Opposites Attract {Janiel}

Chapter 3

~Joey's POV~

I wake up and sigh. I really hope Tyler's on the bus, because it's super awkward sitting with Daniel on the bus. He's one of them, just as I expected.

I get up and get dressed. I text Tyler.

J- You better be on the bus today.

T- Lmao I'm gonna be on the bus. Why what happened? Poor Joey was alone?

J- No, and that's exactly why I need you on the bus.

T- Who sat next to you? That guy in PE who has a really bad odor problem?

J- even worse.

T- Stinky Stewart? God I hate that guy

J- Tyler

T- Lmao WHO IS IT NO ONE CAN BE WORSE THEN STINKY STEWART

J- Daniel

T- OH SHIT BOY YOUR CRUSH SAT NEXT TO YOU CONGRATZ

J-it was so awkward tho..

T- Do you think he likes you!?!

J- you saw him he laughed when sawyer tripped me.... I don't think so.

I click off my phone and I walk out the door, waiting for the bus. The bus pulls up and I hop on, getting a seat in the front, as usual. I sit down in an empty seat. Tyler's usually here by now, where is he!? I look out the window to see Daniel walking up to the bus. He walks onto the bus, flashes me a smile, and walks all the way to the back of the bus with the gang. Phew. But his cute little smile was adorable. I need to stop thinking about him, it's never going to happen. Tyler walks onto the bus, and I sigh of relief.

We walk off the bus and we meet Connor and Troye and we walk into the school. We unpack our backpacks and we hang out in the hallway. Sawyer's crew passes us, and we pretend we don't see them.

~Daniel's POV~

I wanted to stop Sawyer right there. Why did he hate these people so much? What did they do to him? I take a glance at their terrified faces. "Hey Graceffa" Sawyer says, pushing him. He gulps. You dropped something Sawyer says, pointing to the ground, which causes the innocent boy to look at the ground. Sawyer smacks the books out of his hands and kicks him to the ground. I turn around. I can't bare to see these people get hurt liket his. I've seen it many times in my old schools, and I'm sick of it. I speak up. "Get to class! I'll take care of them" I smile and they laugh, high fiving me and walking away. I make sure their gone and I look back over at them. They all have terrified looks on their faces. I take on step closer and the one they picked on closed his eyes. "Relax" I whisper. "I'm saving your asses from those guys. I couldn't bare watching them do this. Follow me" I said, and they all looked surprised, but they listened. They followed me and I lead them through a secret hallway, right to their first period class. They all thank me, and before they leave I stop them. "Remember, I was never here and you never saw me. If they ask, I stole... your lunch money?" I say and a smile appears on their face and they walk into first period.

I pack my backpack and I turn around to see Sawyer and his crew, with an annoyed expression on Sawyer's face. I gulp quietly. "Hey guys" I say. "Really?" Sawyer says. "Stealing Lunch money? Look, I know you're new here, but you gotta step up your game" They laugh and I laugh, sighing of relief. "I'll try harder next time." I laugh, and I quickly pull out a couple dollars I had on me. "But I still got the money you don't have." They all laugh and walk off. Once they clear out, I can see the group I helped out earlier. I still don't know their names, but I'll find out sooner or later. They winked at me and I laughed, winking back at them, and running to catch up with Sawyer.

~Joey's POV~

"He totally likes you!!" Tyler squeals and I blush. He wasn't just helping and smiling at me guys" I laugh. "Well he did sit with you, and he did smile at you." Connor pokes me. "Cause that's the nice thing to do." I laugh "He's one with Sawyer, there's no way he's gay and likes me." I sigh. "Yeah but he did help us escape Sawyer, and I'm pretty sure if he hated you he wouldn't of sat anywhere near you on the bus!" Troye adds. "There was no where else on the bus." I laugh and we all walk off to the bus.

On our bus way home, Tyler wouldn't stop bugging me about Daniel. "Joey's got a crush! Joey's got a cruuushh!!" He chanted giggling. I smile and blush, and I give him a little bunch. "Even if he isn't gay, or if he doesn't like you, I will make sure it happens." Tyler promises and I look at him worryingly, and he laughs.
