"Shut the fuck up Spider" she cursed, rolling her shoulders back and walking off leaving ant's swinging arm behind.

"Dude." he sighed as Spider put his arms up in surrender. "Just stating the facts."

"You guys know I wasn't the only person who made the map right?" Amerie's voice shook talking to the three girls who stood before her.

"No I can't stand this 'not taking accountability' shit Ams seriously sort yourself out." Sasha looked her up and down before slamming her locker shut and walking off as Missy and Mia followed behind.

"Bit harsh no?" Mia asked interlinking her arm with Missy's while Sasha scoffed "No I wasn't harsh enough! she frickin' put all our sex lives onto that stupid map for everyone to see!"

"Speak for yourself, you're just mad you're connected to the most people." Mia laughed as they found their spot where Harper was already sitting.

She gave them a small smile just as Sasha found her words "Dusty AND Ant count as like six bodies." she spoke in defence as Mia looked over at their group, more importantly Ant.

She always found herself gazing at him, filled with admiration and a hint of tension though she would never admit it aloud.

┌── •✧• ──┐
"Ant, I want you. I want this." she admitted as a smile crept onto his face
"Really?"

"Ooo she's reminiscing," Harper teased as Mia rolled her eyes "Give me a breakkkk" she groaned falling onto Harpers lap.

She gently stroked Mia's hair as Woodsy's voice crackled through the tannoy, listing names that they initially ignored until their own were called.

"Ugh, are we really going to that?" Missy groaned. "Might as well, I'm kinda interested" Harper replied, nudging Mia off her lap.

"Ouch. And can we take a lap first? I don't want to be there early," Mia suggested, as the group agreed, waiting for her to rise from the floor before strolling off together.

After completing two laps and taking three vape breaks, they entered the classroom. Opting for a table at the back, they settled down as Woodsy launched into her usual monologue.
Mia, exhausted, rested her head on the table, tuning out the chatter. With only 10 minutes remaining until the end of the day, enduring Woodsy's endless dialogue seemed like an eternal task.

"Wait, we have permanent records?" Ant's eyes widened in disbelief. Woodsy had just sentenced them all to "S.L.Ts" until the end of term for their actions on the map.

"It's actually my first day!" a boy protested. "What a legend! Made it to the map before you even started!" Spider chuckled. "You have to come to the cemetery, dude."

"What's happening at the cemetery?" Amerie asked, only to be met with silence from her classmates. "None of your business," Sasha sneered just before the bell rang. "Anyways, we're all meeting at my place, right?" Sasha confirmed while packing her bag.

"I'll catch up with you guys later," Mia said. "I'm getting picked up anyway," she added, sending a quick message on her phone before leaving the classroom with a smile.
