Boarder Line Badass

~Haylee's POV~

Bella and I stared at Blair in surprise. Her sudden outburst about one boy let the rest of dinner float in tension. Now that Shannon had stormed out, we were left in an awkward silence.

"I think that went a bit far." Bella said, breaking the ice. I looked round the rest of the hall, girls stared in our direction then proceeded to whisper to their neighbors. I glared at them, they widened their eyes and took their trays away without another word.

"I know it did." Blair mumbled, taking a big sip of her drink. "That Andy guy, he's bad news. I just don't want her to get hurt."

"How do you know about him?" I asked, watching her curiously.

"I just know people who have told me stuff, okay?" She sighed irritably and stood, pushing her chair back with her calves, causing it to squeak sharply. We winced and watched her strut down the hall towards the stairs.

"I guess we aren't meant to follow her." Bella said, placing mine and Blair's tray on top of hers and taking them to the cleaners. I sat pondering over Cameron. Why am I the one to get stuck with an attention seeking moron? I don't know much about Blair's partner Andy, but he can't be worse than Cameron, surely.

~Blair's POV~

I slid down the outside of our dorm door, knowing Shannon was quietly sobbing on the other side.

"Shann, you know I only want the best for you, right?" No answer. "And that I want you to be with a guy who makes you happy and treats you right?" No reply. "Jeez, I'd track down Evan Peters for you if I could." I chuckled slightly, hearing shuffling the other side of the door. "He's not worth it, Shann. I've heard really bad stuff about him, stuff that could get you into trouble if you got involved."

"What stuff?" She asked from her side of the door.

"Just bad things, he's in trouble with a lot of people." I played with a loose thread in the worn carpet.

"He told me to stay away from him because he was bad news. I don't know what to do, B!" I could tell from her croaky throat and sniffs that she was crying again.

"Open the door?" I smiled when there was the instant click of the door. She practically jumped on me, her arms squeezing me tight. I closed the door behind us and took a seat next to her on the floor. She clutched a tissue and proceeded to wipe her panda eyes, smearing the eye liner over her face.

"Oh, Shann." I chuckled and helped her take off the make up.

"Do you think I should stay away from him?" She asked wearily, occasionally sniffling. I nodded,

"For now, yes. Just until I've talked to him first, okay?"

"I do really like him, Blair." She twiddled her fingers, "I saw a different side to him when we were picking up the crap." She laughed, "He's not like everyone else."

"I know. We'll sort it out, I promise." I smiled, "You just watch Evan or whatever, I'm going to get the others." She nodded and climbed onto her bed, opening the laptop lid.

"Guys, I need you to do something with me." I found Bella and Haylee in the lounge talking about 5 Seconds of Summer or something.

"Sure, what?" Bella asked, turning herself to face me.

"We need, to follow someone." Their eyes widened,

"What?!" They hissed, we huddled closer,

"Look, we need to find out if Andy is still being a weird ass, bad ass and the only way we can do that, is if we follow him. I know it sounds like a freakish idea, but he's not going to talk to me willingly, he doesn't know you guys and I promised Shannon that I'd make this okay." She looked at us with hopeful eyes,

"And how do you purpose we find out when he's leaving, and where he's leaving from?" Haylee said, clutching onto the sofa with her nails.

"Well, we ask your book buddies, I guess."
