More Lunchtime Drama & Trust Issues

December 2nd, 2013 - Fourth Period

The bell to the end of fourth period was music to AJ's ears. AJ stood up, and pushed her way through the desks, and got to and opened the door. AJ took a step out of class, when....

"Um, April. May I see you for a moment?" That could only be the voice of AJ's math teacher, Mr. Striker. AJ nervously turned on her feet, and walked up to Mr. Striker's desk.

"Yes, Mr. Striker?" AJ asked, hugging her books to her chest.

"Well, AJ, I wanted to talk to you about your grades. They've... they're dropping. Not drastically, but they can drop drastically very fast." Mr. Striker informed AJ.

"What? How? I've been turning in my work, I've been doing good on my tests..." AJ stuttered to even fathom what she was hearing.

"The second part of that is true. Your test grades are the highest in the class, but... your homework has been lackluster as of late. And I hate to say it, but... I think you're spending too much time with Dean." Mr. Striker explained.

"Is that right?" AJ turned her head to see Dean standing in the doorway. Dean had caught what Mr. Striker said, and was appalled. Dean then took a stride towards Mr. Striker's desk, before placing both hands on it, and leaning forward to stare into Mr. Striker's eyes. "Huh. And people wonder why I hate the adults that work here. You all think that you know what's best for us, you think you can tell us what to, what to wear, what to say, and how to say it. Well, I say... you, and the rest of your tie wearing co-workers can shove it." Dean finished his tirade, before beginning to walk out of the classroom, AJ following closely behind, and Mr. Striker left in shock. Dean and AJ exited the classroom, but Dean stopped dead in his tracks, AJ growing worried. Dean then shuffled his feet so he could look at AJ.

"AJ, you don't think you're spending too much time with me, do you?" Dean asked, deeply gazing into her eyes.

"No, baby. Not at all." AJ answered Dean. Dean's face turned into a smile, before he planted a quick kiss on AJ's forehead. Dean grabbed AJ by the hand, the couple then racing to the cafeteria.

December 2nd, 2013 - First Lunch Wave

On their way to the cafeteria, Ambrose remembered that he had forgotten his lunch in his locker. He gave AJ a quick kiss, told her to go to the lunch room by herself, and ran off. AJ skipped her way to the lunch room, but bumped into the same group of people she bumped into the last time she was in the lunchroom alone. Instead this time, Randy Orton was not with Dolph, Eve and Johnny, but rather it was Brad Maddox. AJ started to back away, knowing their intentions, and tried to run, but she was cornered in by Randy Orton, who was blocking her way out of this situation.

"AJ... we told you that you were going to pay for what your boyfriend did to us. And now... it seems as if your knight in shining armor isn't around." Eve teased. AJ tried to hide herself in the corner, knowing full well it wouldn't do anything. "Come on, AJ. Cry for us." Eve further laughed. Randy Orton was inching closer and closer to AJ, with the same crazy look on his face from the last time, but then Orton felt a tap on his shoulder. Randy Orton turned around, expecting to see Dean or Sami or one of the people from that group. But instead, it was the massive Paul Wight. Paul was a loner in the school, nobody wanting to talk to him mainly due to his massive stature compared to everyone else in the school.

"Let her go." Paul said. AJ couldn't identify Paul's voice, but when her head rose in anticipation, she knew who was there to help her out. AJ had never really talked to Paul, but they knew who each other were, and they weren't friends, but they certainly weren't enemies.

"Oh yeah? And what are you gonna do, huh fatty?" Orton laughed. Paul was quick to shut Orton up with a right hand to the jaw, which would send Randy down to the floor, unconscious. Paul lifted his eyes to look at Dolph, Eve, Brad and Johnny.
