(The alley)

"What do you want to talk about?" I ask.

"You're going to help me." Jasper says. "I know you love Drake and you can't help it." He laughs.

I feel like I want to punch him right in the face but Khalid and Haden have my arms pinned behind my back. I've always hated him and his friends and I still do. "Tell me what I have to do." I demanded.

He stops laughing and becomes serious.

"You're going to"-----he was interrupted by a loud thud, it sounded like a body dropped. He moves from his spot and walks over to the entrance alley. I don't know what he is seeing because we're in a dark alley.

Then I see someone jump from the roof and go on top of him. He punches him a few times until he is knocked out.
The person who knocked out Jasper, comes in the alley towards us.

Haden and Khalid put me behind them. We're walking backwards until us three are cornered by the guy. The guy is wearing a mask, so I don't know what his face looks like.

The guy knocks out them both. He comes up towards me and grabs my hand. We walk out of the alley leaving Jasper and his friends knocked out.

We arrive on the school property to the wall, where I was taken by Jasper and his friends. The guy takes off his mask revealing himself as Drake. I'm speechless and my mouth is open wide in shock.

He hands me my lunch box and kisses me on the forehead. "Please don't eat behind the school again." He says and then goes inside through the school doors. I go inside the school and head to the hallway.

I look down at my wrist watch to see how much time has passed since I was gone. Luckily lunch is just finishing up and people are going to their next classes. I put my lunch box in my locker and take out my math books. I head into the classroom and I open my text book. Mr. Adison comes in and we begin.

Forty minutes later.....

"Class is now dismissed." Mr. Adison said.

We got our stuff and headed to our lockers.

While I put my math books in my locker, I see Drake over by his locker. I get my books out and I go over to him.

"Hi Drake." I said to get his attention.

"Oh, hi." He says quietly as he closes his locker.

"Thanks for rescuing me from Jasper and his friends." I say looking down on the tile floor.

"Just be more careful." He says and then leaves.

I head to my next class which is writing.

The teacher says that we will not be doing a writing assignment because of next week.

Thirty-five minutes later......

I go to my locker to drop off my books, and I get my gym clothes out.

I head to the girl's changing room and I change into gym clothes.

I put my uniform into my locker and head to the gym. We're warming up before the teacher comes. But people aren't taking their warm ups seriously. Neither is Yzsa. They're taking more pictures of him and he's is posing after the cameras click. Cameras are clicking non-stop, even when Mr. Darrell walks in.

"What is going on?" He yells. The camera people lower their cameras and look at him. Yzsa stops posing and looks up at Mr. Darrell. No one says a word and they put their cameras aside. We start running laps around the gym. Mr. Darrell doesn't say anything but isn't happy.
