Started with a,"Will you help me?"

Chapter 6

I ran up to my room, sat on my bed and cried for hours. My mom called my name numerous times for dinner, but I didn't want to see her. I mean, she was the one who made my dad leave and no custody what so ever. Finally Andrew came up and knocked on my door. "Sis, I brought you some pizza considering you don't want to eat downstairs." He said softly. "Come in and close the door on your way out." I informed him. "Oh," I said as he started to leave. "Thank you." I said as I gave him a warm smile. He gave me one back and was gone.

I decided I wanted to go take a walk so I decided to take our dog, Becker, with me. Shortly after I walked downstairs I heard my mom talking on the phone. "No, she's just really depressed and I think Jack and my divorce are the cause of it." She said quietly. She's damn right the divorce is the cause of it! I grabbed the leash and walked outside.

I got about 6 blocks down the street and I saw two people fist fighting in an alley. One looked at me, then the other looked at me. Except the second one to look at me was the one and only, Luke Hemmings. "Sophie?!" He said. I ran. Becker and I ran as fast and as far as we could while I heard Luke shouting my name over and over again.

Once I reached the end of the neighborhood, I felt a tug on my arm. I turned around and saw Luke. "Sophie! You have to listen to me!" He said out of breath."Luke! What the hell were you thinking?! You can't just beat people up in an alley!" I shouted at him. "Ok fine I know but I have a damn good reason!" He said looking sure of it. " Explain." I demanded. " Ok so he goes to our school and he saw you and he thought you were a virgin and so he was saying all this stuff about how he's goona convince you to have sex with him and if you don't want to then he was gonna rape you and I can't just stand there and listen to it so I asked him to meet up with me later and I was like let's take a walk and so we came by the alley and I pushed him in and then about 5 minutes later you showed up..." He said quickly. " Oh my god." was all I said. I know I shoud be grateful that he did something like that but I am kinda pissed because he doesn't really need to get up all in my buisness. I mean all the stuff of me friendly earlier, that was an act cause I didn't really know him I guess, and I still don't really know him but I mean now that I know he fought a guy over me and I've heard he just fights people for not even the greatest reasons anyway, I don't think I can really be friends with someone like that I mean it's not really my style.... at all.

"Ok Luke I know your trying to help me and stuff and protect me or whatever but I don't want your help! I don't even really want to be friends ok! Your just not someone that I can see myself hanging out with!" I said walking off back home, when I heard him shout back. "You think I'm doing this to protect you?! You think I actually care about you?!" Ouch. That hurt. I mean I know I don't like him really but still, for anyone something like that usually would hurt. "Then why did you say you fought him cause he wanted to have sex with me?!" I asked kind of furiously. "Well guess what! I lied! He didn't want to have sex with you! He wanted to have sex with Alle!" He shouted beyond pissed. Um Excuse me? Did he just seriousl say he was protecting that little whore?! "I thought you were gonna help me get revenge on her because of what she did to Cameron?!" I was also now beyond pissed. "Well guess what! I was the one she cheated on him with!" He spat.

I just looked at him with a shocked expression. I can't believe what I just heard, but sadly, at the same time I can believe it easily. "Well then." I said shyly. "Um I'll just get going then." I said turning around and slowly started walking away as if I had just seen someone being murdered. "Becker! Come on boy!" I yelled to Becker while he was sniffing Luke's leg. He ran to me instantly. "Oh Luke, don't bother talking to me, ever." I shouted to him. He stood there with the most shocked expression I have ever seen and then said,"Fine, I wouldn't even bother talking to you! I don't even know why I talked to you in the first place!"

Ouch. That hurt.............................. a little.
