Song: Painkiller by Three Days Grace

Josie's pov

I was laying on my bed listening to some FFDP Jekyll and Hyde when there was some loud banging on the door. "Whhhhaaaaaaaaaatttttt do you wwwwwaaaannnttt!!!" Tyler complained as I stood up and opened the door. "Shelby-" I was cut off by Shelby running in to the dorm. "Yes Steve you may come in." I said as I turned around to see Shelby shacking Tyler like crazy.

"What is wrong with you how could you let this happen!" Shelby shouted. "Hey! Come on Steve let him go!" I shouted, pulling Shelby away from him."Why didn't you stop them!" Shelby shouted struggling in my grip. "We had a plan and it was scheduled soon but he did it before we could stop him!" I shouted back, trying to keep Shelby from killing Tyler. "I don't care!!" Shelby shouted.

"*Sigh* ... Plan B...... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I screamed on the top of my lungs and threw Shelby on to my bed. "What the fuck!!!" Shelby shouted angry "Calm your shit!" I shouted back and sighed again. "He is depressed... Don't make him depressed and broken... Literally." I said, sitting down on the side of his bed. "Yeah Yeah! I know but... They seem like a good couple so far... It's been a week and nothing bad has happened yet." Shelby said.

"Yeah... I don't like it... I can tell Alex has something planned but he clearly hasn't revealed it..." I replied crossing my arms over my chest. "Not only that but Deaunte thought I would except there relationship." Shelby said looking down at the floor. "What did you tell him?" I asked, looking at Tyler as he sat up and looked at Shelby.

"I lied to him." Shelby said, looking up at us, guilty. "You said you accepted it didn't you?" Tyler asked. Shelby looked down at the ground and nodded. "Well How could I not except, when Deaunte is talking about how you didn't except there relationship!" Shelby shouted, falling backwards down on to my bed. "Yeah... What exactly happened?" Tyler asked, curling up into a ball. "Well...

Flashback

Shelby's pov

'Where did they all go?? This was Josie's plan wasn't it! To make me lonely?! Most importantly... Who am I talking to?!?!' I thought, before my internal conversation with myself got interrupted. "Shelby! I have good news!" I turned to see Deaunte, Isabelle, Lucas, and........... Alex. "What is it?" I asked noticing Alex and Deaunte trading glances.

'What is he planning?' I thought glaring at Alex. "Well... I hope you are okay with it... Shelby, I'm dating Alex!" Deaunte said and I froze. 'No... No... This can't be happening!!! Josie-' "Are you okay with it?" Deaunte asked, worried "Of course! As long as you love him, and he doesn't hurt you... Then I am 100% okay with it!" I lied, giving him a fake smile.

"Thank you!" Deaunte shouted, hugging me. "Josie didn't accept us being together... She left and Tyler went after her but I don't think they will come back to the party..." Deaunte said, sadly. 'What? Why did Josie den- Oh! Tyler! Oh shit!' I thought but  "Don't worry Deaunte! Josh has to have a good reason!" I said, as he smiled back at me. "Shelby's right! Josie has to have a good reason!" Isabelle suggested putting her hand on Deaunte's shoulder.

"Okay... Well we still get to party so... Let's finish this night off with a bang!" Deaunte shouted as Lucas, Alex, an Isabelle cheered. "Come on Shelby!" Deaunte shouted, as my smile disappeared. '...Deaunte...'

Flashback Over

"Well that was a great lie..." Josie mumbled. I looked at Josie to see her deep in thought. "Josh? Why did you deny their relationship?" I asked , as Josie looked up at me... In shock. "What!? You don't know? Wow... Out of everyone. I at least thought you would know!" Josie shouted, but I just looked at her confused.

"Alex is a womanizer! He plays with woman! Woman play with him! No one can go gay just with the snap of my finger and if someone can then they defiantly aren't Alex! This isn't a fanfiction! (XD) Alex wont think 'Oh he's gay and I think he is cute! I think I am going to date him! Even though I am a huge homophobe!" Josie shouted.

"Wait he's a homophobe!?" I asked, in complete shock. "Yeah! That I why he isn't my friend anymore!!" Josie shouted, clenching her fist. "Wait... If he isn't your friend anymore than why do you guys still act like it?" I asked, even more confused.

"He threatened me... In public or anywhere in front of people who would recognize you. Act like were friends or you don't do that and ill regret it forever! Is what he told me... I don't care... I will pretend to be his friend but if he does anything... I will kill him." Josie said, a lot calmer. "Yikes! Well I didn't only come here to drill you two but I came here to tell you that everyone is worried!" I said. "I'm not leaving in till Tyler feels better." Josie replied

"It's been 2 weeks since the party! The only time anyone has seen you was when your at the story buying food! We never see Tyler!" I shouted angrily. "Fine! We'll go back to school!" Tyler complained. "Really? For one day?" I asked, a bit irritated. "We know! today is Thursday and knowing you two! You guys will go to class all day on Friday, but on Monday wont go to school for another nine weeks! We'll go to school!" Josie complained, mocking me.

"*Sigh* Just go to school." I said, as Josie stood up and grabbed a brush off of her desk. "I know! We will!" Josie said sitting back down on Tyler's bed and started brushing his hair, witch looked like a birds nest. "After I get this thing out of Tyler's hair." Josie said, gabbing a handful of his hair and showing me, the mess it had become.

"Okay... Well I am going to go find Deaunte and tell him that you guys are going back to school tomorrow." I said, walking to the door. "We should redye your hair... The blond is fading out." Josie mumbled, as I left there room.

I walk up to Deaunte's room and knocked on the door. I hear a gasp and a loud thud. The door opens a crack and then opens all the way. "Shelby! Wh-What are you doing here?" Deaunte asked, looking like he was in another world. I looked at hem skeptically my mind going haywire with what might of happened. "I was going to tell you good news... Can I come in?" I asked, knocking him out of whatever land he was in.

"Oh! Yeah! Come in!" Deaunte said, a lot louder then he was before. (That made no sense!!! I am hoping you guys know what I mean!!!!!) "So... It's about Tyler and Josie." I said, sitting down on Deaunte's bed. "What is it?" Deaunte asked going back to his normal persona. "They are gong to go to class tomorrow!" I shouted happily. Deaunte smiled and jumped up and down n victory.

"Yay!! I was worried about them... Did Josie tell you why she disapproved me and Alex being together?" Deaunte asked. "No she didn't tell me but I think she will tell you tomorrow." I said, looking at Alex and standing up. "Well anyways I'm going to bed... Bye Deaunte!" I called, walking towards the door and exiting. "Bye Shelby- Alex no!" I heard exiting. 'The fuck!' I thought walking back to my dorm.

"Hello bitch! Oh sorry... Serra" I walked in, ignoring Celestine and jumping on to my bed. "Don't ignore me bitch!" She shouted, throwing her cigarette at me. "Shut up Slut! I haven't had the best day." I shouted leaning up, looking at her. "Great! You deserve to suffer!" Celestine snapped, a smirk forming on her face thinking she won... Oh and wrong she was...

"I would say that back at you but you have been suffering for years... Should I say it again... Slut." I replied, her smirk quickly disappeared. "I'm not a slut!" She shouted angrily. "Yeah... Say that your friends with benefits, Maybe they might believe you after fucking you again!" I shouted, laying back down. "You bitch! .... Hmph!" She stood up and stopped out of our dorm. 'Yes! Piece and quiet.'

*Time Skip*

Josie's pov

"Yay! Your hair is done!" I shouted looking at Tyler's hair. "Does it look okay?" He asked worried. "Of course! I did it!" I shouted, pushing him in to the bathroom as he looked at his hair in the mirror. "Thanks!" He said a smile on his face.

"Turn around I am going to braid your hair." I said as I started braiding his hair. I dyed the ends of his hair bright blond and darkened his roots with a darker red. (His original hair color is crimson red) "You have long hair." I commented, comparing his hair with mine. His hair went down to his waist braided and mine went to around the middle of my back... "My mom said that I looked nice with long hair so I kept it." Tyler said walking out of the bathroom.

"What time is it?" I asked no one in particular, picking my pocket watch of my bedside table. "5:37" I said looking at Tyler as he grabbed his school bag. "Why you looking at me? Let's go!" He shouted grabbing my wrist and my school bag and dragging me out of our room.

*Time Skip* (5th Period)

"Okay class! Today you and your partner will be writing an essay on whatever topic you think differently of. For example Kim believes that black is a color and Jen believes that black is a value. Kim and Jen will write an essay about there opinions...... Did that make sense?" Ms. Malla asked, and we all nodded. She smiled and pulled out a stack of papers and put them on a table in the middle of the room.

"You may begin!" She said returning back to her desk as everyone went to grab a piece of paper. I returned back to my seat and looked at Tyler. "We have a lot in common... Damn I don't know what to do." I said slamming my head against the desk. "How about-" Tyler started but was interrupted. "Hey can I work with you, Tyler?" We turned to see Alex.

Chapter 8 is complete with a total of 1771 words. Now the next chapter is going to be pretty short because somethin is going to happen and I like to leave people with a cliffhanger..... Yeah... Poor little Tyler... What is he going to do? Well anyways........... like always..... Thank You! Good Bye!
