Fallen Angels (sequel to Where our demons hide)

Justin

We had PE again that morning. The girls were doing cheer leading, we were doing dance.

"Three, two, one... Throw!" The female teacher ylled, and Maddy was thrown in the air, she twisted herself a few times before landing in the girls arms.

"Mr Hemmings, this is your class." The coach yelled. I snapped my head towards him, nodding slightly. We done our dance when a girl ran into our area.

"Coach, we need you." She was almost crying. He rushed through the net, and gasped. I popped my head through. There was Maddy throwing up. I rushed over and held her hair back. The girls gathered around someone else. I rubbed her back.

"I'm here babe, deep breaths." I whispered pulling her into my at!s when she stopped.

"Can you get me out of here?" She croaked. "Myself and blood don't go well."

"Of course." I looked over to Miss, and she nodded. I picked her up and walked outside the gym. She held onto me. Awfully light.

"Babe, are you okay?" I asked. She nodded slipping out my arms.

Anna

I held Maddy's hand as we waited in the garage for everyone else.

"I... I don't know what they are going to say.." She whimpered quietly. I sighed.

"I don't know either. But its only for two months." I reassured.

"I don't want to keep the relationship running.. Just in case I don't come back..." She whispered. Then everyone piled through the door.

"What is wrong?" Elizabeth asked, sitting on her knee. Maddy bit her lip.

"I need to speak to Justin first." She whispered. She gave my hand a light squeeze before pushing Elizabeth off her gently and taking Justin's hand hand leading him out.

Everyone gave me worried looks. I shrugged.

"Its for her to tell, not me."

"But why Justin first?"

"I don't know."

We sat in silence except for the odd guitar being tuned, until Justin walked down, his face hard. His eyes slightly puffy. Maddy walked in minutes after him.

Elizabeth

I hugged her tightly. The tears running down her face.

"No, don't hug me." She shook her head pulling out of the hug. "I need to tell you all something. Except Justin and Anna who already know... I'm leaving to Australia for two months. Depending if my parents leave. I mightn't be coming back..."

The whole room gasped. Some angry, some upset.

"And I'm leaving in two hours time."
