Death's Double Trio

Chapter 19

~Final class~
Sapphire’s Perspective

        “And that leaves the answer, seven pi over four.” ‘Come on! One more minute. Ring already!’

Coleen’s Perspective

        “Using that answer, we can find the coordinates.” ‘Seriously! Why won't you ring?’

Caroline's Perspective

        “With those coordinates, we find the angle.” ‘Did the bell ring and I just didn't hear it?’

Masky’s Perspective

        “Does everyone understand how to work the problem?” ‘Longest. Minute. Ever!’

3rd Person Perspective

        The final bell rings, releasing the students, and the four students waiting for that moment jump out of their seats. Running out of the room and to their lockers, they pack their things for the weekend and meet out in front of the school.
        “Freedom!” Caroline and Coleen yell together.
        “Finally!” Sapphire yells. All that is heard from Masky is laughter. Sapphire turns toward him.
        “Come on! You gotta yell something. It's Halloween!” He thinks about it for a moment.
        “Fine.” He answers.
        “Yes!” She screams to herself.
        “On one condition.”
        “Dang it! Fine! You win. Just yell something Timothy.” He smirks at her. He takes a big breath.
        “Sapphire is my-“ She covers his mouth.
        “Anything but that, I beg of you.” She uncovers his mouth and he leans closer to her ear, whispering something the other two couldn't hear. She blushes a light pink and hits him on the arm.
        “Or that! Geez, what's gotten into you today?” He picks her up bridal style. He leans closer to her ear again.
       
Sapphire’s Perspective

        “Maybe you did.” I hit him in the chest. All the damage I can do while in his arms.
        “Put me down Tim!”
        “Nope.”
        “Timothy, put me down!” He starts walking down the steps.
        “Not this time doll.” I start wriggling around in his arms. I almost get out of arms when he throws me over his shoulder.
        “Tim!”
        “Yes dear?”
        “Don't you ‘dear’ me, you sneaky little camera boy. Put me down! Guys help!”
        “Not a chance.” They say together. I sigh.
        “So you're gonna carry me all the way to my house?”
        “Yep.”
        “Could you at least let it be a piggyback ride so the blood doesn't go to my head?” He puts me down and I jump on his back, put my head on his shoulder.
        “Thank you. No offense, but I was getting tired of looking at your butt.”
        “Why were you looking in the first place?” Coleen asks.
        “Well, it's not like I really had a choice.” Tim starts laughing.
        “What are you laughing about? I'm still peeved at you for videoing me in the shower at school.”
        “What?! I never did that!”
        “Yeah right. Who else had access to your camera?” He thinks for a moment. I hear him growl.
        “I know exactly who, and I'm gonna go kick his butt right after I drop you off.”
        “Well do you want to stop walking now? We're here.” He stops and puts me down.
        “I'll be back in about an hour to help set up. In the meantime, Kara I have a feeling you might want to give this guy a beat down too. Wanna come along?” Caroline’s eyebrows furrow together.
        “If it's who I think it is, definitely. I've still gotta get a picture back from that idiot. Grab my hand, I'll get us there faster.” Coleen and I watch them leave then go inside. I turn to Coleen.
        “Mix table?” I nod. She, Peryn, Leslie, and Lucy head to the basement. I turn to Morrigan.
        “You get the streamers, I'll get the costumes.” She heads to the hallway closet and I go up to the attic. I head straight to the back and grab the clothing rack filled with costumes. I transport it to the living room then grab a box of masks. I walk back into the living room to see everyone ready to start.
        “Alright everyone, let's begin with the checklist. Mix table is in place?” I ask.
        “Check.” Peryn answers.
        “Cake ordered?”
        “Two days ago. It'll be here in half an hour.” Coleen says.
        “Costumes and masks out? Check. Who's on snack duty?”
        “That'd be me.” Lucy runs into the kitchen.
        “And refreshments?”
        “That's me!” Morrigan runs to the store.
        “Who's on streamers?”
        “We are.” Coleen and Peryn say.
        “That leaves music and decorations.”
        “I'll take decorations. No offense Blue, but stick with music.” Leslie mentions.
        “Compared to you in Art, I'll take that as a compliment.” Leslie starts on the décor and I head into the basement. I open up a safe in the back and grab my records, looking through them.
        “Let's see. People will want diversity so…all of them it is.” I close the safe and head back to the living room with the whole box. ‘Let's start with a track to keep us all in the mood.’ I dig out a Skillet record and set it up on the mix table. I click play and Monster comes on. ‘Perfect.’
        “Who needs help? Coleen? Peryn?” They shake their heads.
        “All done here.” Lucy says, putting the snacks on a table and on the bar.
        “I'm back!” Morrigan answers, with an armful of two liter sodas. The doorbell rings.
        “Cake’s here!” Answers Coleen.
        “Decorations are done.” Leslie mentions, covered in paint.
        “Alright, that's everything. Leslie and Lucy, head for the showers, Peryn and Coleen, pick the costumes, Morrigan and I will pick the masks. Let's get going everyone.”
