Teenage Diaries

Plans, Plans, Plans

"Is there something we don't know?" May looked at me.

"About that picture," I was beginning to panic. "It's not what it looks like."

"Then what were you doing there with Jake? You know that Wendy's going to kill you now, right?" Tanya explained.

"I know. We were there because," I couldn't tell them about Ashley. "Because.. Yes! Because both of us became friends again." How dumb was that?

"Really?" Lucy didn't look convinced. She looked intimidating with her dark eyes and the studs on her jacket.

"Yeah. I'm sure Jake isn't happy about this either. But who could do this?" I sighed.

"I think that this will help you." Said Tanya.

What was she talking about?

She continued. "You like Zach. You are not sure Zach likes you. One way to be sure is to see if he gets affected by this picture."

"Um, how?"

"She really is dense." May told Tanya. "There's something called jealousy Angie. If Zach likes you, he will not let this go easily."

My lips rounded into an o as realization hit me. Whether Zach liked me or not was a major question nagging me since a long time. Sure he flirted with me, then again he was known as a player for a reason. At least I THINK he flirted with me. Wendy's clique was more his type - they had the three P's - Pretty, Popular and Plastic. And I was the three G's - Geek, Geekier and Geekiest.

Thank god people like me weren't bullied like in other high schools.

The bell rang, which meant it was time to get to class. I had Literature to go to. Which meant Zach, Jake and Wendy and all my friends and I shared the same class. The only class.

As soon as I got to my place, the teacher shimmied in, all her Barbie perfume making us cough. Suddenly a piece of paper hit me. Picking it up, I opened it and read,

We need to talk. Jake's scrawny writing.

I turned to Jake and he motioned me to write something down. He was so childish at times.

About what? I threw it back at him.

The paper came flying back to me in no time.

Some kid clicked a photo of us at Starbucks and people think there's something going on between us.

I began writing to him when I heard someone cough above me. Barbie perfume wafted around me.

"Ahem, Miss Hasting. I will not tolerate paper chatting between you and your," she glared at Jake, "Friend." She finished off. Then she pointed to the door.

"Both of you, out!" I quickly slid away from her and went out of the class, followed by Jake.

"This is the first time I've been punished and it's all because of you." I glowered at him.

"It's your fault you didn't write faster." He simply shot back.

"Seriously Jake?" I looked at him in wonder.

"Okay fine. Now tell me how we are going to deal with this situation."

"I don't know."

"You're the genius here. Think of something."

"I'm socially backward Jake. The most popular guy of our school moves into my neighborhood and I don't even know about it."

"Zach? I thought I was the most popular guy at school." He whined.

"I don't know what I'm going to do with you. So do we find out who did this?"

"Maybe someone who hates us. Or someone who likes attention. Do you have the photo with you right now?"

"No, why?"

"Behind the photo there will be a watermark of the studio the person must have got the photos done. Now who's the genius?"

"Okay you win. But now Wendy hates me so me going to the party is out of question. Goodbye Taylor Lautner." I sighed gloomily.

Jake gave me a weird look then straightened his face.

"Yeah, she is mad at me too. What do we do?"

"I don't know. She's your girlfriend. You know her better."

Then he muttered something under his breath that I could not hear and when I gave him a questioning look he just shook his head. The most popular guy of school could be so weird at times.

"Um, I think we should first find out who did this. Then I can convince Wendy that the rumors aren't true and hello Taylor Lautner again! Not that I'm interested in him." He added quickly when I looked at him weirdly. Then I nodded.

"The plan's not an excellent one but still it's something. Now we just wait for the bell to ring and set the plan to motion." I rubbed my hands to add extra effect. In return he gave a determined smile.

"So how's things between you and Ashley going? I didn't see her in school today."

"That's because she hasn't come. Tanya complained of coming alone today since Ashley is her ride too."

"Well, you've got only tomorrow to set things right. Hope MY plan doesn't fail."

"Yeah, the one I don't even know of."

I gave him a glare and he just ran his hand over his blond hair, smirking. Not to mention subtly, flexing his biceps too.

Not that I would fall for those kind of things.

Hm.
