Hey, sorry for the long wait, i dont really like this chapter, it's kind of a filler, i trying to get back into writing this story after so long. But i tried, so please give me feedback!! Thanks, love you all :)

The next day, when I arrived to school, I headed straight to the gym, hurrying since I was already late. As I hurriedly changed into my horrid blue gym uniform, I noticed someone else in the changing room; It was Louis. He was sitting on a bench staring off into space, so I decided that now was my chance to talk to him.

I walked to him and stopped a few steps away, calling out to him softly. “Louis?”

His head snapped to me and when his eyes landed on me he gasped, standing up and backing into the wall, surveying me with frightened eyes.

I immediately put my hands up in a surrendering fashion, whispering. “Hey, don’t worry, I won’t hurt you”

He muttered something that sounded like ‘They all say that’ before he ran out the door quickly. I shouted for him, but he was already gone. I sighed and finished changing, before noticing that he ran out to the gym.

I can still see him!

I hurried out of the door and looked around the room, trying to spot him, but a loud voice stopped me.

‘Why are you late, my youthful student?!”

I turned to the voice and in front of me stood a tall man with huge eyebrows, a horrid bowl haircut, and the ugliest green spandex I had ever seen.  

I awkwardly rubbed the back of my neck, mumbling. “I woke up late…”

He suddenly struck a weird pose and exclaimed. “It is alright, the youth needs all the rest it can get to ensure their youthfulness!!”

I stared at him with wide eyes, unsure what to do now. Luckily, Niall came to my rescue, running to me and dragging me off to the side. As soon as we were out of earshot, I whispered urgently, still looking at the green spandex wearing man. “What is that?”

He laughed loudly and looked over at the man, laughing harder as he saw him ranting on about youthfulness. “That’s Guy, he’s the gym teacher. He is very…how to say…easily excited when it comes to” He made air quotes “Youthfulness as he calls it. But don’t worry, he’s really not a bad guy” I nodded, still watching him, until I remembered Louis.

“I saw Louis in the locker room, do you know where he went?”

Nialls smile dropped and he nodded, gesturing to the other side of the room. I looked and that’s where I saw him, standing in the corner of the gym, looking at anyone getting close, shrinking when someone would move too fast or violently.

I watched with sad eyes, heart breaking at the site, until I saw Guy approaching Louis.

Oh no, he’s too spastic! He’s gonna terrify him!

And as I thought,  Guy practically bounced over to Louis, before shouting about youthfulness and striking a pose with a fist in the air. Louis flinched hard and ran to the locker room as the fist went in the air.

I could see everyone in the room glare at Guy, who didn’t even seem to notice. I ran after Louis, determined to actually talk to him this time. Forgetting about the spandex monster of a teacher, I burst through the door, regretting it right away as I saw the newly huddled ball in the corner of the room.

“L-Louis?” I whispered, and the only response I got was a whimper.

I approached slowly and crouched down next to him. Instantly, when I got close enough, he stood up and clutched his hair, pulling roughly at it, mumbling things under his breath, before rushing out the door. I watched sadly as he left, sighing and leaning back against the wall.

This isn’t going to be as easy as I thought.
