Hidden Truths

Chapter 3

It was now lunch, and I was walking down the canteen with Joshua by my side. We just had physics and let me tell you, I already love physics, but when you have someone like Josh sat next to you, you laugh so much that even if physics was your worst subject, you'd happily skip, yes skip, to class everyday.

"...and she was like, you get your facts straight lady and then Ari was like: they're already staight, I actually kept them in a wallet to make sure. And instead of you telling me to get my facts straight, maybe you should become straight." then I could no longer hold it in, and I started to laugh with Josh as we were given weird looks from the people around us.

"Oh god, you guys are too funny!"

"I know I know."

"Hey." Josh smiled when we got to the table, his eyes lighting up as soon as he saw Ari.

Awww, they're just too cute.

"Hi." Ari said returning the smile after finishing the bite which she took from her sandwich.

It was a table which would fit four people perfectly, and more and it would be squashy and any less, well that would work to.

Josh took the seat next to Ari and I took the seat opposite Ari.

"Ay." I smiled.

"Ay to you to." Ash said coming out of nowhere and along making me jump.

"So, how's your first day so far?" Ari asked while taking another bite.

"Good I guess, but before I continue of how my experience has been so far, I wanna go get something to eat." I replied getting up from the table.

I made my way towards the place where you can buy food and decided to pick up a simple cheese and cucumber sandwich accompanied by a cheese and onion drink and some orange Capri-sun. Yeah, that's ma food. I also grabbed a pack of malteasers, because come on, who can resist?

I was making my way back to the table, my tray of magnificence in my hand when...

Thud.

Thankfully, no food fell from the tray and nobody fell down either. I looked to see Drake in front of me, looking at me intently.

"Sorry." I said, it was partially my fault.

"It's okay." he said walking past me.

"You're supposed to say sorry to." I bellowed after him and he just turned to face me for a short moment and smile before continuing his walk.

Well, how well mannered.

Actually I guess it's something coming from the school's bad boy.

So I guess it'll do, for now.

I walked back to the table and sat down in my seat.

Everyone looked at me, as if they wanted to tell me something, but couldn't.

"...Fine!" Ariana said throwing her hands up in the air. "I'll ask. So, basically, don't think we're weird or anything, but our school has this thing, well it's not our school's, but most of us go there."

"Yeah..." I urged her to continue.

"So basically, it's like a street fighting thing, but it's in like this secret warehouse thing and it's run by one of the jocks families, he's left this school now, but the place is like famous in our school and some other outsiders."

"Yesh?" I asked taking a bite from my sandwich.

"So, we were wondering if you wanted to umm... come with us tonight?" Ariana completed looking a little nervous.
