"Oh shush, I did get you out of the issue with the teacher, didn't I?" Aiden smirks, poking me once again.

He did help me with the teacher, shockingly enough he is good with teachers, so I guess I am saved from eternal damnation today.

Afterwards, we left for second period, that flew very fast much to my discomfort really.

Aiden made a vow to never leave my side ever since the first period and I didn't want to encounter him again.

So much for "never seeing him again".

I met up with Ava in third period and I told her about the whole situation.

A few minutes into that conversation I figured out that it was the "psychopathic probably murderer" Aiden she was crushing on.

At first I was shocked, but I didn't really make it obvious that I knew him otherwise that would raise a lot of questions and I don't want to explain the events of the past few days just yet.

So now I'm currently seated at lunch while Aiden repeatedly pokes my arm.

I've threatened him multiple times but nothing seems to work.

But the fact that he attends this school still surprises me.

Which actually made me wonder if the other guys were here too.

I mean how could I have stayed in school this long without noticing him, it seems almost impossible.

But then again I was never really social with anyone, so it's quite possible.

"Hey, Ari, hey Ai-" Ava joins us and she stumbles on her words a little bit, most definitely because of Aiden, I resist the urge the roll my eyes at his now present smirk.

"Hey Ava, you're friends with Ariii?" he drags my name in a teasing manner.

And I give a fake smile before throwing my fry at his face.

He scrunches his nose up and eats the fry as it dropped on the table.

"Yeah, I've known her since I came here, how do you know her?" Ava questions sitting down beside me while Aiden is opposite us.

Her composure around him is surprisingly calm considering how she was acting about him early, I guess this is her 'master plan'.

"Oh, we met through my other friend Noah"

Ava nods her head in understanding and uses her hand under the table to tightly squeeze mine.

I glare at her and release my hand from her grip.

"Speaking of which where is Noah?" I question.

Curiosity got the better of me besides I haven't seen him all day, which actually begins to worry me a bit, concerning what he said about people trying to kill him being true.

"He's not feeling well, didn't he tell you?" Aiden raises his eyebrow in confusion.

No, he didn't tell me.

He's probably lying, I'm pretty sure he's at home throwing knives at a human test dummy.

Because...

That's what psychopaths do.

"No he didn't, he's faking it, isn't he?" I smirk, knowing that I'm correct.

A guy that was pretty much making jokes and giving orders in my house couldn't have possible taken a dose of the flu so soon.

"Nope" I flash him an incredulous look and he rolls his eyes. "Pass me your phone" he says extending his arm out.

"No, why?" The grip my left hand has on my phone grows tighter at his request.
