elle's pov✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* 　　
*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧tuesday

"it's really distracting sitting next to him, he just complains about the work when i try to get on with mine." i lie to mrs reid.

the truth is i enjoy helping mattia everytime we have spanish class. i just want to distance myself as much as possible.

"fine, you can sit in the front." she points and i smile, taking the seat as my classmates begin to enter the classroom.

mattia's pov✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*

we walk through the doors for spanish class, laughing loudly. i remove my arm from around vic's shoulder as we take our seats.

"why are you sat there?" i ask the nerdy boy who's occupying elle's chair. "move."

"mrs reid said i sit here from now on." he says quitely, not making eye contact with me.

"well this is elle's place. so, move." i repeat.

"she's over there now." he points with his head down.

"why the fuck is she over there?" i say and the boys turn around to face me.

"i'm not surprised." alejandro shrugs.

"yeah, we can't be mad at her for not wanting to talk to you this time. you deserve it after what happened at the party." kairi says.

"what? why what happened?" i shake my head.

"bro, you don't remember? you went off on her, she was backed into a wall whilst you shouted in her face. you said she fucked up your life and you hate her." alejandro shakes his head at me.

"and after all that she still took care of you." kairi mutters.

"no." i throw my head into my hands. "why didn't you guys tell me yesterday?" i say as i recall the blurry memory, feeling awful.

"thought you were avoiding talking about it cause you was ashamed, as you should be." kairi says.

"fuck, i had no idea i did that. does vic know?" i ask quietly since her and taylor were at the table infront of ale and kai.

"no, they had already left and we haven't brought it up since." ale explains and i nod.

i put my head down on the table and try to remember exactly what went down.

elle's pov✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*

the bell rings, signalling that spanish class is over.

i get up quickly from my seat and leave the room.

"elle!" i hear mattia call out my name. "elle, please. wait!"

i speed up along the hallway and see a familiar looking girl.

"hey!" i say to her as she stops walking to talk to me.

"oh, hi elle." she smiles.

"you were with alejandro at that party right?" i ask, praying that i've got the right girl.

"yeah, i'm guessing you don't know my name. it's zoe." she laughs.

i see mattia spot us but he stops trying to catch upto me since i'm busy. we've both got a free period right now and i hope he doesn't look for me the whole time.

"i'm really sorry." i shake my head as we walk along next to eachother. "anyways, i've got a free period have you? i was thinking of getting something to eat."

"i haven't got a free, but i'll definitely come for some food." zoe smiles and we walk out of the building.

"so you and ale?" i smirk.

"no lol, that just happened randomly that night. he's been snapping me ever since though." she smiles and i nod as we begin to get to know eachother.

"hey coach!" i shout to my uncle who is in the school parking lot and tell zoe i'll be one minute.

"hey kiddo, where you going?" he asks.

"to grab some food. anyway, my mum has started counselling and they want to meet the family for a group session or whatever. it's on wednesday, tomorrow, after school so i'll be missing practice. i'm sorry." i explain.

"don't worry about it, i understand. i hope it goes well." he says and waves goodbye as i catch back up with zoe.

*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧thursday

"no dad, you don't understand. i can't go in there." i shake my head.

he had picked me up from school to take me to the tutoring session. the tutoring session at mattia's house.

"no, i do understand. you're being lazy!" my dad says. "get out of the car elle and go do your job."

"me 'being lazy' is not the reason!" i protest.

"what's the reason then?" he turns to me.

"i- you- ugh. the boy is... ill. he's ill. yep, that's right, he's super sick. he told me at school." i turn to him as i think of the lie on the spot.

"ah he's 'super sick' but he was at school today?" my dad nods.

"well... he got sent home of course. i felt so bad, he looked awful!" i nod my head with a frown.

"well, he looks fine to me." my dad points out of the car window behind me.

i turn around and see mattia stood tall at his front door, he begins to wave at my dad.
