1.22

*rumble* out of nowhere a loud rumbling sound could be heard, that was a loud thunder, looks like the rain is going to get worse or maybe not. Looking around everyone is still focusing on the situation, I was the only one who faze because of the thunder. It would be nice to have a window to this room, so next time we would see the lighting first indicating there's a thunder coming. That was very loud though, for what I know this room is almost at the back of the building, maybe that's why we could hear the thunder or it was just really loud.

*thud* Dean slam the table gently, it was just like slapping someone. He broke the silence, causing everyone to pay attention to him and said "so, what's the game plan," he asked.

Chase messed his hair a bit, puts both of his hands on his face and wipe the irritation on it, then he spoke "geez I guess all of us were zoning out from thinking, huh,"

"that was unsettling, I never would have thought that thinking too much would be problematic," Grant added.

Stacy smiled, she puts her arm on Grant's shoulders and gave him a hug, she said "it just goes to show that all of you are focusing on the task at hand. There's no need to push it further,"

"it is raining, it's supposed to be a relaxing time when it rains," Jack added.

Kyle stood up from his chair and said "let me make some hot chocolate drink for everyone, all of you must be still cold,"

Ashley stood up as well and said "I'll help as well and make some sandwiches,"

"thanks you too, appreciated it," I added.

I scanned the room and everyone was relieved from all of the thinking. Dean doesn't feel relax at all, suddenly his eyes widen and he said something out of the blue "tomorrow we should definitely investigate the teachers office. I just remembered since the announcement at 10am didn't happened,"

Chase's eyes also widens and put his hand on his mouth, out of disbelief, he may have forgotten all about it. He spoke "I guess I'm all stressed out huh, I even forgot about that,"

"that's alright Chase, he does have a point. They didn't told us anything and wasted our time," Grant replied.

"oh yeah -" Dean pointed at Grant and Stacy -"Who are you two??" Dean asked.

"sorry for the late introduction, my name is Grant Gibson -" Grant puts his arm around Stacy's shoulders -"and this is Stacy Summers," he replied.

Dean smiled at them and ask "let me guess, a couple??"

"certainly," Stacy answered and proceeded to hug Grant.

Jack, Zayn and Michael begun playing some games on their phones, it was definitely noisy and I could hear some gunshots, it's probably those shooting games. Those three are having fun, *thud* Chase slam his face on the table, he must be bored out of his mind. Dean took out his phone, Grant and Stacy are cuddling. Rest assured at least they are having fun and able to relax at a time like this.

Ashley and Kyle were back with a tray full of hot chocolate drinks and sandwiches. Ashley spoke "here you go everyone!!"

Both of them gave a sandwich and a hot chocolate drink, they went around and gave it to them one by one. It's like we're in a restaurant and both of them are waiters serving us some delicacies. The steaming hot Chocolate emitted a strong aroma, it must have been the chocolate used in this *slurp* "its delicious, even with a strong aroma it goes well with its sweet flavor. Well done both of you!!" I commented their work, it's only natural to give them a positive compliment when they have done something when nobody asked.

Everyone also took a sip of the hot chocolate, they were also surprised by the taste of it. I tried the sandwich that they also prepared.

"the crust is just perfect and the egg inside is perfectly cooked, definitely a good job both of you," Dean added.

Chase was woken up by hunger, fortunately theirs a sandwich and hot chocolate laying their on top of the table. His expression changed, he wasn't tired anymore.

Ashley and Kyle both went back to their seats and said "we're glad all of you loved it," they started eating with us too.

Though Dean is right the crust is perfectly cooked, it's still kinda hot which makes the bread above and below it heat up. Definitely a perfect sandwich suited with a perfect hot chocolate on a perfect rainy weather. I do hope moments like this would last forever, made new friends here and doing everything to beat, solve all of this nonsense in our way. As a team.

*rumble* *rumble* the thunder woke all of us up. I got up scratching my head, I scanned the room and everyone was also woken up by the thunder 'that was very loud' I thought to myself.

"looks like all of us fell asleep huh," Chase yawn.

Grant and Stacy stood up, did a little stretching since they were cuddling "that thunder ruined my dream," Stacy pouted. Grant head to the bathroom.

Though what time is it anyway, Chase looked up and said "it's already 8am in the morning!!!!"

"ehh?!?! Did all of us really fell asleep that long??" I yelled.

"we can't blame ourselves, we were stressed out last night," Ashley added.

Grant got out of the bathroom and said "come on let's go Stacy. Let's go to our dorms and take a shower,"

"both of you are going to take a shower together?!!??!" Chase yelled.

"no we're not dumbass!!" Grant yelled.

"yeah, I'm in the mood to do that now," Stacy added.

"so you two did took a shower once together, huh?!?!?!" I replied.

Both of them didn't answered. I'm guessing it's privacy "well anyways since it's just 8am meet us at 10am in front of the school. Laters," Grant spoke.

Jack, Zayn and Michael also followed them, they waved at us.

Dean stood up and also headed to the door and said "I'm heading out too, see you all later,"

Even though its raining a good cold shower wouldn't hurt. I stood up and called Ashley "let's go take a quick shower Ashley,"

"sure!!" she replied.

As we were walking in the long hallways of our dorms, we headed to our room but as always it seems like no one is walking around. It's always a ghost town when we walk in the hallway. Though maybe people were just shy to even come out of their rooms, being stuck in your room isn't so bad.

We were walking along through the hallway, Ashley is humming a song. Suddenly I remembered something in the room that Ashley bought, "hey Ashley, did you bought that flashlight on our table??" I asked.

She looked at me and said "oh yeah, I totally forgot about that. Since we are investigating we will need a light source right??"

"you're totally right. You're prepared for this huh??" I replied.

"well, when anyone doesn't want to talk about what's happening. Might as well do it yourself right?" she added.

"of course but who is this you're talking about??" I asked.

She looked down while walking and said "it's my aunt, she won't tell us anything about what's happening even though we were just involve in an accident,"

"maybe she's just doing it to protect the both you," I answered trying to cheer her up.

"she answered our question yesterday, though she only said is. You're free to investigate anywhere. That's all," she replied.

"oh... So she's definitely leaving it to us then," I smiled at her.

"I hope so," she replied.

I just got out of bath with a towel on my head and on my body. Ashley went in the bathroom, after that I changed in my clothes that I bought at the mall. A black t-shirt with pink stripes paired with a long black pants with red stripes. I do look pretty cool in it and it just fits me perfectly. Since we are also staying at night time there, might as well blend in. Running shoes just in case we got caught or something.

I prepared my backpack and put a lot of stuff in it, first aid, snacks and beverages. A binocular I bought from the mall as well and a camera. Might as well test it if it works. I headed to the balcony, it's still raining but it's not worse as yesterday was. I saw someone running I took a pic of her. A girl wearing a red hat and PE clothes on a Saturday, huh shit definitely gets weirder. I stored the camera inside my backpack since it's kinda heavy wearing it around my neck.

'9:00am, we still got an hour to meet up with them,' I thought to myself. I Looked down and stared at my pants, I look cool in this. Tried to look at the back of my shirt, realized there was a mirror on the wall at the other side of the room, beside the door. Walk towards to it to look at myself with this clothes on.

When I looked at myself in the mirror. I saw a girl with sparkling sapphire colored eyes, a sapphire that had been polished to its fullest beauty. Pale skin color that matches the eyes, like dirt and gemstones. Short and silky hair that dances with the wind.

I looked down at my feet, suddenly tears fall out of my eyes across my cheeks. Hits the carpet. 'this is the first time I've used a mirror in a while. I'm glad that I manage to be worth something and help them.... I won't make the same mistake again' I thought to myself.
