Unwillingly Separated (Liam Payne)

Chapter 9 (Quiet Girl, Yeah?)

"Gabriella, Come downstairs please!" Christina called and I place my book down and walk downstairs and I stand right in front of her.

"I'll leave you to alone." Christina nodded as she walked away and I look back to make sure she's gone.

"So what did you want?" Mrs. Jackson asked with a smile.

"Who called in for me and my brother?"

"What do you mean?" She asked raising and eyebrow.

"You know exactly what I mean." I said lowering my voice but not to low. "Who called on me and my brother?" I asked again.

"The person who called wanted to be anonymous."

"Don't I deserve to know? My brother and I are split up! The least you can do is tell me." I crossed my arms.

She sighs and rubs the back of her neck. "I believe his name was Grant Chancellor."

I gasp. I can't believe he would do this, yes he might of been trying to help but he could of help by finding us both a home that the parents would take both of us in, or a group home that would take us both.

"When will I be able to see my brother?"

"I don't know if that's gonna happen."

"What do you mean you don't know if that's going to happen? He's my brother I deserve to see him."

"Gabriella, listen he's adopted now he has a new family and he's starting to get use to it, I don't think you should see him just yet at least give it a month or two." She gave me a small smile.

"A month or two!? No I won't give it a month or two I want to see him so he knows I keep my promise I don't want him thinking I left him just my like our mum and dad!" I screamed.

"Calm down.. Okay-"

"I'm not going to calm down, I want to see my brother soon before this month is over!" I yelled and run upstairs to my room and sit on the edge of my bed looking at my picture of me and my brother.

Yes I know it's only been 2 days but 2 days is long when you haven't seen someone who you use to see everyday. Who you take care of, who always made you laugh and have a reason to smile.

"Hey, I heard you yelling downstairs. Are you okay?" My roommate Jasmine asked.

"Yea." I said lifting my cover getting under it and pulls it over me turning the opposite direction from jasmine.

"Okay class, your teacher couldn't be here today so she just left a movie for you guys to watch about chemistry." The substitute said.

"Now I don't care what you do as long as your quiet enough for the people who wanna hear." She looked at everyone and puts the dvd in.

I decided to doodled in my notebook. Does anyone else draw better when they are just doodling but when they try to draw it sucks? I hate that.

"What you doing?" I was snap out my thought looking over seeing Liam smiling at me. He really gotta stop doing that, at least let me finish my though.

"Nothing."

"Looks like something." He chuckles and I just look at him.

"Are you always this shy?" He asked.

"I'm not shy, I just don't wanna talk much, which it seems you don't seem to understand." I rolled my eyes.

"I'm just trying to be nice to you since your new around here." He said.

"Thank you. But no thank you, I don't need no one."

"You know, you make it really hard to be friends with you." He says.

"I'm sorry." Was all I could say.

"Okay ten laps people, Ready. Set.." She blows her whistle and we start to run around the gym since it was snowing outside. Today has been going by pretty fast, most my class I'm starting to get use to and it's not as hard as it seems.

I was finally on my tenth lap and I stop, bending over to catch my breath.I don't really have a problem with running it's just I have to be in the mood for it.

"Wow, your a pretty fast runner." The girl standing next to me said.

"Thanks." I said.

"I'm Ciara by the way, and your Gabriella yeah?" She asked and I nodded. We haven't exactly talk and I don't really know how she knew my name. Because the gym teacher did not introduce me to the class, which I'm not complaining.

"Okay ladies, get change class is over in 5 minutes." Mrs. buckle said.

We all walk to the girls locker room and I go to my locker unlocking my locker and grabs my clothes.

"You must the quiet girl everyone talks about." She said.

"Um, what exactly do they say?" I asked taking of my tank top and shorts.

"Nothing bad, just that you don't talk much and your really pretty but acts like you hate the world." She chuckles.

"I don't." I said putting on my skinny jeans and my shirt and placing my hair in a ponytail.

"You are really pretty though." She smiled.

"Oh.." I said looking up at her and she laughs. Why does everyone seem to laugh at everything I say?

"What?"

"You could say thank you."

"Oh, yeah thanks, sorry." I said grabbing my things.

The bell finally rings for school to be over.

"It was nice talking to you." She smiled.

"You too." I gave her a half smile.
