Lunch was now over and it was time to head to the fourth class. Jack, Autumn, and Rusty got up from the bench and began walking to class.

Jack: Thank the Lord today is Friday. I hope to get do nothing the entire weekend.

Autumn: Yeah. I'm thinking about talking a wall with Rusty after school. Maybe we could get something at the cafe together.

Rusty: That sounds nice. I'm in the mood for a croissant.

Autumn: When I get to that cafe, I'm gonna get myself a frappuchino. Do you wanna go with us Jack?

Jack: No thanks. I'm thinking about heading back home and taking a nap.

On the way to class, Cameron began to approach Jack.

Cameron: Hey Jack.

Jack: Hey Cameron. Do you need anything?

Cameron: Zechariah wanted me to tell you that you don't need to go to your fourth class today.

Jack: Really?

Cameron: Yes. He also said to visit me for the counseling session and you can leave for the rest of the day if you want.

Jack: Do you need me to go to your office right now?

Cameron: You actually do have to head to my office now.

Jack: Okay. See you later Autumn and Rusty.

Autumn: See ya.

Rusty: Bye darling.

Jack chuckled and began walking with Cameron. She looked at Jack and smiled slightly.

Cameron: They really love you, don't they?

Jack: Well, I am dating Autumn and Rusty. It turns out they actually had a crush on me.

Cameron: They did? That's interesting to know.

After a minute of walking and talking, they arrived at Cameron's office. She opened the door and let Jack walk in first. She followed and she sat at her desk.

Jack sat down on a bean bag chair. He looked at Cameron and she looked back at him.

Cameron: So, can you tell me what happened Monday through Thursday?

Jack: On Monday, I had a bad headache and I had spent the entire day rubbing my head.

Cameron: Do you feel any better?

Jack: Yeah. When I left the academy, I met a spirit who got rid of my immortality and bad luck.

Cameron: A spirit? Did this spirit have a name?

Jack: They said their name was Orion.

Cameron: Orion huh? This spirit got rid of your curse and immortality just like that?

Jack: Just like that.

Cameron: What about Tuesday?

Jack: Well, Rusty confessed his love to me and we started dating.

Cameron: If I remember correctly, he used to bully you.

Jack: Yeah. But now, he's different. He became a nice person and he has kind intentions now.

Cameron: That's a character development right there.

Jack: Yeah. On Wednesday, Autumn had confessed his love to me and now I'm dating both of them.

Cameron: Both Autumn and Rusty?

Jack: Yeah. They have actually been really flirty with me lately.

Cameron: Do you know why?

Jack: Not really. Maybe it's because they're just like that but they never did any of that around me before.

Cameron: Maybe they are showing how much they love you since they had a crush on you.

Jack: Are you sure?

Cameron: I'm sure Jack. Besides, they love you no matter what.

Jack: Okay. I believe you.

Cameron looked at the time and realized the session was over.

Cameron: Thank you for being here Jack.

Jack: Is it time to leave?

Cameron: Unfortunately it is. I have to talk to Zech about our plans for the prom we have the week after next week.

Jack: It's gonna be after this week?

Cameron: Yes. It's gonna be on Wednesday.

Jack: Oh okay. Well, I'll get out of here and I'll head home.

Cameron: See you later Jack. Take care.

Jack: You too Cameron.

Jack got up and began to walk out of the academy. While walking, he looked around and was glad to be out for the rest of the school day. After a few minutes of walking, he arrived at the entrance.

He walked out and teleported to his front porch. He unlocked the door and walked in. When he locked the door back, Drake quickly hugged him and looked at him with a smirk.

Jack: Why are you looking at me like that?

Drake: Maybe I just want to smirk at you? Are you gonna do something about it?

Jack: Oh. I'm gonna do something about it.

Drake: Like what?

Orion: You two save that for later.

Drake: Sorry. I just couldn't help myself.

Jack: Sure. Whatever you say.
