"So. . ."
They were sat outside for Lunch, it was a pretty nice day.
"Where's Enzo?"
Maritza rolled her eyes, pointing somewhere behind her,"Sitting with the basketball team, he's got two 'friends' on the team, who are literally jerks to us and Enzo is always different around them!", she folded her arms, her face turning a little red in anger.
Trinity rubbed her back,"Don't worry too much, I'm sure he'll come around.", Trinity turned to Nicky,"I think we should give you some advice, basically on some teachers but also on some students like Enzo's basketball friends.", Trinity titled her head to one table,"See the boy in the yellow coat with short sleeves?", "Yeah?", "That's Delory, he's a bit of a bully; Only when he's in a bad mood, he tends to shove and bang people's heads up against the lockers, hard to tell when he's gonna snap; I'd avoid him a bit.", Lucy then nodded forward,"Finch likes to take pictures of people fighting, crying or doing anything she deems interesting or entertaining, so I'd be careful around her especially if she has her camera in hand.", Nicky nods, writing that down,"Enzo's friends are easy to avoid, they don't go near us but they do make fun of us from afar or trip Maritza or Ivan.", Nicky looked up,"Can't a teacher or the Headmistress do something?", Aaron shook his head,"Nope; They're all useless. We have tired before, but we all gave up and just took matters into our own hands which usually lands us in the office, but he gets away with everything cause Delory's The Mayor's son.", oh, Nicky noted that down.
Ivan peaked at his notes,"You write a lot down? Why??", Nicky turned to him,"Uhm. . . I like writing down details.", "Ah.", so they all sat in silence for a moment before talking more about their club and what they do.

"And that should be everything."
Nicky found his locker,"Oh.", "Your old school have lockers?", "Uhm, some of them; Or you just carry your bag around.", some of them?
Aaron shook it off, best to not ask, probably private stuff.
Nicky smiled,"So, you gonna stay after school?", "Yeah, just let my dad know about it and he's fine with it.", so they walked back to the club room.
"So, how you going to make the badge?"
"Oh! We have a Tech & Design Room/Workshop, not to mention Lucy's Dad is a teacher here for Tech & Design and also has his own stuff in the garage.", Nicky nods, mental note of that.
"You always seem to be noting things down in your head."
"Hm."
That surprised him, Aaron smiled and they walked to the Club Room.

"Hey, Nicky!"
Nicky turned back, Trinity rushing after him,"Sorry, uhm. . . Could I talk to you for a second, I didn't want to talk about it in front of the others.", Nicky nods,"Okay, what's. . . Wrong?", Trinity sighed,"I'm sure you've noticed some. . . Tension between Enzo and Aaron, hard not too.", Nicky nods, Trinity folded her arms and rocked back and fourth,"I don't. . . Wanna get into too much details, but there was an incident that lead to those two falling out, and. . . Enzo ended up spreading rumours around about Aaron and his family, and they were proven false and he found out, they got into a fight and haven't been on good terms since. . .", Nicky was taken back, so that's why?
"Uhm. . . What was. . . The incident?"
Trinity sighed,"It's a very long story. . . And, I can't even begin explaining everything; But if Enzo and his team, say anything about Aaron and his family, don't believe them; Okay?", Nicky nods,"Yeah, I mean. . . They're pretty nice people.", Trinity smiled, then saw the bus driving up,"Oh! Gotta go! See ya!", Trinity ran to the bus.
Nicky got into the car.
Jay smiled at him,"So, how'd it go?", Nicky smiled a little,"It wasn't too bad.", Jay gave a thumbs up and they began to drive home,"What was the Banner like?", "Full of great people, Narf.", Nicky nods, good that his dad was happy as well.
