IMPORTANT A/N:
This chapter was briefly part of Chapter 20 but has been rearranged into this short but sweet mini chapter. It picks up right where Chapter 20 left off. Sorry for the long delay; I was busy with prom & graduation, etc., but now I'm jobless, don't start college until the end of August (although I have orientation on Friday the 13th...yikes!) and Corrie recently provided some pretty juicy drama, so expect a rapid flurry of updates soon. Thanks for the reviews - I them ( & my loyal readers!!)
CHAPTER 21:
Unforunately, they didn't get very far before they were both dragged into an empty class room.
Caleb's eyes flashed black and he managed to take down his attacker with one hit and pulled Sarah's flailing hand, yanking her to him from the arms that held her captive and took a defensive stance before her.
"Jeez, Caleb! You coulda killed Tyler!" Betsy admonished, dropping to her knees next to the body of her co-kidnapper, focused on the injured Son and completely missing Caleb's eye color returning to normal as he relaxed, recognizing his attackers.
"God, Caleb!" Tyler glared up at him, a bruise rapidly covering half of his face.
"What-!" Sarah broke off, voice squeaking with stress. Tyler's glare faded, and he chuckled.
"I don't think we should have just dragged them in." He said to Betsy.
"Yeah, but it was more dramatic!" Betsy countered, helping him sit up.
"What... what are you doing?" Caleb asked hesitantly, dropping to one knee and helping Tyler into a desk to sit.
"We wanted to talk to you about something." Tyler explained.
"Something big." Betsy nodded emphatically.
"We kind of already know." Sarah said gently.
"You know? How do you know? We haven't talked to anybody about it yet." Betsy asked, confused, and glared down at Tyler. "You told her, didn't you!"
"No! I don't know how they know! YOU probably told, or sleep-said it or something!" He shot back.
"Oh, yeah! Just because one time I fell asleep and started talking you think I do it all the time? That was one time, after a 14 hour swimming invitational and it was because I sucked up half the pool and chlorine makes me sleep funny!"
"You know what? As fun as this is, class is going to start in about three minutes, so can you get to the point?" Caleb asked, glancing at his watch, adrenaline still pumping through his system.
"Our point is that we want to get Corrie and Pogue together. So we were thinking..."
"So let me get this straight. You two," Sarah waggled her fingers between Betsy and Tyler, "Are NOT dating, but are trying to get Pogue and Corrie together. Corrie and Pogue aren't dating but are trying to get the two of you together?"
"Really?" Betsy asked, intrigued. "Why did you think we were dating and why are they trying to set us up?"
"Cor and I, sort of, uh, kinda saw Tyler leaving your room the other day and may have drawn some conclusions..." Sarah looked down at her feet, blushing, and toyed with Caleb's hand, still clasped in her own.
Betsy's eyes got big, and Tyler blushed.
"NOTHING happened." Betsy said embarrassedly.
"We were just talking!" Tyler exclaimed, shooting a glance at Betsy.
"Well, you looked kind of, um, rumpled." Sarah explained timidly.
"Because I was in there for like 3 hours!"
"THAT'S WHAT HE SAID!" The other three shot Betsy a look. "What? We were all thinking it."
"Nothing happened." Tyler stated firmly.
"Except the blow jobs I gave you." Betsy pointed out.
"Oh, yeah. Except for those." Tyler agreed amiably, watching Sarah and Caleb's eyes get wider and wider.
"My God. How are you friends with Reid and believe all of this?" Betsy asked. "I swear, y'all must think horrible things about me to believe that. Jeez! I'm not that kind of girl! I WAS JOKING!" Betsy huffed as the bell rang. "So, are you in or out?" She asked, adjusting her John Mayer tote bag impatiently.
Sarah and Caleb glanced at each other, slow smiles spreading across their faces.
"We're in..."
