Dekka was in detention, for not doing her homework. She had spent too long on Drake's homework to do her own. It was the last five minutes before detention finished. For her detention punishment, she had to sort out lost property. It was a truly disgusting job, picking out sweaty sports tops, and having to turn them over until she found a name tag. Just as she had sorted a pair of sweaty shorts with no label, she heard a teacher saying that she could go. Dekka couldn't get out of the room quick enough.
Coming out, she bumped into Drake, and groaned. She couldn't have had worse luck.
"Oh, hey Dekka!" Drake said, pretending to be happy to see her. "Yeah, so, I was talking to Taylor, and I accidently let slip some information that I shouldn't have…"
Dekka glared at Drake, who simply smiled, and walked off. Dekka was puzzled. I would have thought that Drake would have blackmailed me for longer, thought Dekka. Something seems weird.
Diana was in the library, reading a book, when Taylor walked in. Diana started to get up and walk out, when Taylor stopped her.
"What do you want," sighed Diana.
"Well, I just wanted to tell you something that you already know," said Taylor.
"Please don't. I have enough going on without you bothering me."
Taylor looked hurt. "What, didn't you want to know that I know about Lana? Being a three bar?"
Diana stopped trying to escape, and looked at Taylor hard. She didn't know whether to pretend that it wasn't true, or whether to ask who told her. In the end, she told Taylor "Come with me."
For once, Taylor followed with no argument.
Caine was laying on his bed when Diana and Taylor walked in. He looked at both of them pointedly, then shot a questioning look at Diana.
"Taylor, why don't you tell Caine what you just told me?" It was a question, but the way Diana said it, it could be considered as a demand.
"Certainly." Taylor smiled, looked at Caine who was sitting up on his bed, interested.
"I never knew, that Lana could be so powerful, did you Caine? I mean, three is quite powerful."
Caine looked at Diana, then spoke to Taylor calmly. "Where did you hear that, Taylor?"
Taylor broke her mask for a split second. It was such a quick emotion, that no one other than Caine would have noticed it.
"I keep my sources a secret."
"Thank you Taylor. You can go now."
Taylor left the room, after having one last look at Caine.
