The Face Off Part 3
Just then, Phoebus, Melanie, and Jess were jarred out of their thoughts by sneering voices.
They looked up to see Collin Van Cleef III and Clinton De Luca standing in the doorway.
"Well, well," Collin sneered. "I guess we know what kind of a boyfriend Rafael is."
"Yeah," Clinton jeered. "all of his girlfriends wind up in a coma!"
"And, I'll bet he still thinks he can save her too." Collin laughed.
"Yeah, right," Clinton snorted. "she'll be asleep forever!"
"She will not!" Melanie snapped at Clinton and Collin furiously. "Rafael will make it you'll see!"
"And, what are you guys doing here in the first place?" Jess snorted.
"Just paying our respects, Melanie," Collin retorted with a mocking grin. "your mom thinks we're old friends!"
Just then the two boys were suddenly grabbed from behind and in rapid succession sent tumbling down the stairs.
Melanie looked up to see Michael standing there.
"KC sent me." Michael said.
Then Michael turned and stormed down the stairs.
A few seconds later both Collin and Clinton came flying out of the house and landed in a heap on the sidewalk.
"Good riddance to bad rubbish!" Phoebus commented.
"And stay out!" the threesome heard Michael yell.
A second they heard Eleanor Atwood protesting her innocence.
"They said they were her friends!" Eleanor protested.
"And you believed them?" Michael replied, a certain amount of annoyance at her gullibility in his voice.
