Mum called me up during the middle of the night, and I can't say that it was a peasant phone call because it wasn't. I got scolded and one thing that I really hated is that I get scolded by my mum.

"One step out of line and you're getting back here, do you understand me?" Mum asked, her tone so unlike her normal, gentle voice. She was exploding on me and I haven't got anything to do about it.

I wiped a tear from my face. I hated this feeling. I was in tears, not because mum was saying those words of me getting back there over and over, but because I know I disappointed her.

I leaned my head against the wall, the room was dark and peacefully quiet. I've seen Niall shuffling, tossing and turning, but I know him well enough that he's awake.

I bit my lip, wiping the tears again. "I'll see you soon, mum. I love you." I said and then ended the call.

They said, one wrong move and I'll be back in England. . . at least one last wrong move.

I didn't take long to decide what I wanted to and how I would do it. I just wanted it, for once, I didn't care how many people will get in the way.

Tomorrow, there should be a big event, I just couldn't recall what. Most of the school halls will be empty and I was told where Nathan Hallows would be. He's suspended but coaches and athletes seemed to have a great influence. . . so he should be there.

I went to sleep, knowing that it might just be my last days here in Canada. One wrong move tomorrow, and I'm back home. If I didn't fail, it'd be Nathan Hallows on a plane back to England. Either way, I won't care how it ends. . .

The next day, I was fine and Niall had invited me to go somewhere, an event but I had my headphones on so I wasn't listening.

I slightly wished Taylor didn't interrupt last time with the fight, but she did and just the mere thought of it irritates me. Nathan is still walking around, being a complete arse because of that!

I put earplugs in my ears, so I don't have to hear anything and put my headphones over it, playing loud music. I can hear a bit but it's just mostly, the loud music. And then I got to work.

My work was doubled as I didn't have my laptop with me, it just makes me angrier but I kept myself in control. I borrowed Niall's laptop with a sworn oath that I'll give it to him the way it was.

I didn't put too much effort in it. I didn't need to. I just have to get out of the source of the prank before it happens. And since, I didn't have my one and only laptop that had everything I needed, it took me a while to get everything done because the CCTV's are all pains in the ass.

The set up took me a few hours, but eventually, it was timing that Nathan was in their gym. From there, the gym was connected to the halls and then it'll be a chain reaction. Again, the hallways will rain. . . all of them.

I never used firecrackers before, I hated them but if that's his game, I'll just do what I do best, screw things up.

Expensive. . . that's what I would call this but my allowance for the week that I'm suspended paid for it.

I looked at my wristwatch, at exactly 1:49 PM, everything will go to hell because that is almost the same time Nathan will have his swim. Flipping the switch, he will not only be opening the swimming pools. . . he will actually set the school aflame, just enough to make every hallway rain.

They really should have changed the smoke alarms because of the numerous times they've been a hindrance but it's their loss. I've heard the principal was busy of something else.

I sat in one of the hallways, eating and apple and watching some leagues videos. There should be a notification, the blinker at the upper right corner of the screen will turn from red to green if I needed to get out because that meant everything is activated. Which meant the strings of firecrackers above every hallway will be lit up continuously because of the gasoline, also causing the smoke alarms to be activated.
