You Took Me In As One

Chapter 14

We sat in silence for a while. Until he decided to speak.

" I'm sorry about earlier. I should have listened to your side of the story." He said. I didn't answer or look up at him. I was still angry at him. He was quite for a while again.

" Jordan." I look up at him and he frowned. " Look, I'm sorry okay?" He said. I sighed as I finally decide to speak. " How come you didn't believe me?" I whispered.

" I don't know. It's just that, your principal called and said you were being disruptive, pushed a girl off her chair and lied to him." He pulled his feet out of the water and faced me.

" I didn't hear your side of the story. But if you want, you could tell me." He said. I'm still upset with him. Even though he said sorry, I'm still angry. And I didn't want to talk to him either.

" I'm still upset with you. You shouldn't jump to conclusions in something like this. You knew I was getting bullied, didn't you think that it might be apart of it?" I yelled.

He looked a little shocked at first but then guilt took over. His eyes traveled up way past me. I was confused but then turned my head. There was Stormie.

" Jordan." She sighed. I turned fully around and stood up. " How come you haven't told me?" She asked. " It was my second day and I didn't want to make it seem like that big of a deal."

" Honey. You should always tell a parent if your being bullied." She said placing a hand on my shoulder.

But that's exactly what I didn't want to do; tell a parent. It was only my second day and I didn't want to make myself look week. And because of last time.

" I didn't want to tell you because last time I told an adult, I got bullied more. It made it worse." I whispered

" But you should always tell an adult. It would help." I looked up into her eyes as she continued to speak. " How about I go talk to your principal tomorrow, then see how it goes from there?" She asked.

I nodded my head sighed. Stormie walked back into the house. " It will get better." Ross stated. " I hope." I walk back to the house and run up to my room.

I grabbed my doc and iPod and went into the bathroom to take a shower. I shuffled my playlist as I undressed my self. I hoped into the shower, relaxing as soon as the hot water hit my body.

30 minutes later I was laying in my bed, listening to music. Everyone else was outside playing in the pool. I wasn't going to come down until I had to. Which was to eat.

" Jordan. Dinner!" Rydel called from outside the door. I sighed and got up " Kay. Be out soon."

I changed into white and pink shorts and a yellow tank top. I put my hair into a side braid and walked down stairs. I took a seat beside Ross and Riker.

Beside Riker was Rydel. And across from Rydel was Ryland, then Stormie, mark and Rocky.

We were having salad, burgers and fries. I ate most of the dinner in silence. I got up and put my plate in the sink. I walk over to Stormie grabbing my board on the way. " Can I go to the park?"

" Of corse! Just be back before it gets dark." She replies. I nod my head and walk to the front of the house. I pulled my headphone into my phone and my earphones into my ears.

It took me 6 minutes to get to the park. No one was there. I went up and down the ramp a few times for a warmup, then I started to do tricks. I was to busy concentrating on what I was doing to notice a group of guys walk over.

I didn't really like people watching me, but I didn't want to stop. I was just about the do a kick flip, but a rock stopped me and I flew off my skateboard and landed on my side.

One boy rushed to my side quickly and tried to help me.

" Are you okay?" He asked putting his hand on my shoulder. I looked right into his, gorgeous blue eyes. " Are you hurt?" He started looking over at my leg. It had a big road rash. " Yeah, I guess. Thanks." I smile at him.

He extends his hand out to me and I grab it. He pulls me up and walked me over to a bench. All of his friends must have left. " You know, that was pretty cool what you were doing back there." He said braking the silence.

" Oh. Thanks." I blushed. " I'm Alex." He pocked out his hand for me to shake. " Jordan." I smile.

" We'll Jordan, how come I've never seen you around before?" Alex asked. " Umm. I just moved here like a week ago." He nodded his head in response.

" What school do you go to?" I asked. I haven't seen him around school. " Mackenzie public." He pointed to the school that was just down the road.

" I haven't seen you around so I'm guessing you go to Walter Scott?" He through a rock over by the birds. They all flew away. " Yep." I said popping the 'P'.

He looked down and his phone and back up to me. " can I get your number? Like your new around here and so I could show you around and all of that stuff." He asked a little shyly.

I laughed and took his phone typing in my contact. I sent myself a message so I would have his number too. " Thanks."

" I gotta go so text me later?" He asked standing up grabbing his board. " Yes." I grabbed my board and started to walk home. The leg that I kick with was the one with the road rash so it hurt.

I walked home and it took me 15 minutes. I walked in the door and Ross turned around at the sound of the door shutting.

He looked down at my leg and back up to me. " What happened to you?"

Sorry this took so long and it's short! I just wanted to have something updated. I also had writer block, and no internet to update. Sorry if this chapter sucks too.

I promise that it won't take that long again!
