Reaching to the mansion, Laura took a huge look at the building, questioning herself.
"Sometimes, I wonder how I became the captain of the cheerleading squad and how I became John's girlfriend?"
Laura looked at the snow as she took a scoop of it with her hand.
"Why does snow always give me this nostalgic feeling even though it does?" Laura then dropped the snow.
"Whatever. That stupid John doesn't know what he is saying. He's the outcast, a nobody to Sunshine High. John's the King of High School. He should be the one to trust." Laura walking into the mansion.
"I mean. What could one thing that he's possibly hiding from me?" Laura then closed the door behind her.
However, Laura saw something that was so unusual.
"Oh my God." Laura ran behind the shelf adjacent to her.
"What's that woman doing here?!" Laura whispered to herself behind the shelf.
Coming out of the living room, John would come out approaching the woman.
"Damn it woman. I gutted out your bones and nervous system. Why won't your skin stick to the endoskeleton that I brought on you?" John uses his glue gun to glue back the decaying skin on the woman.
"I mean you still have until the end of the school year to perform for those bastards. I can't rely on that bitch of a girlfriend to do everything for me. Speaking of her, she should be home in five minutes. Should probably put her back to where she came from." John carried the woman-like robot in his hands.
"But damn it. That stupid asshole Drake gave me a gash on my head. Good thing I have a healing factor." John leaving the entrance way.
Hyperventilating, Laura couldn't believe what she heard.
"He replaced me with a machine?! But why? I always loved him and that's how he repaid me back like this?" Laura is feeling really disappointed.
Moving away from the shelf, Laura pretended to come home by opening and closing the door.
"Babe! I'm home!" Laura pretending to come home.
But like always, there was no response to John as he was kept busy in his basement.
"Oh fuck it. Enough of this teenage girl shit!" Laura stomped down to the basement to see John.
"John! I came home and this is how you respond?!" Laura wants to argue with John.
"Go away. I'm trying to finish up. Just go back in the kitchen and make me a BLT." John focused on his machine.
"Babe. Why won't you try to at least talk to me?!" Laura smacks John on the back.
However, smacking John was a bad idea as he accidentally scratched the painting on the drone bought a month ago.
"What the fuck!" John turned towards Laura, throwing his safety glasses towards the brick wall.
John would grab Laura's wrist and slap her until there were red marks on her cheeks.
"I told you to make me a damn sandwich and you decided to push me?!" John being very aggressive towards Laura.
"N-No that's not what I meant. I wanted to.."
"And why aren't you acting like that retarded girl that I always knew. I can tell you are finally coming to your senses." John gripped her hand.
"No no no. I'm still your Laura! I was just upset and that's all!" Laura pretending to be her old self.
Rolling his eyes. John pushed her to the ground.
"Yeah that right. Be that stupid bitch you are always meant to be. And if you don't know what I'm talking about then, talk to Andrew over there." John pointing at Andrew's decapitated body.
"Oh my God." Laura thought to herself.
"So are you going to talk back to me or will you be my bitch!" John gives Laura an aggressive look.
"Don't worry John! I promise I will be that girl you wanted and bring you that sandwich!!" Laura gave her high pitch voice.
"Good. Now leave or else you'll end up like him over there."
Laura then left the basement. But then started to shake as she had never been hit this hard before.
"How did I feel that slap? John always slapped me whenever I was a bad girl, but this felt much more severe. What on earth is happening to me?"
Later more blood started to come out of her nose and mouth as it started to drip on the stairway.
"Why can't I stop bleeding? I…I need help." Laura started to slowly cry inside.
In the basement, John was slowly finishing up his drone as it was the same colors as the school logo, a built-in camera, four rotor systems, and what seemed to be a cylindrical object that had a silver color that's blank.
"Yeah Scott Smith. You want to kill my brother, then it's fair that I can kill you. I thought you could be part of Sunshine High, but instead you try to destroy what I've built. Too bad you gave me no choice but to kill you and turn all your friends back into what I desire them to be." John gives an evil grinch towards the drone.
"Are you sure about that?" A mysterious voice from behind John.
Turning around, it was Johnathan laying his body towards the wall.
"John. I think you do have a choice. Instead of killing this Scott person, why not reason with him instead of protecting what's left of my dead body? I knew you ever since I gave you food to eat during your lunch break and I know there's some good in you."
"No there isn't. Remember what father did to you. He had no right to do what he did." John turned around to talk to Johnathan.
"What about that candy bar that you gave to the kid? Father would've never done that but instead would spend his money on expensive charcuterie and decades old wine. You can be someone that father isn't and not choose the path that he went through." Jonathan walked towards John's work bench.
"And John. Why the hell are you making this ridiculous machine? Are you really trying to kill Scott because of your damn delusions?"
"Brother, I am not delusional. Scott killed you. I saw it with my own eyes."
"So rephrasing those terms, he killed what was already dead. I don't see how he did that. Besides you only saw what was left of me and Scott walking away. However, you didn't see whether he actually killed my body or not."
"Shut up brother. He did kill you and I can prove it."
"Another thing John. Do you really care for me or more about your fantasy that you live in of a fairytale highschool that you desire to have that happy endings."
[BECAUSE THAT MAKES YOU DELUSIONAL]
"SHUT THE HELL UP!" John trying to punch Jonathan.
"Babe! I got you your sandwich.!" Laura opened up the door.
However, Laura only saw John as he kept punching the air talking to himself.
"Uh. Babe." Laura tries to touch John's shoulders.
Suddenly, John's crazy behavior was out of control as he took a screwdriver from the workbench and planned to stab Laura.
"BABE BABE BABE BABE BABE! IT'S ME!!" Laura closed her eyes trying to get ready for the impact.
John stopped as he panted heavily with sweat coming down his half wrinkled face looking at Laura with an angry expression.
"I got you your sandwich." Laura gives John his sandwich.
"Thanks. Now get the hell out of my basement." John taking a big bite out of his sandwich.
"OKAY!" Laura giving her fake expression towards John.
Walking back into her room, Laura layed down on her bed looking at the ceiling as she was lost and confused in her mind.
"Scott. Is this what you really mean? Is John just taking advantage of me?" Laura looked at her bloody hand split from her nose.
"No. Scott's an outcast. He's a damn liar. He's nothing. Why should I listen to him?" Laura told herself.
"But now that I think of it. John was really harsh on me. He wouldn't let me go to the doctor and blood kept coming out of me."
"Tfff. Whatever, I bet when I come to school tomorrow. Scott's going to be that outcast that everyone sees him as. I bet that will make me happy." Laura tucked herself into bed.
"Yeah. Scott's just a nobody. John should be the one to be trusted." Laura then fell asleep.
The next day, Laura, with her bright pink bag, came to school to check up on Scott expecting to be by himself sulking in his own melancholy.
"Oh man, I can't wait to see whether Scott's going to be that stupid kid who has nothing in his life and has no...... .friends." Laura, being disappointed as she saw him, Jim, Dwayne, Natalie, and Bryan all together in a group chatting to each other.
"So guys, before Valentine's Day, I want to get some food today." Scott suggested.
"Yeah but what should we eat?" Dwayne questions.
"What about Chinese food?" Natalie suggests.
"Chinese food?" The group questions.
"Yeah. It's almost Chinese New Year, so I was thinking it might be appropriate to have some Chinese food. And Scott, didn't you have Chinese food before? You're half Chinese." Natalie looks at Scott.
"I did, but ever since my Dad left, I never had Chinese food for a long time, since he knew how to cook it."
"What about your Mom?" Bryan questions.
"Well, my Mom is Italian American, so the only thing she can cook is American and Italian cuisines." Scott said.
"Wait, you're half Italian? I thought you were fully Chinese." Jim in shock.
"I guess I have my Dad's body and my Mom's personality." Scott chuckled a bit.
"Guys, maybe after school, we should get some Chinese food. I think it's great to try something new!" Natalie said in a high spirit.
"Sure. But where can we get Chinese food? All this town serves is just junk food." Bryan questions.
"Don't worry. I can drive us out of here and see where we can get some Chinese food." Natalie brings her car keys out of her pocket.
"Sweet, then let's meet at Natalie's car and get some Chinese food." Scott announced to the group.
"Awesome!" The group said as they dispersed to head to their classes.
"But how? How can Scott achieve so many friends and I couldn't impress John. Why?" Laura was confused as her body collapsed to the ground.
