run over - ruel vandijk

• emotionally drained •

he turns his head and looks at me, smiling sadly.

"what?" i whisper softly as a tear escapes my eye. i was in shock.

a tear also falls down his cheek. sam collected his things and walks across the room and sits in the empty chair next to me.

"I-" i begin, but he interrupts me with a hug.

we pull away and i just stare blankly at the door lost in my head.

moments later he finally speaks.
"y/n... what happened? why did you leave me?"

i still stare at the door, "it was getting to hard."

"being friends with me?"

"no-"

"your foster parents?"

i finally make eye contact with him.
he looked so different to when i last had seen him. i bet no one could tell the difference between 11 year old sam and 16 year old sam. -not even this own mum.

but i can.

i nod still staring in his eyes, "they hurt me more. i wanted to tell you i was going but i didn't know how and i knew you'd try and stop me. but they hurt me sam. physically and mentally."

sam closes his eyes as another tear falls down his cheek, "i understand. but you could've told me. or someone, the police maybe."

i just shake my head looking down at my hands, "i tried many times, but my foster dad's cousin was a police officer and would tell him that i'd be lying about what i said." i look at him again, "and i never went to school so i couldn't tell any teachers. so you where the only one who new."

sam put his arm around me and we both just sat there, emotionally drained for a while, ignoring all the smirks and murmurs of everyone else in the class.

it had got to the point in our friendship that we would like 100% not fall in love with each other. we were too good of friends to even think about us dating. so no, we would not ever become something other than friends.

after a while i asked the question that had been bugging me this while time.

"so when did you move to sydney?"

"last year" he answers, "we have family up here, and my parents noticed my grades dropping and me not paying attention in class, i told them it was the school and how crap it is, but it was really because i just missed you."

his arms tighten around me and we just hold each other.
we've got a lot of catching up to do.

just then this guy barges through the door super loudly.
i didn't care until i heard the voice.

"what's up miss!" he yells.

i immediately look up, Ruel.
of course he goes here, he always finds away of squeezing into my life.

mrs cope stares at him in disbelief, "oh great, mr van dijk is here. i really thought i'd get a day without you."

he puts a hand to his heart and fake cries, "that's so mean miss...i... how could you say something like that?!"

she laughs, "shh ruel, why where you late"

he stands up straighter, "well, you know what they say, the best things take time, that's why i'm late."

mrs cope just shakes her head and signals for ruel to sit down.

he walks to the back of the class and i sink in my chair a little so he won't see me, but sams arm was still on me so i couldn't really hide myself.

ruel takes a seat at sams old spot, then he looks at me with a confused look on his face.

mrs cope notices him looking at me "ah, ruel, while you where gone, we had a new student come, her names-"

"y/n" he blurts out.

mrs cope's eyebrows go up, "yeah... um, anyways, she made quite the entrance."
she laughed, so did the class.

sam smiles and i looked at him, i smiled back, gosh it was so good to have him back again.

ruel frowns and looks at sams arm around me, a hint of jealously flashed in his eyes before turning into a smile.

"i'm sure she did."

i look at him with a smirk, "well i hope you didn't run over any poor kids on the way here."

his smile turned into a grin.

"well let's see how long you can keep that smile up, aye?."
he poked out his tongue at me and smirked.

the whole class was staring at us back and forth, looking confused, but no one dared to say anything.
