The Bet [FINISHED]

Monday

"Let's restart this, please!"
She sighed. The rising sun shined into her face and was not the only thing that woke her up. "MUM TURN IT OFF!" The Sound of the TV Show her mum watched every morning, suddenly stopped. She heard footsteps coming to her room.
"Good morning, Lucia." Her mum passed her bed and opened the curtains.
"Get out! Don't you see, I'm trying to sleep." Her mum laughed. "Honey, it's monday. You have to go to school. It's only a few weeks until summer holidays, don't be lazy." Why does she always have to be so energetic...
8:37 AM. Lucia stood in front of her mirror, posing in her Uniform. A dark blue, short skirt with a white line which circles her waist. A white shirt with buttons tucked in the skirt, a blue necktie, white shoes and a dark blue jacket.
She brushed her blonde hair, which reached to her shoulders. For make-up she put on some mascara. She had heavenly blue eyes, everyone loved her eyes. Everyone loved her. That's what she thought. She put lipgloss on her lips. How could they not? She was perfect. On the outside.
"Honey, I made u breakfast." Her mum called from downstairs. Lucia rolled her eyes. "I'm not eating. I'm on a diet, why would you forget that?" Lucia is not mean. That's just how her mum has to be treated, in her opinion.
8:47 AM. "I'm leaving." Her mum came running. "Okay honey, have fun." Lucia ignored her and left the house while being on her Phone.

Olivia: Guys, i think Jeremy likes me! XoX

Cynthia: OMG, what happened?!

Olivia: He asked for my homework! Isn't that so romantic?!

Cynthia: Uh, sure... Lucia, are u awake?

Lucia: Good morning girls, on my way. I'll be there in about 10 minutes. See you XOXO

Olivia: OMG now he asked for...

Without reading the rest of the message, Lucia put away her phone and went to the bus station. She didn't live too far away from school, still she had to take the bus for 2 stations.
As she entered the bus, people started staring from everywhere. As every time. This time she even heard a gasp. Of course they would gasp. She was breathtaking. Everything about her.

8:59 AM. She stood in front of her school and waited for her friends to come. Why can't they hurry up once in their life... "LUCIA" She turned around quickly. Olivia. Olivia was her friend. She came running, her brown, long hair behind her. She had big eyes, always full of curiosity. And she was pretty. Like all of her friends, including Cynthia, a few steps behind Olivia. She knew Cynthia since she was a little kid. They had always been best friends. Cynthia was a ginger. She had freckles all over her face, which made her look unique.

Just as they were about to enter the classroom, the girls heard someone shouting. "Lucia!" Lucia turned her head to the hallways, seeing a blond boy running dramatically in her direction.
"I looked for you everywhere" His hands where on his knees and he breathed heavily.
"Uh.. Jordan, right?" Lucia looked down to him. "Huh? Oh, Ye...Yeah. That's me, I'm Jordan." He got up and started blushing. "I...I just wanted to tell you, uhh, you know, you kissed my cheek and I, I thought maybe we-..."
"HAHAHAHA" Lucia put her arms around her waist, laughing loud. Olivia and Cynthia started giggling too. "And I, I, I wanted t...to ask you, I...If you wanna be my girlfriend...?" Lucia mocked him.
She loved that.
The boy stood there sweating. His eyes wide opened looking into hers.
"Of course not." She tilted her head. "I don't like you and i never will. That kiss? That meant nothing."
The boy was shocked. „Now go away." Lucia loved giving instructions.
Jordans face was full of shame as he turned around and left.
"And another one. Damn, that was your third boy this month." Cynthia laughed as she opened the door to the classroom.
"Good morning ladies." Ugh. Ms Wilbur. "Do you want to tell me why you're late?"
"Sorry Miss. That will not happen again." That was Olivia. Every teacher loved her. The teachers pet.
"Okay, please just sit down."

Throughout the whole lesson, Lucia got her eyes on only one thing. Him. Noah. She had a crush on him since 7th grade. They're seniors now. He was just so handsome. Always laughing and being loud. His voice was deep and his smile gorgeous. He looked so good in his uniform...

The school bell rang.
"Ugh guys, why won't Noah just look at me once. Does he find me ugly?!" Lucia just kept on complaining. Olivia tried calming her friend down with putting her hand in her shoulder.
"Stop he doesn't find you ugly. Maybe he just didn't find a chance to talk to you."
"You know what." Cynthia stopped her in the middle of the hallways.
"I have an idea"
"An idea?"
Now Olivia also looked interested.
"Let's make a bet."

"You want me to make someone fall in love with me in a week? Come on, that's too easy. I could do that in one day. And how is that supposed to make Noah fall in love with me?" Lucia rolled her eyes.
"You didn't let me finish. Do you know who Noah hates the most?" While smirking Cynthia waited for Lucia's answer.
"...Henry..."
"Yup! Henry. And if he sees that Henry likes you, he will do anything to make him mad. Which means-..."
"Which means he would want to steal me!" Lucia started laughing while looking at Cynthia. "Yes. Yes that's great!"
Suddenly her smile dropped. Henry.
"Now...How am i supposed to make someone like Henry fall in love with me. He barely talks."
Olivia laughed. "You're right! Such a weirdo." Cynthia put her hand on Lucia's shoulder. "That's why it's a bet. And don't forget:
One week and you have to own his heart..."
