and it all went black….

Chapter five-
My eyes opened and I saw all these faces hovering over me. I shot up, and Ti was looking at me.
“ Mayella are you okay!?” He asked.
“ Wha- What the hell hit me?” I asked touching the back of my head. I heard someone clear their throats in back of me, and I turned around and saw Tristan standing there with a football in his hands. I looked at the football, and then Tristan’s eyes met with mine and he shrugged his shoulders, and did a half grin.
“ Sorry?” He mouthed. I rolled my eyes, and got up on my feet and shook my head.
“ Should of known it was you,” I sighed looking at him.
“ I didn’t mean to hit you Mayella,” He said.
“ Hm, yeah,” I muffled. I looked over at Ti and he was looking at me.
“ Are you sure you’re alright Mayella?” Ti asked touching my shoulder. I nodded my head.
“ Im just sore, but im okay,” I smiled.
“ Man that ball sure hit you hard though,” he said shaking his head. I shrugged my shoulders.
“ I should ugh get to class though,” I sighed.
“ Well you missed your third period so go to your fourth,” He smiled. I shook his hand.
“ Thank you,” I smiled. He nodded his head, and I turned around and made my way to my next class. The classes just kind of went by. I felt groggy, and I had a horrible headache. I kind of just blocked everything out. The bell rang, and I know had lunch. I got up from my desk, and stumbled to the lunch room. When I walked in I looked around, and I saw Zoe waving for me to come over. I smiled at her, and then walked over to the table she was sitting at. Their where three boys their too the ones that where in my first class, and then two other girls, and two more boys. I smiled, and sat down next to Zoe. They all looked at me, and I did a faint smile. My head hurt so bad.
“ I heard what happened with the football,” Zoe said looking at me.
“ Yep,” I sighed rubbing my head. The guy across from me shook his head and let out a laugh. I looked up at him, and he smiled, and held out his hand.
“ Hello, I’m Chris.” I reached out my hand.
“ Nice to meet you, I’m Mayella, but you can call me May,” I Smiled. He sent me a dashing smile, and I sat back and let out a sigh.
“ You alright?” A guy asked. I looked over and saw a pale guy looking at me. his brown hair was everywhere and he had bright green eyes. I smiled faintly.
“ Im fine, just… irritated,” I let out a laugh shaking my head.
“ Have you had to put up with Tristan?” he laughed. I shook my head resting my chin on the table. “ Well at least you can go home, and get a break.” I snorted.
“ I live with him,” I said. Everyone at the table looked at me, and I straightened up. “ Um- ugh…. Our parents are a- t- thing, and yeah,” I said looking away. Someone started to laugh, and I looked up and saw three guys laughing so hard tears where coming out of their eyes. two guys fell back off the bench and onto the ground laughing. I sat there and felt my face going red. They stood up trying to catch their breath, and they sat down taking deep breaths. I raised an eyebrow and when they made eye contact with me they started to laugh one again. “ I don’t…. I don’t see what is so funny,” I mumbled.
“ I FEEL SO BAD FOR YOU!” Chris cried. I shook my head and sighed. They stopped laughing and looked down at the table. They were all looking at something behind me, so I turned around and saw Tristan and all his jock friends sitting at their table looking at me. I turned back around, and looked at everyone at the table.
“ Ugh,” I sighed putting my head down on the table.
“ What’s wrong know?” Chris asked.
“ I don’t want to go home,” I muffled into the table.
“ You want to come by my place?” he asked. I looked up at him.
“ Ugh-,” I started.
“ Don’t worry! “He laughed. “ Everyone you see at the table right know is also going to be there,” He smiled.
“ I would but- I don’t have a ride,” I said sheepishly.
“ I’ll have my brother drop you off at your house later, and he is driving us to my house anyway,” he shrugged. I looked around the table and everyone was staring at me.
“ I- I guess,” I said. Everyone smiled, and I sat there and smiled back. Then a loud buzz came, and I jumped back falling off the bench. Everyone erupted into laughter, and I sat up and glared at them. “ T- That wasn’t funny!” I cried.
“ It was hilarious!” A boy cried. I rolled my eyes.
“ Does that mean we have to go to class?” I asked.
“ We still have another fifteen minutes,” Chris smiled. I nodded my head, and realized that I have to tell Tristan that I don’t need a ride home, and im going to a friends. I stood there, and turned around and looked at Tristan and looked back at Zoe.
“ Um I’ll be right back,” I mumbled. Zoe looked up at me.
“ Where are you going?” She asked.
“ I-,” I sighed and shook my head. “ I gotta tell Tristan that I won’t come home after school today, and I don’t a ride either,” I said pinching the bridge of my nose, and making my way towards Tristan.
“ Good luck!” Chris sung I stopped in my tracks, and turned around and looked at Chris dumbfounded. I wonder if he is gay…. He looked up at me. “ What?” He mouthed.
“ Are you gay?” I mouthed back. I swear to god is jaw hit the floor. He sat their gawking at me, and I shrugged my shoulders and continued to walk towards Tristan. Guys started to look at me, and I tilted my head down, and stood behind Tristan.
“ Ugh- Tristan,” I mumbled. He turned around and a huge grin plastered onto his face.
“ Hey May,” he said grinning. I scowled at him, and he let out a little chuckle. “ So what’s up Hun?” He asked. I ignored that comment and sighed.
“ Don’t wait for me after school,” I said. I went to turn around to leave but he caught my wrist.
“ Why?”
“ Im going to my friends,” I said blushing from all the eyes on me.
“ Already made friends? Oh no…. they are not friends they are freaks,” he let out a laugh. He said it extremely loud, and pointed over at Zoe. I saw her face drop, and she looked at me, and did a faint smile. I saw her lips quivering. I turned my attention back to Tristan, and I brought my hand up, and slapped him across the face.
“ Yo better watch your mouth! You don’t speak like that about my friends, you little arrogant son of a-,” I was cut off when I was shoved to the left. Tristan stood their glaring at me. I took back my stand and tilted my head up and glared at him. “ You better watch what you do,” I said evilly. I turned on my heel, and walked away from him, and sat down next to Zoe. Everyone at the table was gawking at me. I looked at Zoe and she just sat there looking at me. I touched my cheek. “ Do I have something on my face?” I asked.
Chris started to laugh and he shook his head. I looked at the rest of the guys and they were all grinning and I looked at Zoë, and the look in her eyes brought all this happiness to me.
“ Your something,” Chris said looking at me. I smiled and shook my head.
“ She has a death wish,” Zoe laughed. I looked over at her and let out a laugh shaking my head. A second bell rang and everyone sprang out of their seats.
“ Lunch is over know?” I asked. Zoe nodded her head and I pouted, and someone pinched my cheek, and I looked over and saw Ryder standing their smirking at me.
“ Your cute when you pout,” He laughed. My face went bright red and I swatted his hand away from me. He started to laugh and I rolled my eyes.
“ Im. Not. Cute.” I said glaring at him.
“ Hmm,” He replied biting his lip. I rolled my eyes, and turned to leave and then stopped on my heel.
“ Chris!” I called out after him.
“ yeah?” he asked walking back to me.
“ I just remembered I have detention after school-,” I started to say but he broke out into laughter’s.
“ It’s your first day and you got a detention!” He croaked. I sighed.
“ Yes…. BUT! It wasn’t my fault!” I cried throwing my hands up in the air.
“ It’s cool… My brother actually has football practice, so he can just pick you up, and bring you back to my place,” He smiled.
“ But- I thought you said he was already driving us?”
“ He is but we gotta another ride,” he smiled.
“ oh… okay,” I smiled. Then he brought out his phone and took a picture of me, I looked at him confused. “ Chris? Why did you…?” I asked cocking my head.
“ So my bro knows who you are when he brings you home,” he smiled. He pressed a button on his phone that looked at me happily. “ Okay I sent your picture to him.”
“ I probably look like an idiot,” I sighed shaking my head.
“ You gotta phone?” He asked. I nodded my head and he handed me his phone, and I typed in my number and saved it. “ I’ll text you after you get out of detention!” HE smiled turning away. I waved goodbye and I turned around and saw Ryder looking at me.
“ You’re going to his house?” he asked. The way he said his was so….
“ yes, I am going to Chris’s house,” I said putting a hand on my hip. He smirked at me, and took a step closer to me, and I took a step back but he put his hand on the lower part of my back, and brought me closer to him, and brought his face down to mine, and I felt his lips touch my ear
“ Your mine,” he said simply and then let me go and turned around and left…. He… did…. What…. I stood their dumbfounded looking at him, and then I stomped my foot and felt my face go bright red. Me? I do not belong to anyone! I turned around and ran to history class fuming. Before I knew it I was in photography, and I walked in and saw Ti and Rain sitting at a table with two other guys laughing. I sighed, and when the door closed Rain and Ti looked up at me and stupid grins plastered on both their faces. I growled underneath my breath, and sat down at a table farthest away from them. I put my head down on my desk and closed my eyes.
“ Mayella,” I heard
