Hey its blackthorn again... Heres another chapter. I hope you enjoy and don't forget to tell us what you think and what we should improve.

It's Monday, the worst day of my life. Kyle was definitely going to be at school, I could feel it in my stomach. I slowly got up and crawled into the shower. Yesterday I had dinner at Itachis place and I met some of his family. He proposed to me even though I knew I had no choice on the matter. Anyway, I said yes and the worst part was that his whole family was watching. I looked at my reflection. I barely got any sleep last night so I had bags under my eyes. I looked terrible, so I got out some make up and used it to hide the bad stuff and to lighten my face. I wasn't doing it to impress Kyle, I was doing it to show him that I was happy without him. If he saw me with bags under my eyes then he would think I missed him so much that I couldn't sleep. I slipped on my school uniform. I looked down at the ring Itachi gave me. If I wore it to school no one would notice so what's the problem? I slipped the ring back on my finger and headed out the door. Again Itachi was sitting in his car waiting for me. "You know you don't have to take me to school every morning" I opened the door and hopped in. "Your wearing the ring" I'm betting he didn't expect it. I looked at the ring again. "Yeah, I don't think anyone will notice anyway and if they do ill just say its the only finger it would fit on." I buckled in as Itachi headed for school. There was a question that kept wandering into my mind. "You said you liked me, but we didn't even meet that long ago, " he looked like he was pondering over the question. "My mom recommended you because she thought we could be together happily" he started."apparently I was there when you were born. My mother told me I wouldn't let go of you" For some reason I couldn't not believe him, deep down it felt true. "Thank you for telling me this, " I said looking down. Itachi pulled into a parking spot at the school. I jumped out of the car and went ahead. "Wait Lizzy" he called out to me. "I just need to think" I said without stopping. When I got into the school I remembered that today was going to suck. I hope Kyle doesn't try and screw things up between me and Itachi. I reach my locker and Meg comes skipping over to me. "Hey Lizzy guess what!" I put a smile on my face. "You found my missing unicorn?" I joked. She laughed "now, sorry, but I did get asked out on another date with Sasuke" she said happily. "Wow, good job" I faked cry "my girl is growing up too fast." I picked up my books for first class. "So how was it with Itachi?" She asked and I held out my hand for her to see the ring. "Oh my god is that the same ring he got at the mall?" She admired the diamond. "Yeah, he proposed in front of his whole family" I whispered so no one would hear. "And you said yes?" I gave her the 'can it be more obvious' look. "Yeah, I couldn't embarrass him in front of his family. Anyway, I have no choice on the matter. I'm just glad he did it and he also said he liked me" I also told Meg what he said on the way to school. "Wow" was all Meg could say. The warning bell went off so I waved bye to Meg and headed to class. Everything was normal so far and I haven't seen Kyle but I heard from the gossip girls that he was actually back. I walked up to my locker and grabbed my lunch box. An arm slithered around my waist and I was pulled back into someone's arms. This smell was all too familiar. "Let go of me" I wiggle and try to get out of his grip. He put his face in the crook of my neck and breathed in. "I said let go of me." I growled. "I like girls when they're feisty" he chuckled. "Get your hands off of MY Lizzy!" Meg came running around the corner. This gave me time to get away while he was focused on Meg. I was now standing 5 feet from him. "Good, now if you ever touch her again, I'll beat you to a bloody pulp" she said "the only thing holding me back from doing it now is I'd rather not get expelled from school." He smirked at her. "Oh yeah?" He grabbed my arm and pulled me close to him again when I was least expecting it. He barred his face in my hair. "You smell so good" by then some of my other friends gathered around Meg and held her back. "Let me go! I want to castrate him! Let me rip off his tiny little balls!" She screamed, but they managed to hold her back. Kyle pushed my hair out if his way and licked my neck. "Let go of me, you bastard!" I tried to get out of his grip. "You taste good too, " he mumbled in my ear before he bit it. "Get your hands off of her" I could hear Itachi say before Kyle was pulled back and punched in the face. Kyle tried to get back at him with his own punch, but Itachi dogged it and gave him a kick to the stomach. Kyle toppled over, but he couldn't get up. I fell down on my knees out of shock. "Lizzy" Itachi ran over and grabbed me. "Thank you Itachi!" I wrapped my arms around him and sobbed. "It's okay, " he rocked me back and forth. "What do you think you're doing touching my girl like that" Kyle managed to stand up. "She's not yours" Itachi shot a glare at him. "So your the guy she mentioned, she thinks she has you" Kyle laughed. "I don't know who you are but if you ever touch Lizzy again ill kill you" Itachi's eyes looked like he really would kill him. To put it simply, he was pissed. Meg ran over to me and held me in her arms. "Thank you so much Itachi" she looked like she was on the verge of tears. Itachi handed me over to Megan and stood up. "And what makes you think I'm going to stop even with your little treats?" Kyle still had a smirk on his face when he went at Itachi again. Itachi dogged and punched him in the chest, he did a round house kick to his stomach. While Kyle was laying on the floor, Itachi got above him and punched him in the face repeatedly until teachers came running and pulled

Him off of Kyle. Kyle's face was all bloody and he was barely conscious. "Go back to where you came from" Itachi said. I ended up going unconscious. When I woke up I was lying in the nurse's office. The principal was sitting in the waiting room with Itachi. I tried to get up but my leg was all wobbly. Itachi came running in and helped me stand. 'What is wrong with me, I didn't get hurt so why am I all wobbly?' I hold on to him until I regain my balance. "Thanks what happened?" I let go of him and straightened up my clothes. "Kyle got expelled and I've just been suspended." Itachi hugged me. "Thank you so much Itachi" I hugged him back. "Who is that guy and why would he touch you?" He pulled back and held my face so I would look at him. "Kyle is my ex boyfriend. We dated for 2 years and he cheated on me because I wasn't good enough. After he dumped me, he moved to be with her. That was half a year ago and he called me like two days ago saying he wanted me back" I explained. He looked a little hurt "why didn't you tell me, " he hugged me again. "I couldn't" I whispered into his chest. "Um, excuse me. Itachi why don't you take Lizzy home to rest, she must be shocked." The principal butted in. "Yes lady tsunade" he took my arm and led me to his car. When we got out of the school, Kyle was standing on the sidewalk. He spotted me and waved. I shivered causing Itachi to hold me closer. He was glaring at Kyle who was smiling at us. "Don't worry, I won't let him touch you again, " he whispered and leaned down to kiss me. When he pulled away, he smirked at Kyle. This time it was Kyle, who was glaring. Itachi opened the car door for me and went around and got in. Kyle never took his eyes off of me and it creeped me out. "So your birthdays next week, is there something you would like?" He asked glancing at me. "Hmm surprises me" I smiled. He sat in thought "alright, you will love it, " he took my hand in his. When we got to my place no one was home. Todd and Ryan left yesterday and my parents were at work. Itachi picked me up, bridal style. "I can walk" I protested. "Shh, " he quieted me as he took me inside and laid me down on my bed. He went to turn around and leave, but I grabbed his arm. "Please don't leave" I muttered half asleep. Not to brag or anything but my bed is the most comfortable thing in the world. It's like I got it by collecting all 7 dragon balls. Anyway, I got really sleepy but I didn't want Itachi to leave. "Alright, " he sat down on my bed. I cuddled up to his chest, causing him to lay down. He wrapped his arms around me. His warmth and my bed caused me to fall asleep really fast.
