❝ i'd be his if he asked ❞

"All students please report to Hall 4", the intercom announced early that morning. Adonis smirked turning his head to look at Leon who laughed along with Ares.

Before classes has started, the boys had broken into the science labs, making a large tub of elephant toothpaste. When they walked past, the solution had flooded into the hallway, blocking the pathway.

"Quietly make your way to-", the teacher got cut off as a student jumped through the open windows landing onto the building roof. The teacher grunted, muttering something about ' stupid teenagers'.

"Call Asher, we need to get out of here fast". Leon smirked, but it faded as he locked eyes with the class teacher who narrowed his eyes at the trio. Ares pushed them both out of the classroom, running ahead to avoid the nosy teacher.

They ran against the crowd leaving the students staring at them their mouths agape. The crowd parted giving them an easy getaway and the boys ran, hurrying to the school gates before the bells went off. Reaching for the door handle a voice stopped them.

"Where are you guys going without us?", Ember asked, hands zooming in on Adonis' hands on the doorknob. He gulped and turned to Ares for help. Before they could make a quick remark, Asher ran toward them out of breath.

"Hurry, Blackwell's coming", he panted, pushing the door open. Ember yelled again, halting them to a stop.

"What about Thea. We can't leave her here alone", she lowered her voice, blushing when Ares stared at her. Ares gestured for her to hurry and she pulled her phone out of her pocket. Ringing Thea she bought the phone to her ear. "Hey. Where are you?. Wonderful, we're leaving school and you're coming. I don't care...we're outside the admin office. Yes, and hurry up", she yelled, ending the call.

Seconds later, Thea turned around the corner, eyes widening once she saw the whole group standing outside the school doors. Walking up to Ember, she wasn't surprised when she slung her arms around her shoulder, pulling her into her side.

Thea wasn't complaining, Ember was warm.

Thea smiled at the group, shyly waving at Adonis when smiled at her. She loved his smiles. They were rare, but when he did smile, it lit the room.

Adonis couldn't stop staring at the arm around Thea's shoulders. She and Ember were always in some form of contact, whether it was holding hands, or hugging each other; they were always touching. Adonis didn't know how to feel about that.

"Ok, we gotta go", Ares said, pushing open the doors. The group made their way down the stairs, carefully ducking down to avoid being seen by any lingering students. They didn't want to be caught.

Reaching the gate, they pressed the emergency button which automatically opened the gate for them. The school had bypassed the gate system in case emergency services were called so they didn't have to spend extra time waiting for the gate to be opened.

"Fuck, who's car are we going to take?", Ares muttered, running his hands through his hair. Hot, Asher thought.

"I bought my Cadillac", Adonis quickly told the group as they made their way towards the private parking, which was in an underground building close to the school grounds. The valet there had let him through after Asher told him his father was the 'principal'.

The group nodded and followed behind him as they made small conversation. "So where are we going?", Thea asked, tucking back a lock of her hair.

"I don't know to be honest. Any ideas?", he coaxed, slowing down until they were walking next to each other, their hands occasionally brushing against each other.
