•••••••••••••••••••

"What happened?" Marcel exclaimed immediately rushing towards Louis, taking his hand softly in his.

"Nothing," Louis muttered, yanking his hand back, but the look of hurt made him soften his hard features.

In all honesty it was something, but that something had to do with Zayn and Louis, and their personal lives.

Long story short they were in deep shit Sunday night and just barely made it out alive thanks to Louis' pocket knife. They didn't kill anyone but they defiantly wounded the shithead who tried to hurt them.

Except Louis wasn't ready to tell Marcel that, he would tell him.

Just not at that moment.

"Baby, it's nothing, just got into a little fight is all," Louis said quietly kissing Marcel's cheek, shrugging at the gasps that rang out through the halls as the onlookers could see exactly what they were doing.

"With who?" Marcel demanded. Candy & Niall stood off to the side, Candy trying all her might to keep her focus on Marcel and Louis but she to was dying to ask Zayn what had happened. Yet, she couldn't bare herself to turn to his direction as he stood brooding to the side, leaning against Marcel's closed locker. Amber eyes cast down, his hand holding his other hand that was wrapped with a bandage.

Candy took a deep sigh, leaving Marcel who Louis was talking to in a rushed tone trying to convince the frantic taller boy that nothing horrible had happened, that those who had attacked him had gotten it worse.

"Zayn, are you okay?" Candy asked softly.

Zayn scoffed, "Does it look like I'm okay?" He asked instead, his eyes meeting Candy's brown eyes. Candy flinched and turned to walk away.

"I'm sorry, I hope you get better soon," and she slowly began to back away.

"You're such a dick you know," an Irish voice boomed out.

Zayn looked up, his face masking the surprise that flitted across it.

"You could be a lot nicer about things, instead of being such a douche," Niall said, coming up closer towards Zayn, slightly pushing Candy to the side who stared helplessly at the scene. Marcel looked up from where he had been quietly talking to Louis. Louis glanced between Zayn and Niall and calmly walked towards Zayn placing a arm across Zayn's stomach.

"Don't do anything," Louis whispered. Cause in all reality Zayn could beat the shit out of Niall.

Zayn didn't listen. "Well you blonde freak, what the hell are you gonna do about it?" Zayn said pushing Louis away, Marcel quickly walked towards Louis who was surprised but not taken aback by Zayn's actions.

Knowing Zayn had a horrible temper, there really wasn't anything Louis could do, but he could try.,

"Zayn, stop it's not worth it, what's gotten into you?" Louis demanded.

"Freak's Tryna tell me what to do!" Zayn shouted, coming face to face with Niall. Niall sighed and smiled.

"I said what you are, not what you should do," Niall said.

It happened in seconds, one second Niall was smiling smugly the next he was wincing in pain as Louis was holding Zayn who was thrashing his arms around Louis trying to get at Niall.

"You're the freak, hurting a girls feelings like that," Niall spat.

Candy was standing to the side her hand to her mouth, watching the scene unfold in front of her.

Marcel was staring speechless, what was going on?

Everyone around them wasn't talking just anticipating someone's actions.

Zayn got a mischievous look to his face, "Oh wow you like her don't you? Why don't you two get together then," he said, still trying to get out of Louis' grasp.

"I-I," Niall said at loss for words.

"Oh right, cause she likes me, guess even a freak girl wouldn't like you huh blondie?" Zayn said.

"Hey!" Marcel said fiercely finally deciding enough was enough.

"Don't call her a freak, she's my best friend," He said defiantly, taking Candy's hand in his and hugging her, telling her she wasn't a freak and Zayn was a dick.

Candy frantically shook her head. Marcel wasn't helping, Niall wasn't helping. No one was helping, they didn't understand.

"No, none of you understand anything," she said quietly. She turned around and backed away, her shoulders shaking. She disappeared around the corner.

All of the guys stared after her. Marcel straightened up, what was going on with his friend? Has he been so intuned to his own troubles he forgot about her?

"Uh...shouldn't someone go after her," Louis asked awkwardly, biting his lower lip. He never was helpful with a girls feelings, he hated the sight of them even getting remotely emotional. Which is why he just got one, fucked them, and left them no strings attached.

Marcel nodded and he was about to run in the direction Candy had went. Ignoring the cool stares that all the other kids were giving them.

"I'll go," Niall said immediately. His eye never leaving the spot where Candy had disappeared too.

"Of course," Zayn spat.

Niall didn't even look at him and just ran after Candy, flipping Zayn the finger who just laughed harshly.

Marcel gave Louis a helpless look, Louis let Zayn go and went and wrapped his arms around Marcel, placing his head on Marcel's chest.

"She'll be okay, let them handle things out themselves, she'll tell you soon enough," Louis whispered placing a kiss on Marcel's cheek. Marcel immediately melted into the action, Louis just had that crazy of an effect on Marcel. Two seconds touching and Marcel was putty in his hands.

They didn't see Zayn disappear towards where Candy had run off too, just a couple seconds later.

Marcel and Louis were lost in their own happy little world.

But for how long?

"Babe, it's okay," Louis repeated. Marcel shook his head.

"No, it's not, why is Zayn so mean? Why is he..." Marcel didn't continue, he was about to say why Zayn was as mean as Louis...but maybe that wouldn't be the best road to take.

"Zayn has his secrets, just like you have your secrets and I have my secrets," Louis said quietly, taking ahold of Marcel'a hand as the bell rang. It signalled they had 10 minutes to get to class or be late for first hour.

"And one day when he's ready he'll share them, or he won't, he'll just decide to stop being so cold, but don't blame him it's not his fault. Just like it's not your fault whatever happened to you happened or anything else. Just like it's not my....My fault," Louis said, though he said the ending a little more quietly.

"Are your secrets really that bad?" Marcel said looking down at Louis with sad green eyes.

Louis shrugged, "lets just say what didn't kill me...never made me stronger," he said, and they walked silently to class, (after Marcel opened his locker to grab his books and Louis had shrugged saying he left his with Zayn)

"But one day I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours okay babe?" Louis said.

"Of course," Marcel told him.

"I love you," Louis said and he kissed Marcel bluntly on the mouth, and they heard girlish gasps behind them in the classroom but neither cared.

"See you soon," Marcel said. Louis left and Marcel walked towards his seat.

There's two things Marcel noticed.

One being no one picked on him and two being...Liam was nowhere to be found.

Somewhere in an empty classroom on the other side of the hall, a girl with long wavy brown hair was crying into the arms of a blonde haired boy.

Because she loved someone who loved another, and she was developing feelings for one who wouldn't even look at her.

Except what she didn't know was that the other someone was staring blankly at the ceiling outside the classroom thinking.

Maybe just maybe he should let his walls come down.

Louis did and now he was happy.

He was happier then before anyways, but the raven haired man shook his head.

He couldn't, he wasn't like Louis.

Louis still had hope for himself, Zayn didn't.

Why couldn't things just pull themselves together and be good for once?
