Shane's Prov
Jason's foot tapped impatiently on the wooden floor of my bedroom.
"Jase quit it." I hissed.
"Why are we doing this again?" Nate frowned.
"To get even." Jason answered. "Jeez and you's call me the slow one."
Nate rolled his eyes, "We're gonna get into so much trouble."
"Well, if you don't wana be a part of it then don't come." I said.
Just then a light tap came on my bedroom window, I pulled back the curtains and looked out Will, another member of the team, was throwing pebbles up at the window.
I waved down at him and opened my window carefully so it didn't squeak. I let Jason go first he stepped out on to the porch roof then walked to the side and climbed down the trellis.
I had one leg out the window before looking back at Nate who was shifting back and forth on his heels. "Are you coming?"
He shifted uncomfortably again and let out a sigh before rolling his eyes as he squeezed past me and began climbing out the window. He stopped mid way, "I swear if mum, dad or Mr Mason finds out I'm telling them it was all your idea."

The giggles started as we came to a stop in the parking lot of Madison Model School.
"Sssh." I said, quiet automatically swept over the group. "Who has the locker info?"
"I do." Will smiled. "Courtesy of the Model School website, it tells us exactly whose lockers who's."
"Awesome, you take the guys from the Junior Varsity squad and Nate to do the locker booby traps. Jason you and the guys from our squad do the toilets in the locker rooms." I said handing them a small bag of cherry bombs. "I'm gonna do the fountain booby trap."
With that everyone went in opposite directions.
O.k., so Will said the water pump was in the basement, so I just need to find the basement I thought to myself as a roamed the empty hallways with the washing detergent and wrench in hand.
When I finally found it the door was locked so I picked it using my bank card, I laughed silently at myself I could be a spy instead of a football player when I'm older.
Behind the door, the movement sensitive lights flickered awake lighten up a long stairway. I walked quietly down it and came onto a one way corridor I followed it and soon I was at a dead end that had at least three electricity boxes and a large pipe coming out underneath them.
I knelt down by the pipe above it was a small yellow sign, "Fountain pump." I felt the corners on my lips pull up into a smile as I began to carry out my part of the plan.
*****************************************************************************************
I grabbed my tools and now empty bottle of washing up liquid before making my way back the way I had come.
I was at the top of the stairs when my phone started vibrating in my pocket, I pulled it out of my pocket with one hand as I closed the door with the other, the caller I.D said it was Nate. What did he want? But before I could pick up and ask a strong hand planted me to the spot.
CRAP!

Next Day
Flashback
"Good Evening, Mrs Grey?" The patrol-tech guy asked into the phone.
I cringed slightly as I heard my mother's sleepy response.
"Your son was caught carrying out an act of vandalism in Madison Model School."
I bit back a giggle this rent-a-cop wasn't expecting my mum to ask which one.
"Shane." He clarified. "I need you to collect him."
I heard a mumble on the other end of the phone before the line went dead.
When my parents finally got me the ride home was silent but when we entered the house the ear bashing began.
"Shane, what were you thinking?"
"Do you realise that this could go on your school record? No college will want a criminal."
"I know I'm sorry I really am." I pleaded. "But those lunk heads got us first."
"Shane, really? What sort of argument is that?"
They were right of course and after a number of apologies I was sent to my room as we had a meeting with Mr Mason in the morning.
My brothers were awake and waiting outside their rooms as I made my way upstairs, sorry clear in their eyes. I just smiled weakly at them both before walking into my bedroom and throwing myself on the bed.
End of Flashback
I replayed the night over and over again in my mind as my parents and I sat quietly in the reception area, the disappointment radiating off them. I hated disappointing them.
Mr Mason's chubby face poke around his office door, "Come on through." He smiled, like a shark must smile at its prey before it devours them I thought.
There were three leather seats in front of the huge mahogany desk Mr Mason sat behind. My parents took the two outer seats putting me in the middle.
"Mr and Mrs Grey, I take it you know why you're here?" Mr Mason started.
"We do, we were after all called at twelve last night to pick him up." My dad answered.
"So, you do understand it is my responsibility to punish Shane?"
Both my parents nodded.
"Now before I enforce this punishment, Shane was there anyone else from this school involved?" Mr Mason addressed me for the first time.
My punishment would have been more lenient if I threw my brothers and the rest of team in it but then what sort of leader would I have been? I would have been a hypocrite I was always telling the guys how important it was to be there for your team mates.
"No, sir there wasn't."
"I see" He said looking away from me. "Well your punishment is janitorial work at Madison Model School, for five weeks starting tomorrow after school till five in the evening."
I was about to argue but I held my tongue, "That sounds fair."
He nodded, "The care taker over there will be given myself and the principal of Madison a full report of your work each day. Good bye Mrs and Mr Grey." He smiled standing and shaking my parent's hands.
"Mr Mason." I said turning back around at the door.
"Yes? Mr Grey."
"I'm sorry for going against your wishes."
He nodded and offered me a weak smile before I closed the door behind me.
I walked my parents to the exit of the school.
"Shane." My mum smiled as we got to the exit all traces of disappointment had disappeared. "You handled that very maturely."
"Thanks, but I'm still really sorry for putting you guys through this."
"Don't worry about it." My mum smiled kissing my cheek. "We'll see you at home." She smiled again as she walked towards their car in the parking lot.
My father stayed behind her before whispering to me quickly, "To tell you the truth son I would've done the same thing." He winked at me before following my mother quickly.
I smiled after them before wandering through the empty corridors to the gym might as well run through some plays before school actually starts.
