《What Lies Beyond You | ✓》13. | Toodles

Emery exclaimed.
I glared at her.
We were in her living room-seeing as it was slowly becoming our hangout spot. Emery was lying on the couch skimming through random channels while I was sitting Indian style on the floor with my Calculus homework on my lap. She had been watching movies since I arrived while I had been tackling my Calculus equations.
Emery couldn't help me since we weren't in the same Calculus class, and even though I tried searching the internet for the particular question or anyone related to it, my wrong solutions were better than the results I received.
It was infuriating that I couldn't ask Caelum for help since I still had to seek my revenge on him for what he had done on Saturday. After executing my plan, I could then think about asking him to assist me in my homework.
I didn't have to submit the homework until Tuesday, and I had my test on Thursday. So if I could execute my plan, I'd have Monday and Tuesday to beg for his forgiveness.
I grinned at my perfect plan.
"Daesyn!"
"Uh, yeah?"
"I've been talking to you since forever." She sighed, turning to look at me. "You've been grinning creepily since yesterday, what's up?"
"Nothing, I was just thinking about something."
"Calculus?"
I nodded. It wasn't completely a lie since Caelum was my supposed tutor and my thoughts were focused on him.
"Maybe you should ask Caelum to assist you, he agreed to be your tutor."
I smiled at her. "I will, just not yet."
She stared at me for a moment before scratching her head. "You're doing it again!"
"Huh? What?"
"That creepy face Daesyn!"
"Oh sorry," I said, my grin widening. "I just can't help it."

She snorted, shaking her head.
"I'm tired of watching movies and I'm going to sleep." A small yawn made its way out of her mouth. "Make yourself comfortable."
It was past noon, and I was sick of solving the same question without improvement, so I dropped my books and made myself comfortable on the couch. Before I knew it, I was fast asleep.
It was past three when I woke up. Emery was still fast asleep and her long limbs were dangling from across the couch. I checked my phone for any new texts and scowled when I didn't see any.
I had just two contacts on my phone: Mum and Emery. And since Emery was fast asleep beside me, I think it was obvious whom I was expecting the text from.
I decided to check up on Caelum to see if I could execute my plan, so I packed my things and put them beside the living room door-I needed to be prepared for my escape.
Taking the materials I needed, I tottered up the stairs and towards Caelum's room. I knocked on his door twice and when I didn't hear a sound from inside, I quietly pushed it open and stepped in.
I took my hairband and attached it to the air horn I brought from my house. I never saw mum using the air horn, and I didn't use it either, so why not use it for something good? When I was done attaching it, I released it and threw it on his bed where he was sleeping, and slammed his door shut.
I didn't bother checking if whatever I did woke Emery up. I just picked my bag from the doorway and ran out of the house.
I could still hear the sound from the air horn as I flew into my car and turned on the ignition with shaky fingers. My heart was beating so fast I thought it was going to jump out of my chest and my adrenaline was full-on pumping.

I risked glancing back at the house just before I drove away, and I saw an angry-looking Caelum. He was heaving and glaring at me, I knew I'd be dead if looks could kill. I smiled mockingly-despite my fear of being punched to death and waved, mouthing 'toodles' as I drove away.
He deserved a lot more than this, and he wasn't going to get away with any of his plans. I smirked contentedly and sang along to Imagine dragon's 'believer' when I reached a red light.
Short, but oh, well. Quality is better than quantity :)
