Alliance High: Part Two.


Students gathered their belongings as the last bell of the day rang. Stepping out of his last period of the day, Osir saw Rev and Kaidan walk up to him. "So, what did you think?" Rev asked. "Mr. Solus, was quite the..... Uh.... Character." In all honesty, the salarian's speech patterns were so odd and he went by so fast he was fortunate he was able to get all of his notes down. "When does the man find the time to breathe?" Osir asked, the three laughing. "Oh, hey. Osir, we're going to meet up with the others at Apollo's. You coming?" Kaidan asked, the resturaunt was known for having the world's greatest burgers. "Yeah, you bet. When are we going to head over?" Kaidan looked down at his watch, reading 4:05. "James is gonna pick us up." The brunette could have sworn he saw the faintest of the color pink on Osir's face.

A black truck pulled up into the parking lot of the school with the horn blowing a couple times, Rev muttering "showoff." The passenger door opened, with the driver hollering "New guy gets shotgun!" Osir raised an eyebrow getting in, "I have a name you know." James chuckled and nodded seeing the other two boys climb into the back. "Only because he wants you there." Kaidan stated, being shushed by his boyfriend. "So, the others already there?" Rev asked, pulling out his iPhone. "Yep, already there." The muscular one answered.

Pulling up to the small blue joint, the Apollo's sign standing high, James parked into his usual spot and hopped out. Osir saw Grunt, the only one of the three he met today. "You're late, fuckface!" James rolled his eyes, flipping off the girl. She has tattoos, way WAY more than James. "Ahh, you must be Shep's cousin? Osir, right?" She asked, getting up from the booth. "Nice to meet you, uh.."

"Jack." The bald headed girl said, "Call her anything else and she'll gut you like a fish." The turian behind her said, in a humorous yet mocking manner, "I'm Garrus Vakarian, nice to meet you Osir." Garrus said, shaking hands with Osir. "I'll order. I already know what you guys want, what do you want me to get for you Osir?" James said, pulling out his wallet.

"Oh, no I'll pay!" Osir offered, but James already had out the money with a look saying 'I got this' Osir gave in. "Number 3.. And a coke." James nodded and gave a wink before heading up to the counter. "Looks like muscles' already making moves on you." Jack said. Was he? Osir never really was any good with picking up signals. "So, what do you think of the dump we call Vancouver?" She asked. Osir shrugged, "I have no problem with it." He saw James come back to the table with a tray with their orders, hands reaching for their orders but stopped when James yelled over them, "Hey Hey Hey! Let Osir get his." Which he did, losing no time drinking his soda.

They weren't kidding when they said that they had the world's best burgers. It definitely hit the spot. "You have someone to pick you up? I'll drop you off." James asked. "Oh, thanks. That be great. Nah, I live alone." Jack's last fry fell out of her mouth, "Shit! Lucky!" There was an uneasy silence following that, "I'm gonna take you up on that offer." Osir said, getting up to empty his tray. "Sweet! I mean, no prob." Following suit, the remaining three just sat at the table. The boys glaring at Jack. "Smooth, real fucking smooth." Kaidan said.
"What? What's your damage?" Jack asked. After hearing what happened from Rev, a string of curses fell from her mouth.

The drive home was quiet, peaceful even. James worried if what Jack said bothered the other teen. "Hey. Sorry about Jack. She doesn't know when to shut the fuck up sometimes." Osir smiled, "Nah, I'm not bothered by it. I'm was just ready to head home." James looked at the place where Osir directed him to. Looking in disbelief. "Whoa Woah!!" James said, getting out. Osir lives in a fucking penthouse? "Want to come in?" Osir invited, opening the door. Smiling, James accepted this offer without a second thought.
