6.

A little bit before nine, I made my way down to the Common Room.

Usually around this time at night, it was crowded with the normal sorts. Mainly gathered around the TV and collective game system, shouting and having a good time. Tonight was no different it seemed. Though there were a couple of guys in the corner playing pool. I just sorted lingered back over to my chair, hoping no one would bother me. I made sure I wore my glasses this time too so as not to draw so much attention. The hoodie helped a lot too. I didn’t want another repeat of this afternoon with Jarrod and his stupid friends.

Speaking of Jarrod.

I noticed he was one of the guys cheering on whatever game was being played.

I couldn’t help but groan.

Morons and their moronic games

While I sat, I took the time to take stock of my things. By things, I mean cell phone and the little thing of mace I was prone to carry on my keychain. It was another one of those things my father made me carry after that bully incident. I wasn’t like other boys and I wasn’t big enough to defend myself. I thought about taking self-defense classes once but I just never felt the need. I had other ways to fight back after all. My computer was my weapon and I had a Black belt in it. I had a large arsenal at my deposal too and enough ammunition to take down the biggest of targets.

Every night after recording a conversation, I downloaded it.

Then I backed up those downloads onto a secure off-site server.

Then onto a flash drive.

So even if someone did get my computer, I still had two more secure backups to fall upon.

Call me paranoid but I made a promise to myself to never be a victim again.

I already had a nice collection of highlights from Frank and his boys. After what Cherry told me, I was now convinced there was definitely more going on. I mean if it was just a prank then why go to all the trouble of keeping the items and what’s more, why all the secrecy. Especially tonight. It didn’t take a genius to figure out that it was them who put the card under my door. This must have been the second part of whatever it was they were planning. So I came prepared as usual.

Trying to pretend everything was normal, I sat there reading.

I was only half paying attention to my book. It was, after all, one I’d read before. The book was just a cover. I was more interested in my surroundings. Frank and the others weren’t here yet but they would be soon. If I were to guess I’d say they were up to something more juvenile and stupid. Probably another so-called “heist” in another girls dorm. These guys seemed really keen on taking stuff from the girls and keeping it for whatever. Some stupid macho display no doubt. Maybe it was payback. Frank and Cherry did break up over the summer after all.
