IT WAS THE FIRST rehearsal for the play that day, Miss Jenn had gathered everyone backstage of the auditorium, it was time for the first rehearsal of Beauty and the Beast. EJ enjoyed the wave of nostalgia and small deja vu that surfaced when he took his seat behind the desk titled 'BEAST.' He was glad that he had come almost full-circle since last semester, otherwise, he would be urged to move around the name cards.
The fact that he wasn't sitting next to Ricky encouraged him, he didn't need to think about him right now. He was seated between Gina and Marcus, he'd lucked out and gotten good friends as seat buddies.
"Hey." Marcus gave him a brotherly nod as he took his place beside him. "It's nice to see that you and your pal Ricky made up." He watched EJ's brows curve. "I saw you in your car yesterday."
"Yeah. We're friends again." EJ didn't want to tell him too much, he knew to tread carefully with Marcus, he was aware of the fact that on more than one occasion he'd whispered about the other boys in the team.
"Hmm." Marcus nodded. "That's nice." It was suspicious━he was more talkative than that. To see Marcus back down was like watching a lion quietly dance past a mouse.
"Good," he lowered his voice at the sight of Ricky and Big Red, "because we promised you wouldn't say anything to Ricky..."
Ricky sat next to Marcus, a smile on his face, he didn't know whether to be friendly or not to Marcus. He still wasn't sure whether he could trust him or not.
