Vik and Ethan walked around the perimeter of the school right before school started. They were talking about what they had done over the weekend. Ethan didn't tell Vik about his encounter with Josh and Simon still. Or that he caused some trouble.

"I just explored the town." Vik told Ethan. "And I made a knew friend." Vik was talking about JJ. After they met on Saturday, they came across each other again on Sunday and hung out together. Ethan was about to ask who when the bell rang.

"Aw man we're late. See you later!" Ethan ran off to his class. Vik ran off to his, in the opposite direction. Vik was running so fast he couldn't stop when Tobi came out of a classroom. They clashed with each other and Tobi's papers went everywhere.

"Oh my gosh I'm so so sorry, Tobi!" Vik quickly apologized. He then began frantically helping him pick up his papers.

"No it's okay. It's not like you trying to run into me." Tobi laughed. "Looks like we're both late. The only difference is you'll get in trouble."

"It sucks. Luckily my first class teacher is pretty chill." Vik shrugged. He handed the notes to Tobi. "If you don't mind me asking, since I'm already late, why did you become a teacher of all jobs?"

"Well, it's not too stressful and I thought this would lower my chances of seeing Wedgeman and Zerker again but I guess not." Tobi explained. "Why can't they just leave me alone?!" Tobi shivered at the memories.

"I don't get how anyone could see the good in them." Vik said referring to Ethan. "They've scarred you for the rest of life."

"Literally as well. It's all in the past now but as long as they keep their distance, I'm keeping mine." Tobi declared. "Well, you better to class and better get to mine. It's probably a mess in there."

JJ waited outside of the school walls for lunch to begin. Today he is going to talk to Vik a little bit, and see if he can get him to meet him later. JJ walked over to an area with trees and climbed up the one Ethan had used that first night he saw Josh and Simon. JJ perched himself on a branch out of everyone's sight. He watched Vik near him as he was heading to see Ethan.

"Hey! Vik!" JJ whispered his name. Vik looked around confused. "Up here." JJ waved his hand in front of his face.

"JJ?! What are you doing here?" Vik tried to look casual as he talked to what seemed to be just a tree.

"I just stopped by to ask you if you can meet up with me here after your curfew." JJ asked.

"Um... no. Can't it wait?" Vik said with a sassy tone.

"No it can't. Can you try at least. I know you won't get caught." JJ attempted to persuade him.

"No. Goodbye." Vik turned on his heels and left. JJ wasn't going to take "no" for an answer. He needed Vik if he was going to get Ethan. Ethan is the key to getting rid of Josh since Evie couldn't do that.
