Always and Forever

Chapter 49: Fire Walk With Me

After school ended on Monday, I was walking past a classroom, I had a book in my hand and her phone out. 

"Dani!" a million voices called. She paused looked into a classroom and saw the Farmies, the Gargoyles, and Cheryl's LGBTQIA/Student council group. Regretfully, she walked into the room. 

"The farmers have the room reserved from 3-4 every Wednesday," Evelyn informed. 

"Not every Wednesday," Cheryl corrected. "The third Wednesday is reserved for monthly Student Council/LGBTQIA meetings."

"I didn't see you're name on Mrs. Bell's activity calendar," Evelyn said. 

"You dare lecture me, your Student council President on rules and procedures?" Cheryl demanded. "If this is the 18th century, I'd have you beheaded." 

"What do you think Dani?" Kevin asked. 

"I am not part of any of these groups," I told them. 

"Wrong, you're now my negotiator," Cheryl informed. "We need one." 

"Cool," I breathed uneasily. 

"Hey, Black princess, bitches," Kurtz said as he sat up everyone went silent and looked at him. "We're in the middle of a quest here." 

"Go crawl back to the freak show from whence you came, you abomination," Cheryl ordered. The Pretty Poisons and Gargoyles faced off each other, soon landed all three groups got into a fight. I went and tried to stop the fight, but I got hit a few times. Not too long after Jughead and Toni bumped their way in through the crowd outside the door and stopped the fight. The three of us then got pulled into Weatherbee's office. 

"What do you three have to say for yourselves?" Principal Weatherbee asked.

The fight had already started when we got there, sir," Toni said, stating her and Jughead. Then they all looked at me. 

"We were trying to break up the fight," Jughead stated. 

"Ms. Jones?" Principal Weatherbee questioned. 

"Kurtz and the Gargoyles aggravated the Poisons," I began. "Which initiated the fight, then the Farmies join in somehow. I tried to tear them apart but as you can see it didn't work out. Once Jughead and Toni got there they were able to help me tear them apart from each other and now here we are." 

"I see," Principal Weatherbee said. "Mr. and Ms. Jones, Ms. Topaz, you're the leaders of your respective gangs, and today's brawl is only the most recent incident of gang activity at Riverdale High. Someone robbed the Chemistry lab last night." We all looked at each other. 

"Someone robbed the lab?" Jughead questioned. 

"Thousand of dollars of equipment was taken. All of which could be used to cook drugs," Principal Weatherbee told us. 

"The Serpents don't cook, or steal," Jughead stated. 

"Neither do the Pretty Poisons," Toni and I both said. Principal Weatherbee then stood up from his chair, put his hands on his desk, and looked at us intently. 

"One more strike," Principal Weatherbee said quietly. "One more strike! And you're done in my school."

Later when we all left the office, we went our own way. I was also trying to avoid Sweet Pea since my face was starting to bruise up from the hits and I know for a fact that he would be pissed and fight someone. I put on sunglasses so nobody was seeing anything. I've seen him a few times but I've run the other direction. When I was walking to my next class I got pulled into a room with a hand covering my mouth. I then started to swing my hands and kick.
