Chapter 8

Chapter 8: Sam’s P.O.V.

       I was not only embarrassed for Luke but I was also scared for Linzie. Chris was an absolute psycho. He had to have complete control of the relationship. Honestly in the beginning Linzie never let him get away with that kind of stuff. She used to stand up for herself. She always did. But Chris broke her down. Took away any self-esteem she had. She doesn’t love him. She claims she does but she doesn’t. She’s just too afraid to leave him. Like I said he was crazy. Now if he finds out about what happened at lunch the other day things are going to end badly for everyone involved. But one plus side he was on vacation. One bad side? I believe someone recorded it and I think that someone was a friend of his.

            I sighed to myself. I knew this was going to all end badly. Chris is going to be at school today. A fight was going to happen.

The first four classes of the day came and went and now it was time for lunch. I just knew this wasn’t going to end well. Someone’s going to end up hurt, someone’s going to end up suspended if not expelled.

I pulled a seat up at our table where Vanessa, Shay, Calum, Luke, and Ashton were sitting.

“Where’s Michael at?” I asked looking around.

“He said he had to do something.” Calum grinned.

“Um… Ok?”

“Where’s Linzie?” Shay asked.

“Chris came back today remember?” I reminded her.

“He did?” – Luke

“Yes.” – me

“Oh…” – Luke

“Shay, want to go get some lunch with me?” – Calum

Shays eyes lit up like the 4th of July. “Sure.”

As they walked off Chris and Linzie walked into the lunch room.

“Hey Chris!” some guy yelled. Chris left Linzie standing there by herself and walked over to the guy that had called him. Linz spotted us and quickly came to sit with us.

“Hey beautiful.” – Luke

Linzie’s cheeks were redder then a tomato. “Luke, don’t.”

“Just pointing out the obvious.”

I watched as the guy that called Chris over produced a phone and was showing him something on it. Chris’s expression turned angry and his face turned red. His fists balled up and he made his way towards our table. He grabbed Linzie by her arm and yanked her up.

“HEY!” Luke yelled.

“WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?” Chris yelled in Linzie’s face. “THINK YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH THAT SHIT? WELL GUESS WHAT YOU’RE WRONG.”

“Chris back off.” I told him.

“SHUT UP.” He yelled at me.

His attention returned back to Linzie. “AND YOU. YOU ARE SO WORTHLESS. YOU THINK YOU CAN GO BEHIND MY BACK AND GET AWAY WITH IT. NO. YOU’RE SO STUPID. SUCH AN IDIOT. AND YOU’RE UGLY TOO - “He was stopped mid-sentence with a blow to the nose from Luke. This loosened his grip on Linzie enough so she could slip away and stand behind me. Another punch and Chris landed on the ground. Luke was on top of him. Trapping him on the ground.

“YOU KNOW WHO’S WORTHLESS? YOU ARE! YOU ARE SUCH A PIECE OF CRAP!” Luke yelled in his face. “YOU DON’T DESERVE HER. SHE’S SO BEAUTIFUL AND YOU ARE A WORTHLESS PIECE OF CRAP.” Neither of them had budged from the ground. Luke had Chris’ arms held down with one hand and he punched him once more causing his nose to start bleeding now.

“Luke! That’s enough!” I yelled but Luke only shook his head. “Get off him!” I looked around but Calum was nowhere in sight and Ashton was busy keeping Vanessa from getting involved. Everyone else was busy chanting ‘FIGHT’.

After a couple more seconds Michael finally showed up and was able to pull Luke off of Chris. Michael restrained Luke and some teacher snatched Chris up off the ground by his collar.

“Luke. Chris. Principal’s office. NOW.” The teacher yelled. The two followed slowly behind him.

“What happened?!” Michael demanded.

“Chris.” Linzie replied trying not to cry. I pulled her into hug and rubbed circles on her back. “This is all my fault! It happened so fast. In a matter of seconds. And now Luke is going to be in so much trouble because of me.”

“No. No. Chris is just a jerk.” I told her. “None of this is your fault.”

“What is going on?!” Calum yelled running up to us with Shay at his side. “We saw the whole thing but couldn’t get through!”

“It’s all over now. Everything’s going to be okay.”

“No. I’m going to stab him.” Vanessa mumbled.

“Vanessa.” I said looking over at her. Ashton was no longer holding her back just gripping her hand. “You will do no such thing.”

“Wanna bet?” I gave her a long hard stare. “Fine.”

“C’mon, let’s get to class.” I told everyone.
