Ryan was sitting in his chair, looking out the window. He didn't want to look at his leg. He would never be able to ride again. He was broken. The one thing that made him him, he wouldn't be allowed to do. Ryan heard Ash walked in. He slowly turned around. "I'm sorry I left. I needed to get some fresh air. My dad was killed, and now I dont have a leg. I guess you could say I am a mess." He slowly wheeled over to her. "it must have been the worst first date you've ever been on. I know it's the same for me." he said now directly in front of Ash. "but I did have fun, even if we did only get to spend only a few minutes together." He said looking up at her. His eyes were red and puffy. He had been crying that was easy to tell. "But I'll leave that up for you if you wanna go for another date." Winona

June
​

She listened and followed her. She didn’t know she had this much in common with Raven and it filled her with a weird sense of happiness. She wasn’t entirely alone. She paused when she stopped in front of the locker, she adjusted her hold on her case until she had said that her Mom was responsible for hitting Ryan. She looked up quickly her eyes wide as she heard. She didn’t know what to say once more. Her mother was high, how horrible must of that been and her grandmother. June bit her lip. “You couldn’t have known. It wasn’t your fault.” She said softly, reaching out and holding her hand. “I know bad things happen and it’s very easy to blame yourself when they do. But, don’t.” She shook her head. “Okay that sounds very bland and everything. But really. I’m sorry.” She let go of her hand. “Thank you for telling me. And I had someone close to me hurt too...” she sighed. “But I’m glad we’re friends.” She started to walk again looking at the newsroom and waving back to Raven. “I’ll see you tomorrow!” She smiled brightly to her before going inside.

She shut the door behind her before shutting the door. Walking over to her computer she unzipped the case and sat down. Opening it up and downloading the video and pictures. She tapped her finger on the table. Maybe she could update her blog on what happened today. She hesitated for a moment before checking writing up the story and putting the video in. It looked very nice. She smiled to herself as she closed out and shut the computer down. She grabbed her things as David called her, he was here to pick her up. She texted a quick “coming” before pausing. Well I’ll have to take more pictures tomorrow. I’ll just lock up the camera. She walked over to the drawers, locking her camera before quickly running off.

Georgia
​

She waited until June left before walking in, making a straight b-line to her computer. She smiled as she stared at the screen. With the help of her friend, they could do anything. The password was easy, already figured out by her by watching her tap it in all day. Once she was in, the rest just fell into her lap.

The blog. USB and download. Most of the heavy lifting will be done tonight in her home. She shut down the computer and stood up. She made her way to the drawers and pulled a bobby pin from her hair. She inserted it and felt around until snap. Georgia smiled as she took the camera out and hugged it to herself. “You’re going down June. Right down to hell.” She whispered before slamming the drawer shut and waking out.

Tonight was the night, she’ll leak everything.

Mason

Everything that had happened was simply too much. And Alester trying to insist on getting Kanen to drink about sent him over the edge. "He's sick, god damn it." Mason snapped at him. "He can't have any alcohol without getting arrested. He's on probation." Rage for his old best friend was strong because in the same situation, Mason would've done the same thing to Ryder. "I'm going outside." He needed a cigarette, and there were too many in here.

So Mason limped his way out of the auditorium, his fingers fumbling with his pack of cigarettes as he pulled one out, slipping it between his lips, although he waited to light it until he was out.

Jace

Great, so little Stu the freshman had come in and seen him like this. Jace groaned and pulled his beanie down over his eyes to hide the tears spilling from them as Stu hurried around, cleaning up the mess of music sheets and lecturing him on crying. "I don't care if anyone sees me. Let them laugh." He grumbled.

"My little sister... god, I was so stupid. I trusted Ryder. I thought he wouldn't do anything to hurt her, but he's just like every other god damn guy on the face of this planet." Now, all he really wanted to do was punch the dude. But Jace was not a violent person, he didn't want to break his hand, and it would just make everything worse.

"And Nova... I don't know what to do about Nova." Jace hadn't entirely meant what he said when he told Kanen to destroy Ryder. He'd been in his own world, in his little protect-the-sister place, and he hadn't thought about how Nova would feel in that situation. Why would he? Despite how much he cared for Nova, his sister would always come first... or at least she should. Something he had forgotten and failed to do for the last week. This sucked.

Ash

How had Ash gone from the having no boys that wanted to date her, to now having Ryan confessing this, and Ryder professing his love? This was all making her sick, and dizzy, and she had no idea where she stood with either boy. But one thing she did know was that what had happened would probably be thrown all over social media, and Ash didn't want him to find out through there.

"It was far from the worst first date I've ever been. I had a... a great time, until you left. And I'm sorry, about what happened with your dad, and this..." The happiness faded, and her guilt came rushing back full force. "And... Ryan, I'm so sorry. I don't think you'll want to go on another date with me." She admitted, shaking her head at her self. "I need to tell you this, and I'm sorry that I have to tell you now, but everyone knows and I don't want you finding out from someone else."

Her eyes looked down at her hands, playing with the zipper of hoodie as she tried to find the words and the courage to admit to Ryan everything that had happened. "I... I thought you ditched me... because you were having a bad date because of me ditching you a couple times for friends." For Ryder. Both times had been for her to hangout with Ryder. God, what was wrong with her? "Umm... so after you left, I got... I got really down on myself, and I went home with Ryder, Alaska, Raven, and June. To have a sleepover."

This next part hurt the worst as she trailed her eyes up from her jacket to look Ryan in the face while she said the next parts, tears starting to well in her eyes again. "I started drinking a bit, and Ryder and I went to his room so he could help me talk things over. About you. And then..." she hesitated before saying the last part. "We, uh, we slept together."

At that moment of her confession, Ash looked over her shoulder to see Sawyer standing there. Great. Now there would be witnesses to Ryan yelling at her.

Rory Quinn

His nerves relax when he heard about Alester being gay. Not that he was jealous but as Angelina's boyfriend should want to know who she is talking too. That also meant she had a right to know who he was talking to as well. Although he didn't like it either took a deep breath.

"Sounds nice. I met my co-star Raven who will play my...girlfriend in the play". Rory heard Angelina's suggestion for coffee. "I could use the caffeine".

Alester McGregor

After Rory showed up Alester had stopped talking to Angelina. He shot her a weird look after what she said.
Suddenly Mason stood up, made a comment about Kanen and then left the auditorium. Alester was shocked for a moment. Normally it was a hard task for him to get Mason mad, did Mason know about what happened with Drake? Alester hoped Mason wouldn't be mad about it.

After the initial shock, Alester stood also up, paid no attention to Rory and Angelina and left the auditorium to follow Mason "Hey Mason! Wait up.. this isn't about Drake right?" He shouted after his friend

Angelina tensed a little as Rory explained who he would be playing. "You've told Raven you're taken"? She asked in a composed manner before playing with her hair a little. "If not, tell her the next time you see her. While I'm not bothered by your role, I'd like Raven to know you're taken. In case she does anything off-stage". She held his hand tighter, stroking it faster. "Now, let's get going. Don't want to keep you from your caffeine" Angelina said with a little chuckle.

Nova
​

Conflict within herself was something that Nova was growing used to, as it seemed to plague her mind whenever she stepped foot onto Westbrook's campus. It was natural. The bugs that crawled under her skin, the anxiety of the thought of blood spattering on the checked tile floors, or the sound of crunching bone echoing throughout the football field. And to a point, it was somewhat... normal. No, the broken noses and bruised knuckles didn't exactly come to mind the minute that the brunette was getting up and getting ready for school, but fights and screaming boys and constant lack of surety was incredibly familiar. It reminded her of her high school back in Seattle, where she wasn't just a girl who liked to draw birds, and play guitar, and binge watch violent TV shows... back at Black Hills High School, Nova tended to be the accidental center of attention, and it scared her to think that that same reputation was creeping up behind her.

She had always been quiet, but not in the sweet way that she was now. Nova had been quiet in the sneaky way, the type of quiet that allowed her to sneak out at night to visit college boyfriends who were high off of this or that, the type of quiet that allowed her to steal money from her parents to attempt to get those same drugs on discount for whoever had been abusing her heart at the time. Nova was the type of quiet that made it possible to hide bruises and scratches of men that had been too rough with her, demanding that she come back in the morning because they loved her. Well, he loved her... Mat that is. And maybe Mat had nothing to do with Westbrook, maybe the screaming and punching made Nova's cringe, made her want to run away, just because she was an empathetic soul, though she doubted it greatly. And as she sat at the top of the bleachers, silent tears littering a flushed face, she couldn't help but grab hold of the shirt she was wearing... her boyfriend's shirt... Jace's shirt... the shirt of a man who had just yelled at her in front of a group of people. It wasn't like the hazel eyed girl was comparing Jace to Mat, she couldn't ever see the blonde boy grabbing her by the neck and tossing her into the wall, but yelling in general just sent her into this almost numb-like state.

At the thought of that night Nova reached up and touched the back of her head where, hidden beneath thick hair, laid a scar from the damage that the dresser had done. Mat had been angry that Nova was leaving in a few months, drunk and uncontrollable. She had begged him to calm down, asked him to come with her even and when she got too close his hand had shot out, gripping her neck like a baseball bat before throwing her like a ragdoll into the wall, the back of her head connecting with the corner of his dresser. That was Nova's first concussion... and probably the reason she was so ridiculously worried about Ryder.

Had it not been for the metal rumbling of the bleachers, Nova probably could've sat like that forever, balled into the corner of the seats, thinking about her life and the mistakes that she had called lovers, but luckily, she was pulled out of it. She quickly whisked away tears, pulling her hair from her face as she looked down the row, seeing the same dark haired boy who had stood next to her before the outbreak. He had seemed almost amused at the time, although Nova was almost sure it couldn't have been more intense. "Hi," The word fell from her lips as if it was almost an apology, her voice weak and small as she sat up a little straighter, the dark haired boy approaching with kind blue eyes. "I uh... I don't think I got your name before hell broke loose. I'm Nova."

[Dak]

Ryan's eyes filled with hatred then anger then sadness as Ash spoke. She told him that she and Ryder had slept together. What hurt even more was that she had done it right after he had been admited to the hospital.He understood that she didn't know, but still the pain of betrayal from that action still hurt like a burning knife being stabbed into his heart over and over again. He clenched his fists in anger when she was done. He didn't even look her in the face. He just turned himself around and went back over to the window. He was done.

"I told you I wanted another date. What do you tell me? You slept with another man... and this one is the one you said not to worry about. This one was just a friend." His voice breaking with sadness as each word gets harder and harder to say. "I hate you.... Ashton West..... I hate you." He said lifting his fist up above his head. Tears were streaming down his face. He was facing the other direction from them so they wouldn't see the tears. He was going to bring his fist down on the arm of his chair, but slowly lowered it. "get out." He said in a low, yet loud voice. Still trembling. "Just get out....." He said looking out the window. He was done with dating. Hell he was done with everything. He didn't want to see anyone else for the rest of the day.

Mason

No, it was nothing that Alester had done. All of the actions today and seeing Kanen like that had just caused Mason to also be confused, and angry, even though he wasn't sure why. And he had no idea where June had gone, and all Mason wanted to do was make sure that she was alright after all the yelling. God... All this school did was yell.

However, he did turn on Alester, narrowing his eyes as he pulled the unlit cigarette from between his lips. "What do you mean? What happened with Drake?" Mason asked, gritting his teeth as he started towards him. He realized that since Ash's party, Alester and Drake hadn't spoken. He hadn't thought anything of it, but now... Now he was suspicious.

Drake

After everything, Drake hadn't been sure where to go. But everyone seemed to have someone to comfort them, except the new girl. Jace's girl. So he'd trailed after, pausing for a moment before he started up the bleachers. At her words, he smiled faintly. "Drake." He said, sitting down next to her and looking out over the football field.

"Are you alright? I mean, I guess that's a dumb question -- of course you're not. But do you want to talk about it?" Drake asked, turning to look at Nova as he spoke. "If not, that's fine. But if you don't mind, I'd like to sit here with you. Being upset and alone is never a good idea." He said, spouting beliefs that he had never followed.

Raven
​

Raven didn’t say anything, she kept her eyes locked on the floor. Her gaze drifted to the hand June was holding, She heard what she said, and she was incredibly sweet for it. But it didn’t help. She nodded in fake understanding. “Mmhm.” Raven stood quiet as she spoke. Her phone buzzed and she quickly pulled it out, it could’ve been her mother. Raven doesn’t remember the last time she was actually looking forward from hearing from her. But it wasn’t her mom. It was a text from Ryan, she immediately stood up straight. Talking to June while looking at her phone, “It’s okay, i know what you mean.”

She reassured her. She looked up listening when she said someone she knew got hurt too.
The smallest of smiles graced her face when June said goodbye. “See you.” She said as a goodbye.

She made her way to the hospital, Raven was relieved that was okay. If he didn’t pull through.. well she didn’t want to think about it. Raven stood at the doorway to his room, she smiked genuinely when she saw him, but it faded quickly when her eyes landed on the wheelchair, obviously noticing he lost a leg. And all the guilt came flooding back. She took a shaky breath, she was going to enter. But right before she did.

Ryan started to talk to Ash, about whatever happened between her & Ryder. She didn’t want to get involved, but she decided to step in. She waved, biting her lip. Looking at Ash for a second before turning towards Ryan. “Hey, Partner.” She put a grin on her face, attempting to cheer him up.

“About time you woke up, lazy guys aren’t a turn-on.” She playfully added, putting a hand on his shoulder.

Alester McGregor

Alester finally caught up with Mason. For someone with a limp he could sure get out fast to get his cigarette.
Alester actually became a little scared when Mason turned around. Alester was taller than Mason, but Mason was still impressive. Alester should have never started about Drake. Clearly Mason didn't knew about it "Well.. um.. nothing, let's get outside to get your cigarette" The redhead starting walking again, heading outside.

Ash

His words hurt more than Ash would like to admit, and she just nodded her head slowly, listening. She winced as he mentioned how she'd promised him not to worry, it was just Ryder. Just Ryder. But obviously after everything that had happened, it was clear he had never been just Ryder, or just her best friend. For her, he'd always been a little something more, and it hurt to admit it to herself after what she had told Ryder, and now with Ryan in front of her.

"Alright," she whispered, her voice barely audible as she spoke. Ash then turned and walked out of the hospital room, brushing past Sawyer and then Raven on her way out. Down the hallway, the elevators, and the whole time all she felt was completely numb. She'd hurt Ryan, all because she didn't trust him. Because she'd been worried about him being a player, and look what had happened. Ash had been the one to sleep with someone else.

She groaned in the elevator, leaning back against the wall until it came to a shuddering stop. Ash wasted no time leaving the hospital and making her way home. There was no way that after this day, she would be able to return to school. Not today, and maybe not even tomorrow or any day.

Hesitantly, but not wanting to deal with this all alone, she fumbled with her phone as she walked, sending a quick text to Ryder. Who else was she supposed to turn to who would understand? Grace had been spending a ton of time with Ryan and Sawyer, so who knew if she'd even care? Or if she'd side with Ryan?

Told Ryan. He hates me now.

Her finger hovered, considering adding more, but she soon decided against it and just pressed send.

Nova
​

A small smile took home on Nova's lips as Drake introduced himself, moving her legs to allow him to sit. He was being so quiet and gentle, it made the brunette wondered if she looked as fragile as she felt. And then the dreaded question... 'Do you want to talk about it'. Because no, she didn't. The only thing that Nova truly wanted in this world right now was a pint of mint chip and all seven seasons of Game of Thrones. Maybe throw in a body pillow to cuddle since she was still conflicted as to whether or not she wanted Jace around.

"I don't like yelling," She spoke after some substantial silence, sniffling as her eyes averted down to a loose string on the t-shirt she was wearing, her hands moving to fiddle with it. "I've only been here a month, and I feel like all I've seen is yelling, and blood, and ambulances, and broken bones and it's just like... what the fuck?" A groan left her lips as she looked back up to Drake, pursing her lips and sitting up so she was a little closer to him. There wasn't any reason that he had to come up here and sit with Nova, he didn't know her, and had probably just learned her name. Not that she was complaining, if there was anything that she needed it was a friend. "Is it always like this?" Voice softening into a chuckle, Nova brought her knees to her chest, releasing the pesky string. "All bloody and violent I mean... like do Maine kids never just sit down and watch TV?"

Mason

"No," Mason growled, not following after Alester as he tried to change the subject. His hands clenched together, and he stopped the cigarette to the ground. "What did you do to Drake?" Jace being protective was one thing, but Mason being protective was completely different. He had no problem snapping people crossed Drake, even though half the time Mason was the one that hurt his feelings.

"Was it at Ash's party? What did you do?" It had to of been bad to cause Drake to take such a turn from manic to depressive over night like that. Something had triggered him, but Mason had been unable to piece together exactly what.

Ryan wiped away tears as Ash walked out. He now knew what it felt like when he played those people. He felt the hot, sharp kinfe as it was thrust into his back many a time. Fuck feelings, Fuck life. He was done with it. He wished he didn't wake up from the coma. He wished that he was not there. He didn't want to be around anymore. "Fuck feelings. It doesn't matter anymore. I hate the world." He mumbled to himself.

Then Raven came up. She tried to lighten his mood. It took a second. But with Ash gone and his best friend and partner there maybe things would change. "Bitches be crazy." Was all he said. He took in a deep breathe and released it. "fuck her. It was one date, but still. Fuck her." He said looking out the window. "Fuck the sad shit. What have we got at school? Any scoops I missed out?" He asked with a small bit of perk in his eyes. He couldn't wait to get back on the paper scene. He had something he was going to add into the paper. Something that he hoped he would never have to put in.

Alester McGregor

Alester stopped. When Mason started to growl Alester knew it was serious. He turned around and looked his friend in the eyes. Alester opened his mouth but hesitated. This could ruin their friendship. Alester didn't wanted that. Should he tell a lie or tell the truth? If he told a lie now things could get worse.. but maybe he then could find a way to tell Mason when he was less pissed.

Alester could better tell Mason now, so he continued "After we arrived at the party I did some shots with Drake, he was totally fine with it, I promise. We decided to play truth or dare and I dared him to kiss me. Then he panicked and ran away, I didn't knew what to do. I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have done it" Tears began to fill Alester his eyes "I fucked up, big time"

[High5ives]

He was so close to just breaking down right then and there. As Alaska stepped forward and slowly wrapped her arms around him, Kanen let out a slow drawn out sigh. What was the point? This would go no where. In a month, Kanen would be a distant memory, a funny story to tell her friends when they swapped stories at slumber parties. Kanen. Didn't. Matter.

"Get your fucking hands off me, and don't you ever touch me, ever again." Kanen said, his voice rumbling up out of his chest, growling out from his throat. "I'm not doing this. I am fine. Just the way I am. If you think any differently, than you're just as stupid as your fucking pervert brother. Piss off. Find someone else to bother." He spoke. Kanen's hands found her wrists, and with ease, Kanen pried her off of him. "Fuck you. Fuck this whole city. You and everyone else can burn in hell. I am not your problem, and none of this is mine. I'm done."

With that, Kanen walked away turning down the hallway and promptly walking out the front doors. His feet hit marched out towards the parking lot, to his car. He was so mad, at himself, at everyone else, just at the world. He was so sick and tired of feeling mad, or sad, or anything. He was tired of it all. He didn't want to feel.

Getting back to his car, Kanen's hands fumbled over his keys, popping open the trunk and opening up the spare tire well.

Inside was Kanen's stash. A single bottle of whiskey Kanen hadn't thrown away. Because even when he decided to try and be sober, Kanen was afraid to be without it...

Grabbing the bottle, Kanen got in the car, starting the engine and putting on his shades. The car's engine purred, then it roared as Kanen took off, tearing his way down the road, just driving without any real destination. He had no where to go. No where stop. No where to be.

Kanen. Didn't. Matter.

In the span of just a couple of weeks, He had destroyed his relationship with just about everyone. He had thought things were going to get better, but look what had happened. Kanen stopped drinking and all he did was tear people apart. He had only managed to damage and destroy just about everything he had come into contact with. All Kanen did was cause problems here, for himself and everyone else.

Kanen twisted the cap off and locked his lips around the bottles top. It was like liquid fire pouring down his throat, igniting him from the inside out. He craved he feeling. The hot burn boiling down his chest into the pit of his stomach. The way the bottle felt in his hands. The way the liquor swirled inside. This was Kanen. Just a fucking bottle full of liquid fire. Just a hollowed out man, alcohol gave him life.

Suddenly Kanen found himself out of town, but he didn't even slow down. Why should he? What was there for him in Westbrook? Empty bottles, a headstone, and a whole lot of misery. Why should he stay? What could there possibly be to keep him in this hell-hole of a city. He had no family here. Friends were virtually absent. Fucking hell, Kanen didn't even have a home. He was living out of his fucking car for God's sake!

Kanen. Didn't. Matter.

There was nothing for him to turn around for. This was it. Kanen wasn't going back, not to some school where he was idolized as some sort of drunken monster. He was going to go crawling back to to his Step-Mother, so he could watch her inevitably end his life too. Kanen sure as hell wasn't going back to that. This was the end of Kanen's rampage through Westbrook.

He pressed the pedal down, feeling the car accelerate around him as he drove south out of town. There was peace in his newfound resolve. Somewhere, deep down, Kanen was glad to leave everything behind. Besides, it's not like Westbrook miss him.

Kanen.

Didn't.

Matter.

[IMG='align:right;']https://i.imgur.com/5Mi2tyB.png[/IMG]Neck Tie didn’t know what to do in a situation like this. The last time he tried to help a crying kid it backfired spectacularly and he got socked in the stomach. This was after a ‘football’ match which he’d won 8-0 and was personally responsible for 5 of the goals. So he was the last person the crying kid wanted to see when he was bawling his eyes out in the middle of the pitch. He sucker punched eight-year-old Neck Tie so hard the boy was rolling in the grass clutching his belly until the coach ran across the field to the rescue.

His beanie buddy was inconsolable, and so the young freshman went round to him and awkwardly placed a hand on his shoulder. Then even that got too awkward by Neck Tie’s standards, so he circled back to the front and dragged the piano stool across the carpet and sat down quietly in front of Jace. And he just heard him out.

As Jace talked, Neck Tie reached into the pocket of his skinny jeans and took out a Kit Kat chunky bar and lay it flat on his knee. Then with all the strength of his opposing thumbs, he managed to split the chocolate bar in two right down the middle. Then he offered the better-looking half to Jace and began nibbling on the other.

Neck Tie didn’t know anything about Ryder, but he must have done something really bad to hurt Ash if Kanen was so keen to turn him into a punching bag like that. But he really felt for Jace when he talked about Nova. Jace must have cared about her a lot, and he had seen them cuddling all the time. ‘You were just standing up for your sister. . .’ he said, ‘I don’t know what I would’ve done.’

Sawyer didn't know what was going on with Ash but she chose not to pry about it. Once Ash left, Sawyer made no move to go. Raven stepped up to try and cheer Ryan up and Sawyer grinned a little at Ryan's 'Bitches be crazy'. He seemed to perk up a bit after that and Sawyer was glad to tell him what was up.


"Well, I've been coming and telling you all the shit cause the doctor told me you could hear me." Sawyer rolled her eyes and shoved her hands in her pockets, "I think they just tell people that to make them feel better. Anyway, we were all forced to do a play. We ended up with Grease." Sawyer chuckled, "I have to play a dude and get this..." Sawyer paused, she was about to tell him about Grace being her love interest. With Raven in the room. Slow your horses.


"Anyway, it kinda sucks and Kanen came in and freaked out on everybody today." Sawyer flopped down on Ryan's hospital bed with a dramatic sigh, "This blows, dude. When can you get outta here?"

Raven chuckled and nodded in agreement. “Girls are tough.” She wanted to say more, Ash shouldn’t of got yelled at. He went through a lot. But he shouldn’t of expected her to wait for him. After all, she thought he abandoned her. She decided to not say anything about it.

Right, the newspaper. It’s been such a hectic week she’d completely forgot about it. Georgia was handling all that for a little while. However that didn’t stop her from scolding Georgia once in a while, whenever she didn’t know what to do. “Uh.. y’know, same old same old. No scoops that interesting..” She gave him a smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes.

It was killing her seeing him like this. It was ultimately her fault. “Yeah, Sawyer’s asking the right questions.” She gave her a wink. “Are you getting out anytime soon or are we gonna have to break you out?” She asked.

He walked with Angelina to the coffee shop. "Is it really all that necessary? I'm sure she doesn't even like me", Rory questioned as they arrived at the coffee shop. To Rory this whole play didn't really mean anything to him so he didn't understand why Angelina seemed to care.

The smell of slightly bitter coffee filled his nose as the two stepped into tge shop. The only thing that would calm his nerves when he attended his prep school and the sole reason he passed was all thanks to coffee . He scanned the menu looking for something new to try as he often only got a simple expresso . "I'll get an iced blond, coconut vanilla bean latte."

"I don't want to take any chances" Angelina said in response. The gentle breeze blew her hair back a little. Her allergies were starting to play up as her nose tickled and scrunched up as more pollen got blown around. She'd never told Rory about her hayfever and how bad it can get; she'd been lucky over the past few days that the pollen count was low. The smell of coffee was a relief to her nose, overflowing and negating the pollen although she was feeling the need to sneeze grow with each passing second. Watching, and hearing, Rory say what he wanted, Angelina also scanned the menu. It wasn't often she had coffee. "I'll have the same" Angelina gasped before turning and having a sneezing fit into her arm, barely managing to keep them quiet. "Excuse me. Sorry" She apologised to Rory, blushing a little.

The brunette flinched as Kanen pushed her off, watching silently as he stormed out the door. She'd pushed too far and fucked things up, just like she always did. All she ever did was break things. Walls, faces, relationships, people. It didn't matter how hard she tried, she was never going to be able to get it right. Kanen was right, she was stupid for trying to help him when she barely knew anything about him. All she'd wanted was to help someone, thinking it would've made her feel better, like she could be helpful and fix something for once instead of breaking it. How fucking stupid she'd been to think she could do anything but destroy.

This was all her fucking fault. She'd barely even known Kanen and out of selfish impulse she'd decided to kiss him in the hallway, and since that day things had only gotten worse and worse. It was her fault Ash had gotten mad at Kanen and yelled at him, it was her fault he found out about Ash and Ryder sleeping together and freaked out in front of everyone. She was a walking disaster, ruining everything that she touched.

Alaska was tired. So, so tired. She wanted to lay down and die, maybe then she'd stop fucking everything up. Since Ryder had left she had no ride home, and at this point she wasn't even sure if she wanted to go home. Ryder probably wouldn't even look at her and she'd get another lecture from her mother on what a disappointment she was.

Tears fell freely from her eyes now, uncaring if anyone saw her falling to pieces as she walked away from the school with no direction in mind. She'd made it almost off the property when she saw Drake and Nova talking on the bleachers, and before she realized it she was sprinting towards her friends. When she finally made it to the only two people she could call friends she couldn't do anything but cry as she stood before them, trying to put into words how desperately she needed a friend right now.

Ryder

The football player had just pulled into his driveway when Ash texted him, his guilt overwhelming him as he read her message. In the matter of one day Ryder had seemingly ruined all of his and Ash's relationships and reputations, all because he'd been selfish. He debated what to do, it seemed no matter what he did he only made the situation worse. Ash had told him to stay away, but it felt wrong knowing his best friend was upset and he wasn't going to ignore her. At this point he had nothing else to lose, so he threw his gear into reverse and headed for Ash's house.

Before arriving, he stopped at the gas station to pick up an assortment of snacks in hopes that even if Ash refused to talk to him he could drop the care package off at her door. He wasn't sure that he'd be able to make this up to her, but chocolate seemed like a good place to start. In their year of friendship Ryder had memorized her favorite snacks, having bought them for her on multiple occasions in preparation for their movie nights.

He was nervous as he walked up to her front door, hesitating before knocking lightly. Maybe she wasn't even home, she *had* just been at the hospital. Or what if Jace answered the door? He'd have no problem punching the little dude in the face, but he didn't think that would be productive in his pursuit of Ash's forgiveness.

Mason

After everything that had happened, after watching his brother practically fade away over the last two weeks, Mason couldn't contain himself. He shoved Alester, hard, into the lockers behind him. "What the hell, man?! He's not supposed to fucking drink." Mason snapped, advancing on his friend as he did so. "You fucking did this. You fucking destroyed him. You're the fucking reason I can't get him to get up or eat or go to school, or anything. It was you. What the fuck?"

Of course it had been alcohol and kissing. Of course. Two things that Drake couldn't handle. After his last girlfriend had left Drake for... well, for Mason, he'd never been the same. And he'd been swallowing so many pills, so many drugs, and he was so broken, so fucked up, and then Alester had gone and tried to kiss him.

Mason couldn't help it as his fist came up, slamming into Alester's face. "Fuck you." He spat, then turned and limped his way out of the school, his fingers fumbling with his pack of cigarettes and lighter once more. God, he needed a smoke.

Drake

He nodded his head, listening. "I can understand that. I don't like dogs. Well, just because I got mauled once when I was kid." He explained and pointed to the side of his neck where a thick scar still was from that stupid dog that had attacked him, unprovoked. Now when Drake saw them, he jumped up on things, hissed like a cat, and then would start shaking. Ugh. Dogs were horrible. Anyway. "Yeah, this month has been exceptionally horrible. I can agree with that." He sighed, shaking his head as he thought over the events. "Fight Club Mondays aren't typical. Umm, I think it's just... well, Kanen has a lot going on."

Drake shrugged, brushing it off. Fights were fights, violence was violence. None of it got under his skin anymore after years of dealing with that at home. "It'll pass, eventually. Don't worry. Like, we've got to be done with all the drama by this point. I hope, anyway." He said, laughing for a moment before it died awkwardly. "You can only watch so much television here before it gets bored. Like, I guess there's stuff to do, but not when the school year rolls around. Thanks to all the stupid cold and snow and stuff. Plus I think Riverdale has inspired the kids here to become even more violent."

He was quiet for a moment, and then slowly put his arm around Nova's shoulders. "Uhh, I am not doing this in a sexual flirtatious manner. You just look like you could use a hug." Drake said, and then wrapped his other arm around her, hugging her tightly. "I'm sorry that you're going through so many tough things right now."

Drake only managed to hug her for a few seconds when Alaska showed up, tears streaming down her face. He quickly let go of Nova, and grabbed Alaska in his arms when she got up closer. "It's okay. It's not your fault." He said, whispering as he spoke and held her close, squeezing her into him. "You'll be okay. I promise."

Jace

Stu was almost more awkward than Jace, and that was saying something. He felt the boy pat him on the shoulder while he stayed hidden away in his beanie, and then Stu moved away. Reluctantly, Jace pulled his beanie back up away from his eyes, sniffling as he did so and rubbing away the wetness from his puffy eyes. "You're alright, Stu. You're alright." He said, smiling weakly and taking the chocolate from him, nibbling it as he thought, still slouched.

"I should've punched Ryder instead of telling Kanen, too." Jace groaned. What a wasted opportunity, even if Jace knew he'd never do such a thing. He slunk further into his seat if it was even possible, his poor yellow beanie barely even staying on his head in a haphazard position on his head. "Like, they've been friends. Best friends. Ash has Ryder, and she has Grace. And I knew he had a reputation, but I never thought he'd hurt her. I thought he cared."

Jace sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose as he spoke. "And now everything with Nova is ruined, and I'll have to make up to her because god, I can't lose her over something this stupid." He shook his head, and his hand fell away from his face as he took another bite of the chocolate. "Do you have any sisters?"

Ash
[IMG='width:267px;']https://data.whicdn.com/images/267336076/original.gif[/IMG]

She had only just made it home and was on her way to her bedroom to change into pajamas, and then crawl under her blankets and watch Grease so that when they actually got around to practicing for the musical, she could be as good as possible. Hell, maybe Ash would even try practicing the dance moves in the safety of her room, where no one could yell at her, or tell her off, or say they hated her. In those walls, she was safe and alone... with Jeffrey, the lovely ferret.

That's when there was a knocking on the front door, and Ash headed over, opening it up. She stopped, surprised to see Ryder standing there with snacks. Despite everything that had happened, and what she'd said to him, Ryder had shown up for her, and she couldn't help but give him a little smile, despite how weak it was. She stepped forward, throwing her arms tightly around him and burying her face in his chest. "I'm sorry. I don't want to not talk to you. I don't care what happens, but I want to fix this."

She then pulled away, grabbing the bag from Ryder and poking around in it, smiling again. "Yes. I can't believe you remembered these..." Ash said, looking up from the bag at him. "Alright. You've passed. Come on. I'm going to watch Grease and feel sorry for myself and eat too much. You can come if you want."

With the bag securely in her arms, Ash headed across for the stairs, heading up into her too pink room, where she dumped the snacks on her bed. Perfect. Chocolate and her bed. What else could she possibly need? ... Other than an intact reputation, to not be hated by Ryan, and a few other things, of course.

Rory nodded. " So is this going to be a thing in our relationship? Telling each other who we talk to". He took a sip of latte noting the sweetness. Another unsuccessful attempt at trying something new he though as he turned on heels to return it. Before he could exchange the drink at the last minute he decided to keep it.

The ridged ways of prep school were still engrained in him and he wanted to separate himself fromy that life completely. So he took Angelina to the hand and found two stools for the to sit and talk.

"This is my first relationship so I'm sorry if I seem clueless. I have you been in a relationship before?", he asked curious about her experience.
