"Just leave me alone." shouted.
"What did you just say gay boy?"The leader of the gang asked.
"Leave me alone.I haven't done anything wrong." repeated.
"Let's just get one thing straight.Never talk back to me."The boy spat at .
"O.K."

" ?Who's ?Is that the one that's shagging that bird ?"The boy asked .

"That's it.I've had enough of you.Come on boys."The boy said,signalling with his hands for the rest of the boys to come over.
The 6 other boys walked over to where was now lying on the floor.They walked slowly in a gangster way,lifting their legs slightly,so as they looked like they were walking with a limp.
The gang of boys started to beat up.They worked in pairs,each having a job to do.2 of the boys were kicking in the legs,2 were punching him in the stomach,2 were kicking him in the head,and the leader was kicking him in the balls.
"Come on.Our work here's done."The leader said to the rest of the boys.
The gang of boys walked off leaving lying unconcious on the hard,concrete floor.

There was a knock at 's door
"I'll get it!" shouted from her bedroom.
She ran down the stairs and opened the door.
stood there all bruised,blood running down his cheek and his cut hands were clutching his stomach. could see blood soaking through his top.She didn't get a chance to say anything because suddenly fainted and fell on top of her.
"What the hell?Mum!Mum!Come quick it's ."
's mum ran through the living room to the front door where was now holding .
"Oh my God what the hell happened?"
"I don't know mum, but can you please call for an ambulance?"
's mum phoned for a ambulance and 10 minutes later the faint sound of sirens going off in the distance could be heard. 's mum ran out the front door and directed the men to the front of the house,where was still lying in 's arms.

"I'll call you when we get there Mum O.K?"
"Yea sure.Do u want me to come up later?"
"No it's O.K but could you possibly go next door and tell 's parents that has gone to hospital?"
"Yea O.K"
The ambulance drove down the road,onto the motorway,for the 20 minute drive to the hospital


[Chapter 3]

was in the hospital sitting by 's side when the doctor came in
"Hi!Er... was it?"
"Yea"
"We just need to do a few tests and a X-ray to see how much damage has been done and to see if he has broken anything.We'll need a few minutes.Why don't you go get yourself a drink or make a few phone calls whilst we're dealing with ?"
"O.K.I'll go make a few phone calls and I'll see if Mum has got hold of 's parents yet."
grabbed her bag and walked out of 's room.
She made her way down the long,dark corridor and found a phone
"Hello Mum?Have you been next door to 's house yet?"
"I went next door,but no-one was in!"
"Oh OK.I might phone . would want him here."
"Oh Mum?I'm going to stay here tonight with .Is that ok?"
"Yea sure.See you in the morning then?"
"Yea.Bye Mum!" She put the phone down and dialed her and 's other best friend .
"Hey ! is in hospital and i could really do with some company!"
"Hey !What the hell has happened to ?"
"I don't know.He knocked on my door and fainted.He hasn't woken up yet!"
"O.K.I'll be there as soon as i can.Don't worry babes"
"Cheers .Bye"
She put the phone down,turned around and walked down the long,dark,corridor once more.
The doctor comes out of 's room and spots
"O.K.We did a few tests and it showed that their was nothing wrong with except it looks like he has been kicked (the doctor coughs) u know...in that area quite a few times."
"Oh my God!So what's happened because of that?"
"Well.As a result of these actions may have a infection there.But that's it so it's really not anything to worry about.Unless you were and then it would be quite painfull i'm afraid!"
"Is that all then?"
"Well by the looks of it has been beaten up..."
"Oh my God! was beaten up?"
The doctor coughs again
"As i was saying.It appears that has been beaten up.It is quite clear that he has been punched and kicked several times.Now.I would say has been kicked a lot in his legs and the X-ray that we did has shown that luckily he hasn't broken anything but he has sprained his ankle so when he wakes up he will have to use crutches to help him balance properly and to get from A to B."
"So how long will have to stay in here then?"
"Well.That all depends on when he wakes up.But i think that might wake up tonight because he has shown signs that he has moved and this is pointing in the right direction.Once he has woken up i would like to keep him in for another day and then he should be out of here!"
"Thanks alot doctor"
"Now before i leave you,did you get hold of anyone for ?"
"Well my Mum went next door to 's house but no-one was in so she will try later,but i got hold of 's best mate .He would want him to be here!"
"Well O.K then.Make sure you look after your boyfriend!"
smiled." isn't my boyfriend he's my best mate and he's my next door neighbour!"
"Sorry if you think i'm nosy but what about this then?"
"Na!He's my best mate as well.He lives next door to so 's my neighbour too!"
"O.K.Well bye then.Look after him anyway!" the doctor said with a cheeky smile and he walked down the corridor that made shiver.
Thinking of that cheeky smile the doctor flashed made smile as it reminded her of someone.


[Chapter 4]

stood there trying to work out who it could possibly be that had a cheeky grin when suddenly two hands went over 's eyes.The long fingers were cupped over her eyes so that she could not see a thing,and a slight smell of Lynx gave everything away.
turned around with a smile on her face,to reveal the owner of that cheeky grin she was thinking of.
" !" screamed excidetly as she threw her arms around him.
"Hey !" said and put his arms around .
They let go of each other and noticed the cheeky doctor in the corner of her eye giving her a even bigger smile and a wink looking at .
couldn't help but smile.
It had always amazed how could bring a smile to someone's face at the most sad place.He once made smile,even at her own grandmother's funeral!
"So what's up with then?Did he suddenly see his reflection in the mirror?" said with a smile on his face.
Even now,when his best friend was lying in hospital unconcious,beaten black and blue, was still able to be the clown or the court jester.It baffled as to how he could do this,but there was no chance of ever understanding really so she just carried on wondering.
"The doctor told me that he was beaten up" explained and the smile slowly faded from her face.
"He's got a infection because he was kicked in the balls and he has sprained his ankle so when he gets out he'll have to go around on crutches" tears started to form in 's eyes and knew straight away to drop the subject as it was upsetting for .
"Come on .This isn't like you.Your the tough tomboy that everyone loves to hate!You hardly ever cry.This is the second time I've seen you cry in my whole life. your the one that's really tough and you don't care what anyone says cause you'll just go over and smack em one! said,sitting down next to her and carefully swaying back and forth to comfort her. 's head was now buried in his chest and his hands were on the back of her head.
"Thanks .So this is what i needed you for then?!My comforter!"
"Yep.The one and only !"
"Oh .Remember the last time i cried?When you wore my bra and never gave it back for years then 3 years later you gave it back to me and all your blood and sweat was on it from where you wore it as a joke but forgot to take it off for months and didn't wash it?"
"Yea.I remember it.Bra's are really comfortable!"
"Well.Do u remember how you told everyone that it was me that wore your boxers and didn't wash them and that i cried when i gave them back to you cause i was sooo ashamed?Well if you ever even think of telling anyone that i cried today you will never fucking have kids!Got it?"
"Er...Yea... .You wouldn't do to me what you did last time will you?"
"No.Wat do u think i am?"
"Good coz that really hurt!"
"Oh shame.I'm gonna do it twice as hard.See how yaw cock feels after being grabbed and kicked twice as hard shall we?" said laughing.
"Did i ever tell you how much i love you ?"
"Nice try but it aint gonna work!Lets go in and see !"
"O.K" said gulping.
and walked into 's hospital room
took 's hand
"Hey .The doctor said that will probably wake up tonight and then they are gonna keep him in tomorrow and he can go home on Saturday!"
"That sounds great !Are you staying here all that time?"
"Yea.I don't wanna leave him until he's woken up and then once he's awake i need to find out what really happened to him.What about you ?"
"I'll stay here tonight but I've got to go to my new girlfriends house tomorrow.And i can't put it off cause i was supposed to go tonight,but you and need me more!"
"Thanks .You don't have to stay here tonight,but if your sure.So what's this girl called then?"
"It's O.K I wanna stay here tonight.I've already told about the situation and she said she was fine about it"
" ?Nice name!So what does this look like then?"
"Well she's got hair with streaks and eyes."
"Sounds nice!So how long you been going out with her then?"
"About a week and she asked me to come round her's to meet her parents"
"Oh no !Not the parents.That's a big move for you aint it?It's probably the first time you've never been round their house to meet their parents.It's such a big commitment!Is this your longest relationship then?"
"Yea.And i'm proud of it!" said laughing
Then started laughing.
Suddenly they were stopped by a familiar voice...


[Chapter 5]

" ?!?!?!" screeched excitedly.
"Mate how are you?" asked calmly.
"I'm good.I'm a bit tired and........."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY BALLS, WHAT THE FUCK HAS HAPPENED TO MY BALLS?"
"Wel you see the thing is we think you were beaten up and when you were beaten up the people kicked you in the balls a lot and now you have a infection!" said to .
"Jesus Christ!Did they have to kick that area?"
"So are you saying you were beaten up then?" asked
"Yea i can remember being beaten up by a gang of 7 boys"
"Why did they beat you up ?"
" .Are you going out with anyone?"
"Hey!This is the wrong time to be asking out now mate!" said laughing.
"No,I'm not going out with anyone at the moment.Why did you ask a random question like that?"
"Because the leader of the gang said that he had seen me with you and he thought that i was going out with you. he beat me up because he said you were his girlfriend,and because he saw me with you,he thought that i was going out with you!"
"Oh my God " let go of 's hand and put her hands over her mouth
"So you got beaten up because of me?Oh it's all my fault!"
"Hey !I don't blame you for what happened.It's not your fault.It must be a misunderstanding cause like you said, you don't have a boyfriend!"
"Oh .How come your sooo understanding?Your the best friend i could wish for"
"Jee thanks !" said putting his puppy dog eyes on
let go of 's hand and walked over to and hugged him.
"Come on .Remember your my comforter?!I love you both the same cause your my two best friends.How could i choose one over the other anyway i've known you both the same amount of time,and believe it or not,I'm not that cruel!" said laughing
"I believe you babes"
"Hey um .Do u mind if me and stay here tonight with you?" asked letting go of .
"Yea sure you can stay here!" replied
"Erm .I've gotta ask you something.Are you going out with a girl called ?" asked
"Yea.How did you know?Did you hear me and talking bout her earlier?" asked
"No i didn't hear you earlier but when i got beaten up by them boys they asked if you were the boy going out with !I think they might try to hurt you" "Shit!How the fuck do they know about me and ?We've only been going out for a week!"
" it doesn't matter.If one of the boys say their going out with me,then they must know me so that means i know them.I'll tell them to fuck off and you have got nothing to worry bout either.I'm going to fucking kick their arses and they better enjoy it cause that will be the only time they will get anything of me touching them!" said agressively.(I know confusing and sad,just remember i was sooo young when i wrote this!)
" it don't matter!" and both said.
"Yes it does.You know what i'm like.And if it was them hitting me,you would both fight them and you know you would.I love you two sooo much.I hate it when you get two get into fights cause i always think your going to get hurt. that's why i was crying earlier because i was scared for !" explained.
"Your right.We would both fight to help you and OH MY GOD you were crying ?"
"Yea and do u remember what happened to last time he let out that i cried?Wel if u let it out then I'll have to do that do u !"
"O.K.I'll shut up" said sounding scared

It was the day for to go home. had come back from 's to help with .
walked into 's room looking upset.
"Hey guys.I split up with last night!" said.
"Why did you do that ?" and asked at the same time.
"Because of what that gang of boys said to .If they can beat up that bad and they know about then they will probably come after me or even .And i would hate it if she got hurt because of me."
went over to who had a tear rolling down his cheek.
She hugged and kissed him on the cheek.
Then and walked over to help . picked up 's bag that his family had brought in the day before and helped up and got his crutches for him.
"There you go " handed his crutches.

When they got back,they all went into 's house.

She hugged .

As , and got nearer their houses, and 's hands fell apart.

After her bath she got dressed and did her hair and make up(u know all the stuff girls have to do to make themselves pretty.Well you probs now bout all the pain anyway!lol.)[Man how gay am i?Seriously 12 year old was defo not funny!]
After half an hour she was ready to go round to see .By now it was 10:00
She remembered that said he would go round her's at 11:00 but she was sooo bored that she couldn't resist going round his that second.
"Mum,I'm going next door to 's and I'm out all day with and .I'm meeting 's new girlfriend today." called to her mum.
"O.K.Well bye then .Be back by 10:00 O.K?" 's mum replied.
"O.K.Bye!Oh.Bye dad, bye !" she didn't wait for a reply.She walked out the door and walked across her and 's joint front lawn.She knocked on 's front door.His mum answered.
"Hi . is still asleep but you can go and wake him up if you like.He had a early night anyway and he'd love to see you.It'll keep him quiet.Do you know that he never stopped talking about you last night?" 's mum explained.
"Really?He never stopped talking.It doesn't surprise me!I'll go and wake him up then" replied laughing.

opened 's bedroom door.
was rolled up in a ball,with the covers spread out randomly.He wasn't really covered by his duvet and all he was wearing was his boxers. smiled.He looked so sweet and peaceful lying there.She wasn't looking forward to waking him up.
She sat down next to on his bed and kissed him lightly on the head.She played with his hair for a while then shook him slightly.
"Babe.It's .U've gotta get up." stirred a bit and his eyelids started to flicker.
kissed on his cheek and started to fiddle with his hair again.Then she kissed him on the forehead and suddenly his eye's opened.
" ? is that you?"
"Yea it's me.What's all this talk about you talking about me all night then?" asked laughing.
"I'm in love with you babe.I thought i was coming round your's this morning and why didn't you text me back?" asked.
"Well babe.You were supposed to come round mine but i woke up early and i couldn't get back to sleep,so i got ready and came here and i have no credit so i couldn't text you back." replied and caught her breath after answering his question."What time did you send the last text today ?" asked.
"About 3:00 in the morning!" replied laughing.
"Babe,get up.I wanna go for a walk with you before we go see and his new girlfriend" said.
"Oh shit i totally forgot about and this girl.I'd better get up and then I'm all yours!" said laughing.
pulled on top of him.He put his hands on the back of 's head and kissed her passionately.
"Wow!!!We're only 16.Where did you learn how to kiss that good?" questioned laughing.
tapped his nose three times to indicate that it was his little secret and he flashed a cheeky grin to as well.
"Babe.Go and get ready before i snog your face off!Your sooo cute when you give me that grin!!!" said smiling.
"Ok,ok Im going!" said.
He walked out of his bedroom door,collecting some clothes on the way leaving, alone in his room.
looked around 's room.She looked on his walls and staring back at her were faces of Blink 182 Greenday.
Whilst was looking at the posters around 's walls, had sneaked into his room and slowly walked up,behind .He put his hands on 's shoulders and shouted "BOO!"
"OH MY GOD!!!You bastard .I hate you.That's actually not funny!" screamed.
"Sorry babe.I guess I'll have to kiss it better!" started kissing 's neck. grabbed 's hand,walked out his bedroom,raced down the stairs and ran out the front door.
"Come on lets go for a walk!" said catching her breath.
and were walking through the woods(as it was a shortcut) hand in hand.
let go of 's hand and put her arm round his waist.She cuddled up to him and put her head on his shoulder. put his arm round 's shoulder and they carried on walking.


wasn't the kind of girl to scared easily but since was a young child she was always scared of the local woods.She figured that because alot of people had been attacked in those woods,and her friend was nearly killed in them woods,those must have been the reasons why she was scared of them.The first time went to the woods was with and .
got sooo scared that she had to cuddle up to and had to hold her hand.They had come up when they were 7 years old and it was dark(well it was only 5:30 but it was winter which made it darker).And it was hallowen.Every year people went up there to scare little kids.There was a haunted house in the woods and kids stayed there to prove they were tough enough. surprised herself and made it through the nightwell,with the help of and anyway.
and were talking about that night,which made them both laugh.Then changed the subject to something that had been on her mind since the day was beaten up
" are you still sore?It's only been two days.I can't believe how quickly you've recovered!" said.
"It doesnt really hurt anymore it's just my stomach and my balls really!"
"What about your legs.You don't use your crutches and you were only given them yesterday."
"I don't wanna look weird and i've got along fine without them.Do you wanna see my stomach?"
"Ok babe."
lifted his shirt and revelaled a swollen,bruised stomach.
"OH MY GOD!Here,let me make it better!" said,quite shocked by his stomach.
touched his bruises gently and kissed them softly
"It feels better already!" laughed.
cuddled up to again and linked hands with him.


[Chapter 8]

By the time and left the woods it was nearly time to go and meet .They kind of got side tracked and walked the whole way through the woods and got a bit lost.
and made their way to the deserted green and sat on the bench that they had previously the night before.
"Hey there's and " said to .
"Where?Where?I wanna see if 's fit!"
( hit on the leg)
"But she would never be as nice as you " smiled sweetly at .
As and Charrlotte approached and , suddenly realised that the girl was with was her best friend.
"OH MY GOD! ?!" screamed loudly.
" ?!What the hell are you doing here?"
"Erm... do you two know each other then?" and both asked
"Yea!You know when mum didn't want me to go to your school,so she sent me to ?Well. was my best mate there and she was devestated when i left her.I haven't seen or heard from you in like...4 years .What happened?"
"I got my mobile taken off me for wasting my credit on you and i made a huge phone bill from talking to you so i couldn't talk to you anymore" replied.
"Why do you call and why do you call ?" asked,finally butting into the convo.
"Because i could never spell 's name right so i was gonna call her ,but she didn't like it so i called her " answered. "And everyone always called , , to piss her off,cause she hated it so, she sent me a note to call her and she said that she had some mates that already called her " "so i called her ' '."
"But .Why did you leave school?You left and you never really explained." asked.
"Well.Mum heard stories about the school and went to so she sent me to but then i got kicked out so i had to go to .I'm alot happier now, you should join .And you'll have there!" said,giving a cheeky wink.
"But if your mum heard the storys about the school then why did you go there?" asked.
"Because i have lived next to and since i was born and mum said that if i was with them then i could go to that school. and are my bodyguards!" laughed.
"Yea.We have to look out for our baby .She's the baby of our gang!" said laughing.
"Awww leave her alone.Come here babe." kissed on the lips.
"Well.I guess i don't have to ask you if your single or not" said laughing.
(The gang carried on talking for a few hours until 3:00.Then and left so could meet 's family and and went to 's house.)

"O.K. will take my mind off you for a while" agreed.
"Good.Hey!Speaking of ,why don't we go round his now?" asked.
(Before had a chance of answering, switched her sterio off and took 's hand.She closed her bedroom door and ran down the stairs out of her house.)
"You like running out of your house and dragging me behind don't you babe?" asked laughing.
"Yep.It's my daily exersise!" replied,poking her tongue out.
"I always wondered why you were sooo fit!" said licking his lips and putting his arms round .

"You didn't tell her where to meet us did you?" asked.
"I don't need to.Me, and used to always go to the same place.When us three are together,we can only go to that pub.It's our hangout!" replied.
walked down the stairs in a denim mini-skirt and a black halter neck top.She wasn't used to wearing skirts,she usually just wore baggy jeans and a hoody,but she thought change was good.
She never followed the crowd and she always liked to experiment so instead of wearing high heels,she wore a pair of trainers.
knocked on her door.
"Wow!You look amazing babes.Do you know what is wearing tonight?"
"No I don't know what 's wearing tonight.Are you sure i look alright?" asked,looking uncomftable in what she was wearing.
