~~Jamie's POV~~
It's been two weeks since the club started. Alex has been gone for 3 days. Mason and I have started to worry. Speak of the angel. Mason starts to walk over to me. He's holding something...
"Hey Yellow" He uses my club name, "Hi Pink!" I say cheerfully. "Look what I gottt" He grins brightly and holds up the packet of yellow and white paper. It reads Student Information "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" I screech loudly. A few- actually let's be honest a lot of kids look at me with either confusion or disgust. Mostly the latter. I move closer to Pink, just slightly, hardly noticeable. I look up at him. He's frowning and glaring at them all. "Don't mind them" I just whisper quietly. "But-" He starts. " You found it?" I cut him off, changing the topic. He nods and hands it to me. I start to flip through it till I get to Alex Cindernick. I look for the address. I look up at Mason. He's looking back at me, He grins and asks. "You feel like skipping?" "B-but we couldn't..." I complain. "Isn't this more important?" He asks. I just nod. He then grabs my arm and tugs me around the corner and breaks off at a sprint. It takes all my energy to keep up by the time we are a block away, I'm already panting and I have to stop. "WHEN DID YOU GET SO SWIFT!" He laughs at my pun. I grin. "C'mon we can walk the rest of the way, It's only a few blocks."
~~Mason's POV~~
I can't believe I'm asking Jamie to skip class. Yes, out of all the things I could've said. But hey, I care for her! She's just too pure to be doing this. But then again like I said.. This is more important. Isn't it? Yeah...I think it is... Well It's too late to back out now... maybe we'll be back by lunch? Anyways we are almost there. We arrive at a red-brown brick apartment building. I look at Jamie. She doesn't meet my eyes and the guilt grows stronger. I raise my head and start to walk towards it. I know she follows, I hear her footsteps behind me. I enter the main area. I ask where Alex's room is. 212. The adult I asked looks at me like I'm covered in blood, I'm not wearing any clothes, or like i'm holding a knife to her throat, And she can't decide which. Eventually she murmurs, "2nd floor, to the right". I race to the stairs pulling Jamie along with me. I reach Alex's place without a gasp for breath. Unlike Jamie who is bent over, sucking in air. I smirk. "You should join me on the track sometime" I laugh. "Are-...you...asking-..me... out?" She asks taking gulps of air in between words. I blush. Would she like it if I said yes? But what it I do and she hates me for it? AUGH!! I say the only reasonable..or kinda reasonable answer. " Would you like it to be?" I smirk and she laughs. "Maybee. We'll talk later" I blush harder. And she knocks on the door. We wait a few second until a sandy colored haired kid with his thumb in his mouth opens the door to the utter chaos that we can glimpse inside. "Wha-wha what da ya want?" I bend down meeting his eyes on the same level. "What's your name?" I ask. He hesitates then answers "Duh-Dustin Cindernick. Who iz u?". "Im Mason, and this is Jamie. We are here to talk Alex." He frowns and shouts backwards into the room. " Alexander!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!". Jamie mutters, "Hamilton" I snicker and after waiting a bit Alex shows up at the door. I almost don't recognize him. He's wearing an apron with his hair pulled back.With a toddler about 2 years old bouncing on his hip. Jamie squeals, exited. Man, that girl can get worked up about anything! Well, almost anything. "Oh hey guys" He reaches down and turtles Dustin's hair and asks him "Why don't you go play with Paulene and Lila?" He looks like he's about to argue but thinks better of it and walks away. Immediately after he leaves, Jamie asks, "Who is this cutie? Can I hold them? How old are they?" Alex seems amused by the questions. "This is Ami, My younger sister. She turned 2 about 3 weeks ago, and uh maybe not... She was just going down for a nap when you guys came." Jamie gasps. "Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry! Do you want us to leave?" Alex chuckles. "Nah, nah. It's all good. She was never gonna sleep anyways. Too hyper. Aren't you, Ami?" She just giggles and plays with the apron strings.
"Do you guys want to come in? It's a bit of a mess but.." "Yes, absolutely, yes!" He opens the door and I follow Jamie inside.
Hope YOU ALLLLLLL FRICKING THE FRISK ENJOYED
