Why him? - Montgomery De La Cruz

Chapter 48

ella looks across the room as she hears someone climbing through the window and her eyes widen as she notices who it is and she looks away from them

"Hey Ellie" they whisper and ella just lets out a small scoff and grabs her bag

"Dont call me that, i wrote down what you have to do and what times to do them, he's gonna complain but just ignore him and make sure that he does it okay. I gotta go an make sure that Monty is okay and that he doesn't get into to much trouble while I'm gone" Ella sighs and walks over to the window, still not looking at the person

"Ellenor I'm really sorry" Sherri says softly and Ella shudders at the saying of her actual name, hardly anyone knew her full name, they just assumed it eas ella because that's was what she wanted to be called, only her mother called her ellenor 

"Good bye Justin" Ella says and then turns toward sherri and then climbs out of the window without saying anything and she pulls her skateboard from her bag and throws it onto the road and quickly rides to school.

Ella makes her way through the doors of liberty high and lunch was almost over so she had enough time to go and find Monty and check that he was doing okay.

"Babe hey, i thought that you couldn't come today" Monty said with a giant smile on his face as he pulls her in to his chest and places a kiss on the top of her head and she smile dup at him 

"well i missed you" Ella says and places her lips on top of his and only pulls away when she hears someone clearing their throat and she looks behind Montgomery to see Zach as well as Scott, Bryce and Chloe "oh hey guys"

"You look upset, is everything okay" Montgomery asks softly into her ear and she gives him a soft smile and nods her head but he didn't believe her for one second "If something is wrong you know you can tell me, right babe. Im all ears okay"

"Its alright Monty, i know that you have enough problems of your own, i wouldn't want to add any of mine onto your shoulder, you've got more than enough to deal with at the moment" she says and he shakes his head straight away

"If someone or something is bothering you i can deal with it straight away, none of the shit I'm going through matters if there's something happening with you. I can fix it for you babe, you just need to tell me whats wrong okay" Montgomery says and intertwines their fingers together and the group begin to walk down the hallway

"i saw sherri today, its really bugging me" Ella tells him and she notices his jaw tense up straight away and the familiar fire came to his eyes "But i don't want you to worry about it okay"

"If its bothering you than i will worry about it" Montgomery says 

"Monty, its fine alright, trust me, i can deal with it" She tells him and he hesitantly gives her a nod but there was no way he was going to listen to her, no one hurts his girl and gets away with it and he didn't care if he ended up in jail or got killed for it, he was going to protect her at all costs
