Make Up My Mind

Part 16

That next Monday.....

Today was the first day in like 2-3 weeks that we were all going back to school. With all that has been going on, we've been on independent study and not showing up to school. We knew people were gonna talk about us whether we were there or not. We all decided we would meet at the front of the school and walk in together. It felt weird being back at the school. Once everyone arrived, we met by the front gate and just stared at the inside of the school. 

Jonah: You guys ready?

Anna: Nope 

Mia: Not one bit 

Jack: But at least we got each other 

Sydnie: I will preach to that 

Ava: Let's go 

Daniel: Now..

Zach: Or... 

Corbyn: Never.. 

We all walk in and immediately we all get head turns. We saw multiple dirty looks and people whispering. We all knew it was going to happen but it seemed worse than what we thought it was going to be. The bell rang for first period and we all go our parted ways. 

Mia: See you guys at lunch

Corbyn: I won't be at lunch.. gotta drop off Christina at the airport so she can go home 

Ashley: She can go on a plane in her condition?

Corbyn: Doctor said she can

Ashley: But she could have a chance for miscarriage 

Daniel: Well then let's hope that doesn't happen. Mia, let's get to class

Mia: Bye guys 

Everyone: Bye 

We head to our first period and still everyone was giving dirty looks. I felt like everyone in this whole school knew and I think they did. But they don't know the whole story like we all do. This one kid in mine and Daniel's math class named Joshua kept laughing at us. I was getting so annoyed of him.. I had to do something. 

Mia: Hey Joshua, you got a problem?

Joshua: Is it true what they say

Mia: And what is it that they say is true 

Joshua: That you made Daniel shoot that innocent guy?

Daniel: Hey man look.. she didn't pay me to do anything. That guy wasn't innocent. He had a mental illness that they still proving is true. So get your information straight before you make assumptions

Joshua: I know the full story. Front to cover 

Mia: What do you mean by that?

Joshua: My dad is Parker and the White's are my cousins... on my mom's side 

Daniel: So you know Kaiya 

Joshua: Known her my whole life 

Daniel: You know she beat up Zach right? Left him alone in a abandoned warehouse

Joshua: That's Kaiya for you 

Mia: Is she also messed up?

Joshua: She's perfectly fine 

Mia: Wanna double check? You can say that about Connor but file proves he was sick 

Joshua: You watch what you say young missy 

Daniel: Or what?

Joshua: You really wanna find out 

Daniel: Trust me, you won't. You have to keep your star quarterback reputation. Now tell me again Joshua.. how many girls at this school that you slept with.... almost 15?

Joshua: Nah, I'm not like that 

Daniel: According to my sister you are. Don't ever hit on her again. Don't even try to hook up with her. She'll reject you 

Joshua: Bet she won't 

Mia: Trust me she will

Joshua finally ends the conversation and rolls his eyes. The bell rings and we finish the classes all the way up to lunch. We all sit at our same table with these gloomy faces. 

Zach: So... how was class 

Sydnie: Crap. You wouldn't believe all the hate notes I got 

Ava: Same 

Ashley: I wish we never came back 

Mia: First period was interesting 

Jack: What do you mean?

Daniel: Well... star quarterback Joshua is Parker's son--

Mia: And Kaiya's cousin 

Zach: WHAT?!

Mia: Yeah....

Jonah: Man.. plot twist 

Anna: I could see it. They are both crazy out of their damn minds 

Mia: You don't have to say that twice 

Daniel: It's so true 

Jonah: That means Joshua can tell fake things to his dad and he would believe it 

Zach: Yeah. Not good 

Ashley: We know that real and what's fake. That's all that matters 

Sydnie: Yeah, honestly would rather be studying at home then here 

Ava: Wait... is Joshua's family all crazy in the head

Jonah: I guess so 

?: I see your talking about my family

We all hear a familiar voice and we all turn around 

Zach: KAIYA?!
