I'll just give you a hint, theres some drama in this one. ;) Sorry it's so short I've been busy! Chapter 8 will be way longer, and more drama filled! Share/Comment/Vote!

I wake up and look outside, it was cloudly but it wasn't raining. I take a quick shower then change into my new clothes with boots. I take my towel and wrap it around my head while I put light makeup. Amanda said just a little wouldn't kill. Which it didn't, I look pretty good in it. I rub the towel on my hair to make it damp. I brush it quickly then grab my bag to leave. I text Amanda telling her to make sure to meet me in the breakfast room. I feel the breeze hit my face and it surely wakes me up. I start my car and drive past Michaels house, still seeing his car there. I hope he doesn't make fun of me if he's coming to school today. I don't know why I even gave him that stuffed fish, he probably showed his friends and thought I was completly stupid. I wash the thoughts out of my mind and head to school.  

*Michael's POV

I groan as I turn in my bed. I turn to see the stuffed toy Daniella got me. I don't know why she decided to get it for me but it was cute. I was looking in her bag yesterday and found a blade in one of her zippers, so I threw them all out. I know I was mean to her most of the times but something about her makes me want to change, and be the best person, just for her. If Austin gets her first I'll be so devistated, he isn't good for her. No one is. I get up to take a shower then wear my Rolling Stones t-shirt with a coat, my black jeans were skinny, faded and had cuts in them. I slip on my vans then head out to school. I wanted to drop out so badly, but I know it wouldn't help me when I need a job. I worked at a advertising company because my father owned it. I didn't really do much but get emails and shit. My dad only paid my bills was because he wanted me to save for college. When I get to school I grab my tardy pass and hear the 2nd period bell ring. I see Daniella walking with Austin and I just wanted to punch the fuck out of him. Daniella see's me and she waves, I half smile then walk towards Austin. "Austin can I talk to you?" I roughly ask. He looks at Daniella then she nods and walks to her next class. "Don't fuck with her anymore got that? She doesn't need to put up with your fucking bullshit." I growl, I know what his plan was. We were all at the frat house and his friends made him find an innocent girl to fuck with. "Look man, stay the fuck out of my way, she doesn't want you. Clearly." He laughs and my blood was boiling. I know if I hit him Daniella would be mad and would figure out I liked her, so I just walk away and punch a locker as I walk. I walk to my art class and dap my friends. I would never tell her I like to do graffiti and draw, or atleast not now. I sound fucking crazy, as if I already date her. After drawing some stupid shit and messing with the teacher I head to lunch and look for Daniella. Of course I see her sitting next to Austin and his friends which were in the bet with him. I shut my eyes tight and feel my heart racing. I walk up to her and grab her arm, I startle her and she stands up. "What?" I look at her, she looked different with makeup.. I like it better when she wears her face natural. "I have to uh show you something." I say, ignoring the smirk coming from Austins mouth. I walk her outside where they couldn't see. "Don't fucking mess with him anymore, I already told you he isn't the person you think he is." I say, and she rolls her eyes. "I'm not a child, stop treating me like one! You have no right to get in my business." She yells, I sigh. I can't just tell her they were using her. It wouldn't be right. 

*Daniellas POV

I didn't understand what the hell he was on about, I just wanted to get back inside and sit with someone who is actually nice to me. I walk away and sit back next to Austin and his friends. "What was that about?" He asked, Oh you know, Michael is just crazy and keeps telling me to stay away from you because you're the biggest fucking player in the world. I really wanted to say that, but instead I lie. "Oh nothing, just wanted to help me with my homework.." He nods his head and I finish my lunch. Maybe I shouldn't hang out with Austin anymore.. even if he's sweet..charming..handsome. Okay maybe I will but if he asks me out what will I say? Nonsense, he doesn't even know me personally. After lunch I walk to math and sit down quietly. Michael walks in and of course he looks angry as usual. He sits down and we start class. We both stay silent the whole lesson, it was weird but finally he didn't have say rude comments about me. After I hand in my work I walk out of the class. I grab my study materials and gym bag from my locker and head off outside until I hear someone call my name. "Daniella!" Michaels voice echos my ear and I turn around. "Please just listen to me and you should know by now I never beg you anything but please stay away from him he's using you and he doesn't want to be with you just understand what I'm saying." He sounds so desperate I wanted to laugh. I stay serious but I turn back around and walk to my car. I wanted more answers, I wanted him to prove to me why he's such a bad person but looks so innocent.. Don't judge him because of how he looks.. Michael looks like he's capable of murder..but he just begged you not to see him anymore... I listen to my thoughts and call Amanda an hour after I get home. I tell her I'm coming by her house and she tells me she'll have to come to mine because she's moving out of her parents house into a new condo. She comes over and we sit down silent. "How is Austin a bad person?" I break the silence. She coughs and begins her story. "Well this one time.. we were all at a frat party, me, Michael, Austin, and a bunch of Michael and Austins friends. Michael and Austin were pretty close I guess. Okay well we were all sitting down and Austins friends told Austin to make a bet with Michael. The bet was to find an innocent girl and try to fuck around with her, you know? They didn't have to fuck her but they had to pretend to like her. And whoever won would get about 550 dollars. Michael didn't want to play, he said it was too fucked up and he isn't wasting his time. Austin still wanted to do it and he did. He did it to my friend Tracey, she didn't know about it and neither did I honestly. I wasn't in the game I just knew about it too. He took her virginity and told her he loved her, and wanted a future with her. After he fucked her he left and got the money. He still fucks around with other girls.. I guess I can see where Michael was coming from when he told you to stay away from him. When I told you Michael was bad news when we met it was because Michael was in the bet at that time. I'm not exactly sure if he does them anymore. It's all just fucked up, really." She breathes and my mouth is completely open. Austin just uses me for a bet? Or was it Michael? I look into her eyes and see the symphony she gives me. "What do I do?" Who do stop talking to who?" I panic. "Probably Austin.." She shrugs and I nod my head. I grab my phone and call him. "Hey gorgeous whats up?" I was so mad I couldn't believe his bullshit. "Shut the fuck up and listen to me, don't ever talk to me again you disgusting trash! You're fucking sick and you need help, if you ever talk to me again I'll fucking kill you." I scream into the phone as if he was face to face with me. I hang up and run my hands through my hair. Amanda stands up and hugs me. She hugs me for the longest time and I feel secure. After she lets go she tells me she'll leave me alone so I can figure out what to do. She hugs me again then I am left alone. Just like before. I still wasn't sure if Michael was in it too but I just felt disgusted. When he took me to the movies, talked about his future, talked about my smile.. It was all a joke. I feel relieved that I was informed before he tried to do anything. I walk to Michaels house and harshly knock on his door. He opens it and he probably noticed I was crying. "Are you okay? Was it your mom again?" He panics and I shake my head. "You...you were right." My voice cracks and I hug him, putting my head to his shirtless chest. I rest there for awhile crying, telling him I was sorry for being stupid. "Shh, you aren't stupid.." He says rubbing my back. I felt so safe in his arms I didn't want to leave.. I didn't want to go back to the unsafe world.
