11 CHAPTER 10
The rest of the week goes by in a blur. School is boring as usual. Josh and I, we are good I guess. It's not like we are dating or anything but we are both aware of our crush on each other. Ivy discloses that she has a crush on Dan. I find that gross.
"Don't you think Dan is cute?" Ivy says, gushing over him.
"Ewwwww! Don't tell me you like him!" I choke out. I almost choked on my meatball.
"Yeah, I think I do. He has such a dashing personality."
"Run me over and call me dinner already." I groan.
Honestly, it's not that I don't find them cute and all. It's just that I've grown up with them so they are practically my brothers. I've seen all their sides, disgusting and all. They even told me the first time they did 'it'. Gruesome details I don't want to hear from them ever again.
"Whatever. I think he is cute."
Ouuuuuu! The cringes!
Back at home, things are same old. Candace is always happy about something, I only see Aaron at dinner, Tyler does what a 10 year old does, and Janice still annoys the crap out of me.
Yesterday, I caught her snooping around my stuff.
"What are you doing, Janice?"
"What does it look like?" She looks bored.
"Snooping." I deadpan.
"No kidding Einstein."
"Why?" I'm trying hard not to punch her in the nose.
"Because I don't trust you. You are up to something. I can feel it. You might be an undercover agent for all I know."
"Hahahaha that's so funny. Pshhh! as if! Hahahaha " I laugh nervously.
"Yeah, you couldn't be an agent even if you tried." She scoffs.
This girl deserves a good ass beating. She totally needs a boyfriend, because apparently she has a lot of free time.
"Whatever. Just leave my stuff alone."
"Newnewnewnewnewnew"she imitates in a highly irritating voice.
On second thought, she should be single forever. We can't burden a poor boy with her stupidity.
I just huff at her and walk out of the room.
*phone rings*
I pick and walk further away from the room when I see the caller ID.
"Officer Ross, tell me."
"They have refused to talk."
"Why? Have you used drastic measures yet?"
"Not yet. Just wanted to ask first."
"Oh Officer Ross, I've told you before that you don't have to ask me anything." I say,exasperated.
"I know but we all know what that Mentor of yours will do to me if I don't." He laughs nervously.
"Well if you have to torture them then please do. I need to know who sent them and why? Thanks for your help once again. Keep me updated. Goodbye."
"Goodbye." He cuts the call.
I call the twins and update them on this latest information. I don't tell them that I plan on going to place the drug creep showed us though. This is my mission, and I'd like to finish it alone. When I'm done talking to the boys and I hang up, I turn around only to find Janice looking at me with wide eyes.
Uh oh! I hope she didn't hear anything.
"What do you want?" I ask.
"Who were you talking to?" She asks suspiciously. I'm beginning to think that she has nothing better to do than to be suspicious about stuff that doesn't concern her and I tell her exactly this.
"I'm beginning to think that you have no life and friends so you just like to bother me."
"Shut up! You don't know anything."
"Well not with this stinky attitude of yours. You are just so annoying, always snooping around. Just stay out of my way."
I don't like being mean to anyone, but if I don't she will cause huge problems for me. The less she knows, the better for me and even herself. I head back to the room, and take out my laptop. I see a message from Mentor.
Mentor: According to the files you sent me, I just want to say good job on getting a lead. I have sent a bag containing some files and a few gadgets. Those gadgets have been designed specially to look like a normal girl's every day things. That way, carrying them about would look less suspicious. They will arrive tomorrow, exactly at 2P.M. Good Luck Agent.
Tomorrow at 2?! By that time I will be at school. Oh my oh my what do I do now? I guess that means I have to ditch school.
