Bullied By Team Crafted 2!

Chapter Twenty (The Risks We Take For Friendship...)

Third Person (POV)

The tense aura radiating off of the sealed envelope was enough to give shortness of breathe. The soft wax seal could be broken with the single swipe of a finger under the envelope's flap, but something about the mysterious contents in it, kept the letter sealed.

Preston slowly ran his finger over the seal, taking in every detail of the symbol carved in the wax, stalling for the fact he was scared to read what was inside.

Our course he wasn't alone, the tension seemed to spread like a disease as Jerome, Lachlan, Vikk, Rob, Adam, Ty, Hannah, Kyaa, Tasha, Ashley, Karson, Mitch found themselves sacred of the small envelope.

The sender of the letter, unknown, the contents the same. The mystery of it all sent chills down their spines.

"Someone has to open it."

Everyone suddenly looked away from the letter, free from their tense trance, as Preston uttered those words.

"Not it!" Jerome yelled, dropping the letter out of his hands, causing Preston to once again shoot him a sharp glare.

It was hard enough to be in the same room with Jerome without wanting to pick a fight, so him acting like a child isn't going to help.

In a matter of seconds, everyone at the circle table had yelled their "Not it", leaving Preston the dirty deed of opening the letter.

"Y'all are all acting like little children!" He scoffed, rolling his eyes, before picking up his letter. Once again, the wax seal added tension in the air, but Preston quickly busted the letter open with the finger, the envelope accidentally tearing in the process.

The room was silent besides the slight crunch sound of the paper as Preston pulled out a folded piece of paper from the letter.

He looked up at the group of people around the table, refusing to unfold the letter until the rest of the envelopes were open.

One by one, everyone opened their letter, each pulling out one piece of paper, but all different colors.

Preston's fire colors, Jerome's brown, Adam's yellow, Kyaa's pink, Karson's red, Ty's green, Mitch's black and red, Hannah's orange, and so on.

The second Preston began to read the letter out loud the tension grew more as they began to suspect the author of the letter.

By now I'm sure you have suspicions on who lead you all here, despite tension and hatred lingering between us few. If you are all here, I applaud you, I figured one of y'all would've bailed when you saw who all was in the room with you. Preston and Jerome, Ashley and Adam, Karson and Jerome, etc.

I can practically feel the tension while writing this, so I'll cut to the chase. As you'll notice, someone isn't here and that person you can probably tell is me. I have a surprise for y'all, that you probably don't want to refuse.

Meet me at 67 Parkway Place, 5:00 on tomorrow.

Suddenly everyone looked up in confusion. "Mine says a different address." Mitch said, pushing his letter to the center of the table.

His read to meet at 54 Talking Leaves Court at the same time tomorrow.

Slowly everyone placed down their letters only to see, almost all of them had different addresses.

The only people in groups or pairs were Ty and Adam, Vikk and Kyaa, and Jerome and Karson.

Everyone looked at each other one last time, unsure of wether or no to follow this crazy request.

"What is she planning..." Preston thought to himself stunned as everyone remained quite.

Finally Preston folded his letter back up and shoved it in his hoodie pocket, before standing up.

"I don't know about you guys, but I don't have anything to lose." He said, everyone now understanding what he was implying.

"Might be fun." Adam smiled as Ty and him folded their letters and held onto them.

Soon almost everyone had come to an agreement to go, until it was just Jerome sitting. He looked sorrowful, as everyone stared at him.

"What's the point, I already know she's mad at me." He scoffed, leaning back into his chair.

Preston couldn't help but roll his eyes, gritting his teeth to contain his annoyance. "So get up, go, and do something about it you pleb!"

Lachlan and Rob couldn't help but snicker at Preston's serious use of the word pleb.

Vikk almost laughed before Kyaa shot daggers at him with her eyes.

Jerome sighed with defeat and finally grabbed his letter and crumpled it in his pocket. "Fine."

The once tense air was finally at ease as everyone had finally come to the agreement and got ready to left.

Misty's plan was already working, and it was only the beginning...

Misty (POV)

I had originally planned on calling Preston for help with my plan, but it wasn't until after school my genius plan had come to me.

Okay, I wouldn't say genius, but it's pretty great.

My fingers and forearms began to become sore as my fingers furiously poked at my computers keys, codes shooting out left and right on the screen.

It had come to the conclusion that a decision had to be made. Accidentally I had been using these two as pawns, playing both of them in a way I had never intended to, but as I coded each and every program, the decision was easy when I approached the last two.

Preston and Jerome...

It was time to pick, it was hard but I knew something would push me in the right direction soon.

Now the only step left, is hoping all goes to plan, and then maybe then I'll finally grant myself the high school life I've always wanted.

My friends brought together, even Ashley...

(A/N: READ THIS!! The book is coming to an end in the next chapter or two and I'm giving you guys a chance to choose who Misty ends up with. I know exactly what will happen next chapter for whatever guy is chosen, so if enough people comment down below the guy they want ~Jerome or Preston~ that's who I'll chose. Also, as you can tell, this book was a struggle for me to update. I'm not good with sequels and often lose inspiration so it took me awhile to update at some points. This leaves the question, what do you want now! I highly doubt I'd be able to write a third book if it was even wanted, so I have a question. Do you want a new Bullied series or for it to end. What I mean is, I can easily write a new series of Bullied books with a new main character and new YouTubers you recommend! Basically, you can either comment or private message me, but it would mean the world if you voted for a guy and suggest to me a book you want to see or if you're interested in a new Bullied series with different YouTubers!! I've loved writing this so far, I hope you enjoy the next few chapter, I love you all! Thanks for reading this far, <3 Isabella aka Majestic)
