Jaiden's POV
"EVERYONE UP!" The police officer screamed.
My eyes shot open. So I guess, it wasn't a dream... I was actually in the detention center.
I sighed and got out of bed.
I noticed my roommate had began to make her bed. I immediately thought it was an order, so I made mine too.
"Hi, I'm Jaiden. I came in late last night" Introduced myself to my roommate.
She didn't respond.
"Sorry if I scared you. You probably woke up and was like 'what the fuck? Who the fuck is that?'" I laughed.
Silence.
"What's your name?" I tried to make conversation.
Still nothing.
"Alright then" I said awkwardly.
We walked to the cafeteria to eat breakfast.
The lady who was serving us, basically fed us baby food. It looked like mashed potatoes, but tasted nothing of the sort.
It was disgusting.
I sat a random table full of people and began to eat my disgusting bowl of mush.
There was an awkward silence.
Until I said, "This is the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted"
A boy with pink hair sitting across from me said, "After being here for such a long time, you develop a tolerance to it"
"Really?"
"No, no matter how many times you eat it it's still disgusting" He chuckled.
"The least they could do is get pizza flavored mush, instead they get Constable Beaudry to shit on a plate and call it breakfast" An orange haired teenage boy, with blue eyes and covered head to toe in freckles joked.
Another boy sitting beside the pink haired boy said, "What if I said I kind of liked it?"
We all raised our eyebrows in disbelief.
"Hey, it's not that bad!" He defended himself.
We all laughed.
"I'm Nolan btw" The pink haired boy greeted me.
"Liam" The ginger greeted himself.
"Ben" The weird boy who liked the mush introduced himself.
"I'm Jaiden"
"So, Jaiden how'd you end up here?" Liam asked.
"I didn't do anything wrong, I was framed. I was drugged and somehow thrown in a bank. The person who drugged me made it look like I was trying to rob the bank. And since my parents are white, they sent me here" I explained.
"Oh shit" Ben responded.
"Who would want to frame you?" Nolan asked.
"It's a really long story"
"Hey! We're not going anywhere"
"Then you better prepare for the story of your lives, because shits gonna get real!" I exclaimed.
I started to explain the tension between Adam and Meghan and how it started Adam's huge taste for revenge. I started with the lock down at school. And how Adam held a gun to my head. I told them about the fire at the Titanic. I also told them about the abandoned warehouse, where we had to save Keegan. Then I told them the little bit about Ava falling into a coma. Next, I told them about how amazing my friends were, and how they saved me from coming to the detention center the first time by stealing a police car! I may have mentioned the little romantic bits with Bobby and I too.
"Holy fuck" Liam shouted, "you have really fucked up lives"
"Thanks"
"No, I just mean that, this Adam guy, really fucked with all of you" Liam re-worded his statement.
"Yeah, Bobby and I had our own nickname for him. We called him 'Echo Pussy'" I giggled.
They all laughed.
Maybe the detention center wasn't so bad after all
