Chapter 14: 'Detention'

(⚠️ TW ⚠️: Intense language)

3rd Person POV:

The bell had rung, signifying the end of the 3rd period. The class had gone good, nothing new other than some topics they learned. Boscha had asked the 2 if they were ok now. After an awkward glance and a small blush, both Luz and Amity just gave a simple nod and said yes.

The trio packed up their things, heading out the door and to the cafeteria. Student's loud chatter could be heard from outside the doors as they walked in. Even though they don't eat in the cafeteria anymore, Luz always felt like they shouldn't be in there at all.

Even though it's been about 2 months since the whole 'Zayn thing', it left a bad reputation on Luz's name. People would still give her nasty glances in the halls and such whenever they saw her, sometimes making her want to curl up into a ball in the corner.

The 3 walked their way through the cafeteria and out the back doors. Even though they weren't technically supposed to be out there, neither one of them could care less. The worse thing that would happen is that they would be let off with a warning and would be sent back, which was still pretty bad in Luz's opinion.

They walked their way to the bleachers, as usual, walking up to the highest row. Boscha and Amity started taking their own lunches to school, making Luz remember that she forgot hers at home. Luckily, Amity was kind enough to give her half of the PB&J sandwich she had and they shared a bag of chips.

Lunch seemed to be going smoothly enough. Luz would avoid eye contact with the Blight though, she didn't want to seem awkward in front of her. Thye would share small glances with each other from time to time, just to immediately turn away again.

Amity must have guessed Boscha saw this behavior because she gave Amity a small smirk as she ate her own sandwich. In return, Amity just gave her a glare while her face was bright red.

They shared a couple of laughs, just having normal conversations like usual. Eventually, there were only about 5 minutes until the bell so they started walking back towards the school. They had packed up their things and started walking back on the trail, it wasn't that long of a walk, maybe about 2 minutes. But, with Luz's lucks, of course, something had to happen in those 2 minutes.

"Hey!" They heard someone exclaim behind them.

They all paused for a second to see who it was. Turning around, the trio was met by the sight of Peyton and her goons walking towards them. "Oh no," Amity mumbled out before grabbing her friends by the arms and dragging them along the sidewalk.

"Amity, wait, who is that?" Luz asked. "It's Peyton, Luz," Boscha explained. Luz tilted her head in confusion, "You mean the one that hurt your ankle?" She questioned innocently. "Yes, that's her," Amity said. They were about to reach the front doors when they heard footsteps close behind them.

Peyton yanked Amity by backpack a threw her against the brick wall. "Ladies, get the other 2," She directed. Her goons went towards Luz and Boscha. Boscha swatted one off while the other managed to take off Luz's pack back. She opened it and threw all the things inside of it on the ground. Luz tried to pick up as many things she could with Boscha's help.

"What the hell?!" Amity screamed out. Peyton grabbed Amity by her collar and furrowed her eyebrows. "Thanks a lot, Amity! Because of your ankle, we lost our winning streak last week," Peyton barked out.

"Well, who's fault is that!?" Amity snapped back, holding Peyton's wrists and trying to pull her off. Luz and Boscha stayed looking at the scene from the background, both too struck to do anything.
