RICH MUTATIO
I was still a bit tired when I woke up, but at least my mind and old self were back. Since I couldn't remember anything from yesterday, I had tons of questions running through my mind. The biggest one was why all the boys were in our room.
Grant pointed at me. "Looks like Captain Insomnia has woken up."
"I told you to stop calling me captain." I stretched. "But why is everyone here?"
"We're ranking the girls," Conan explained. "Everyone just chose our room as the meeting place for some reason."
I hopped to the floor and sat on Bond's bed. "How's the list looking?"
"Accurate." Howard handed the paper.
1. Penny Larson
2. Brianna Berenson
3. Mallory Riley
4. Kayla Merriman
5. Zoey Rivera
6. Annie Laygo
7. Illiana Moreau
8. Carrie Lenx
9. Emilia Sidhu
10. Stacy lang
11. Lauren White
12. Jessie Swango
Bond entered the room drying his face with a towel, leaving the door a bit open. "You're finally awake. How was your beauty sleep?"
"I still want to sleep for a couple of years, but overall, better," I answered.
"Bond, you never gave us your opinion before you left," Moses said. "Are you interested in any of the girls?"
Bond inspected the list. "Illiana maybe?"
"You're pretty brave saying that out loud," Justice said.
Bond handed the paper to Grant. "I don't like her, but since she likes me, I might as well vote for her."
"Illiana overtakes Annie," Grant said, changing the order of the list. "These ratings are just between us okay?"
"Of course, we're not stupid," Conan stated.
"I know, but we don't want this getting out. So whatever happens, don't let this information leave this..."
Grant was staring at the slightly-opened door. We glanced over and found Mr Darley writing in a notebook.
"Don't mind me. Just doing attendance," he said.
He had the audacity to close the door and walk away.
"He took notes and dashed!" Howard announced while grabbing a hanger. "Catch him! Kill him! And make it look like a suicide!"
Bond and I stayed behind while everyone else dashed for our teacher.
"I want to show you something," Bond said. "But this looks entertaining. Let's watch it first."
