We all had ordered our drinks, on the menu it looked as if it was being delivered to us in Glass Skull Bottles,

Which makes me wonder..
What's up with the skull?

The shape of the bottles and the color of the drink is somewhat the same shade of color as the tank full of red water at the Shell's...the bloody water..
The color of the carbonated water with mix of sodium...the Soda was Dark red

And it had odd little chunks of stuff in it...and it looked so bubbly..
Suspicious or not, it seems weird.

I guess Haley can't handle the friend zone too much longer, she leans in towards Forest and kisses him on the cheek, Dawson's jaw dropped as we all went silent, Forest immediately got up and left the booth we're sitting in, "Haley, will you...come outside with me for a minute? I have to talk to you."

Well that escalated quickly.

I get up after Haley and sorta walk outside to follow them but without them knowing, I stand behind them but hiding myself behind the trash can,

"Listen." Forest begins,
"I now realize what you've been doing."

"W-what do you mean? Forest I'm so sorryipanicked—"

"No." Forest shot back, "your in love with me, the rumors were true"

Wow, I guess he DID hear the rumors..

"But.." Haley's voice breaks as if shes about to cry,

"I can't with love..." Forest says

"That's the thing, WHY!?, Is it because you don't like me? You can't stand me? What's the matter-- are you...gay?"
Haley asks, her voice sorta rises,

"No!" Forest argues, "I......can't... because...if I was to love someone...fall in love...I'd...I would hurt them.."

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

It went silent for a moment, then I hear sobbing, I can't tell if it's Forest or Haley but whichever's which, it's sorta scary, I can't handle hearing someone cry,

Now I can hear its Forest who is crying,

"At my old school...I let a girl into my arms...and I...bit her...her neck bled so much...I..I didn't...mean to...it's just..."
Forest sniffles,

"Forest...jeez...I didn't think...I'm so sorry..." Haley says,

"Now can you see that I only do this just to protect you?" Forest sounds like he's stopped crying,

I look over the trash can to see that Forest gets closer to Haley, as they both lean in,

I can't see this, I get up behind the trash can, they both cut the lovey dovey bullshit, as they look at me in shock,

"Brainy!" Haley shouts,

"I was missing 10 bucks! Chill out! I was just looking around the trash can! I didn't know you guys were going to start making out! Jesus!" I lie

"How much did you hear, nosey?" Forests questions

"Nothing. I dunno what your talking about..!" I lie AGAIN,

"Tell the truth, Pinocchio" Forest folds his arms,

"....you bit a girl." I say
