Ohhhhh goshhhh! I've been gonna for so long *0*!

Sorry I had finals and I really wanted to study.

...

"Ok guys it's time to switch partners!"

Heathers voice rang through the auditorium. The class groan in sync while some of them looks relief to switch.

"Now guys you know I like to mix it up! So stop your whining and get it to together people!"

Snap the sassy Asian. My brown eyes widen slightly at her switch of mood. Heather starts to switch teams, but I slowly tune her out. All I was focus on how sore my body is. Well, my legs and other areas. I rubbed my hidden wrists. They were really bruised up. Mal has a really right grip. I look at Mike who looks back at me with a happy smile. I actually didn't exactly tell him what happen two nights ago. And I wasn't planning to. I know it's stupid, but I can't bring myself to do so! Sides Mal did it, not Mike so it's between me and Mal. I shift my weight as I hissed inwardly in pain.

"Mike and Amber you are partners" Heather stated. While spacing out my ears pick up the words 'Mike', 'Amber' and 'partners'. I shook my head and look up to see Heather smiling, but it wasn't genuine and her eyes had a sly gleam to them. What is she up to? My train of thoughts came to an end when Mike's voice interrupted them.

"Awesome!" Mike cheers as he took my right hand and spun me. I giggle and did a triple spin with his help. Bad mistake. I double over in pain as I landed on my knees. My body shut down from the pain and I felt faith.. Mike gasp and came to my aid.

"You ok?" He cooed into my left ear making me blush. I look up at him with blurry vision and a weak smile and nodded. Mike help me up and pats my head.

"You gave me quite a scare, partner!" He flashed a teeth grin trying to cheer me up. I work a bit. I flash him one of my teeth grin, before I could speak I was cut off by an annoying voice.

"Ey! Mike my partner!" Snaps the sassy voice. Me and Mike turn our heads to see an orange girl with big puffy purple hair. She tugs Mike wrist and pulls him to her side.

"I ain't switching, so you better find a new partner, shorty" Anne Maria sound rudely to me. I gritted my teeth as I rolled my eyes. Some of the students were giggling and 'oh'-ing like kids. But I was not going to let her talk to me like that!

"Ohhh, 'shorty' so creative ya walking pumpkin" I snap back as crossed my arms. Anne Maria smile fell off her face and she steps forwards towards me with a sneer.

"Oh, no one disrespects the tan ya fugazi landmine (fake skinny) bitch" She spat at me with a smirk. The comment made everyone go nuts.I arched my sharp eye brows in anger. What the hell did she call me?

"What?" I ask in the midst of rage.

"You're in Canada you Jeresey wannabe! Speak English or Canadian" I shouted irritatedly

"Looking all fuck up with your fucked up eyeliner and long as nails, bet you can't even clean your vagina" I said bluntly to her. The class bursts into a laughing fit as Anne Maria left eye twitch.

"Hold up! Bitch said that again so I can beat that ass!" she threaten rinsing her right hand to slap me. But Mike grabs her wrist and pulls her back. Anne Maria roars in anger and slaps Mike. The spikey hair boy gasp and hunched over, his lips tucked in and his left eye closed shut.

"OW! Your lucky I am against animal abuse!" snapped in a old man's voice. I look over and saw Chester. The guys 'oh' and the ladies gasps. I couldn't help but to snicker in amusement. Chester still grumpy as always. Chester gasps returning back to Mike. Aw, I didn't get to say hi or good-bye. Mike looks at Anne Maria who was fuming with rage.

"Oh, who needs ya anyways!" She barks with one last slap to Mike's face she walkes away.

"What happen? Forget I'm just glad we aren't partners. Jeez, she drove me crazy all she wanted to do was make out. Like doesn't she know I have a girlfriend? Seriously, you think people would respect that" he ranted to me as I shifted my eyes around guilty.

"Yeah, w-who does that?" I stuttered as I felt my heart sink. Oh, gosh I'm a terrible person. The crowded around us dispers.

…...

Mike saw the sudden mood change in Amber. He cleared his throat and smiles.

"But it was pretty cool how you stood up for yourself" He cooed as he grabs her wrist softly, but Amber jerk it back as she hiss.

"Ow!"

…

I hissed in pain as Mike touch my injured wrist. I slip my hands in my baggy sweater to heal.

"You ok?" Mike asked concerned as he stood in front of me. I gave him a false smile and nod.

"Yes, I just hurt my wrist from practicing my ballet routine" I lie through my teeth. The taller boy arched his left brow with a frown.

"How did you hurt your wrist? Where dancing with her hands?" He asked curiously as he look at me. I felt myself get corned real quick.

"Uh, I-I uh FELL! Yeah, I tripped over my ballet laces and fell!" I said confidently. The class bell rung I felt my heart leap with joy. Thats my cue to get the hell out of here.

"Well, see ya later partner!" I said nervously as I bolted out the room as fast as my injured legs could move. And just for the record it wasn't really fast.

…...

Mike watch as Amber disappear in the crowded. Still a bit unconvinced of the story she told him.

'She said she trip over her ballet laces. But ballet shoes laces needs to be tied tight to her ankles so they wouldn't fly off. And the ballet laces aren't very long. Something seems a bit fishy here.'

He said to himself as he grab his pack and left the room. He felt his gut twist.

'Why did she lie?' Mike thought sadly. And out of nowhere he was body slammed against the wall all thanks to the quarterback Lightning and his followers. Mike's head got slam against the hard cement wall.

"Sha bam! Touch down!" He cheers as he ran down the halls flexing his arm muscles with his friends following behind. Mike lays on the ground passed out as his head pounded. With a quick gasp Mike chuckles darkly stoods up tall. His right eye cover with his dark brown bangs.

"Well, it's this a terrible turn of events?" he said to himself as he chuckle more. Mal's evil grin spread across his face as he began to walk in search of a certain girl.

...

I was able to be mobile myself outside away from Mike without causing myself anymore damage. I sigh as I felt guilty. I never really like lying to Mike, but I had no other choice. What was I suppose to say 'Hey, Mal raped me while I was flirting with Vito?'

I shook my head as I felt more sick. I can't do that to myself or him. So might as well suck it up. I straighten up and took a deep breath and head home. As I walked I saw a blurry figure with red hair. After a few steps I saw it was Zoey! I stop and I switch my directions making my way to her. I really messed up. She was very nice to me and I repaid her by trying to steal her boyfriend. How low can I get? I have to apologize for what I did! I made my way over to her slowly and nervously. What if she rejects my apology? OR hits me or worse! Her back is turn maybe I can make a run for it! No! Face her like a woman!

I was so conflicted with myself as I mold on the idea to say sorry. With a slap to the face and a deep breath I stood up straight and called out her name.

"Zoey!" I stood a couple feet away from her. Zoey turn with a smile, but when our eyes lock she frowns.

"Oh, it's you" She spat with disgust as she crossed her arms. I felt her hate hit me in the face. Well I wasn't expecting a happy response anyways. I took a deep breath and clear my throat.

"I want to say I'm sorry about what happen at Heather's party. It was uncool and I really want to be friends. I'm really sorry could you ever forgive me?"

I asked softly and quickly as I look at the ground nervously.

…..

Zoey scowled Amber for a while not sure if she should forgive her. But she really wants to be friends with Amber she seem sweet and nice the first day they met. And it takes a lot of guts to admit that you were wrong. Zoey smiles softly as she place a hand on Amber's shoulder. Making the smaller girl look up at her with hope in her eyes.

"I forgive you everyone makes mistakes. Just promise not to do it again?" The redhead ask kindly to the shorter female. Amber smiled happily and nods.

"I promise! Thankies Zoey!"

Amber chirped happily. The girls giggle and hugged it out.

…

I was heading home happy as could be. Me and Zoey made up and plan to have lunch together tomorrow! It feels so good to lift that burden off my shoulders. I hum a gleeful tone as I made my way home. I made a left turn to my block, but suddenly I felt my body get slam against a wall. My heart starts to pick up speed as I fear consume me. I took in heavy breath as I felt my knees shake. I look up slowly scare to see my attacker. When my eyes made contact with their I felt my heart stop.

"M-Mal?" I squeak softly. Not this again. He had his hands pin by the sides of my head as his body pressed to close against mine. He smirks down at me as I look away from him not wanting to stare into those cold eyes. But that didn't make him all to happy. He slaps my right cheek and slams be roughly against the wall.

"Look at me!" he shouted in a dark tone. I felt my eyes swell up with tears as pain revisited my body, but did as told. I look up at him with puffy wet eyes. My misery caused him to smile as he cups my face into his hands.

"Hello Angel" He cooed in my ear with his dark voice. I sniff as I felt a knot form in my throat. Mal strokes my cheeks with his thumbs. I hiss in pain when he touches the tender area where he slapped me at.

"Such a beautiful face ruined by markings. You know if you would have been a good girl I wouldn't hurt you...badly" He chuckles at his own sick joke. I stare at him with pure hate and spit in his face. Mal took a step back in disgust as he wipes his face with his hands. I took this chance to kick myself into gear and sprint out of the corner he had me in. But the pain for the sexual abuse weigh me down. I felt myself get shove on the floor in a dark alley. I knock over some trash cans in the process of my down fall. I cried out in pain as I felt my body form new bruises. I heard slow steps coming my way and I look up to see Mal towering over me with rage blazing in his eyes. He reaches down and wraps his long skinny fingers around my neck. With unknown strength he lifts me up the ground choking and slams my back harshly against the brick wall. I felt my mind go blank at the pain he is causing me. He slams me twice more in a choke hold as he grip tighten around my throat. He stops his actions and took deep rough breath. After I got my mind somewhat straight I claw at his hands on my neck as I try to break free, but he wouldn't allow it. He lower me to eye level as he grips my face with his free hand tightly as he force me to look at him.

"That wasn't nice, Angel" he said spitefully. My eyes sting with the new tears forming in my eyes as I shook with fear. He sucker punch me in the gut and releases me from the choke hold. As soon as my body made contact with the ground I curl up in pain and threw up my lunch. Tears slip down faster from eyes as I whimper at the punch that paralyzed my body. Mal lower himself as he grabs a handful of my hair making me look up again.

"See what you made me do? You have no one to blame, but yourself!" he shouted as he yanks my locks harder. I cried out louder in pain as I gasps for air. Mal gave me a sneer before letting go of my hair.

"What I want to know is why you haven't told Mikey boy who you are? Are you trying to run away from who you really are, Angel?" He said to me as he exam him fists for any bruises.

"Because it seems like your plan is failing" the tall boy taunt. I slowly sat up against the wall as I wipe my mouth. I stare at the ground absentmindedly, but I heard every word he said.

"Or better yet why haven't you told the cops on me about what happen two years ago and two nights ago? Are you stupid?" he asks as he stares me down. I slowly blink and look down at my wrist and place a hand on the bracelet Mike gave me that secretly giving me hope. When Mal saw the girl do so his smirk widened as he shook his head.

"More look stupidly in love. You're in love with that idiot aren't?" he teases in a mocking tone. I shift uncomfortably at the truth as I sat quietly.

"Oh, this is priceless! So basically I can get away with anything all because you want to protect your lover. What a stupid girl, but I'll keep that in mind" he says with a malevolent smile. He squat down and lifts up my chin.

"See ya around, Angel" he places a kiss on my lips. Surprisingly the kiss is soft compare to last time. I slowly melt in the kiss and I slowly return the kiss. Mal smirks and breaks the kiss.

"That's a good girl" he cooed softly as he strokes under my chin making me shy away with a little smile. Mal chuckles, but it wasn't an evil chuckle it was a sweet chuckle. He got up and held his hand out to me.

"Come on" he said bluntly with a blank stare. I felt myself pout missing the soft side of him already, but did as told and grab his hand. He pull me up gently and stands me up properly. I look up at him and felt fear grow back into my heart.

"Thanks" I mutters as I bit my lower lip. Mal didn't respond, he just took my hand and led me out the alley.

"Where do you live?" he ask boredly looking around. My body ache, but I did my best to walk faster so I wouldn't upset him. I look around my surroundings and saw I was at my block. I point ahead to the building of apartments.

"There" I whisper. He nodded and began to walk towards my apartment. I limp in pain trying to move faster, but the more I move the more painful it became to walk. Mal notices my limping and rolls his eyes. He quickly scoops me up bridal style and starts walking to my apartment. I look up at him as a blush grace my cheeks, but he just stare straight ahead. I slowly lean my head on his shoulders as I look ahead too. I smile to myself as I felt safe. This is nice.

After a silent 20 minute walk we made it to my apartment. Mal places me down gently and shoves his hands in his pockets. I nervously open the door and look back at him.

"T-thanks again" I stammered. Mal shrugs nonchalantly and finallys looks down at me.

"Whatever, see you around Angel" he says coolly and gave me a peck on the lips before going. I watch his retreating figure as I place my hand on my lips. Oh my. I went inside slowly and went to take a long shower and treat my wounds.

…

Oh jeeezzzz MAl you are one confusing bitch! Sorry for the late update ! And for any errors.

also for those who are wondering about Mal's change of attitude in an abusive relationship the abuser tends to have Bi-polar disorder so in this case where mal beat up Angel and then suddenly became 'nice' is proof of that. So this will happen during their time together.
