Andrea's POV

I was busy trying to control my laughter. But, seriously, hippo's milk. The more interesting question remains 'How does she know?'.

Just then we heard a familiar voice, "Well, that was fun." And Caleb was standing there, in all his glory.

Has he been standing there all this while?

Till now, we know too much about the infamous Caleb McCarney, all credit goes to the colorful description by our dearest, Susan. She curses the day she opted for calculus. Well, told ya.

Reva is happy about it though, she says, "When a pain in ass has a pain in his ass, it's awesome to see him squirm."

I don't completely disagree either. Personally, I think that is kinda cute and it kinda pisses her, so I stick with it.

I could see the smitten face by her 'wolfe' morph to annoyance and couldn't help, but smirk. Just then, two more people came in and started making their way inside, engrossed in their own world, not bothering about their surroundings.

It came as a bit of a shock when I recognized Skyler and Ian. What the hell are they doing here?

Brain: Well, it's a public place. Duh.

Me: Don't you speak too much these days, just get lost already.

Seeing the past events, with itching powder, Skyler isn't really the person Reva wants to face . Almost a week has passed and he hasn't done anything for revenge, and him backing down is like an impossible task, we all back each other on that. Seeing all these points, Reva is definitely keeping her guards up .

The person beside him, isn't any great either. I never really let my mind linger much on Ian Wilson before, as the name pops out in almost every gossip, giggle and blush of the girls in school. But now, it seems impossible. He just shares one class with me and I'm so thankful for that. Once a day, 40 minutes with him, is more than enough. I keep thinking if things start to escalate like this, I might just fail in chemistry.

I don't get what is his problem. Has he taken some degree to annoy the shit out of someone?

If yes, that university would be proud of their alumni with hundred percent excellence.

He, practically, has my chair as the greatest luxury of this world. Whatever you do, his hands remains crossed on the back of my chair and chin resting on that, half the time, if not he is continuously kicking the leg of my chair, 'subconsciously', either playing with my hair or asking for stationary, only to start banging them. I even tried changing my seat , but he magically appears behind me, continuing his fetish with my chair. After several life threats and pencil stealing, the situation remains same. He just derives amusement out of all this, which is pretty evident by his smirk at the end of each period.

These three are no less than devils in our lives and right now, seeing them together definitely came as a big shock. Both of them proceed towards Caleb and did a bro-hug as if they have been best friends ever since their first day on this planet. That definitely made our smirks drop. How the hell did they suddenly know each other? Last I checked, they were all living in their own worlds.

Caleb kept his eyes on Sue, and noticing that, both of them looked our way and finally acknowledged our presence with their own smirks. Then, Caleb walked up to Sue and said, "You didn't tell me you work here?"

Sue paused a moment, maintaining the scowl her face and said, "Oh...I didn't...maybe because it's none of your business."

"Burn!", "Woah!" the two hollered from the table. Guess all friends worldwide have a persistence quality of relish in your special moment of shame.

It might be a little shock to all, but they haven't seen all of Sue yet, and trust me when I say, this is nothing.

Caleb, who can't seem to change his smirkful expression, gave a slight tilted nod and said, "Hmm...I'll let you have it this time, my ass. By the way, you look stunning with your angry red face matched with this hot pink outfit," And went back to his seat, not before shooting her a wink.

Then Revs suddenly came up to me and whispered, "Do you have any spare safety pins? These shorts are getting lose, they might just be lying on the floor anytime now."

I smiled a bit and nodded, went to my bag, gave her the pin. She quickly went to the washroom and came back. Picking up a pen and pad to write the order on, she moved towards the boys table. Suddenly, I feel happy of my decision to be the Barista today, instead of waitressing. Poor Reva.

Then I noticed, the only customer except them, paying and leaving. So that makes the devils, us and Claire to be the only ones present in here, and Seb actually have some work in the back room, surprisingly .

Reva got to table to finally get their orders . Although she had the confident stride and uninterested face . I could tell from inside, she was probably shitting . I know her acting skills all to well from past experiences.

I didn't wanted to give the boys as much attention,to blow up some more air in the hot air balloons of their ego's. Although I'll be glad if it explodes, but somehow, I don't quite see that happening . So, I maintained some focus on my phone, with occasional glances towards them. Since there were no orders to prepare , I shifted slightly towards them . Hey, don't judge. This is better than 'FRIENDS' . Who would want to miss the drama? Sue, seems to have similar ideas , but the cash counter being at the far end , she couldn't get a nice view, so she settled with her phone.

They started their life goals- mission annoy Reva and of course Skyler took the lead for his small troop. But I found myself suddenly more interested in my phone as I found Ian flashing me the all very familiar smirk, whenever our eyes met and that was every time I looked up.

After two minutes when i finally looked up, i got the shock of my life. Reva was bend down and Skyler just sp...span....spanked her ass. What the fucking hell ??!!

I can't believe my eyes, did he.......did he actually do that?? It's like everyone was stuck in that exact position and no one even dared to move a hair.

Greater shock came to me when I saw Reva's flushed red phase. In all these years of our friendship I have never seen her once like this, not even close. Was she mimicking Sue? God, is she actually blushing ? Damn, this is once in a lifetime moment. Even comet shower couldn't match up to this.

How her whole face is red and eyes wide. Okay, sweet brain where are you? Kinda need some help processing this.

Then something clicked. Eureka.

This is Reva we are talking about, she never blushes .... Correction....She can't blush , she is probably incapable of it. Immune to such things. What else can make her face so red and hand resting on stomach as if clutching onto something.

WAIT....Holding onto something. Damn those shorts......" They are so loose, they could be on the ground any moment"......shit. It's anger. Her face is red with sheer anger.

Oh Skyler your so dead.

Reva's POV

I just walked towards them, like it's my everyday job to Handel assholes. Well, do attend my school....so that kinda is true.

Honestly speaking, I'm kinda a little, titsy-bitsy nervous and on top of that, these shorts . The elastic at the back probably broke. I'm gonna throw them as soon as I reach home.

I finally reached them and asked, " What would you like to have today?" paying more attention to the notepad. What! I know I can be polite sometimes. I have it in me. Don't be so shocked.

"I don't know, something without involving my briefs and itch powder. How does that sound?" Guess who?

Rest two snickered while glancing towards the menu, while one bastard's eyes were still stuck on me while mine, on the ever so beautiful notepad . But not to forget our two second glare competition before that.

No one spoke , okay it's kind of awkward now with two goon's occasional glances and the ape-man's stare , as if I'm just gonna bend down on my knees and ask for forgiveness for some of my finest idea's ever. Ha, tough luck. But, that's completely okay with me , don't speak. I would just stand here, looking at this intriguing , yellow colour , very attractive indeed , paper in my hand . I start playing with my pen and just then Caleb spoke," Why is hippo's milk not on the menu? " ,to which all three laughed . Caleb probably filled them about what happened , while I took my own sweet time to come and ask for their orders.

Just then my pen fell from my hands , I was irritated , no one teases my friends except me. I bend down to pick up my pen . From the perefree Skyler and Caleb hi-fyied , but suddenly Caleb retrieved his hands and the next thing I feel is Skyler's hand on my ass, in full swing .

What the bloody fuck??

It took me less than a second to bolt straight up, in attention position , with my hands holding my damn shorts which could go down anytime now.

I am seething with anger at these assholes . My face is probably all red right now. I could fucking murder him right now. Who does this dickbead think he is ? And above all ,I can't even move without my shorts kissing the ground . Oh, this shit face is gonna pay !!

Just then Ri makes eye contact with me and is by my side in an instant . Sometimes I'm thankful that I hang out with atleast one person who has some brain , cause our dear Sue is still standing at the counter like a statue and eyes wide.

Ri looks at my face and then down at my hands clutching the shorts . Her eyes show that she has figured out . She takes a moment to stand and admire my state again. Well isn't she taking her own sweet time . And guess how she used her bloody fucking time . The master plan she was assessing was to call sue over .

By now sue came back to her senses , practically sprinted and stood right next to Caleb . You could tell from her face , that she was still a bit disoriented. She blankly stared at both Ri and me for a moment . I tried my best not to bring anything from my mouth , cause this really isn't a good situation for any of us to hear but , oh dear, you just wait for it.

She kept her eyes on Ri as if asking ' what happened?' Ri answered ," South downfall . Code D." I just pray to almighty that Sue remembers this code language from middle school ( which by the way ,she came up with) and doesn't have another episode of short term memory loss.

Apparently she does. Hail the God.

When these three dumbass finally notice Sue's presence, all table went quite and all eyes went on her . I could see her wheels turning and her eyes roomed across the room , finally landing on Caleb. All nervousness and uncertainty vanished from her eyes when the smirk grew on her face , eyes still on Caleb.

I could see the poor soul gulping . Sue takes a deep breath and bats her eyes towards Caleb . Slowly , very slowly , she started bending towards him . I would be a hypocrite if would say, the rest all eyes were like sausers because mine would probably be bigger than them.

She kept going down and Caleb's jaw was touching the floor now meanwhile other two shared a look of disbelief . Skyler even started blinking his eyes vehemently.

She still kept bending towards them until they were sharing the same air . Ri was the first to snap out of it , as she started fiddling with my safety pin that was stuck . She was still pulling on it at my back , when Sue kept her hands on Caleb's collar and asked ," You need hippo's milk ,I heard? " In a voice that I could believe she would use on someone . Her day and night lessons of those romance books paid off now.

Ri stopped her fiddling and stared at them . I finally nudged at her to continue .

When Caleb was able to comprehend what she said ," No, no. I....I didn't." While moving his head sideways , still keeping his eyes locked on Sue's.

Ri finally took out the stuck pin and put it back where my shorts were back intact.

While sue , finally revealed a full fledged smirk and said," Good, I was wondering anyway why would a donkey need hippo's milk, right? "

Caleb absentmindedly nooded and both Ri and me , not able to hold it anymore , burst out laughing.

Skyler and Ian too finally snapped out of it . Sue stood back upright, her eyes darting towards Ri , who gave a short nod of confirmation and sue finally walked back to her counter , without so much a glance at Caleb.

Caleb still looked a bit flustered , Skyler and Ian still trying not to laugh . Ri and me looking proud as hell of our little cry baby . You go girl . And then caught sight of Several and Claire huddled at the corner behind their camera probably recording it all and faces similar to Skyler.

At the end of the day , watching the video for the third time now, Claire asked," Btw, what does code D mean?"

" D means distract"
She laughed at Sue's reply and said," you surely did that pretty well."
