Sentence(s) of the chapter- "You want ice-cream, I can tell." He smirked.

"I say not guilty, your both free to go. Ill look over this may call you into my office Mrs. Lycaster. Have a good evening. Try not to harm Mr. James face, please," Mrs. Keels said, shaking my hand before letting us walk out. I rubbed my sweaty palms together. We walked out and I turned to a very confused Mathew.
"I know her so well, that we treat every problem as a court would. Hence why I had the folder. God that was stressful," I said. He looked surprised.
"Really? You looked like a white sheet walking in, but then turned into a freaking lawyer. I couldn't tell." He said. I held out my hand, and he high fived it.
"What!? You're just gonna let her go!?" I heard Dalian's voice boom from Mrs. Keels office.
"Dalian James, sit down! I didn't give you permission to leave!" Mrs. Keels said loudly as Dalian stormed out. He made eye contact and came right over to me, ready to strike. I covered my face with my hands, waiting for the pain that never came. I separated my fingers a little, then took them down. A large hand engulfed Dalian's, making him look to his hand, then to Mathew. His eyes went wide as Mathew spoke in a deep voice.
"Don't. You. Dare. Touch. Her." He said slowly, making sure that Dalian got the message. Dalian ripped his hand from Mathews, and gave him a look. A look that shifted to me. A look that made me start too tremble.
"You cant always hide behind him, Lilly. Just know that," Dalian said, walking back into the office. I was shaking, thinking over and over about what could've happened if Mathew hadent been there, or if he hadn't caught Dalian's hand. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I relaxed a little, but was still slightly shaking.
"Hey, look at me. It's gonna be okay." He said, looking into my eyes. I nodded. Then I did something that I don't think I ever thought I would do. I hugged him. I guess he was surprised at first, because it took him a few minuets to hug back.
"T-thanks. I don't know what would've happened if you hadn't caught his hand. Well, I know what would've happened physically, but I don't know if I'd be okay mentally. I don't even know if im mentally stable now." I said, braking away from the hug and looking at his small smile.
"I'd never let that happen. Come on, lets leave." He said, grabbing my hand and pulling me out of the office.
"The office, or school?" I questioned. He just smirked.
"The school. I'm sure your teachers wont notice and I'm pretty sure Mrs. Keels wont mind, seeing as she was watching the whole thing," He said. I shrugged and agreed. We separated to grab our stuff, then we were out. WE went out to the parking lot and got into his car. I took out my phone and turned it out, bracing myself for the comments, that did come. I quickly dismissed them as Mathew pulled out of the lot. I'll eventually read them later. Yes, I do read them all.
"Who're you calling?" Mathew asked, seeing me put in a phone number.
"The auto-shop. I think my car might need new tires," I said sarcastically.
"Hello, I'm Miranda, how can I help you," The woman on the other end of the phone said.
"Hi Miranda, My car needs four new tires, also transportation to get to the shop." I said.
"Alright, wheres you're car and we'll pick it up for you?" She asked nicely. I told her the school address and what the car looked like. She said they'll pick it up this evening. I thanked her and put my phone on my lap.
"Where are we going?" I asked, noticing that this isn't the usual way to my house, where I assumed we were going.
"You want ice-cream, I can tell." He smirked. I smiled, knowing he was right. He pulled into a small ice-cream shop and we got out. We went in and ordered. I got mint chocolate, my favorite, while Mat just got a vanilla. we sat at a booth and catted with each other.
I learned that his favorite color was blue, and that he liked math. We had a lot in common, but somethings we didn't have in common.
"What!? You don't like chocolate?! You're joking, right?" I asked. He shook his head and smiled.
I just sighed. "How can you not like chocolate," I stated. He just shrugged. "Not even hot cocoa?" I asked, looking from the table to him with my eyes, but not moving my head. He shook his head. I banged my head on the table, leaving it there. "That hurt," I retorted. He just chuckled.

      "Got to love home. You gonna stay?" I asked, walking into my house, he laughed.
     "Not right now, I told Aaron and Carter that I'd meet up with them later to hang out, but I'll be back later okay?" He said.
      "Yup! Have fun doing whatever guys do. 'Hang out'," I said, making air quotes.
      "Okay, bye," he said, walking out and closing the door. I went over and locked it, so that no one can get in. This was gonna be a long day. I took out my phone and opened my messages, ready for the flood.
