Chapter 9-The fight

" Did you do something to her, Andrew?" Cleo asked Andrew with a worried look," No. Why would you think that?" Andrew said with a sad look in his eyes mixed with something else Cleo couldn't figure out," I don't know, it just seems strange that she was the one that spread the rumor about you and then the next day she goes missing" Cleo said with an even more worried look.

"She's getting suspicious but I don't want to hurt her, what should I do?" Andrew thought while walking to class. As he was getting lost in his thoughts he heard someone yelling," YOU BITCH! WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER!" he heard someone yell and then heard a smack and a thud as well as crying,"I didn't do anything to her why are you accusing me of doing anything Seth" he heard the faint voice of someone familiar. 'Maybe I should see what Seth's up to?' Andrew thought as he started walking towards the scene when he finds Cleo on the ground bleeding, crying, and bruised on her cheek where he thinks Seth might have slapped her not long ago. He also sees that she's bruised on her legs as well since today she decided to wear a skirt. He can tell Seth has been hitting her for a while as she can't get up to defend herself because of the pain in her legs.

"Why are you yelling and hurting her, Seth she's your best friend," Andrew says as he's about ready to grab his throat and kill him right then but then remembers that there are people around and if he kills him he'll have to kill them all. Though he could, he doesn't because Cleo is also there and he doesn't want her to see any of it. " NO SHE'S NOT SHE'S A MURDERER AND A KIDNAPPER" Seth yells out trying to get him to leave Cleo's side. " And what makes you say that" Andrew says with a deep raspy voice having the face of a killer himself sending chills down everyone's spine.

" DID YOU NOT SEE THE NEWS THIS MORNING SOPHIE IS MISSING, AND SHE" Seth says pointing to Cleo who's looking at the floor crying making everyone look at her," HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT". "And what exactly makes you think that" Andrew says as he starts to get closer to Cleo so he can pick her up and take her to the nurse," SHE SAW THE POST SOPHIE PUT ABOUT YOU AND DECIDED TO KIDNAP OR KILL SOPHIE" Seth yells this one louder as he sees Andrew carrying Cleo in his arms where he should be and not that 'ugly runt' which is Seth's nickname for Cleo when he sees her so close to Andrew like that.

" So you're just going by a theory if that's the case i'm taking her to the nurse and telling the principle about your behavior" Andrew says as he walks away in a hurried yet gentle pace so he doesn't accidentally drop Cleo on the way to the nurse's office.
