The Boy Next Door *On Hold*

Brooklyn POV
*TWO DAYS LATER*

I called my dad. Well he called me. John made me tell dad that I was invited to stay at his house until he got home. I hate John.

My dad seemed to believe it but when he gets home John is gonna get it.

Today is freaking Monday so I have to go to stupid school.

I walked into the building and went straight to class. Val has been watching me like a hawk for the last two days so I was actually glad that I was stupid. Even though we do have half of our classes together... And we have lunch  at the same time.

I walked into the senior hallway and immediately went to find Derek. He was in the back of the room talking to his friends or as I like to call them his the Little Fuckers.

"Hey Brooklyn." Aiden said.

"Fuck off." I snapped.

Aiden was basically the head of the little fuckers and the school jock. If you can get in good with him you can basically do anything. He's basically the kingpin but without the drugs and guns and danger. He's actually kinda cute. I would date him but he's not my type. He's too... cocky, arrogant, annoying, stupid, etc.

I grabbed Derrek's arm and pulled him to the other side of the room.

"Hey guys just remember to stay appropriate." Justin called over his shoulder.

I rolled my eyes.

I don't know why Justin would make that comment when he is well aware of the facts that Derrek has asked me out several times only to be rejected several times. I didn't reject him to be mean, I just see him as a close friend. nothing more nothing less.

"Derrek what happened to you?" I said.

"Nothing happened can you let me go?" He said with an attitude.

I furrowed my eyebrows. "Are you mad at me?"

"No I'm not."

"Then what happened."

"Brooke nothing happened okay? I'm fine. You're obviously fine. So just drop it! Geez." He snapped.

"Woah." Witney said joining us in the hall. "What was that about?"

"I wish I knew..." I said.

Witney shook her head.

"What happened to you this weekend? You like disappeared."

"Oh... I um... My dad... He went out of town and... I don't know I just... Ugh."

I don't know how to explain this situation to her. I don't want to say anything until I know details and Val basically has me living under a rock that he just so happens to be sitting on.

Witney furrowed her eyebrows.

She opened her mouth to say something but the bell rang.

--------------------

I'm not sure what I want Brooklyn to look like, but because I was in love with the the chemistry shown by Team Janelskiy, Brooklyn is gonna look like Janel Parrish but with the Maddison Pettis hair.
