Chapter twenty one: "what are yous doing in the girls toilets?!"

"-and she could be doing it to trick you! How was you so stupid enough to go by your self!" Lily droned on. I just raised an eyebrow, rolling my eyes slightly.

"Who was stupid enough to go where?" Lucas inquired.

"No where."

"Her ex's."

"Her...ex's"

I physically face palmed at our feeble attempts to hide we was talking about 'stormy tgunder'. I didnt reveal who the other supers are who i work with but she promised to act like she still hated us heros and would be nice to me in school. Its kind of a win win.

"Which ex?" Xander and Lucas' eyes seem to darken significantly.

"It best not be Jace." Apollo growled.

"I heard I name!" Jace sang coming to our lunch table.

"What are you doing here?" I growled.

"I attend school here now." He smirked our way. "It seems like my 'stunt' was redeemable because as soon as my dad gave a donation to the school. I was allowed to attend again." He laughed in our faces.

"What stunt?" Xander inquired.

"Well it wasn't really me. Was it Astra?" Jace blue glacier eyes seemed to darken.

"Nope." I smirked. "It was mine, he got the blame." I pronounced proudly.

"What did you do?" Lucas smiled.

"What didn't she do is the question you really need to ask." Sara laughed taking a seat. "Hiyah Astra." She smiled and waved.

"Hiyah Sara." I smiled warmly back. "And to answer your question, I did many things." I laughed.

"Some was epic too." Sara laughed. "No one belived it was Astra though."

"Why? How did you get away with it?" Xander smirked.

"Because she is quite the liar. Arnt you Astra?" Jace's face twitched into a evil smirk. "Did she ever tell you about the time she-" i cut him off.

"Shut up Jace!" I growled.

"Oh my gee! Can you remember that time she put hair dye in all the boys shampoo because she didnt know which one was Jaces." Sara laughed directing her question to Jannet and Lily.

"Oh yeah that was classic." Jannet laughed, while Lily smiled.

"Oh so thats who gave me pink hair." Apollo smiled.

"And me blue!" Tyler furrowed his eyebrows. "How did you get into our lockers though? They was locked." He stated looking confuddled.

"I picked the lock's obviously." I laughed.

"What else can you do?" Apollo inquired.

"Alot of things." Xander smirked.

"Uh-huh. Anyways the last prank was the best. Can you remember?" I shot at Jace. Jace seemed to grimace.

"Who cant?" His smirk seemed to fall and resemble a thin lined frown.

"What happened?"

I sighed. "I nicked all of his clothes, from the locker rooms. I then hid them in the Principles office. He ran around nacked." I laughed. "When he got there, he made the mistake of putting on his shirt first, instead of his pants. The principal at the time, caught him in her office....naked." A laughed bubbled out my mouth.

"So that was why you left school. You didnt have a choice.... you got expelled." Sara smirked as if she had figured it out.

"Why are you even here? I thought you both fell out...over me?" It came out more of a question, then a statement.  "Oh come on. We both know what happened and you didnt fall out. Seriously, damn i guess it didnt work." His smirk seemed to fall and he came to a realisation.

"What didnt work?" Lily spoke up.

"After Astra did...you know. I thought having it with her bestfriend would surely break apart your friendship group." He laughed. Sara, Lily and I must have had the same exspression.

"What did you do?" Lucas asked smiling encouragingly. When i made no move to answer, he asked Lily and Sara. "What did she do?" He then questioned Jannet.

"I dont know. I wasn't friends with them at the time." She gave him a blank face.

"Your asking the wrong question. It should be, who did you do?" Jace laughed when I dropped my head, staring at the floor. "It was rather discusting to be honest. My bestfriend. Her boyfriends bestfriend. Can you believe it? She fućked her boyfriends bestfriend." He gave me a sinister smile.
"So i decided to have some 'fun' of my own." He laughed grinning at sara. Sara had bowed her head aswell.

"Who did she do?" Lucas asked gingerly.

"You dont really want the answer do you?" Jace shot back.

"Not really." Lucas looked anywhere but at me.

"Seriously, you fücked his bestfriend but wouldnt fück me? Wow." Xanders voice was dangerously low.

"Thats not the best bit. It was one of your bestfriends aswell." Jace pointed to Xander. Lucas was still not looking at me. "Actually...why dont you just tell him Apollo." Jace smirk was evil and had the sence that he knew alot more then what you would think.

"Seriously. You did it with her! With my ex!" Xanders voice was horce. "How?  And why?" He seemed to slump in his seat.

"We was both drunk at a party. Specifically Jace's party and she had had to many and so had I." His cheeks seemed to be highlighted with a light link. "I stopped her from getting undressed from everyone. I stopped her from doing something stupid." He stared at me.

"What was the stupid thing?"  Jaces eyes danced with curiosity.

"She nearly fell from your balcony! You should have been there fot her but you wasnt. She also saw you in the pool kissing that Felisha slüt!" Apollo exsploded.

"She needed you and you wasnt there! She needed you to cradle her in your arms and tell her it was okaii. That she was okaii. You didnt even ask her how she was. She was a mess. She often called me up crying. She went through a hard time and you didnt notice. If you did then you didnt show it."  Apollo was breathing heavy.

"So you slept with her?" Jace smirked harder.

"Yes I slept with her. I dont give a fück if you know. I treated her better then you did when you went out! She was a mess when she was with you and after she was an even bigger mess!" He growled. "Did you ever notice her scars?" His voice was barly above a whisper.

"What scars?" Jaces face was blank but his eyes glistened with curiosity and his voice was soft and quiet.

"Of course you didnt." He said rather to himself.

"How did you not know? Even when i was on the outs, i still knew! You are an disgrace to the human race. I cant see what she saw in you. " Sara screamed.

"You know what." Jace winked at her.

"Oh fück off."

"I cant believe it. I generally cant believe it." Xander's mind read. His intense stare changed to a look of discust.

I couldnt take it. My legs seemed to move on their own. I got to the corridor when I heard someone call my name. I didnt want to see anyone so i turned invisible and ran. Brick by brick, my walls came tumbling down. As I ran from my friends, the tears in my eyes turned the rainy day into a whirlwind of grays and yellows.

I slammed into the bathroom door. I didn't care who saw. I just broke down. The sobs punched through, ripping through my muscles, bones, and guts. I pressed my forehead against the grimy stall door and began to let my heart yank in and out of my chest. It pulled back in like a yo yo. Over and over. In and out. I was hollow. My life had crumbled in my fingertips. Then, suddenly, my friends were there, patting and rubbing my. They reached into my hollowness and hugged me tight.

"Astra, you made an mistake. We have all made mistakes. Remember Sara slept with your ex. Jannet gave away her secret. I gave away my secret. We have all made mistakes." Lily tried to comfort me.

"Yes but iv made the most mistakes." I sobbed. "I slept with apollo, fallen for Xander...again. Iv fallen for Hawk and IM, I flirt with them both and I see IM all the time. Hes practically my bestfriend and lets bot forget I nearly told someone about your secret." I sobbed harder.

"Shush honey, its okaii. Everything will be okaii. You dont need to worry about a thing. Maybe a friend should talk to Jace." She winked at me. 'Maybe Stormy thunder?' She added in her head.

"Maybe." I smiled.

"Im sure the boys will forgive you." Jannet smiled. "Although Xander will be walking in her in about two minutes and lucas three."

"How do you know that?"  Sara inquired.

"Can i trust her?" Jannet looks skeptic.

"Yes But Sara you must tell her your secret." I stated looking at sara. She sighed and said fine.

"Im mystic Prowless and i can see the future ." Jannet smiled.

"Oh shit. Im Stormy Thunder. Im sorry for hitting you." Sara cupped her mouth.

"Its fine." She laughed.

Just then Xander ran into the girls bathroom, then into my stall.

"Oh-erm-huh." He made a weird noise. "Your-shes crying." He looked guilty. "I came to apoligise. Im sorry. I shouldnt of thought different of you." He scratched his neck. "Im sorry. My mum would be so angry if she found out i made a beautiful girl cry." He then sighed.

"I think she would be more if it was you and not me. She kinds of expects it of me." Lucas announced looking down.

"You never told me how you know each other you know." I stated through blurry eyes.

"We're-" what ever he was going to say got cut short by a high pitch squeal.

"What are you doing in the girls toilets?!" Mrs Greanhall shouted. "Get out!"
