"What took you so long?" Mrs Montero, Oliver's mother asked immediately he entered the house."Nothing" he replied walking up the stairs."Stop" she said annoyingly and walked up to him in hurried steps. "Who did this to you?" She asked, checking out his face,which were swollen at some angles."Is it George?" She asked again.Oliver's heart skipped a bit.He raised his arms and pushed his mother's hands away.
"It's nothing" he said coldly.
Then he walked away
Mrs Montero stood helplessly , watching his departing back ,her face depicting sadness andworry....
The class was bustling with activity as usual.The serious students were reading while some were gathered, gossiping..
The leader is a blonde girl with delicate features.
"It's unbelievable"
"I heard he's so arrogant,is that true?"
"Yes, but he can be good hearted at times ,his house is just a few distance from mine"the blonde girl said proudly.
"I don't think he'll be comfortable staying here,he's from Willows Hill right?"a boy asked.
"Yeah that's true ,but it's a huge loss for Willows Hill,their best sports student got transferred to our school,their greatest rival.What a pity!"another boy exclaimed.
In a flash,the door burst open.The students could easily guess the intruder.They scrambled to their seats in the blink of an eye.An obese man walked in,a teenage boy behind him.Almost everyone was amazed.
The rumours of Liam's beauty were not exaggerated after all.He commanded attention the moment he walked in.Liam was tall,with a strong jawline and eyes the color of a stormy sky that seems to see right through anybody he stared at.He moved with a languid grace that belied his athletic build.A friendly smile on his lips.
"This is Liam Adrien,your new classmate"Mr Antoine,the teacher had introduced before walking out of the class.
Liam really got along with everyone.He was not as arrogant as they thought.Oliver never took a glance at him from the start to the finish.He was only thrilled that all attention would be shifted from him for the next few months,or probably,till the year ends.
Thinking about it again,Oliver felt everything would be fine .As long as he could endure the troubles and pains.Afterall,this was his final year in high school....
During the first week of Liam's arrival.No one had time for Oliver.Or maybe they were trying to make a good impression in front of the new boy.But good things don't last.The next week,when Oliver was taking a nap,someone knocked on his locker.
He looked up and the face of Alejandro came into his sight.At once,he knew trouble was looking above him."Hand over some fivers" Alejandro said stretching his hand forward.Oliva's eyes darkened.
"Don't have" he muttered,his head lowered.Alejandro hit his locker annoyingly,attracting the attention of other students.
"Bring your bag, let me have a look"he ordered while Oliver shook his head clutching his bag to his chest tightly.
"Hmph!!"Alejandro snorted and forcefully snatched it away from his arms.He poured the contents of the bag onto the desk,some scattering all over the floor.Oliver's body shook angrily but there's nothing he could do,he could only watch as his stuffs were thrown around carelessly.
After rummaging through the bag for few seconds, Alejandro found what he was looking for.Oliver's head ached already.
"You said you don't have any cash with you"
"It's alright then...but ..well..I found these PAPERS in your bag,and I guess I may need them later" Alejandro said ,an evil grin in his lips.
"Give me back my money "Oliver said standing up angrily.Alajandro burst out laughing.
George also joined in the fun.
"Give it back to him ,he may beat the living daylight out of us"he said feigning fear.But he suddenly changed his expression and raised his fist to hit Oliver on the face.
"Stop!!!" a clear yet imposing voice rang out.George's hand froze midair...
