Emma Chamberlain

Olivia had managed to finish all her work so that she could join me and Amanda to watch the football match at a hired out stadium- much bigger than the pitches on the field.

I understood football briefly from Emre's short time in a team years ago but I never watched the school team.

Apparently today was a really important match for QUEENS, and yet I knew that wouldn't stop the bad boys from doing anything even if it meant forfeiting their own side.

What had they done?

Put some sticky liquid in his football boots?

Or paid the ref to send him off almost instantly?

"You really interested in football there?" Amanda chuckles offering me a sweet which I happily take to snap me out of my day dream.

The whistle blows and the match starts and I look around trying to find the bad boys in a desperate plea to at least find out what they're planning.

We're 1-0 up and the crowd is going mad, hooting and shouting. Olivia is super into it bouncing up and down, and all the boys seem to be into her and her bouncing assets. Amanda rolls her eyes and I do a slow small clap standing up- not to applause- but to find someone.

As it comes to half-time everyone falls into their own independent conversations and I decide to go for a walk. I dance down the steep stairs next to the rows of plastic uncomfortable chairs towards the edge of the pitch. It's much bigger when I'm closer towards it.

"Emma!" Shouts someone from behind me and I turn to see Grayson with his leather attire and somehow with bright eyes like he had slept at 7pm.

I doubt he'll remember anything I spoke about last night due to his heavy intoxication

"You look good" he complements and I blush.

"Thanks Gray, um, do you know where Ethan is?" I look round frantically and Grayson points towards a tunnel and tells me that all the boys are together to the left.

Without really thinking about what I'm going to say I thank him and stride away to try and find Ethan. Like said there's a group of boys but I can't quite see Ethan.

I approach the group, tapping one of the boys on the shoulder making him turn his body to look at me.

All the boys are now distracted by you. Ethan along with all of the bad boys bar Grayson and a boy from the other school's team are giving me their full attention.

"Hello sexy thing. Wanting my autograph?" Says the boy from the opposing side and Ethan twitches but does nothing which doesn't surprise me.

Why would he even act like he knew me around the bad boys ESPECIALLY around the three most dangerous ones.

"Actually yeah I do." I reply twirling my hair with confidence.

If Grayson wasn't going to tell me what was going on, and Ethan wasn't going to stick up for me, why the fuck was I going to play by their rules?

"What do you want me to sign babygirl" says the fuck boy in the football shirt. It would've made me pretend to vomit but I needed to roll with it.

"Actually if you follow me to the toilets I'll show you what you can sign" I smirk, intentionally licking my lips.

The boys are all stood jaws open, it's actually a funny sight because they all thought I was innocent and here I was literally hinting at doing sexual things with a boy I had never met.

The boy rubs his hands together as if he's eager.

Ew how disgusting.

I grab one of his hands and lead him towards an empty cupboard and next to it was a wheeling tray holding a mop and a bucket and to my excitement the key to the door.

I steal the key as I enter the cupboard and look across at the boy, he has black hair and olive coloured skin.

"So where am I signing" He asks putting his hands upon my waist.

I didn't ask for that, um no. I push his hands away.

"I'll make you a deal. You-" My fingers run along his jawline as I smirk "-you tell me what they've paid you to do and I'll give you a... surprise" I say suggestively and the footballer thinks about it.

He looks like he's not going to tell me and looks down but as I follow his eye-line I see he's looking at a knife placed in his waist band.

WERE THEY FUCKING KIDDING? THEY WERE GOING TO STAB HIM ON THE FUCKING PITCH.

Yeah, no way that was happening. Had they even thought any of it through?

I turn to leave the cupboard and smirk as a great idea flashes through my head. I step out the door and smile at him,

"And like promised... SURPRISE" I shout shutting the door, pushing the keys in and turning the lock just in time before he starts to bang on the door.

I look around and spot Ethan stood leant on the wall looking in the opposite direction from me. The cupboard key goes straight into my skirt waistband.

I turn Ethan round aggressively holding his leather jacket with both fists slamming him into the wall he was leant on.

"What the fu-"

"You hired him to fucking stab him, Ethan? Are you stupid?" I'm shouting but not loudly.

He's made me angry, Ethan is supposed to be better than that.

"Stop getting involved, you're not part of this, Emma" Ethan says allowing me to stay pinning him against the wall angrily.

"Did you think it through, huh? What happens when he does it then Ethan, then what?"

My face is scrunched as I wait for his stupid response.

"Then he runs and no one knows it was him" Ethan answers and I let loose of a laugh.

"Yeah and then the police gets involved because he just killed boy and he asks the manager who number #5 is and he doesn't hesitate on telling the cops his name.-

-Because who's going to support a murderer? Not someone who's job is to look after multiple boys lives. Then the police ask #5 who paid him and they offer him a lower sentence to tell them who ordered him to stab a boy so publicly.-

-No one can spend money in prison genius, that boy in there would choose his life over your dollars. And all for what? All for what Ethan?"

I let go of Ethan's jacket and step back in disbelief, he was a bad person obviously.

"You don't have a clue about any of it. So don't try to be all helpful. Just fuck off if you don't want to see it" Ethan growls back and I shake my head, absolutely disgusted by his attitude.

"I won't visit you in jail when you kill that boy. Fuck you. Fuck you Ethan. I tried to stop it, remember that. If you want me to go, that's what I'll do"

I take out the cupboard keys and throw them at his feet as I begin to walk away

"your life is up to you. Goodbye Ethan"
