Chapter 4

Enjoy!!!

I was sitting in one of the hospital chairs, my nerves on the very edge. I couldn't stand having to wait soo long, and the smell of antiseptic wasnt helping. I looked around the hospital trying to think of something to do, my legs doing a little dance as i sat in the uncomfortable chair. I sighed and rubbed my face trying to calm myself down. I needed to get up and do something even if for a second, the people around me looked to mournful to talk to so I didnt even attempt. Finally I decided to get up and walk around. My legs felt jittery and jello-y but anything was better than sitting. I walked around for about 5 minutes, turning at different hallways and corners before I found myself at what looked to be a small cafeteria. I decided to get some coffee knowing very well that it would only make my nervousness even worse, but I didnt care I needed to wast some time and this seemed like a good option. I poured some coffee in a cup and added cream and sugar. The coffee was cold and gross but I still drank it. I headed back to the waiting area, trying to retrace my steps but failing. I ended up down a corridor with double doors that said 'DO NOT ENTER. STAFF ONLY'. So i turned around, only to find myself taking another wrong turn. I stomped my foot and let out a aggravated huff, like a child throwning a tantrum when they didnt get what they wanted. I ran a hand through my hair and looked around. After some time of wandering I found my way back and sat in a seat.

It'd been a half hour since we got here and I was getting tired. I shifted in my seat so I was siting sideways in it, then I curled my legs underneath me and rested my head on the chair, closing my eyes for a minute or two.

The next thing I knew was I was being shaken awake by someone, their voice familiar. Then it all came rushing back to me. Spilling food.... Zack..... gansey... the fight.... hospital. I looked up at Zack, a smirk visible on his face. His hand was on my shoulder and he was crouched in front of my. I lifted up my head and rubbed my eyes. I looked over at his smirking face, and scowled, smacking his hand away.

"what time is it?"

"2:45"

"WHAT?!!" I shrieked a little too loud.

"we have to get to school NOW!!" I shouted at him.

"Calm down, nobody is missing you don't worry" he said with a chuckle, "besides, I had my mom call the school and tell them where we are." he said as if it was that simple.

"I. Have. DETENTION." I told him slowly, not knowing if he was processing what I was saying.

"Oh, wait you? detention? Never thought that would happen. What did you do?" I scowled at him and looked down at my hands.

"I was late to school" I muttered

"Really, thats it? The first time you get detention and its because youre late? Thats dumb."

"How do you know its my first time getting detention?" I asked as a smirk formed on his face.

"Trust me, im sure everyone knows that. Youre the goody-two-shoes of the school. Thats how I know."

I scowled, "I am not!"

"Dont worry, I wont judge. Besides I have detention today too." He said flashing me a cheeky smile.

At that remark I got a little dizzy. Zack + Gansey in the same room? Someone might not be leaving that room alive. I tried not to show my nervousness.

"Soo what did the doctor say?" I asked trying to change the subject.

"What this?" he gestured to the gauze on his forehead. "Its nothing, I'll be fine."

"Ok lets go than." I pulled myself out of the chair and stumbled, only to be caught by Zack. One hand on my shoulder and the other around my wrist. I looked up at him, and took a step back his hands falling back to his side. I straightened up and fixed my clothes.

"uhh thanks," i said nervously, "we shoud get going though" Turning around and walking back the way we came in.

I didnt know if he was following me, but I didnt really care I just wanted to get out. I unlocked his car and got in the drivers seat.

"Umm what are you doing?" he asked giving me a weird look.

"Getting ready to drive, what does it look like im doing? Get in the car." I snapped. This is ridiculous, by the time I get to school I'll only have like 2 minutes of detention. Which in return will have me end up with another detetion.

"Fine, just dont ruin my car" he said, getting into the passenger seat.

"Whatever"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I rushed out of his car and sprinted to the school. Please dont give me another detention. Please dont give me another detention. Pleaseee.

I pushed into the detention room. At first I only noticed the snoring teacher in the back of the room, my eyes wandered around the room till they landed on the only person sitting there: Gansey. When he saw me he smiled. I was about to return the smile when I felt a warm breath creep up my neck. The voice that followed was not one that I was excited to hear.

"What are you waiting for? Afraid of getting in a little trouble?" I could feel the smirk on his face.

"Could you not breathe down my neck?" I replied pushing into the room.

I watched the 2 boys' expressions change as they realized what they were put up to.

"Oh god, not him again"
