Chapter 4: Arson & Confetti

I LOVE this title. Also last chapter I put a picture of Kale, (Not the best, I was in class.)

It has been a week since Rick's death, and so far things have been normal. Well, for a kid going to a mental rehab, it was normal.

Theo had to take over the family company so he could pay for you to stay here, Kale still is sexually harassing you every time you pass, Nike is now somewhat your friend, Blue has been the same and sometimes sleeps on you while at the tree, and William helps you around most of the time.

You also learned that the "King" of the school is coming back today.

About five years ago there was a kid who had set the entire west wing of the school on fire, earning him the name "Arson", and the title King of Insanity. There were a few other stories Nike had told you about him, but the one that you liked the best was his escape with his friend Braxton, Prince of Insanity.

Their escape was fool proof, the two managed to escape for 4 years and were only found because Arson and Braxton were caught murdering someone on camera.

They were coming back today, and the students rallied and made a welcoming party for the two. It also cancelled out all classes for three days, so you decided to help out.

Which directs us to now, currently you're in charge of the confetti cannons when they enter.

You placed the confetti inside and attached the string to the door, so that when they opened it, confetti would fly out.

You smiled at your plan. You were beginning to climb off the ladder when the door was opened and confetti popped, startling you, and causing you to fall off of the ladder.

"Ah!" You squeaked and prepared for the floor's impact, but instead you were met with someone's body.

You hesitantly opened your eyes to see Mr. Taylor holding you up. "Woah! Be careful, there, (L/N)." He said in a soft tone. You nodded and whispered an apology. He smiled and set you on the floor.

Turning to see who had opened the door you saw Blue. He was boring holes into Mr. Taylor with his eyes, as if he was angry, but you disregarded it.

You smiled, "Hey, Blue! What are you up to?" You asked with a wide smile as he walked in.

You also recently learned that Blue's Birthday was today as well.

Blue smiled just a bit and replied, "Nothing. Nice Confetti." He added at the end, giving you a smile.

"Blue." Mr. Taylor acknowledged Blue's presence with a nod. "Can you go get more confetti, (F/N)?"  He asked and you nodded happily, then skipped off.

On your way to the gift store at the school, you saw Nike laughing at a bench by herself. You were going to question it, until you remembered that she was insane, EVERYONE here is insane. You forgot sometimes. She was schizophrenic, but that made her such a good horror artist.

You smiled and waved from afar, catching her attention. She smiled and waved back, paintbrush in hand. You opened the doors to the store and smiled at the lady who ran the store.

Her name was Mrs. Saturn, she was a petite old lady who enjoyed the kids here, insane or not. Her hair was greying and her face was covered in wrinkles, but she gave off the feeling of a grandmother that makes you cookies.

"Afternoon Mrs. Saturn! I wanted to see if there was anymore confetti." You asked and smirked, "And if the 'Thing' was ready."

By the thing, you meant Blue's birthday present.

She nodded and handed you the confetti. Then she reached under her desk and got out a blue box with a silver bow. "Thank you!" You stated and gave her a 20.

(American currency, sorry this school is... Somewhere in America.)

You opened the top to see your gift and smiled. Placing the top back on you checked out the confetti and ran back to your room. You peered into the room, making sure no one was there, and smirked when there wasn't.

You slid the box under your bed and covered it with clothes. You then turned to go back, only to see Kale blocking your way. Kale smirked, "You look busy." He said.

You nodded and tried to dart out the room but he blocked the exit. "Leaving so soon?" He asked, running his hand through your hair and twisting the edges. (If you don't have hair/ can't do this, then he moves his hand your waist.)

You squirmed at the touch. He smirked and gave you a kiss on the forehead, you could feel his lip pearling. "Go, you're busy with the king's party." He said and moved out of your way.

You smiled and gave him and unexpected hug, then skipped off, leaving the pale man flustered. You went through the back door and saw Blue and Mr. Taylor talking.

"Whatever, Mr. Taylor." Blue said, and you could feel the mocking acid drop out of his mouth when he said his name.

You could tell that Mr. Taylor rolled his eyes. "I've actually taken a liking to her too, so best man wins?" He asked.

Blue's glare could kill something, "No, stopping kidding, Da-" Blue began but was interrupted by a girl running past you.

"PARTY IS GOING TO START, YOU BETTER HAVE YOUR STUFF TOGETHER!" She yelled, twitching while saying it. You walked past and began hooking the new confetti poppers up. This time you carefully went off the ladder, and folded it up.

Looking around the room, it was decorated like a high school prom. There was a pile of balloons tied to a food table of red, yellow, and white. There were posters of blurry men, whom you suspected were Arson & Braxton. There was a large stage where a DJ would play at the end, in the middle there was a microphone, and on the edge there was two tables with trophies on them. Strung above the stage there was a large banner with the words "WELCOME BACK!" Bolded in black, and with the creepster font. The back of the banner was large flames.

You smiled at all the work put into this, and put the ladder in the shed that was in the back of the school. When you placed it down you heard a loud Thud! And string of curse words. You looked out of the shed side and saw William rubbing his rump with his clipboard on the ground.

"Bloody, what the-" he started and heard your laughing. He turned and faced you, immediately straightening. "Oh! (Y/N)! Hi, where did you come from?" He asked frantically.

You smiled and picked up his clipboard. "I'm okay, and you? Why were on the roof?" You asked, handing him the clipboard.

(Though you didn't notice that (W + (first initial.) was engraved on the bottom of it, in a heart.

He looked around to see if anyone was nearby, and when he found out there was no one, he put a hand your shoulder.

"Braxton is literally THE worst person I've met. I'm trying to find an escape plan, until he leaves again." He said, and hugged you. He shivered and you awkwardly patted him on the back. "I don't WANT HIM TO COME BACKKKKK!" He whined and sobbed while clutching you.

"It's okay." You soothed him while combing through his black hair. "Shh." You said hugging his head. "What did he do anyway?" You asked when he regained himself.

"EVERYTHING! HE STOLE EVERYTHING I LOVE, THEN STEPPED ON IT!" He looked you dead in the eyes, his blue eyes boring holes into your (E/C) ones.

He looked exhausted and stood up straight. He pressed out his uniform and coughed.

"Excuse me." He stated then walked off in a stressed manner.

You decided to ignore that situation for a moment and walked back to party. There were over 300 people packed in the room with music blaring. Everyone was dressed formally, and you were there in an old (F/C) jacket and some jeans. Right as you walked in to find Mr. Taylor, Nike grabbed your arm and pulled you over to a strange room.

"Hey, Nike." You said and she pulled out a measuring tape for waists. (What are those called anyway?) she was dressed in her normal paint-splattered attire.

She stood you on a podium, and said, "Stand still." She placed it across your waist and said "(Your Waist Measurement)." She smirked. "I guess you were right." She said as if someone else were there. "Oh shut up, don't be cocky." She said in a scolding tone.

She looked over at you apologetically. "Sorry, Danny is being himself." Danny was one of the people that she often talked to. She then measured you chest and also got that right.

She smiled. "One second." She said then opened a closet filled with dresses. She pulled out a (Favourite color) dress, that at the front was short but on the back it extended in a long fashion. It seemed to shimmer as she moved.

She ordered you to put it on and walked out the room. You did as told, and looked at yourself. She opened the door, this time with a makeup kit. There was a small vanity in the room and she sat you down at it's seat. Her brown eyes studied you and applied mascara, (lipstick that goes with dress) and (eyeshadow that goes with dress).

She washed out your hair, (Once again, if you don't have hair/can't do anything to it, skip this paragraph.) and styled it in a (CUTE fashion of choice.)

She than gave you some matching stud earrings and a matching star headpiece.

She put you in front of a mirror. You looked beautiful. Nike smirked and said, "Damn, I'm good." And nodded.

You were shocked, when did Nike learn to do any of this? "Nike, how- when-" you stumbled over your words.

"I've been watching project runaway. Keep everything, just tell everyone that asks I did it. It's a thanks for setting this up. From Braxton and I." She said and kicked you out of the room into the party.

You stood shocked, and stared. Walking into the party you looked around. Everything was going well and no one tried killing anyone. By the door there was Julianna and William talking. You looked around for Blue and spotted Kale instead. He was surveying the area as well. He looked at you and squinted. You pushed up your glasses.

He walked passed you and picked up a punch cup that was sitting on the snack table. "Where is she?" He cursed under his breath and looked down at you.

"(Y/N)? Is that you?" He asked bending down to face you. "What the-" he question and you tensed. "Why are you so attractive?" He asked. "I'm going to take you outside right now, my hormones are going crazy." He said and grabbed your wrist then bent down to kiss you.

Before he could, confetti popped off, and the doors opened. There was loud screaming and a song played in the background. "ARSON!" The crowd screamed again making Kale stand up straight.

Two people made their way to the stage accompanied by burly bodyguards. The first one was slightly shorter, but not by much. He was just about 6'7, with spiked blue hair, nearly ghostly skin, and an eye color that you couldn't see from your place. He was dressed in a striped blue and black shirt with a white tie, jeans, and a black leather jacket.

The other boy was more like a man. His hair was a neon shade of yellow, and was styled as if he were on the cover of fashion weekly. His beard was slightly darker, and was short. He was the biggest person here, 6'11, maybe 250 out of pure muscles, and was generally intimidating. His clothes consisted of a plain red shirt, a black jacket, and black jeans. He might sound normal, but he looked like he just walked off the cover of Victoria Secret's mens edition.

The two walked onto stage, and blue-haired one grabbed the microphone. "WE'RE BACK! All regrets I have, well, THERE ARE NONE! LET'S PARTY!" He yelled, dropping the mic dramatically, and the DJ put on a song as everyone cheered.

(Time-skip because I really wanna play Skyrim right now. HIGH ELVES FOR LIFEEEEEE!!!)

You were hit with a shock of realization that Blue still didn't have his gift. You stopped dancing and bolted out the room frantically. Going to the room, you grabbed the gift and saw Nike sitting alone outside.

"Hey, Nike, can you do me a favor and tell Blue to go to 'the tree?'" You asked. She looked up, and nodded, getting up.

Everyone knew what the tree was, you were seen there most of the time.

"No problem. Just an FYI though, he's worse than everyone here. I'm not sure you want to be alone with him." She warned with a sullen face. Before you could question, she had left.

You got to the tree and placed the box inside of the hole on the tree. You moved back to the most near-by building (which was still quite far away.).

After three minutes blue walked to the tree. He looked around for you, but didn't see you. You could practically hear him whisper "What the hell?" Under him breath. He looked at the hole and hesitantly took the box out.

He stared down at it for a few seconds before laughing. He wiped away a tear and opened it. He froze. Picking up the item inside, he took out his earbuds for the first time you've seen.

Your gift to him, was a pair of red headphones with a B engraved on both sides. You had obviously put a lot of thought into this. Blue pulled his old headphones out and pulled the new ones into his red iPod.

You smiled, he looked so happy. For a guy who never smiles, he had the widest grin.

(AND THAT'S ALL FOLKS!)


(JUST KIDDING!)

You made your way back to the party. Outside you saw Braxton lighting a cigarette by a trashcan. He looked over at you and cursed.

"You're not going to lecture me on smoking right?" He asked, putting it into his mouth.

You walked over to him. "No, Prince Braxton, I would never!" You said mockingly, making him smile.

"Well lady (L/N), at least you know your place." He said making you laugh. "Go back to the party, wouldn't want you to get cancer." He said.

You nodded and opened the door. Closing it behind you, you stopped.

How did he know your name?
