The dark haired boy spits out blood, glaring at the door Haiden and another boy disappeared from. “Fuck you Cross.” He spits again, this time the bloody spit falls on top of the lunch table.

He roughly pushes another boy away from him and marches away. A second later the cafeteria goes back to normal, like nothing ever happened. Strangely my eyes didn’t want to stray away from the door Haiden walked out of.

What was all that about?

The confusion I felt was as heavy as a sack of rocks. Haiden’s actions were always confusing and was constantly an alarm to everyone. But never had I ever seen him fight with someone he spared his friendship to.

“Speaking of……” She takes a fry from her tray and points it at Christian. “You probably should stay away from him. He’s bad news and will get you in trouble. “She pushes the fry in her mouth and chews harshly.
