When practice was over and the rest of the team left to go home, Cooper took noticably slower to leave.
"Whatcha thinks wrong with him?" Racheal whispered to me. Stealing the question I've been wondering about right from my mouth.
Leaning my head a bit towards her, without breaking my eyes away from the scene I whispered back, "Wanna bet on it?"
She looked at me and then bit the inside of her cheek, holding back her devious smile.
"Heads" She laughed.
I frowned upon her choice sighing "-Tails"
Soon enough, we watched Cooper get called over by coach, pulling him aside and lowering his voice. We waited until the coach said what he wanted and then watched Cooper sulk on over to where we were seated. Once he got here, he dropped down flat on his back and closed his eyes. Silence was met and questions were ringing.
"...She broke up with me" Cooper mumbled, voice barely audible.
Racheal looked at me in the corner of her eye and I sucked in a sharp breath, passing over the five dollar bill I had in my pocket quietly.
"You guys are evil.."Lucas whispered coming up behind us before walking away. Me and Racheal chuckled at that.
"Hey guys I gotta go. English quiz tomarrow" Lucas called looking over his shoulder. We watched him leave after we waved him off.
Suddenly Mike sprang up without a word, to jog up next to Lucas. Obviously there was something going on between them that we couldnt know. What happened at the farm last summer? It was just me, Lucas, Mike, peter, and Izzy. Plus we were with each other basically 24/7 the whole trip. Well Izzy actually got homesick and left early, but that imformation is usless. There isnt anything in that old barn, its falling apart, thats why the doors are locked.
But, ever since that vacation, mike and lucas have this distance between each other. And any mention of the farm or barn they both get defensive or try to change the conversation.
I felt Racheal tap my shoulder so I looked over. "..Okay, they De-fin-itly fucked in that creepy ass barn!" she said "I knew Lucas had a thing for mike but..in a 300 year old barn!?"
Donny boy chocked on air, Coopers eyes snapped open, and I sat there confused as hell.
Donny boy shook his head in dissagreement "Bro chill with your gay fantasy, like for real." he said "Your fan books or fan shit-"
"It's fan fiction dummy, and who said anything about it."Racheal hissed "All I said was that they probably-"
"Fucked, yes I know. I heard what you said the first time."Donny boy interupted "Anyway, still. They aint like that."
Cooper sat up sitting criss cross, frowning then looked down. He took a breath and spoke.
"It aint any of our business, so we should leave it alone" Cooper mumbled. "..If thats how they wanna go at it, then let them.. Besides whatever happened is between them, and between them only. They dont need a bunch of outsiders sticking their nose in their business, and trying to fix a problem they obviously want to avoide." Cooper sighed wiped his face, obviously looking worn "..You cant help people who dont want help."
Donny boy paused but then added. "Hey I think he's right guys-"
"Well of course he is Dummy boy" Racheal said stuffing her snacks back in he bag roughly.
"H-hey! C'mon, you were so close to saying it back there. What were you thinkning?!" Mike pressed.
I looked at him a bit but then kept walking.
"Dude, why can't you get over it. Your making it hard for the rest of the group. We were drunk and just fooling around, and said some shit. Boo hoo, it's over!" he continued.
I rolled my eyes just wishing he would shut up. I was pratically blinded and scarred for the rest of my life from it. My pure days were over after what I saw. How should I even start to get over it?
"It was dark so you didnt even see what happened, yet your so worked up" Mike growled eye brows nitting together in clear frustration.
I stopped causeing Mike to turn around. "YOU"RE the one so worked up. While i'm trying to walk away and pretend its nothing, YOU keep coming back. You have something to hide, Im not the one who is worried about letting it spill. And considering I wasnt invloved in what you did and that I was just walking by, the question is what were you really doing that night?"I seethed pushing him a bit.
"Lucas you're not so innocent either" Mike yelled to me as I walked away.
By the time I got to my bus stop, my head was full of images from that night. Shaking my head I realized I should of kept walking, not even bothering to look beyond those forged open doors. I mean..what were they thinking? What if Russel found them? O-or Izzy for that matter! Lord knows the girl wouldnt drop it even if she was being bribed with ten Victoria Seceret gift counts. The world wouldnt hear the end of it.
They stole Russel's grandfathers seceret scotch, and downed it like idoits. Words slurring, body swaying lazily and bullshit on their minds, they decided to get dumb. And by that I mean them joking around acting all touchy and sexual.
Long story short one thing led to another, and then you have a drunk mike kissing an amused face Peter. Yeah I said it! The'straight' mike, at the time, was getting it on with another dude. Hell! We all ought to be suprised. Mike was the straightest guy we know..well knew.
Something seems off about Vincint Highschool when a new group of kids make an appearance a quarter into the school year. If anyone thought these newbies weren't any sort of threat, be tempted to look again. These angel like faces are just a mere illusion to hide something away. But to be completely honest, they aren't too worried if one finds out, since the truth is far from believable.
