Chapter 4 ~ Unexpected Events
I was right about my suspicions because Brock didn't show up at our lunch table. I also noticed that Brian was looking around uneasily. Probably for the same reason. We made eye contact and simultaneously stood up. We looked at each other again and he took on the lead.
"Where's Brock?"
Evan seemed to do a double take and looked around. He also stood up and announced.
"This is now an official search party!"
We all chuckled at the over exaggerated hero voice.
"In all seriousness though, I thought he had a lunch detention in maths. He should have been back by now, and Kelly isn't here either."
When did she leave? We all stood up and started walking towards the maths office, and I was starting to feel the cold sweat down my neck with every step closer we took. Finally, we reached the door, but what sounded like a moan stopped us in our tracks. Evan was about to knock on the door when we all somehow just decided to eavesdrop, and it was great timing since it was lunch and no one was walking the halls.
"How about a little deal, mmm?"
"Go away, I have no right, and neither do you. You are dismissed."
"Don't deny it Tyler."
"Excuse yourself."
Apparently Wildcat was talking to someone, but we couldn't see because the person was facing the other way. The only view point was the tiny square window on the door.
"Go before I call into Miss.Hills' office."
"You wouldn't..."
"If you're not leaving, then I am."
All of us quickly ducked away from the window. We saw the doorknob rattle. We were all out of ideas because nothing we did seemed casual enough so we could blend in. But suddenly the rattling stopped, and what sounded like a wet sponge hitting the ground multiple times became the noise behind the door. Marcel slowly peaked over and clamped his hands over his mouth. He scrambled to get his phone out. He put it on video setting and recorded something we couldn't see. After he was done, he muttered a quiet 'Oh Shit' and pushed us to the side just as the door opened.
"What are you guys doing here?"
We all took the time to make ourselves non-suspicious before Lui spoke up.
"We were just about to knock on the door because we came to ask if you have seen Moo. Because he was supposed to be in your detention before lunch and he's not with us."
Wildcat rubbed the back of his neck. Honestly, this guys' reactions and emotions are fucking adorable and not to mention he's handsome. There's nothing that can make him look bad. My legs melted, I am thankful for the wall being there.
"Hey, I can help you look for him because I do smell something fishy."
My heart just stopped. Now we're going to be hanging out with him. Lui, I will murder you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kelly seemed a little off while we went around asking people. She stayed silent and behind the group. Marcel seemed to give her dirty looks While Wildcat completely ignored her and had an annoyed look on his face when she glanced at him.
I don't know what it was, but Marcel suddenly stopped walking and looked like he was fuming.
"Hey guys, wait here for a sec, I need to show Mini something..."
I was slightly confused but Vanoss nodded and leaned against the wall.
We walked behind the corner and pulled out his phone. I was a bit curious, not denying it.
"Remember when we spied on the Math room?" And I took that video?"
I nodded.
"It's only 5 seconds, but it does the job..."
What I saw next made my eyes widen and my jaw drop lower than the floor.
Tyler.... and Kelly were fucking sucking each other's faces off. But I took my time and noticed how Tyler was trying to resist. I pointed that out to Marcel.
"Shit, you're right. She's just a fucking slut, and here I thought this was the one, cool girl..."
I'm going to be honest, it really just made me a bit depressed with that image imprinted in my head. But hey, who am I to ruin someone's life?
My face was a pure mix of shock and sadness... Everyone, even Wildcat and Kelly looked at me curiously. Marcel just looked a bit sad.
"I... need to go."
With that, I speed-walked down the hall with Marcel yelling my name.
"Mini... Mini! Shit I upset him...! MINI!"
I finally stopped at my chemistry class. I opened the door and ran inside. Mrs. Minx was at her desk, scribbling notes. She noticed me and smiled. She looked down at the register.
"You're Mini, right? One of Vanoss' group. I can tell because your name is crossed out with a black marker and your nickname is written there."
I nodded.
"Nice to meet you!"
Her British accent reminded me of home, and we talked for a few minutes, cracking jokes. But then the class started to fill up. As soon as I saw Kelly enter my mood instantly dropped.
She scanned the room until her eyes landed on me. She had no idea what I witnessed. But I'm not that douchebag who doesn't give people chances.
"Hey Mini..."
"Hi."
There was a bit of an awkward silence until she spoke.
"After you ran, Marcel screamed at me and said that you ran because of me, he also called me a slut..."
She pressed her mouth into a line. I sighed.
"Is it true?"
"Is what true?"
I could see she was trying to be understanding.
"That you kissed Wildcat?"
Her whole body froze. I continued.
"Marcel has a five-second clip of you two making out."
She looked speechless. I was trying so hard not to let a tear slip down my face.
"I'm going to be honest... there are some things in the past.... that happened. And he used to owe me. I'm sorry."
I could see that she was giving off a depressed vibe. I rubbed her back. She smiled shakily.
"The whole group now hates me, especially Vanoss and Wildcat. Marcel didn't show them the video... yet. But Mini, I'm not asking for a lot, but please, I had enough people turn on me already."
"I understand, don't worry."
She leaned over and hugged me. As much as it hurt me, I don't want other people to be upset, especially friends. The class was over quickly and I saw all of the guys including Wildcat down the hall. They soon spotted us and Evan uncrossed his arms and started walking towards us. Kelly looked scared and literally dragged me in the other direction.
"Stop her from getting Mini!"
Was the last thing I heard before Kelly kept dragging me, running from the guys.
