Better In Time - Ashton Irwin / 5SOS Fanfic

Chapter 7

Going back to school was the worst. It always is to be honest. But seeing Riley and her friends, made the day x1000000000000000000 times worse. Although I wouldn't let them bother me. I had a heart to heart with Ashton last night, I told him everything. He said to me

"You'll be okay. All those girls are idiots who can't see what an amazing and beautiful person you are. Please don't hurt yourself because they're just pathetic. If they bother you, do tell me and I promise I'll be there to protect you. You've only got 3 months of school left, and then you can get away from the horrors of school. People are so cruel, but you can do it babe."

And that made my heart flutter again. I don't know how he does it. Anyway, I walked into school and the first thing I saw was my friends waiting for me by my locker. They were all on their phones. Anti-social little shits. I strode up to them and blurted out a "Hey!". 

"Heyyy El!" Ellie dropped her phone on the floor and ran up to hug me. Eventually, all of the others did and he were engulfed in a massive group hug. We got some weird looks from people who just wanted to go to their lockers, but we didn't care. When we parted, Ayla went straight on her phone again and showed me something. It was a tweet. My tweet. The others looked at me, half concerned, half stern. I guess they wanted an answer. 

"Just don't bother." I sighed, looking down at my feet. I felt a sudden yank at my arm and I knew it was Tess. She always checked whether I was clean or not. I wasn't shocked or anything when she did it, I knew she would. But I was very annoyed seeing as there was loads of people around.

"Can't you do it subtly? Please? I don't want people knowing!" I hissed at Tess. She looked a bit taken aback.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to..." She genuinley looked sad, her eyes clouded over.

"No,no. Tess. Sorry." I choked out and hugged her tightly once more. I couldn't let these girls go. They were my life. 

"We know you didn't mean it" Camille smiled, making me smile. I'm pretty sure that her smile was contagious. Suddenly, the bell rang. We had to part to go to registration. We had a massive group hug once more and pated ways.

Another crappy chapter by me.

I promise, they will get better. I think.
