Song: Unforgettable - French Montana ft. Swae Lee

Poppys POV:

I arrived at school and everyone stared, seems like they know about my brother.

Sigh

We had 5 minutes until classed strted so we headed off to our lockers.

We entered the doors and I suddenly felt an arm land on my shoulders. I looked up and saw Sam smirking down at me.

"Ugh... What do you want?" I groaned.

"Is there a problem with wanting to see my buddy?"

"Yes" I stated, bluntly. I shrugged his arm off and turned to him as Lorina watched us both with curious eyes.

"I have to go to my locker and then class so see you later alligator!" I shouted over my shoulder as I grabbed Lorinas arm and dragged her to our lockers.

"What was all that about?" She asked. I sighed and told her everything from walking in on him and that slut in detention to the hospital scene to what just happened.

"I ship you too together... I'll have to think of a ship name!" She said excitedly clapping her hands and jumping up and down as we head to our shared class. I immediatly stopped walking and looked at her as if she had lost her mind.

"What, no, I don't like him like that... Have you forgotten who he is?"

She just smirked and pulled me to class, we took our seats just as the bell rang. Our conversation went through my head all class and I couldn't concentrate no matter how hard I tried.

------

The bell rang for lunch and I shot out of my seat as I was starving. I was that hungry I could eat a whole pig!

I put my books in my locker and met up with Lorina at the cantine doors.

We got in the line for lunch and I got lasagna with salad and a bottle of water. Lorina got Pasta and a ham sandwich with a can of coke. We sat at our usual table, talking about what popcorn to have tonight, an everyday type of thing you know. When Sam freaking Ford sat in the seat next to me and Chase fudging Santiago sat next to Lorina, squishing me and Lorina together. The whole cafeteria went silent as he put his arm around me.

"You can all go back to your gossiping now!" Sam shouted at the top of his voice. The whole cafeteria started talking again.

"Will you ever leave me alone?" I groaned as I continued to eat my food.

"Nope" He said, popping the P.

"Hey Poppy, I have heard a lot about you." He said, winking at Sam.

"Nice to know I am popular in your conversations" I said, sarcastically as I finished drinking my water, then pushed my tray away from me as I waited for Lorina to finish.

"I am Chase Santiago, unfortunatly this douchebags best friend." He said gesturing to Sam at the end.

I laughed already knowing me and Chase are gonna become good friends.

"I am Poppy Light as you probably already know."

"Who is this pretty lady?" Chase said gesturing to Lorina. I shook my head as I said:

"This is my best friend Lorina Heraulte"

"Hi" She said and OMG was she ... BLUSHING!!!!!!! Looks like someone has a crush!

"Hey" Chase nodded, smiling at her.

"Okay, so the reason we came over here was to ask you or tell you that we have decided to eat lunch with you two everyday." He said, smiling like he just won an award. Before I could even reply the doors to the cafeteria shot open and everyone went silent as Richelle Spencer and her minions stalked over. I was surprised they didn't trip over in the heels they were in, or their extra mini skirts didn't rip at the seams.

"You!" She pointed her finger at me, accusingly.

"Me?" I said, gesturing to myself. I had never actually talked to Richelle properly before but I guess there was a first for everything.

"Sam, what are you doing sat at this table with the morons?" She demanded, her hands on her hips as she smiled fakely, showing off her perfect white teeth. She was obviously ignoring me after I didn't show her that I was scared of her.

"These are my friends, so I would appreciate it if you didn't call them things that they clearly aren't." Sam said tighting his arm around my shoulders as she took a step closer.

"These... creatures... aren't your friends, we are!" She said, pointing at the popular group.

"No they aren't creatures and you lot aren't true friends!" Making everyone gasp.

"But babe, I am your girlfriend you are suppose to listen to me!" She pratically screeched.

"Don't call me babe, and you are NOT my girlfriend and never will be and even if you were I still wouldn't listen to you" Sam shot right back at her. Making some people cheer at the fact that she was getting embarrassed. I would feel bad for her but lets be honest she had it coming.

She just huffed and stalked, almost tripping over, out of the cafeteria with her minions scurrying after her.

I just looked at him and went "High Five!" I gave him a high five and we carried on as if we were all old friends catching up.

As always vote, comment and share.

I would also appreciate it if you could tell me if there are any mistakes or things I could make better!
