Olivia’s POV “What did I tell you about that smart mouth of yours”, Zack growled with his face inches from mine, his scent dancing on my nose sending a tingle down my spine, "hic" “Get away from her”, Sean barked, Zack turned and punched him in the face, Sean fell back knocking down a table and four chairs “Now, where were we?” Zack leaned into me pressing his body against mine, "hic", he smirked, “right, you called me dvmbass”, he moved back and held his hand above my head, my body jolted as cold milk trickled down my face Everyone in the cafeteria gasped and then laughter erupted again, my eyes started to water, ‘no, Olivia, you can’t let him see you cry’ “I’m gonna kill you”, Sean snarled pouncing on Zack throwing a right hook at him, but Zack dodged it easily, he grabbed Sean’s arm pulling Sean towards him as he threw a right hook of his own Sean groaned as his face and Zack’s fist met in the middle, Zack let go of Sean's arm and I watched as Sean fell to the ground holding his nose, he shook his head and got to his feet again, he rushed towards Zack throwing a right hook then a left hook, but Zack dodged them all Everyone was silent as they watched the fight, it was hard to believe that someone was actually standing up to Zack as he was the strongest in the school. Zack threw a low punch, hitting Sean in the ribs, he threw another one, hitting Sean right on the mouth “Stop it Zack, that’s enough”, I screamed but my words and pleas were ignored, Sean fell with his back to the ground and Zack hurled himself on top of him and started a barrage of punches aimed at Sean's head “Stop it Zack you’re going to kill him”, I screamed and again he ignored me, I fell on my knees, and my heart broke as I saw Sean's head sway from side to side with each punch, tears ran down my face, I screamed, begging him to stop, Zack’s eyes met mine, he looked surprised for a second then got on his feet, growled, and walked out Jeany, Melody, and I, picked Sean up off the floor and rushed him to the nurse’s office “what the he*ll happened to him?” Nurse Joyce asked with concern and shock carved all over her face, we didn’t answer, fighting in school was a no, no, and even though the fight was not started by Sean he will surely be punished “Okay fine, don’t tell me, but from what I can tell, your friend here was in a very serious fight with someone way stronger”, she looked me up and down and pointed to the sink, “you can wash up over there” “Thanks”, I gave her an awkward smile and cleaned myself up, I stood next to Melody and Jeany as nurse Joyce attended to Sean, she looked at the three of us and raised an eyebrow at us, “so who did this to him?” We looked at each other and then at the floor “Some friends you guys are, you’re willing to protect the person who used your friend as a punching bag, shame on you”, she tisk’d at us and shook her head turning her attention back to Sean, Melody started crying, uncontrollably, her emotions taking her over “We are not protecting him, we are protecting our friend, who knows what he’ll do next if he finds out that we told on him”, Melody cried “Fine, don’t tell me, I’ll find out soon enough anyway”, nurse Joyce shrugged “What happened, where am I?” Sean groaned as he regained consciousness “Oh my god, Sean, are you alright?” I rushed to him running my hand through his short black hair, his brown eyes looked back at me, and he smiled “Are you alright Angel?” He whispered “You went to war for me, so I’ll let that one slide”, he chuckled and grimaced in pain holding his ribs “Thanks Angel”, I rolled my eyes and smiled back at him “Sean, thank you for what you did today, I'm so lucky to have a friend that has my back, but please don’t ever do that again”, I whispered “Yeah, fighting the future Alpha, are you out of your mind?” Jeany said standing next to me I looked at Sean laying on the bed, he did have muscles, well let’s just call them nerd muscles, but Zack on the other hand looked like he lived at the gym, a flashback of Zack on top of Sean punching him relentlessly, played in my head “Sean, please promise me that you won’t do anything like that again”, he smiled up at me and said “If I don’t protect you Angel, who will?” “The following students need to come to the principal’s office immediately, Olivia Whitlock, Jeany Rowe, Melody Holt and Sean Jacobs”, the principals secretary’s voice boomed over the intercom, and we all looked at each other I can’t believe that Zack has only been back a day and already he has been in a fight, he is responsible for one of my best friends being in the clinic, and now I’ve been called to the principal’s office, why doesn’t he just leave me alone, I hate him, I hate him with all my heart “Okay, I need to do some few checks before you go”, nurse Joyce said as she helped Sean off the bed, she held out her hands to him and began, “pull me towards you, okay now push me away, stand on one leg, now the other…good, you don’t seem to have a concussion, but if you throw up come see me right away”, he nodded, and we left heading to the principal’s office I opened the door, and the scent of lemon mint consumed me, it filled the room, he turned and smirked at me running a hand through his dark brown hair, “hic”, my body started again with the involuntary hiccups “Please sit”, the principal gestured to his three-seater beige couch that was cropped up against the wall, the four of us squeezed together and sat down, while Zack had a whole seat right at the principal’s desk “Sir…” I started to plead our case “If I may, Sir?” Zack interrupted “Go ahead”, the principal looked pleased when he looked at Zack “Imagine my distress Sir, I was sitting there minding my own business when all of a sudden I was attacked, I had no choice but to defend myself” “What?” I barked in disbelief; he was lying so nonchalantly that it looked like second nature to him “Yes, I admit I might have gone too far but I was only defending myself, and you know that if my father finds out about this it won't be good for you or the school” “I know Mr Knight”, the principal raised his hands gesturing surrender Did the principal just grovel, what the he*ll is going on here? “The perpetrators will be dealt with thoroughly, please tell your father that when you see him”, the principal chuckled nervously “Thank you Sir, may I be excused?” “Yes, please go ahead” Melody, Sean, Jeany, and I, sat there with our mouths on the floor as Zack walked past us with a sly grin closing the door behind him “You four will get detention, and a letter sent to your parents” “But Sir, Zack is the one that started it all, he’s lying”, Jeany boomed “I don’t want to hear your lies Miss Rowe” “But she’s telling the truth”, Melody barked “I’m not going to have detention on my permanent record because you’re afraid to stand up to Zack”, I stood up with my anger radiating through me “Watch yourself Miss Whitlock” “No, I don’t care that his father is on the board of directors, this is not fair, I’ve been a model student, I’ve worked hard for my GPA, and I won’t let you or Zack take that away from me” “This is your final warning Miss Whitlock”, the principal growled with his patience running thin now “Don’t you think it’s odd that Zack has been here less than a day, and yet we’re all summoned to the principal’s office for the first time, Olivia and I have had perfect scores and kept a perfect record and now were accused of attacking someone without provocation?” Sean spoke in a low growl; he looked frail sitting on the couch, and I remembered Zack’s big masculine frame towering over his small one “Look at him, he might have a concussion, he’s the real victim here not Zack”, I barked “Enough”, the principal boomed, “you all have detention for the next three days, starting tomorrow” “But Sir”, we pleaded “Do you want to make it five?” We stopped, and he pointed to the door I walked home stomping my feet in a rage, a black Mercedes screeched to a halt in front of me and I froze, the window wined down, “hey little bunny, wanna go for a ride”, I huffed and walked around the car, he opened the car door, and I ran “You gotta be faster than that little rabbit”, he grabbed my arm pulling me to him “Hic”, my body started again as my face crashed into his hard chest “You get the hiccups a lot, or is it only when you’re with me?” He smirked running his hand through my locks “Hic”, he chuckled
