Growing Up With Him- Conor Maynard Fan Fic

22

We go into the school for the dance. We all dance and listen to music being played by the dj, Jack Maynard. They asked him to Dj. The principal comes on the microphone.
"Now, were gonna have a special dance for the class couple which is, Samantha and Conor!" He says. Everyone cheers and claps. I'm in complete shock. Conor takes a hold of my hand and leads us on the dance floor. Jack plays a slow song. He puts his hands on my hips and I wrap my hands around his neck and dance to the slow song.
"You know, so many people are taking pictures" I say.
"Yeah." He smiles. We are the only people each other can hear. Zoe and Tanya are like being girly over this as usual. The slow song finished and we all go back to regular dancing. It's hard to hear anyone. I was one moment dancing with Conor, then my wrist got dragged along the crowd to outside. I look to see who's got a hold of me. Oh my gods. It's Jacob.
"Let go of me!" I say as we're outside.
"Look, you don't think I've forgotten about you now do you?" He says. He punches me and I fall the the ground.
"Stop Jacob! Why on graduation day? Why? I was so happy and why did you have to come along and fucking ruin it?" I yell.
I kick him and run back inside. I struggle to find anyone. I run the the bathrooms and lock myself into the bathroom. I have a full on panic attack. I cry and hyperventilate. I pace around in the bathroom. Two people come into the bathroom. It's Zoe and Tanya. They see me shaking and crying. They rush over and hug me tight.
"Sam, calm down. What's happened?!?" Zoe asks.
"What's wrong?" Tanya asks.
"We were all dancing then you disappeared." Zoe says.
I calm down to talk.
"I was dancing with Conor one moment, the next I was yanked outside by Jacob. He punched me and I yelled at him. I kicked him to get away and I ran. I couldn't find anyone so I went into the bathroom. Why me? What did I do? Why graduation? I can't escape!" I say. I start crying again.
"Tanya go get Conor." Zoe tells Tanya. She nods and runs out. Zoe calms me down. Conor and Tanya come in. Conor hugs me tight.
"I'm here now baby. Shhh call down. Tanya told me. He's not gonna hurt you anymore. Just breathe." He says. I calm down more. I clean my face from the running mascara. I calm down more.
"Wanna leave?" Conor asks.
"Yeah." I say. Everyone else decided to leave cause it started to get boring. Im a wreck. We all go get some food at go to the park. We get ambushed with paparazzi. They take pictures of us and leave.
"That was weird." I say.
"Agreed." Caspar says.
"Wait we are all 18 right?" Jack asks. We all nod yes.
"Well, the legal drinking age is 18. Sooooooo. See where I'm getting at?" Jack says.
"Lads lads lads lads!" All the guys cheer.
"I don't know." I say.
"Come on babe. It'll be fun." Conor says kissing me.
"No, I'm just gonna stay home. Not in the mood tonight." I say. Conor pulls me to the side.
"Hey, listen. He's gone. He can't hurt you now. Come on. Let's go out. Drink." He says.
"No Conor. I don't wanna drink tonight. You can but I'm gonna go apartment hunting in London." I say.
He sighs.
"Okay." He says.
"I love you." He says kissing me.
"I love you to." I say. Zoe and Tanya decided not to go out either. We're gonna have a girls night. All the guys head out and we head to Zoe's. It's already dark in Brighton. We change into cute black matching sweatpants and white crop tops. We go into Zoe's huge bathroom and make face masks. We throw our hair into buns and put the clay masks on and film us. We talk about our boyfriends and just talk about girly things. Luckily Zoe's parents are out so we can do whatever we want.
" let's go make smoothies!" Zoe says.
"Yes!" Tanya and I say. We go downstairs and make and eat smoothies. Strawberry and banana with whipped cream on top and a red, white and black straw. We take all these Instagram pictures.
