The Unexpected Couple

Chapter Eight Continued

I'm just going to make this update a continuation of the last one because I was in a hurry and it was crazy short! Enjoy!!

I pull into the parking lot of Mcdonald's and drive into the drive-thru. We all order Audrey and I both getting frappes and McDoubles and Niall getting a whole meal. I pull back into the parking lot of school about five minutes before the lunch bell rings and walk into the cafeteria to say hi to all of my other friends. I look around the room for them and find them at a table in the middle this time. I don't understand why we don't sit at the same table every day like we did at my old school. 

I sneak up behind them holding my finger to my lips to tell the people who spotted me not to say anything. I position myself behind Louis and smirk at the others.

"AH!" I say tapping his shoulders at the same time. Louis squeals and jumps a little whipping his head around and furrowing his eyebrows when he sees its me. I burst out laughing and so does everyone else.

"It's not funny." He says his cheeks coloring which makes me laugh harder. The bell rings and he stomps away. 

"Louis wait! Come on." I say jogging after him. I run in front of him and stop copying his movements so he can't get around me. "Hey. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you mad." He smiles and shrugs. 

"It's alright I was just pretend mad anyways. See you at soccer after school!" He says before walking away. I wave at him and shake my head slightly before walking in the direction of my class. I turn the corner of the hallway and run into a body. I rub my forehead where it hit the person and look up into the eyes of Liam. My eyes go wide and I sigh. 

"Hi." He says. I just nod in acknowledgement. Now its his turn to sigh. "Look I'm sorry for this morning." I meet his eyes after he says this.

"Really you are?" I ask and he nods. "Because it didn't seem like you were this morning when you were trying to humiliate me in front of my friends." He hangs his head a little.

"I only did it to-" He starts but I stop him. 

"I don't care why you did it. I don't want to talk about it." I say. I start to walk away but he grabs one of my wrists in his hand. 

"Don't you dare walk away from me." He spits. I try and wrestle my wrist free but he tightens his grip and shoves me up against a locker. 

"Liam GET OFF!!" I yell. He glares at me and opens his mouth to say something but another voice cuts him off.

"Rain? Are you okay?" The voice says. I turn my head to the sound and see Connor moving towards us. Liam steps away from me and glares at Connor.

"Who the hell are you?" He spits. 

"Connor Franta. Who the hell are you?" He asks not one bit intimidated. I watch the two boys go back and forth calling each other all of the dirty names in the book. I stand-by until I see Connor roll up his sleeves step forward. I walk in between the two holding them both at an arm's length. 

"Stop." I say and Connor immediately backs down. 

"Are you okay?" He asks and I nod but Liam snorts. We both glare at him and I feel Connor tense but he stays away. 

"I'm fine." I say. He nods. 

"Let's go to class." He says grabbing my hand and lacing our fingers together. We walk away hand in hand and I can practically feel the anger radiating off of Liam when he looks at our hands. We turn the corner and Connor drops my hand. "Sorry. I just wanted to piss him off and I knew doing that would have that effect on him." He says in a rush and I smile. 

"Its alright." I say. He lets out a breath.

"Good. So he really like you I can tell. How long has he known you?" 

"Since yesterday." His eyes go wide.

"Seriously?" I nod. "Damn. You would think he knew you for years with that attitude. I laugh as we walk into class late together.
