Goddard's Home for Troubled Teens

Mel

I swallow and don't move, afraid to.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Val

I flash a shy smile before looking down.

Sharp

I wipe her eyes again and brush her hair back from her forehead.

```
Ryder

I smile and rest my temple against hers.

Mel

I moan, "I-I want revenge."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Val

I smile wider, not sure what to say or do.

Sharp

I nod, "I know. I want some too. What do you have in mind?"

````
Ryder

I match her smile and take her hand, embracing the silence.

Mel

I shrug and sit up, opening my eyes and taking my shirt off. I throw on a new one before standing and pacing around, "I...I don't know."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Val


I glance at him and sigh.

Sharp

I watch her, thinking.

````
Ryder

I look at her, "What do you wanna do?"

Mel

I cross my arms, "Do you know what'll make Ryder do anything? Like...make him hurt?"

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Val

I smile, "I don't know. Um...cuddle."

Sharp

I think, biting my lip, "That girl, for starters. Gets tense whenever someone else but him is around her. He's got something to hide too. Something dark."

```
Ryder

I smile and lie back, taking her with me.

Mel

I smile, "There we go. First, you can start hitting on his girl, get her alone, and then he'll get so jealous that he'll break down. Then, we can dig deeper into his past and threaten to spill it once we find out. It'll hurt both of them."

,,,,,,,,,,,,.,,,,
Val

I smile and lie with him.

Sharp

I smile back, "Alright. You're okay with me doing that?"

````
Ryder

I smile back and kiss her temple.

Mel

I nod, biting my lip, "If it'll hurt them, then yes. Make it good. So that...she can't say no."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Val

I kiss his arm and close my eyes.

Sharp

I study her before nodding, "Anything you say."

```
Ryder

I close my eyes as well, flashing a smile at her.

Mel

I sit next to him, "Lunch is in less then three minutes so we can do it then. When Val gets her drink, you can approach her and I'll destract Ryder."

,,,,,,,,,,,
Val

I sit up, "We should head to lunch. I'm starving."

Sharp

I nod, "How will you distract the kid? He won't trust us any further than he can throw us."

```
Ryder

I nod and sit up as well, taking her hand and leading her out.

Mel

I stand, "You'll see. C'mon."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Val

He leads us out and I stay close.
