Innocent

new kid

It was finally Monday and I was grounded for a month for skipping and also not telling. I can't go anywhere for the month and no phone for a few months. I sighed as i got to the school doors and like always Ashley was right there smiling at me in a little black dress and high heels. She smiled brighter than normal today. I was in my skinny ripped blue jeans, white sneakers and blue tank top. 

"Hello!" She handed me a box of cookies and a bottle of milk. She had the same thing in her hands.

I smiled back at her. "hello Ashley."

We walked inside and to our lockers. Once we got out things we went to the lunch room and sat down and ate the cookies and drink out milk. There was a crowed of people in the corner of the room and Ashley seemed interested.

"Who is being loved all over this time." She frowned and shoved a full cookie in her mouth.

"Who knows."

As I looked down at the table the person everyone was all crowded around pushed through them and came over to our table. Ashley shrieked and it brought me to look up at the person.

The guys shoes were black, in skinny blue jeans and a white t-shirt that was tug enough to show his muscles and abs through the shirt. His black eyes were staring right into mine and his black hair and red highlights seemed short but long enough to fall gently around his face. His lips curved up into a smile.

"hello." His voice was dark but sweet like chocolate. I swallowed the fear in my throat as the strange loneliness seemed to disappear. 

"H-hi."

"Violet Scar."

"H-how did you know m-my name?"

"You look like a Violet. You have fair skin and a look that any guy wants a girl to have." He grabbed my chin and I pulled away and went silent.

"W-who do you think you are?"

He stood straight up and i finally noticed he was way taller than me.

"Devin Grimmie."

Ashley walked around the table and leaned against him. 

"I'm Ashley Carter."

He looked down at her. "Hello."

"Are you know to our school."

He smiled. "Is it that obvious!"

Another girl walked up to him, laughing. "Of course! Everyone knows Violet is shy and dislikes men and Ashley well she it s slut."

Violet's knees started shacking and Ashley grabbed the girl by her shirt, frowning.

"Say that again Bitch!"

"Slut."

Ashley went to hit her and I ran in between them and found myself on the ground and punched. It hurt a little as I held my hand to my face. The other girl was laughing as Ashley ran over to me.

"Are you ok!"

"That is what you get Violet for getting in our way. Stop protecting this slut in her fights. Pathetic."

Ashley turned around to the girl. "Bitch i will tear your ass up! Keep on talking trash and your going to find your self six feet under!"

"Prove it."

Suddenly the principle came in to the room and stopped the girls. The nurse came in with him and helped me up.

"Are you ok?"

"Doesn't hurt."

"Let's go get some ice on that. Hopefully it doesn't swell up."

Once we got into the room the nurse got a call to go to the middle school and left me alone in the room holding ice to my face. I closed my eyes relaxing until the nurse door opened. I looked to find Devin leaning against the wall looking at me.

"W-what do you want?"

"I want to see how you are."

"I'm a stranger to you. You shouldn't care."

"I do. I feel bad because this all happened because of me. I'm sorry you got hurt."

"I'm use to it. Ashley helps me out and I help her out."

"So what did you tell the nurse."

"I fell on my face."

Devin blinked than laughed at me. "I can see that actually happening."

I felt a bit anger rise and I frowned at him. "What is that suppose to mean!"

He grabbed a few ends of my hair and slyly smiled at me, causing my heart to rise. "It means you need someone to look after you."

"Like who?"

I pulled my hair strands away from him and she smiled brightly at me as he pointed at himself.

"Like me!" He ran his hands through his hair.

I just stared at him blankly. 

"your kidding. right?"

"Nope. And to start it off I'm taking you out to eat this Friday."

"I'm grounded."

"Sneak out."

I blinked at him.

"I'm sure you have done it before." He looked at me threw his eye lashes and slyly smiled again. "Or are you scared to do such a thing?"

"N-NO I'm not!"

"Then it is settled than. I will see you Friday night."

I frowned at Devin. "W-what!? I never agreed!"

He laughed softly at me. "Too Late! Angel."

"A-angel!?"

He smiled at me and I had to look away. 

"yes."

"W-why? M-my name is Violet."

"Angel is your nickname only i can call you." As I turned around to demand him to not call me that Devil was gone. As if I never talked to him or as if he was never even here.

I sighed and laid back down and after homeroom was done I went to my first period class. My cheek was a bit swollen but it wasn't badly swollen.I was still hoping to talk to Devin and oddly he was in everyone of my classes but left before i got a chance to talk to him. Ashley kept apologizing and I kept saying to her it was OK. I gave up on trying to talk to Devin and excepted him to call me Angel. It wasn't the way he said the name that bothered me it was just that no one calls me a nickname without my permission and he never got my permission.

This guy pisses me off!

I sighed as I walked through the rest of my day in a daze. Not sure of what to think of anything. Slowly little by little my life seems to be less boring.
