(A/N: This is part 2 of my M rated SnT (I'm getting soooo lazy typing that out. tied in 'Interruptions.' It can be read as a suggestive high T standalone without the first part, or can be read as written as a part two. Since it isn't a full M for this part, I figured what the hell, might as well post it here too since it's kinda funny.

Never tried writing in this style before but figured it would be a fun way to branch out. This chapter is pretty much heavy T/low M due to swearing and vulgarity in general. Prepare for a dread 'texting' chapter!

Oh and since I forgot about him, Cherit ditched classes and decided to wander around Venice again. Because first day lectures are soooooo boring for 10,000 year old Titans.

PS– Props to anyone who gets the little reference for what Zhalia is stored under in Dante's contacts.)

Interruptions

Part 2:

Aftermath

Lok finally stopped running when he reached the outer buildings of the Academy. Part of him was worried that Zhalia had sent Gareon after him, and he checked his surroundings as he pulled out his phone.

He had an hour for lunch, so he still had half an hour left. Not long enough to raid Sophie's townhouse for food, but definitely long enough to see if he could keep from getting his liver ripped out tonight.

He sent a quick text to his girlfriend, hoping that she wasn't in the library with her phone off.

Across campus, Sophie put down her sandwich and pulled her phone out of her pocket at its telltale buzz.

From: Lok the Stunningly Handsome Hero

Hey could I mayB stay over your place tonite?

Sophie frowned slightly, and not just because Lok had managed to unlock her phone and change his contact name again. Despite their growing relationship, Lok rarely stayed over at her townhouse, even in a separate room, unless Dante's house was trashed in an attack. LeBlanche and Santiago tended to shoo him out the door with brooms and bo staffs if they caught wind of it.

From: Princess Sophie

I'm not against it, but why? Is everything okay at Dante's?

Lok groaned and slid down the wall to sit heavily with his backpack in his lap. He really didn't want to be caught by his mentors telling anyone what he saw. Then again, if he didn't have a fully LeBlanche proof reason to spend the night he'd probably be picking broom straw out of his hair and sleeping on Dante's roof.

He took a breath and picked his words carefully.

From: Lok the Stunningly Handsome Hero

I might have interrupted somthng when I went to get my lunch frm Dante's. And I don't want my obituary read 'killed by Venomhand toxins after being punched into local canal.'

Sophie's frown deepened. What on earth was that boy talking about?

From: Princess Sophie

Lok, you're not making any sense.

A hollow 'thunkthunkthunk' sounded in the young Seeker's ears as he gently whacked the back of his head against the bricks behind him. And people said he was clueless when it came to these things.

Okay, well, yeah, he kinda was, but he was starting to learn. Having his first girlfriend and living around Zhalia's vulgar, no holds barred potty mouth was taking care of that.

No way around it though. Lok couldn't help the wince as he hit send.

From: Lok the Stunningly Handsome Hero

I walked in on D and Z almost having sex on the wall next to the door, okay? I used Farslip to get in b/c I thought the spare key was lost and I think Z'll try to kill me if I show up tonite.

Sophie nearly choked on her most recent bite of sandwich. Well that was a good reason to avoid Dante's place today.

In one of the many auditorium style classrooms, Den deftly slipped his phone from the side pocket of his cargos and slid it onto his knee. The damn thing had been buzzing like crazy. He was about to tell Lok off for trying to get him caught texting on his first day when he saw the ongoing conversation.

No. Way.

The elder twin shoved his phone back in his pocket and jabbed Harrison in the ribs with an elbow as he quickly started gathering his belongings. "Dude, get your stuff." He hissed, ignoring his brother's quiet protests. The class was nearly over anyway and since it was history he figured they could afford to miss the childish review lecture on Greek mythos. They were Seekers for chrissake; they knew that stuff by heart.

"Uh, sorry, sister says there's a family emergency." Den hurriedly lied to the professor's ugly glare. "Sorry, 'scuse us, just going to slip by you here…." He grabbed Harrison's arm and practically dragged him from the room and around the corner.

"Den, what's wrong?" Harrison dug his heels in when Den tried to take him further down the outdoor hall and settled for being steered into an alcove. "Is Zhalia okay?"

He couldn't help it anymore. Den pushed his phone into his brother's hands and doubled over laughing. Harrison's eyes got wider and wider as he scrolled through the messages, jaw nearly dropping to the cobbled ground.

"Dude!"

Den wiped tears from his eyes. "I know, right?" He stifled another round of giggles and gestured for his phone. "Here, wait, I don't think he even– Ah, god this is just too much."

From: Den the Sass Master

Nice going Lok. Did they let u get ur lunch? XD

Lok raised an eyebrow when Den texted him. How did he know he had forgotten his lunch?

From: Den Fears (Older Twin)

Nice going Lok. Did they let u get ur lunch? XD

Sophie did a double take as well. Den hadn't been in their chat. A nagging suspicion took shape in her mind, but she ignored it.

Meanwhile, Lok typed out a quick reply, too disturbed to dwell on the Fears boys butting in.

From: Blondie McHeropants

Uh… no?

"Oh my god, he has no clue!" Harrison joined his brother in laugher, reading the response over his shoulder. "Zee is going to kill him!"

"I can't hold it back anymore, once he gets it he'll be the one freaking out." Den rolled up his sleeves and extravagantly typed out what would be the second most horrifying revelation of Lok's day.

From: Den the Sass Master

Dude ur sending these in the TEAM chat. Dante and Zee r getting them 2

Tho theyre prob 2 busy 2 notice rn. XDDD

"WHAT?!" Lok dropped his phone in horror, gripping the sides of his head. "No no no no no! I'm so dead!"

From: Lok the Stunningly Handsome Hero

Sophie! Tell mum and Cathy I love them. And tell Zhalia to kill me in a fancy way so my obit is true to someone of my heroic accomplishments.

Sophie rolled her eyes and started collecting her things for her next class.

From: Princess Sophie

You're such a drama queen.

I'll tell her to do it with a paperclip just for that.

Lok whimpered, putting his head in his hands. Today was not his day.

A few hours later Zhalia rolled over in Dante's bed and grabbed her phone from the nightstand. It was past time the twins were supposed to message her about their first day at the prep school.

Instead she found some rather interesting texts in the team group chat.

"Hey, Dante?" She called out. The elite Seeker appeared at the door to the master bathroom, toweling off his hair. "Can I kill Lok with a paperclip?"

Dante paused, considering the boy's accomplishments as a Seeker and how they weighted against nearly costing him the best sex of his life so far. It was a hard choice. "…No?"

His partner lifted her phone for him to see. "Sophie said I should kill him with a paperclip." She lowered it again to continue reading. "I mean, it's totally possible. Just messy. Cleanup is tough." She finished typing out a message and smirked as Dante sat beside her on the bed. "Check your phone. Things have gotten weird while we were busy."

Curious, Dante complied just as her message went through to his phone.

From: The Woman

Just so you all are aware, yes, we got your messages.

Also, Lok has a new contact name. Say hi to Cockblock Lok and tell him I won't kill him because Dante reminded me that not killing you guys is why I'm here. In his bed. Very satisfied. ;}

At Sophie's townhouse, the Casterwill heiress checked her phone and let out a giggle, hand flying to her mouth as she saw the text from 'ZM (Icy Bitch).' She had to hand it to the former spy, she could be very creative if the situation called for it.

Harrison looked up from his calculus syllabus at the sound of Sophie's laughter. He was trying to carefully forge Zhalia's signature in pencil to avoid a fiasco like Lok's by asking her to sign it, and put two and two together when he saw Sophie looking at her phone. He whipped his phone out and yelled, "Hey bro! Lok! I think Zee just texted back!"

Sure enough, a message from the contact 'Zee Badass' had sprung up in his team chat.

Den's raucous laughter erupted from the kitchen. "Nice move, Cockblock!" This was followed by a sharp smacking sound as Santiago threw a broken bit of bo staff at the teen for using such language in front of LeBlanche of all people. "Ow! Hey, Soph, call your ninja off! Ow! Santiago, I'll sic my sister on you! OW! Cut it out, jeez!"

Lok's yell could be heard throughout the massive home as he read the text.

"OH, COME ON!"
