{Part 2: This can either end really bad or really good

     "Oh my god we're gonna get into so much shit if Mrs. Harr finds us back here," I shout whisper to my retarded friends.
     "Relax Alivia, the more you worry and complain, the more chance we have of getting caught dumbass. Stay quiet and we'll be fine," Serena laughs.
     My anxiety takes over, my stomach flips and a lump grows in my throat. My thoughts are interrupted as I hear a pack of aggressive teenage boys pile onto the small bus.
     "Yeoooo these Middie bitches don't know what they're in for." Shouts what it sounds to be Nate. Serena and I had thought he was the hottest thing the school had in 8th grade.
     "Facts, bouta take this dub," laughs Carlos.
     "Oh my god. Carlos is back from juvy already? I thought he'd be in there until the end of the year at least." Serena whispers, fear evident in her voice.
     "Do you guys even know what he did exactly?" Chloe chimes in.
     "I heard he was apart of an armed robbery over at the corner store, he drove the getaway car I guess." I whisper.
     "I heard he got into one too many drunk fights," Chloe replies.
     "I heard he got caught selling and taking xanax at school," Serena looks at us with wide eyes.
     "Well which one is it, damn this kid is mad lucky. He was there for like two weeks. That's it." Serena chuckles, hiding her nerves.
      "Boys. Simmer down, simmer dow- SHUT THE FUCK UP SMITH!" Mr. Parkams screams at Robby. We all try not to laugh, ducking behind some empty seats in the back.
     "I just peed a little bit." Serena giggles wide eyed.
     "Oh my god Serena, you know who you're seeing today right?" Chloe and I say in unison. Serena stays quiet.
     "We're gonna kick some middie ass! Go out there and give your all, on the count of three. 1, 2, 3, 'RAIDERS!'" The team screams. The bus pulls up to Drashtet High. Home of the Middies.
     "Here we are," Chloe smiles. The boys exit the bus chanting a useless phrase no one can understand, and then we exit.
     "This can either end really bad or really good," I laugh, hugging my two friends by the sides as we walk into the doors of the large school.
