#Chapter 64: Rematch

Enzo walked me home that night. I could see the disappointment written across his face, but both of us were more concerned with who sent the ” Mad Wolf Serum” to Justin… and why.

All week, the entire school was buzzing with gossip thanks to not only the excitement of the rematch, but also the news of Justin’s removal from the hockey team. I tried my best to stay out of it and to just focus on school and work, but when news got out that Justin had suddenly gone home to stay with his parents for the remainder of the semester, I started to question whether that was true or not.

“Why are you waking me up?” I asked, glancing at the clock on my bedside table. “It’s not even eight in the morning. And you’re dressed already.”

Jessica grinned and walked over to my closet. I watched annoyedly as she started rifling through my clothes.
