It was 1:54pm and we were currently on our way back from our small trip to iHop. I discovered that they all usually skipped school once a month to have the delicious meal outside school, they changed it every month though, last month they had Taco Bell and next month it'd be Burger King or at least that's what they said.

According to Hank they'd never gotten caught in the three year tradition. Which was quite surprising knowing Regis was a really strict school or at least that's what I thought.

Most of the time I only talked with Joey and Snuffy. Joey because he was the one that had dragged me into this and Snuffy because he was just an overall friendly person.

I had gotten to know more about them while we were eating. Snuffy was the one making funny remarks every 3 seconds which made me laugh most of the time, Ricardo played a1 football, Hank was basically their babysitter trying to control 5 children and their crazy ideas, Billy was the leader of the group considering he had united them all and Joey, well Joey was just Joey.

They were all pretty nice and they even watched their swearing around me even when I told them I really didn't mind, except for Joey, that little fucker said profanities every time he could, he was unstoppable.

"Skylar are you even listening?" Billy tapped my shoulder taking me by surprise.

"Huh?" I said snapping out of my thoughts.

We were currently crossing the tunnel to get to school property. The water underneath dirty as it always had been.

"When we get there, Snuffy, Ricardo and Hank are going to run to the left and Joey, you and I are going to the right" He said while lowering his head so he would fit in the tunnel.

I placed my foot on the dry spot of the tunnel while I followed Billy's steps praying I wouldn't fall. We gave a few more steps until I heard a loud sneeze and I swear to God my life flashed before my eyes.

We were all so close to each other we ended up pushing each other like a domino effect, which would've been hilarious if I wasn't one of the domino pieces. I heard some profanities before my body hit the dirty water, my clothes sticking to my skin instantly.

I quickly lift myself from the water noticing that my hair was now soaking wet. Great.

"Way to go Snuffy" Billy claimed while getting up.

"Yeah, way to go Snuffy" Ricardo repeated hitting him lightly in the head.

"Sorry, my allergies are really bad this season" Snuffy said while whipping his nose with the back of his hand.

"Damnit Snuffy, did you really have the urge to sneeze?" Joey said shaking the water out of his hair.

"Yes, indeed" Snuffy simply answered.

Hank was just standing at the very back, completely dry and laughing at all of us, he had been behind Snuffy all this time so he wasn't really affected by his sneeze.

How could a sneeze end up so badly anyway? Either Ricardo had no balance at all or the sneeze was really disturbing that Ricardo had to get away from it pushing us on his way.

I just stood there trying to comprehend what had just happened. Snuffy sneezed, Ricardo pushed Joey making him push me and that making me push Billy. Wow, fantastic.

I tried to separate the clothes that had sticked onto my skin, just earning glances from both Billy and Joey. Pervs.

"You guys should take a picture, I've heard it lasts longer" I remarked sarcastically, making Joey turn the opposite way.

"Unfortunately I don't carry a camera with me so my memory will do" Billy replied, a smirk plastered on his face.

"Perv" I said rolling my eyes.

We all achieved to cross the tunnel without having Snuffy sneeze on us again and we were currently hiding behind the bushes, all of us ready to run.

"On the count of three" Joey said while looking around. "Three... two... one"

As said, Joey, Billy and I ran to the right side as fast as we could, while the rest went to the left. We reached the school building where we crawled all the way to the girls dormitories, they decided it would be a better idea if they went with me because apparently they didn't trust me enough to complete the mission without me getting caught. They wanted to make sure I got to my dorm without revealing their big secret.

We reached the girls dorms and the three of us stood up knowing there wasn't any risk. As we walked towards the corner Billy turned to the left and bumped with someone making me step back and bump lightly into Joey who was behind me.

"Avery you almost gave me a fucking heart attack!" Billy said with his hand dramatically on his chest.

"Why the hell are you wet?" Avery said touching Billy's hair. He didn't seem bothered by it though.

"Long story, I'll explain later" He said carelessly.

I noticed the way they talked and instantly realized they already knew each other, I wasn't surprised though, Avery seemed the type to hang out with people like Billy or Joey, she had that chill vibe.

"Sounds good" Avery nodded, books firmly held to her chest, she was probably heading to class, which was weird knowing last period had started 15 minutes ago.

"So how's yogurt?" Billy asked forgetting we were still here. "Heard he got the flu"

The only thing I wanted with all my heart right now was a warm shower and clean clothes, but no, instead I was impatiently waiting for Billy to stop his small talk.

"He's doing good" She replied nodding. "It's not really a big deal"

Avery suddenly pushed Billy aside taking notice of my presence while offering me a smile.

"Hey, I'm Avery" She said offering me her hand which I instantly shook. "These two dipshits wouldn't have introduced us anyway"

"I'm Skylar" I said returning the smile. "Nice to meet you"

"Well, I'm supposed to be in History with Mr. Murphy so you know how that goes" She said while walking away from us.

She had medium length dirty blonde hair and about 5'1. She seemed nice at first sight. I liked her.

"Hey Sky!" She yelled turning around quickly, catching my attention. "I'm in room 514 if you ever need me" she added before turning again and rushing to class.

We all watched as she faded into the school building.

"Well, that's Avery" Joey said after she was no longer in sight.

"She seems nice" I said turning to the girls dorms direction, wanting no other than a warm shower.

"Yeah" Billy said while continuing our trajectory.

We got to the door in no time and Billy opened it carefully, finally stepping into the building and slowly climbing up the stairs, the showers already calling my name.

"Where do you think you're going" We all froze and I swear I heard Billy curse under his breath.

We all turned around slowly just to face a tall blonde around her mid 20s looking at us in disapproval.

"Guys can't be in the girls dorms" She looked between Joey, Billy and me, her eyes screaming disapproval. "Are you guys skipping class? Why are you all wet?"

"Hey Angela" Billy said, talking to her as if they already knew each other. "Cover for us?"

"It's already been, what? 6 times already?" Angela said loosing her patience.

"C'mon Angela, you know I'll make it up to you" Billy insisted taking small steps towards her direction.

Joey grabbed my arm lightly to get my attention. "Angela is the girls dorm guard, her and Billy have hook-"

"Yeah" I stopped Joey before he had the chance to finish. I already knew what he was going to say.

Everything made sense. Billy would probably sneak in the girls dorms to do who knows what and Angela would cover for him as long as Billy 'made it up to her'. Fuckboy alert.

"No Billy, I've had enough. I'm calling the dean" She said and stormed off to what looked like an interphone.

Angela looked about 24, she wore skinny jeans and a shirt bringing up her curves. No doubt Billy wasn't bothered by getting it with her, any guy in their right mind would want to be in his place.

Billy turned to our direction and ran his fingers through his hair in frustration.

"This can't be happening" Billy said looking between Joey and I. "This is all your fault" He said looking directly at Joey.

I turned to face Joey and hurt flashed quickly through his eyes before adjusting to anger.

"Stop blaming me for every fucking thing that happens to you" Joey said in defense.

If you analyzed the situation going on, 1. it was probably my fault, if I hadn't agreed to go on this stupid mission they wouldn't have had to stop by at the girls dormitory, but 2. they were the little shits that didn't trust me and decided to actually come join me at the girls dorms. So who's it really to blame.

"If you wouldn't have brought her with us we wouldn't be stuck in this shit" Billy yelled at Joey making me want to punch him in the face. He was being such a dickweed.

"What if I wanted to bring her with us? it's better than banging all those girls in the basement" Joey yelled back.

That's something I could have lived without knowing. Great way to find out you're next to a huge fuckboy!

"You wish you were the one banging all those girls" He sighted in frustration. "Plus why her? Huh? Why her? we've never brought anyone with us until now! We've never even brought Avery with us and we've known her for 4 fucking years"

I just stood there watching both of them yell at each other, Angela was taking way too long, it wasn't like she was calling a hot line.

Both started yelling at each other, bringing up stuff I wasn't aware about.

"CHILL THE FUCK OUT!" I yelled catching both of their attention. "Chill the fuck out" I repeated in a smooth tone.

"Alright, to the deans office we go" Angela announced. Making us seem like 6 year old by the way she was talking.

~

We got to the deans office in no time and Angela knocked on the door lightly and opened it after hearing the deans approval.

"Thank you Angela, you can go back now" The dean said turning his sight towards us while Angela left the office closing the door behind. "So, what brings you all here today and why are you all dripping wet?"

"Long story" Billy replied quickly, giving neither Joey or me time to say anything.

Billy didn't seem surprised nor scared about the fact that we were currently standing in front of the dean, it was almost as if it had no meaning to him. On the other side I was scared as fuck.

"I have all the time Tepper" The dean said surprisingly not loosing his patience like Angela previously had.

"It's a really hot today isn't it Sir?" Billy said calmly while playing with the pens and pencils on the desk. What the hell was he even doing?

I turned to look at Joey just to find he was as calm as Billy was.

"What does that have to do with any of this" The dean glanced quickly at Joey and me that were currently behind Billy. "Get to the point"

"Alright, alright, so what happened is that we were way too hot and decided to freshen up with the water hose" Billy lied.

In all honestly his story was somewhat believable, personally I would've had fell right into it but the real question was, would the dean fall for it?

"I want the truth Tepper" The dean said firmly. He didn't damnit.

"It's the truth" Billy said putting his hands on his desk while leaning onto it.

Billy was way to chill for a guy that was currently being questioned by one of the most powerful people in this building, I'm scared for my life to be honest.

"Is it? Trotta? Evans?" The dean turned to ask both of us.

"Yes, yes it is Sir" Joey said while we both nodded.

"Alright" The dean looked at us one by one almost as if he was planning our death. "I can't exactly prove you wrong so you'll only be getting pots and pans, starting on Monday"

"But why? We didn't exactly do anything wron-" Billy started.

"For skipping school and using the water hose without permission" The dean said picking the papers he had on his desk.

"Fuck" Joey cursed under his breath making the dean turn toward his direction.

"Except for you trotta" The dean said his expression screaming murder.

"Really?" Joey said surprised. "Thank you Sir, pots and pans drives me craz-"

"You'll be washing the bathrooms instead" The dean said clearly amused. "I hope you'll watch your language from now on"

"But-"

"No buts or if's Mr Trotta" The dean interrupt once again. "You can go now"

We all walked towards the door, Joey now in the lead. We stepped into the hallway, Billy closing the door behind.

"Well fuck" Joey cursed. I guess washing the bathrooms wasn't enough to make him stop his cursing.

"See you Monday on pots and pans" Billy said while walking towards the boys' dorms.

"I'll see you around Sky" Joey quickly waved at me not long after following behind Billy.

First day and I'm already in pots and pans. Great.
