Following the incident to happen in the school corridor a few days prior. Seth had stayed true to his silent unspoken promise and stayed at Morgan's side until she woke. His familiar smile appeared when she moaned before looking around in confusion, he'd been quick to offer her a cold bottle of water, her mother had placed on her bedside table. At her quiet request, he stayed with her for the night, merely nipping home to fetch some clothes for the next day and something to sleep in. although Morgan's brother Chris had offered to lend him something. Maddy on the other hand only made snide comments before vanishing back into her room with a slam of the door.
The following when the group of mix and match students were at school, they took up their normal spot in the home room. Quickly noticing Eva, Charlotte and Mariah missing, although none questioned it. Rosa and Kaitlyn however sat with the cheerleaders, neither acting as if anything was amiss, instead they seemed happier, back to how they were mere months before hand. Most of the student body acted as if nothing was wrong, instead going about their daily business with their normal attitude to school life. Some with excitement, some in a hurry to get to class where as others in a hurry to go anywhere but to class. Yet before either of them knew it Michael Cole had entered the room, his laptop bag hanging from his shoulder, folders under his arm and a coffee mug in hand, the normal joke played when he sat on a whoopy cushion. The same I hate you look sent to the students responsible, before a chuckle escaped him.
"You may have noticed Charlotte Flair, Eva Marie and Mariah Skye are missing. This is due to an incident taking place a few days prior. Both Charlotte and Eva have been excluded for the next few weeks. Miss Skye on the other hand was expelled for her actions, both past and planned" announced Michael Cole, confirming the rumours of Mariah being expelled from the school as well as an incident taking place days before hand that caused the cancellation of the senior year pictures. Although the tutor didn't dear say the rest of the punishment the two girls had received, or that Rosa too was punished for her role but had gotten a lighter one due to her being the one to inform the headmaster of the event and everything else Mariah had planned to do. Even giving the notebooks with the plans in. Following the announcement the tutor carried on as normal. A few pranks here and there and the normal social groups talking, occasionally mixing with others. Yet Seth had something else planned for the regular scheduled tutor period. With a smirk on his lips he put his distraction into motion.
"Hey, can I have everyone's attention" loudly exclaimed Seth, as he stood up on the desk at the back of the classroom, ensuring he had a steady balance before he continued on. If only so he didn't fall and embarrass himself as he'd done before in Math class. His smirk only grew upon noticing he'd also caught Michael Cole's attention as well. "As you all know the big event of senior prom is coming up. Like an idiot I've left it to last minute to find a date" uttered Seth. AJ giggling to his side as Punk did, both knowing the normally reserved teenager had been planning the moment for a week or so now, intending to do his version of memorable. Although anyone doubted whether they could beat Edge asking Beth to prom by singing her favourite song in the cafeteria at peak time. "Morgan, I know you're not one to dress up, but would you make an exception for this one night and be my date to prom?" asked Seth, jumping from the table with enthusiasm. Getting down on his knees before the midnight haired teen as if begging her to agree. Even holding her hands as if she was a princess he'd asked for a favour before battle.
"Of course" muttered Morgan, as she attempted to keep her comment to herself, yet she knew the others teenage girls would be the same. "I wouldn't miss you guys dressed up with terror in your eyes for anything" commented the midnight teen, hearing a few cheers from the girls, agreeing with her. Seth soon offered her the smile she loved to see, before gently pulling her into himself, wrapping her in a tight hug before spinning in a circle, ending with both falling over, much to the amusement of those around them. One of the cheerleaders mentioning everyone in their tutor had a prom date now, that comment alone causing AJ and Summer to look around to Dolph, Adam and Sheamus with curiosity. Neither of the teenage girls recalling the trip mention they'd found dates or even considered taking someone.
The remainder of the school day was filled with the normal boring things. The casual walk down the corridors and spying into rooms, conversations and jokes being pulled. A few times when the first years gained enough confidence and speak to a few of them. There was the occasional game of dodge ball or childish games on the sports fields as those of senior year attempted to enjoy what time they had left at as students. Although most of them were cooped up in the library, studying for their final exams. Those apart of the wrestling team had been informed of their opponents for the tournament finals in two weeks time, as well as where it would be and any other information surrounding it. Booker also mentioning the students of the team would be needed for a few things over those weeks.
"What do you suppose to future will hold?" casually spoke Adrian, curious what those apart of his social group thought would be in the future. He knew each of them had a desire to wrestle, hence why they attended the prestigious school, yet he wondered if they would all succeed or if they would all end up in the same company at the same time. Although he suspected they'd each make a name for themselves, he doubted whether it would be in the same promotion or even in wrestling. He knew if Summer wanted to own her own business one day, like Emma wanted to settle down have a family of her own, even AJ wanted to do something outside of wrestling. Yet the one thing he hoped for, was they stayed in contact and kept their friendship going, no matter where they ended up. He had faith it would happen, as those in his social group weren't just his friends, they were his second family, people he was proud to call as such.
"Hopefully our hard work paying off" responded Morgan as she sat near the top of the bleachers, yet she knew the path each of them had chosen, would be difficult and have challenges and trials they'd all have to face and over come. If only so they could say they did and become better people because of it. Seth soon appeared behind her, sitting behind her with arms carefully wrapped around her waist, in a similar manner to how Punk did with AJ. There he placed a gentle kiss on her cheek, being rewarded with a smile and wink. "Beard conditioner" commented the midnight haired teen, laughter escaping her as Seth responded by rubbing his stubbled cheek against her one.
"I've got to ask, but who are you lot taking to prom?" questioned Layla, the curiosity finally getting the better of her. She'd been trying to work it out for some time now. Knowing the couples were going together, where as Adrian had also announced he'd be taking his neighbour in Bayley, using the occasion as a reason a distraction from the tough time she'd been going through and also prepare her for the school she too hoped to one day attend. Just like they knew Roman had asked his childhood friend to be his date. Yet it still intrigued her to know whom Adam, Dolph, Sheamus even Randy would be taking to the big event. Especially when neither of them had mentioned it or even put their thoughts into the conversations, instead just listening and nodding.
"Come on Lay. You know I'm going with Jo-Jo" commented Randy, reminding the English brunette, he'd asked the smallest teen in their year, a few weeks into the first semester. The smaller teen had also been his date to the school football game and Homecoming. Yet even he was surprised upon learning Roman had asked another outside his then girlfriend in Mariah. Although he was also curious about the date, all the rest of them knew was her name of Galina and she was a childhood friend of the Samoan teen. The attention soon turned to Sheamus, Adam and Dolph, all three teens looking to each other, as if they had the ultimate prank going, one that no one had worked out or seen coming. Yet neither of the trio answered, instead smirked to the question being directed at them.
"Don't worry about me rosebuds. You'll meet my date the week of prom" announced Adam, at least suggesting he had found himself a date, even when he didn't seem overly bothered if he didn't have one, like Sheamus he seemed more than happy to attend with his big group of friends and enjoy the time with them. Adam's smirk soon softened as she remembered the girl in question, how they had crashed into each other one night, back when he was apart of the partier social group, the pair had hit it off and stayed in contact. They talked every day, although both looked to the weekends when they could see each other in person. As any couple would.
Following school that day. Seth and Morgan walked to the park close to the group tree house. As normal they ended up on the swings, slowly rocking back and forth as they found themselves deep in conversation. As if on cue Summer and Dean joined the pair, avoiding the little kids running around the parks playground, some of which trying to run up the slide, only to fail and slip back down. The two pairs stayed in their spot for a few hours, watching as the playground got quieter and quieter as they spoke. Upon the playground being void of all life, the four made their way there, Summer and Morgan playing around on the monkey bars, occasionally going down the slide, where as Seth and Dean climbed to the top of the metal castle structure, sitting on the roof, continuing their conversations while also watching both girls act childish.
Yet in the moments following the leggy blonde began to whisper something to the midnight haired teen. Her words causing a mischievous grin to appear on Morgan's lips as her eyes come alight in a similar way. The two teenagers soon moved to stand at the bottom of the castle, a playful glint in there eyes as they looked at the two boys sat upon on it. Seth and Dean could only wonder what the pair were up to, but assumed they'd find out in the moments to come. Seth originally suspecting the pair of teen girls had finally thought of something for the normal round of challenges the small group of four normally took part in. Where as Dean believed the pair were playing some sort of joke, as retribution for the prank played on them mere days prior.
"Catch us if you can" called both Summer and Morgan, as they took off in a sprit towards the small wooded area. There the pair of girls come across the steep hill, to which Summer quickly unbuckled her sandals and began to climb up the steep incline, envying Morgan in those moments, as the darker haired teen wore Doc Martians that day, as she did most days. Once the two girls reached the top, the listened for a few short seconds, before running off in opposite directions. By the time they did Seth and Dean had reached the bottom of the steep incline, just in time to see the shadowy figures go off in opposite directions. As if Summer and Morgan had planned for it.
"I'll take the right" voice Seth, although he had no idea which was it. He hoped he'd chosen the side Morgan had gone off to, while also fighting back his curiosity on what the girls were up to, not that he didn't enjoy the chase. Dean soon nodded before they began to climb the steep hill, turning off in the separate directions half way up, with the hopes of finding the runaway girls faster. Or at least figure out where they'd hidden faster. Although both knew the trek down the hill would be far more difficult than getting up it. "Meet you at the bottom" called the two two toned teenager, as they turned off, hoping all four would make it down in one piece, much like he began to pray there was an easier way down the steep incline, although he doubted there would be.
Mere minutes later, Dean managed to find one hiding in the bushes near the area both girls had parted, initially believing he'd found Summer, he jumped in the bushes wrapping his arms around his arms around her. Only to get a fail of silky midnight hair whip across his face, knowing he'd caught Morgan rather than Summer, although he grinned suspecting Seth had received the same surprise if he'd found Summer or when he found her. The lunatic teen soon turned Morgan to face him, quickly catching on to the playful grin and realising the girls had likely planned it, either switching sides when the boys had turned off or being able to predict their move before going in separate directions.
"Alright Little Miss Demon. Time to return you to you prince" commented Dean before lifting Morgan over his shoulder. He knew Seth would have likely found Summer by now, after all she always hid in the most predictable places, hide and seek being one game she was terrible at. Morgan on the other hand only offered a playful yell at the gesture of being over someone's shoulder, although placing her trust in the lunatic teen. Her laughter following shortly after the yell, as she directed him back to the main steep path of the hill, adding sarcastic comments here and there. Dean soon ensured she was securely over his shoulder, waving to Seth at the bottom of the hill, Summer at his side before attempting to find a safe route down the hill, intending on keeping both of them safe on the unsteady incline.
He got halfway down, using the tree branches and firm rocks as handles, before he lost his footing, sending both himself and Morgan rolling the remainder of the way down the steep incline, Seth noticing quickly reached for Summer to move her out of the protectory path, the two waited and watched as their respected partners come rolling down, silently hoping neither had any serious injuries from the tumble. Dean got down first, staggering to his feet when Morgan finally reached the bottom, knocking messy haired teen back of his feet as if he was a bowling pin and she the ball. Although she had unintentionally done him a favour, as it was rather obvious had Morgan not knocked him over, he would have fallen on his own.
"Nice of you to finally join us" laughed Summer, finding amusement in what had occurred, even more so as she lay witness to the pair attempting to stand and act if nothing was amiss. Morgan wobbling as she attempted to dust herself off, only to hold her arms out as if to regain her balance, falling to the grass covered ground moments later. Seth soon reach for Dean, amusement on his features, ensuring Summer could support him before reaching for Morgan. Summer's laughter clear to hear as Dean clung to her, his features pale as if he been on the waltzers at the local amusement park. To Summer, seeing her man in such away, reminder her of an incident the year prior, although she didn't speak a word of it. To the blonde it was as if the roles were switched.
"Is everything supposed to be spinning?" questioned Morgan, leaning on Seth as she attempted to walk. Although it appeared as if she was doing some funny dance. Seth whispering a promise, not to allow her to forget the express route down the steep hill, yet he couldn't deny it looked fun to try, even when he had no intention of actually attempting such an act. The two toned teen, soon opted to carry the midnight hair girl, as soon as he seen Summer bundle Dean into the passenger side of her car, he began to make the short trek home. He knew her parents were out of town for the next few days, leaving Maddy in charge of the household, a bad idea to anyone whom knew the older woman. Although he knocked on the black varnished door several times, no one answered, Morgan stating she didn't have a spare key and her brain to frazzled to say where the other one hid.
So the two toned teen opting to take her to his home next door, explaining to his mother what happened and why Morgan appeared dazed and out of it. His mother ensuring someone knew where the teen was, while sending the pair up the stairs. Seth finding out an old t-shirt of his, while his mother offered an old pair of pyjama bottoms, before helping her to the bathroom to change. Reassuring the teen girl she'd have a place to stay in the spare bedroom, before returning home the following afternoon, after completing her other plans.
