Lunchroom
Tati POV
Okay Bailey's going to die!
No one can make my sister cry except for me... That didn't sound right...
That whole scene was completely unexpected
I never seen Josh so angry
I never seen Sean so confused
I never seen Kaycee so sad...
I mean the girl that basically became her bestfriend ever since me and Tahani left her just did something worse
"I'm going to check on Kaycee" I said for some reason out loud
"Why?" Kenzie asked me
"She's a weirdo and frankly I'm still surprised she got with Sean in the first place" Mari added
"Yes she's a weirdo... but what's wrong being weird?! If anything its weird to be normal" I said going after Kaycee
It took a long time, fourth period had already started and I couldn't find Kaycee, not even Tahani, Josh, or Bailey
I stumbled upon the gym and overheard Josh talking to Kaycee and Tahani and the recording of Bailey that Josh played
and my sentiments matched Tahani's
that bitch!
So seeing that Tahani and Josh have Kaycee I'm going to find Bailey!
Julian POV
After that scenario I see Sean trying to go after Kaycee after Josh got taken away so I was going to follow after him and along the way...
"Hey Julian!" Chloe said to me confusing me even further as I remember her telling me to never talk to her again
"Not now Chloe"
"I'm willing to give you a third chance" she said as I had to roll my eyes
"But..."
"But you have to skip class with me and take me out to eat" Chloe said
"Um no" I said "I kinda have to check on Sean and Josh"
"Those two? You three are barely friends, just leave them be" she said to me which I just had to shake my head at
"They're still my brothers, just because we don't talk like we used to or eat lunch together doesn't mean I don't care about them anymore" I said walking away from Chloe
"I'm serious this time if you keep walking we are never getting back together!" she said but it didn't matter to me anymore
After some time I found Sean he was in the auditorium playing music with his hat over his head a clear sign he was upset
"What's up dude?!" I asked him as I sat next to him
"I don't know, one second I'm teaching Bailey how to slow dance for Josh the next sec I'm up against the wall with my best friend pissed at me and my girlfriend running away crying" he said
"So you didn't kiss her?"
"Of course not I lo-like Kaycee, she is my girlfriend you know!" Sean said
"Well go get her and explain that to her" I told him
"I can't find her!?" Sean said as coincidentally his phone vibrated "She's asking where I am..."
"Meet her at the lunchroom it should be empty again" I said to him which he agreed with as he texted her the same thing
"Why don't we hang out as much anymore?" Sean asked me as we both got up and started walking
"You made your choice, you could have brought Kaycee over to the basketball table" I said
"And you could have joined us" he said back "Please don't tell me it has to do with Josh"
"Dude! He never agrees with me why should I be around someone that just keeps arguing with me" I said to him
"Why does he have to agree with you?"
"He doesn't!"
"Then what is it really?"
"...I thought well I was hoping that he would just follow my play"
"Your play?"
"Look I'm not perfect but sometimes it's nice to know that right or wrong your best friends have your back..."
"I... agree with you, we shouldn't question each other's choices all the time" Sean said "We don't have a captain on the team but you're the closest to it and Josh, me, Leon no one should ever really argue with you unless you're thinking crazy"
We made it to the cafeteria and we were not prepared to see Tati attacking Bailey with Tahani holding Kaycee and Josh trying to stop Tati
"Whoa!" as me and Sean helped Josh pry Tati off Bailey "What is going on?!"
"Josh play the recording of Bailey!" Tati said to him
"Right..." Josh said playing the recording for us
"Damn..." I said out loud after hearing the recording
"This is all just so IDA can go to a stupid tournament!" Sean said
"So Bailey and Kenneth along with whoever else knows did all this just to throw us off mentally?" I asked outloud
"Yeah I- we got played" Josh said
"And the best part Bailey keeps saying she didn't want this to happen!" Tati said still getting restrained by Josh
"I didn't" Bailey said holding her bloody nose
"Lies!" Tahani said
"Look let's all calm down!" I said to everyone "First Bailey why do you say you didn't"
"I became friends with Kaycee naturally nothing was fake about that" Bailey said "It was just unfortunate that she and Sean liked each other"
"Okay and what about Sean, Josh, and Tahani you've spent time with them as well"
"Sean was the initial target so him being with Kaycee was beneficial to Kenny's plan so I became his friend" Bailey said "Tahani being Kaycee's best friend forced me to play nice with her, even though I don't like her that much"
"And Josh?"
"... I'm not going to say I didn't like Josh if that's what you want me to say" Bailey said
"Alright Tati why did you attack Bailey?"
"She made my best friend cry!" Tati said
"So did you!" Bailey countered
"Bailey quiet! Tati you can't just attack people if there was a teacher here you would surely be suspended" I said
"Tati you don't have to fight for me" Kaycee said to her
"But she hurt you!" Tati said
"I appreciate you having my back sis but please don't get suspended for me" Kaycee said hugging Tati
"I've missed you!" Tati said to Kaycee
"I've missed you too" she said back
"Kaycee since I know you've heard the recording can you please get back with my boy Sean here" I said as Kaycee did literally run back into Sean's arms
"It's been too long!" Kaycee said into Sean's chest
"It hasn't even been an hour!" Sean joked
"Still too long!" Kaycee said
"Look we just have to prove Kenneth and IDA we can beat them fair and square!" I said
"One problem" Josh said as he rubbed the back of his head
"Josh can't play in the game since he confronted Sean at lunch" Tahani finished for him
"Maybe we can blame it on Bailey and say he provoked him" Tati said which was true in a way
"Manipulative but how are we going to word it without Bailey backing it up" I said
"I'll confess..." Bailey said
"Why?" Sean asked
"Like I told Josh I never intended on it happening this way..." She said as I can tell she did care for at least Josh and Kaycee
"Alright... I'll go with Tati and turn Bailey in, everyone else go to class" I said to everyone as we all scattered
"Good job taking charge bro" Josh said to me as he walked to his class with Tahani close behind
"Thanks"
"You're lucky you have the most leveled head out of all of us" Tahani said as I recalled she was letting Tati fight Bailey
"Just make sure Josh has a clear head" I said to her as I recalled the scenario where Bailey said the weird love triangle between her Josh and Leon
"...I'll see what I can do" Tahani said as she caught up to Josh
Sean and Kaycee were already walking away arm in arm so I didn't need to worry about them
But Tati was heated still and Bailey looked down with regret
"Let's go!" I said to the two with me between them
We were making our way to the principals office, it was already close to free period so we might not get in trouble for skipping fourth
"I have to ask!" Tati said "If you were friends with Kaycee and liked Josh why didn't you just call off this idiotic plan"
"I... was hoping that Sean and Kaycee were never going to get together I mean it did take over a month" Bailey said "But even after they got together I hoped they would break up or somehow Kaycee take my side"
"And..."
"I never intended to actually fall for Josh, shoot if anything I fell for him before he liked me..." she continued "And when I told Kenny he saw the opportunity and I had to take it"
"Why didn't Kenneth just let it go and beat us fair and square?"
"Kenny was adamant about the plan he thinks the odds were too even and like the school here the IDA basketball team is the center point of that school from the excitement of winning something of significance after so long, to it helps keep the school together as it revolves around the teams success and other things he didn't tell me about" she said "And I had no choice... I'm moving no matter what so he can make my life there great or a living hell"
"You always have a choice" Tati said "We all had choices"
"I know..." Bailey said
"So what's going to happen to you if we get Josh back in the game?" I asked her
"It depends on if you win or not, because if they still win all might be forgiven but if you all win it will be my fault" Bailey said which didn't sit right with me
"And if we can't?" Tati asked
"If Josh still can't play then it still depends on who wins as they will say I didn't affect you mentally enough if you win" Bailey answered
"So they put all the blame on a girl who didn't even really want this to happen... Man now I want to win more than ever!"
We finally made it to the principals office
"Lets see if it works!"
