And Then There Were Four

Cassie.

The moment the last bell rang, I groaned. It was time to serve out my detention, and as much as I wanted to dip and go home, I knew I couldn't. I would just get lectured by my parents and then have to do it tomorrow anyways. Grabbing my belongings and shoving them into my bag, I sighed as I stood to my feet, walking out of my last classroom. Miss Abel's class was downstairs, and the quicker I got there to serve out detention, the faster I could leave. However, as soon as I got to the bottom of the stairs, I spotted Miss Abel with all of her belongings walking down the hall. Had she forgotten I had detention?NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

"Are we not doing this today, then?" I asked flatly, curious as to where she seemed to be going in such a good mood. Turning to face me, she smiled and shook her head.

"Oh, you are. I forgot to tell you, I actually have something to do after school, so you're going to be serving out detention in the library with Mr. Danton." Judging by the smug expression on her face, she knew full well I couldn't stand the gym teacher. Mr Danton was enough to make me want to claw her eyes, but instead, I turned away.

Fists clenched with my irritation at an all-time high, I fixed the bag on my shoulder and made my way towards the library. If I had to endure dealing with Mr. Danton, then so be it. At least in a few days, I would never have to see his smug face again.

The moment I got there, I instantly regretted everything I had said earlier to piss Miss Abel off because the only other fucking person in the library serving out detention was goddamn Lucas Vega.

His dark, mesmerizing eyes met

mine, and as they did, a sick, sadistic smirk crossed his lips. There was an air about him that screamed mysteriousness. He had black, spiky, clean cut hair and wore dark designer jeans and a black, tight fitted t-shirt adorned with a black leather jacket. His look screamed walking sex machine.

"Interesting." His words pulled me back to the present, and as it did, I frowned.

Interesting? I didn't know what he found interesting about this, but as soon as Mr. Danton looked up from the desk he sat behind, a smile grew wide across his face.

"Well, well, well." Mr. Danton laughed with amusement. "It's nice to see you again, Cassie. Unfortunately, I wish it would have been on better terms."

"Yeah, sure," I replied flatly as I

moved towards a table on the far side of the room. The farther away from Lucas, the better. As much as t had enjoyed making a fool of him that night, I didn't care to be around him. He was incredibly annoying, and with Pollux acting like a dick about Lucas, I didn't want to give him more reason to be on my ass.

Placing down my bag and pulling out my books, I tried to dive into the school work my teachers decided needed to complete before the end of the week. All of it I found pointless considering it was the end of the year, and with my perfect GPA, I

wasn't worried about failing.

Nevertheless, I dived into it trying to ignore the stare Lucas was sending from across the room. His dark eyes bore into my head as I tried to feverishly ignore it.

It wasn't until Mr. Danton stood to his feet and moved around from the desk. I finally looked up and away from my school work. "Alright, you two. I'm going to go take a break. Try not to get into trouble while I'm away."

From what I had heard from other students, when Mr. Danton took a break, he was typically gone until detention was over. I contemplated skipping the rest of it and leaving to head home, but knowing my luck, I'd get caught. The moment the door closed and Mr. Danton disappeared, Lucas appeared in front of me on the other side of the table. "You and I need to have a little talk."
