Gilbert's POV
"The freak and her prince charming." said Billy.
"Ugly little redhead." said one of his friends.
"When he said that she was his girlfriend. I thought he meant. A girl that is his friend, not someone that he goes out with. For a guy this good looking, he sure has a bad taste." said Josie.
I looked at Anne and I noticed that she was slowly trying to escape and fall into her imagination. Which only lead on her walking away. I tighten my hold on her waist and kissed her forehead. It seems that, this brought her back. She turned and made eye contact with me and I could see that she was slowly begging me to let go of her, so she could leave. I shook my head and kissed her on her left cheek.
I let go of the hug, but instantly held her left hand with my right one.
"Listen up. We all know that I can end all of you with my pinky. So, here's the thing. You can insult me all you want, but if I hear that any of you said anything disrespectful towards MY Anne. I want you to know, that I won't be understanding like you think or sweet. My priority is my angel... " I said and pointed at Anne."I couldn't care less what all of you think of me."
"He is dating a freak." said Billy, chuckling.
Then, I lost it.
I let go of Anne's hand and went towards him. He took a step back in fear but he was trying to hide it. I held his t-shirt in my palm and looked at him dead in the eyes.
"You asked for it."
Right when I was about to punch him. I felt somebody hugging me from behind. I heard sobs, my little Anne's sobs.
"I know you care and I love you for it. But, don't do this. Please." and she held my tighter.
I looked at her helplessly hugging me and looked back at Billy.
"This is a warning." and let go of his t-shirt and turned towards Anne, hugging her back.
"Let's talk outside." I whispered as we walked outside of the classroom.
"Hey. Where do you think you're going?" said Mr Philips.
I was about to explain when Anne pulled me towards her and said.
"Don't bother."
I quietly nodded and continued walking with her, until we reached a small place.
We walked inside and I was in awe in what I was seeing. I looked at Anne and she had a wide smile on her face. But then, she turned and looked at me... That's when her face got serious.
"Let's sit." suggested Anne and I sat next to her on the ground.
"Today... What happened between you and Billy shouldn't have happened. I really am thankful that I have someone like you. Who cares so much about someone like me. But, don't think that I don't know."
"You don't know about what?" I asked, starting to get worried that she had found out.
"You told me that you wanted to go out with the guys yesterday. When you came back. Billy's right eye was red."
