The hidden truth

Chapter 7 - actions speak louder.

After Cheryl's more demanding text message I thought about it and I could go for a party I guess. Although didn't Veronica and Betty say inner circle only? God who knows? I'll go anyway, worst comes to worst I'll just leave it's not like I have friends anyway.

I pulled up outside my apartment and park in the garage before climbing the stairs and going into my room, I looked at my hand and saw the blood that was on it and laughed, yeah I found it assuming. The jackass had it coming; not my fault that he doesn't know how to control himself.

I got changed into a pair of shorts and a top to sleep in before getting my bag ready for school tomorrow and climbing into bed when I saw my phone light up.

Addy: OMG LJ, what did you do? That was badass, kinda hot too babes ;), Penny's here and she's pissed, what are you gonna do? I know your out for blood but come on sweetpea, she'll find you. Your safe right? x

I laughed at her response, she knows I have repressed feelings and I tend to keep them in but sometimes you shouldn't over step your Mark because the consequences aren't as fun as everyone thinks, clearly.

Me: Addy, calm it. I'm fine perfectly safe and ALONE!, hows his hand? XD x

Addy: Omg LJ. He needs stitches and is calling for you, he wants to know where you've gone. God I knew you could be a badass but what the hell x

I laughed and turned my phone screen off and was about to turn over when I realised I should probably text Cheryl back but then again she doesn't talk to me so let's just not bother.

I turned over and went to be, the idea of sleeping in was inviting since my usual shift finished at 3am and I would get up at 5:30 for school, it didn't take that long to fall asleep and get off into a dream land filled with a loving family and answers.

One thing is for sure, if he thinks I'm working without answers again. He's got another thing coming.

Next morning!

I woke up to my alarm and smiled as I got up and had had a large amount of sleep. I pulled my quilt off and jumped in the shower to get the smell of alcohol and sweat off of me before school, when I got out. I grabbed my black jeans and a top pulled my trainers on, grabbed my beanie and put my necklace on before going downstairs.

I knew my actions last night would case a reaction from Malachai and God I was ready to see what it was. He's playing a game now and it's one I don't intended to loose. I put my helmet on and started my bike up and made my way to school trying to keep a low profile but like I said not easy to do with my features. 

Once I entered Riverdale, I made my way to the school and parked my bike before taking my helmet off and again, no one was out here so they wouldn't see me. I got off and walked into the building before putting my helmet and everything in my locker and grabbed my stuff for my lesson. I turned around to see Reggie and his bull dogs at the other side of the hallway making me roll my eyes.

Boys and their toys, I walked away and towards the student Room to sit where I saw Cheryl and her vixens. Not catching a break this week am I? Oh well. I sat down in the corner and started to read my book, my class wasn't till later on since they had been cancelled due to teachers not getting in. Archie, Veronica, Betty and Jughead walked in and sat on the sofas before Archie started to play a song on his guitar that I recognised which was a bad sign since when I read and hear music I tend to sing along out of the fact that I'm not paying attention fully to what I'm doing.

I noticed that he was playing, 'Can we dance' by the vamps, typically I'm a Panic girl but I have to say that song is good. I returned to my book as he played and hit the chorus and before I could stop myself I started to sing from the corner.

"I talk a lot of shit when I'm drinking, baby
I'm known to go a little too fast
Don't mind all my friends, I know they're all crazy
But they're the only friends that I have
I know I don't know you
But I'd like to skip the small talk and romance, girl
That's all I have to say so, baby, can we dance?"  I sang what I thought was quietly so no one would hear but unfortunately I was wrong as people turned to me as Archie carried on playing and I couldn't help myself and carried on singing the best I could. Singing was something I did love to do but never had the time and usually I was the one dancing not singing.

"I was nearly in, but then came in the pushy friend
Killed my vibe and took my perfect ten away
You know I need you, girl
My heart's not made for someone else
Take me in cause I can barely stand
Oh, oh, oh, oh, one more drink and I should go
Oh, oh, oh, oh, maybe she might like me though
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I just can't take this any more
Should I stay? Should I go?
It'll just lead back to her door
I talk a lot of shit when I'm drinking, baby
I'm known to go a little too fast
Don't mind all my friends, I know they're all crazy
But they're the only friends that I have
I know I don't know you
But I'd like to skip the small talk and romance, girl
That's all I have to say so, baby, can we dance?
I've been a bad, bad boy
Whispering rude things in her ear
Please say she'll break
Please say she'll change
Her mind and bring me back to her place
I talk a lot of shit when I'm drinking, baby
I'm known to go a little too fast
Don't mind all my friends, I know they're all crazy
But they're the only friends that I have
I know I don't know you
But I'd like to skip the small talk and romance, girl
That's all I have to say so, baby, can we dance?
I talk a lot of shit when I'm drinking, baby
I'm known to go a little too fast
Don't mind all my friends, I know they're all crazy
But they're the only friends that I have
I know I don't know you
But I'd like to skip the small talk and romance, girl
That's all I have to say so, baby, can we dance?" I knew i missed the first chorus and verse but that was when I was trying to stop myself from singing, I hadn't noticed that half way through Archie Andrews had sat across from me and all eyes were on us. Until I opened my eyes and I felt like they were about to bulge out of my head.

Oh no.
