A few of us are going out on Friday-nothing special, just for pizza. You are coming with." Dallas leaned against the locker next to mine, grinning like a madman.He wasn't asking, he was demanding with such ease, it was like second nature to him.I shut my locker, with force. I glared at him. "I am also going whale hunting and planning a backpacking trip through Mexico."I walked past him but it didn't come as a surprise that he followed behind me."Sounds fun. Room for an extra body?" He was back to his usual amusement at my lack-of-it."Only the ones I'm hiding in the trunk," I grumbled.Dallas leaned closer into my side. "If we soak that in some sulfuric acid, I'll take the bodies place." He swung an arm around my shoulders.I shoved him off me, turning my body to face him. "I will gladly diminish the air from your lungs and stuff your rotting corpse body in the trunk."Dallas blinked, taken by surprise. He retracted, stepping back and putting his hands up in defence. "Someone is-n

Preslie was going on all morning about the ball since it was just in a week. I wasn't surprised to hear her yapping off about it but eventually I was tired and irritated of talking about how she wanted to curl her hair so I left.In our school, on the third floor there was a room at the end of the hall that had these massive windows that went up to the roof and overlooked the whole entire football field, parking lot and even further. No students were allowed in there unless it was for a necessary reason but me being me, I somehow had a key. Not that I needed one because picking locks was a talent I had.I was having a weird few days ever since that harsh conversation I had with River so I was never really in the mood to talk to people lately. I was constantly finding myself going back and thinking through River's words over and over again.I was leaning against the banister and staring out at the empty, snow covered field when a presence came behind me."What are you doing here?"I tu

"Preslie, can you hurry up? I can't feel my ass." I groaned, tapping my foot impatiently as I waited for her to finish curling my hair."Stop whining, you look amazing." She smiled as she finished the last strand. "We've been waiting for tonight for so long and now it's finally here. How do you feel?""We weren't waiting for it, you were." I rolled my eyes, standing up and taking a look at myself in the mirror. I had to admit that I did look pretty good.I liked my dress more than I thought now that I was all dressed up. For some reason, I was starting to get a little excited which was weird for me."You look so cute," Ocean smiled, coming over to Preslie and I by the vanity with her phone out ready for snapchat pictures.Preslie was wearing a long and elegant satin light pink dress that has a sequenced piece around the waist. It made her look like a princess and suited her personality.Ocean was wearing a long, light blue, sleeveless dress that flowed gracefully and was jewelled at t

I was sitting in AP English, finishing a handout to pass time as I waited for the bell to ring-signalling class to start."Eliza."I didn't bother looking up as Preslie called out my name in a sing-song voice. She hopped into the desk beside mine. "It has been three days since Dallas asked you-and you have refused to talk about it. You haven't said a word about it."I continued jotting down answers on my paper. "Have you also been timing how many seconds it's been since Black Sabbath broke up?"Preslie rolled her eyes at my remark. She leaned over, hovering over me to catch my attention. "I just want some details!""You were right there when it happened. You know the story as well as I do." It was almost amusing how much Preslie was highlighting this. At least one of us was excited about the ordeal I had put myself in.Preslie groaned. "At least tell me what the plan for tonight is.""What is the plan for tonight?" I asked, still looking at my papers with a playful smirk on my face. I
