Redwood High: Rich Boy Chronicles 1

Chapter 25

CARSONS POV

" That was the stupidest movie I've ever watched." Indigo states as we finish Good Burger, I turn to her, my eyes wide.

" Your crazy, Wilson." I state as my phone rings. 

" Noah? What's up?" I ask as I heard loud music in the background. He inhales sharply.

" Alex, don't- oh god. Uh, Carson?" I hear from the other end, my eyebrows pulled together.

" Yeah?"

" Me and Alex came to this dude's party, and I told him not to drink, but he did, and I was wondering if you could come get us, since I can't really drive yet?" I groan as I run a hand through my hair.

" I'll be there. Text me the address." I hang up and turn to Indigo. 

" I'm going to kill Alex." I mutter as I get off the couch, grabbing my keys. She stands up and speeds over to me, putting a hand on my shoulder.

" We got to go get Alex from a party now, yes I'm thrilled to go pick up my 14 year old brother from a party." I ramble and she covers my mouth with her hand.

" Vos, I'm driving." She snatches my keys from my hand and opens the door, holding it for me. I hesitate to walk out, before getting in the passenger side of my car. Indigo starts the car before driving off.

When we get to the designated address, I quickly get out of the car, Indigo running after me. When I open the door to the house, I turn to Indigo. She is giving me a weird look. 

" Vos, you gotta chill." She says while her eyes scan the room. I scoff and look around for Noah. When I see him with his arms wrapped around Alex, trying to keep him still, I angrily walk over. When Noah sees me, he lets go of Alex, who is looking at the ceiling.

" What the hell is going on?" I yell as Alex's eyes turn to me. 

" We're just chilling." He laughs as he stands up. When he starts to walk toward me, he trips over god knows what and falls flat on his face.

" We're leaving, get the hell up." Noah suddenly says, grabbing his hand and pulling him up. Alex groans as he stands back in his feet.

"'I've gotta go say bye to Austin!" He points to a blonde haired boy with a red solo cup in his hand. I cross my arms.

"We are going right now." I state firmly and he pouts as Noah ushers him out the door. When I look over at Indigo, she's standing my by side with an unamused face. I lift a brow.

" What's up, Wilson?" I question and she turns to me.

" You need to talk to him, he's obviously struggling." She tells me as me walk outside, Noah trying to put Alex in my car. 

" He is?" I ask, my eyebrows pulled together. She scoffs, her arms crossed.

"Carson, let me tell you something. My dad is an alcoholic. Your 14 year old brother going out and drinking is really going to mess him up, long term. If you don't talk to him, he might think it's ok. The more he will drink, the higher tolerance he will have. Soon enough, you'll have an alcoholic brother who brings down his kids and is constantly-"

" Wilson! Your rambling." I yell as she stops, breathing heavily.

" Sorry I guess, it's not the best-" 

"Hey, it's all good. You don't need to explain." I interrupt yet again. When she wraps her arms around my waist, I stumbles backward in shock. After a second, I wrap my arms around her short frame. 

" We should go." She motions to my car where Noah and Alex sit. 

Agreed.

SAMS POV

" See you on Friday." Willow smiles, holding my hand. 

" For sure." I nod, bending down to kiss her before walking toward the door, turning to smile at her. When I start driving toward the school., my car alerts me that Carson is calling, so I answer.

" Hey." I greet as I stop at a red light. " Whats up?"

" Where are you?" He asks, sounding tired. I cough.

" On my way to school now, I just left... therapy?" I respond as I pull into the parking lot.

" Sam, you can't sleep at Willows every damn night, you know." He starts as I roll my eyes. 

" Yeah whatever, I'll be in class soon." I say as I get out of my car, walking into the large building. Walking down the silent hallway, I open the door to my 1st period class, the teacher immediately turning her attention to me.

" Samuel Green, late again?" She shakes her head and I walk to my seat with my head lowered. 

" Sorry Ma'am, family matters." I say as I slide in next to Carson and Indigo. She turns to me.

" Hey Blondie." She ruffles my, yes, blonde hair. Shooting her a bright smile, I pull out my notebook, turning to 'listen' to the lecture. I'm almost immediately distracted when my phone vibrates against the wooden chair.

Willow: You left your school tie, stupid😘

Looking down, I realize I am indeed missing it. 

Sam: whoops. Guess I'll have to come get it🤭

Then, my phone is snatched by Daniel. 

" Your going to get in even more trouble, just pay attention." He orders and I sigh before looking at the teacher.

Boo.

;;;
