Cloud's POV

The bell rings signaling the end of 6th period, I quickly grab my things and rush out the door, ignoring Tori and Becca's call for me..

Once I make it to the courtyard yard I hear loud footsteps behind me

"Clouds!"

Zayn..

I just need to clear my head for now, I need to make sure I'm doing the right thing with Chandler

"Clouds!" Zayn's hand reaches my skinny wrist and pulls me back to him

"can you just wait?" Zayn pants

"why should I? You almost killed Chandler! On a roof! With a pocket knife!" I pull my wrist out of Zayn's grasp and run my hand through my hair

"I said I'm sorry! I was drunk and I wasn't thinking straight..I never want to cause you any pain Clouds.."

I look into his brown eyes and see quilt mixed with sorrow, "what do you want?"

"look, all I want is to get you away from Chandler, he is trouble and-"

"like you.." I cross my arms and mumble under my breath looking away from him..he sighs and adjusts his backpack strap raising an eyebrow at me

"and..I just want you to do the right thing, Chandler will just play with your heart and leave you the next day..think about it, has he been acting strange lately?"

I think about it and remember when Chandler kept moving from me when I tried looking at his phone the day of Zayn's party

"there was this once.." I whisper trying not to admit it

"he is no good for you, do the right thing.."

I sigh and just plaster a fake smile on my face, "I'll talk to him..bye.." I turn around and walk my way to Chandler's dorm

Chandler's POV

"wow, these actually look pretty cool!" I stare at the fake lip piercing through the mirror

Brittany stands behind me smiling at her older brother,  "told ya it looks cool.."

Sam did the same lip piercing but added a nose piercing on the right side of his nose, "thanks sis.."

"no problem," Brittany checks her phone and gasps "shit, it's already 4, I'm late for a date!"

Sam goes wide eyed looking at his sister, "and you forget to mention this to me?"

"sorry Sammy, but don't worry.." Brittany smiles heading out the door

"hey, don't forget to take your medication, alright?"

"yea, dad.." Brittany smiles running out the door

"medication?" I step back from the bathroom mirror and face Sam

"uhh, yea.. she has sleeping problems, so she takes sleeping pills to help.. my mom made me make sure to take extra care for her.."

"oh"

I nod making my way to my acoustic guitar hanging up on the wall, I pulled out the pack of cigarettes from the inside of it and smiled..

Don't give me that look..it's the only place I thought of at the moment..

"why don't you ever play your acoustic?" Sam questions

"I stopped playing it after 6th grade.. I had my d- William send it to me last week I think.. I missed it I guess." Sam nods before jumping on his bed and pulling out his phone
