JENNA'S P.O.V*

I walked back home, smiling at the floor as I listened to my music. When did my luck change so much?

George had noticed me, and more. I'd been introduced to a few more people, some weren't exactly nice but they're people anyway.. And my Mum had been feeling better lately too.

As I was nearing the end of the street before my house, I felt someone nudge my back, making my earphone fall out.

I turned around, expecting to see George or Megan, but completely sinking back when I saw that girl that had slapped George earlier.. Emily I think.

"Y-yes?" I stuttered, my shyness overpowering me again.

She smirked slightly, "So, you and George are like a thing now?" She asked, flipping her hair slightly and looking at me like I was a piece of dirt.

"N-No. We're friends." I sighed, now understanding why she wanted to talk to me.

She laughed from her throat, "That boy doesn't do friends."

Before I had chance to reply, she had strutted away before yelling back, "Just warning you!"

I looked at her as she walked away before huffing and turning back round, putting my music back on.

She can't be telling the truth. We'd hit it off so easily. She's just a jealous cow.

*GEORGE'S P.O.V*

When I got back to the warehouse, nobody was back yet. I loved having some time to myself in this place..

I dropped my bag onto the floor before walking to the kitchen and grabbing a can of soda before coming back to the main area and slumping down.

This was like my second home.. I spent most of my time here, only sleeping and having some family time at home.

This place was were I could.. Be myself I guess. Or be the boy I thought I was, until I met Jenna.

Before we got that History Assignment, not long ago at all, I was having sex every other day, of not every. Drinking, smoking a pack of cigarettes every day and getting into recurring fights.

But, with that girl, I felt at peace. I felt generally happy for once and I loved it. She had such innocence that intrigued me.. And now, we're binded together by the threats of Ben anyway, even if she didn't know it.

Suddenly, someone banged hard on the door. I jumped out my thoughts and leaped up, striding over to it and unlocking it reluctantly.

She second I turned the key so it clicked, the door swung open, almost whacking me in the face.

In strode Ben, followed by Brad and another boy who I didn't recognise.

I huffed, slamming the door shut and turning round to face them. "What?"

"We just came to warn you, Shelley." Brad said, stepping out and glaring at me.

"About what?" I sighed, not caring much for their pathetic attempt in group rivalry.

"Like Ben said, things are gonna get worse." Then other boy said, he had medium length black hair with piercing green eyes.. He looked like a snake.

"And you are?" I rolled my eyes, looking at him.

"This is another group member, his name is Sam," Ben introduced, "And he's right"

"Why would things get 'worse'?" I scoffed, emphasising the word with my fingers. "I haven't done anything to you."

"You've played every single member of our new alliance. And your mates aren't angels either, there's people out for revenge on each of you 4 out there.. So, one big group should do nicely." He smirked.

"Why are you targeting just me then?" I asked, picking up my can again and taking a sip.

"You have more to loose." Ben said, an amused tone in his voice as she three boys headed for the door.

"Like what exactly?" I asked, stepping infront of the door, now I was a little worried.

"Like.. Your family," My stomach churned, "Your friends and that little, strange girl you've been hanging round with. Oh, there's lots we can do to hurt you, George" He laughed.

I threw my can on the floor, charging at him, grabbing his collar and shoving him against the door roughly.

"You fucking stay away from my family!" I hissed, so close to his face that I could feel his breath. "They have nothing to do with what we do. Neither does Jenna!" I yelled, before widening my eyes and backing away.

"So that's her name, is it?" He smirked, I stood, heavy breathed and shaken as I pointed to the door.

"Get out before I do something I'd regret."

They smirked at each other before darting out the door.

I followed them and slammed it shut as they left.

"ARRGH!" I screamed, pulling at my face with my hands as I slid my back down the door.

They've fucking done it now!

It's on.
