The Gypsy's Bad Boy

Chapter 20

After brainstorming early Sunday morning trying to come up with ideas and none of them seemed to sit well with any of us besides the person that suggested it, we decided it was best to go with my idea if we don't acknowledge the fact that Ryan is a threat maybe he'll come at us face-to-face instead of having people monitor my every move or he'll leave us alone in peace. I know the former is bound to happen rather than the latter but I can dream can't I?

I woke up on Monday feeling like I owned the world which is quite contrary to the day before but something about today seemed to brighten my mood. Maybe it's the fact that I've made a decision to take whatever comes my way as it is.

I know it sounds like giving up but what can I do, report to the police? Yeah like that'd fish Ryan out from wherever he's hiding even though I wouldn't be shocked if it was in a nut house I mean he belonged there.

As soon as I stepped into the school and more than twenty eyes landed on me the sunshine I was carrying around earlier dissipated and was replaced my thunder and blackness.

At first I wondered what caused the sudden attention it's not like I was the queen of England or Obama. I even turned to around to see if someone of higher importance than I was stood behind me only to find students trying their best not to bump into me although I was standing at the entrance. Reality dawned when I saw two girls turn to each other talking in hushed voices glancing at me once I watched their lips move and read the 'Alex'.

I guess people are still talking about the whole cheating scandal, what is it with people and not minding their own businesses I thought rolling my eyes as I walked to my locker.

"So how was weekend with the babysitter, since you're here and he isn't I'm guessing you already murdered him?" Alicia questioned appearing at my side suddenly I almost jumped.

"Need help disposing the body?" shiv appeared on my other side.

"Where did you guys come from? You almost scared me"

"So did you kill him yet or is he tied somewhere in your basement?"

I rolled my eyes at shiv dramatic statement before replying "no I didn't kill him besides he's not half bad, he does his job quite well".

"Really? can I have him because my parents are leaving for the weekend and I wouldn't mind a hottie like Alex babysitting me" Siobhan said her voice dreamy I could tell she was imagining what would happen which only made me roll my eyes again.

"You can keep dreaming Siobhan he didn't find you hot then I'm sure he still doesn't" Alicia said rather harshly and Siobhan just scowled at her.

"What do you mean by saying he didn't find her 'hot then'? What happened between the three of you?" This wasn't the first time Alicia had made such remark concerning whatever it was that happened between the three of them. Although I'd never given it much thought this just made me all the more curious.

They exchanged looks before replying then Siobhan's eyes widened then narrowed. "Babysitter alert" she said then dragged Alicia by the arm before walking briskly away. I was still staring at their backs when a brown paper bag clouded my vision.

"You forgot your lunch" the wielder of the bag said.

"I have enough money to buy myself lunch" I replied then turned to open my locker. After getting what I needed from it I turned to find him leaning against the locker beside mine.

"What happened between you, Ali and shiv?"

"What?" he asked sounding surprise.

"Alicia said something about you not finding Siobhan hot then"
