Mr Smith P.O.V (a.k.a Xander)

 I saw her face and saw her stop as she opened the door half way. Something along that corridor had caught her eye. 

'Ms Turner........'

but before I had time to finish my sentence she flung the door making it smash and ran off. Something had truly upset her to make her start crying.

I ran after her. I tried following where I had seen her shadow pass. I could smell the scent of strawberrry lipgloss and began following it. knowing it belonged to Lizzie.

I walked past the girls toilets and considered opening the doors. I shook my head, she wouldn't have gone there because she would want to be alone. I closed my eyes trying to think when I heard small sobs. I quietly approached the end of the corridor and the sobs became louder. I turned to find myself facing the gym cupboard. I knew she was in there. I flung the door open and my mouth dropped at what I saw.

Her eyes widened. I wasn't going to let someone else do this. I'd already watched someone die because of it. I watched her wrist as blood poured out and I ran towards her. She flinched slightly, she had been crying an aweful lot and her eyes were red and puffy from crying. There was something in her eyes I had seen the other night. It was hurt and loss.

'Give it to me,' I said raising my voice slightly looking her straight in the eye to show my sriousness.

'What are you talkin about?' she said stupidly.

I looked at her for a moment. Damn this girl was stubborn. I took a step closer to her and kneeled down looking at the blood which was sprouting out from her wrist. She watched me catiously. It worked - I kept pretending to observe her hand with one of mine trying to ignore the sparks that I felt. I quickly took out the razor with my other hand and placed it in my pocket.

She lunged at me desperately and hissed like a wild animal.

' I sat down next to her and took my shirt off wrapping it tightly around her wrist to stop the bleeding from the long cut.

Her eyes widened as she looked at my now naked chest but I didn't care. I needed to make sure she was safe. Why was she doing this to herself?

'Like what you see?' I asked her grinning, trying to lighten up the mood.

She rolled her her eyes but smiled back a small smile which made my heart do flips. Gosh, why was this happening? She's my student for heaven's sake!! 

'Let me take you home,' I said calmly.

She protested and got up for a moment only to be falling back down. She'd lost quite a lot of blood. Before she could drop, picked her up bridal style. and carried her to my car.   

I put her in the passenger seat. Thank God there wasn't anyone else outside. 

'Okay so where do you live?' I asked her. 

She gave me directions and I began to feel slightly sick. Shepointed to a white house which had flowers at the front.

'You sure you live there?' I said uneasily.

She looked at me and frowned.

'Listen Mr Smith, I might not be brilliant at Biology but I'm not dumb enough to not know where I live,' she preotested. 

'Call me Xander, Mr Smith makes me sound old and boring,' I said.

'What?' she said

' Call me Xander out of school hours. I don't wanna sound old,' I repeated.
