      We were all sat on the banister as Bender hopped down off it. "I'm gonna go back before Vernon catches me" he told us as we nodded. On his way out he stopped but didn't look back

     "I'm in the storage room beside the faculty toilets" he said before walking out. None of us needed to ask who it was directed towards for us to know it was for Claire.

     It went quiet again as we all sat there. Andrew, me, Allison, Claire and then Brian. Claire cleared her throat and looked to Brian

"Brian?"

"Yeah?"

      "Are you gonna write your paper?" She asked him as he looked at all of us

     "Yeah, why?" Claire looked back at us before turning to him

      "Well, it's kinda a waste for all of us to write our paper, don't you think?" She said as I looked at her. Where is she going with this?

      "True, but I think we'd all kinda say the same thing" she said as he smiled

     "You just don't wanna write your paper" he said as she looked away

     "True, but, your the smartest, right?" She asked as he looked away

"Well" he said proudly as she looked at him

     "We trust you" she said as Brian looked at us for confirmation.

    "Yeah" Andy said from beside me as I nodded to Brian and he smiled

    "All right, I'll do it" he said as we nodded. Claire caught my eye before looking at Allisons clothes

      "Oh god I know that look" I said you see my breath as Allison looked at me confused before turning to Claire. A smile crossed her face as she motioned towards the room

"Come on" she said as Allison looked at me

"Where're we going?" She asked Claire

     "Come on! You too Em" she said and jumped down as I groaned

     "Where are we going" asked again "to the bathroom?" Allison asked while jumping down as Claire rolled her eyes

     "No you've already eaten" she said making me scoff

     "Jesus Claire, you sound like my mother" I said jokingly, jumping down.

Claire grabbed her bag and made for a small office.

"What are we doing" Allison asked me

        "Now don't make a break for it but I think Claire's gonna give you a makeover" I said as he eyes widened and she stopped "cmon, I won't let her over do it and put loads of eyeshadow on and red lipstick" I said as she eyed me

"Promise?"

   "I promise" I said as I put out my hand and she took hold of it.

     We walked into the small room off the librabry and Claire spread everything out on the table.

     "Is it just me or is it really hot in here?" I asked taking off the jacket I had on.  Allison nodded as she took off her jumper and scarf. I looked up from the ground and my mouth fell open.

     "Oh my god, Allison" I said as I looked at the pink blouse she had on. "Why would you cover this up" I asked as I walked around her looking at it.

She shrugged as Claire and I smiled at each other.

      "Sit" Claire said as Allison took her place on the table. Claire got tissue and a bit of makeup remover and took the black from allisons  eyes
