He walked down the hallway, and everyone was whispering looking at him, "Jack, are you okay?"said Claire.
Jack looked at Claire, then smiled, "Yes i am, are you guys okay." Claire was wearing her blue wool jersey which matched her eyes and a light blue Denim pants holding her books.
"About what happened on Saterday, it was just crazy, had you not been there, i dont know what would have happened."
Max came walking down the hallway with two of his friends. He looked at Jack, and never greeted, he never stopped to greet Claire.
"Whats up with him?"
"With who Max? I am not sure but even since that incident he never contacted me."
"Hey guys, what happened Saterday was crezy, Jack, took those thugs down, it was like watching a 3D movie right infront of me. Jack how did you do that i mean, you were so calm and collected you had saved Max ass."
"Melanie enough, im sure Jack has things to do? Right Jack?"
Jack nodded his head, "yes we will catchup some other time."
Jack wore a black leather Jacket his hair was combed to the back, and he had a skull tattoo on the top of his hand, he wore a skinny blue denim Jean and white sneakers.
"Hey Jack the man, whatsup." i heard what happened on Saterday. It was Marcus he had his arm around Jacks neck. " Lets go man."
"Marcus?"
Marcus looked at Claire, and never responded instead walked off with Jack.
"Whats his problem, he think his the shit." Melanie stood there, "yes i noticed, you done something to that dude that must have seriously pissed him off."
"Like what?
"We dated only three days Melanie, he can't be mad at me if he is the one who left, what did he expect for me to wait around for him?"
Why am I thinking so much about Jack, lately, I mean we friends, but after what has happened and talking to eachother getting to know him she had thought about him all weekend.
His strong hands, how he dresses and walks with confidence his u predictable and mysterious.
Claire walked off to class on her way to class there were two cops in the hallway, they were talking to the reception.
"Something must have happen cops barely came around here unless a serious crime has been committed or they here to search this place.
"Melanie have you seem those cops?"
"Yes I have, Claire, I think they.are here for Jack, because of what happened at the mall."
"Jack? Claire became concerned, what has he done?"
"The incident of Saturday his carrying an unlicensed firearm and his dangerous I mean he waved that gun around like it was a toy."
"Melanie, shut up, you don't know what you are talking about you always speculating the worst, he comes from a decent family, must you always be this condescending?"
"Girl relax, why are you jumping to his defence, it's as if you fell in love with him, all im saying is you have a good man Max who adores you."
"Adores me? But spends all his time with you, your hanging on eachother like a couple, and beside not that I care, but last time I checked Jack saved us not Max, after Max ran his big mouth."
"I am not getting Into this with you, all I am."
"Excuse me are you Claire and Melanie." said the officer cutting Melanie off.
"Yes we are? Why are you asking."
The cop took out his notebook we would like go have a talk with the two of you regarding the incident on Saturday?"
"See I told you they are here because of Jack?" Melanie said.
"The two cops looked at each other, Jack?"
"Yea the incident that took place on Saturday which you have just mentioned officer?"
"We also are here regarding Marcus, do you know a Marcus?" The cop wrote a note down in book."
"Yes, we know Marcus Officer, we have to get to class regarding what is this."
Those three men who was in the fight on Saturday with a student at the name Jack, they turned up dead witness described a kid fitting Marcus description, have you seem Marcus on Saturday?"
Melanie was speechless, this is a turn of event, next time she should bite her tongue.
"Yes officer we briefly saw eachother while he was with Jack, but I can tell you Marcus is not capable of harming anyone."
"Mam, let us do our job and not speculate on what we think." Said the officer.
"So you never saw Marcus again after that?"
"No officer, but the mall has cameras all over the place, if you so convinced his capable of harming anyone you should start looking at the camera."
The cops looked at eachother, "If i may ask what happened to those three men?"
"They were shot execution style straight to the head."
Claires eyes and Melanies eyes grew big.
"Are you sure its Marcus? Because Jack was the one with the gun?"
"What the fuck Melanie?" Said Claire
"Please repeat that said the officer? Looking at Melanie."
Melanie realized she spoke again out of term. "You stated that Jack was carrying a firearm?"
Melanie nodded her head, "yes but he only wanted to scare those guy." The officers dismissed her words of only wanting to scare the guys, and wrote down in there notebook possible suspect, Jack.
"So what exactly happened?"
If Claire was going to get Jack out of the dirty water she would have to give a clear detailed statement of what happened, "Max bumped into the guy and he started a fight and two other men approached after Max got hit to the ground, i tried to jump to Max defense threw me to the ground, Jack stepped in beat the two guy with the knives up and removed his gun. He never shot anyone, he pulled it out to scares them off."
After they left Jack turned around and was going to walk away. I then left shortly afterwards and joined him and went to watch a movie.
Melanie turned and looked at Claire.
"So you were with Jack till what time that day?"
Claire looked at Melanie, we went home evening.
"Is there anyone else who could vouch for that?"
Claire nodded her head," yes there is. Marcus saw us entering there."
The two cops looked at eachother as the one cop closed the notebook.
"Was Marcus that whole time there and what was the time that movie ended?"
"Around 5pm officer." Claire responded
"And Marcus during the movie did he leave at anytime?"
"No officer." Claires innocent look with her bright blue eyes and plaited blonde hair, made her appear as if she couldnt harm a fly.
The cop shook his head, "and you are sure in that time Marcus never left his seat?"
Claire nodded her head, "Yea officer, he was sitting right infront of us."
Melanie, was surprised at Claires answers, she told them she was not feeling well and she was going home, and now the truth came out. She was this wholetime with Jack and Marcus.
"Thats all we have for now, we will contact you if there is anything else that comes up. thank you for your time."
Claire looked at Melanie, "spill it out, Melanie."
"You lied to us, why?"
"Because Max is the reason all that happened, his words is louder than his actions, and you guys were all over eachother Melanie, you were there hanging on my boyfriend pampering him, i mean why dont you guys just date and save me the humiliation?"
"Claire i dont like Max in that way, i see him more like a brother."
"Sure Melanie your actions speaks otherwise."
"What do you care anyway you like that Jack guy, you couldnt fast enough jump to his defence and does Max know you spend time with Jack at the movie alone?"
"No , but if need be i will tell him, his anyway ignoring me since Saturday."
Melanie laughed, " I dont blame him, maybe he knows about you and Jack and shortly after you left he had left."
They walked off to class.
"So what happened saturday, everyone is talking about how you had saved Max."
"Not exactly save him, he would be fine, Marcus, anyway what were you doing at the movies on your own we could have gone together."
Well I wanted to call you to join and then i saw you with Claire, "does Max know about this, i mean you guys seem to really like eachother."
"No we are just friends." anyway what did you do for the rest of the day after we left?"
Not much went straight home, how about you and that girl Claire I saw you guys leaving together.
"You observing, well not much we went over to mines and we had a drink or two then I dropped her off."
"Have you seen the cops earlier, they were going around to the student, I am not sure why."
"Yes I am told they investigating the murder of the three guys you beat up?"
"Those same three thugs?" Jack was surprised. "Yes I don't have much information about it but I guess we will have to wait and find out." Marcus smiled, exposing his perfectly white teeth.
