Chapter 8.
Chase's POV.
I think it was the next morning, but I still felt bad from last night. What happened last night? I felt someone tap my shoulder.
"Chase. Wake up."
I sat up and saw Caleb.
"Dude, you can't be late on the first day." Caleb said.
"I don't feel so good." I said as I dive back under the blankets.
"Wakey wakey, eggs and bakey." Ayden smiled.
"Not hungry." I whined.
"Stop acting like a baby." Ayden said as he pulled my blankets off onto the floor.
"Wait, he still doesn't feel good?" Zander asked.
"No. I think someone drugged me somehow." I whined as I grabbed the blankets off the floor and wrapped them around me again.
"That's crazy Chase. No one would drug a bionic superhuman." Caleb said.
"If you want, I can talk to the nurse and see if she has any medicine you can take." Zander suggested.
"Please?" I asked.
Zander let out a small smile.
"Sure man. Ayden, Caleb, keep a eye on him." He said as he left the room.
"I know what'll make you feel better. You ditched your family last night for us. Why don't you talk to them?" Caleb suggested as he handed me my laptop.
"No! I don't want them to get worried!" I yelled as I pushed the laptop away.
"I'm worried about you, Chase. You may be the youngest here, but that doesn't mean you have to act like a five year old." Ayden explained.
Then Zander came back.
"Here man. Take these." He said as he handed me the pill bottle.
"Thanks." I said as he handed me a cup of water.
After 15 minutes, I felt better so I got up, got in my capsule and changed. When I came out, everyone looked at me.
"What?" I asked.
"You get dressed in the tube?" Zander asked.
"It's called a capsule, and yes, when I'm in a hurry. Let's go." I said as I grabbed my stuff and put the pill bottle in there, just in case.
-Time skip-
This place is awesome! The classes are actually at my level for once! I saw Crystal and she came over to me.
"Hey are you feeling better? Zander said you hit your head and you looked pretty out of it last night." Crystal explained.
"Yeah I'm feeling better. I'm so sorry about last night." I admitted.
"Hey it's ok. You didn't mean to hit your head. Do you maybe want to go on a date?" Crystal asked.
I smiled widely and probably would've jumped for joy if we weren't in a huge hall.
"That would be great." I said.
"Great! How about this weekend?" She asked.
"That works." I smiled.
"Great! See you then!" She gushed as she kissed my cheek and left.
If only I had noticed Zander fuming from afar.
Zander's POV.
This wasn't taking long enough! I need Chase gone! I need to protect my baby sister! I decided to slip some drugs into his food at lunch. That'll mess him up. More drugs means more pills which means overdose. Big overdose.
I noticed the time, so I went to my final class before lunch.
-Time skip-
At lunch, I was sitting at a table with Crystal, Ayden and Caleb. I saw Chase walk in, so I waved him over and he sat down.
"There's my Chasey!" Crystal said as she smiled.
'Distraction...I know!'
"Guys! Someone over there just passed out!" I yelled.
Chase, Caleb, Ayden and Crystal ran over while I slipped the drugs into his food. They came back a few minutes later.
"There wasn't anyone over there." Chase said, and everyone nodded and agreement.
"I must've imagined it." I admitted as I put some food in my mouth.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Chase eating. Perfect.
Chase's POV.
I finished my lunch real quick and Caleb and I went to our next class.
"Chasey, I'm gonna miss you the entire time." Crystal said.
"I know, but I'll see you later. Kay?" I asked.
"Ok Chasey Wasey." She smiled as she kissed my cheek before leaving.
I could definitely get used to that. Caleb and I walked into our class. After ten minutes, I started feeling really bad again. I ended up leaving the class real quick. I went into the bathroom and pulled out the pill bottle.
"How many of these am I supposed to take?" I asked out loud as I looked for directions.
Zander gave me four earlier and I felt way better, but I'm still making sure there isn't any rules or anything. I sighed after not finding any, grabbed four pills and swallowed them with the water from the sink.
'What is happening to me?' I asked myself before putting my pills back in my backpack and going back to class.
Well, I was planning on posting this tomorrow, but I was convinced otherwise by thatoneguy3333.
Over and out.
