"So what did you hear last night?" I ask Jake.

"You heard it alone. She knows I am spying on her." Jake says to me and gives me his phone and the earbuds.

I wear earbuds and listen to the conversation that Jake and Jo had last night. Yeah I kind of paid Jake to get him to tell me why Jo has been avoiding me.

"Wait, what were you both doing last night?" I frown and give the phone back to Jake.

"Cuddled....and that turned into a wrestling match." Jake simply said.

"You cuddle with your sister?" I raise my eyebrows.

"Dude, she is my sister. We have cuddled since we were in the womb. Besides we share a room, I have even seen her naked almost everyday and she has seen me naked and shirtless." Jake says to me.

"I don't have any siblings so I don't know about that." I giggle. "And that's it? She told you to not give up on Marley? So does that mean I don't have to give up that easily?"

"Yes, and it's kind of private actually but you got my back and I got your back. You let Marley go for me so I am going to tell you this, the big reason why Jo became a player and never trust guys is because of what our dad has done. He left us and made our mom work really hard alone then Puck lied to us, at first he was cool and asked us to go to L.A with him but then he lied to us about everything he went through so Jo never trusts any guy except me. Besides that I know I am also the one who loves her unconditionally." Jake says as he opens his locker.

I am just being quiet and opening my locker. Yeah, I knew she was afraid of something because she didn't believe in love and guys because she hates those things according to what happened to her parents, but I guess I know how to make her want to ask me to the Sadie Hawkins dance.

"Kitty, you can't ruin that...Jake will go with Marley." I frown at Kitty.

"Well, I don't care about that. I will always try to find a chance, sweetheart." Kitty smirks at me and walks away.

What a bitch. Ugh! I don't know what to do to stop her from being a bitch. I can stop Ryder and pull him away from Marley but Kitty? She is more of a bitch than me and I guess the only one who can stop her is Jake himself.

Well, why do I care? That's not my relationship. I put my books into my locker and take my backpack and shut my locker.

"Whoa!" I was shocked to see Ryder standing next to my locker wearing a mask with Tony Stark's face. "Ryder, what are you doing? You are freaking me out."

"I overheard your conversation with Kitty and you said that you only want to ask Tony Stark to the Sadie Hawkins dance right? Well, I am Tony Stark right now." Ryder giggles.

"Nice try." I chuckle. "But no." I shake my head.

"Why? This is not Ryder this is Robert Downy Jr." Ryder says to me.

"You are crazy." I chuckle and shake my head.

"Please ask me to the Sadie Hawkins dance." Ryder says to me.

"You know the blonde girl from cheerios with the neck brace? She is crazy about you and why don't you go with her?" I ask Ryder.

"I don't want to. I want you to be the one who asks me to the Sadie Hawkins dance even if I have to beg you like this." Ryder says to me and shows me his face with puppy dog eyes.

"My neighbor fluffy is more cute than you." I simply said then laugh.

"Please ask me to the dance." Ryder grins at me.

"You are crazy." I laugh and shake my head.

"Crazy about you." Ryder smirks at me.

I can't handle it and laugh out loud. "Are you drunk at school?" I raise my eyebrows.

"You want me to kiss you again in the hallway?" Ryder smirks at me.

"You want me to slap your face?" I smirk back at him.

"Okay, okay ask me to the Sadie Hawkins dance please." Ryder begged me.

"Fine! But wear that mask again because I don't want to ask you." I said to him.

"Alright." Ryder simply nodded and put the mask back on.

"Okay, so Tony Stark would go to the Sadie Hawkins dance with me?" I raise my eyebrows.

"Honor it would be." Ryder was trying to make an impression.

I can't help but laugh out loud. Okay I admit it, no one is better than Sam at making impressions even though they mostly sound stupid.

"Well, keep wearing that mask when we dance on the dance floor this Saturday." I said to him.

"Wait, what? I can't show off my face?" Ryder frowns at me and takes off the mask.

"If you want to. That's better." I grin at him.

"You are crazy." Ryder simply said.

"You want to go with me or not? If not I will ask the sophomore rugby captain. He is hot by the way." I simply said.

"Okay I will do it." Ryder simply said and wore the mask again.

"Just kidding, I'll go with you. With or without the mask." I chuckle and walked away.

I am starting to walk back down the hallway and turn around as Ryder just smiles at me and takes off the mask then puts it in his locker. This is crazy. Really crazy.

Sorry for the long wait I have been busy with work and school.
