Later on at lunch
After the longest hours of boredom, it sort of felt lonely being the only one in the group being in grade twelve, but now there's me, Rhett, Turquoise, Zequiel.
Emily WAS in the same class as Forest mostly, grade eleven,
Dawson was in the same grade, but different classes, him and Forest are only in ONE class together, Biology class, they're lab partners.
And Haley's the youngest in our so called group, grade ten, she always wanted to be in the same grade as the others, that's something that she hated, that she was younger.
"So, did you guys hear about cherry soda?" Dawson asks the triplets,
"Yeah, that's crazy what happened there.."
Rhett says shaking his head, taking a stab into his macaroni and cheese with his fork.
I stop, looking down into my salad...the tomatos make me want to puke...
It's red and chunky, maybe even juicy if I take a bite, it makes me think of the chunks that were in that soda...
The talk of cherry soda made me shiver, and made me focus on very small things, like the tomatoes in my salad, and as if the talk of it just made me not want to hear it...which just sorta sounded like it trailed off I guess, seems crazy.
"Hey you guys...this sounds crazy, but ..
Do you guys want to try some?"
Turquoise pulls out a big bottle of cherry soda, focusing on the big shiny bottle, with the skull on the label, it sorta hypnotizes me..
Without thinking of what I'm doing, I jump across the table and smash the Bottle in Turquoises' hand,
"What the hell dude?!" Turquoise shouts
"Are you suicidal? That thing kills!" I argue,
Now that the bottles broken on the cafeteria floor, everyone's looking at us I notice, it kinda brought their attention to US.
"Actually, if you don't know..!" Turquoise gets up, rolling her sleeve down revealing scars on her wrist...
"O-oh" i stutter, getting off the table,
Rhett and Zequiel get up as they watch their sister run off in humiliation of what I did... driving her to reveal something that I didn't mean so intentional.
Forest watches his sister as well, but doesn't bother getting up because he's so sensitive towards this sort of stuff...drama...
I didn't mean to make any of the triplets uncomfortable or anything...I didn't even mean to..forget it.
