Perfect Weapon

My Promise, I'll Keep it.

The next morning I woke up practically on top if Toby. I kinda panicked quickly getting off of him forgetting about the night before, accidentally waking him up in the process.
"good morning beautiful" he had an adorable groggy sleepy voice.
"good morning" i smiled relaxing a bit.
he lifted himself onto his arm and rwsted in it, leaning towards me.
"you ok?" he asked.
"yeah" I smiled "just-" I started. "oh shit" I jumped out of bed and looked at the clock.
"ugh, I'm going to be late." I said.
without even thinking I took off my sweatpants and threw on some old black skinney jeans.. infrount of Toby.
I couldn't find a clean shirt.
Toby stood up and walked towards me. he put his hands on my shoulders.
"West, calm down, you have 30 minuits, plenty of time. that clock is just a little fast."  he chuckled a bit.
I rolled my eyes and finished buttoning my pants.
He followed me into my room. I reached in my closet and pulled out a tank top and an old twenty one pilots shirt. This time before changing I knew Toby was there, but I still didn't think anything of it. I look of Toby's old tesshirt that he lent me the night before and replaced it with the tank top. I noticed Toby staring as I did so.
"what?" I smiled continuing what I was doing.
"nothing"  he chuckled and sat down.
"hey" I started as I put on the teeshirt.
"slendys not going to like this.." Toby finished.
"heh, did you just read my mind?" I smiled "but that's what I'm getting at, we probably shouldn't tell the pastas anytime soon." especially the age difference, 3 years isn't a huge gap, but when your under aged it seems like it is. I thought.
"ok, sounds good. so.. what are we? Do I finally get to call you my girlfriend?" Toby gave me a smile before blushing.
"only if I get to call you my boyfriend" I smiled back.
"great, so its settled. dinner Friday night, ma'lady?"Toby asked standing up.
"so its settled." I smiled.
he held his arm out for me to take it, so I did.
he walked me to the kitchen.
"waffels?" he asked.
I laughed a little.
"why not"
.
after we ate, he walked me to the edge of the woods, holding hands the whole way. he would swing then occasionally.
"have a good day, and hey- no skipping classes." he smerked before huggimg me.
"fine* I smiled.
"see ya" he said as I walked off.
"bye Toby" I giggled.
I stopped at the gas station and got myself a monster. I sware eventually these things will be the cause of my death. I laughed at my thought and went to school
I was a few minutes late, but not late enough to get in trouble or anything.
the day went on just like yesterday.
t lunch everyone wanted to know why I wasn't in the chat.
"u don't know, I was just.. busy?" I said as more of a question than a statement
"with who?" Jay perked up seeming interested.
"ugh, okay, you guys can't tell any of the other pastas for that after" I said looking at them.
they all scooted in to hear.
"I'm dating Toby" I said waiting for their reactions.
"I knew it! you owe me 10 bucks!" Pierce said to Jay.
I looked confused.
"we all knew it was going to happen." Blaze giggled a bit.
"h-how" I asked.
"hey, I know when a girl likes a guy, I get that look a lot. he winked." Pierce laughed at himself along with the rest of us.
We carried on our casual conversations of games, fandom, music, and normal stuff, before Pierce and I had a side conversation leaving everyone else to their conversation disregarding us.
"look, West ive been wanting to tell them and you about Madison, I just haven't really been.. brave enough I guess and I think with you telling about u and Toby maybe it would be ok?" he seemed worried like he felt bad or something.
"pierce. what are you afraid of?" I giggled a bit. "why would I care you dork. just tell us." I ruffled his hair.
"watch the hair pesant." he laughed and fixed his hair.
"guys, you know that girl Madison?" he started.
"the girl u play Xbox online with a lot, right?" Carter asked.
"yeah, her. she's gonna be coming here in a few weeks, And I thought you should know we've been dating for a few weeks now." he blushed a lot.
"awe, that's great pierce." Roxy said. we all said something nice, it scares me how nice we are to each other. I laughed a little to myself.
then the bell rang, and we said our goodbyes, or more like our 'can I copy your homework for the next class' that was basically all of us at least once or twice.
I really can't wait to go home to Toby, I wonder what he's doing anyways.
I wonder how Ace is. I think everyone is just trying to act happy and get used to him not being around, as horrible as that sounds, it really is the easiest way to deal with something like this. its obvious were still broken up about it, but we aren't as bad as we were. We all know Ace wants us to be happy, as clécha as it sounds, its true.
My last few classes always go by slow. I dreaded the rest of the school hours after lunch.
I finally made it to my next class and took a deep breath as I went in seeing every seat filled up accept for mine and Aces. I decided to sit in his seat, Mrs. Reed wouldn't notice, or mind. I got my pencil and paper out and began working.
The intercom came on and the principal spoke very faintly into the microphone.
"hello, students, staff, visitors. I'm going to ask you to stop class for a moment and join us in the gym." was all that was said. I was kinda confused because that has never happened before.
The halls filled with happy teenagers glad to get out of class.
I cought up to the gang and we found a seat on the bleachers almost directly in the middle.
my heart was racing, I don't like being around that many people, its like a fear of mine, Jay is the same way.
Everyone got settled in and got quiet before the principal began
"good afternoon, students, staff, and visitors. Everyone in this room is here for a reason, correct? some to learn, some to teach, some to suprovise. Today, only 756 people attended school. Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this number?"
a few people raised their hand and incorrectly guessed.
"there are 757 people that attend this school, and only 756 attended. Today, about an hour ago, we lost a very loved member of this school" he kept talking, but everything he was saying was going in one ear and out the other.
my heart slowed down, a lot. tears were streaming down my face. all I could hear was my heart beat.
I noticed Jay, Carter, pierce, and Roxy were all hugging. I couldn't move to join in the hug. I was in shock.
Once I regained control of my body, I stood up and walked down the stairs. I knew several staff members were telling me to sit back down, but I couldn't hear them, all I heard was ringing and my heart beating.
I walked out  of the gym door and eventually, out of the school. I didn't stop walking, people were following me, I didn't know who, didn't care. I just kept walking.
After walking for a few minuits it all hit me. I was aware of my surroundings. I turned around to see the gang walking not far behind.
"West, its ok. come here." Roxy said holding her arms out for a hug.
I know what I have to to to get him back, I promised I wouldn't let him die.
"Zalgo" I wispered and smerked before running into the woods.
