DRAKES P.O.V:
I watch as Ricky drags Emma onto a bus, and I feel like screaming. I throw my bag onto the ground in frustration. Why? Why on earth would he be the one saving her from me. Quite frankly, I think it should be the other way around, but no, Ricky goes and turns into the good guy, and suddenly I'm the culprit!
Well, I can't fix anything standing in the school parking lot. Climbing onto a random school bus, I slip into a seat. "Hey Drake! It's me! Dale!" Turning around, I spot Dale a few seats behind me. He waves me over. I stand up, walk down the bus aisle, and plop down next to him.
Questions launch out of Dales mouth like sonic. "Why you on this bus? Where's yours? Where you going?"
"Missed mine. Gone. Emmas house," I answer effortlessly.
"Woah! Emmas? Why? Whatchya gonna do?"
"I know surprising. Yes. Because. None of your business."
"Got a reason? Can I hear it? Do you know where she lives? Need help finding her place?"
"Yes. No. No. Sure." Dale bounces up and down excitedly.
"Great! I can show you as soon as we get dropped off!" I nod at him. Dale cackles evily, and I find myself joining in.
