Chapter 23: teleporting naked guys
[Ryan's pov…]
It's Friday today…
Tomorrow is Saturday… Miranda's party…
Damn…
Those were the thoughts I had as I ate my breakfast this morning…
It was kinda a different morning because Kathrin and Amelia were eating with me and Felix…
And what's up with that anyway!? Felix pretty much moved in with me… doesn't he have his own apartment or house or whatever? What does he do with that? And what about Kathrin and Amelia? I never saw them calling anyone, so does that mean that they live by themselves? Together?
I really don't know anything about these things do I?
"Guys… I forgot to ask, but how is everyone's living situation? I mean I've never seen you tell anyone so do you live by yourselves? And how about you Felix? I mean you're always here…" I asked just after finishing my breakfast…
"Well… me and Amelia live with two others from school…" Kathrin answered… wow… so that's why… I guess you don't need to tell anyone when it's like that…
"I live in an apartment close to school…" Felix said…
"Okay… now I know… I want to see your places too… I mean we always meet at my place… it's only fair that I get to see where you guys live too…" I replied.
"Yeah sure" Felix immediately replied
"It's kinda messy at our place though…" Kathrin said.
"That's okay… I don't mind messy places…" I replied.
"Guys… we have school you know…" Amelia said… oh yeah, that's right…
"Damn, we don't have too much time left either…" I replied after looking at my watch…
The four of us got ready for school and then we just kinda sat there for a while… I don't know what the others were thinking about, but it was probably something similar to me… I was thinking about the fact that we might not get to be in the same group at the party…
"Hey… lighten up people… we already asked her to be in the same group… if we don't end up in the same group, then we don't… and we kinda have to go to school now…" Felix said…
"Yeah… let's go… we need to see the groups we're in anyway…" I replied…
We talked like usual during the whole walk to school… it felt like nothing had happened… or maybe like what had happened made our bonds stronger…
When we got to school and walked into our classroom however we stopped talking for a while… Miranda had put a bag on top of all the student's desks… what could that possibly be?
When I walked over to my seat and looked at the bag the first thing that caught my eye was the huge writing at the front of it…
"Do not open?" Kathrin read out loud…
"Yes… no one's allowed to look inside their bags until I say so…" Miranda said, just behind our backs… when the FUCK did she get so close!? That was scary… and I've played a lot of horror games… I should know when something is scary or not… it was like she teleported…
Teleporting naked guys…
I couldn't help the laughter that erupted from those thoughts…
I'm in class… I really shouldn't do anything that could give me away…
"What could possibly be funny about that sentence?" Miranda asked… she's a little angry now… that's probably not too good for me…
"Nothing… just… how did you get behind us so fast?" I asked, my laughter dying down a little… I'm trying my hardest to hold it back…
"I didn't really… Why is that so funny anyways? I don't get it…" Miranda replied…
"It was like you teleported…" I said, still trying to hold back my laughter… but then I looked over at Kathrin and then Felix and back again, and then Kathrin understood what I had been laughing about... and when she started laughing I couldn't hold myself back any longer…
"What? I really don't understand what you're laughing about…" Miranda said… wow… she's starting to sound furious…
"T-the… teleporting naked guys!" Kathrin managed still in the process of laughing her ass off…
I guess the tension got to us, because everyone started laughing…
It was kinda nice to laugh instead of feel like every minute could be your last… it wasn't really like that… but you know, for a teenager your secrets can mean life or death to you…
"Are you trying to tell me that you're comparing me to a naked guy in some game!?" Miranda asked… oh she's pissed alright…
Everyone stopped laughing when they heard how pissed she was… she did indeed have the power to do whatever she wanted right now…
"No… we're just comparing your actions to a naked guy in some game" I said calmly, and everyone burst out laughing again… Ryan you're digging your own grave here… but it's so worth it…
"Ryan… I'm warning you…" Miranda said and that caused shivers to run down my spine… there was something with the way she said it… it was kinda scary…
"Well that's nice, the teleporting naked guys never warn you" Amelia said… of all the people present, I never thought Amelia would say something like that…
Miranda just looked at her with pure anger and Amelia returned her look with one of her own…
Did something happen between them? What am I missing out on here?
"You're all morons" Miranda said before walking back to her seat…
"Thanks Amelia…" I said when I was sure Miranda couldn't hear me…
"It was nothing…" Amelia replied.
During the first period the teacher looked baffled by all the bags on our tables, but when Miranda told him to not worry about it he continued the class without commenting on it…
When school was over Miranda's private little squad stood in front of the door to our classroom…
They only let out our teacher… damn…
"You are now allowed to open the bags in front of you, and you will find the list containing the names of the people in your group. You will also find clothes in your own size, this will be your attire for the party… you will also find an instruction for how to put the clothes on, in case some of you don't know how to, and lastly, you will also find the schedule for the day in the bag… that is all I have to say. I'll be expecting your presence at the party tomorrow." Miranda said… oh fuck… what kind of clothes did she give us!? Schedule!?
After Miranda finished giving her speech most of the people in class checked their bags, but Kathrin, Amelia, Felix and me just kinda stood there for a while…
"Let's open them when we get to my place?" I suggested…
"Good plan…" Felix said before we all kinda just hurriedly went outside…
The walk back to my place was silent, and we didn't start talking before we had been sitting in my living room for a while…
"So… who wants to open theirs first?" Kathrin asked… she's kinda scared of the content of the bag isn't she? Well I don't blame her… I'm kinda scared of what might be inside too…
"I… I guess I'll go check…" I said before I got up and started walking towards my room.
"Go check? What do you mean by that? Can't you check here?" Kathrin asked.
"No, I mean I'll change into the outfit… we have to be sure they fit us, don't we?" I answered before continuing on my way to my room…
"I guess you're right…" Kathrin said.
When I got up to my room however I sat down on my bed and kinda just looked at the bag in my lap for a while… what could possibly be in there?
I sat there for a while before thinking "fuck it" and opened the bag.
The first thing I noticed was the laminated paper that laid on top of everything… okay…
I took out the note and read it… this feels like amnesia… I nearly expected the first words to be "dear peter" or something like that…
The fact that the first words were "Dear Ryan" wasn't exactly comforting…
"The following people are in your group" was the next words I read… oh fuck… what if I'm alone? What if neither Felix, Kathrin nor Amelia's names are on this list?
What the fuck do I do then?
I could feel myself getting more and more nervous as my eyes carefully read every name on the list…
I had read four names before I found Felix's, and I don't think I've felt so relieved ever in my entire life…
But wait… he doesn't know my secret… he can't use our plan to help me… fuck… oh well, at least I'm not alone…
I dared check the rest of the list and we were all in the same group… but so was all the people named Ryan… and Miranda was in our group… she put all the people named Ryan in our entire school into one group… what does she… how does she…
I don't even know anymore…
Let's just check this "attire" of hers…
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
I'm sorry... I just couldn't help calling this chapter that...
and hurr durr... what have I planned for them to wear indeed?
