CLEO POV:

Amity has been getting in the way of my plan, and it's really frustrating. I've been trying to talk to Luz, but every time I do Amity is there. That one month went by faster than I expected.

I need someone who will actually help me with this plan. Luna doesn't do anything, she just listens. I need to win Luz over from Amity, Amity needs a better reputation, I'm doing this for her.

Right? Who doesn't want a good reputation. Luz is not for Amity, they don't work out together. They just can't.

Boscha wouldn't help, yeah she's kinda a jerk to Amity, but she would never stab her in the back like that.

I know exactly who can help me.

LUNA POV:

"Can you help me with this problem?" I hear a voice from behind me, I look over and see Cleo. I think that's her name. A lot of people talk about her for some reason.

It's never about anything good though.

Whenever Cleo is the topic of a conversation, it's about a rumor that she's in again or something like that. I don't know why it's always her though, there are a lot of people in this school, and people just pick Cleo.

"Which one?" I ask, fully facing Cleo now. She holds up her paper and points at the question.

I look at my paper, and realize I haven't done it yet. "I'm not on that one yet, but if I know then I'll help," I say, with a very small smile on my face, trying not to seem like a bitch or anything.

"Okay, do you wanna come over to my dorm tonight?" That was fast. Why is Cleo already asking me to come over to her dorm? We just started talking..

"Uh, sure, I can come over tonight." I state, hesitantly.

"Can I get your number?" Cleo suddenly asks. I mean, I guess she needs it if we're hanging out tonight, so I gotta say yes. "Sure."

I take out my notebook from my backpack and rip out a piece of paper. I begin writing my number on it, then I fold it up and hand it to Cleo.

She takes it from my hand, and then looks up at me and smiles. I smile back at her and get back to doing my assignment.

LUNA POV:

I knock on Cleo's dorm door, and the door opens in a second. She looks me up and down, and then smiles. "Come in," Cleo moves out of the way to let me in.

Cleo's dorm is very clean and organized. "I cleaned it before you came over," Cleo states, she must've noticed me observing her dorm.

"Anyways, let's go to my room." She starts leading me to her room, and I notice a picture hanging on the wall. It looks like it's Cleo and her mom. I smile slightly at the picture.

She opens the door to her room, and I make my way to the bed, "can I sit on your bed?" Cleo nods her head, and I sit down. She makes her way to her own bed and sits down next to me.

"So, what did you invite me over for?" I turn over to face her. "I have a plan," Cleo begins.

AMITY POV:

Today's been a boring day so far. Nothing has really been happening. I'm also really tired. I stayed up all night studying.

I have a test coming up soon, so I need to be focused. I can't get distracted by anything. I usually do good, though. Hopefully I'll do good on the test.

It's been kinda boring today, it's also very quiet. No fights, no trouble makers, no teachers yelling, and it seems like everyones not in a bad mood.

Something bad usually happens when a day is like this. A silent day with no problems usually turns into a crying day with a lot more problems.

Hopefully it doesn't turn into a shitty day.

LUNA POV:

Cleo just told me about her new plan to win Luz over Amity. I have no idea what to do, because it is way more intense then her last plan. I don't know why Luz is so important to her.

They, Cleo & Luz, have never talked before this year. Cleo only got to this school this year. They got close very fast, or at least Cleo got close to Luz very fast.

I don't know if the feeling is mutual, because Luz doesn't seem as obsessed with Cleo as Cleo is obsessed with Luz. Luz probably doesn't have a whole plan to win Cleo over someone.

Amity has to know about the plan. I don't care if I die because I tell her, I'd much rather die with her knowing then not knowing.

AMITY POV:

As soon as I walk into the cafeteria, I run into someone. "Ow- I'm sorry, I didn't mean-" I look up, "to." It's Luz, of course it's Luz, it's always Luz.

Why am I always running into her? There can never be a day where Luz isn't in it. I mean.. I'm not complaining- "It's okay," Luz cuts my thoughts off, while smiling at me.

"Let's go to our table," Luz suggests. I nod my head, and she holds my hand to lead me to the table where we always sit at.

Willow and Gus are already there, of course. They always get here before us, for some reason.

I suddenly see Luna looking straight at me, and I give her a confused look, because she is literally staring into my soul.

Luna then points to the bathroom. I tilt my head, showing even more confusion. She just keeps staring at me, so I guess I should go.

"Sorry guys, I'll be right back," I state to Willow, Gus, and Luz. They nod their heads in understanding.

I make my way to the bathroom, and so does Luna. No one is in the bathroom, so that's good, because I'm scared of what is about to happen.

Right after I get in the bathroom, I hear Luna's footsteps getting closer. When I see her, she looks nervous.

"Sooo.. What is it?" I question, tilting my head. "I need to tell you something about Cleo." I stay silent, letting her go on. "So, she kinda like," Luna hesitates, "has this plan to separate you and Luz..."

My eyes widen. What? What'd I ever do to Cleo, I barely even know her. In fact, I don't talk to her, like, at all. The most we've done is made eye contact, or that's all I can remember.

"Do you know why?" I ask, not sure of why she would want to separate me and Luz. "Uh.. Yeah."

LUNA POV:

I try to find the right words, because I don't know how Amity is going to take this information. Odalia picked Cleo to be a spy for her, to spy on Amity.

"Cleo wants to separate you and Luz because she's a Odalia's 'helper.' And Odalia doesn't want you hanging out with Luz, because it ruins your reputation."

Amity's jaw drops. That's the kind of reaction I expected. However, I see her eyes suddenly start to get watery.

"Wait- Wait, wait," I say while putting my arms on her shoulders. "It will be okay, we'll find a way to make everything okay."

"And how are we going to do that?" She questions, sounding sorta irritated. "Well, I don't know... But we'll figure it out."

She nods her head and wipes her tears, and I give her a hug. I can't imagine being in a situation like this. I really hope we figure something out- No, I know we'll figure something out.
