Chaim bit his lip as Jay tried to humiliate him, yet again. They were best friends, but had a love-hate relationship. "Yea, love ya too man.." he breathed under his breath as Mr. Michaels sauntered up.
"Chaim what don't you understand? Why haven't you written anything? Were you paying attention at all?"
"Yessir" Chaim said softly "Of course I was paying attention, you see, I was helping Jay here out just a little, and we were talking about the formula, because it was a little challenging for the both of us.." sending his teacher an award winning smile he continued his little fib "I was just about to start writing when Jay thought it would be funny to try and take up a piece of your time to 'help' me with something that I helped him understand" then, his phone vibrated in his pocket, and Chaim forced a cough to cover up the little noise. "Excuse you, Chaim" the teacher said, regarding his cough. "Now, Jaysone.." the tone was stern, "Would you like another detention, or would you like to keep your pranks out of my classroom?" he turned to walk away and Chaim winked at Jay before scribbling down the formula.
>>8:25AM Monday, October 25th, 2010<<
The bell rang, and Chaim smiled, standing and slowly packing the contents of his bag. Jay, Diamond and...an older lady? They were all waiting for him outside the class room.
"I'm a forensic psychologist and deception expert. By now, you've probably deduced that I'm here to investigate the ongoing murders. Um, if you wouldn't mind, can I pull you out of your next class in order to speak with you? The principal has given me permission to write you excuses to get back into class."
He smiled to himself and gave his friends sympathetic looks before starting to walk off... Then her eyes locked on him.
"I'm going to need you to come with me as well."
"Dammit.." he said softly, starting to follow them down the hall. The murders around the school freaked him out enough without some detective coming in and reminding him of the people that had been killed. He chewed his lip and sighed, one of his buddies was on the list of dead kids "Why do we have to do this.." he breathed, shooting a hurt look at Diamond.
Sitting in the little desk that she motioned to, he listened as she spoke the names of the people who had been murdered.
Jeremy Lewis the name hung in the air around him and he sighed softly. "Ma'am.." he spoke, glaring at her as she finished her little speech, "I'm not keeping shit from my kid brother..."
Kris got out of his classroom and sighed, walking down the hall to his next class, science.
Maybe I'll see Chaim he thought to himself, as his older brother's class was right near his science class.
"Ma'am..I'm not keeping shit from my kid brother..."
He heard Chaim's voice boom from a door beside his classroom, and he looked inside. There were four people, Diamond, Jay, Chaim... and some older woman he'd never seen around before. "What the.." he said softly, and then squeaked as he say Chaim's eyes move onto his little frame. "Uhm.."
Chaim saw Kris standing in the hall-way, and still glaring at the woman called to him "Come on in Kris... Let's make this trio a four-some, eh?"
