When Mahdi, Magnus and Eskild finally got over their shock, we continued working on our clocks and they just couldn't keep their mouths shut.

"So, have you and Even kissed?" Magnus asked.

"Of course they have!" Eskild said and turned to look at me. "Right?"

I sighed and nodded.

"What was it like?" Magnus asked.

"Was it better than kissing girls?" Mahdi asked.

I groaned.

"Yeah, sure", I said. "You should try it sometime."

They all laughed at me and I rolled my eyes.

"Thanks but I think I'll leave it to you", Magnus said. "I have my eyes on Vilde, anyway."

"You are never going to get her", Eskild said, raising an eyebrow.

Magnus glared at him. "Thanks for the support."

"But it's true! Vilde slapped you last year, remember?"

"Because I was being rude for trying to just kiss her out of the blue."

"And you think this year she has changed her mind?"

Magnus shrugged. "Maybe."

"If Isak managed to get Even then you can get Vilde", Mahdi said.

I lifted my hands up. "Wow, wow, wow. First of all, I haven't got Even, remember? Second of all, just what the fuck was that supposed to mean?"

"I mean, have you seen that guy, Isak?" Mahdi said. "He's waaay out of your league."

"What?!" I exclaimed. "You're kidding me, right?"

"Maybe, I don't know."

"Eskild? Is Even out of my league?" I asked, turning to look at my friend.

Eskild shrugged. "I mean... he is quite something."

I sunk down on my seat and crossed my arms. "Great. Thanks, guys."

Jonas patted my shoulder and smiled at me.

"Don't worry", he said. "He likes you, you've basically won already."

I sighed. "I guess."

Of course, that meant nothing if Even doesn't come after me. If he doesn't clear things up with Sonja. Then his words wouldn't mean a thing. Then it wouldn't matter whether he liked me or not if he wasn't going to make a move on me again.

The bell rang just then, making me snap out of my thoughts. We got up and went for the dinner. People walked in slowly and it felt like forever until everyone was in. I was starving and waited impatiently that Even's table would stand up and fetch the food first.

I looked at my friends and each and everyone of them was glancing at Even all the time, and then whispering to each other and glancing at him again. Technically I understood them, they probably saw Even with completely new eyes but Jesus Christ, could they at least try to be subtle?

When Even walked past us his arm brushed against mine and I tensed, holding my breath. Jonas poked my ribs.

"Act normal, for God's sake", he hissed through his teeth.
