Betrothed is a Bad Word
We hurriedly took our seats and I placed my bag on the end of my desk to block out a few of the stares. The whispers, however, were a little bit harder to block out.
"Do you think they really work for Royal Pain?"
"What sort of relationship do they have!"
"Attention seekers."
I rolled my eyes. What is with the need to gossip about everything but always end up getting the completely wrong end of the stick? How are we ever going to live through this? I can't even concentrate! Mr. Medulla is blathering on about something but I cant hear him. I think I subconsciously blocked him out. I looked at Lash. He was trying to scribble down notes but they didn't look legible.
Suddenly, a piece of paper hit me in the back of the head… really hard.
"Ow!" I rubbed my head and searched the floor for the paper. I started looking by cautiously peering around my desk but eventually, after spotting it about 10 feet away from my chair, I just walked over and picked it up. I un-scrunched it on the way back to my desk and was surprised to see a handwriting I recognised.
Hey! What the hell happened earlier? You better tell me, or I swear I'll… find your diary! Besides, if that isn't a good enough reason, then how about the fact that you're my sister and I do actually care about you! Sometimes ☺Please fill me in.
Will.
P.S. Layla wants to know too.
I sighed. Will was so nosy. Although, in retrospect, I suppose I would probably have sent a similar note if I was him, although I wouldn't have thrown it so hard! I showed it to Lash and he scribbled something down underneath Will's message.
Will, we'll tell you later, I'm not sure I want to write it down so anyone could read it.
Lash.
I nodded in approval and quickly scrawled my name on the bottom too. I turned around and chucked it at his head. I smiled when it hit it's target and span back around to continue pretending to know what Mr. Medulla was going on about.

It was break now and Lash and I had ventured out to the steps by the front door to try to escape all the commotion in the corridors and to try to avoid Will. He sat down and I happily joined him. We sat in silence for a few seconds, then he grabbed my hand.
"I'm so sorry," he whispered and I didn't say a word. Nothing needed to be said. He knew I'd forgiven him.
We were just sat there, enjoying each others company when there was a sudden shout from the main door.
"Oi!" We turned around and spotted Will, jogging towards us.
"You said, you'd explain all about what happened earlier and then you didn't wait for me after class!" He scolded and I just shook my head.
"Speed's working for Royal Pain and he was trying to get at Lash because Lash is supposedly doing the same thing but he was being blackmailed to do it. Speed tried to get revenge. End of story." I shrugged. It was pretty simple.
"Wait, hold on, where's Speed now?" He asked.
"Jail," we replied simultaneously.
"Ha! I mean, well, that's justice," he corrected himself and stood with his hands on his hips looking at the sky.
"Queer…" I laughed and Lash joined in.
"Shut up! I'm practising my Commander pose," he explained then did it again. We laughed harder and then Will stopped being stupid and looked very seriously at Lash.
"Well, I'm sorry about… you know, beating you up and everything, and I guess if Blaise likes you enough to save your life, then you must be a pretty good guy after all. Umm, I guess I'm trying to say that I want to make a new start. What do you say?" Will stuck out his hand. Lash looked at it sceptically for a second then smiled so wide he could've eaten a banana sideways.
"Sure, that sounds like a plan," he grabbed his hand and Will smiled. I squealed slightly and put my arms round them both.
"This is good! After all, we'll soon be one big happy family!" I said while hugging them both.
We were still hugging when Layla found us a few seconds later.
"Well, this is an improvement," she noticed and I nodded.
"Yup, it's a new start," I told her and she held Will's hand. Lash suddenly looked down-trodden.
"What about Royal Pain?" He asked. We stood there for a while then I broke the awkward silence.
"We'll deal with that when the problem arises, and besides with Will on your side, there's nothing you can't deal with."
He took that answer as a solution and checked his watch.
"Oh crap!"
"What?" I asked, puzzled.
"We're gonna be late for 3rd period!" He exclaimed.
I was shocked at the amount he cared about being late but took the hint and we all sprinted up the steps towards a form of torture known as Gym.
