CHAPTER 16

CHAPTER 16

***Marcel's POV***

What is he doing here. I didn't ever think he would be here to help me. I mean he pounds my face in everyday and calls me every word in the dictionary. At least all the mean words. He has called me gay, fag, and many more words I have never used. i wouldn't think it would be him helping me.

"John what are you doing? Don't lie to help me. I don't need your lies to get out of this."

"Marcel you need to shut your mouth, I'm not lying I was there. I was going to the store, I was a few cars behind you. I only knew it was you cause of that painting. Plus I saw your hair. Ok well I was watching the light and saw this guy coming up, he was going full speed and didn't even bother looking at the light, his face was scrunched up and he looked drunk." John tells me.

"Were going to take a recess so everyone can gather this new evidence." The judge says.

"Why do you want to help me though?"

"Cause you promised to keep my secret. If I didn't see you that day, I don't think I would help you. I promise I would start to be nicer to you, I am trying to do that. And you should forgive Niall, I made him do all that, or I would have told everyone he was gay. I know I should probably go to hell but, I want to try and be nice from now on."

"Why should I forgive Niall. Even though you made him do all that crap to me, I don't see why I should forgive him. He never said sorry, and when he did it was after I said everything he did to me in front of Kristen, I couldn't forgive him he never came to my house to see if I was ok. I bet the school doesn't even know we were in a car accident but, when that kid Jacob got in a car accident the whole school freaking knew. That shows you how much they care about me. My best friend didn't even come or I used to call best friend didn't even send a 'hope you get better' card. So I don't care anymore. I don't want anyone's sympathy. He screwed so many things in my life. He broke my leg and told all the girls I had a disease, a lot of girls talked to me in the 6th grade once that was told no one talked to me." I say tears pricking at my eyes.

Kristen takes my hand and leans her head on my shoulder. John looks at her and nods towards her, I nod back clearing it that she is my girl.

"What Niall have to do so he could show you that he is sorry and won't do it again?"

"I don't know what Niall would have to do. I want my old friend Niall back, the one that didn't drink. The one that cared about me and hanged out with me, the one that would come to my house so we could study together. The one that actually cared about me."

I say crying I don't care if John sees me crying, there is nothing he hasn't said about me. I could care less right now, I have Kristen with me. She is my protector and I need her to protect me.

"Well maybe you should think about it. Everyone needs to be forgiven sometime that is probably now. I know that you are confused why I'm here, I know why and you will find out soon Marcel. Just know I want to be one of your friends. If you don't want me to be I understand, just consider the thought."

After that he sits on the opposite side of Kristen. She looks disgusted and scoots closer to me. I pull her closer and John shakes his head. I know exactly what he's think and he is not getting her. Not this one John she is mine and I'm keeping her for myself.

"Recess is over court is back in session" The judge says.

"We take Mr. Stalling on are side. He is a witness and has given everyone new information. Could the city bring up the video of that day and show us."

"WHAT NO LET'S NOT DO THAT!!!!"

"Why Mr. Tucker. Is there stuff on that tape that will count you guilty?"

"Yes I purposely rammed into them. I still love her and I can't stand watching her with another guy."

"Mr. Tucker you are going to jail for purposely harming them and will pay for all the trouble you have caused them. Including the hospital bill, and for his car that you haves damaged. Any other things that you have caused will also pay for. Court adjourned."

Kristen stands up and kisses me multiple times. I hold her tight and kiss her back. All are problems are gone.

"Good job Marcel your safe again." John says and starts to walk away.

"John wait. Thanks for your help. It's you that let us win this court session thanks again."

"No problem. Um I'm going to call you later to tell you. I have your number don't worry about giving it to me."

"Okay? Bye John."

"Bye Marcel." He says and walks out. Okay John was officially scarier than usually.
