Chapter Twenty Seven: Friends (Part 2)
Jude's group gathered around at Pizza Hut to eat and hang out. The argument he had with Abby left him depressed due to some shocking realizations. He was gutless and that wouldn't get him any closer to Lexi.
The group waited for their pizza and in the group, a certain individual was looking at someone. This was Lexi looking at Jace who was with his friends waiting for their pizza a few tables over.
She wasn't the only one to look at someone. Malcom couldn't help but take glances at Tori as well. 'Do I like Tori? Nah, can't be.' Malcom thought to himself.
Lexi got up from her seat and walked over to Jace and his friends. They all looked at her before she said, "Hi there, I'm Lexi... we have homeroom together and my friends and I were gonna go up to the roof tonight to see some fireworks and I was wondering if you could join us tonight."
"Sure thing! We'll see you there!" Jace said quickly without thinking twice about his decision. Lexi smiled before saying, "Nice, see ya later." She left and Vanessa and Johnny looked at him funny.
"What was that?" Vanessa asked. "Sonic, did you forget that you have a girlfriend?" Johnny continued.
"No, I just wanna see the fireworks,plus it would be a nice thing to post on the channel." Jace told his friends, unsure if it was the truth or not. "Look who finally chose to give a crap about the channel." Vanessa said with much annoyance in her voice. He thought she was gonna punch him until the pizza arrived at the table. "Finally!! My pizza! I've been starving." Johnny yelled before they all dug in.
Upon arriving back to sit with her friends, Lexi was met with questioning looks on the faces of all her friends.
"What was that about?" Tori asked. "Just invited them to watch the fireworks with us tonight. No big deal." She said before Abby and Malcom continued the interrogation.
Later back at school everyone was preparing. Johnny was gathering his supply of weed that he was growing, Hobgoblin.
Jace was looking for Note. Vanessa was getting drinks. Jace got a bracelet for Lexi but we all know where things are gonna go. Every one else just waited.
Time finally arrived. It was lights out and the students snuck out of the dorms using decoys.
Jude's group was the first to make it and Jace's group followed soon after. It was Jude, Abby, Malcom, Lexi, Tori, Jace, Note, Johnny, Vanessa, Amanda and Danielle.
Everyone sat. All of them were drinking but only a few like Johnny, Vanessa, Jace and Note were smoking the Hobgoblin.
This was where some things went south. For both Jude and Lexi. Lexi found out then and there that Note was dating Jace. She turned to Malcom for comfort and this stung Jude.
Jace was with Note, Johnny was getting beyond high with Vanessa, Abby and Amanda met and they hit things off immediately.
Malcom was consoling Lexi and Danielle was talking to Tori. Jude was left alone and he felt lonely when this happened. All that changed when he saw a green burst of light in the night sky.
"Guys!! It's starting!!" He called out and pointed. Everyone's attention was then directed to the fireworks that went off colouring the canvas known as the night sky.
The sight was alluring to them all and this was something that they could all agree that they loved. It was nothing short of beautiful.

"Those were some great memories that we made that night." Amanda said.
"We should leave guys. It wouldn't feel right without Jude being here. We owe him that at least." Abby said.
"Sit your asses down you fuckers." Everyone looked to see the one person they never thought they'd see. Jude. Well, Jude and Paige, but she hid behind him.
"Look, I acted immature so I'm giving you one more chance so don't pull that bullshit on me again. If you do, I swear to god that I'll shank each and everyone of you."
"Nice to have you back bro." Malcom said with his classic smile as he was happy his friend came back.
Jude looked at everyone. It was the same as before, with the exception of the extra people that were added. He looked at the starry sky and noticed a red spark of light in the night sky. "Hey bitches!! It's starting!" Jude told them all before they all watched as the fireworks lit up the sky once more.
It was then when Jude displayed a genuine smile. "I missed you assholes." He said as he watched the colours light the sky.
"Hey Johnny! Pass on some of that Hobgoblin!" Vanessa yelled making them all laugh.
