The Four Musketeers

Chapter 2

My heart felt like it was going to burst from my chest as Max led me to an empty classroom. Whatever he was going to tell me couldn't be good and I had a feeling that karma was coming for me!

When we reach the classroom Max took a hold of my hand and guided me into the classroom before locking the door.( I never understood why classrooms had locks in the first place it's like begging the hormonal teenagers in the school to go and screw around) I sighed before turning to face Max who had a guilty expression on his face and asked " so , what's going on"

Max gulped " um, okay don't interrupt before I finish and let me start from the beginning " he said

I just nodded and gestured for him to continue.

" so you know after that night the police found my fingerprints on the gun and then accused for killing that asshole -"Max stated

But I cut him of" Max ! Cole was not an asshole he saved us -" I shouted

" the jackass set us up , he is the reason were in this mess in the first place so don't make excuses for him Zoe and shut the hell up so I can finish my story " Max interrupted

I just shrugged knowing he was half right and let him continue

" so anyways like I was saying I had to make a run for it because the gun apparently had been the weapon to kill at least three other people and the shit ass cops weren't going to believe us , i mean they through Mason in jail and he was the most innocent from all of us just because the was holding the knife ... Sorry I'm getting sidetracked . I had to leave town and Im sorry I couldn't come see you the night I left because the cops were at your house asking questions and I would have told Zayn to tell you but I couldn't look that piece of shit in the face without punching him. I still can't believe he ditched us and the dumass left the drugs in MY car and took of .

So anyways I had to run and for the last three years I've not only been running from the cops but the leader of the gang too and he kind of-"

"Wait I thought the leader was also killed I would know I'm the one that fucking killed him and what the fuck do you mean Zayn ditched us I know I passed out and woke up and Mason told me that Zayn ......" I whisper shouted at him.

" My God women just let me finish , so anyway the leaders kid took over and is out for blood our blood to be precise .

He knows that me, Mason , Zayn and some mystery girl ' which is you ' killed his dad . He just has to do a little bit more digging before finding out it was you and then proceeding to kill all of us so that why I'm back Zoe. To save our lives and kick some ass" Max concluded.

I sat silent for awhile processing all the information before bursting out laughing causing Max to frown in confusion .

Of course out of all people this is going to happen to me and If you think about it these situations only happen in movies. After I calmed down I gracefully got up and exited the room.

I didn't make it 4 steps outside the classroom before Max slammed me into the lockers and started yelling at me "what the fuck is wrong with you I just told you that your life is practically over and you just basically say ' whatever' "

" what do you want me to do , start bawling my eyes out and cower in fear from this apparent all mighty gang leader well news flash that's not me and as far as I'm concerned you don't even have a plan " I whispered back so the random stoner dudes roaming the hallway didn't hear.

" No on the contrary I have a brilliant plan , you just not going to like it " he said .

Before I could question him further the bell rang signaling lunch I sighed knowing we would have to talk about this later. As if thinking the same thing as me Max let go off me and mouthed ' later'

" after school we'll discuss this but for now let's eat " I said and then proceeded to drag him to the cafeteria .

After school Max and I walked home hand in hand like a real couple which brings me to wonder what the hell where we?

I know I still love him but ......

Once we reached my house I went to fetch us snacks while Max just strolled to my room like he owned the place but to fair he did spend half his childhood here.

I entered my room to see a shirtless Max lying on my bed examining one of my red lacy bras I'd forgot to put in the washing. I sighed before asking " Max is there a reason that your half naked on my bed examining my mums bras"

Max face turned into pure horror and he stared wiping his hands like he'd touched some kind of disease " eww, my eyes I can never look at your mum the same ! He exaggerated and started to make fake gagging noises

I couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing at Max who soon caught on and gave me a deadly glare before saying " not cool Zoe , I almost couldn't appreciate sexy lingerie anymore , but since it is actually yours ...." He wiggled his eye burrows in a suggesting manner.

I just continued to laugh at his idiocy , ahh how I've missed him. Remembering the reason he was here in the first place I sobered up and asked him the question I'd been dreding !

" so what's your brilliant plan Max?" I asked with all seriousness

Max shot me a cocky smirk like he was about to reveal some revelation before saying

" we're going to break Mason out of prison ..... and kidnap Zayn"

Well it looks like I'm not going to be going to detention after all!
