• ALL GONE OR MORE •

"kai wants to see you." greg walks up to el in the cafeteria as she looks up, "kai's in new york." she states.

"no, he just flew back and wants to see you. like right now." he says.

"i'm in school, whatever he wants can wait. go tell him that." she says, swapping food with mike.

"it's important. something about photos." he says as she stands up.

"couldnt you have just led with that!?" she scoffs, putting her jacket on, "i'm so close to dropping you." she grabs her bag, "i'm this freaking close!" she holds her fingers together.

"i'll go by your house later." she tells mike as he nods. "you guys should go too, we can all hang together." she turns to the party.

"when's your training session?" she starts to walk as greg follows. "tomorrow."

"i'll train you." she says as she fixes her hair and heads out of the school.

"ms diaz." henry greets.

"hi henry, thanks for coming all this way but i can drive myself. i'm not leaving my car here in this parking lot." she says as he nods, "we'll just follow then."

she nods, walking to her car and getting in. she steps on the gas quickly, pulling out of the parking lot and then driving off.

it didn't take long for her to arrive considering the speed she was going, speeding through one or two lights as well.

"ms diaz, hello." fiona smiles as she opens the door for her.

"hi fiona, can you take my bag?" el asks as she nods. "of course, sweetie." she takes her bag.

"kai's in his office." fiona says as el nods. "thank you." she says before walking off.

"knock knock." el knocks on the door as kai stands up, "hey angel." he grins as she walks over to him to give him a hug.

"hi! hmm, i missed you. did you do anything fun in new york?" she asks as he nods.

"i got you some clothes i thought you'd like and of course, i got those photos. all deleted." he tells her as she smiles softly.

"i love you, thank you. can i see the clothes though?" she grins as he nods.

"come on then." he drags her out and upstairs.

"try them on for me, alright." he shows her all the clothes. "only if you tell me how you got the photos." she says as he nods.

"i called a few people. then went back to the house and to his office." he says as she nods whilst picking out a top.

"i found it on a thumb drive." he says.

"did you look at them?" she asks as he nods slowly.

she sighs, "did you have to?"

"um, i had to make sure they were the correct ones." he says, "you looked really in pain though." he whispers.

"i was. turn around." she says as he turns around.
