Drake starts trembling from Adrian's stare. Adrian was just done with the situation.
 “if you are smart drake you will leave me alone from now on” commanded Adrian. 
Drake just ran and didnt look back cause he felt if he did. Death would follow. Adrian turns to the petite girl that followed him. 
“I am sorry you got caught up in my problems; but its best you stay away from me. People around me usually get hurt.” he said 
Rachel just looked at him and she could see the sadness in his eyes after what he said. That look was of pure loneliness. Adrian turned to walk away but felt a tug at his sleeve. He has always kept everyone at arms length. Cause it was the best way to keep everyone safe. But something about this girl makes him want to let her in. but he knows that is not possible. He pulls his sleeve out of her grip and keeps walking. 
Rachel removes the bracelet the principal gave her and tried to focus only on adrian but all she got was emptiness. She put the bracelet back on and felt something fly by her in adrian's direction. It was the girl from her class the one who slapped adrian. She had a staff in her hand. He just side stepped her and stopped. 
“can we not do this belle. Im leaving” he said
The girl just glared at him. She tapped the staff on the ground and a barrier came up around them. Rachel couldnt hear anything outside the barrier but she could see they were talking. It looked like belle was yelling at him and he just stood there taking the berating. 
She wondered what type of relationship those two had. Was she is girlfriend. That thought made her sad cause from the moment she met him. She liked him. 
Rachel didnt notice that selina and lucian came up beside her and was watching adrian getting chewed out. 
“ah the love between siblings.”said Lucian
Rachel looked up at lucian “they are related” 
lucian just chuckled and placed his hand on rachels shoulder. “belle is adrian's twin sister.” 
Right as lucian said that belle slapped adrian again. Adrian didnt flinch when she hit him earlier in class but this time it took him down to a knee. Belle didnt see the whole fight so she didnt know that drake cracked adrians jaw. 
Even though belle was mad she loved her brother but knew sometimes she had to get physical with him. The barrier dropped and the three observers walked over to adrian and belle. 
Adrian was still down on one knee holding his jaw that is probably broken now. Rachel bent down and moved his hand away and belle saw the bruising. She knew her slaps barely affect adrian so he had to be hurt before hand. 
Her hand started to glow and she placed it on adrians cheek. Belle was a wielder of angelic divinity. But it strains her body so she rarely uses it. 
It took a lot out of belle to heal adrians broken jaw to the point she about passed out. Selina squatted down in front of belle and let her fall onto her. Selina stood up with belle on her back. 
“Im going to take her to the nurses office so she can rest. I will catch up with you guys later.” selina disappeared down the hall.
Adrian stood up and watched Selina and his sister disappear. Since the fight was over all the other students started to disperse and head to their next classes. 
But Rachel stood there looking at adrian. He noticed she was but didnt look back at her. He just turned and walked away. Rachel attempted to run after him but was stopped by lucian grabbing her arm. 
“its best you let him go. He rarely lets anyone in.” he said
Hearing that made rachel sad. Why did she care so much about a person she only just met. 
“then why are you and selina able to go so close to him” asked rachel hiding the tears with her hair. 
Lucian let go of rachel's arm and gave her a hug. That just made rachel cry even more into him. Lucian just stood there brushing her hair while she cried. To rachel it felt like she has been crying for hours into lucian's shirt but it has been about 10 minutes. Her crying subsided and she was just sniffling now. Lucian let go of her and took a step back 
“Adrian and I have been very close since we met. Selina has been the second girl if you dont count belle that adrian has let get close” said lucian 
Rachel looks up at lucian with eyes bloodshot from all the crying. “what do you mean the second, who was the first.” 
Lucian realized he just messed up and said too much. But that look from rachel, he knew she wasnt going to let it go. 
Without lucian noticing she removed the bracelet and heard the name in lucian's mind Ava. She wiped away her tears and thanked lucian for letting her cry. Lucian was confused to why she didnt badger him to get the girls name. His watch went off and he looked at it. 
“i have to go, someone needs me.” lucian left in a hurry leaving rachel all alone in the hallway. 
She pulled out her class schedule to see where she was supposed to be and noticed it was her lunch period. She wandered the halls til she saw a teacher and asked where the lunch room was. Instead of giving directions the teacher took her to it. Since it was where the teacher was going.
The lunch room was huge with 2 floors. The first floor had where you bought your food and some tables to eat at. The second was a roof top terrace so you could eat outside. Rachel got in line to get some food. There was an amazing selection to choose from but rachel settled with a egg sandwich and a tea. 
She loved being outside so she went to the second floor but was stopped at the top by some guys who decided to hit on her. 
“why not a pretty little thing like you have lunch with us” said the first guy. 
Rachel just looked at him and rolled her eyes. “im sorry boys you are just not my type.” 
this made the guys mad and they slapped the food and drink out of her hands. “my bad my hand slipped” 
the guys just laughed at her. Tears came to rachel's eyes and the boys saw it. 
“oh look at the big baby. Are you going to cry” said the second guy
Rachel just didnt understand why this is happening to her. Rachel didnt see the guy from across the terrace looking at her. Rachel bent down to pick up her ruined lunch when she was stopped by the two woman from the fight earlier. The woman in white wiped away her tears while the other picked up the sandwich and tea than proceeded to cover the rude guys in it. 
“you bitch” said one of the guys as he swung at her but her fist connected first and sent him flying. 
“the rest of you want some” said the woman to the other guys. They shook their heads and picked up their friend and left.
