"you snitch," marco jokingly scoffed at the girl taking a seat beside him in the first period science class on monday morning.
"did elias follow you?" penelope softly groaned as she pulled her belongings out of her bag.
"mhm," he slowly nodded. "how much stalking did yous do to find me?"
"um layla, my friend, looked on the school account.." she explained.
"mh.. right.."
"i told him not to follow you," she replied. "not for any bad reason.. i just didn't want you to know that i told them.."
"it's fine," he chuckled. "i already had his account anyway.."
"what?"
"same reason.." he shrugged. "found you through the school account since i knew your name not his, then you have a public account, and he's tagged in your posts."
"did you follow him back?"
"yeah," marco nodded. "we've been talking- anyway um hows things with your boy huh?"
she softly shook her head.
"not good?" he watched her movements as she fiddle with her pen, her eyes looking down at her hands. "literally from the one interaction i've had with him.. i don't think he deserves you anyway.."
"mh.."
the two fell into silence as their teacher gained the room's attention, introducing the lesson plan before getting them all split off into little groups for the actual science experiment. penelope sticking close by marco as she didn't know the other two they were paired with, and felt awkward taking control.
"penny.. i know how you can get.. you know who.." marco softly spoke, folding his arms as he lent against the wall and looked over at her.
"what was that?" she turned her attention to him.
"i have an idea," he repeated, knowing the two across the couldn't hear him completely, gently grabbing her arm and pulling her over closer to himself. "forget the experiment for a moment and hear me out.."
"go on then.."
"you wanna win his attention back?" he rhetorically asked and slightly raised a brow. "we have math last today right, so seems he's choose to sit at the back again the other day, i'll take the seat next to you again. and guess who doesn't know anything about me.. basically everyone, so all we gotta do then is pretend like something romantic's going on.."
"you and el think so alike," penelope softly shook her head.
"has he suggested that as well?" he chuckled.
"not that exactly but like he said like i should pretend to sorta 'play him' or something if he acts like a dick towards me by having a fake boyfriend," she babbled.
"well.. i mean, guys like jonah, that's unfortunately how you get their attention.." he subtly shrugged. "they realise that you're 'no longer their's' and wanna get that like power, per se, back."
"hm.." she nodded, stepping forward again and bringing her attention back to the experiment.
"what do you say about doing that though?" he copied her actings, his eyes staying on her. "we don't have to kiss or anything, it's as simple as talking, being a little touchy if want, show your cute smile and rosy cheeks off-"
"could you two help?" wendy, their classmate, scoffed as she interrupted the boy. "don't think you can just stand there and be able to pass class with us doing everything."
"yeah, yeah, sorry," penelope replied, fiddling with her fingers as she avoided making direct eye contact. "what would you like us to do?"
"you make the call and i'll help," marco whispered in her ear after the other girl had instructed her.
"i'll see.." she whispered back.
