chapter 8~ hallway meetings

She was being yanked toward the cafeteria at an alarming rate. This situation required quick thinking.

"L-Leo, wait- stop- ah-!" 

The boy hit the brakes when he heard his name come out of (Y/n)'s mouth. He turned to gape at her. 

"How does my name sound so sweet as it rolls over your tongue... How do you do it, my lovely (N/n)", he muttered under his breath.

The girl paused. "What was that?"

"Oh n-nothing, s-sorry..."

She gave him a confused glance, then proceeded with her thought. 

"Is it okay if you go ahead and find out if Tobias and Brayden are already there", she asked innocently. When Leo appeared torn over whether to leave her side or not, she added, "Please, I'm scared."

Ugh- I think I'm going to be sick... 

But it worked and Leo was sold. 

"Of course, (Y/n)!" He saluted and ran ahead, anxious to complete the task precious (Y/n) had asked of him. 

Okay, that's him out of the way. Time to dip- 

(Y/n) turned and sprinted off in the opposite direction. Pretty soon, she discovered a comfy, dark closet in which to hide for the duration of lunch. 

Whew

Luckily, she had packed a sandwich and fruit beforehand, so she would not starve. 

Haha, almost like I knew this was gonna happen, she laughed uneasily to herself. Had she suspected that this incident would occur?

She bit into her sandwich, considering.

The door flew open. Light poured in from the hallway and revealed a panting ravenette.

Ohhhh... this might not end well, (Y/n) realized as she noticed his furious expression. His red eyes danced brightly with flames of rage. 

He held up a hand to halt any words she might attempt to speak as he recovered, hands on his knees, sweat dripping from his face. He looked as if he had just finished a marathon. 

"Do... do you... know... how fucking big this s-shitty school is?? I have been... running... for so DAMN LONG WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU NOT IN THE CAFETERIA LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!?" He ended in a shout, having recovered his breathing. 

(Y/n) opened her mouth to answer, but was interrupted.

"That was rhetorical, now shut up." Ray closed the door to the closet again and flopped down on the floor, ignoring the girl's offended expression. She sighed in exasperation and drew up her knees to try and give him more room in the limited space that the closet offered.

After a moment of more panting, (which (Y/n) now suspected was for show), Ray managed to sit up just long enough to snatch her food out of her hands and take a bite out of it. 

"Mmmmph, fucking hungry", he mumbled through a mouthful of her sandwich. (Y/n)'s face looked as though dark thunderclouds had covered it in shadow. 

The next thing Ray knew, he was on the other side of the closet door, staring at the wooden barrier. He pounded on it, demanding to be let back in. 

"(Y/n) open the damn door! I WILL BREAK IT DOWN."

"That would be damaging school property, dumbass", (Y/n) called, her voice muffled by the wall in between them. 

"Think I give a fuck!? I'm the fucking principal's son!!"

"Do as you please then", her bored voice replied.
