Chapter Five : To Carry On
3rd POV,
SOMERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL
THE NEXT MORNING, A SHRINE HAS BEEN MADE AT MY LOCKER, with a picture of me attached to it.
The Saunders Gang are looking at it, gloomily, as they put flowers on the table.
Some of the high schoolers gently puts flowers on the table as well.
And the Saunders Gang exchange gloomily looks at each other as they proceed to carry on with my scheme.
Aiden kisses two fingertips and puts them on my picture frame.
"Angie's dead?" Jared said.
Aiden looks at Jared. "Yeah. She is, but why do you give a damn?"
"I do, but why you do give a damn? You and Rowan were arguing over her. But you don't have to anymore because she's dead. But at least, you have Gilmore to keep you company." Jared said to Aiden, snarky.
Annoyed, Aiden grabs Jared by his leather jacket and pins him against the locker from mine.
"Aiden?" Zach said.
Jared sly smirks, to himself. "Was it something I said? I'm sorry, didn't mean to hit a nerve."
Rowan walks up beside Aiden. "It's not worth it, Aiden. Angie wouldn't want this for you."
Jared and Aiden exchange annoyed looks at each other. And Aiden gently lets Jared go.
"You really did love Angie." Jared said, adjusting his leather jacket. "Too sad that you didn't reciprocate your romantic feelings for her when you had your chance."
"Rot in a dumpster, Jared." Aiden said to him, annoyed.
"Back off, Jared." A familiar voice said, which makes Aiden smiles a little.
My older best friend, Special Agent Violet Benton is there, wearing her Special Agent jacket and lanyard badge.
Jared walks away from Aiden. And Miss. Violet Benton slowly walks up to the Saunders Gang.
"You guys must be Angie's best friends. I'm Violet Benton." Violet Benton said, introducing herself to the Saunders Gang with a small smile.

In a empty classroom with the door closed, Miss. Violet Benton is with the Saunders Gang.
"Gosh, Somerville High. It's been five years since I've been here." Violet Benton said, and looks at the Saunders Gang, folding her arms, sitting atop of the desk. "Angie told me everything about her scheme to fake her death."
"How do you know?" Yvonne asked Miss. Violet, sitting at a desk.
"Because I did it. I faked my death to protect my best friends and loved ones. I was successful. And I assume that Angie has an nemesis." Miss. Violet said.
"Yeah. Amy Tooney. She's a psychopath." Rowan said.
"A psychopath." Miss. Violet said.
"Violetquinn." Miss. Cherry said, having walked inside the classroom, and closes the door behind her.
Miss. Violet looks at Miss. Cherry and smiles. "Hey, Cherrypoo."
"You two knows each other?" Robyn asked, a bit surprised.
"Yes, we do. Violet and I were both high schoolers here at Somerville High." Miss. Cherry said, slowly walks up beside Miss. Violet. "And she's still the Knight In Purple Armor."
"Oh, so, you're the Violet Benton. Wow. It's awesome to meet you." Yvonne said with a smile. "Miss. Cherry told us about you."
Miss. Violet gives Miss. Cherry a playfully smile. "Aww, you do love me, Cherrypoo."
Miss. Cherry gives Miss. Violet her typical small smile. "Anyhoo, back to the subject of Angiekins."
"Angie told me that an autopsy was done by my mom, Tasha Benton. Angie was at a party, drinking, lost her footing and fell down the stairs, and hit her head, which killed her instantly. And she also injected herself with hydrochlorothiazide." Miss. Violet said. "So, how long does Angie attend to keep up her scheme?"
"She's just doing this to keep Amy Tooney to back off and The Reptiles gang group." Ziandra said.
"Speaking of Angie, where is she?" Miss. Cherry asked.
"At home." Miss. Violet Benton said, and looks at the Saunders Gang. "In the meantime, you guys keep up Angie's scheme ploy. The teachers and high schoolers here at Somerville High thinks that Angie's dead, but you guys don't. So, don't talk about Angie while you guys are here at school. I will be with Angie, okay?"
"Yes, ma'am." The Saunders Gang said in unison.
"And I will be asking you guys some questions regarding the party at Miss. Stanton's house." Miss. Violet Benton said.
"Okay." Aiden said.
"Okay, I'll see you guys around." Miss. Violet Benton said, glancing at Miss. Cherry. "Cherry."
"Violet." Miss. Cherry said.

SAUNDERS HOME
THAT NIGHT, in the living room, Miss. Violet and I are sitting on the three seat sofa.
"So, Amy Tooney thinks that you're dead. And your best friends won't be talking about it at school, they're gonna keep up your scheme ploy. And as part of your scheme, I'm gonna be asking the guys some questions about the party as well." Miss. Violet said.
"Okay." I said to Miss. Violet, and smiles a little. "But other than that, it's good to see you."
Miss. Violet smiles a little. "It's good to see you too, Angie."
Miss. Violet and I exchange smiles at each other.

Now, in my nightly bedroom, with my nightstand lamplight turned on, I'm just laying in bed, gently hugging my bedcover.
My phone buzzes on the nightstand. I picks up and looks at it. One voicemail from Amy Tooney
I press the 'Play' button on the voicemail.
"I figured it out, Angie. Faking your death so, you can end our antagonistic quarrel, I'll say it's pretty damn smart of you. I don't know how you did it, but I will figure it out, it's be just me and you." Amy said, and the voicemail ends.
