"What are you in for?" Harleen asks him, quickly trying to slow down her heart and hide the pink tint on her cheeks.

He laughs, sitting up right and leans in close to her. "I spray painted The Walls windows." He grins cheekily.

"You spray painted a walls windows?" Confused she tilted her head and looked at him in disbelief.

"What? How would that make sense?" He shakes his head. "I'm talking about our dear principle Amanda Waller. We call her The Wall."

"Oh." She responded, blushing again. "Why'd you do that?"

He shrugs and sits back. "Thought it would be funny."

"Was it?"

"Oh yeah. You should have seen her face." His eyes stared off, not focusing on anything, probably recounting the moment. He laughs to himself and Harleen realizes she's never once met someone who enjoyed himself so much.

"You're not worried about being suspended or expelled?"

"Pfft. I'd consider it a thank you note from them if they ever expelled me. Sadly they are aware of that and are determined to keep me here." He rolls his eyes. "The Wall doesn't want to give me the satisfaction of that victory. She thinks she can reform me."

"And your parents? What do they think?"

"That's a bit personal for someone you just met." He snapped back at her.

Flinching, Harleen averted her eyes away from him and mumbled an apology.

She heard him sigh. "So what's your name anyways?"

"Um, Harleen Quinzel." She mumbled.

"Harleen Quinzel?" He giggles.

She grits her teeth and glares at him, knowing what's about to come.

"Hey rework that a bit and you get-"

"Harley Quinn, like the clown, I know." She snaps. "I've heard it before."

He sits back and raises two hands up in defense. "I wasn't gonna say anything bad about it. Actually I like it. Harley Quinn." He trails off. "Mind if I call you Harley?"

She shrugs. "Knock yourself out."

"I'm Jack by the way. You can call me just J though." He winks.


Harley sat beside Floyd wrinkling her nose as the food began to rot on their clothing. The milk smelled especially bad and they all sat as far from June as the chairs allowed. Chato sat the closest to her.

In the end when the chaos had been broken up the students of Belle Reve were quick to point out who started the mess. Harley had already made threats to keep her name out of their mouths when it came time to confess. The smarter ones knew to keep quiet; she was more worried about the weak ones.

Chato shifted in his seat uncomfortably as Harley glared at him. He jumped as her bubblegum popped.

"Quit it." Floyd mumbled to her.

She grinned in fake innocence at him. "Don't be such a grumpy grump."

He went back to ignoring her and Harley decided to check her phone, she had texted J what had happened and was anxious to see what he thought.

"Rick! What are you doing here?" June gasped in shock, bringing in every ones attention to her boyfriend.

He knelt in front of her and stroked her cheek. "You don't belong with these people. You didn't do anything wrong. I'm gonna tell Waller to let you go free."

June's eyes glassed over with tears as she stared down in adortion at her boyfriend.

"Fat chance lover boy. I'm pretty sure I heard her scream "food fight"." Harley grinned widely at them.

Rick stood up and glared over at her. "No that was you. All of us heard you. Right guys?" He looked over at Floyd, George, and Waylon.

The three boys looked at Harley who raised an eyebrow.

"It was June." The three responded.

Shocked Rick looked to Chato who averted his eyes quickly. He could feel both Harley's and Ricks eyes burning into his bald head.

"You're names Chato right? I know you're a good kid. You know that Harley started it."

"If he's a smart kid like I think he is he'd remember clearly that it was June who started it. I think I heard J mention him before. I can't quite remember what it was about. Probably good things. Right Chato? J wouldn't have any bad blood with you now would he?"

Chato gulped, officially declaring this the worst day of his life. He knew that if he agreed with Rick, Harley would tell J about him and so far he had managed to stay out of his radar. And he didn't want to change that. But his heart knew that the right thing to do was rat Harley out.

"Kids, Ms. Waller will see you know." The Secretary saved him from possibly ending his life.

The seven teens stood up all glaring at each other before entering the room.
