwear when the door burst open. Harry and Louis. Louis grabbed Jake by the scruff of his neck, pinning him up the wall whereas Harry scooped me up, still in my pants and t-shirt, and ran down the hall way, round the back of the car park and to his car. He placed me inside and told me to wait there. I curled up on the seat, still crying and coughing. Within minutes Harry and Louis approached the car, climbing in.

"I brought your stuff. I'm so sorry about Jake. Come on, where do you wanna go, take your mind off it?" Louis panted, handing me my things before climbing into the car, Harry taking the drivers seat. I pulled on my jeans and wiped my tears.

"Is it okay if you jut take me home please?" I asked. My voice weak and fragile.

We arrived at my house and just before I went inside I decided to thank them.

"Erm, thanks for that." I smiled weakly. "Would you like to come in?"

"I can't, gotta fetch Niall dinner, maybe another time." Louis smiled

"Sure, if its okay with you?" Harry grinned. I nodded and let him in.

Jesus! That boy is so attractive! His eyes, his pale skin, his pink lips and oh my lord his dimples.

We walked inside and I showed Harry to the living room.

"I'm gonna get changed. Help yourself to anything in the fridge, okay?" I smiled, running upstairs. I changed into my black board shorts and my dark pink panel t-shirt. I walked down stairs and saw Harry in the garden. I stepped outside to see him smiling at my old tree house.

"Wanna go up?" I asked, he smiled and followed me up the step. We sat for a while just talking, Harry flirting every now and then, but I couldn't help feel I was falling for him. For this mysterious boy I barely knew.
