It's been two weeks since the boys have received the mysterious note from the unknown outsider. Everyone, except Wyatt, think the note is simply a prank.
"It's probably just a joke Wyatt, don't get too stressed about it." Adrian reassured Wyatt, who tensed about the note.
"The note was too serious to be a joke." Wyatt hesitantly said, in a croaky voice.
"Wyatt when you weren't here last year, we got a lot of notes similar to this. They just want to find out more, what exactly happened last year." Jacob tried to comfort Wyatt.
"Why didn't you guys tell me?" Wyatt mood suddenly changed from sad to angry.
"You were already under a lot of pressure, we didn't want to stress you out more." AJ came into the attic with soaking wet hair, after swim practise.
"Remember we all agreed that nothing would get into the way of our senior year, let's forget this stupid joke, and instead concentrate on having fun." Adrian reminded the boys, especially Wyatt.
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" AJ slyly grinned, however the rest of the boys stared at AJ blank.
"Gambling night?" AJ said with a straight face, shaking his head as no one responded.
"Alright, let's play." Jacob broke the silence, and walked towards the middle of the table.
"What really!" AJ said surprised face. It's been a long time since the boys have played together. The last time they played, they had one of the best nights of their lives.
"I'm going to beat you all!" Adrian had a huge grin that couldn't be wiped off.
"You think you can beat ME?" AJ laughed, pulling his chair in closer to the table.
"Shuffle the deck then, let's see who wins." Wyatt chipped in.
"Fifty dollars that Adrian will win." Jacob betted, whilst he fist-bumped Adrian.
"Hundred dollars that AJ will win." Wyatt confidently said and patted on AJ who was too excited to play the game.

"I lost more then fifty dollars on you! It's all your fault!" Jacob's head was buried in his hands in embarrassment.
"Look, I'm sorry I lost the game, but I didn't tell you to bet on me." Adrian flapped his hands around.
"I can't believe that you thought he would beat me, in my game." AJ shook his head.
Wyatt had burst out laughing "Did you guys forget that AJ is the champion at gambling, and nearly everyone at this school is in debt because of him? And now, you two are on that list!!"
"Shut up! I paid him already, so I'm practically not in debt." Jacob complained.
"Do you guys remember what happened yesterday, before you two passed out drunk?" AJ raised his eyebrows.
"Do we owe you more money?" Adrian asked curiously.
"Yeah, like 400 dollars more." AJ nodded his head while snickering.
"Liar, you guys are lying right?" Jacob squinted his eyes.
"You guys were so drunk, that you thought you guys were winning so you kept placing more bets, but actually you guys were losing so badly." Wyatt had burst into more laughter.
"It was too jokes!" AJ giggled.

"Do you think that this is a prank? I really do know all your secrets. I am going to humiliate all four of you. I don't want anything in return, I just want to destroy you all, because you think you are superior to everyone, but in fact you guys are worse than everyone."
