Take Your Mask Off

Guess who is back back back? Back again -gain -gain.

Yep sorry for being innactive for so long! Like I said I wasn't in the best state of mind to even write.

But here I am now. I will try to update more regularly.

Okay sooo without further ado let's get started

???'s POV

I reached Megan's home and knocked the door softly. I was keeping my hood on people wouldn't recognize me.

Megan opened the door "You are late."

"nice to see you too Megs."

"Don't call me that." She huffed and let me inside "Did anyone follow you?"

"Nope sis."

"Again. Don't call me that. Pull yourself together, you are getting on my nerves"

"I helped you." I said as I leaned on the wall taking a sip from my coffee "So spill the tea sis. What happened with your prince charming?"

Megan smiled widely, in a.. Rather twisted way "Oh Roman-Love? I have him under my control. Thanks for the photo by the way. You should have seen his face" she smirked

"Pleasured doing business with you. So what now? Why did you want to meet me here?" I leaned back on the wall and took another sip

"I need you to spy on Virgil. Find his weak spots. I might have to hurt him at the end"

I almost choked "What?! You said you were just gonna threaten him, not actually hurt him."

"Well I would. But he is driving me nuts." she growled "So just do that. Chop chop. I need a list with his weaknesses"

"So... You want me to STALK someone. Nah bruh. That's extra even for you."

"Ugh Remy Remy Remy. So naïve. You think you actually have a choice? I'm pretty sure your parents would be glad to learn about your.. Little dirty and dark past." she smirked again. Curse you Megan. Curse you.

"Hah. You really know how to threaten someone don't ya?" I looked at my coffee, playing with the straw "Deal. I'll do it. But know that you might seem all kind and caring but you are the real snake, and the sooner or later you will have to take your mask off." I walked to the door "Speaking of snakes, you owe me money for the spreying paint bottles I used for Derek's locker Mkay sis?" I walked out, putting my hood back on.

~The next day~

Logan's POV

"Derek Derek wait!" I ran to him, catching up walking with him

"Hi Logan." Derek looked at me confused "Um what's up?"

"Are you alright? Because of all this bullying you know, preposterous." I said nervously and looked at him, fixing my glasses

"Uh-huh. Yea I'm good. Why do you care though?"

"Listen Derek, you acted like a real, big, lying jerk but, you still don't deserve this sort of treatment. So I'm asking, do you need any help?"

"Aw is lil Logan sympathizing the snake of the school? How heartwarming. Nice act." Derek walked faster

"No wait, I'm serious. I'm always serious."

"And unsympathetic. Especially for someone like me. So drop the act and leave the lies on Meg- me."

"what were you going to say?" I looked at him. Did he almost say Megan? Why? What is he talking about?

"Me. That's what I was gonna and what I did say. Bye." he quickly walked away. Oh. Something smelled fishy here and no I'm not talking about the trash at the school bins - what in Plato's name are they feeding us in the cafeteria?!- Derek was acting weird. Weirder than usual.

I got to class and stepped in nervously. Today it was the day we would present that part of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet to the class. 

"hey Logan!" i heard a cheerful voice behind me

"Oh salutations Patton"

"Ready for the play?" he giggles softly and started playing with his sleeve nervously "Good luck Logan" he said with a sweet voice

"I mean I'm not doing anything special, just the l-"

"Just say Thank you for the name of Shakespeare!" Harley growled behind Patton "Jeez Logan"

"I em- Apologies.." I said nervously

"It's alright heh.." Patton said and walked in the class, sitting at the back

"Great job Logan" Harley sighed and walked inside as well. I stood awkwardly for a moment. What did I do?!

Roman's POV

I walked into the school nervously trying not to bump on Megan.. Or Virgil.. I knew I'd have to face them both in theater class but ugh this was a tragedy. I can't keep this up for too long.. I need to break up with Virgil even though I really don't want to..

By the time I walked into the class, everyone was already there.

"Roman-" I heard Virgil's voice. I quickly ran to the back and sat down, pretending I didn't hear him. I can swear that I saw Megan smirking as Virgil was turning away from me , hurt and confused..

"Attention class ! It's finally time to show what you have been working on. First team... Um Megan's team with the balcony scene."

Megan and the rest of her team stood up and walked at the front of the glass. I glanced over them. I'll be honest, I couldn't help but feel horrible for Derek. He was standing a bit away from Megan, awkwardly, looking down. I glared at the students that were giving him nasty looks. Anyway, they started acting. Megan was Juliet while Derek was Romeo. The others were helping to ""create the atmosphere"". I gotta admit that both of them were incredible.

At the end everyone applauded and Megan bowed slightly, smiling sweetly.

"Excellent job miss Valentine. You and your team can sit down. Next one is.. Roman, Harley, Patton, Logan and Virgil? With the death scene." I stood up and saw the rest of my team doing the same. When we walked at the front of the class, I noticed that none of us was 100% dedicated to what we were doing. Everyone seemed to be thinking of something..

We started acting the best way we could. When we finished we also got applauded.

"excellent job to you too Mr Brown." the teacher smiled to us softly and we all returned to our seats. I glanced over at Virgil who turned his back to me. I sighed and sunk into my seat.

Other teams stood up, performing their part of the play. After we finished, the teacher was smiling widely "Excellent job kids! I had an idea and since you all acted amazing, I think my idea is more rational! I was thinking, perform the whole play at the end of the year! How does that sound?"

Alla students cheered, me included. This was going to be epic!!

"the casting will take place a week before closing for Winter holidays which means you have about a week to prepare. Derek, Roman, Collin. I'd love to see you casting for Romeo. You did an outstanding job today." the teacher adds. This was my chance to get a leading role in a big school play! It could be something like the beginning of my career.. I had to get that role..
