SOPHIE'S POV:
"Luke, I'm okay now. It's just a bruise." I sighed, trying to take the ice pack from his hand.
He didn't nudge. Holding my hand steady and the ice pack on top of my bruised wrist. "You're not playing. I heard the girls are playing volleyball. You can't play with this bruised wrist."
I pulled my hand away from him. "I'm fine!"
A whistle sounded all over the gym.
Shaking his head, he pulled my by my other wrist. and went to the coach.
"Coach, Sophie bruised her wrist, I don't think she can play." Luke said.
Are you kidding me?
Other students were watching us while Luke's still holding my wrist.
Coach Deen nodded. "Sophie, bench. Gia, take Sophie's place."
I pulled away hand from him. "You're an ass." Before walking away and sat on one of the benches.
Trisha came to me. "Good call Soph. Just sit tight, we'll win this."
She ran and gave me a thumbs up, I gave her a thumbs up back.
The girls are playing volleyball while the boys are playing basketball.
The whistle sounded so I stood up to get a better watch.
Hanna glared at me.
What's her problem? She just gets on my nerve.
Trisha, Trina, Zoey, Lola, Conie, Jane
vs.
Hanna, Mavi, Chloe, Nicky, Kriesha, Lianne
The whistle sounded again and Nicky from the other team served first. It went straight to Zoey who almost got hit because of the pressure but still managed to receive it well.
The game went well. It's already the second set, match point and Trisha's team is winning.
Hanna served and Gia received it pretty well. The ball went to Chloe which she failed to block.
So that's a clear win for Trisha's team.
Hanna glared to Chloe and came whining to her. "It's just a simple block and you can't even do it right?"
She pushed Chloe and Chloe fell straight to the ground.
Coach Deen whistled. "Ms. Williams, that is enough! You are going straight to the headmistress' office."
"Why is it always me! They started it first! They purposely passed it to Chloe because they know she-.."
Coach Deen cut her sentence off with another whistle. "Ms. Williams, to the headmistress' office. Now." She didn't listen. "..NOW."
Serves her right.

LUKE'S POV:
Well that was a show. Hanna seriously has no goodness left in her.
"Where we eating lunch?" Cameron asked.
Tyler snapped his fingers. "A new grilling restaurant opened like 10 blocks from here. Should we try it out?"
They all agreed. We were gonna go to the parking area when I saw Sophie opening her locker. I wonder where Trisha is.
I was about to go to her but somebody shouted my name.
"Luke, baby!" Then she hugged me. This overly disgusting perfume, I know who she is.
"Get off me." I shook her off.
She pouted. How ugly, "Did you see how unfair the game was? It was their fault right, baby?"
Someone slammed their locker door harshly. Hanna looked past my shoulder and smirked.
It must be Sophie.
I frowned. "Stop calling me Luke, it's Jey for you. Now f**k off." I shook her off.
My friends laughed and walked off with me.
Hanna was utterly shocked and still.
I saw Sophie walking from a far so I walked up to her. Telling the boys to go away but they didn't listen.
"Cherry!" I shouted.
"Cherry?" My friends asked me at the same time.
"f**k off bro."
They laughed at me.
Sophie looked back with a glare, "What?"
"Where's Trisha? Why isn't she with you?" I asked.
"She changed clothes."
I sighed, "Sophie. These are my friends. You know Tyler. This is Chris, Cameron and Collin."
Collin stepped out and grabbed her hand lightly. "Pleasure meeting you, good lad." He kissed her hand.
Sophie blushed.
He laughed. "I think you're right about the Cherry part." He whispered at me.
"I-It is nice meeting you too. But if you guys don't mind, I have to get going already. Bye!" She waved. Still having a slight tint of pink on her cheek.
I gave Collin a punch.
"Man, you forgot to tell us your fiance is one hell of a pretty one."
"Oh shut up." I pushed myself past them.
Since when did she get really calm and nice?
"You ditched me to see that girl?"
Her again. Just get lost already!
"For the second time, f**k off Hanna."
"C'mon Hanna. There's no way you can't see how she's so much better than you." Chris said to Hanna.
Until when will she stop?
She glared at him. "Shut up! I'm not talking to you."
I smirked, "You should listen to him because he's right."
"Luke, am I not enough? I will give you everything. Anything.." She pouted and clung onto me.
I shook her off, "I don't want anything to do with you and most certainly don't want you." I walked away.
"I'm gonna make that girl pay!" She shouted from behind.
I thought she's be suspended?
"Are you Luke Dawson?"
Who are you now?
I gave him a blank face. "What now?" I studied him. "Who the f**k are you?"
He went still with eyes wide. "You don't know me?"
"Should I know you? Even if I do, I don't care."
He cackled, "I'm the Keith Black."
Oh, so this is the Keith Trisha was talking about.
I smirked at him and stepping a step closer to him.
I shook my head, "Should that scare me?"
He gave me a disappointed face. "That doesn't matter. Just stay out of Sophie. Get out of her life." He glared at me.
"I don't take orders from strangers."
He went still again, "You're not scared of me?"
Is that the best he got?
I looked at him from top to bottom. "I don't see the reason to be scared so why would I? I encountered countless jerks already. What new could it be?"
I am completely towering his shorter frame.
He huffed, "Look here Luke-.."
"It's Jeyden for you. From the top." I rose a brow.
"Look here Jeyden, I don-.."
I interrupted him again, "Jeyden the great. It's Jeyden the great. Do it again."
He was fuming mad so I let him push me.
That's it? Such a weakling.
I gave him my blank expression. "Walk away."
He clenched his fist, "You are such a meek!" And with that he walked away.
Dumbass, piss off.
You dare hurt Sophie again, you're getting it ten fold.
