Chapter 7

As soon as I spoke, Caleb got cornered by a car, the same as Mike's. I didn't  think it was him until he stepped out of the vehicle with the rest of his clique.

"You assholes, get the fuck out of the truck", I heard Mike yell while Tim shattered the windscreen with a club he found nearby.

I shut my eyes tight so it was protected from the broken pieces of glass. With the club in Tim's hand, I had my pants in a twist. I got scared. I remained so till Caleb stepped out of the truck to face Tim. Since Caleb took the guy with the club, that scared me less as I went for Mike.

Wholly joined Mike to hit me. I only remembered his presence when I got turned around then a blow to my nose. I bled immediately and got hit again by Mike. I tried to gain control once again. The only way now was to hit either of them in the crotch. Since Wholly caused my bleeding nose, I hit his crotch with as much strength as I could muster which was enough to get him to lose his balance. As soon as Mike saw this, he got distracted and I used that second wisely. I hit his crotch to. As he was about to hit the ground, I hit his nose. The intensity of the hit told me he's broken his nose. My right hand was aching. I never delivered a blow that fierce.

I looked over at Caleb who had already gotten the club out of the Tim's grip. Caleb was doing a great job. I have no idea if he hit Tim with the club earlier but I saw him hit his back with it twice. The intensity of that hit could keep him in a wheelchair. I think he wanted to hit him again but I walked to him hurriedly and snatched the club from him.

Damn! We're in a real mess.

I look over at T3, all groaning on the ground. I hold my nose up and step into Caleb's truck.

Surprisingly, Caleb doesn't look like he's in any kind of pain. He's either that good at fighting or better at enduring pain.

I only realised we were on a quiet road and no one saw our mess when Caleb got the wheel.

That's one less problem.

Caleb dropped me off at home. I went up straight to get myself cleaned up. I cleaned out my nose and washed up.

I made myself dinner. I was eating when I heard the door.

"coming!", I called out.
Looking through the peephole, I saw my mom.
I sprang the door open and hugged her. I missed her a lot. I hated the fact I had to make what I'd eat daily most especially.

"I missed you so much mom", I whispered.
"I missed you too son", she responded.

I let her come in and I shut the door.
I grabbed her luggage and took them up to her room.
I saw her down in the chair when I got down again. I offered her water to drink.
She downed it unusually.
"You must be very tired. Will you eat after your shower or sleep?" I asked but she was gone. I got her a blanket and covered her with it.

I smiled at her sight then stopped as soon as I remembered the story she's yet to find out.
She'll find out one way or another so I know I better spill as soon as possible. She'd better hear it all from me.

I woke up early enough but refused to get off my bed. I wasn't ready to begin the day. About an hour later, mom came to wake me up. She said breakfast was ready so I should get ready for school and get down to eat.

I went about getting ready lazily. I got down to mashed potatoes. It was nice as always. I then left for school without telling my mom about the fight and detention. I was going to tell her later, I decided.

At school, there was no avoiding paths with the T3. They were suspended for the next two weeks. Besides, Caleb and I hit them pretty bad yesterday. Walking through the crowd, I couldn't but notice numerous stares from the ladies. I should get used to this but I'm still not brave enough to make a move on them.

At the sound of the thundering bell, it was a rat race! Everyone was racing to their respective classrooms. That's new. I didn't run, I just walked a bit faster. I was excited to know I won't be seeing T3 in school for a while. It still hurt I had stay after school for detention no thanks to them.

I got to class as Mr Frank arrived. I got to my seat quickly and looked around but there was no Caleb. 

I was wondering where on earth he could be when he walked in with this new girl. She whispered something to Mr Frank and he nodded in response.

"My name's Nina. Nina Gilbert. I just transferred to this school, Mystic High", I think heard her say. I was lost in her voice. I never heard an angels voice but I think hers will pass. I looked at her, head to toe, she was the definition of beauty. "she's the one.", I told myself. "I need to know her."

Caleb took his seat beside me and Nina, at the back. She took one of T3's seats. I looked her direction hoping our sights would lock but she was wrapped around the English world. She was paying attention to Mr Franks lesson.
Who does that besides me in this class? I that pay attention gets distracted by someone who pays attention? Shit.

I look at Caleb hoping for a prep talk on how he came across the girl. He smirked and did his finger to mean 'later'.

Hello wonderful people, what do you think about this chapter? Leave comments alright, let me have your opinions.
Nina Gilbert is actually Nina Dobrev! I didn't want to use her real name so I used her first name in real life and last name in The Vampire Diaries.
She's a nice girl, you'll like her.

Guys, don't forget to vote for this chapter and share my book. Thanks ;-)
