Secrets

Chapter 3 - Brotherly, sisterly love

~ Taylah's POV ~

The person standing in front of me was definitely the last person I thought would be anywhere near me. If you haven't already figured it out it is Seb.

Why is he helping me? Because his your brother idiot, but then my mind slowly wondered back to what had just happened at lunch between us and all my confusion comes back and some anger.

"Why are you helping me?" I snap into his face.

"You're my little sis why wouldn't I help you?" His face looks hurt but I don't care. Has he already forgotten what happened at lunch? His eyes seem to be searching my eyes for an answer but all I do is glare at him. Soon his expression changes and I think he just remembered what happened.

"Tay I'm so sorry. I am just trying to protect you." Seriously, he is kidding right?

"I'm the same age as you Sebastian," he flinched when I said his full name, I know he hates it and I only call him that when I'm mad at him, "I am quite capable of taking care of myself!"

"Tay, I know you are ..."

"If you know I am stopped controlling my life, stop making decisions for me, you have your own to make and besides the ones you have made in the past haven't been all that good anyway. Stop thinking you're helping me before it's to late to help yourself." Being shocked at my own words I quickly grab my books from Seb and let my red hair fall in my face not wanting to see his reaction to what I had just said. Quickly I make my way to my next class. Spotting Grace in the back row next to Annabel and spare seat next to her I quickly make my way to the back and sit there. Both of there heads snap in my direction it looked like Grace was about to say something but someone had decided to say hey behind me. I decided to ignore the person because of course they weren't talking to me or were they? Really Taylah no one every talks to you in class like ever then the person said my name. Wait they said my name okay, I don't think that there is another Taylah in this room so i slowly turn around to see a boy looking at me. I think I'd seen him before. Oh now I remember he was sitting in front of me at lunch. What was his name? I'm so bad with names trust me to forget.

"Oh sorry I didn't know you were talking to me." I quickly tell him.

"It's fine. I was wondering do you have a pen I could borrow?"

"It's the first day of school! How do you not have a pen?" I scan his desk with my eyes only to see he didn't even have a pencil case. I think he noticed me looking at his desk because he let out a little laugh.

"I don't believe in pencil cases, they are to much to carry and I always end up dropping it on my way to class. So I decided not to use one this year."

"How are you going to survive any of these classes without any pens?"

"I'll find a way, anyway about that pen I asked you about."

"oh yeah sorry, here you go." I reach into my pencil case and retrieve a pen for him.

"Thanks Taylah." I feel so bad that I don't know his name. Trying to think, thinking, still thinking. Nup nothing I have no clue what it could be.

"Oh yeah and by the way my names Matt. I don't think I ever introduced myself." Thank god I thought he had already told me and I just wasn't paying attention.

"Hi Matt." I smile at him. I really like him. Not in that way, calm down. Okay so where is this teacher you would of thought the teacher would already be here with 20 minutes till the end of the day. I guess not. We have all been sitting here for ages doing absolutly nothing beacause it was supposed to be a double english lesson. That clearly didn't happen. I hear voices from the hall way and I am not really sure who's it is or where they are going but soon the door to our classroom opens and in walks the principle I'm guessing.

"Have you kids been sitting in here this whole time waiting." Everyone in the classroom simply just nods their heads at the principle.

"Well good kids for staying but you are free to leave and by leave I mean you can head home early. I'm in a bad mood at the moment so don't think this will happen again." quickly everyone jumps up from their seats and runs out of the classroom I fall back and walk with Annabel, Grace and Matt.

"Hey Taylah, do you want to come to the mall with us after school?" Grace asks.

"Yeah sure who's going?" I ask.

"Annabel, Matt, and another Girl and Matt is inviting some of his mates." Grace replies.

"Sure, are we going there now? How are we getting there?" I ask kind of excited about going to the mall.

"We will take the bus and yeah we are going now." Annabel replies.

"Cool I'll meet you guys out the front of the school." I start to walk to my locker and feel a presence next to me, I turn and see Matt.

~ Seb's POV ~

"Stop thinking you're helping me before it's to late to help yourself." Taylah's words shocked me and I didn't say a word to her, I couldn't my mouth wouldn't move and no words would come out. It was as if someone had zipped them closed, I couldn't even say one god damn word to her before she grabbed her books from me and walked away with her hair in her face not even giving one last look at me to see my reaction. It was like she was shocked at her own words. I would be shocked by my words too if I was her. She has never had an out burst like that before I don't know what has gotten into her. If it was me being rude at lunch today she needs to get over it. I was only trying to help her, can she not get that through her head. I punch the locker door next to me to let out my frustration. I still can't believe I didn't say anything to her.

"Hey Seb, you coming to class or are you just going to look like a lost puppy in the hall way?" Jack says this while making his way towards me.

"Hey Jack, you've got to addmit I'm a pretty cute lost pup." I say back with a slight smirk playing on my lips.

"Yeah, yeah whatever. So you coming or what?" He motions me to follow him to our next class and I have nothing better to do then follow him. Our next class is so boring I don't think I'll survive through history. I just remembered, lucky me. I have a study break after but I think that I might just go home. I don't think Taylah has a study break so I'll just have to wait till after school to talk to her about today. I know a lot of things happened and I probably shouldn't of gotten involved in it but I was only trying to look out for her. Isn't it my role as her brother to look out for her or am I not supposed to.

A/N-

Hey!

I know I was going to try and write a lot these holidays and I'm so sorry I didn't get around to it. I wrote this on the holidays but I never uploaded it on the holidays. Whoops.

Okay, so my dad gave me his computer to do some work on so I decided to start writing this chapter on the laptop but about half way through writing it I realised the format of the writing has changed but I think I like it better this way.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
