As mentioned before, a fxxkboy will eventually stop pursuing you if you ignore him. However, being able to predict his advances before he actually executes them will put you one step ahead of him in the game.

As soon as the Biology teacher rushed into the lab for class, he told everyone to pair up. My two choices were either Betty or Kevin. Moose snatched Kevin first, so I whipped my head to Betty who was already stolen by Veronica.

"Why is everyone ditching me? Where is your loyalty?" I asked brusquely.

Kevin and Betty visibly grimaced and sent apologetic looks at me. My attention was diverted to the sound of the stool beside me scraping harshly against the floor.

"Geez, what is that-" I spat.

"Sorry, looks like I'm the only loyal one," Reggie grinned at me.

"Oh, hey," I greeted him. My lips spread into a bright smile, and I could feel my cheeks heating up. "I guess you're my lab partner for the year,"

"Good thing, too. I really need your help if I'm even gonna be considered for captain,"

"Ah, you just need the brains, not the company,"

"Mia, you know that's not what I meant. The company is great. More than great, actually," he chuckled. Images of us in Cheryl's closet flashed in my mind, making my heartbeat increase tremendously.

He really needs to stop.

"Since the company is so great, would you care to be the one to slice the frog?" I said, gesturing towards the amphibian laying on the tray.

"Not in a dissecting sort of mood?" he joked.

"Not really... Curve-ball trajectory calculations are more up my alley," I scoffed.

I looked up to see his adorable confused expression.

"Don't worry about it," I smiled.

We continued to do our classwork, and we proved to be a pretty great pair. Reggie was quite an attentive listener and executed my instructions flawlessly. I did not have the stomach to actually cut open the frog, but I had no qualms about analyzing it.



"So, are you and Moose, like, a thing now?" I asked Kevin, as we walked to our lunch table.

"I wish, but I'm pretty sure someone named Moose is as gay as a ruler,"

"Huh? A ruler?" I asked.

Kevin rolled his eyes.

"Because rulers are straight," he sighed.

"Oh..." I trailed.

"Mia," Veronica nudged me. "What did Reggie want with you today? And I still have yet to hear the steamy details about your little engagement after the dance-"

She paused for a moment and her eyes widened in shock. She looked at Betty apologetically. "Um- I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to-"

"It's fine," sighed Betty. "Mia, spill the tea,"

I was still a little skeptical about Veronica, but if she had cupcakes flown in from New York as an apology to Betty, then she seemed genuine enough. I mean, no matter how much money or popularity you had, it wasn't worth trying to patch up a friendship with two nobodies like us.

"Yeah, Mia," Kevin encouraged. "I haven't been updated either,"

"You guys are relentless," I sighed. "Well, we really stuck by tradition while we were in there,"

"Wait," Kevin had to take a deep breath. "You two actually... fooled around in there?"

"We didn't fool around, Kev. We just made out for the remaining six minutes,"
