Epilogue

With the earring off, Jason was surprised how normal things became and how quickly. The instant Stacy found her clothes again she put them on, she also cleaned her face the first chance she got. As they walked out across the car park nothing seemed amiss. His decision not to mess around with the permanent reality altering earring felt like the right one and Jason took solace in how normal things felt personally for him.

They got into the car and Stacy turned the key, eager to get home.

"Your father should be home by now. He's going to want to know all about tonight. " She said focusing on driving the car.

"Ill bet..." Jason said looking about the window as they left the school. He peered down a side road as they sped away. He caught a glimpse of a police car, still were he left it. He chuckled to himself and leaned back into his seat giving a stretch, content with how the night went.

Noise filled the large house as both Jason and Stacy spilled out into the hallway.

"We're back!" Stacy yelled. A man in a suit with a beard came out to meet them.

"So how did it go?" The man asked

"Very well" Stacy beamed at the man quickly moving to latch onto his arm.

"Yeah not to bad. Can't complain about anything. Isn't that right Stacy" Jason smiled a shit eating grin at his enemy.

"Well, I wouldn't say that. Most of his teachers seemed content with his progress but his English teacher had another story" Stacy was hugging Jason's father as she looked Jason in the eyes, returning another even bigger shit eating grin.

Jason's blood ran cold.

"W-What?" He stammered. "Miss Hudson didn't even show up to our meeting, it was a no show."

"True" Stacy agreed. "But guess who I ran into in the ladies toilets before we left!"

"What?! H-How?" Jason's pulse started to hammer

"Well, it was a accident really, but she was kinda in the way next to the sink, I asked her if she was one of the parents or not, just making conversion and what do you know it, she was our missing English teacher! She apologised for being tied up and I once I told her who I was here with, she let it rip with some of the worst stuff I've heard"

"Really?" Jason's fathers features darkened.

Jason looked between the two panicked. "No it's not like that!"

"Well, we will see. Miss Hudson was it?" The man turned to Stacy for confirmation, she nodded. "Ill have to follow up on this. Thank you my love" He leaned in an gave Stacy a kiss on the forehead, Stacy maintained her stare at Jason. She had won.

"We will talk about this more over food. I don't like the sound of this son." Jason's Father added as he turned to leave with Stacy clinging onto him, leaving his son alone in the hall.

Jason felt a knot in his stomach. This was the last thing he wanted to happen. Whatever way he went about dealing with this night, this was not the right one. Things in his house hold were about to get bad. From this point on, it might as well be over for him.
