'Are you okay maribella?' -counselor

'...'-maribella

'Do you want to tell me what happened?' -counselor

'I guess'- maribella

'Well, I was walking from the lunchroom to my locker to grab the materials I would need for my next class. Well I opened my locker and out came all of these notes.'-maribella

'What did they say?' The counselor asked.

'They all were about how I should kill myself and how I am a waste of space. I have a few in my pocket if you want to read them later.'-maribella

'Okay, then what happened?'-counselor.

'Well I rushed to the bathroom where these girls were and they shredded my clothing and they kicked me and beat me and left me on the bathroom floor alone. My clothes are so ripped that nothing could fix them. I ran into the stall and hid hoping no one would find me and that I would mist die there.'-maribella.

'Do you know who these girls are?'-counselor.

'Well one of them was my partner on class today but all she really did was call me mean names and copy my work.'-maribella.

"Romano, do you by any chance know who maribella's partner was in class today?" The counselor asked me.

"Yeah she was partners with Alyssa." I replied.

"Oh okay well I will have a word with Alyssa tomorrow because school is over and everyone is probably already on their way home." He said.

"Okay. going to go take maribella to all of our teachers who's classes we missed to get our missing work." I said.

"Okay, I will have a word with the principal and then we will talk again tomorrow." He said.

I nodded and we walked to all of our teachers rooms. I got all of our homework and we made our way to the locker rooms.

"Do you want to come in to the locker room? I don't want to leave you alone." I said.

She nodded her head and closed her eyes.

I walked into the locker room. All of the guys saw that Maribella was on my back and all of them left, well everyone except the people that sit at our lunch table.

"~Ve~ brother what happened to Bella?" He asked.

"Are you alright love? How did you get hurt?" Arthur asked.

"Maribella doesn't want to talk about it. We already saw the nurse and the counselor. We got everything that we missed in class and she still wants to watch soccer practice. How about we all get changed and show her some soccer." I said.

"Of course, are you sure you don't want to go home dudette?" Alfred asked.

she shook her head no.

we all got changed and I have Maribella a piggy back ride to the fields.

"you can open your eyes now. I set you on the bleachers and Arthur is going to watch you because he pulled his hamstring and is out for a few weeks. I am making sure no one leaves you alone. We will be on the field. If you need me just have Arthur call me over okay?" I said.

She nodded and I kissed her on top of the head.

Then I ran out on the field to play.

The coach grabbed Gil and Francis. Each of them picked people to play on their teams. We were doing a scrimmage shirts vs skins. I was put on Francis' team. Alfred, Mathew, Antonio, and a few other guys were on my team. We were skins. I took off my shirt and threw it away from the fields. If we weren't doing any physical work I would probably be freezing. I had a few goosebumps on my arms but other then that nothing.

-Maribella's POV-

Roma took off his shirt. His pecs and abs were very toned and muscular. He had practically no body fat. He wasn't huge but he was far from scrawny. Most of the boys on the soccer team were lean. Roma looked extremely good. He turned and noticed me watching him and gave me a slight smirk as if he were saying 'like what you see?'. I blushed and looked away. I looked towards Arthur who was busy doing work.

'hey Arthur, how did you hurt yourself?' I messaged him.

"Well, I was doing this new thing called Parkour and I was leaping from one building to the next and I made it but the impact hurt my leg so I had to go get checked out." He said.

'Oh I have heard of parkour. I thought it was just fleeing with style. Well anyways, what do you like to do? Like what are your hobbies? I want to get to know you more because I want to be your friend. If you want to that is.' I messages him.

"of course I would love to be your friend. Hmm, in my spare time I like to play music. I like to bake, I enjoy soccer (of course haha), I like to keep up with current events by reading the newspaper, I also love to write. I really enjoy creating stories. It is how I really enjoy spending my time." He said.

Just as I was about to ask more about him my phone (which I was charging in the counselor a office, so it is charged and on now) started vibrating. My dad was calling me.

"Hmm?" I hummed. I don't really talk so that is how I answer calls.

"Maribella I need you to come home as soon as possible. Something has happened!" My dad said frantically.
