Being Simon Cowell's Niece

Brave

I walked down the school hallway, dreading the day already. I headed to my first class, Human Anatomy. I walked in and sat in my seat, waiting for my class mates to file in. While I waited, I quickly checked my phone, seeing that I got a couple of texts.

Demi: Have a great day! Stay strong! <3

Louis: Have a great day love! The boys say hi! I'll see you later! x.

I smiled to myself, blushing as I read Louis' texts. I put my phone away and made sure that it was on silent so that way it wouldn't go off in class.

When the clock hit 8:20, everyone sat in their seats. All except for my worst enemy, Roxanne. It was the usual thing every single day. She'd walk in late, make up some lame excuse, and then sit down. She was like the Regina George of the school, only worse in my opinion. She was the ring leader in everything. And for some unknown reason, I was her target.

"Can anyone explain to me what platelets are?" Mr.Shea asked.

I looked around the room. Nobody raised their hand. I raised my hand.

"Yes, Lilly?"

"Platelets are a type of blood cell that help stop the bleeding." I said.

"Excellent!" he said, and wrote it down on the board. I smiled to myself.

"Nerd." I heard someone say. Everyone's head turned towards the door. Roxanne, of course. Everyone laughed in agreement as I slid down a little in my chair.

"Now class,stop it. Roxanne, take your seat." Mr.Shea told her. Roxanne walked past me, bumping into me on her way.

"Prick." She said.

"Bitch." I said, under my breath. The rest of the class and other classes droned on.

*Lunch bell rings*

I headed to the bathroom. I hated staying in the cafeteria, it was the number one place to be targeted. We couldn't walk around the school, stay in other classes, or eat in our car, so my only way out of the cafeteria was the bathroom.

I slid my back down the wall of the bathroom and sat down. People barely came in here. I forgot to pack my lunch, so there was no use of eating, or die trying by going to the cafeteria. Instead, I checked my phone again.

Louis: Hey, Demi and I are bringing your lunch to you! Can't wait to see you!

No no no no no no no. They can't show up here!

His text was sent at 12:19 pm and it was now 12:35. They would be here any minute. I got up and ran to the front office, seeing both Demi and Louis walking in the front door.

I took the bag out of his hand. "Thanks guys! Gotta go!" I said, turning around.

"Lilly! Slow down! We came to eat lunch with you." Louis said, grabbing my shoulder.

I looked at Demi with pleading eyes, but she gave no response.

"I'll go get us guest passes." Louis said, walking in the front office.

I looked at Demi. "Why?" was all I could say.

"Lilly, I want to help you, and Louis wanted to come see you. Please just let us be here for you." She said.

Louis walked back out, handing Demi a guest pass sticker.

"Very well." I said, turning around, heading to the cafeteria. The two followed behind me. The walk to the cafeteria seemed faster than usual, probably becaus of how nervous I was.

When I walked in with two popstars behind me, everyone crowded them, pushing me against a wall. I couldn't see Demi and Louis anymore, there were way too many people.

"Hey! Shut up and back off!" Roxanne screamed. Everyone backed off as I saw her way make her way through the crowd. I followed her.

"They're with me." She said, making everyone back up a little bit.

"Um no bitch, we aren't. We're with Lilly. Lilly Cowell." Demi said to her. I heard Roxanne growl.

"That bitch?" Roxanne, asked pointing to me. I wanted to run, and hide, but I didn't. Instead, I did the complete opposite.

"Yes, they're with me. And you can go f*** off Roxanne." I yelled at her.

"Ohhhh." Everyone yelled. Demi came over and gave me a hug, as well did Louis. Everyone slowly started backing off and returned eating their lunch.

"That was brave of you." Demi said.

"Thanks." I replied, smiling.

The three of us walked over to a lunch table and started eating.
