The Broken Boy

Chapter 5

So it's been two days since I last saw Grayson. He hasn't been in school which means i've had to pick the subject of our project.

I walk into my History class and take my normal seat and take out my notes. Then I hear a chair scraping and i feel someone brush against my arm which immediately sends shocks up it.

I jump back and look up to see Grayson staring back at me with an amused look on his face.

" Did I scare you? " he asks smirking.

" yes, you did! What is up with you and your brother always scaring me!?" I ask.

He smirks and turns his attention towards the board. The teacher then comes in to take attendance.

" ahhh Mr. Mathews, I see you finally decided to grace us with you presence " she says looking up at Grayson.

I see his fist clench and I feel him go stiff next to me.

" I was busy with more important things. " he says taking deep breaths afterwards.

The teacher just rolls her eyes and continues down the list.

I look over at Grayson and he has his head in his hands. I figure i should try to talk to him about the project to get his mind off of whatever is making him upset.

" hey, Grayson, I decided on the subject for our project since you were gone " I say nudging him with my hand.

He glares at me and rolls his eyes " you really couldn't have waited for me? what if I don't want to do what you picked?!" he all but screams at me. I can feel my eyes start to water and I see his face and eyes soften but then they harden AGAIN.

" I-I'm SORRY Grayson, she told me I had to pick or we would fail, I tried texting you but you never ans-" he cut me off.

" I don't care what your excuse is, just don't talk to me anymore." he says as he is putting his headphones in. I can feel the tears rolling down my cheek so I raise my hand.

The teacher looks at me and rushes over " Are you okay Izzy!?" she asks. I just shake my head and ask to go to the restroom. she says yes and I book it out of the room and go crashing into a very hard wall.

CHRISTIAN'S POV

" watch where your going!" I say and then I look down and see Izzy staring back at me with tears in her eyes and my face softens.

" sorry Izzy I didn't know it was you, are you okay?! What happened to you?!" I ask looking concerned holding out my hand to help her up.

She gets up and starts to cry even harder " Gra- Grayson, he yelled at me" She says sobbing.

She looks really sad but I don't really know what to do in these situations so I put my arms around her and let her cry into my chest. Then I hear her start to talk.

" Its just I don't get yelled at very often and when I do it makes me sad, I don't get why he's being mean we were just fine on Monday!" she says starting to stop her tears.

I shake my head " I don't know what is wrong with him" but im gonna find out I say in my head. She goes to stand up and I stand up with her as I get an idea.

" hey, how about we go and skip the rest of the day we can go and eat at your favorite place!" I suggest hoping she will agree.

She seems to be having an argument with herself in her head then she smiles.

" Sure, why not, just let me go get my coat and get myself together." I cheer in my head and say okay.

Around 15 minutes later I see her come around the corner and she looks good as new. She smiles at me and I feel butterflies in my tummy....what the hell is that!? I can't care about her!

I take her hand and lead her to my car and open the door for her. She looks up and smiles at me an i get in the car.

" Not that im complaining but, why are you being so nice to me? " she asks me.

I shrug and turn on some music. Then when she isn't looking I smirk knowing my brother will see that me and her are missing and he will get pissed.

GRAYSON'S POV

I see her run from the room and I instantly feel guilty. I had to do it though..she cant get to close...she will find out.

I get to lunch and look for her but I don't see her, then I look for Christian and I don't see him....Fuck! I bet he has something to do with it! I feel a tap on my shoulder and it brings me out of my thoughts. I whip around and see Taylor.

" Have you seen Izzy?" She asks

"No, I think she is with my brother though..he isnt here either" I say clenching my fists and grinding my teeth.

"Well can you call him because she isnt answering her phone?"

I get out my phone and dial his number.

"Haha hello Brother"

" Where is she, Christian?"

" where is who? Grayson."

" Izzy!?!?"

" well after you made her cry she ran into me an i offered to take her to get something to eat and a ride home"

I feel myself getting furious so i hang up. I dont know what he is up to but I am going to find out.
