Chapter 8 (She is so into me.)

Chapter 8

Freezing in my spot, I let my jaw hang open as I watched everyone scurry around the room smacking into me every so often as they hurriedly disposed of all the drugs and alcohol that was laying around the furniture.

"Shit!" I heard Sam whisper loudly as he accidentally knocked over the hookah, letting the black coals smudge all over the white carpet.

"Nice going dumb ass!" Troye tapped Sam's back as he bent down to help him clean up the mess.

"I'M CALLING SECURITY IF YOU DON'T OPEN THIS DOOR RIGHT NOW!" We heard Mr. Horrowitz shot once more, banging on the door for the tenth time in the last thirty seconds.

Opening the window, Caspar tried to push the stench of smoke out of his room. "Coming Mr. Horrowitz! I just came out of the shower and I'm getting dressed." Caspar screamed at the door as everyone crawled into hiding, whether it being behind the curtains, under the beds, or anywhere anyone could possibly fit.

Standing there, I was still processing the madness as I felt someone pull me towards the closet, snapping me back to reality. "Cher, what the fuck are you doing? Get in here!" Jack screamed in a low whisper as he threw me into the closet, crawling in beside me as he closed the closet door.

Peeking through a hole in the closet, I watched in awe as Zoe and Alfie threw some books on the bed and dropped themselves next to Dan, pretending as if they were studying.

Walking to the door, Caspar slowly opened it to reveal a short, quite chubby, and visibly angry man in his mid fifties. Pushing past Caspar, he didn't say a word as he stormed into the room in fury, huffing and puffing as he looked around for anything unusual.

"Can I help you Mr. Horrowitz?" Alfie looked up from the book he was currently 'reading'.

Breathing heavily, he turned to Alfie, his face as red as a tomato, making me want to burst in laughter, but before I could, Jack held is hand to my mouth, reminding me that we were still hiding in the closet. "YES! Yes! I… I think-- I know I smelled some… uh drug coming from the room and… and heard some noise! Yes some noise!" Mr. Horrowitz looked around the room once more in confusion and desperation.

Zoe sighed and put her Mac down, shaking her head in an act of annoyance. "Mr. Horrowitz, we're trying to study for a test tomorrow. What are you talking about?"

"Don't give me that attitude young lady!" Mr. Horrowitz pointed a finger at Zoe, and then continued to inspect the room, his eyes suddenly falling on the black smudge on the carpet. A satisfied smile appearing on his red face, he turned to look at Caspar, Zoe, Alfie, and Dan. "Well… Well… How do you explain this then?" He put an emphasis on the word 'this' as he pointed a shaky finger at the black smudge.

The room falling silent, everyone looked at Caspar hopping that he had a good explanation, and to everyone's surprise he did.

"Oh, I spilt some coal today by accident as I was trying to work on a project. You see, we are supposed to produce electricity from coal for one of my classes. " Caspar said in a completely confident voice, crossing his arms as Mr. Horrowitz shot daggers at him with his eyes.

After what felt like hours but was only a few seconds, Mr. Horrowitz finally gave up and walked back to the door, shaking his head in disappointment as he was leaving the room empty handed. "You got lucky this time you little twats." He said in a low growl as he walked out of the room, throwing the door closed behind him.

Taking a much needed breath I didn't even realized I'd been holding, I let my body relax next to Jack.

"Did you really get scared?" Jack said as he opened the closet door, holding his hand out for me to take as he helped me out.
