September 3 2022
Two days has past since the incident, Not only was Desmond expelled from school because of his vicious assault on Steve, Steve was left with two black eyes, three broken teeth and a broken nose. And his assault went viral and was posted on every social media platform and everyone were speaking their thoughts about it.
Desmond has been extremely silent about it, But that dah his mother said that they were going to move out of Iowa and settle in Orlando Florida after everything that happened and Lexy was dropped out of school.
After reaching Orlando, They reach to their home and fell asleep since they were too exhausted from the car ride.
In the morning, Desmond was seen arranging something in his closet and stretched out. Yesterday his mother arranged a school for him and warned Desmond to not cause any trouble. Today was his first day as Crowe was getting ready before looking at himself in the mirror.
Desmond combed his hair and looked at himself until he heard a knock on his door.
Desmond: Yeah?
The door opened as He turned around and saw his sister.
Lexy: Hey Desmond, Have you gotten ready?
Desmond: I just finished sis.
Lexy: Good to hear, I hope you will have a good day at school.
Desmond: Thanks. I'll be downstairs in a few minutes.
Lexy: No problem, Honestly it feels odd leaving Iowa but it's for our best.
Desmond was looking at her and understood that leaving their hometown was a bit sad.
Desmond: Your right Lexy, But Everything will be alright.
Lexy: Your right, Especially I won't see my classmates and teachers or just anyone I knew since I dropped out.
He felt sad and had a frown on his face, Because of what he did his sister had to drop out of school and would never see her friends again. Crowe was silent and looked at the ground as Lexy looked at him with concern.
Lexy: Are you okay?
Desmond: I'm sorry, Its all because of me.
Lexy: What? No don't say that, Desmond.
Desmond: I wish but all of this happened because of me.
Lexy: Look, What happened is now over. We have to move on now and I never blamed you Desmond.
Desmond looked at his sister as Lexy shared a hug with him, Desmond hugged her back before they broke the hug.
Desmond: Thanks Lexy.
Lexy: No problem, Desmond.
Desmond gave a smile to her as Lexy smiled at him.
Lexy: Lets get going.
Desmond continued smiling and nodded as Lexy smiled at him before she walked away as Crowe went to help his sister.
Soon, They made it downstairs Desmond's mother Jenna was sitting in the dining table, Both of them haven't really spoken that much except when Jenna told him about moving out. They also didn't want to speak about the incident.
Breakfast was prepared as Lexy and Desmond sat down and were eating their breakfast as Jenna was looking at Desmond. After sometime Desmond was finally done with his breakfast as He grabbed his bag while his sister was looking at him.
Desmond: Alright, I'm gonna head out. See you later and take care of yourself, Lexy.
Lexy: Of course! Take care, Desmond!
Desmond smiled as Lexy gave him another hug, He hugged her back before leaving as his mother was looking at him until she said something.
Jenna: Take care, Desmond.
She just stared at him as Crowe looked at her and was silent, He just nodded as Lexy was looking at both of them before Desmond left the house while Lexy decided to go to her room since she was going to start school tomorrow.
Eventually Desmond made it to his school as He entered the school and looked and saw several students standing at the corridor as Crowe was looking around the school, It was a bit different then his school.
Desmond continued walking while holding his bag until Crowe noticed someone was waving at him as He turned around and saw someone.
The man gave him a sign to "Come here" as Desmond decided to see what the man wanted and approached to him as The man gave a smile to him.
???: Hey there!
Desmond: Hi there.
???: Are you new to this school? Never seen a big guy like you.
Desmond looked at him as The man continued to smile at him.
Desmond: Yeah I'm new here, Its my first day and thanks for the compliment.
???: I see and No problem. My name is Benjamin McFarland by the way.
Desmond: My name is Desmond Crowe.
Benjamin: Nice to meet you, Desmond.
Benjamin seemed like a kind man to Desmond, Crowe smiled at him and shooked his hands as Both of them were walking together until someone called Benjamin's name as They both saw who it was.
This was Cody Rhodes, He is eighteen years old and is Benjamin's best friend.
Cody: Hey Benji, What's up?
Benjamin: Hey Cody! Nothing much, I met this guy.
Cody: *Looks at Desmond* Your new here?
Desmond: Yeah I am.
Cody: Dang, You're a big guy.
Desmond: Thats what Benjamin said to me as well.
Benjamin and Cody laughed a little as Desmond smiled at them as Benjamin said something.
Benjamin: You seem like a good person. How about we talk more?
Cody: Yeah and We are friendly. Compare to most students in this school.
Desmond looked at him as The three were walking as Benjamin and Cody were talking while Desmond was listening to them and was talking until they heard a female's voice who walked towards Benjamin and shared a kiss with him.
Roxanne Perez, She is eighteen years old and is Benjamin's girlfriend.
Roxanne: Hey!
Benjamin: *Chuckles* Hello, sweetheart.
Desmond was looking at the couple as Cody said something to him.
Cody: Thats Benjamin's girlfriend by the way.
Desmond: I can tell actually.
Roxanne: Looks like you two made a new friend?
Benjamin: He is actually a new guy so that's why we thought about talking to him.
Roxanne: I see. My name is Roxanne Perez by the way.
Desmond gave a small smile and greeted her, When Cody, Benjamin and Roxanne were talking to eachother. Desmond was silent until he heard a laughter of girls as Crowe turned around and saw someone who was drinking from a Pepsi bottle.
Disha Patani was drinking a Pepsi Bottle while Pooja, Rashmika and Mandy were laughing at a joke as Disha began laughing as well.
Desmond was staring at them especially at Disha, The woman looked beautiful especially her smile. Crowe couldn't help but stare at her as She was talking to her friends.
Rashmika: Yaar App mujhe vah botal kyon nahin de dete? ( Why dont you give me that bottle?)
Disha: *Laughs* Aapane kaaphee pee liya (You drinked enough)
Mandy: What happened to you, Rashmika?
Pooja: Hahaha Oh she wants to drink some Pepsi.
Mandy: Wow, Haven't you drinked already?
Rashmika: *Pouts* I want more
Rashmika tried to grab the bottle jokingly as Disha laughed and moved away as The group of girls were laughing as Desmond was staring at Disha and smiled a little.
Rashmika: Main agalee baar miloonga! (I'll get you next time!)
Pooja: Kaee baar Rashmika kee chetaavanee gambheer hotee hai. *Looks at Mandy* Sometimes Rashmika's warning is serious
Rashmika gave an innocent smile as the girls continued laughing while Desmond was looking at them until Disha turned around and saw him.
Desmond looked at her for a second before immediately turning as Disha was looking at Desmond until she heard someone's voice.
Finn: Ladies, What is with all the laughter?
Mandy: We are just troubling, Rashmika.
Pooja: Don't worry, Rashmika. We will buy you another drink.
Rashmika: Okay, I'll wait.
Finn: *Chuckles* I see.
Crowe looked at Finn and raised an eyebrow until Desmond heard the bell ringing as the first subject was physics as Benjamin looked at Desmond.
Benjamin: Its your first class now. Let's get going.
Cody: Thats right.
Roxanne: Do you like physics?
Desmond: Not really actually.
They nodded and smiled at eachother as Desmond walked upstairs while Pooja, Rashmika and Mandy walked away as Disha looked at her boyfriend.
Disha: Chaldar (Let's go)
Finn: Actually I'm going to skip class.
Disha: Skip? Finn can you just attend class, Otherwise you will be in trouble.
Finn: Hah! Come on Disha, Physics is boring and school is just boring. How about you follow me?
Disha: I can't Finn, We will get in trouble. Can you please come?
Finn rolled his eyes and sighed as Disha was looking at him while grabbing his hand.
Finn: Fine.
Disha smiled at him as They walked towards the physics class as All the students were sitting as Disha sat down while fixing her hair.
Desmond was looking around until he noticed Disha who was fixing her hair as Desmond was looking at her until she turned around and caught him.
Desmond stared at her as She gave a friendly smile and looked at Pooja as Desmond continued looking at her while Finn was on his phone.
