One year, ten thousand bad moments
But it was dressed up in heated emotion
And I tried to look for the best in the worst
But like, fuck me, that caused a commotion
You're lucky I'm a private person
I've quietly carried your burden
And everyone thinks you're an angel
But shit, I would probably use different wording
Oh, you're so vicious
— vicious by sabrina carpenter
"excuse me what is going on here!" a teacher approaches the chaos thats going off in the hallway.
most kids scurried away except jaime, finney, billy, and griffin.
"come with me."
____
"he started with me!" finney defends.
"because he keeps throwing shade at me on social media" jaime back fires.
"okay i don't care about what's happening on instagram, why are you guys bringing it into my school?" the principal interrogates.
"because finney's scary and doesn't want to take it outside" griffin chimes in.
"shut up you only speak up when jaime's around" billy calls out.
the boys started going back and forth until their was a knock on the office door,
"come in!"
the boys quiet down when bruce, vance, and robin walking in with a teacher behind them, "they were skipping, i found them in the staircase."
the principal shakes his head in disapproval, "will my job ever get easier."
finney shifts uncomfortably at the sight of robin. jaime and griffin give each other knowing looks. jaime starts, "you're just jealous that robin wants me and not you."
finney slowly looks at billy and says, "who is he talking too?"
"yeah we saw you guys being friendly during detention, robin posted it on his story" griffin exposes and finney's face drops.
he looks over at robin who was just avoiding eye contact.
"UGH, i told you not post anything!" finney shrieks making griffin and jaime smirk successfully.
"you know what, detention for everyone after school, i'm not dealing with this" the principal throws his hands up in annoyance and dismissed everybody.
___________
robin and finney are back in detention, except this time with more company.
vance was shooting paper balls into the garbage, bruce sat quietly, listening to his music.
griffin was checking his snapchat notifications, jamie sat with his arm crossed while mean mugging everyone.
finney had his back turned to robin, purposely, to show that he didn't want to talk to him.
finney and billy were talking about whatever as robin tried not to say anything to finney.
"yo robin pull up" vance whispered yells. robin walks over and takes a seat next to him.
"you should talk to him" vance nudges his friend.
robin shakes his head, "hell no he embarrassed me."
"i'm not talking about jaime—"
"—i know" robin cuts off, hinting that he's talking about finney.
"it wasn't really that bad" vance defended.
bruce joins in, "no it was pretty bad."
vance struggles to hold in his laugh. he clears his throat, "you want to call him out about it?"
"all he's gonna do is post on snapchat talking about how irrelevant i am. 'guys this kid on the basketball team tried to start things with me el oh el" robin mocks, forgetting that finney is in the room.
"hello i can hear you" finney calls out and billy gives the three boys a weird look.
robin turns to face him, "you can't say that wasn't a good impression."
jaime and griffin shared a snarky look.
"what's your problem?" finney asked and crossed his arms.
robin and the boys began, "ugh why would you post that."
"omg my followers are going to think—"
"what if someone thinks i'm a loser now"
finney jumps out of his seat but billy holds him back.
"uh oh, should i go live and humiliate you even more" griffin gloats waving his phone around.
"i love being the most hated" finney says sarcastically.
"apparently i'm the most hated" robin returns with a weird look.
finney pouts sarcastically, "aw, did i hurt your feelings robin."
"aw did i hurt your social status finney" robin fires back
as the tension continued to rise in the detention room, vance attempted to lighten the mood, saying, "guys, can we chill? we're all stuck here together."
"no because your ass was talking shit too" finney points out and shot a glare at robin, "you think embarrassing me on social media is cool?"
robin responds "i didn't do anything wrong. you think you're that influential to the point where people care about who you hang out with."
jaime being eager to stir the pot chimed in, "yes! humble him."
"honestly this is better than any reality show i've watched" griffin cheered, enjoying the chaos.
bruce huffed annoyed, "can you guys shut the fuck up."
billy starts, "who even are you?" finney nods his head in agreeing.
"don't play with my friend bruce! what is wrong with you" jaime hypes up.
"what jaime said" bruce highlights and crosses his arms.
eventually the arguing dies down as time is going by slowly... slowly... slowly.
BYE! it's time to go y'all.
everyone leaves detention feeling more irritated than when they first came in.
finney and billy separated from everybody and it only being around six o' clock they decided to go to target.
"they're a bunch of haters, there's really not much to say about it" finney shrugs.
walking up and down the isles of a nice target is somewhat therapeutic.
finney and billy were currently in the section with all of the stuff animals.
meanwhile on the other side of the store held three other boys who were in the alcohol section.
"it's simple, each of us is going to hide one bottle under our shirts its really not that big of a deal" bruce explains with his hand on a bottle of... water.
"okay fine but just know that this is stupid as hell" robin reluctantly grabs a bottle of wine, vance grabs a hard liquor as well as bruce.
the boys went to walk out of the isle but were stopped.
it's almost like finney and billy just teleported.
finney tightens his grip on a squishmallow that he just purchased. finney couldn't help but notice the boys walking into the alcohol section on his way to self-check out.
finney furrows his eyebrows in fake confusion, "what are y'all doing—"
"nothing" the three boys answered a little too quickly.
billy nods and gives his best friend a look. finney passes the squishmallow to billy and takes a step forward, "well i feel very bad about the situation that happened earlier in detention. just wanted to say sorry."
robin looks at bruce and vance who were just confused as he was.
robin shifts uncomfortably because of finney's eyes staring directly into his and the glass of the bottle feeling cold against his bare stomach.
"um... well—"
vance cuts him off, "were sorry too, for mocking you."
finney nods and looks at robin as he walks closer to him, billy holds back his smirk by pouting out his bottom lip.
"how about we hug to make sure the vibes are just right" finney smirks opens his arms.
robin squirms as finney wraps his arms around him quickly.
this makes robin lose the grip of the bottle.
finney quickly steps back and watches the bottle shatter, with red wine splattering everywhere—making a mess on the ground, just what he wanted.
"clean up on isle five!" finney taunts loudly. billy laughs out loud as him and finney link arms, leaving the boys to deal with the mess.
employees obviously heard the loud shatter of the glass breaking so one of them walk over to the boys who were still kind of in shock.
"hey!" the women yells out. the boys snap back into reality and run out of the store as fast as they could.
damn you finney blake.
