Chapter Eleven
~Riley's P.O.V.~
"Stop here." I said and Joseph nodded pulling into the parking lot. We stopped running a while ago and ended up getting a car and we are now at some diner.
"Okay so Matt can't find out anything on Calum and most likely he has already told the other dealers who we are." Joseph said quietly as we waited for our coffee to be done.
"Yea and right now we are about 5 minutes away from the abandoned store." I said and Joey nodded handing the guy the money at the register before we sat down with are tray just as the bells rang over the door.
"Sorry were late!" Rachel said as her and Emily came and sat down at the booth.
"It's fine. We got you guys some Coffee." I said taking a sip of my Ice coffee. To anyone, we would look like a normal group of friends hanging out and drinking coffee while having no worries. Obviously that's not the case.
"Did you bring me the clothes?" I asked and Emily nodded handing me a bag.
"Thanks, Em and glad to know your not going on that date Rachel." I said giving her a small smile and she smiled back. I quickly went into the bathroom and changed into a pair of dark, washed blue skinny jeans and a black tank top with the leather jacket. My hair was still the same as earlier with it down and had a bandana head band. I added the usual weapons in mostly all the usual places and walked out of the bathroom.
"I knew that would look cute on you." Rachel said smirking and I rolled my eyes.
"I look like some biker chick about to get on a motorcycle with a guy as we ride off to live happily ever after." I said sarcastically and Joseph cracked a small smile an chuckled.
"You seemed relaxed." Emily said looking a little surprised.
"Really? Because I'm not even close to relaxed. At this point, we could be going home by next week if this mission doesn't work out ."I said seriously.
"Calum has probably told everyone by now and they are most likely expecting us. I guess you must have a pretty damn good plan if we are just sitting here drinking coffee." Rachel said taking a sip of her Mocha. I laughed.
"Trust me we have a plan." Joseph said smirking and I nodded in agreement.
"Everything was going perfectly if Calum did make it to the abandoned store and told everyone." I said while moving my straw around in my cup causing the ice to swirl around.
"Well, let's hear it then." Emily said and Joseph started to go through the plan.
------
By the time we reached back home. No London home but L.A home it was about 7:30 meaning we had school. This is when the plan would officially go in action. We didn't have time to change so we are all still wearing the same clothes as yesterday, gross I know, but we didn't really have an option.We ended up having to remove some of our weapons and gadgets due to the fact that this is a school.
"Okay, so remember stay on high alert and keep your ear pieces in at all times. I should be seeing Jesse bright and early today in first period if he did find out for sure." I said and everyone nodded.
"Be careful Riley. I know you know what we are against, but I don't trust these guys. They may not play by the rules." Joseph said looking worried and I rolled my eyes.
"What rules Joey? Last time I checked there were no rules in gang business." I said and he sighed.
"You know what I mean." he said and I smirked,
"Yeah, I do and you know I am always careful. Well except for the few times I been shot in the past." I said and he scoffed.
"Exactly why I said be careful then to and you still didn't listen." He said and I laughed while winking at him.
"Joseph, tsk, tsk. You know I don't technically play fair either with these guys so were good. Now get to class." I said giving him a small push and he held up his hands in surrender.
"I'm going, I'm going. Geez, women these days." He said and I gave him a playful glare.
"Bye Ri. Let us know how everything goes." Rachel said and I rolled my eyes.
"I'm just going to class. Calm yourselves. You all act like I haven't been doing this for years." I said and gave them a small wave before heading to my locker.When I got their I noticed Lily was waiting their she smiled widely when she seen me walking down the hallway.
"You're here!" She said hugging me. I was surprised by the small gesture but nodded when she let go.
"I'm here!" I said with a fake smile. I'm gonna be honest, I forgot all about Lily.
"You and your cousins haven't been here for the past 3 days." She said and my eyes widened a little. She sounded like a stalker.
"Yea, well we had go visit my Aunt for a couple of days." I said as I shut my locker.
"Oh really? How come?" She asked and I mentally groaned. She is getting irritating now.
"She's ill." I said and she gasped.
"I hope she's okay. Tell her I hope she feels better!" She said as we walked into the classroom.
"I will." I said a little creeped out. I mean we have known each other for like a week and we didn't even talk much then. Now she wants me to tell my aunt who isn't actually ill and who she never has met that she wishes her better. It's sweet but creepy.
"April, Welcome back. Here's all your make-up work." Mr. Green said and I have him a fake smile.
"Thank You." I said and headed to my seat.I wasn't surprised when I seen Jesse sitting next to mine since that is his assigned seat and I expected him to be here but everyone else seemed to be surprised as they whispered and pointed at him.
Ring.
The bell rang signaling class was starting and Mr. Green started to quiet everyone down.
"Today we will be taking notes so pay attention. You all have a quiz Tuesday and a test of the rest of chapter 7 Friday." Mr. Green said and everyone groaned. He continued to talk about he upcoming test but I tuned him out. About half way thought the notes he called my name and my eyes widened and I looked up at him.
"What?" I asked and everyone snickered.
"I said, will you help Mr. Farone take the Calculus books down to the office and pick up the next set of books of Chapter 8-12" I nodded and stood up and grabbed the rest of the books when I noticed Jesse already left. I left the room but I didn't get to walk that far when I was pushed into a dark empty classroom. All the books were pushed out of my hands and I was being pushed into a corner of the room and was stuck there by a muscular body in front of me. Talking about being pushy. Ah see what I did there. No? Oh well.
"If you wanted to have fun there you could of just said so." I said smirking at Jesse and he glared at me still with his cold eyes.
"I don't know what game your playing at Waters or should I said Scott's." He said and my smirk got even wider. Calum did it.
"I don't know what your talking about Farone." I said shrugging innocently and his expression didn't change.
"Why are you all here." He demanded and I let out all small laugh.
"Well Jesse. I'm here because I want to get a nice education and graduate and go to college and have a nice life. Now why are you here?" I asked sarcastically and he pushed me against the corner even more as he stepped closer.
"You're not being funny Scott's and you know what I'm talking about." He said and I rolled my eyes. I ducked under his arm and started heading for the door.
"I need to return these books back to the office before I get in trouble by Mr.Green." I said and he let out a irritated sigh. I was picked up and thrown across the too making my back hit a wall. At the impact of my body hitting the wall unexpectedly it knocked the breathe out of me. I got up from the ground now annoyed.
"I was having fun Jesse. Must you ruin it. I mean your kind of hot when your angry." I said but he didn't respond but he just kept waking towards me again.
"Answer the question." He demanded standing in front of me again.
"Don't cause a seen Farone. We're still at school. Now I guess you got the little message from Calum. Am I correct?" I asked while cracking my shoulder and winced a little at the sting that went through my arm.
"You mean the message that you and your so called cousins are agents here trying to arrest me and my gang. Damn right I got the message." He said furious and I rolled my eyes.
"Don't be so dramatic." I scoffed as he punched the wall next to my head. "And don't be so violent. I mean seriously you through my against a wall. Unexpectedly too."
"Why don't you and your little group go back to where ever you came from." He said crossing his arms over his chest making his muscles flex as he glared at me. I would say that looked hot if he wasn't glaring at me.
"I thought the accent was pretty obvious where I came from." I said. If it was possible to be buried 6ft under by a simple glare I would be under by now. He went to grab me again but I quickly ducked and slid over to the left.
"Listen I thought this could go by easy an you wouldn't have to get hurt but now your just annoying the hell out of me so now you don't get to leave so easily." He said and I mentally laughed at that.
"I won't leave Farone. Get that in that little handsome head of yours. You and your gang will be going down very soon. Thank Calum for me. It was apart of our plan all along for him to tell you all about us." I lied. He didn't need to know that we just recently thought of this idea. "Now I must get to my next class goodbye Jesse." I said with a wave and left the room as the bell rang signaling Second block. One point for Riley and zero for Jesse.
