Ok so I'm doing this at the beginning so people actually read it! Thank you guys sooooooo much!! We are at 33k reads!! That is incredible!! I couldn't be happier. I never thought I would ever get this far so thank you!! Ok enjoy!! plot twist!!!

"Oh my god!" screeched Carry. Shit. Shit. Shit. She covered her mouth in either or horror or surprise. I quickly pushed Louis off to the side and jumped off of the counter.

"It's not what it looks like!" I said walking towards her. What exactly did it look like Jess? I was sitting on the counter, he tripped and his lips hit mine, I thought to myself. Very believable. She removed her hands and she looked almost.... happy?

"Oh my god I knew it! I knew you two liked each other!"she screamed and clapped her hands like she just won the lottery or something. This is not what I was expecting. "Why didn't Todd tell me about you two?" she asked.

"Because he doesn't know..." I heard Louis speak up. He joined me by my side.

"He doesn't?" she said in a whisper.

"No. So can you..." I choked on the words. I was about to do something I never thought I would, I was going to beg Carry. "...Please not tell him."

"Why shouldn't I? It's not that big of a deal," she said confused.

"No it is, trust me," Louis argued.

"Well than I need you to do something for me, Jess," she said stepping forward. All the air was pushed out of me when she said my name. I wasn't doing any favors for her. But if I had to choose between loosing Louis or loosing my dignity I would choose loosing my dignity.

"What?" I groaned.

"I need you to actually try and get along with me and give me a chance to prove to you that I'm not as bad as you actually think." Well I guess that wasn't so bad, I could deal with that.

"Fine, but you have to promise not to tell Todd anything and I mean anything about Louis and I. No hinting, no trying to set us up and you definitely do not tell Larissa or anyone else, got it?"

"Deal," she said with a smug smile. I rolled my eyes at her. "Now we all better go back downstairs before Todd freaks out."

I walked down the stairs behind Carry, Louis following behind.

"Took you long enough," my brother groaned.

"Sorry. Just had to make sure it was nice and burnt just the way you like it," I said sarcastically with the most fake smile I could conjure up. I set the bowl of popcorn down on the table in front of Todd. Louis and Carry took their previous seats. I was about to leave when Carry stopped me.

"I think Jess should stay," she said to my horror. My eyes opened wide and switched between all the different faces in the room.

"Why?" Todd asked confused.

"Because she made you popcorn. You should offer her a drink or something," she replied. She flashed me a smile. What the hell was she thinking? Oh god was she going to tell him or was this all a plan to torture me to get revenge for my dislike towards her? I guess we will find out.

"She doesn't drink. Well she shouldn't anyways," Todd said shoving a handful of popcorn in his mouth. "But she can stay," he mumbled. This is turning worse every minute.

"I'm fine. I'm gonna head back up-"

"No it's fine Jess, stay. I want to get to know you," Carry interrupted. She shot me a look as if to say," You're staying whether you like it or not."

"Ok," I said hesitantly.

"Take a seat," she said pointing in between Louis and Larissa. Don't tell me to take a seat this is my own god damn house and I'll sit where I want...of course there was only one spot left to sit in... so I guess I'll sit where a seat is available. I sat down cautiously, trying not to be touching either Larissa or Louis. When I looked over, Louis looked like he was about to puke or something. This is the first time I saw him nervous ever.
