"What's going on ?"
I whispered, twisting the door handle desperately, in attempt to throw it open, but it was no use.
I gasped in terror, my heart beating quickly each second, not able to breathe for a moment.

This can't happen. Not right now.
"Adelle, is everything alright ?"
Barron asked in confusion as he took a gentle grip on my shoulder, in attempt to make me look at him.

I looked up to him, my eyes filled with tears.
"The stupid door is not budging.."
I choked out, crossing my arms near my chest, looking away.
He then twisted the door handle eagerly, to no avail.

I felt guilty for being mad at him. It was useless anyway, and I was being selfish. I hated being selfish.
As soon as he let go of the door, I hugged his waist tightly, trying not to let my tears stream.
"I'm sorry, Barron."

He flinched for a moment, shocked, but eventually hugged back, rubbing my back gently.
"It's okay, Goddess. I know you're having a hard time."
"But you'll miss your test."

I said sadly, pouting.
"I can always take it later, and I'll have a good excuse."
He smiled, and I knew he meant me. But I didn't complain.
We sat down on those comfortable armchairs, and started talking, trying to pass the time.

30 Minutes Later :

As I was growing more desperate to get out of the principal's office, I got a text.
Unknown number..
See what happens when you don't do what I told you to do ?

My expression turned angry as I scowled at my phone's screen. Barron squeezed my shoulder, trying to help me calm down, and I knew he was reading over my shoulder.
So you wanna play with fire, Pitbull ? You got it. But remember, nothing good ever comes out of that.

Pitbull.
I don't know why I typed that. But it was too late to delete the message, so I just sighed, squeezing Barron's comforting hand.
Pitbull.
What if Pitbull is the stalker too ?

After all, he wants revenge on us for firing him.
Could he be ?

I glanced at Barron, who was staring at me sadly.
"It's going to be fine."
He whispered, and leaned in. I leaned in too, and our lips collided in a deep passionate, comforting kiss.

It turned out to be a makeout session.

I don't know how much time passed, but when the door finally opened, the principal entered the room with a horrified expression on his face.
"I'm sorry, it was John playing a mean trick on you two. I punished him. You're allowed to leave if you want to do so."

I glanced at Barron, who nodded at the principal.
We turned to leave immediately.

I inhaled deeply as soon as we stepped outside.
"Wow. I didn't know locking a person in can be so mean."
I said, exasperated.
"Yeah. But we had a good time."
He replied, smiling at me.

I, of course, didn't know that it would be so bad messing with the hacker.
If I did, I would have never threatened him.

To Be Continued..
