Will and I decided to give Dianne a ride back to her house, but then we stopped for ice cream on the way.
"What flavor do you want?", I asked Dianne, who was sitting in the backseat of Will's car.
"Um, vanilla please."
"Sure thing kid."
She seemed to be freaked out by us, even though we reassured her that we weren't going to kill her.
When we got our ice cream through the drive thru, we continued our drive to drop Dianne off.
"Thanks for helping me back there.", she whispered timidly.
"No problem. I hate snobs like them. Always thinking that they're better then everyone else just because they have the money or the beauty.", I hissed.
"Sounds like you speak from experience.", stated Will.
And he was right. I had experienced that, not that I would tell him.
"Don't need to. Just looking at how they treat others is enough."
It was quiet for awhile until Dianne broke it.
"So you know my name, can I know your names?"
"Sure. My name's Natalie. This dumbass over here is William."
"I'm not a dumbass.", Will stated.
"Ok."
Soon we arrived to Dianne's house.
"Well thanks for the ride guys.", chimed Dianne.
"Bye."
As she started to walk away I called after her. When she turned around I spoke,
"Don't let them humiliate you. If they ever hurt you or anything of the like, call me."
When I was done I gave her a piece of paper with my number.
After that was said, Will drove off.

William's pov

When Natalie had talked about people who thought they were better than others for certain reasons, it sounded like she was talking from experience.
Not only that, but when she was talking about it, pain seemed to rush into her eyes.
I had told her about it, and when she answered, I knew she was lying.
I didn't want to push her into telling me though.
The ride was pretty silent until we had finally pulled up to her house.
"It was nice to hang out with you Will, even if things didn't go well."
"That's ok. As long as you had fun.", I replied while giving her a smile.
"Bye Will."
"Bye Natalie."
"Call me Nat."
"Ok."
Right when she was going to leave, I remember something.
I reach out and grab her hand before she could exit the car, ignoring the sparks that came with it.
"Nat?"
"Yeah?"
"If you ever need to talk to anyone, I'm always here."
"Ok. Thanks."
Letting her hand go, she exits my car, and begins to walk to her door.
I wait till she's safely inside before driving off.
