DEMI'S POV

I was walking on the hallway my face held high. No matter what they call me or what they think I am it won't affect me cause I know I didn't do anything... I didn't do such thing. Even if I try my best to defend me people will still judge me for what I am not. I continued to walk surpassing all these people calling me names. I wanted to shout at them, get angry at them but I know I am much more than that. As I near the exit of the building a group of students blocked my way. They were staring at me with grins plastered on their face. 

" Excuse me " I said trying to get my way through them but instead of moving away, one of them pushed me hard. I stumbled back and hit the lockers. I groaned in pain. A girl with a snake tattoo on her wrist pulled me up and shove me in the lockers. People were just staring, instead of helping. Others were taking videos and photos of us. 

" She deserve it " one of the audience speak up and all of her friends nod agreeing with her judgement. 

" What's wrong with you ?! " I snapped trying to shove her away but she was way bigger than me. Her height is as twice as mine and her body is absolutely thicker and leaner. She smirked and let go of my collar. I looked at them and saw them holding something in their hands. Eggs... I thought it only happens in the movies. I prepared myself. This is gonna be painful. I shut my eyes close and prepared myself to be hit. I felt nothing then I heard gasps. 

I opened my eyes and saw Harry's body covering mine. His eyes met mine and my knees got weak. He is so damn fine! He smiled at me. It was the first time that I ever saw him smile ever since I met him. He turn his attention away from me bringing me back to reality. He focused his attention on the guy who was supposed to hit me with an egg but hitting Harry instead. His facial expression changes and he was so scared. Just a while ago, I was his prey but now he was. Harry look at him sternly. 

" I'm sorrry! I'm so sorrry. It won't happen again. You wo...wooon't see me eeever. " he stuttered and run. Then Harry turn his attention on his group they all step back and run. I was about to say thank you but he left without saying a word. Students were surprised and so was I. I saw Niall standing a few meters from me with his group. He was looking sternly at me while the others looked surprise. I grab my bag then walked away. 

Finally it is the last subject. Ever since Harry did that, no one dared to bother me or call me names. My heart flutter at the thought of him protecting me. He was so kind but he was intriguing though. Why did he do that? I wanted to thank him for doing that but how? I don't see him much often and if ever I do he was with that blonde jerk. 

We are finally dismissed and I went out of the room and went to my locker. I opened my locker, placed my books inside then grab my uniform. My shift starts at 8 and it's 3 in the afternoon. Sel will be dismissed at 7 so that means I can do whatever I want. I decided to walk around the campus. Since my stay here I don't think I have ever explore the whole campus. Sel toured me once but she only showed me the basic places like where should you go if you need to do this or do that. 

As I was walking around I've noticed a staircase leading to the rooftop. Perfect! After all I need a break from all the dramas that happened this morning. I opened the door the warm breeze welcoming me. It was empty. I feel so frustrated by how people treat me this morning. I wanted to let my anger out. I took a deep breath and 

" I didn't do anything wrong with all of you! How could you treat me so badly! Is this all because of that blonde jerk?! You can have him! You can all have him! Do you really think I would go out with him? No i would never. I am not stupid to fall in love with a guy who treats other people like his slaves. I don't know what you see in them? They look like a bunch of stupid chickens who hide behind their parent's money! " I shouted at the top of my lungs. 

" I hate you! " I shouted one last time then tried to catch my breath. I let out a sigh. It feels relaxing.

" Are you done? I don't want to be rude but you were in my secret place. You were standing on my spot. " 

" Oops Sorry " I replied then move away a little.

" How long have you been here? " I asked. I'm a bit embarrass of myself.

" Since that time when you were shouting at people who don't even seem to hear you ." he replied focusing his attention straight ahead.

" I'm sorry for being in your  hideout and for shouting. " I said then looked at him. 

" I also want to... " 

" ssshh " he said then closed his eyes. His breathing calm and slow. 

" Can I stay here?" I asked my voice low.

" Sure as long as you stay silent. " he replied.
