Ch16 Lost Chains Can Get Caught
"Oh, my head. I think I could die, no I will die at this rate." Mr. Davis moaned with his head trapped in his hands as we all surrounded his chair.
I don't think I have ever been happier with Mr. Davis fainting, but I am now. Don't get me wrong, I really like him but I hate suspension more than I like him. Beside when we will give him a loving boyfriend like Mr. Cruz, I sure hope it will be compensated.
We all fussed around him, Mr. Cruz checking his temperature and figuring out how could a grown adult be so hangover by just a can of beer, and we were busy stopping him figure it out. We already succeeded in hiding Nathan before Mr. Cruz came running to Mr. Davis scooping him in his arms to bring him to a chair. Ben may or may not had clicked some pictures.
"Sir, lunch is ready. You all should come and eat." came a students voice who deflated a little when we all looked at him including Mr. Cruz and Mr. Davis.
"Is Ms. Wilson free now? She was helping with lunch right?" asked Mr. Cruz with his usual strict voice.
"She went to the hut for some work after helping with lunch." muttered the student, with scared voice. But Mr. Cruz only nodded curtly.
"Come on, get up. You'll feel good after eating something." Mr. Cruz said to Mr. Davis softly while supporting him taking all of his weight on himself.
"How are we gonna hide Nathan from Mr. Cruz's eyes. He also needs to eat something, bringing him food to the tent would be too suspicious." asked Luke whispering.
"Let's make half circle and put him behind us." I suggested the plan which we always do and everyone agreed.
We picked up Nathan from our tent and got him behind us. Me, Ben and Noah on the front and Luke who helped Nathan walk straight at the back. We sat on the table farthest from the teacher's one. As Luke helped Nathan eat and Noah covered him so nobody could see past Noah.
"I don't think we need to cover so much. Look at Mr. Cruz, it's as if he can't see anything beside Mr. Davis." said Ben as he clicked some zoomed in shots of them.
We all looked at them even Nathan tried opening his eyes to look at the couple, where Mr. Cruz tried feeding Mr. Davis. And Mr. Davis looked like he was whining and complaining about his head, I still can't figure out how a grown man can look so cute whining and complaining. Mr. Cruz has standards I see.
"We do get karma." groaned Nathan as his head tried killing him.
-------------------------------
We had successfully dumped Nathan back to the tent, Mr. Cruz did look at us with a little raised brow as we were walking kind of sideways to get Nathan out. But I am quite certain he hadn't seen him, since me, Noah and Ben are quite tall to hide Nathan and Luke.
"Peter, come here." came Mr. Cruz's voice as we came back from our tent. Had he really seen us? He had frown on his face, but that was his usual expression. Still dread filled me and the stiffened friends of mine also looked like they were petrified.
"Yes sir, right away sir." I said hurriedly and followed him but to my surprise he took me to the kitchen area. And I looked at him confused.
"You know how to make lemonade?" He asked and I nodded gesturing a yes.
"Can you make one for your Mr. Davis, he needs one." he said not looking me in the eyes and oh boy, was that a little blush that I see on him. I was so tempted to click a picture right now, but I don't think he'll appreciate it.
"Of course sir, you take such good care of Mr. Davis. I am sure he'll get better in no time." I said subtly teasing him, and the reaction I got was pretty satisfying too as his ears started becoming red. But he just shrugged making a poker face.
I started making lemonade, secretly making more for Nathan too.
"I am sure he'll get better. But I need to find the people who spiked his drink. Once I find that person, I would make sure to suspend them." Mr. Cruz said with underlying anger.
I gulped as I handed him the lemonade glass with a little shaking hands, trying to keep a smile on my face, didn't look like I succeeded. But Mr. Cruz was not paying attention to me with his entire focus on the glass.
I went back to the tent where everybody was since nobody bothered going to any exploring or anything.
"I don't think we are safe, Mr. Cruz is trying to find the culprit who had spiked his drink." I said with a sigh sitting down, giving Nathan the lemonade I made.
"He wasn't looking angry was he?" asked Ben.
"Oh you bet he was, he looked really angry." I said defeated.
"Some people said he has been asking questions around, he had even discovered the glass bottle which we had stolen. He found it hidden under a seat where Nathan had thrown it." said Luke.
"We should have cleared the evidences, at this rate we won't even be alive to conduct our plan." I said. And we all sighed tired.
"I also heard Ms. Wilson is helping Mr. Davis with his hangover." Ben said and we all heard Nathan's weak voice saying 'really', with happiness.
"Sorry Nathan but you guys won't believe what I saw." I said excitedly and recited everything that happened. Everyone was shocked and giddy after I finished.
"Oh My God he BLUSHED!?!" nearly shouted Ben.
"Yes. he did." I answered, happily.
But before anyone could gush more, a student called us from outside our tent. We opened it to see Jackson, my teammate.
"Mr. Cruz has asked everyone to come out and meet him, he said he has something important to say." Jackson informed us. So we all followed him.
We reached the open field where Mr. Cruz was standing and all the students stood with curious faces.
"So, as you all know, someone has spiked Mr. Davis's drink. And we are going to catch the criminal right now." Mr. Cruz said in loud voice, and all five of us broke into cold sweat.
He extended his hand, from which dangled a cool looking chain. " Now whose gonna tell me about this chain's owner?" Mr. Cruz asked and my breath stopped.
Because this chain belongs to none other than Noah, and as everyone's head looked over to him, I knew everyone know as well.
We are really doomed, Aren't we.
