More Than Expected-A One Direction Fan Fiction {Completed}

Chapter Three xCate

The next day at school again we got yelled at by our first period teacher for wearing Converse and pants. But this time it was both of us.

"She really needs to chill,"I whispered to Alex.

"Yeah, I guess someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today....wait correction. Everyday!"Alex whispered back. We both snickered and were rewarded with glares.

When classes switched I was so happy to be out of that witch's class. Let me tell you that woman is posseessed by the devil. I swear. She is evil. It runs in her veins and I think that where her heart should be is a black hole that sucks up kids happiness. She's horrid. And an awful teacher.

Alex and I walked out to our lockers together.

"So when's the signing?"I asked Alex as I put in my combination. Thank god she had a locker next to me.

"Whenever the concert is. It's the day before te concert I think," she said. I nodded and lifted up on the latch. It didn't open.

"Damn." I said under my breath as I put my knee against the locker and tried it again. Alex laughed. I finally got my locker open. I put my books in the top of the locker and grabbed my next class' books. I made sure I had my writing notebook.

"So you're excited for this whole shibang?"Alex asked.

"Yeah!It's going to be so much fun! You're going too right?"I replied shutting my locker. I adjusted my tie, gaging. I hated it. It always choked me and made choir hard.

"Well if you want me to I will I guess..."she said shrugging. We began to walk down the corridor towards the next class. I walked next to her.

"What do you mean I guess? Alex you have to come with! You did get two of the things right?"

"Yeah I did because I knew you would say something like that. But know that I'm going because I love you and not because it's One Direction."she said glancing at me. Then she blew me a kiss jokingly. I laughed and put my arm around her soulder.

"I'll try to keep that in mind." I saw my next class' door and then I saw him. Dalton. I shuddered involentarily and wrapped both of my arms around my books. I rubbed my hands over my arms as I abruptly stoppeed walking. Several kids walked into me and muttered stuff about getting out of the way.

"Liah? Liah dear are you alright?" Alex asked looking at me. She had stopped several feet in front of me. Let's just say that Dalton is this guy I used to date. And....well I'll put it this way. Things were rocky. Really rocky before we broke up. I mean the two of us dated for three months. The first two and a half months were great. He was really sweet and always so respectful to me and my mum and to Alex. But then he changed....and so we broke up. Not on the best terms either.

"No. No I'm really not. Dammit. Alex it's Dalton. He's coming this way."I said looking at the ground.

"Hey Alex!"Dalton said cheerily. Then he looked at me. I glancd up at him. "Liah."He said with venom in his voice.

"Back off Dalton. Go away."Alex said walking over to my side.

"Aww Liah, is your little friend here defending you?"he asked. I didn't answer. Alex clenched her jaw at being called little. I kept looking at the floor. He grabbed my wrist and squeezed it. Hard.

"Ow!"I said trying to pul my arm away. 

"Leave her alone! Haven't you done enough!?"Alex said ushing him back away from me. I worked up enough courage to say,

"Dalton leave. Just leave me alone. You really have done enough. I can't trust people now because of you. Just go."

"What?" Dalton asked infuriated. "Did you say?"When I didn't answer he said,"Liah."In a low tone.

"Nothing Dalton."I said. The bell rang beckoning us to class. The three of us stood in the middle of the abandoned hall.

"Dalton get to class."Alex said. He snorted.

"Don't tell me what to do."

Another tidbit about Dalton. He's a popular kid. He can get out of trouble easily, just by sucking up to the teachers. Just then a teacher walked down the hall.

"You three. What are you doing?"he said. I didn't recognize the teacher. Must be a new Pree teacher.

"We were just trying to find our classes."Dalton said trying his luck.

"Well hurry up and find them. Your teachers won't be very happy with you."he said and walked down the hall.

"We will sir!"he called after him. Then he glared at us and walked swiftly past us. As he passed me he bumped into me making me drop everything I was carrying. I waited for him to go into his classroom before I got on my knees and started to pick up my books trying not to cry. My hands were shaking so bad I could hardly even pick up a pen.

"Liah you okay?"Alex asked me as she helped me pick up my things. I totally fell apart. Tears started to run down my face and drop onto my books."Liah...."she said wrapping her arms around me. I felt myself shaking uncontrolably.

"H-he r-ruined me. I-I'm never going to be the same."I said through the tears. She helped me to my feet and handed me my things. I took them just wanting to leave. Just wanting to be out of this awful place. I swear Alex can read my mind because she took my hand and we walked towards the courtyard. It was outside and at the front of the school. There weren't any windows looking into the courtyard so as long as there wasn't a class there, we would be alone. The two of us found a bench and sat down on it.

"Have you told anyone besides me?"Alex asked rubbing my back as I calmed down. I shook my head.

"No you're the only one."I said wiping my cheeks. Good thing I didn't wear make-up today. I thought. Alex nodded. "Okay. That's fine if I'm the only one that you want to tell, but honestly have you thought about telling your mum? Or maybe the police?" I smiled a little and nodded.

"I've thought about it, but....I don't know Alex...."I said.

"Hey, you're an incredible girl putting up with a jerk like him. And going through what you've gone through....you're a freaking hero to me."

I rolled my eyes,"You're my friend so you're obligated to say that."

"No it's true."she said with finality. Knowing Alex she wasn't going to argue. I heard the bells ring again and knew that class would be starting in five minuites. I sighed frustratedly. Good thing I had  grabbed my books for my next two classes. It was the last class of the day with my favorite teacher, in my favorite class. Besides choir. Both of us stood up.

"You positive you're okay?"Alex asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I probably look like rubbish though,"I said laughing.

"No more than usual."Alex quipped. I stuck my tounge out at her. We both laughed and she hugged me. Alex was doing quite a bit of hugging which wasn't really usual for her. She's usually blut and hard and edgy. But she was acting all soft and squishy.

"Alex dear, you're being very squishy."I said. She rolled her eyes. If anyone els had told her that she would have punched them lightly in the arm but she never did that to me. I didn't like being touched."We'd better get to class."I said.

"Agreed."Alex said. We walked to our class together of course. Alex was trying to keep a happy conversation going but all I could do was rub my arms as I walked, reliving the horrid memories in my mind.
