hapter 6: Phone call

"I'm WHAT?!" Musa shouted at her dad. "You're kidding right?"

Ho-Boe had just delivered the worst possible news - to Musa - ever. He had enrolled her into Gardenia High, the local high school. It's not that she doesn't want to attend the school, there's a person there she absolutely despised, Veronica. She and Veronica used to be friends. But things changed and so did their friendship. Musa had requested to attend boarding schools because she can't stand to be in the same school as her. Unfortunately, she had been expelled so many times that Ho-Boe decided that enough was enough and enrolled her into the local school.

Ho-Boe shook his head and said, "No Musa, I'm serious."

"You know how much I hate that bitch. I can't believe you decided to put be there. I thought we had agreed I'll go to boarding schools."

"And I thought we had agreed that you behave and try not to get expelled from Broader Inter Academy. I didn't see you keeping the promise, so why should I?"

"B-but, that's different." Musa stuttered. "I did try, but like I said, nobody messes with my things and get away with it."

"Well, I'm sorry."

"You can't do that!" Musa yelled.

"I can and I already have!" Ho-Boe raised his voice at his only daughter, who glared at him and stomped up to her room.

"I can't believe him." Musa complained to Caroline that night on the phone.

Caroline had went back to her hometown in New Zealand when Broader Inter let out. She was hanging out with her so call 'boyfriends' when Musa called to complain about her dad.

"Well, too bad, baby. He's your dad, you have no choice."

"Yeah, right. Look who's saying."

"Haha, it's so funny. Excuse me for not laughing."

"Aw, come on, Caroline."

"Just kidding."

The two friends talked for a bit before Caroline saying she need to drink with her 'boyfriends'.

"I worry for you, Car."

"Why?"

"When break's over, who'll keep you in check?"

"Nah, don't worry. I can take care of myself. Besides I'm 17, I'm older than you, since when did I need your babysitting?"

"Since the first time we met. And by the way, you had to repeat two years of Freshman, so you're only a Sophomore. Age don't count."

"Hmm, you're right. Anyway, gotta go. Bye, girl."

"Later."

"Seriously Layla, you should remove some of your equipment. If I didn't know better, I would think you're a - Hey! What are you guys giggling about?"

The Winx was hanging out in Layla's bedroom. There's a lot of sports equipment that it took up a lot of space - even though the room is very big. Stella was lecturing Layla about it when Bloom suddenly got up and stood behind her. She was copying Stella's moves and actions behind her back.

"N-nothing." Layla said trying to stifle her giggles.

"Hey, tell me. What is it?" Stella asked, letting the curiosity get the good of her.

"It's nothing, honest."

"Bloom sweetie, I think you've had your fun. Now sit down." Flora told Bloom in the sweet voice of her's.

When Stella heard that, she turned around and Bloom grinned sheepishly, having been busted - by Flora, no less.

"And I thought you were the sweetest one of us." Bloom said.

"I'm hungry. Layla, is there anything to eat in your house?" Tecna asked Layla.

"Yeah, last time we came, there was practically nothing to eat." Bloom commented.

"There're still some cookies." Flora said.

"Doesn't count." Stella snorted

"I dunno." Layla replied and stood up. "Probably."

The girls followed her downstairs into the kitchen. The kitchen was huge and loaded with every kind of food. The last time the girls came, there was nothing edible except for a few packs of cookies and some instant mix.

"Take whatever you wish." Layla invited them in a deep voice and bowed down.

They don't need to be told twice. The girls, including Layla took whatever they find and liked. After their little 'lunch', they settled in the living room. Layla's phone rang and she went out into the hallway before answering. There was a lot of 'Uh huh', 'Yeah, 'kay', and finally a big fat 'YES". She came back into the room and invited the girls to sleep over tonight.

"Yeah sure." they replied after making a few calls to their parents.

"I'm gonna have to take my make up kit, my hairdresser kit, my... - "

"Oh no, you don't, Stella. This is a sleepover at my house and is strictly make up and hairdressing free. Got it?"

"Aw, and I was so looking forward to it." Stella pouted but instantly brightened up. "At least can we do our nails?"

"Fine." Layla signed. "Why did you have to be my friend?" she wondered out loud.

Stella just laughed and said she needed to get home to 'prepare' for the sleepover.

"Flora, truth or dare?" Bloom asked when it was her turn.

"Truth."

It seems to Tecna that every sleepover ended with a game of 'Truth or Dare' or 'movie night'.

"You gotta answer this truthfully, Flo." Bloom looked at Flora pointedly causing the shy girl to gulp and nod. "What stage are you and Helia on?"

"Um, uh." Flora's face was a deep shade of pink when she heard the question. "I don't know. Kissing, I guess?"

"Are you sure, Flora?" Layla leaned forward.

"Y-yes."

"Aw, come on Flora, tell the truth." Stella whined.

"I am. Well, not really. Um, we're probably, er, to the, uh, kissing and, and - "

The girls all leaned in to hear what Flora was saying as her voice was getting softer and softer with each word.

"Maybe touching." Flora's voice was so soft that the girls could barely heard it.

"What was that, Flora?" Bloom asked cupping her ears. "I can't hear you."

By now, Flora's face was so red that even a tomato can't beat her. Sensing Flora's discomfort, Tecna decided to interrupt.

"Girls, come on. You can clearly see that Flora's not comfortable with this question."

Flora shot Tecna a grateful look.

"Humph, you're no fun." Stella sat back at her place ad Bloom agreed.

Flora's face returned to normal a few seconds later and they continued to play.

"Tecna, truth or dare?" Flora asked the techno loving girl.

"Why did you ask me? I was the one who saved you." Tecna whined.

"Sorry, but the others already have their go." Flora smiled apologetically.

"Fine, dare."

"Well," Flora paused to think of a good dare for Tecna. "I dare you... to drink a whole container of milk without stopping."

When Layla heard that, she got up to take a cartoon of milk from the fridge and handed it to Tecna.

"Here."

Tecna took one look at the size of the cartoon and shook her head.

"No, that's impossible to finish in one go."

"Well, Tec. A dare is a dare." Stella looked on smugly.

"Good dare, Flora." Bloom smiled at the shy nature girl.

"I'm so going to regret drinking this." she muttered and gulped down the milk.
