I shut down my laptop at 6 Am and plop down on my bed, quickly crawling under the blankets. I've two more hours to sleep. Actually, today I and Aaron had planned to go to school early and find Aaron's mystery girl. But Aaron isn't well, so we postponed the investigation. Aaron had a heavy headache yesterday. It started while we were doing the combine study. Yesterday, Ty wasn't as harsh on him as last day and Aaron was enthusiastically doing all the problems. But then he suddenly started having a headache and he literally started wincing and groaning in pain. He said he is frequently getting headaches for some time but he has never got such a heavy headache before. No, he wasn't acting at all. It was real. We all were sitting on the big couch and he held my hand and was almost squeezing my wrist in pain. I and Ty were panicked seeing him like that. Even Ty didn't say anything when he fell on his shoulder whilst holding his head in his hands. At last, I started giving Aaron a fore

The basketball stadium filled with loud claps and cheers as our team walked into the court wearing shiny blue jerseys with Harbinger Pistons imprinted on the back. There were still ten more minutes for the commencement of the match but the court was already filled with a good lot of spectators. I think almost all the students stayed back to watch the match. Standing up from the bleachers, I and Aaron clapped and screamed along with the crowd, yelling Ty's name to gain his attention. He was already glancing around in the stadium and soon his gaze fell on us. He glared at us, signaling me that he was still mad at me for pulling that prank on him. Okay, I agree he has every right to be mad at me. He started throwing up when he had the match in just two hours. His whole team got worried thinking he won't be able to play. But he is now looking perfectly alright after taking a rest for two hours in the nurse's room. "C'mon Aaron..." I said and walked down the bleachers. I reached near

Tyler's POV My room door clicks open and Carrie comes barging in with a worried expression on her face just as I'm about to go to bed. "Aaron hasn't reached home yet. And no one knows where he is," she says. "What do you mean?" I frown, confused. "I meant what I said. His Mom called his friend Archer Spade, asking whether he knows where Aaron is. And Archer just texted me asking if he is with me." I look at the clock and see the time is almost 11 Pm. And it is heavily raining outside. Where has Aaron gone instead of going back home? "Both Asher and Aaron are missing. Nobody has been able to contact either of them yet. Ty, I'm afraid Asher kidnapped Aaron and did something to him." "What the hell! Just shut up Caroline! Asher isn't a monster or anything." "But then where is Aaron? Why are they missing together and not picking up calls," she asks. "Is their phones switched off?" I ask. "No, just not answering calls," she says. “I think we should track their phones and

I don't really know why they didn't just give us leave today. It's the second hour and no teacher has come to teach us yet. Currently, I'm sitting in the extreme back of geography class, simply peering at my phone screen. There are only a few students in the class. The others are probably in the canteen or library, discussing what is going to happen to our school or are wandering near the meeting hall, trying to get some news. A meeting is going on there to elect a new principal for our school. Yes, that's right, Mr. Morris already lost his job. There was a large crowd of students in front of Mr. Morris' office today morning. Our school manager, PTA board members, and many other important people were inside there along with Mr. Morris and Miss Payton. I heard people saying that Mr. Morris and the lady were so flustered and pale. There are also rumors that both were called to the police station yesterday night. They aren't arrested or anything but got some penalty and warning. N

It's now two hours since I and Aaron are sitting hiding in this filthy corner of the locker room, behind a couple of old unused lockers, keeping our mouths shut tight in the thick silence of the empty school building. Nobody has arrived or placed any rose milk in Aaron’s locker yet. We didn't even hear the sound of a footstep. Not a fly came here. And I don't think someone will come. It's already 7:30 Am. Just we became fools. We both idiots sacrificed our sleep and came here at 5:30 and simply wasted two hours sitting in this corner. We could have slept peacefully snoring or worked on our video game. I could have actually found this girl by simply checking the CCTV footage. But then I'll have to answer the question of how I found her. Also, I don't think I'll be able to recognize the girl from the footage. I only know a very few people in this school. I, at last, let out a sigh whilst stretching my sore limbs. I can't even feel my legs after sitting in the same position for two
