Niall's P.O.V:

 After everything calmed down and the house, and I had dryed off from Courtney pushing me into the pool, we ordered some pizza for dinner. I ordered two pizzas just for me and Courtney. The others got two to share between them. I got a simple peperonie pizza, while Courtney got the meat lovers pizza, which had 6 different meats, pineapple, and extra cheese. The girl could eat. I was shocked when she ate the whole pizza. The little girl downed it in about a half an hour. After about an hour, The boys, Courtney, Hannahh, Tia, and I, decided to go back to Courtney's for the night. As soon as we all got in bed,  everyone fell right to sleep. At least, I did. I was knackackered.

 I woke up to clanking noises comming from the basement. I think I was the only one up, so I went down to Courtney's basement to see what was up. It was Courtney. She was working out on an ab glider, her face was red, and she was scowling in consentration. she had sweat dripping down her face. She hadn't seen me yet.

 "300, 301..." I heard her mutter under her breath. Was that how many reps she'd done? This couldn't be healthy. I walked down the stairs.

 "Courtney?" I said, as she looked up at me. "How long have you been doing this?" I gestured towards the ab machine.

 She looked at the clock. It was about 10 a.m. "About 3 hours straight. I have to burn off all that crap I ate last night. I'm fat as it is." She mumbled the last part. She thought she was fat?? She had curves, but wasn't fat in any way!

 "You are not! Now get off this machine and talk to me." I said pointing at a couch in the corrner. She reluctantly sat down. "Why do you think your fat?" I asked her, worried.

 "I-I-I had one of the dreams again." She stuttered speedily, not waiting to let me ask. "He-he was their again. We were on the buss. He was taunting me and calling me fat and ugly. He said I was worthless." She looked like she was about to cry.

 "Who?" I asked warily, gussing it was the boy who had bullied her in grade school.

  "A-A-Adem." She said quietly, looking down.

  "Well I'm here now, and Adem won't hurt you again." I said, rubbing her hand. She just looked at me hopefully. We sat like that for a bit untill the others started to wake up. Courtney ran upstairs to make breakfast. I followed, trying to comprehend what just happened.

 Courtney's P.o.V:

  "Stay here for a sec, love. I'm going to get our tickets." Niall said he ran up to the outdoor ticket booth at the movie theater. I was a few yards away, leaning aganst a wall. Niall waited in the long line to get tickets to see the new 'Harry Potter'. I was lost in thought when I saw a familar figure aproach me. Oh no. I hadn't seen him in a year and a half. I hoped I never would have to again.

 "Well, well, well," Adem said creepily as he approached me, his eyes looking me up and down creepily, I shivered. "isn't it the fat litte b!^&h, from 4th grade, who suddenly turned hot." I cringed at the insult/complement.

 "Leave me alone, you a--hole." I managed to get out, suprisingly brave sounding. I lookedat Niall. He hadn't seen yet.

 Adem got closer, too close. "Whoah their babe. Somebody's still got a little grudge, from being told the truth!" He stroked my face. Creeper.

 "Grudge?!" I said raising my voice. People near by began to notice. Niallwas still to far away to hear. "You made poor little 10 year-old me go through utter h-ll!" He just chuckled evily and came closer corrnering me.

  "Why don't you forget that, and come back to my place with me?" He asked getting WAY to close. Niall saw now and was on his way over. It was still a bit of a walk. I just shook my head 'no' in reply. He started to grab my wrist and pull me away. My instincs kicked in. I kicked kim straight in the groin, for a girl that can do an eagle and has hated someone for so long, it was hard. When he doubled over, I punched him straight in the face. Niall reached me, just as Adems face shot up, red and angry.

 Who's this?" Niall said putting his arm protectivly around my waist.

 "Adem." was all I had to say, and Niall got angry. Adem lunged at me and I slapped him, giving Niall a second to react. Niallpunched him hard in the face and knocked him out cold. We ran into the theater to watch the movie, leaving Adem. I'll sound horrible for this, but I diddn't feel a single shred of guilt. As the movie started, I curled up as close as I could to Niall, in the weird theater seats. He seamed upset still, even though I told him I was ok.

 "Niall," I whispered.

 "Ya?" He replied back in a similar hushed tone.

 "Thank-you." I whispered back just before he crashed his lips into mune forsefully. We had noticed, when we entered, that the youngest people in the small theater, were probably 16, and we were in the verry back, so we diddn't care who saw. We were like this for most of the movie. It got pretty intense, but I don't think anybody noticed us though. Finally, when the movie was over we headed back to my house. Tia, Hannahh, and I had to get ready for the football tournament, which started tomarrow, and we were facing our schools' arch nemisis, Ontario. The three of us practicedin the back yard, the guys watched of course, ironed our uniformes, and flat ironed Tia's hair. Like I said before, that took awile, and we had to be up early. The guys were comming to watch the game, and see the dance, but we were having them all wear sunglasses and hats, so nobody freeked out and saw them.

 We woke up the next morning, at 7 am. I had to practically drag EVERYONE, except the girls and Liam, out of bed. I ran into the bathroom, and threw my uniform on, put on my glittery green eyeshadow and other makeup, put on my deoderant, tslipped my feet into my cheer shoes, grabbed my mega phone and pom-poms, and ran down to the kitchen to see how the others were doing. Nialls eyes got wide when he saw me, and I quickly kissed him on the lips. The game was at Ontario H.S. In the belly of the beast. It was held their because they had the biggest stadum of all. They were one of the richer schools, and thought little of Madison students. Theirs a rivalry between our football team? Well their was an even bigger one between our cheer squads. (A.N- Just to clarify, I mean Football as in like, uh, Rugby i think. Not football as in soccer.) They thought we were just dirt hilbillies, because our town was so small, and their school was rich because it got money from all the stores and resturants around it. Ontario was the main shopping epicenter, within 20 miles of Madison.In shorter terms, they thought we were scum.

 This'll be intresting, I thought as we made the drive to the High School. The guys followed us in their car.
