Revenge Plot

Chapter 8

I watch as the stranger passes me one more glance before he left.

I have never seen him before he must be new to town.

"Hey nerd?" Tristan says

"Yeah?" I reply

"We better get you home" Tristan says standing up.

I get up and we leave McDonalds and walk towards his car. The drive to my house was quiet but not in an awkward way. I was slowly falling asleep.

"Nerd wake up" Tristan shakes me

I mumble before opening my eyes to see, we have arrived at my house.

"Bye Trist" I say and walk towards the front door. I give him one more wave before I go inside.

Before I went to bed I decided to ask Tristan if we are allowed to tell anyone about the whole "revenge plot".

Me: Are we allowed to tell people?

Tristan: tell people what

Me: about this whole revenge thing

Tristan: who do you wanna tell?

Me: my friend Emily

Tristan: no

Me: why not?

Tristan: You never know who you can trust and you never know who is going to betray you in life

I didn't know what to say to Tristan's last text, so I just switched of my phone off. I tried to find a comfortable position but I just couldn't sleep. All I could think of was Tristan's text, "you never know who you can trust". Maybe he was right. I trusted Brent and look what happened. A few hours had passed.

I checked the time, it was 6 in the morning.

I might as well get up. I walked to my wardrobe and took out some black skinny jeans with a pastel pink hoodie.

"Alex!" I shout

"Come on sis, let's get you to school" he says

I quickly make my way to the car.

"Where were you last night?" He asks

"Went to McDonald's" I said

I felt comfortable telling my brother everything but I was not allowed to bring up Tristan because my brother would go insane if he found out that I went out with Tristan even after he asked me not too.

"With Emily?" He questions

"Yeah" I say

"Why didn't I get invited?" He jokes breaking the tension

"Maybe because I needed some girl time and I see you everyday" I say grinning

Alex was the one person that understood me. It hurt not being able to him about everything. We were inseparable and we still are it's just sometimes we don't agree.

"Just because you see me everyday, doesn't mean you can't invite me to eat out" he says

I laugh

"Well do you ever invite me out?" I joke

"Well that's because you are to underaged to go where I go" he says smirking

"Just one more month than I am eighteen" I say
