You love

Chapter 4

Tuesday 5th december
Two days until new york
I didn't see Ella at all yesterday. she may be avoiding me but who could blame her i had just told her that i was going to miss out on our three year anniversary. Who wouldn't act the same way. Sitting in the same seat i had been yesterday i can not help but admire the painting again, the octupusses dark shades or green and orange and the bright shade of red used on the heart. The painting called out to me it was as if it was trying to tell him that no matter how bad things seemed with Ella we would make it through and come out on the other side better then before.
"Hey there again" someone says form Behind me. I turn to find Josie walking towards me with her iced drink. She takes a seat in front of me and rest her heels on the low wooden table letting out a deep breath like she had been walking around all day.
"Hey" i say with enfisis.
"Did you talk to Ella yesterday, she didn't text me all day" i ask to keep the convication moving.
"Yeah she's still working in the Bradley project" trying my hardest not to react at his name but Josie sees straight through the act and giggles like a school girl. Ella and Josie had only been friends since September, She was new to the college and Ella like the loving person she is decided to take her under her wing.
"Nice jumper, what is that a dog" she says looking dead serious.
"What, it's a bear can't you tell" i correct her. She is wearing a pair of high wasted blue jeans with the legs  rolled up exposing her ankles and a white t-shirt which is tucked in to her jeans. Her dark eyes matching her skin perfectly.
"So what are you doing your winter project on Josie, Debbie George" i say in a mocking tone. Debbie George was another youtuber that Ella was totally in love with, not as much as Bradley  no he was number one but Debbie was deffently in Ella's top five All Time Favourites.
"Totally or maybe even Nicholas" she says and we began laughing once more.
"What the fuck is this" Ella says storming over with a hand placed on her right hip and Laura at her side looking like the devil was in her eyes.
"Actully you know what I don't even care, you stupid little slut" and at that moment she rips  the lid off of her freshly made coffee and time slows down. Josie knew what was about to happen but had no time to defend herself. The lid hits the ground and droplets of coffee bounce into the air. Ella lunges her arm forward sending the piping hot coffee across the table. Josie puts her hands up to protect her face from the hot liquid. I see Laura's face drop from the corner of my eye as i jump from my seat and in to the line of fire. A split second later and my left hand takes most of the liquid scolding it, Josie lowers her hands revealing a look in her eyes a look of insanity the hot liquid only landing on her legs. She stands from her seat and runs at Ella her arms streatched out from her body and her fingers bent, she jumps on Ella scratching at her face with her finger nails.the café arupts in shouts and cheers as people begin to huddle around the fight like blood thirsty wolves that haven't eaten in years.
"Rip her weve of her head" an oversized boy shouts who couldn't of been any older then sixteen. I shake the exess coffee from my hand and grab josie around her waste and using all of my strength to pull her away from Ella. She sees her moment and jumps from the ground, a deep scratch under her eye trickling with blood she curls her hand into a fist and brings it down hard on Josie's chin. I throw her on the seat behind me and pushe Ella backwards away from me.
"What the he'll is wrong with you, you just attacked one of your best friends and why becuase your pissed at me" i shout at her making sure that the still growing crowd hears every word.
"She attacked me first ask anyone" she says trying to sound innocent as she wipes the blood from under her eye. I shake my head and turns away from her to check on Josie.
"Don't turn away from me" Ella screams slamming her fist into my back with incredible force. A loud gasp of air fills the room every person making The same noise. The pain radiates up my spine as i turns back to face her my heart brakes just like the painting on the wall. Being ripped apart only this time there was no one there to fight, no one there to push it back together.
"Oh my God, I'm so sorry Sam, I didnt" cutting her off.
"Yes you did ella"
"Sam I won't do it again I promise" she says begging for my forgiveness. I cross my arms nervously.
"Leave"
"But sam" she cries
"Just leave" i snap at her and i hear her sobbing oh my god as she walks away. The crowd starts to dispatch going back to their own things still keeping their eyes fixed on me and Josie wanting to catch every detail so that they could run along and gossip to their friends layer on.
Josie looks like how i feel. Upset, broken hearted betrayed. I sit down in the seat next to her and gently rotate her face so that she is now looking up at me.
"Are you okay" i ask her as tears begin to role down her face. I look around everyone is still starting, grate something else for them to go and gossip about. Ella had no right taking out her anger and frustration on Josie no right at all, even Laura looked murtafide when Ella dashed her drink at her and even more so when she brought her fist down on my back. grabbing Josie's handbag from the coffee table and grabbing her hand helping her up.
"Come on let's get you to the nurse"

Twenty minutes late to lesson and Josie returns to The Sitting Area where i am sitting out side of the nurse's office with a possible concussion and strict orders not to sleep in until bed time.
"Hey Josie, look I'm so sorry for what Ella did, I've never seen her like that before"
"Don't apaoagise, you didn't try to burn my fave off with a cup of coffee, or did you my memories a little over the place" at first i thinks she is serious but then i see the small grin on her face. I walk her back to her next lesson leaving her at the end of the hallways,it probably wouldn't be the best idea if Ella do Soor me escourting Josie to lesson who knows what she might do grab one of the prop knives from the table and jam it in to her eye until she stoped shaking. My body shivers. I push the thought out of my head and start towards the exit of the block making my way to my lesson breeds and grooming, how much fun last week's lesson consisted of memorizing thirty different dog breeds, this week, probably cats.
I blow out a big breath as i arrive outside of the class room. I walk in and instantly Mr Clegg says
"Can you wait outside please" yeah sure I will stand in the hallway and make myself even later for your lesson, i never got why teachers made you stand outside. Like okay you ruin my education for me and while your at it Mr Clegg do you want to take my exams for me.
The door takes its time to close and by the time it finally does close Mr Clegg opens it again walking out with an attitude, he always had a chip on his shoulder it was probably down to the fact that he was young and handsom and all the girls wanted him and all the boys wanted to be him, everyone but me of course. He was just as worse as Ella's stupid youtubers.
"Why are you late sam" at least his attitude doesn't show in his voice.
"Somthing happened in the café and I had to take my friend to the nurse's office" i say to him the whole time he stairs down at his watch. He is wearing a tatty blue waist coat that looks like had been dyed in the wash.
"Oh I see, it's all they have been talking about" he says jabbing his thumb towards the door.
Oh grate i think to myself here comes a bunch of questions that i would rather not answer. As i walk into the room everyone go's silent all eyes glued on me i takes a deep breath and then take my seat at the back of the room.
