Ties Thicker Than Blood

In the cafeteria the next morning, there was a happy buzz in the air.

The dance was that night.

Curfew was being extended to midnight and the students were excited.

I got myself some scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, and salsa, and coffee to drink as well as some water.

I searched for Gabe and spotted him over by Professor Pops.

The two of them were having a serious conversation and I didn't want to interrupt.

"Miss Croswell," Heather called, waving.

I went over and sat across from her.

She was by herself, which would give me the chance I needed to tell her what I found out.

"Hello, Heather," I said, sipping my coffee.

Mixing the eggs, cottage cheese, and salsa together, I took a bite. Then noticed Heather watching me.

"What? It's good. You should try it sometime. High in protein and delicious."

The girl made a face before dabbing some peanut butter on her banana and taking another bite.

Gabe and Pops were done talking and he waved me over.
