That night, Harry and I cuddled up and fell fast asleep in my bed. I was surprised I actually fell asleep with all that was going on. I couldn't even explain myself, it was like all my insides had been ripped out, I felt like a nobody.

The next day dragged, as usual I saw Grace and all her friends staring at laughing at me as I went in to school. My anxiety was really kicking in and I couldn't help it, so I stayed in the toilets all through first and second lesson crying my heart out. I decided to text Harry throughout second lesson to come and see me, I needed support.

To Harry,

Come quick, I need you, girls toilets first building xoxox

Harry burst open the girls toilets shouting "Lily! Lily!" I could hear him so I opened the door. He squeezed me into his arms hugging me tight as he spoke "Babe, what's the matter?" Kissing my forehead as he did. "I can't take it any longer, it's ruining me" I started crying even more burying myself into his clothes. He continuously squeezed me, pulling me into a long soft kiss at the end. "Meet me at lunch, we'll go somewhere special" He kissed me one final time, before leaving the toilets.

At lunch I met back with Harry. He drove me too a little vintage style cottage café on the outskirts of town. It was called "Sweet Kiss." We parked the car and went in. I ordered a luxurious hot chocolate with a slice of lemon drizzle cake. Harry had the same, only a lemon muffin instead if the cake.We spoke a lot about the whole Grace situation, although I couldn't say much without bursting into tears. I just missed her so much.

We arrived back at school. As I went into math(with Mr Longway(yes nothing changes I still have him) Grace stopped me. "I want too talk to you, meet me at the beach at 5" She said. "Ok" I replied with firmly but fairly. What did she even want too talk about? Did she want too say sorry?

Maths dragged. When Mr Longway spoke to me I would just say "I don't know sir, I've already learnt this." and he would always reply with "Lily, if you've already learnt it then why are you saying you don't know, you should be setting an example, but instead your just staring into space, now please concentrate." I didn't listen to a word he muttered, I mean how could I? School work wasn't important now, protecting my life was.

Harry walked me home. I told him everything that had happened and he said he would go with me, for support, I loved it when he did that.

I was dreading it, all I wanted too do was to focus, not too argue but too simply negotiate with her, for she had done wrong and she was the one too pay for it.
