Here I am. Once again….I'm torn into pieces! Can't deny it can't pretend! Just thought you were the one!
Sorry, kind of got off track there.
But anyway….enjoy the chapter.
Chapter 11
"Petey get back to bed. Or do you want me to give you a goodnight kiss?" Petey looked at me and did a little grin. "Don't even consider it." I laid back on my bed. I was in gray sweat pants with no shirt. I decided to stay the night and then head somewhere. I wonder when they're going to say something about Jimmy's death in the news. The bathroom door opened and walked out Ash. She laid down the remaining clothes Petey gave her on my dresser. She was in a pink spaghetti tank top and black short shorts. She pulled her hair behind her ear and walked up to my bed. She threw back the covers and laid down. She left the covers down. I scooted closer to her. I could hear Petey sigh and turn over. I turned my head to Ash.
I guess Ash must have noticed because she pulled the covers up to her chin and turned her back to me. I frowned as I pulled the covers up on my side also. I inched closer to her and placed my forehead on the back of her head. I breathed on her neck. "Ash," I whispered. "Tell me why you hate Bullworth so much."
"If you stop breathing on my neck like a stalker I will." I instantly stopped. Ash turned on her back and sighed. "It all started when my parents met at Bullworth. They were preps, not inbred, and they fell in love. When the both graduated, my dad proposed to my mom. She happily accepted and they ran away to Vegas. Yea, total preps." She laughed. "Well, I better get past that I'm related to Derby Harrington. So anyway, when my parents came back they bought a house in Old Bullworth Vale. Two years later, my mom had me.
"Everyday since I was seven, my parents took me to the boxing gym and let me train with Derby. He was ten. We trained everyday until we were both champions, well, in our parents' eyes. Then, I was eleven. My parents enrolled me into Bullworth. I went there for a couple of days until I got expelled for my parent's becoming poor and couldn't pay for the school bills and crap. Truth is, Crabblesnitch robbed us. We had to live among the townies for months. I blamed my parents for me getting expelled. I didn't know anything. Remember, I was 11. I couldn't stand living with that scum, so I snapped. I turned around and killed both of my parents. I didn't mean to, their was something in me that got out of control. Before the cops took me, I picked up the last thing my father had was a knife he always carried around. I kept it with me.
"Well, the cops didn't want to put me in the Juvenile Detention Facility so they sent me to Happy Volts. I've been there until yesterday when I broke out…and met you."
She stopped and remained quiet. I turned my head to face her and slid an arm around her waist and pulled her closer. She rested her head on my chest. "Goodnight Ash."
"Goodnight Gary."
Then we drifted off to sleep in each other's arms.

I woke up the following morning feeling like hell. I felt like I didn't get that much sleep. Petey was at his desk writing. Petey got up and walked to the door. "I'm going to class." Petey looked at me once more before walking out the room. I yawned and put my arms behind my head. Ash had her arms around my waist. She was laying on my stomach. I smiled and closed my eyes. Ash's grip flexed and then relaxed. She opened up her eyes and looked up at me. She smiled.
"Good morning." She then looked at where her arms were and quickly withdrew them. She stood up in bed and stretched. I propped myself up with my elbow. Ash turned her back her and got up to the clothes pile. She took off her pink tank top t reveal a black bra. She fell back on the bed to look at me upside down. I looked at her strangely.
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Thinking. Where did that girl go?"
"What girl?"
"Your roommate. Where did she go?"
"First, it's a he. Second, he went to class."
"What are we going to do?"
"Probably walk the campus. See if any one heard any news about us."
"Won't we get caught?"
"Didn't think about that. Let's just think about it when it happens."
Ash nodded. She sat straight up and turned her body to face me. She placed a hand on my cheek and smiled. "How could I end up with you?" She got up. Someone actually gave me a compliment! Me. Gary Smith. Ash put on a white tank top that tied to behind her neck. She took off her shorts and replaced them with plain jeans.
I put on a gray Bullworth hoodie (since my blue one had my shoulder completely torn out) and a pair of a worn-out jeans. I put some Neosporin on my shoulder and grabbed a jacket for Ash. I handed it to her. "Put this on, you can't look to revealing."
Ash yanked it from my hands and slipped it on. "Put your hood on so you can hide your face." Ash nodded and pulled the hoodie close to her face. "Let's go. And don't be seen by prefects. Be careful and follow me!"

The bright light blinded Jimmy. He looked around. He was in Crabblesnitch's office. Damn. Jimmy looked at what was on his desk. There was a newspaper in his direction. Jimmy leaned over and read the top story. 'Bullworth student suspected in student's death.'
"That's total crap." Jimmy mumbled as he scanned the article. He stopped at one part. They had interviewed his mother! 'I always knew he was a rotten child. That's why I sent him to Bullworth. I thought the school system could straighten him right. But instead they turn him onto a murderer! If the authorities ask me what I would do to him, I would send his ass to Happy Volts Asylum, no question.'
"I thought that would inform you about the recent events that you missed." Jimmy turned around. Crabblesnitch came in with two cops. He sat at his desk, the cops were standing guard. "I suppose you heard that you could go to Happy Volts. Its in my hands."
"Sir, I didn't kill Gary Smith."
"I don't want to heard any of that nonsense boy. I have my mind made up."
"I didn't kill him. Any of that crap you that is bull shit! They don't have any proof!"
"They have all the proof they need. You had his blood on your hands. And they have a murder weapon with Smith's blood all over it!"
"What about fingerprints?"
"Don't try to change the subject Hopkins! You are to go to Happy Volts Asylum in a week. You may go." The two cops went behind Jimmy and lead him out of the office.
Jimmy shook his head as he went out of the building. He sat on a stone bench watching as people stopped and stared at him. There was a group of kids pointing and talking in hushed tones to their group they were in. Jimmy rolled his eyes and turned his head in the other direction.
Jimmy smiled. There, right in front of him, was his ticket out of Happy Volts. Gary Smith himself.
