"It was here. I swear to god" said Jamal holding his head in stress. "Here we go again" Ruby rolled his eyes and scooted closer to Monse to give Tori some space. "Another roller world delusion" sneered Monse.
Jamal pulled out his phone trying to prove Monse wrong. "We'll find the perp" explain Jamal as he sat in between the new couple. Together they looked at the surveillance footage. The footage showed Jamals bed filled with money.
Tori smiled at Jamal and patted his back. Everyone was so invested in the fact that they now had a ton of money. Yet, Tori was so happy to see that Jamal fulfilled one of his crazy dreams. "Good job Jamal I knew you'd find it , and lost it but you'll find it again" she said as she laid her head on his shoulder. He smiled and then continued to watch the footage.
In the video he was now rolling around on the money. Tori giggled and everyone else looked at Jamal in disgust. " wait what was that" asked Ruby looking at Jamal. "Yeah what are you doing" asked Cesar scooting away from Jamal. "Nothing not important ok" Jamal answered fast forwarding the video.
"We got something. My parents who are completely disrespecting my privacy" said Jamal being cutoff by Cesar. " And about to get it in on your bed" smirked Cesar as they look at the footage where Jamals parents did certain things.
"No they are not about to get it in" Jamal stops to see his parents laying on his bed. They all get up and look at the bed where they were just sitting on. Ruby skips the unpleasant scene to see Jamals mother taking the Rollerworld money.
...
They decided to wait until the morning to search for the lost money. They all went their separate ways only Cesar followed behind Monse.Tori worried for the boy and brought him one of his hoodies in order to keep him warm. She even offered to bring him a blanket but he opposed the idea.
As she walked she wondered how Oscar could do such a thing to his own brother. As much as she held a grudge against her own brother. She would never allow him to starve and die out on the streets.
Deep in thought she didn't notice a certain boy coming up to her. She quickly pulled out her pepper spray in fear of a killer. Yet, before she pushed the button she say the lanky boy she met at the hospital.
"Don't kill me, I'm very expensive!" He screamed as he closed his eyes. Tori smiled shoving her spray back down. "You never scare a Freeridge girl like that your lucky i didn't spray" answered Tori as she kept walking.
The boy followed her and strangely it felt right to be together. She had just met the boy but she felt a strange connection to him. They walked in silence but it wasn't awkward.
"I know it's past 12 but would you like to grab some hot Cheetos with cheese" the boy asked as they spotted a shop near them. " you don't have to ask me twice" she smiled walking together to the shop. They entered the shop and went straight to the cheese machine.
He grabbed two bags of Cheetos and started adding the cheese his focus was somewhere else and didn't notice cheese had gotten all over his hand. Once he noticed he desperately searched for a napkin. Tori just laughed at Leonardo's misery. He flicked his hand in hope that the cheese would somehow disappear how ever it landed right on Victoria's forehead.
He laughed loudly catching the cashiers attention. "Do you find this amusing fuck face" chuckled Tori wiping her head on his shirt. "Don't get sassy with me" he said grabbing the bags. The whole time they spend inside the store Leonardo either dropped things or crashed into stuff. The boy was so clumsy and Tori felt the need to protect the poor boy from crashing into another wall.
"Please never have kids" she said smiling as the walked out of the store. "Is it bad that you aren't the first person to say that" he said eating away. "We make a good team don't we" he asked looking down at the short girl.
He listened to Arctic Money and Cigarettes After Sex. She listened to Tyler the creator and Travis Scott. Yet, the whole way home they bonded over how different the two of them were.
