Don't Let Me Go

Chapter 6

I stepped into the little, red car. I was dreading today even before it started.

"You look nice love," Harry said with a snicker.

I leaned over his seat and smacked him in the head. I'm surprised I could even reach.

I heard Grace's faint voice start to speak.

"Please be good today at school guys. It'd be very unfortunate to have to send you guys back. I got you guys these in case you need to call me or you meet some people."

Me and Harry both nodded in agreement as she handed us each an iPhone. Moments later we were stopped in front of a huge building with swarms of teenagers. I gave Grace a hug before stepping out of the car. She wished us a simple good luck.

So this is Pineview. It didn't seem like a normal high school. There were more people smoking than popular girls fixing their artificial hair. Well this is odd I thought to myself.

I starting walking into the building before Harry stopped me to open the door. I smiled up at him. As I walked down the hallway I felt all eyes on me. It felt as if they were burning holes in my soul. I made my way to my locker and quickly grabbed my books wanting to be out of center of attention as soon as possible. Right as I was about to walk into my first period I felt a pair of eyes drilling a stare into the back of my skull.

I turned around and was greeted with a pair of pale blue eyes similar to mine. They looked upset like when waves forcefully crash onto a beaches shore-line. I wanted to talk to him but no words could be made out. He stared at for me which seemed like hours which was only probably a minute. He then walked off into the crowd of teens. I shook it off and walked into class. Harry wasn't in this class and I guess everyone could tell I was new because a girl with blonde hair just like mine but a little fainter and blue tips walked up to me.

"Hi I'm Stella, you must be Lily the new girl?"

"Uh yeah that's me" I awkwardly clung my books to my chest. I noticed when she talked that she had a lip ring that bobbed when words slipped out of her rosy lips.

"You should come sit by me so you don't feel left out. Don't worry I'm not a loser so you won't regret being friends with me later," she said with a laughed.

"It's okay I already know I'm a loser. You might be the one regretting being friends with me." I started to laugh. I then went and sat in the desk next to hers. We were sitting in the way back. So I'm going to be this kind of person.

The whole class me and Stella talked, trying to get to know each other. She likes The Smiths, Joy Division and flannel shirts. She's 15 like me and has no siblings. She's in a band with some other guys at this school. I could tell she was hiding something behind her red eyes though. Before I could ask the bell had rung. She told me to meet her infront of the school after all my classes were over

-skips to last class-

I tapped my fingers impatiently counting down the minutes till the bell. Today was okay I mean especially for a Monday.

I heard someone walk into the room. I looked up and saw the boy with blue eyes once again. He sat at the desk two away from me. He started tapping his feet against the cold floor. I could tell he was agitated and upset. Before I could continue my observation he stormed out of the room. Before he left he glanced at me and shook his head at the ground.

The whole time I was thinking about him and how he faintly looked like the boy in my dream. He most likely wasn't because why would my brother come back for me. I heard the bell ring and I rushed through the crowd to my locker. I grabbed my books and met Stella outside. She had what appeared to be a cigarette in between her two fingers.

"Hey." I felt uncomfortable once I realized that wasn't tobacco in her cigarette.

"Hey, I just wanted to get your number before you left," she said as she handed me her phone. I put my contact in and said a simple goodbye.

I pulled out my phone to call Harry before I was greeted with a great big hug from behind.

"How was your day love?"

"Don't start with me," I let out a little more angrily than I should.

"What did I do? I generally care how my best friends day was," he replied letting out a deep laugh.

Before I could reply Grace's car pulled up to the curb. I jumped into the backseat and pulled out my phone. Might as well take a selfie for the first day of school.

I grabbed my bag and stepped through the front door. I walked straight up the stairs and into my room. I set my bag on my bed and headed for the bathroom. I took of my makeup and slipped off my clothes from my small frame. I turned on the water and watched as the little droplets from the shower fell. I felt sad for some odd reason. I just felt useless like nobody would ever even want me. Not even my parents did. I sat on the bathroom floor knees brought up to my chest, head in hands. I let small tears slide down my eyes as I continued to watch the water droplets fall from the shower head. I finally decided to take a shower. After I had finished I slipped on one of Harry's old hoodies he had given me and some yoga shorts. I then dried the wet droplets in my hair off and put my hair into a high pony tail.

I stepped out the door letting the steam roll off me. I quietly shuffled over to my bed and laid down setting my head onto my bear. My phone started to buzz so I reached over and grabbed it. 5 new texts and 1 missed call. Two from Stella about my "hot boyfriend". I think she meant Harry. 1 from Harry asking me what's wrong and 1 asking if anything had happened from Grace. There was one unknown number, that's odd. I don't remember giving anyone my number beside Stella. I unlocked my phone and read it.

From Unknown: You better better be careful who you trust

All I could hear was my heart start to beat fast and my fingers tapping at the screen as I typed who are you. What the hell does "you better be careful who you trust" mean? I shrugged it off and walked downstairs to Harry and Grace eating.

We talked about school how school went. Apparently Harry had made some friends, Zayn, Niall, Louis, and Liam. They sounded cool.

After dinner I brought my dishes to the sink and walked up the long stair case. I snuggled up to my bear while I cocooned myself in my covers. I drifted off to the sound of faint rain hitting against my window pane.

I awoke to the feeling of a hand clamp over my mouth.

"Don't say a word and come with me", said a deep and husky voice.
