The Truth

"As you all know, the winter formal is coming up in four weeks." The principal announces to the entire gym. "The school community will be looking for some helpers to help out with the decorating and the theme, etcetera."

The whole gym began to talk, I just sat there and listened. I wasn't interested in it like most people were, but I listened anyway.

"If any of you are interested in participating then you can see me and Danielle after assembly." She motions over to Danielle Woodbury. "In other news, the school's football team have one another season.. congrats to you all."

Half of the students cheer and shout at the news. Typical high school students.

"I would now like to hand it over to Coach Joyce to share a few words." She stepped off the stand and raised her arms to clap.

Soon the gym filled with clapping to welcome Mr Joyce to the stage. I suddenly tune out Me Joyce's speech and the rest of the assembly. I still wasn't myself after a whole two weeks of not having him here. I still couldn't cope with having him gone.

I somehow felt empty inside, but I don't know if it was just because of him, or what I've been going through myself.

Rose still wasn't talking to me, the only contact I could have with her is through Abbie, and even then she wouldn't pass a message on to me. She blamed me big time for her party. But I didn't expect them to come and gate crash.

Scarlet is still sick, after a week of throwing up and staying in bed. Andrew was going to go to the hospital with her today, for a check up. She's been worrying about the baby, thinking that it has something to do with it. I hope it's not, that's all they need right now.

I bring myself back into focus when the school bell suddenly goes off, signalling that it's after school time. Everyone began to get up and exit the gym, after Mrs Wilson dismissed us.

I grabbed my backpack, swing it around my shoulder and walked down the steps of the benches. I exit the building with being stopped by anyone which was great.

As I walked towards the parking lot I don't see Andrew's car anywhere, I look around for it but still no sight. I sigh out and grab my phone out of my back pocket, I was about to dial his number when a familiar black SUV is parked near the schools gate.

And standing outside of it, was yours truly Ruffo and Jhase. What do these two want now?

I walk over to them, feeling some eyes glued to my back, I chose to ignore.

"What are you guys doing here?" I asked them, slowly looking at them both.

"We're here to pick you up." Jhase saids looking around.

"For what?"

"Things, just things." Ruffo drawls out, already acting shady.

"Do you always have go act like an idiot?" Jhase sighs, asking.

I snort un-lady like.

"Umm, yes, yes I do." Ruffo nods.

Jhase just rolls his eyes before looking back at me, "Just come Chantelle. We'll explain on the way."
