The party in the woods
A week has passed, the four sat together near the field on the bench. They sat silently until the silence were disrupted by alaric.
"Hey Aiden, I got everything planned and prepared for the party in the woods, you're bringing creole right?,alaric asks.
Aiden glanced at him"Why should I bring her,haven't you guys been talking?".
Alaric sighed," it looks like she's more comfortable with you".
Aiden scoffed," this is new,am doing things am not enjoying,if I continue to be close to her,I'll start hearing rumors,this is the last time am doing this.
Brian laughed,"rumors are already out,people are saying you both are dating,haven't you heard".
"It's all your fault alaric".Aiden said as he stood up
THE PARTY IN THE WOODS
There were vans ,fire litter,students drinking,taking booze, and dancing to the bustling music.
"Will you look at that",alaric approached creole who was standing next to Aiden,"I didn't expect you to come,I thought you'll be at your part time work".
"We'll am here,and I didn't expect to be invited",creole said with a fake smile.
Alaric narrows his eyes at creole with a cold face,"so you help with deliveries at night,right?".
"Of course I do,and I happen to be free this night"
Alaric stared at her with cold eyes,"good".
Aiden turns to creole,"I won't spend much time here,so just go to him,chat and drink and enjoy yourselve".
"What will you be doing?",creole asks.
"I'll just be around",Aiden mutters.
Creole face looked worried.
"Are you scared?,don't worry am watching you,and alaric and brian are here,no one will mess with you",Aiden reassured.
"Aiden don't just lean on the tree,come and join us!","a girl yelled.
But Aiden shoved her words and sat on a log of wood.
His phone rang and he picked it.
" Hello",he answered.
" Is this theo elvis don't,the person asked.
"Yes I am,who is this",looking worried .
"This is hills hospital,your father had an accident".
"What!?,his eyes widens with fear.
Aiden dials the drivers number," Are you close?,we need to go somewhere,hurry!".
IN FRONT OF THE HOSPITAL
Aiden pov
So my dad wasn't in the hospital,I wondered who the bastard son of a bitch dares to pull that prank on me.
I can't believe I fell for it.
" You could have called the master",the driver said.
"Mister,if you heard your son has been in a accident,would calling your son,be the first thing you do?,let's go home",I enter the car.
After we reached,I laid on my bed imagining if my father really died.I don't want my dad or mum to die early,even though we don't talk that much.
I rose from the bed"I felt like am forgetting something,what is it?.I was feeling sleepy and didn't even realize when I had slept.
*********************************
Aiden woke up in the morning,and he remembered he didn't go back to pick creole.And he realized that he didn't have her number.
Creole acted weird,like she's avoiding aiden,she didn't even glance at aiden,they weren't even close but he felt guilty.
He stood and walked to her table,"hey are you avoiding me",he said in a cold tone.
She didn't reply.
I scoffed and dragged her out if the class.
She leans on the wall with her back facing the wall and her hands crossed.
He sunk my hands in my trouser pocket,"the reason for avoiding me".
She looked down at her feet's and didn't reply.
"Seriously?".
He heaved a sigh,"is it because of that party?".
She looked at him with sad eyes.
" So it's it then,I didn't leave you a purpose,and I didn't even have your number to call"
" Didn't alaric give you a ride home,he said he did".
She shifted her eyes from me," The teacher will be here any second,let's go back",trying to go back to the class.
He held her hand and dragged her back.
" Is that it?",heasked looking confused.
"You and your friends are psycho",she said in an aggressive tone and rushed back to the class.
He became angry,furious,frustrated and restless.he loosened my tie and unbuttoned two buttons, because he felt suffocated.
He entered the class,yelled and hit the table,"if you knew I was a psycho,you should have avoided me".
He placed his hands on the table and leaned closer, exhaled and lowered his voice,"I never should have interacted with a low life like you".
He stood upright, brushed his hair backward with his hands,walked back to his chair and sat angrily,trying to calm down.
***********************************
DURING LUNCH TIME
Aiden sat on his chair,looking outside the window,when suddenly he heard a notification sound from his phone.
He unlocked his phone,"a video?".
He looked at the number,it was the same number that called him the other night about his father.
"I want to know the fool that this number belongs to,but still I'll have to see the video",he mutters as he played the video.
After seconds watching the video,he laughed loudly and crazily.The other students in the class who didn't go to the cafeteria looked at him but he still continued.
He didn't even notice when the twins and alaric entered.
"Aiden have you finally gone crazy?"
He raised his head and saw alaric.
He slowly stop laughing,played the video and gave it to him.
It was creole having sex with a man that look like he was in his 50s or 60s but his face was blurred.
Alaric watched the video and dropped the phone on his table forcefully.
"Do you want to break it?",he asks.
Aiden looked at alaric,"you don't look surprise?"
"What did I expect from a low life",alaric muttered.
"Am skipping class",Aiden looks at them," are you staying?"."but brion?"
"Of course I am,why do you think am here?" Brion smirked.
" So where are we going",Aiden asked.
