• YOU WANT THE BODY BACK? YOU WANT YOUR SECRET SAFE? THEN KILL PEARL WILSON.

The phone fell from Jeremy's shaky fingers, landing on the soil then sliding into the pit from there.

"Who the hell...is this?" He muttered, blood draining from his face.

"If you're confident enough show me your damn face!!!" He yelled, standing on his feet.

His voice echoed in the forest, and he looked around, but only the sound of nocturnal animals could be heard.

He looked back into the pit where his phone fell, and another drop of snot came out of his nose.

He wiped with his palm before jumping in the pit to get the phone.

He climbed out and inserted his fingers into his mouth, biting his nails while scratching his hair hard with the other hand.

RAVE*

"Why would you say that?" Rebekah faced Teal immediately Pearl left for the washroom.

"I only said something harmless and I didn't know the music would go off at that same moment. I didn't know she'd deny it and I didn't know Banks would be mad about it too" Teal replied innocently, and Rebekah smirked.

"Banks? Mad?" She muttered, coming closer.

"You'd try a lot more if you wanna make him mad" she said to her face, and Teal blinked as Rebekah turned around, following Pearl.

"Are you really part of the friendship?" Sybil asked immediately.

"Huh?" Teal faced her.

"I mean... Rebekah doesn't seem to like you" Sybil replied, taking a sip from her solo cup of rue.

"We're cool, she's just overbearing" Teal smiled.

"I can't believe the first guy I took interest in has a thing with my cousin. My bad luck" Sybil sighed, swirling the drink in her cup.

"You heard when she said there's nothing between them" Teal replied.

"Meaning?" Sybil blinked.

"You can still shoot your shot, girl!" Teal encouraged.

Sybil smiled after a while.

"You're right" she snapped her fingers.

"Here" Isaac arrived with the drink.

"Thank you" Teal took the cup from him and clinked it with Sybil's cup.

"I like you, cheers!" She said.

"Cheers!" Teal smiled.

WASHROOM*

Pearl backed the zinc bowl, one hand on her forehead and the other one on her hips as she rested on it.

Various thoughts were spiralling through her mind as she stood there, and she didn't blink till Rebekah came in.

"Why did you say that?" Rebekah asked, walking to her.

"Say what?"

"Say they meant nothing! Are you for real?" Rebekah replied.

"You're acting like a mother right now. That's my roleplay" Pearl said.

"Well I'm switching roles with you tonight" Rebekah replied, and Pearl chuckled softly.

"Don't change the subject, why did you do it?" Rebekah asked.

"But it's true. All the kisses were forceful and aggressive that we ended up biting each other. They were just kisses, no strings attached" Pearl replied.

"But he's the only guy you don't get triggered by, yeah?" Rebekah said.

"And Jeremy" Pearl replied.

"Don't talk about that moron here!" Rebekah raised her hand.

"Fineee... But Roonie is... He's toxic, like concentrated toxicity... Yunno" Pearl said, a frown etching on her face.

"Just give him some time and get used to him, maybe you can unravel the parts of him we weren't able to unravel" Rebekah said.

"Meaning?" Pearl asked.

"He's like a senior brother to everyone of us in the frat club. Everyone is either 21 or 22, but Banks is 25" Rebekah replied.

"What! He's three years older than me? But he looks young" Pearl gasped.

"You'll understand why he's still in college at this age if you hear his childhood story from him. We treat him with respect not only because he's our leader, but he's our bro" Rebekah smiled.

Pearl's eyes remained wide.

"You should have just agreed with him to put Teal in her place earlier. Her questions are getting too much" Rebekah said as she pulled Pearl out of the room.

"I noticed that too, she's... somehow" Pearl replied.

"You should fix things with Banks soon" Rebekah said.

"Is he mad at me now?" Pearl asked.

"Mad at you? Banks doesn't get mad, he only refines his strategy. I'm sure he's planning something" Rebekah replied.

"Whatever, we should FaceTime Morgan and Lizzy before leaving" Pearl said.

"Yas!" Rebekah kissed Pearl's cheek, and they chuckled before entering the main hall.

A big smile exploded on Pearl's face, and he buried his face in her breàsts, greedily breathing in the smell of her cherry.. She dipped her fingers in his brown hair, stroking it to the scalp. He groaned into her chest, his face resting in a more relaxed way. She was about to stroke his scalp again when he suddenly raised his head, facing her with a slight frown between his brows. "Where did you get the tattoo from? Who inked you?" "It's a woman, I promise" she replied with a knowing smile. "Tell me the name and location of the shop" he insisted.

"Death should be your only option, but you both have to get arrested and tell the cops what you did, including the warehouse saga. That way, my family can get their places back in the law frame" He said, and almost immediately, three cops cars came to a fast stop right beside them.
