Soon everyone came out and sat down

"How did everyone sleep?" Silvia asked

"Not well..." Nelly said

"Yeah...knowing Dej almost died" Hurley said

Caleb walked out casually

"Well last night was pretty uhh....tragic...I guess" He sat down

"Where were you? You weren't around when Dej screamed" Jude asked

Now that he mentions it, I didn't see Caleb at all that night

"I didn't have to be there if I didn't wanna be there" He said

"Did you do that to her?!" Jordan yelled

"Calm down Jordan" Lily said

"I don't care anything about her or what happened to her... She was too uppity anyway"

Jordan was about to hit him, but Mark and Xavier held him back

"Jordan you have to calm down..." Xavier told him

"Yeah...Maybe your just getting to sensitive about Dej. I know you love her, but you can't attack people cause they say something about her that You don't like" Darren explained

Jordan growled and shook Xavier and Mark off of him

"Get off me"

"Caleb, can you at least tell us where you were" I said

"Away from you all"

"Where away from us?" Jordan snapped

"Somewhere..." He held his stomach and began talking in his fake innocent voice "I'm hungry, can we eat?"

I sighed

We aren't gonna get anything from him

"Sure...we'll cook breakfast" Silvia said

In the cafeteria

As I helped with breakfast, I thought about all the stuff Caleb said

"Lily, do you think Caleb tried to kill Dej?" I asked her

"I'm not sure. He seems like he doesn't care if she's alive or dead...but I wonder where he was" She replied

"I think he could be a suspect. Because he won't tell us where he was" I said

"Yes, but you can't assume, it will only get you in something even worse" Lily said

"Right..."

Where was he?

And why won't he tell us?

"Well we gotta figure out where he was..." I said

Lily nodded in agreement

"Well he does know about her nearly dying...but he said it was tragic...I guess. I wonder what that means" Lily said

"He maybe just doesn't care what happens to the team, as long as he survives" I said annoyed

"He's always been like that. He could be just trying to get to us" Lily sighed

Maybe...

Maybe not...

"I said he was getting away from us though..."

"That means he must've predicted Dej's near death and got away from us all and watched us all find out later"

"How could he have predicted it?"

Silence

Lily's eyes suddenly widened

"What is it?" I asked

"Caleb must be connected to the culprit"

My eyes widened

"Because if he "predicted" it, then he must've found out by the culprit telling him"

It made sense, but it didn't

But Lily may be true
