Vera broke out into a smile. “Sure!”

"Mhm, that's great, hon." Bridge walked over towards the girl's bathroom, beckoning for Vera to come with.

Vera’s nervousness began to kick in as she followed. As soon as they were inside the bathroom, she turned to Bridge. “Tay’s not my boyfriend, if that’s what you were gonna say.”, she blurted.

"Great!" Bridge smiled, "Because you see, Tay is mine." she circled Vera, almost like a shark circles their prey. "And I want you to stay away from him." Bridge grabbed the sketchbook out of Vera's hand. "If you don't, well, you wouldn't want something bad to happen to him would you?" Bridge flipped through the book, "Poor Tay. Who only wants a good future. It would be such a shame if he were to be involved with breaking and entering a closed arcade, wouldn't it?" she smiled, "It would go on his record." Bridge grinned, "Stay away from him."

(Oh crap)

Vera froze. “I thought you were his friend?”

"Maybe even more." Bridge gave Vera the sketchbook back and sauntered out of the restroom, "If you tell him about this, I'll tell the chief of police about the arcade incident." Bridge turned and faced Vera, "Oh, and did you know that my daddy is the chief of police?" she blew a kiss, "Just though you'd want to know."

Vera stayed rooted to the spot, horrified, hands trembling. This is why you keep your goddamn guard up! Anyways, it doesn’t matter, you’ll be fine without him. She was lying. But how had Bridge known?

Tay ate his rice in silence as Bridge came back, "Hey Bridge, where's Vera?"
Bridge smiled, "Just, washing her hands, I guess."
"What'd you guys do?" Tay said after a spoonful of rice.
"Well, wouldn't you like to know!" Bridge teased, "Girl stuff."

(Damn that was a good plot twist!)

Vera locked herself in a bathroom stall, shaking. This is regular high school stuff, shrug it off. You’ll be fine without Tay. Again, she was lying. She clenched her teeth. Ill just stay in here. she told herself. I have to change anyways. Vera pulled a pad from her hidden sweater pocket.

Tay stood up, "Should I go check on her?"
Kamè laughed, "C'mon man, you don't check in when Bridge says 'girl stuff'. It's like a taboo." he patted Tay's shoulder, "Do you wanna go get cinnamon rolls after school today?"

Vera stayed firmly in the stall, determined not to ruin everything for Tay. She opened her sketchbook, hands quivering, and began to draw.

"Sounds great." Tay looked towards the bathroom, "But…"
Loilai smiled, "I'll get her." and walked towards the bathroom, entering through the door.

Vera heard someone entered and went silent immediately.

"Vera?" Loilai asked, "You here?"

“Give me a sec.”, Vera replied, pretending to finish up, slowly opening the door.

Loilai brightened at the sight of Vera, "Hey! Tay was worried about you."

Vera went faintly pink, hyperventilating inside. Crapcrapcrapcrapceapcrap “oh— um… Thanks.”

Vera went faintly pink, hyperventilating inside. Crapcrapcrapcrapceapcrap “oh— um… Thanks.”

"You're welcome?" Loilai smiled, "Now, let's go back, huh?"

Vera froze. “Um—- sure?” What do I do?!?!?!?!

Loilai headed out, checking that Vera was coming as well, "Tay! I found her!"

Vera took a deep breath to steady herself before walking back to the table, avoiding eye contact.

Tay stood up and hugged Vera, "Missed you." he started packing his lunch, "Do you want to go get cinnamon rolls with me and Kamè?"

Vera caught the dangerous look in Bridge’s eye. “Um…”

"It'll be fun!" Tay didn't notice Bridge's glare.
