UP FROM HERE - Chapter 3: Déjà Vu
~LeafeonGold
As Chloé waited impatiently to be excused from class she was thinking about what Alan meant when he said that he was 'stuck on the roof'. "Maybe it's some kind of dupe..." she thought to herself."But what if it's not a trick or something, and he is actually stuck on the roof... I would think he would be able to open a door. But then again, it might be a door that opens from the inside... I should be careful not to close it behind me..." Right before she was about to raise her hand again, the principal's voice came on the Loudspeaker. "Excuse the announcement! There will be an assembly at 2 o'clock in the multi-purpose room on the second floor. Please make sure you are there, as if you are not present your Advisory grade will drop. To all teachers: There will be a meeting at 4 o'clock today please bring your attendance and grade book with you. Thank you." Click. Chloé checked her watch. "Its 12:26. He's probably cold up there." She raised her hand and asked to be excused from class. The teacher allowed it. She grabbed her smaller bag, and left the class.
On the roof, Alan was shivering uncontrollably. "It's... so... cold up here... Where is Chloé..? It was stupid to install a one-way door up here..."* Then he heard someone coming up the stairs as it started getting windy again. When Chloé finally managed to open the door, and keep it open with a calculator, she looked at the nearly pale Riolu walk over to her. "What took you so long, Chloé?" Alan asked. "Hey, I didn't know where this door even was, so I had to find it. Plus, it isn't like every day that one of my friends gets stuck on the roof." Chloé starts to help Alan down the stairs. When they get to the bottom, Chloé's phone starts vibrating. With one hand the pulled the phone out of her pocket and examined the text message sent from Amber. '3pr bio 15 mn' As Alan sat on the step, Chloé ran back upstairs to get her calculator and close the door. She looked at Alan and said "Come on. We have to be at 3rd Period Bio in..." She checked her watch again. "10 minutes." Alan nodded and slowly got up. Assisted by Chloé, they both went to class.
