Making a Difference (sequel to PDA)

Ch.13: Making a Construction Friendship

~Lilith~

I felt sick when I saw those pictures of Albany being spread around the school, it was on lockers and walls. Albany, Levi, Chris, heck even Brooklyn tried to remove them but they were too much to be removed. Albany was going through hell, Uncle Zayn left and now this. I wanted to know how in the world is Albany still standing. She was also with Andy, the guy who hit her more than once. I didn't want Albany to suffer. I thought she would have told her fathers about what happened. I did forgive Albany for what went between us ever since she stood up for us.  I was at my locker while Levi helped her get to class and Chris was doing everything in his well-house to help her go through the halls but to be honest Albany was never going to get her reputation back. I knew that it was her body because the picture was set in the locker room. I felt disgusted with Safire and what she did to Albany all because Albany developed some sort of a backbone. It wasn't right. I felt a tap on my shoulder and there stood Susan the captain of the dance team. She smiled at me. "Hey, you're Lilith right" She asked me and I nodded my head while trying to keep my composure up but it was difficult. She looked ultimately beautiful to me. "Can I ask you for some help" Susan asked me while I held my books. "I could use your help on the musical, so what you say" Susan asked me. I was about to reject her but something in my mind told me to say yes so that what I was doing. "Okay, I'm in" I told Susan and Susan rushed off to her class. I smiled to myself. "Thanks Lil" Susan called out to me and I smiled to myself and entered into my class. I could barely paid attention to what was going on. I kept doodling on my notebook. Susan actually came up to talk with me. A part of me thought it was a joke. The bell rang and I went back to my locker which was decorated on the inside. Susan was standing by it and she had a huge smile plastered on her face. "Oh, by the way Lil can you help with designing the dance team outfits" Susan asked me while giving me  a pouty dog eyed look and I just nodded my head yes. "Yeah why not" I responded to Susan and Susan hugged me tight before skipping away. I kept shaking my head and I turned around and there stood Albany. She had a small smile. "So you and Susan" She wiggled her eyebrows and I rolled my eyes at her. "She's straight by the way" I commented to Albany and Albany shook her head. "Nope last I heard about her is that she's bi or gay" Albany shrugged her shoulders acting like it was no big deal. I was proud of how Albany was acting brave and tough even though the halls were still talking about her naked photos that must have spread around the internet by now. "Whatever, how do you even know about Susan" I asked her and Albany smiled at me. "I know about everyone." She wiggled her eyebrows around. I sighed and shook my head. Albany had a big ego. We walked down the halls and all of sudden I saw a guy pushed her into a locker trying to kiss Albany and Albany kept trying to push her away. I looked down the hall there was Chris and Andy in a heated conversation. I kept tugging the guy away but it wasn't working. I rushed down the hall and I stepped between Andy and Chris. "Lilith, we having a conversation" Chris huffed out. "Well, this guy is forcing himself on Albany as we speak" I commented to both of them. Andy looked angry and ran and punched the guy in his face. "DO NOT TOUCH MY GIRLFRIEND" Andy shouted at the boy and the boy ran off in the opposite direction. Albany rested her head on Andy's shoulder. i know I said I didn't like what Andy did but Albany looked peaceful being with Andy. "So, Grace told me that Susan has a thing for you" Chris gave me a small smile and I rolled my eyes at Chris. "Oh, really" I asked him and Chris nodded. "But I won't let my little sister get hurt. So if she hurt you, I will not hesitate to cut her up and I mean that" Chris said while walking to his class. I knew Andy and Albany wanted to be left alone so I found myself walking to class all alone. I sat down at my desk just tapping my legs once again. I was bored. Today was a pretty boring day and I just wanted to it to be over. 

I walked into the auditorium and I looked around the room that I had never been in. I saw rehearsal going on for the musical. I smiled to myself and I saw Susan directing the students and how she wanted them to be. She was so professional and i couldn't stop smiling to myself. Rehearsal was done and I walked up to Susan. "Oh my gosh, you actually came" Susan hugged me and I had to admit, I wasn't one for hugs but I was enjoying it a bit. "Yeah I told you I would help you and I meant it" I smiled a little bit at her. "Okay good so this is what I was thinking" Susan started talking but I was focused on her lips and soft it would be to place mine on hers. I shook my head and this time try to pay attention to her. It was nearly impossible. I have it bad. I knew it. "And that's what I'm thinking" Susan said and I just stared at her. "Sorry can you repeat that" I told her and Susan just let out this cute giggle that made me feel happy hearing. "So do you usually stop listening to people" Susan asked me while I sat down on the stage and she smiled at me a bit.
