We burst through the doors to the cafeteria, exhausted and honestly quite pissed. I was fucking furious, I had dried blood all over my white fucking shirt. I dragged on next to Marcus with a face that just said get the fuck away from me, maria a little ahead of me with Viktor behind, pretty sure he was looking at my ass which was probably slightly exposed from the fact that my skirt was caught on my dagger holster. I wasn't bothered to put it down at this moment in time.

"Come on, everybody. Vote Shabnam for class president." My ears ached at his winy little voice, shut the fuck up dork. "I'll win with or without your help but I'd much rather have your support." You have my support to shush. some of the group stopped, listening to what Shabnam had to say, that included Marcus and because of Marcus, that included me. "We need more nurses in the infirmary. We need stalls separating the group showers." I nodded my head at that one, I'm not always too keen on the other chicks at this school seeing my tits when I shower. Before I could even process what he was doing, Marcus grabbed onto my skirt, detaching it from my holster. pulling it down, recovering my ass, I blushed slightly, smiling at him before turning back to Shabnam. "If you put me in charge, there'll be..." Shabnam is cut off by Viktor putting a garbage can over his head. I give out a relieved sigh not wanting to hear his voice anymore.

Marcus moves quickly and helps Shabnam out of the bin, helping him stand too. I just stand there and sigh, this boy is too nice for his own good. "thanks" Shabnam says, adjusting his clothes.

"No worries." Marcus replies. I walk off, I didn't wanna stay any longer that I already had, Marcus knows where we sit, I don't have to tell him. As soon as I reached the table I collapsed, Petra and Lex looked at me while billy reached over and pats my head. I lay there, head on the table, body limp, fighting the urge to hurt somebody out of pure anger and frustration.

"SOOO, how was class?" billy asks, I let out a groan as a response. they all giggle, soon enough Marcus sits down at the table, taking the free seat between me and billy. I zone out for a bit, ignoring whatever the conversation was, thinking about why the fuck willy got to stay back but I fucking didn't.

"U2, white snake, banana-bloody-Rama, and def Leppard." I returned to the conversation hearing Lex's British voice, Throwing something to the side "sweet lord Jesus."

"What happened to the kids who didn't make it through? Are they...?" Marcus asks before being interrupted by yours truly.

"dead" I state lifting my head off the table, resting it in the palms of my hands.

"nah" billy starts "gothic Oompa Loompa monks revived the losers and whisked them back from whence they came." I roll my eyes at billy, focusing my attention towards Marcus who seems to be looking elsewhere.

"Hey y/n" Petra says, I turn my attention to her. She motions for me to come sit next to her, probably wants to fix my makeup. I sigh, getting up from my seat, moving around the table before taking the free spot between her and lex. She immediately grabs my face and starts wiping around my eyes.

"New pal?" I hear lex say, what the fuck is he talking about? Petra looks over before turning her attention back to me.

"I'm not really into the hierarchy, don't normally shit on the physically unattractive'" Petra starts, still wiping at my face, "but that dude and his crew are highly annoying." Petra finishes.

"Which dude?" I ask, getting a shush from Petra as she grabs a cloth and wipes my lips.

"Crew?" Marcus questions. Billy decided to answer this one.

"The goop patrol," he starts. Ahh, their talking about Shabnam, yeah, he's irritating. "Banker kids, mafia accountants, NASA- "

"-NASA?" Marcus asks with a laugh. I turn to him with a smirk on my face.

"Oh, there's a lot they're not telling you" I manage to get out before Petra grabbed my face, turning it back to her before applying cosmetic stuff to it.

"Whatever, I'm not gonna watch some kid get bullied" Marcus says, how chivalrous.

"These animals see kindness as weakness" Petra says finishing my face, finally letting me go.

"Safer to be a dick" I state, grabbing a mirror out of Petra's pocket, looking at her work. To be honest it was pretty good. She got my signature liner down pat, even reapplied my favourite lipstick and in record time too.

"Everyone loves a dick" billy says

"Oi, oi" lex starts "some more than others." He gestures towards me, jerking his hand to his mouth while poking his tongue into his cheek. I swiftly pull out my dagger stopping it just as it reaches his throat, he jumps calling out mommy probably nearly shitting himself. Billy, Petra, Marcus and I started laughing at his reaction. I pulled the blade away giving it to Petra knowing she would want to play with it now that it was out. my face immediately dropped as I saw Shabnam make his way over to our table, sitting next to Marcus, my previous spot.

"Any of you guys seen the new spuds Mackenzie commercial?" he starts, the atmosphere becoming more awkward by the second.

"you've brought a plague on our house." Petra says, looking straight at Marcus, my dagger in her hand, gripping it tight.

"You know, I hear they don't actually give that dog beer." He starts up again, ignoring Petra's comment, as he speaks, I take my dagger from her, knowing she would probably kill him with it. "PETA or some left-wing baby would complain."

"Do you know what goes great with people who love beer commercials?" lex began, this probably wasn't going pleasant. He puts his fingers up to his head "a bullet in the box" he finishes, and I was right.

"Anyway, Marcus," Shabnam starts up yet again, turning to Marcus "my parental units are gonna be out of town, so me and the crew were thinking of firing up the commodore 64, a little castle Wolfenstein, a charcuterie plate." Listening to him made my head hurt, I dropped my head into my hands, staring at random things around the room before focusing on the curls in Marcus's hair. Marcus seemed pretty uninterested in what Shabnam was saying, and Shabnam seemed to notice it.

"My dad prob left some amaretto too, if we wanna get a little crazy" this peeked his interest, it peaked mine too, didn't see Shabnam as an amaretto guy.

"we're in" Marcus states, everyone at the table in shock at his words.

"Come again?" billy said, slightly choking on his drink while turning to Marcus. Marcus turns to billy placing a hand on his chair.

"School is dry. Something's better than nothing."

"he's right you know" I said, turning towards a still shocked Petra.

"My dad was clear" Shabnam started, "just a few friends." We all got what was happening now, practically reading each other's minds as we try to pull this off.

"You can't win an election with just a few friends." Billy begins, swooping in, taking a spot by Shabnam's side.

"You need to connect with the proletariat." Lex continued. I decided to bat my eyes at Shabnam, giving an innocent smile, he blushes slightly.

"it'll be a small gathering. We promise" Marcus finishes. Shabnam nods his head, agreeing to our idea.
