Marissa was making her way across the street early this morning to see everyone's reaction to the school prank. Even though a teacher was murdered here last night the principle's thought it would be better for the students to come in to have group therapy today. He was a big touchy feely kind of guy, so whenever something bad happened in town we would do this.

As soon as she got through the gate she was stopped by the registration table. "Marissa, here is your group button and have a good day. By the way great job on the prank, it's too bad about Mr. Ranson."

"Yeah," Marissa nodded walking to the football field where her group was supposed to meet. Probably in the bleachers since they had flooded the actual field with bubbles. When she got to the field everyone was laughing and snapping pictures of the bubbles. She also saw Jude sitting off from the rest of the group looking out in the distance.

"Clover should be here for this." He whispered when she approached him. He hadn't looked up to see who it was so it's safe to assume he was just going to say this to everyone, "It's not fair."

"Where is Clover?" She asked delicately, as she sat next to him.

"With Dave," He whispered. "She worked so hard on this."

"So let's help her experience it." Marissa said pulling him up from the bench. "Get out your phone and start recording."

Marissa ran down the field jumping the small fence that was around it, Jude recorded as she ran through all the bubbles laughing when others started to join her. "The senior class rules," people started shouting from the bubbles.

Pretty soon the principle showed up and security chased everyone out of the bubbles. "Jude!" Marissa called as she ran into the school. He chased after her inside. "So Ms. Potter did you like your apple today?" she asked in a very reporter like voice. The next hour and half Jude, Phillip, Gabby, and Marissa filmed, photographed, and posted people's responses to the prank. They made sure to tag Clover in every photo and sent her, a link to all of it.

The small act made Jude feel better about his fellow classmate Clover missing the golry she so rightfully deserved.

"Do you think they're going to charge me?" Clover whispered to her brother. She was wrapped up in a red blanket on his loveseat. This morning when she had wanted to go to school but the principle suggested she stay home instead just until the news of last night's events quieted down. After five minutes alone at home she had called Dave and the two of them decided to spend the day at his apartment.

"With what?" Dave asked bringing a cup of hot chocolate to his sister; cozying up next to her on the love seat. "Trespassing, the senior prank is a beloved town tradition, I'd like to see them try that."

"Dave," Clover loved how comforting her brother was, even now he had managed to get a smile on her face, but she was scared, truly and properly scared. "What if I go to jail?"

"You're not going anywhere." Dave said wrapping one arm around his younger sister; he had been up all night keeping track of the case as it developed and so far the police were only calling Clover a witness. "I'd give up my law degree before I'd see you sent to prison."

"You know the police are less then reliable in this town," Clover said burring her face in his chest, Dave took the cup out of her hand a moved it to the side table before she could spill it, "half this town is just dying to see me sent off."

"Listen to me Clover Fray," Dave took his sister's head in his hand lifting it so she would look him in the eyes. "You are not going to jail. You and I are going to get through this whole thing together, alright?"

Before Clover could say anything her phone went off making a whooshing noise signaling she had a Text message. Reaching over to the side table she unlocked her screen to see a new picture message from Jude it was him standing in front of the football field with his thumbs up, behind him you could see the whole field filled with bubbles. The message read; 'Still the best prank ever pulled.'

Laughing Clover turned her phone to her brother so he could see the picture too. "No one's ever going to forget this one." He said reassuringly.

Clover spent the day watching her Supernatural fifth season box set with her brother and laughing at videos and photos sent to her in-between brooding moments. By the time they had reached the sixth episode Clover could almost forget the night before. Everyone at the school was being so supportive toward her and Jude hadn't gone five minutes without sending her a message. If it wasn't for the fact the she was forced to stay home, because she was murder suspect, she would have called this the best day ever.
