Mica had his foot leaned up against the lockers, his head bowed, his colorful hair covering his healed face yet it looked like he was in pain. When I got close to him, he looked up and smiled but it was more directly towards Oakley. Oakley smiled and gave Mica a hug.
"I'm so happy you're okay," Oakley whispered.
Mica glanced at me. "Yeah, I'm happy too."
He pushed Oakley gently off him and sucked in a deep breath. I grabbed Oakley's hand and smiled softly at him, but it felt fake to me. Something in my gut was telling me to tell Oakley what I was going to do with Mica but I promised not to tell, especially Oakley.
"Babe, I won't be picking you up today. Call Curtis, okay?"
Oakley's happy expression disappeared. "What? Why? Are you..."
"Am I what?"
Oakley casted his eyes down. It looked like he got punched in the stomach or someone told him the worst news of his life. I almost prayed for him to leave without asking me questions but I was his boyfriend and I couldn't leave him when he was sad. "Are you going to have sex with Lexi?"
Mica snapped his eyes to me. "Who's Lexi?"
"She's a friend of mine," I answered without looking at Mica. "Why would you think that?" I said to Oakley.
"Well, you left without telling me—"
Oh. I sighed and hugged him. "Oakley, I'm in a relationship with you. That means I have my full trust on you, I won't cheat on you, and I can't hurt you."
"And you will always tell me the truth?" He said. God, I wished he didn't say that. I swallowed the lump in my throat. I couldn't tell him what I was going to do. I wished I could tell him so badly.
"That's right," I said shakily and pulled away. "Now get to class. We'll see you after."
Oakley beamed and pecked me on the lips. He sent a smile to Mica before he turned around and walked to his class. From afar, I saw Aggie watching us with intensely and worry in her eyes.
When Grant walked past me, my eyes glued to the back of his head and I felt myself shaking. Aggie's brown eyes switched back to me and Grant and it looked like a light bulb appeared on top of her head. She started to march towards us and she opened her mouth to say something but I tapped Mica on the arm and nodded to Aggie. He looked at Aggie and annoyance appeared on his face.
Mica nodded his head to the opposite direction. "Let's ditch her."
And we ditched her.
I looked behind my shoulder and she stood where were. She had sadness written on her face and she turned around and walked the opposite direction where we were going. My brain screamed for me to turn around and explain what was going to happen in the next few hours. But I couldn't because I promised not to tell.

Mica gulped down the beer like his life depended on it. I had the urged to drink one but I thought against it when I had better things to worry about. I was simply terrified and Mica wasn't making it any better.
He was cool and collected and it made me think: Has he done this before? But that's crazy, Mica was a little pussy, he wouldn't do anything to hurt someone. At least that's what I kept telling myself when I saw him pull out a pocket knife. I flinched away when he pointed the knife towards me.
"Dude, watch where you point that thing," I almost yelled. I glared at him when he rolled his eyes and put the pocket knife back in his pocket. I checked my watch and sighed in annoyance when time was taking too long.
