It Could Still Be Love

Chapter 8:Detective Ace

Ace pov

I got up yawning still a little tired from everything that happened last night, climbing into a tree was not a good idea, my ass hurt from the tree bark. I sat up looking over at what was supposed to be my clock but all that was there was empty space, I just got up not really paying any attention to it, I finished getting ready and walked out the door Yesterday was still a mystery but I didn't have the time to worry about that as I was a bit late on the account of my missing clock

... wait where did my clock go-

I seriously need to figure out where my clock went maybe I could figure it out with some good old device ace's help (yeah I talk to myself so you do too)

I walked into school and just kinda auto looked for cade since that's just where I am most mornings but, from what I could see today was going to be a bit of a weird day after what happened yesterday but that didn't really matter much because I'll figure it out and get this ship back on track.

"Hey Cade, morning," I said walking up to them

"Oh, hey Acey" They fixed their glasses because turning their head knocked them off a little

"Actually it's detective Ace for today" I said pulling out my detective hat and putting it on while grabbing a notepad

"Oh, what are you trying to figure out," Cade laughed a little nervously which was odd

"Currently what happened to my missing clock, I also have something more important for later though," I said putting the notepad in my pocket

"NO IT'S NOT!" We both look back at Haven's shouting and laugh but I see Marcy giving Cade a death stare from behind the group and Marky walking by also looking at Marcy.

Oh that's right I need to talk to him, but I can't let Cade know that ... so how am I going to do this (... Right in the most shady way possible) I should just walk up to him low profile, I realized I was staring at Marky and quickly whipped back around (Yes Ace sassy hair flip style you work it)

The bell wrung meaning it was time to execute my plan.

I walked next to Marky by the beaver room, although I saw Wren helping Haven into vent ... that was weird as hell but hey who am I to question.

--------After the discussion--------
(Because I'm lazy)

Running to class I noted over the notes from my talk with Marky and something didn't seem right about the difference of notes, someone was lying

I think I'm going to have to talk with Lena to get this all sorted out and maybe talk with the shipping clu- group. The shipping group.

---------After 2 more periods-------

I walked into the lunchroom and saw almost everyone sitting at tables a noticeable difference in groups, while Smalls looking around for something and Marky like they saw a ghost.

I walked over to where I saw Cade sitting alone for some reason "Hey there Acey wacy"  Cade said as I sat down

"Sup Cade, can I ask you a couple of my questions real quick," I ask taking out my pen  and tiny notebook

"didn't we do this already Ace I told you what happened from my point of view go talk to Marky or ... Lena" Cade looks frowns at the names

"I think you should talk to Marky and Lena this is something stupid to break up a whole group that's been here for almost a year, you should also apologize to at least Lena for what happened you know" I said looking around at the empty table 

"... I'll apologize to Lena, Marky needs to apologize to me first for me to forgive them at all and after that its going to be a ruff start."Cade said sipping their Monster Energy strawberry
