ANNE'S POINT OF VIEW

I walked down the stairs, and opened the door, I closed it, and i locked the door. Living in my own flat felt like you're living in the universe all alone. I miss James, i miss Brad knocking on the door every minute when i wanted him to.

Now, everything felt dull. I want to go back home, but i want to stay with Luke. I want to stay with him every day all day. Although Brad's here. I'm feeling very guilty.

I parked my car in front of the school gates, and got out, as i stepped in front of the gates, i felt a familiar touch grabbing my wrist. "Anne.." He calls out.

Tears were building up, what is he doing here? "Are you here with Brad?" i ask, He shook his head, i let out a relieved sigh, perfect, i can open up to James all the time, whenever i wanted to.

"Anne.." he calls out again, "James." I cried, hugging him, he wrapped his arms around me, as i cried on his chest, i missed this idiot. "How are you?" He asks, as he pats me on the back. "I'm fine." I sniffed. "Gladly. Anne, i want to ask you." James says

"what is it?" I ask, "why won't you go home back to Birmingham?" He raises an eyebrow, I looked at him, sadly. I can't tell him, he might tell Brad.

"I can't trust you." I answer, turning my back on him

"Tell me every reason, my mouth is zipped. I won't tell anybody. I'm your brother." He grabs my hand. I look at him. "Promise me." I raise my chin up. He air zips his mouth and locks it and throws the key into the air. "Speak

Up." He glares at me.

We both sat down. "I don't want to leave Luke. I want to be with him, although i wanted to go home to Birmingham, i-i still love Luke, no matter what i do. I don't want fo hurt Brad, but i can't stop my feelings for Luke anymore." I cried.

James eyes widened, "are you serious about what you're saying, Mariotte?" He asks. "I am very sure, Danny." I frowned, he hugged me. "Don't worry, i won't tell Brad." He says into my ear. "Neither Connor and Tristan and other of the people who could speak up to." I glared at him, he nods, and i kissed him on the cheek.

"I missed you, Mariotte." He says, "I missed you too, Danny." I smile. I waved goodbye at him and entered the school.

BRAD'S POINT OF VIEW

I quickly ran up to James. "What did she say?" i ask, as we walked towards the car. "She needed to finish her studies first." James answers. "What? She can finish everything in Birmingham's Classic." I reply.

"Brad, this school has records if it says, Cutted Class or Dropped out, you can never enter another school ever again." James retorted. I sighed, "so i have to stay here for the whole school year?" I mutter. "Correct." James looks at me.

He parked the car, and we walked towards the elevator. I groaned, "i'm a drop-out, i shouldn't be in school anymore." I whine. "Then why did you enroll in Crossfield in the first place?!" James furrowed his brows, his tone sounded like he's pissed off.

"First, i wasn't the one who enrolled Bradley William Simpson into Crossfield, Second, i agreed because i wanted to see her again." I answer. James cleared his throat and shook his head. "You are a dumb boy, aren't you, Bradley?" He looks at me. "What a rude compliment, but i'll just agree since it's true." I frown.

James nods and the elevator door opens, we walked towards our hotel room, and i jumped on my bed to sleep.
