Saving Me

Denies’ POV
I hate that he brings the soft side out of me. I don’t know where it came from; I thought it all went away the day my mom left us.
We were talking and chatting normally, I’m glad I made him laugh a few times; the sound was music to my ears.
“So, tell me about your family?” I asked.
He stiffened for a little and seemed uncomfortable” I’m an only child, when my mom was pregnant the doctor told her that she can’t bear children again so that’s why I don’t have any siblings” I noticed that he avoided talking about his parents and only talked about him being a only child.
“What about yours, I’ve never heard of them?” he asks taking a sip from his coffee.
“Everyone knows that I killed them” I continued eating trying to act normal.
Louis POV
I wanted to change the subject away from my parents so badly so I thought about asking about hers, I’ve never heard anything about them anyway. Are they serial killers?
“Everyone knows that I killed them” she said normally.
I started coughing violently; it’s not the right time to choke on my coffee.
When I finished she was looking at me anger flashing through her eyes”Let’s go, we don’t want you getting late” she spat out the word ‘you’ like I’m some disgusting disease.
She stood up and shook her hand ordering me to follow her.
I walked next to her still thinking of what she said. How can someone kill their own parents, that’s horrifying?
While we were walking, I realized that I’m taller than her by only an inch or so. Great god I was taller because if I wasn’t that would be so awkward.
“Why are you hiding your bruises?” she asked as she stopped walking and lay against the school gates.
“What a-are you talking about?” I lowered my head to the floor.
“I saw them while we were at the restaurant.” she said while pulling my hoodie off.
I quickly pulled it on, she dragged me to a corner where no one was around and pulled it off again.
“You’re still beautiful even if these scars are here” she whispered while rubbing them softly” do they hurt?”.
She looked sad, angry and in pain. Is she faking it all?
“You don’t care for anybody, so stop lying that you care about me” I pulled my hoodie on and walked away.
I really didn’t want to say that but I couldn’t control myself. She looked so hurt when I said it, I wish I can go back to hug her and tell her I’m sorry.
“Cohen” someone shouted as I entered the school building, I turned around knowing who it is already.
Ryan Carter; the jock and football player of the school. He has been my bully since kindergarten. He is 6’2, has broad shoulders, big brown eyes with amazing brown hair.
“It’s been a long time since I had fun with you” he smirked. I know what will happen now, he will hit me or cut my hoodie and say hurtful words as always.
He took calm steps towards me with his stupid smirk that made me want to kill him and throw him in the ocean.
I felt his fist connect with my jaw and send me a few steps backwards. His fist kept hitting me in the face. As he got bored of it he threw me to the floor and started kicking me. I closed my eyes surrendering to him knowing it would do me no good if I tried to do something.
“Get away from him” a loud voice boomed through the hallway, making me flinch and Ryan to freeze. I looked at my knight in shining armor to see Denies standing there.
She quickly closed her eyes taking calming breaths before launching at him and throwing him away from me. I looked shocked as he was thrown at the lockers at the end of the corridor.
It was like watching someone fly from the start to the end of the hallway, but no it was real.
She ran to him, held him by his shirt and threw him again to the locker next to me. However, this time was stronger.
She got on top of him and started throwing violent punches at his already bruised face. I’ve never seen someone that angry and violent in my life.
All of the students were getting out of the class rooms followed by the teachers. No one was doing anything neither I. All of us were scared of what was happening.
She kept punching him and kicking his stomach. The floor and lockers were filled with blood, his blood. I was sure if no one stopped her Ryan will be dead.
Suddenly, Denies was yanked up away from Ryan. She growled and started thrashing around. She actually growled like an animal. I looked at the person who dared to risk his life and it was her best friend Ace.
He held her by her stomach from behind while she was thrashing around trying to reach the Ryan.
“Denies, relax we’re in school right now” he scolded her softly.
As soon as she heard his voice she relaxed, I felt a strange feeling. Am I jealous, heck why would I be?
“All of you go to your classes right now” he screamed which caused all of them to scurry back frightened. I stood there unable to move looking at Ryan’s body, is he dead?
She seemed to remember something and quickly turned around looking at me. Something in her eyes changed, they turned golden then back to their grey color in seconds. I wasn’t sure if it was my imagination or not.
“Are you okay, you need to go to the hospital?” she said wiping the blood off her knuckles.
I looked at her hands; I noticed they were injured a little. I felt bad but she didn’t look hurt at all.
“Do you need to go the hospital?” she asked observing the bruises on my face.
I quickly shook my head knowing if I went to the hospital, the doctors will tell her that there are old scars and she will know that I get abused.
“No you should, come here?” she took my hand in hers, hugged Ace then went outside.
Is Ace her boyfriend or just her best friend? It’s not my business anyways.
“Not all rumors about you are true!” I whispered.
She stopped and looked at me for some minutes before she turned back around and continued walking.
“What did you hear about me?”
I gulped thinking of what I should tell her. “I hear that you are a cold-hearted person, a killer, murderer, and a billionaire”.
She chuckled then said something I wish she didn’t “you don’t know anything yet” and winked
