Vulnerable (Harry Styles Fanfic)

Ch. 20

"Don't you know you what staying on your turf means?" Keith questioned as he moved away from us, towards the center.

"Don't you know that you shouldn't mess with us?" Asked a tall blond, broad guy that walked in front of us towards him.

"If someone from our side messes with you, that ain't our fault. You find that guy and you get him back and leave the rest of us alone. This whole wanting a final rumble before you nerds go back to school thing is stupid! You just want nothing but trouble!"

"We don't want any rumble."

"Then why are you here?"

"Just came to warn you, telling you that unless there's something that happens between one of our guys and yours again, then that's when we'll be back, to settle things."

"What?! I just said that that would be their problem and not ours."

"No, that's not the way it works." The blond starts turning around to walk back to his group of four friends and turns back to face all of us once more. "And tell your friend right there," he points to me. "To stay away from Amelia."

A few of the guys look at my direction before turning their heads to watch the guy and his friends walk back to their cars and leave.

"Harry..."

" It's not like I'm messing with them by being with her right?" I say frustrated.

"We know, it's just that we don't want trouble with them and you know that. Please just be careful" Keith orders.

"I will. I don't want trouble with them either. Trust me." I turn opposite, away from the group and start heading anywhere but here basically. This whole thing was pointless. These stupid rich kids always wanting to cause more problems and everyone telling me to keep my head up. I'm just glad there wasn't any fighting tonight, and maybe I could focus on finding Smiths man who was responsible for Chris. Especially now since all these groups go back to school on Tuesday, that way their will be no interruptions.

Amelia's P.O.V.

This day was finally here, but as much as I've been waiting for this day when I'm finally a senior, it wasn't exciting now as I got out of bed turning the alarm clock off. I still have all these ten months before I graduate and leave high school and take off, to god knows where. Julia must be more delighted, since I hear a bunch of noise coming from downstairs.

I picked out my clothes last night, so that's all taken care of and I quickly head to the bathroom to shower and get ready. By the time I'm fully clean, and dressed, I look over at the clock and make sure I have enough time, which I do. After I do my makeup I get my bag and books ready and head downstairs to find Julia over the stove, removing the pancakes and setting them on the plates at the table.

"Mornin' " I say.

"Good morning. Eat up because you have a full day ahead of you." She chirps as she gets the orange juice from the fridge. When she finally sits down at the table with me, she takes a moment, before looking back. "Remember what I told you right? About focusing only on school, and making sure you stay at the top."

"Yeah, I remember."

"I'm serious Amelia, this is important and you know that. No fooling around." She lectures me. "This is your final year, and after this, college. You've already gotten all these forms and letters, asking for you. Scholarships will be falling right in front of you at your feet, if you stick to those good grades that they want to see."

"Julia, I get it. Obviously college is important, I know."

The car ride to school is quiet, and I don't want to say anything just in case I'm lectured again. When we get there the buses are already pulling up and cars are dropping off people. I see all the familiar faces,many new ones and look around hoping I see any one of my friends.
