Emma's p.o.v

The next day I got up as if nothing happened. I showered, did my hair and makeup and went to school. Louis wanted to talk about yesterday but I told him I was fine. I mean I am. Hurt, but fine. I sat down with the boys at lunch since I no longer had anyone to sit with. I didn't even care anymore that it was embarrassing sitting with my brother and his friends. ''How are you?'' Harry asked and sat down next to me with his tray of food, ''better'' I forced a smile. I kept my head low as the others were having their own conversations. Harry tried to talk to me from time to time but he could tell I wasn't in the mood to talk. ''Hey, babe'' the table got quiet and I turned around to see Zayn standing with a smirk on his face. ''Just wanted to say thanks for last night, you were amazing'' he winked and my jaw dropped. What is he trying to do right now. Before I knew it Louis stood up which made Harry stand up too. ''I suggest you leave before I beat the shit out of you'' Louis said clenching his jaw. ''I think it's only fair you all know what a dirty little slut she is. Oh, the things she did to me'' Zayn said with a dreamy voice and the second later Louis' fist was in the air and met Zayn's left cheek. And then all hell broke loose. Zayn were throwing punches, Louis were throwing punches. Harry, Niall, Liam and I were somewhere in the middle trying to break up the fight.


Harry, Liam, Niall and I had been sitting in the library on detention since the fight. We hadn't done anything but trying to stop the fight yet we're sitting in detention. I hadn't seen Louis since he got called to the principal's office with Zayn. ''So uh...Baby Tommo, did you shag him?'' Niall said, always the one with the inconsiderate questions. Everyone turned to me with curious looks. It made me pissed. ''Do I look like someone who fucks someone after knowing them for two weeks?'' I said with an eyebrow raised looking at each of them as they shook their heads. ''Good, any other questions this fine day?'' I asked, ''nope, think we're good'' Liam said and laughed nervously. ''Whatever'' I said and stood up to walk away to another part of the library. I looked at some dusty books when I noticed Harry had walked up behind me. ''Are you okay?'' he asked.
''You already asked me that, Harry''
''I know, I just feel like you're not okay''
''Why wouldn't I be okay? You know I only got trashed talked in front of my friends, my brother started a fight and because of me I got all of you in detention. I'm fine''
''You don't have to do that'' he said a bit lower.
''Do what? What exactly am I doing, Harry?''
''I know you're hurt, angry and sad. You're allowed to show those feelings, you know''
''I can't. Feelings means you're weak. I don't wanna be weak''
''Just because you show your feelings doesn't mean you're weak. You can't keep everything inside, you need to talk about it. Whether it's with your parents, Louis or me. I'll listen. You can't keep everything bottled up inside because one day you're gonna burst''
When I didn't answer he just pulled me in for a hug and I just let him stand there and embrace me.

''Emmeline?'' I was brought back to reality when I heard my mum's voice. Harry and I let go of each other and made our way to where the others were sitting. My parents stood by the entrance looking stressed. ''What are you doing here? Where's Louis?'' I asked as I walked up to them. ''Detention's over so we figured we would pick you up too'' my dad said, ''okay, but where's Lou?'' I asked again. ''He's in the car he got suspended'' my dad said a little lower. But of course everyone heard. ''What? It wasn't even his fault, Zayn were..'' Liam said but my dad cut him off ''he broke school rules, the principal didn't have a choice than to suspend both him and the other boy'' good, at least Zayn got the same punishment. ''How long is he suspended for?'' Niall asked, ''two weeks'' my mum answered. ''Shit'' Liam mumbled.

We got out to my dad's car and I saw Louis sitting in the backseat. His face was messed up and I felt so bad for him. Apparently dad had picked mum up in his car and it felt so weird sitting the whole family in the same car again. Almost like the divorce never happened. ''Are you okay?'' I asked Louis, he didn't answer he just continued staring out the window. ''I'm sorry'' I whispered, he turned his head to me and shook it before staring out the window again.

We got home and sat down around the kitchen table as we had done so many times Louis and I had been in trouble. ''Can we do this later? I have a headache'' Louis said as mum gave him some ice for his bruised eye. ''You can stand ten more minutes'' mum simply said. ''Can anyone tell us what happened? From the beginning, please'' dad asked and I looked over at Louis, panicking over that he might mention what I had done last night. ''He were saying some nasty and untrue things about Emma, so I defended her'' he said and I took a breath of relief. ''So you decided to punch him?'' dad asked, ''trust me dad, you would have punched that dick too'' ''Language, Louis'' mum warned. ''How did you end up in detention then?'' dad asked me, ''I tried to stop the fight, just like the other boys'' our parents nodded and it looked like they didn't know what to say. ''I don't tolerate violence, Louis so you're grounded'' dad said, ''seriously?'' Louis said, clearly annoyed. ''It's not enough that I have a messed up face and a two week suspension from school?'' he said sniffling. I looked over at him to see he was crying. Oh here we go. ''My face is messed up and it hurts so much'' Louis cried and mum instantly stood up to hug him as I rolled my eyes. He was only doing this to get out of his punishment. ''What do you think, Tom? I think he's been through enough today'' mum said and I knew Louis was doing a victory dance on the inside. ''I guess so'' dad sighed. ''I just want to go to bed, mum'' Louis said and let out another sniffle. The waterworks always worked in favor for him, when I cried they all thought I was overreacting. Mum followed Louis up to his room to 'tuck him in'. Fucking bullshit if you ask me. ''Am I free to leave too?'' I asked and grabbed my phone, ''not so fast. I wanted to ask if you wanted to come to my place this weekend for dinner?''. Dad had moved to a house not so far from here but Louis and I had never been there. ''I guess'' I shrugged and stood up. The last time I spent time with my dad had been fine, but I'm not gonna lie I'm still mad at him. And I don't know if I'm ever going to get pass it.
