TAMING A CLASS

CHAPTER TWENTY

DERRICK'S POV

I heard out waiting to hear the loud sound or Mr. Derrick, but there was nothing.

Climbing down the stairs, i stared at everywhere again, the place was massive.

Looking up at the gargoyle that was rested on the pillars, i couldn't see them when we came in because there were facing forward but now that i was coming closer, i saw them with their regular golden mark and their were fierce looking adding more to scare the shit out of me.

Wiping off the feels from my body, i continued my mission till i heard voices, it sounded familiar.

Tiptoeing closely, i went through the spiral steps, i was a few hundred steps before them when I saw him Mr. Derrick talking to the driver i think.

I couldn't hear what the were saying cause if the distance, i stayed still knowing if i made another step they would see me.

Seems like luck shined in me cause they were moving now and fast.

Running down the stairs, i looked up to see they disappeared towards a turning.

Now i couldn't see them, i increased my speed feeling my legs burn at the rate i was going.

I got to the entrance by my left, i took a good 45 minutes to arrive there, i stayed still trying to catch my breath, my throat felt dry and sore.

I tried taking in sharp breath but it got painful, leaning against the wall, I fell in my butt, breathing heavily.

How were they using this stairs?

Remind me again why we have elevators and ........

I watched the surroundings, watching for any guards that may come up, i didn't need anybody sabotaging this mission for me.

It took ten minutes till i was well rested, i got up quickly knowing that I had long lost them.

Entering the hallways i saw a tag on the wall.

The Lord's chamber.

This must be the head's house, wonder what it looks like.

I entered surprised to see Mr. Derrick leaning in the wall, what was he doing there?

Where was the other guy?

He looked hopeless, why?

Walking right past him, he didn't notice until i was a few feets in front of him.

I saw he finally noticed me, he looked shocked, surprised, and angry.

Well, I knew i breach the rules, but what were they expecting of me.

I was Dan Bliss, the fearless, badass rule breaker, a title i adored.

"What are you doing here?" He asked surprised.

I expected this question, but i expected him to be angry, disappointed even.

He was more surprised than anything, seems like he needed my help.

One i was going to make him work for it, my own way.

I smirked up at him, this was going to be fun, I thought as i got myself to rest up the opposite wall a few feet away from him.

"Thought i could join the fun, you know" i said shrugging my shoulder casually.

Like we were discussing the weather or what i had for breakfast.

"What fun? You are not supposed to come here, leave now" he said demandingly.

Now was the Derrick i knew, he wasn't used to my taunting.

I got off the wall, daringly i asked "Or what?"

He was pissed, beyond pissed, i knew it but i couldn't help but to press his buttons, it was fun.

I noticed i liked getting him riled up.

"Bliss, i don't have time to deal with your childish tantrum now. Just leave and await punishment." He said dismissing me as if i were a child.

I knew my way around trouble, i had my fair share too, i did this knowing u broke an important rule but i wasn't going to do it for nothing.

I would get my answers, then punishment later.

I humphed at him now annoyed "Says the guy who i saw leaning up against a wall, and what? You gonna give me detention, like i cared"

I did care, if i was locked out, what would happen to Hailey.

Then we heard a sound of struggle, our heads turned towards the source of the sound.

This was the more reason I had to stay "Now that's the reason i am here"

He furrowed my brows not really understanding what I meant, seeing his confusion i spoke up again "Tonight... The movies... Sounds... Ring a bell?" I asked.

"How many people heard it?" He asked me now afraid, like i would know..

I just shrugged my shoulder "I don't know, they were all immersed in that crappy movie, chewing loudly" i said remembering how the wrapper, and nylons were the things I heard more than the movie.

"Leave Bliss, I'm the adult here. I will handle" he tried to dismiss me again.

I wasn't having it.

I scoffed at him saying "Says the guy who is only five years older and seriously were you gonna solve it by making statues over there..." I  stopped now smirking as I moved closer to me, my hands in my denim jeans.

"...Or you too scared to get in there and sort it out like a real man." Then I was gone before he could get another comeback or pick his senses up and dismissed me again.

"Bliss!!!" He shouted running after me.

He was a few feet to me now, when I turned back and chuckled.

He looked at like i was insane, was i insane? Definitely nope, just curious.

"And here i thought, you were afraid to come in." I said suddenly.

Then he froze, taking in the surrounding, afraid i said something, i halted trying to see what was wrong with him.

He started laughing hysterically, he was happy, why? sniffling the air to check for any strange smell, there wasn't, okay, something's is off here now.

Is this where he kills me now?

He continued staring at the surroundings and me, hasn't he been here before?

Why was he looking at me like that? Like I just did something good for him.

He laughed once more, then went in, tapping me on my shoulder a little turning towards me who was staring at him cautiously.

Smiling up at me, he said as he picked up speed again "Let's go"

"Uh... Yea, let's go catch some ghost" i said trying to soothe the weird atmosphere.

He just smiled and nodded his head at me,

Okay, that was weird but we got in.
