It was the next morning and I had just woke up. I couldn't stop replaying last night in my head. We kissed. We actually kissed. I rolled over and grabbed my phone off my bedside table. Reece had text me.

"Hey beautiful" it said. I felt butterflies rush through my stomach. He was starting rehearsals for the X Factor tour today and so was up as early as I was for school. I was going to the X Factor tour in Manchester with an Internet friend I was meeting up with called Jes. I text Reece back a simple "hey".

As I ate my breakfast Reece told me he wanted to ask me something. This made me nervous, I hate it when people say that because it usually means something bad. I got up from the table and got my school bag and coat. I suddenly wasn't hungry any more. I waited for his return text as I dragged myself to school, thinking of every possibility.

School had got worse, a lot worse. All day I just wandered around on my own trying to avoid the bullies that haunted me everywhere I went. They were getting worse too, telling me to kill myself just like Lewis did and calling me every name under the sun. Usually things like this didn't get to me but with no one at school that I could turn to I felt lost. I heard my phone go off, telling me I had a text. It read:

"Alice, I know we've only met once and only been talking for about month but I really do like you. I think you can tell from the kiss last night that I want to be more than friends. This is taking me a lot of balls to ask you this but will you go out with me?"

Well that wasn't what I was expecting. I got quite excited to be honest. This is hundreds of girls' dream, including mine. I text back:

"I'd love to Reece"

I couldn't stop smiling, until I reached school that is. I looked up from my phone and saw a group of bullies all standing together near the gate.

"What the fuck are you looking at, shitface?" The most popular girl, Natalie, shouted, turning back to her friends and sniggering. I trudged past them and went straight to registration. My form teacher, Mr Berry, was in there sat at his computer. He was alright I guess, he was one of those teachers that hated the popular people and liked the quiet ones. I took my seat and he walked over to me.

"You okay Alice? It was his funeral yesterday wasn't it?" He said looking at me with a smile. He never used Lewis' name now which irritated me a bit.

"Fine" I said, staring at the table. I was suddenly in a bad mood and didn't really want to talk to anyone. I think Mr Berry realised that and just wandered back to his computer. I carried on texting Reece hoping he would cheer me up a bit.

A/N
I know this chapter is a bit rubbish but it was just a filler. I want to try and move the story on a bit but still fit in the details. I hope you all are liking it so far.
