School trouble

Chapter 11

"Phil!" Sam ran to him and he engulfed her in his arms.

"Shh… it's ok. I'm so sorry. Did they hurt you?" his voice was shaking and filled with concern.

"No."

"Ok what happened?"

"They just shouted really." She shrugged.

"They shouldn't have done, it's not your fault it's mine." He hugged her tighter.

"No it's not. I can make decisions for myself." She sighed. "They just don't understand."

"Come on."

"Where are we going?"

"Back to my house. You can't go home like this they'll know you've been crying."

"But what if they see us?"

"They won't. I'll make sure they don't."

"Ok."

When they walked through the door, Lynne gasped.

"What's happened?" she guided them through to the lounge. "Sit down."

"Thank you." Sam smiled at her.

"Now do you want to tell me what happened?"

"My parents don't want me seeing Phil anymore." She leant her head on his shoulder.

"Oh?"

"It's because he goes to Compton." Phil slipped his hand under hers and squeezed gently, encouraging her to go on. "They don't care what I want."

"The school's reputation isn't exactly fair on the students there, some of them are trouble I'll admit that but what school is perfect? Most of the kids there are lovely."

"They don't see it like that."

"Well maybe I should talk to them." she suggested.

"No, they won't listen it'll only make things worse."

"Don't worry about it mum. When they see we're serious they'll come round." Phil looked into Sam's eyes.

"Well I hope so."

"Thank you Lynne. You've been a lot of help. I'm not sure if I can tell my parents yet though."

"Well the longer you leave it the harder it will be and the worse it will be."

"Ok."

"We'll just have to make sure they don't find out." Phil tried to cheer her up.

"Yeah I guess so."
