Noah's room fitted his personality like a glove. I placed my bags by the door and stumbled in, for starters it was massive, and opposite the door was a gigantic window which looked out onto his swimming pool in his back garden. The room unlike Coles was void of over excessive things; in fact he hardly had anything. I bet it's under his bed. The walls were plastered in white from tip to toe and sitting in the middle of his room like a prize was his bed. A king sized black framed bed with white sheets. The rest of his room fit that theme. I fought the urge to take out my phone, capture a photo and post it on Tumblr with the hashtag; fuck.

Noah must have seen my face, as a smug smirk appeared on his face within seconds. "I know what you're thinking, you're thinking damm this room is almost as perfect as your face Noah", he said that last bit in a high pitched voice. I rolled my eyes and although my inner thoughts agreed with him, I buried them and turned to face him.

"Actually I was wondering where all your things were" I walked over to a marble stone decoration, picked it up and put it down whilst looking bored. "You do own stuff don't you Noah".

His face fell, "its art" he snapped and stood up abruptly.

I shook my head in amusement, "No Noah, it's Tumblr and from what I can see you pretty boy are spending wayyy to much time on it"

He smiled a wide genuine "You caught me Ariel" I stood admiring his room for one minute before two large hands gripped my shoulders which caused me to jump and squeal at the same time. He pushed me out the door and slammed it behind us. "You're never going to be in my room so there's no point in staying there" he said loudly. He picked up my bags and I followed him to what I presumed was the guest room.

"Then why did you show me your room in the first place "I asked confused.

"So you would envy me whilst you slept in this hell hole"

When Noah swung open the door to the guest room I really was expecting worse, instead I was faced with a comfortably sized, nicely decorated guest room. Noah really needed to google the word hell hole because this wasn't it.

"This is it" I asked unimpressed raising an eyebrow. He looked at me confused. "This is the hell hole, wow Noah I thought you would at least deliver", he finally smirked catching onto my sarcasm.

"Well you can stay in the dog's house if you want...." He trailed off; looking rather smug he threw my stuff into the corner and bounced onto the bed. He invited me to lie next to him but I refused knowing if I sat down I wasn't getting up.

A comfortable silence loomed over us as we both drowned in our thoughts. "What are we going to do?" I asked quietly, I leant against the walls and went through today's events in speed. This was so messed up and we both knew it.

"Well " he said repositioning himself on the bed so he cast the full weight of his blue eyes on me, "first we talk things out, decide where we stand, find out what's really going on and well fix the problem."

"All in one day" I said dumfound. The thought of this plan and continuing mine and Blair's plan made me feel dizzy.

He snorted "I wish, that's only phase one"

"What's phase two" I asked curious.

He opened his mouth to answer but then shut it, shaking his head he finally answered "That's tomorrow's problem babe"

He walked towards the door leaving me standing awkwardly in this room. "Wait" I called out, he turned quickly in response " Is your mom okay with me staying here" I asked almost shyly, I usually never just did stuff like this, on a whim.

He nodded firmly "Yeah I briefed her, she'll love you... I promise". He walked out of my room but I called him again. This time he turned around with reluctance "What now Ariel" he groaned.

"Can Blair come over?"

1 hour later Blair was standing in the entrance hall of Noah's house with the biggest grin on her face and armed with a suitcase in her hand. I guess she has forgiven me then, the previous talk on the phone was to say the least painful but her anger has seemed to have worn off. She hopped over to me; dressed in pastel pink she looked happy. Very happy.

"Omg" she squeaked, grabbing onto my arm, I couldn't help but giggle back. Once we were safely in the guest room Blair proceeded to jump up and down and her excitement made me feel excited, for the first time in hours I was genuinely laughing.

Once our excitement wore off Blair jumped onto the bed next to me. "This is so perfect" she giggled, I nodded smiling.

"What are we going to do?" I asked in a hushed voice, I was well aware Noah's room was across the hall and I didn't want him hearing anything.

"Well the next part of the plan was to, have an excuse to be in close proximity with him, but that's already been checked off" she smiled to herself and collapsed onto the bed. "This makes everything so much easier, making him jealous, making him like you. Everything."

"Yeah but what now" I asked, eager to do something.

"For now all you have to do is rock these amazing outfits I picked up for you." I glanced over at the suitcase and inwardly groaned.

"Anything else" I wondered.

"Yeah if you can bring guys over, not too many just enough for annoyance" I shook my head at her but agreed.

" I could bring Cole over"

Blair immediately sat up, interest sparking. "Good idea pit them against each other"

We fell into a comfortable silence, as we both thought about the boys. But something was unsettling me. "Blair" I asked hesitantly.

"Yeah"

"What if this is wrong" I murmured.

"They did this to you Ariel, they pranked you and probably would still be pranking you if it wasn't for that creep. They didn't let you do the one thing you've loved to do since you were a kid... You can't let them fuck that up for you and get away with it" she said seriously.

"it's not that, when I'm with you I get that this is a joke a big prank. But when I'm with them it's real. People want to kill him" I said raising my voice "A guy chased us in a car threatened us with a gun and my brother stepped out" I said my voice cracking towards the end. "I just don't know what's a game and what's real anymore."

We both paused for a second thinking, eventually Blair spoke swinging her hair down her shoulder "Your forgetting that as soon as this rolls over everything's going to be back to normal. We are not going to play dirty, this is just a little game that you're going to win to get the back at them for everything. We don't have to dig into drugs and gangs to break them the only thing we need is you and some killer heels" she said laughing.

I joined in laughing "Yeah this is just a game. . ." i said, she nodded and bounced off my bed, heading for the door.

"Night Air" she chimed.

"Night B"
