3. Ay You Know This Boy Got His Free Taco

It was finally Friday. The week passed slowly. Every day after school, I ran to my house so I can have as much time as possible to read the supernatural bible. Patrick came over Wednesday and helped me with it. He told me which parts were completely useless and I skipped it. I read most of it. Out of 1200 pages, I read 800 pages. Oh, and by the way, Patrick, Ryan and Tyler had a MONTH to read the whole thing. Why are my parents like this?

The school was as usual. We rarely talked about this whole thing there, because we would risk someone hearing us and if that someone was one of them, we all would be dead the next day.

Today passed like the rest of the week, but more exciting since it's Friday. We just finished the last period before lunch. I got to the cafeteria, took my lunch and sat down with the others.

"So what are we gonna do after school? You know, for your late birthday."Tyler said when I sat down.

Oh shit, true. I promised them we'll do something, but I was too busy with the book and school to think about it. "I didn't really think about it. What do you want to do?" I said.

Suddenly Tyler got hyped at my question. A small smile appeared on his face and he spoke. "I suggest Taco Bell."

"I'm ok with it," Patrick said.

"Me too."

"Don't you think Taco Bell is getting old?" Ryan said. Tyler's face went blank as he started staring at Ryan. "I mean we always go there. I know Tyler's a Taco Bell fan, but can't we do something else? There's not a single week we haven't been there." He justified. Tyler's face went serious this time. "All right!" Ryan gave up. A smirk appeared on Tyler's face as he broke the eye contact with Ryan and continued eating his lunch.

It was finally the last period. I went from my math class to the English class. Ryan was already there. He was reading Pride and Prejudice. I didn't bother him and took a seat next to him. I started to take out my books when suddenly my eye caught something in my bag. I reached for it and took it out. It was a perfectly folded piece of paper.

I never keep loos papers in my bag. Well, when I do, it all gets torn apart due to my books, but this one looks fresh. Like it's been there for less than a day. I can confirm it wasn't there yesterday and I don't remember putting a paper in my bag today, so it's not mine but it is for me. How do I know? Because it's clearly written Dear Frank on it and I'm not that dumb, I can read.

I continue reading the rest of the letter.

"Meet me at the end of Hamilton Street, behind the abandoned fire department. Be there today at 8. Bring no one. Tell no one. Destroy this message as soon as you can.

-Someone you defiantly know"

I froze when I finished reading. Who can it be? Probably a prank right? I looked at Ryan next to me who was still reading his book. It's not them for sure, because Ryan is the worst secret keeper. If it was them, trust me, I'd know.

What if it's some serial killer who wants me away from everyone so he can kill me? What if it's someone important whom I really know? Either way, I'm going to be there. I can not sleep peacefully tonight without knowing who this mysterious person is. I'll take a baseball bat with me to ensure my safety.

I quickly tucked the paper in my pocket when I heard the bell. Everyone took their seats and the class stated.

Gerard's POV

The English class was going slower than I expected. We were 10 minutes in but it felt like hours. The class was discussing with the teacher about the book we are currently reading. I'm sorry, let me rephrase that. They were discussing the book they were reading. I never really started it. I don't even remember the book's name.
