Florida Boys

Chapter 12

"Would anybody like to explain what happened?" Principal Juliani said for the fourth time.

Nobody said anything. I had nothing to say. I had no idea who started the fight, although I was fairly sure it was Ash. And I didn't know how it began.

Seth knew better then to eat out Ash. The principal may have been able to protect him at school. But there were a dozen other places Ash could have tortured him.

As cold as Ash was too, he wasn't going to through his brother under the bus. He could easily make a up a lie saying his brother attacked him. And I'm are the principle would have believed it too. But as heartless as everyone thought he was, Ash wasn't actually that bad. He had a conscious(don't know how to spell it sorry!) and he had guilt.

"Well then, I'm going to call your parents." She said.

Ash smirked. "Good luck with that."

"Excuse me?" The teachers eyebrows furrowed together. Obliviously she hadn't gotten used to Ash's lip.

"I mean, my dad's on a business trip, and my mom.." He trailed off.

Seth and Ash looked warily at each other.

"Yes? What about your mother? Where is she?" She asked.

"My mom's volunteering at the hospital. You aren't allowed to use cell phones there." Seth said.

She sighed. "Alright then. I won't call your parents."

"Thank you." Seth said.

"But." There it was.

"You will all have to go to detention on Friday for the next three weeks." She said.

My mouth hung open. She couldn't be serious.

"You are dismissed."

I say in my room finishing my French homework. Ever some this morning, Mr Paré has been sneering at me, and I didn't want to give him a reason to hate me.

"Can I come in?" Ash asked.

I looked up.

"What do you want?" I asked

"Look, I'm sorry. I really didn't mean to hit you. I just lost it."

"And what about everything else? The attitude? The almost killing us this morning. Even throwing me in the pool. What is wrong with you today?" I asked.

"I've jut had a lot on my mind. It's been stressful." He said.

"What could've been so stressful that you had to be horrible to everyone? I mean look at poor Seth, you broke his nose. What could possibly excuse that?" I asked.

"I know. It was horrible. I just have  something really personal going on." He said.

"What? You know I hate when people just won't admit that they did something wrong its just-"

"John has cancer." He said. I froze.

"I'm sorry what?"
