"That's enough. Detention, both of you. Tonight after school."

"BUT-" Oddly, we were synchronized.

"No buts."

And just when I thought today was going to be okay for once.

--------

So it's the last day of school, I have detention and nothing to do in it. A whole two hours in here with nothing to do. I finished my book yesterday so that rules out the option of reading.

"Two hours, no talking."

Plus, I get to spend my next two long and quiet hours with my least favorite teacher. Of course.

Mught as well get some of my after school nap in.

--------

"Catherine, Catherine.. detention is over."

"Uhh, let me sleep."

"No, you have to get up."

"Fine."

What the heck. Where am I? And how did I get here? Time for some questioning.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Max."

"Where are we? And how did I get here?"

"I can't let you know where we are, but how you got here? I, uh, kinda, kidnapped you."

WHAT. THAT BOY IS GOING TO GET IT. IF ONLY I COULD GET UNTIED- wait, why did I not noticed I was tied up before?

I guess he seemed like he resented kidnapping me. I'd go a little easier on him.

"You are so getting it when I get untied."

"Hey, they forced me to do it.."

Hm, so that's why he seemed so resentful.

"Who is they?"

"I'm not quite sure, but they are threatening to kill my whole family if I don't do what they ask."

"What'd they ask you to do?"

"You don't want to know."

"Tell me."

"You really-"

I cut him off. "TELL ME," I said through clenched teeth.

"Okay, but you asked."

Silence. He looked as if he were still debating telling me or not.

"Go on."

"They, uh, wanted me to kidnap you and, hm, how do I say this, kill everyone in the school at the time because they were witnesses." He spit the last half out, not wanting to say it.

"YOU KILLED EVERYONE?!"

"Yeah," he said it shamefully.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU."

I never thought I'd say that. I hated everyone at that stupid school. They always picked on me.

"I am barely living with myself right now. ai know it was stupid. I should've gone to the police, but AH I'M SO STUPID. YOU SHOULDN'T BE HERE. YOU SHOULD BE LIVING YOUR LIFE AND-". I couldn't hear the rest. He was crying like a baby and barely muttering words. I kinda feel bad for him.

Knock knock knock.

Max stopped crying for a moment and looked at the door with terror I never thought was possible. Then, he looked at me with sorry eyes.

"Oh god, they're here. I'm so sorry, so so sorry."
