Lennys POV*
At reccess and lunch i kept looking over to where Jesse and Bri were sitting. I really wanted to go up to her to see if she was alright...I knew that she wans't though. she looked so miserable. When Tyson was here she was always laughing and smiling. I could hear her laughing every lunch. She had a cute laugh and to be honest...I miss it, and her smile. when i saw her walking to classes she would always be so bubbly and she looked like she could fly to her next class. But now....It's like she's been wrapped up in chains and is being dragged to there. Poor girl, I just want to hug her and tell her everything will be alright. She'd probably get scared if i did that though, I mean we've talked like twice.
By the end of lunch, the boys were throwing stuff at her and calling her emo because she looked depressed. I wanted to stop them but they are all bigger than me and they would probably hurt me, I mean those boys are violent. Bri ignored it and kept talking to Jesse.
for sport our teacher couldn't be bothered teaching us so he let us do whatever we wanted. Bri just sat in the corner and stared at the ground. I was trying to build up the courage to go talk to her but she left before i could do it. I watched her leave for her car through the windows. She didn't have Jesse with her.
When the bell went I ran out of class to find Jesse before he could go home. He was waiting at Bri's locker.
"hey Jesse!" I quickly ran up to him. He looked a bit scared because he had no idea who i was.
"ummm hi?" he said confused.
"hey Jesse, Bri left about half an hour ago. Do you need a lift home?" I asked, hoping he would say yes.
"umm why would you ask me that?" Man he was really unsure about me.
"well i figured that you would need a lift...Plus I..uh.. need to talk to your sister." I replied, hoping he would understand.
"oh so you need directions to our house?" Smart kid.
"uh yeah kinda" for some reason this was really embarrasing, but i don't know why. As I led Jesse to my car i text John telling him to get a lift with Sarah. Of course he was fine with it.
As Jesse led me to their house I tried to make conversation by asking him of he liked sydney. He wasn't very conversational...I don't blame him either. We just turned into their driveway when Jesse spoke for the first time that didnt have anything to do with directions.
"oh btw mum is home"
"umm yeah isn't it kind of expected that your mum is home?" i asked confused.
"well no. We live by oursleves. She is just here for a while because of...well..she's just here." okay then. Why do they live by themselves?!? Weird.
I followed Jesse to the door and he let me in. I saw their mum sitting on the couch reading. She stopped and looked up at me.
"oh hi...Jesse who's this?" She asked I think she was just being polite. She didn't sound like she cared at all.
"umm this is Lenny. He's here to see Bri."
"uh hi. Is she here?" i askes trying to sound polite as possible.
"yes. She's in her room"
"okay thanks." Jesse signaled with his hand for me to follow him, so i did. He knocked on her door and said something to her in i think spanish. They speak spanish? hmmm interesting. Whatever the hell she was saying, she sounded surprised. Jesse left and waved his hand saying i could go in.
Bri's POV*
I got home and walked passed mum. I think she knew not to ask. I went upstairs to my room and lay on my bed, just thinking...I didn't realise how long i'd been laying there untill Jesse came in. He started talking to me in spanish.
"hey Bri some Lenny guy is here to see you" WFT?!?!?!
"What? ummm tanned skin. dark hair, lip peircing?"
"yeah that one"
"umm okay...let him in." why the hell Is lenny here? Jesse left and a few seconds later Lenny stuck his head around the door.
"hey"He looked kind of embarrassed..
"hey. Uh what are you doing here exactly?"
"oh um I came to see of you were alright?"
"oh uh y-yeah im fine" I really wasn't. Even though i don't really know him it was nice to see he cared.
"watcha doing?" he was trying to start conversation.
"um just thinking about..uh.." I started to tear up. I missed Tyson so much. Len came over and sat on my bed and hugged me.
"hey i'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you" Lenny started to freak out because he thought he made me cry.
"no it's not your fault. I just miss him so much" I quietly sobbed into Lenny's chest for a while. He tried to comfort me but it didn't work. At least he tried. About half an hour later i calmed down and Lenny had to go home because he had training with the AthElites. I cringed when he said that word. It meant Jason. He was going to train with the boy that took my brother away from me. But i didn't say anything, he doesn't know. Jason hadn't told anyone it was him.
After Lenny left I fell asleep pretty much staright away. I didn't realise how tired i was from all these sleepless nights. Later on in the night Jesse came in and cuddled up to me. I think he keeps having nightmares about it.
Over the next week nothing out of the ordinary happened. I talked to Lenny a couple of times but that was it. I used to love school, it was the best time of the day because i could run around and be an idiot. But now i hate it. I hate the teachers. I hate those boys that tease me. I hate everything about it. Except for Lenny. He was alright i guess.
