Chapter 9: Mission Success.

"Why are we doing this?" I whisper in Ella's ear, she turns her head slightly, her eyes holding a mischievous glint.

"Because it'll get his attention." She whispers back excitedly. I look at the object in her hand and shake my head.

"Don't do it, he'll kill you."

"Oh." She laughs. "But it'll be so worth it."

4 hours before...

"Ashley!"

Please don't see me, please don't see me.

"Ashley! I see you!"

Damn it.

Slowly I turn around plastering a fake smile on my face.

"Hi Elizabeth." I say to the red head in front of me. She smiles brightly.

"I was wondering if you wanted to go get lunch?"

I pull a tight face. "I don't know, I gotta meet up with some other people."

Her smile falters slightly. "Well another time, maybe?"

"Sure." No.

She smiles once more before turning around. Elizabeth and I met a few hours ago in one of the business classes. She now thinks we're friends.

Shaking my head at her I make my way to the cafeteria. I spot Ella, Megan, Jason, Isaac and Logan all sitting at one table.

"Hey" I say making my way towards them. Jason and Isaac nods at me, Ella and Megan smile at me and as usual, Logan glares at me.

"I'm feeling the love from you." I whisper purposely sitting beside him.

"Can you move?" He asks.

"Nope." I quickly steal one of his slices of pizza.

"Hey!" He cries watching as I eat his pizza. "That's mine!"

I stare at his plate. "You still have like another nine slices." I say with my mouth full. His eyes narrow, "Don't touch my food again."

Turning away from him I turn towards Ella, who is like usual, staring at Isaac.
I nudge her, her head whips to mine.

"What?" She whispers, I glance at Isaac who is talking to Jason.

"You're staring." I whisper, she looks at Isaac.

"No, I'm not."

"Yes, you are."

"No, I'm not."

"Yes you-"

"Why are we whispering?" Megan says popping her head between us.

"She." I point to Ella, "Is staring at someone."

Ella's face goes slightly red, whilst Megan's forms into confusion.

"Who's this someone?"

I turn to Ella, "Does she know?"

"Yeah."

I turn back to Megan who is looking around the room for this someone.

"Megan." I slap her arm, "He is right in front of you." I whisper as quiet as I can.

"So what you're saying is that they guy Ella likes is right in front of me!?" She shrieks. The table falls quiet.

I bring my hands to my head and sigh.   "You weren't supposed to tell the world!" I whisper to her. She covers he mouth.
