Chapter 10
The teacher dismissed the class for lunch. Ethan hadn't realised the class was coming to an end so he still had all his papers to put away. He told Vik to go ahead without him.
"Ethan, before you go to lunch, you need to stop by the principals office. You're not trouble but there's someone there who wants talk to you." his teacher informed. Ethan nodded and slung his backpack onto his shoulders. He walked to the front of the building wondering who could possibly want to see him. He walked into the front office and up to the desk.
"You wanted to see me?" Ethan addressed himself.
"Ah, yes, Ethan Payne? There are some news reporters from Weasel News who would like an interview with you. You might recognize his name, Harry Lewis." the lady announced, smiling. Ethan felt his heart start to burn. He hates this guy more than anyone.
"Um, I don't exactly feel comfortable doing so." Ethan hesitated.
"Well, Mr. Lewis had asked your mother if it was alright with her to do this and she really wants you to. So you have to, I understand it's hard." she pretended to be sympathetic. Ethan sighed and went to the back. There Harry stood in all his glory bossing some cameramen where to put things. He noticed Ethan standing in the doorway.
"Ethan! How nice to see you again." Harry greeted.
"Hi, what did you want to interview me for?" Ethan gritted his teeth.
"Well it's been just over two years since all that craziness happened to you and the people of Los Santos, so I thought I'd do a catch up, anniversary type thing." Harry proposed.
"Do I have to?" Ethan nagged. Harry's fake smile disappeared.
"Yes you do. I just finished one with Tobi. It's your turn now." Harry walked over to Ethan. "Can you guys excuse us for a moment?" he asked the crew as they left. "This is another one of those important stories that'll get me a lot of attention. It's harder to get views in such a big field of news networks."
"What makes you think I'm going to work with you? You messed up my life and told lies about me." Ethan growled.
"Fine. Then I'll just tell lies again. I'll just tell the world you didn't want to be on camera and make up shit." Harry laughed. "Besides, I would've thought I did you a favor by keeping everyone aware of you and then they would protect you from villains such as Wedgeman and Zerker." he scowled.
"No. I don't need protecting from them. They aren't the villains, you are! Manipulating people, and taking things out of context just for your own personal success." Ethan hissed.
"I bet you know where those two are." Harry waggled his finger. Ethan stood there for a moment before realising he has to say something.
"No, why would I know where they disappeared off to?" Ethan denied.
"Oh, shut up about me lying when you're doing it right now. You're too good of friends with them to not know where they are. Are they right here in town?" Harry continued.
"I don't know! Just go ruin my life again. I want to go eat lunch man." Ethan snapped. Harry narrowed his eyes.
"I'm not letting you out until you tell me where they are. If I know then I can report them and have them arrested. Then that would make the hero." Harry said cockily. Ethan's hands formed into fists. He wasn't going to let Simon and Josh fall to this selfish bastard. Then there was a knock on the door.
"Harry, there was missing man from a few days ago whose body was just found in a dumpster if you'd like to do a report on that." a woman offered. Ethan froze wondering if it was the same man Simon had murdered.
"There's really not much to it though, is there?" Harry considered.
"No but it's something else to do while we're here. That is if you're done here." she said.
"Um, I guess we're done here. Give us one more moment." Harry excused her. "Now you wouldn't happen to know anything about it would you? Maybe Wedgeman and Zerker?"
"I wouldn't know because the only time I'm aloud outside of here is on the weekend. If that happened only a few days ago then I couldn't of been there. Today's Thursday." Ethan reasoned.
"No need to get so defensive. Now if you excuse me I have more important things to deal with than an immature little boy." Harry sneered, pushing Ethan out of his way and then leaving.
"God I hope you're on Josh and Simon's hit list." Ethan whispered.
