It was Monday and I was excited yet nervous to enter Waterloo Road. Excited to see Hector, nervous to see Mr. Lowsley and Barry- the only two people who know about our relationship.
I was desperately hoping Barry would've forgotten about this whole money thing but this is Barry Barry. Of course anything related to money will never slip his mind.
Hector and I were casually talking in the school car park, trying to act natural but then I heard footsteps behind me and Hector went pale when he saw who it was.
"You haven't forgotten about our little deal, have you?" He asked.
Of course, it was Barry.
"Shouldn't you be getting to class now, Barry?" Hector asked, completely ignoring his question.
"Shouldn't you as well then, Gabriella?" Barry smirked, "Come on. You're in my Science class".
Barry gestured us to walk together to Science.
"Gabriella is perfectly capable of walking to her lessons on her own", Hector said, annoyed.
"Barry, just leave us alone", I snapped.
"Woah, easy tiger", Barry smiled cruelly, "Wouldn't want anyone finding out about your little...get together, would we?"
"You're just jealous", I spat.
"Of what, sweetheart?" Barry asked.
"Of us!" I said, nearly shouting, "You can't stand the thought of me being with anyone else. If you can't have me, no one can!"
Barry glared and just stood there for a while. Then, he suddenly grabbed my blouse collar and pulled my face really close towards his.
"Look, you better watch your mouth", he glared.
"Get off her!" Hector shouted, pushing Barry off of me.
"Well done, you two", Barry said, "You've just made your life far more worse for yourselves. Now it's £40 a week or I tell some one".
"What?" Hector asked, disgusted.
"You heard me, sir", Barry smiled, evilly.
Hector worriedly looked at me. We both knew that no one could ever find out otherwise Hector would lose his job and I would get expelled. I think Hector was thinking the same as me because he gave in to Barry.
"Fine. Whatever", Hector sighed, angrily, "What's a pathetic little school boy like you gonna do with some money anyway? Drugs? Good luck with that, mate. If we are lucky, they might just arrest you and then you'll be off our case".
"HEY!" Barry shouted, stepping closer to Hector, "I am NOT going to prison. They will never take me there".
For some reason, Barry had always despised prison. It is probably because his Dad is in there.
"Just go, Barry", Hector glared.
"Wait a second. Aren't a you forgetting something, sir?" Barry asked.
"What?" Hector sighed.
"Well, it's the start of the week, ain't it?" Barry asked.
Hector sighed heavily, picked up his wallet and slammed £40 into Barry's hands.
"Great doing business with you", Barry winked before walking off.
"Here", I said, grabbing £40 out of my purse.
"No, no, no", Hector smiled, putting his hands over mine, "It's fine. I just have to think of something that will make him stop".
"Like what?" I asked, curiously.
"Well, what is his weak point?" Hector asked.
"His family", I automatically replied, "If anyone threats, touches or hurts his family, he will go mad".
Hector slowly turned his gaze towards me, smiling as if he had an idea...
"Doesn't his Mum work here as a cook?" Hector asked, still evilly smiling.
