21

Told by Isibell. She gets an unpleasant surprise. :P

"F**k." I hissed as I walked into first hour. ...And... Cue panic attack. I turned and ran into the girl's bathroom, locking the door behind me.
Goddess, he's not supposed to be here, not while he's like this... WHY IS HE HERE??
I heard myself gasping for air, but not being able to get any. Goddess, please... not here.... please...
I felt a hand on my shoulder. "You knew, didn't you?" I said through my teeth, still panting. "You knew he came back."
He waited until my heart regained control of itself before he answered. "Yes."
"Why the f**k didn't you tell me?"
He paused. "I don't know... It seemed like a good idea at the time."
I laughed bitterly. "At the time... What happens now?"
He sighed and knelt down next to me. "Nothing... He wouldn't dare try something and reveal himself. He just came to bother you."
"I'm supposed to be able to go back there?" I whispered.
"Mhm."
I let my head hit the wall. "I'm going to be put through Hell today."
"Funny, that's what Gabe said."

I walked into the classroom just as the bell rang and sat down in the only empty seat- where else? Next to Liam.
Don't look at him... don't... I thought to myself. The last thing you need is another panic attack.
Good morning, darling. Miss me?
I squeezed my eyes shut and shook my head.
Really, you didn't?
SHUT UP!
Don't you love me anymore? I still love you, so very much sweetheart.
He  wasn't him... he wasn't him. Shut up... Leave me alone... I-I don't love you.
Oh, but you love Mike?
I tried blocking him out- I couldn't take listening to his voice, my voice was trying to tear itself from my chest.
...You'll be okay... Michael thought.
Right...

I stormed through the front door into Gabriel's arms. "F**k, f**k, f**k, f**k, f**k, f**k, f**k, F**K!!" I muttered between breaths.
"Judging by the string of f-bombs that just fell from your mouth, the first day of school was... bad?" He asked, closing the door.
"Worst day ever. Michael, by the way, went flying to clear his mind. He hates today more than I do."
"That must be saying something." He kissed my forehead.
"Liam was everywhere... he's still everywhere... He could be anywhere. He could be here." My voice rose in pitch, making me sound... crazy.
"Shh... Izzy, darling, breathe. I don't think your body can take another panic attack."
True... I had three today... Not healthy.
"I'm not truly safe until he comes back to his senses." I sighed.
"You have us here." Gabe tried.
"But does that mean I'm truly safe?"
Gabe bit his lip. He knew that if Liam wanted me, nothing would stop him. "You're safer than you would be alone."
I tousled his hair. "You're right, hon... I just wish that was good enough."

Author's Note

So while writing the second half of this chapter, I feel like I was becoming detached... Like something was wrong, but I couldn't pinpoint it... Help? Please? Or am I being too paranoid?

*Make Me Believe* please don't kill me for taking so long! I tried, I really did! And look, there's two more chapters up instead of just one! :D
