Chapter 2
Meetings & Dates
Everybody in the morning had to catch some transport to get to where they have to be: riches people take their limos, others their cars and others the bus. Sky belonged to the last category: he was used to it. What he wasn't used to, however, was spotting Flynn McCallistair and his best friend Dillon Cooper on one. Flynn could be defined as ok for Sky: they weren't friends but they neither hate each other. Dillon was different: he was the total opposite of Sky; he was a real snob, he loved drugs, alcohol, troubles and having sex with everything human that walk in front of him. Sky has always found him disgusting.
That morning he was complaining about Flynn not having sex with Sydney. When they arrived, all passengers started to walk toward the exit, when both Dillon and Flynn turned to Sky. Dillon glared at him "are you following us?" Sky couldn't believe his ears: both of them had been in the same class for years and he still didn't recognize him "the fact that we're wearing the same uniform doesn't tell you anything?" Dillon kept on glaring at him but didn't say anything: he left him alone sighing.
Meanwhile at school, Krista was giving the cards she made to Sid and her friends. The blond girl looked up and smiled "these are very good! Well done. As I promised, this is for you" she said giving the girl her invite. Krista smiled at her: this was the first step to become someone for her. As they were talking, Bridge walked out of the school and got near them "hey! I looked for you everywhere" he said but didn't notice the look he was getting from everybody near Sid: the girl still didn't know why he was back, and obviously she wasn't happy with it "Gosh sorry, I'm Bridge" he said turning to Krista, who gave him a friendly smile, the first one since he was back "so, when is the party?" Sid looked at him with a sorry look "I'm sorry Bridge, but you're not invited. I mean, you would have been, but we didn't know you were coming back before last night" everybody nodded. Bridge wasn't stupid: he knew what Sid was doing "Ok, I have something to do" he walked away but, halfway toward the door, he turned back "Sid can we met tonight?" the girl looked up and smiled "I'm sorry, I have something to do with Flynn tonight and-""Flynn will wait, come to the hotel at 8" he said and walked away. If the girl wanted to play that card it was fine for him. He could play it too.
After a long day at school, Sky received a SOS text on his phone from her sister. He rushed to the place she told him. When he was there, he couldn't believe what he was looking at: it was a huge mall. He shook his head and made his way in: he found his sister trying a dress "please tell me you didn't call me to help you picking up a dress…" "Yeah I did! You know that dad is allergic to this things and mum is on the other side of the country so, red or black?" she said holding up two different dresses. He sighed smiling "red" he nodded: if they didn't have the same views of what they life should be, she could always count on his brother "I'm not going to buy it however, I will make it for myself. Oh look it's Bridge!" she said pointing to the stairs, where Bridge was coming toward them with a young boy. Sky panicked: Bridge couldn't see him. He hid in the first changing room he found empty. Bridge smiled at Krista "ehy! You're Krista right? This is my brother, Conner" he said pointing to the small boy near him. Krista looked confused: she doesn't even know he had a brother "Hi! I'm Krista and this is-" She said turning behind her but didn't found nobody "this is no one since I'm here alone…" both boys looked at each other: she was crazy for them. The girl got to her bag and took out a card "Bridge this is for you, but if they ask you where you got this, you don't know me" Bridge looked down at it and saw it was an invite to Sid's party "thanks" he said smiling. Both boys walked away waving at her. Krista turned back and saw Sky walking out from a changing room embarrassed "don't you dare laugh…"
That night, Bridge found himself at the hotel bar alone drinking after a long talk with Sid. He sighed: apparently, the girl hadn't forgiven him for going away without telling anybody. He actually couldn't blame her "I have to tell my father that they serves alcohol to minors in his hotel" a voice behind him said making him turn. He found Dillon smirking behind him "true. I think if they serves you you also have to tell him that they serves pigs" "I like when you're cruel with me" you just like the fact that I'm talking with you" Dillon nodded "true, but I think it would be better if you don't talk and get into action" "wow…. I miss your face. I always wanted to hit something when I was away" Dillon laughed "yeah I bet. And I think that what you did with Flynn before going away was scary enough for you…" at that, Bridge froze. No one knew that "how do you know it?" he saw Dillon getting near him from the corner of his eye. He felt his breath on his neck "you should know that if you don't lock the door someone could walk in" Bridge's mind flew to that night: his encounter with Flynn, both of them drinking, and they having sex. He was ashamed of it. It was one of the reason he run away "Dillon, do whatever you want, but please don't tell Sidney this" "he won't. Because I've already heard of it" both of them turned and saw Sid crying angry behind them "don't you ever come near us again Carson, or I will destroy you" she said before storming away. Bridge glared at Dillon before running toward her but he collided with someone on his way "sorry!" he said without looking at who he collided with. If he had look back, he would have noticed a blue eyes guys looking at him: Sky had made up his courage and went to the hotel to meet him but, apparently, it wasn't the right night. Before going away, he spotted a mobile on the floor: bridge had lost it when they crushed into each other. He smiled widely: maybe it could have another chance.
In fact, next day he went back to the hotel: He was going to meet Bridge. He came in smiling like an idiot, but it faded when he started talking to the man at the front desk "how do you know if this is Mr. Carson's? And if you aren't a guest in this hotel, what are you doing here?" his eyes widened in shock "listen, when prince charming found Cinderella's shoe he wasn't accused of being a foot fetish right?" the man laughed "and you supposed to be the prince charming here?" Sky looked at him with a blanked look "let's see if you're right here's Bridge. Mr. Carson?" the man called making Sky panicking again "no! What are you doing? He doesn't know me! No one does and it's ok because-" "Ehi! I'm sorry for yesterday…" both Sky and the man turned confused toward a smiling Bridge. Sky turned back at the man and smirked "you see? He knows me" the man glared at Sky and handed the phone back to Bridge "oh! So you found it! Thank you very much" Sky blushed when Bridge hugged him: he was waiting for this moment for a long time and he couldn't believe a phone was all he needed for it.
Bridge saw his mum walking toward them and let the guy go: apparently, she wasn't ok with him hugging a guy "hi honey, I bought you something for Sid's party. I saw the invitations on you bedside table" Bridge started scratching his head worried " actually I'm not going because I have already planned to do something with… well… him" he said pointing to his right. The woman turned where he was pointing and saw Sky yawning loudly. When he saw both of them looking at him, he reddened for the embarrass "hello Mrs. Carson I'm Skyler Tate. We're actually going to…" he started thinking of something while he put his hands in his coat's pockets. He found a leaflet his father's gave him "… to a rock concert! Some old bands from the 90s are going to play there" Bridge nodded as her mother looked at them bored "it was a good way to announce that you're back in town. That means I'm going to use this thing for myself" she said before going away. The boy turned to Sky "thanks you saved me" sky just nodded and walked away, but stopped when he heard Bridge talking again to him "so, you picking me up at 8?" the guy turned with wide eyes "you really want to go out with someone you don't know?" Bridge smiled at him "trust me… you can't be worse than the people I know"
That was it. They found themselves laughing and chatting about everything that night. Sky even introduced Bridge to his father after rehearsal. The magic, however, was broken when Sky got a text message from his sister. He ignored it but, when the second one got to his phone, he sighed and read it. Bridge smiled "you got a better offer?" "No. it's my sister, she is at the party and have some problem with someone called Dillon I got to go" Bridge paled hearing that name "I'm coming with you: if Dillon it's involved, you really have to worry for her". They found themselves looking for Krista at Sid's party. Bridge ignored the looks he got from everybody once again. He even saw Sid glaring at him with Flynn near her: he saw a hurt look on the boy's face. He knew Sid had confronted him, and God only knew what she had told him. After a while of searching, they found the girl on the roof with Dillon, who was trying to have a way with her "KRISTA!" Sky shouted making Dillon breaking his grip on the girl. As she run to Bridge and started sobbing into his arms, his brother confronted her aggressor "you son of a-""what the hell is your problem?? It's a party relax. Things happen. And by the way who the fuck are you??" that made Sky even more angry "how many times do I have to tell you?? I'm Sky Tate we go to the same school. AND THAT IT'S MY LITTLE SISTER!!" he finished punching hard Dillon's face. He then went near his sister as Bridge approached Dillon "don't you even touch her again!!". He then grabbed Sky's and Krista's arms and made his way out of the party but not before hearing Dillon shouting at him "Your life is over! I know what you did!".
When they were out of the building, they called a taxi "So, do you think I can get another shot for a second date?" sky asked hopefully Bridge "well, I actually think this was one of the best I've had" "but I punched someone…" "That's why I said that" both of them laughed as they climbed into the car. Luckily for them, they didn't saw Sid and Dillon watching them from a window "he better not show up again…" "I actually hope that he will" both of them looked at each other and smiled evilly. If they could work together, they'll for sure destroy Bridge and his new friend. And that's what they're planning to do.
What will happen next? Will Bridge survive Sid and Dillon's anger? Only one way to find out…. STAY TUNE!
