It was the next day and I was mentally preparing for what was about to happen. I literally stayed up last night coaching myself about how I should act around him to not make a fool of myself. I am normally not self conscious but around him I am.

Still thinking about how I was going to play this out, I didn't notice Jake walking towards me in the hallway.

"Hey, Ms. Fowl," he said to me. (I edited Chapter 1 so in case you haven't already you'll need to check it out to understand this reference) 

"Oh, hi Jake," I reply quietly.

"So your house or mine?" he asked.

At the time I had no idea what he was talking about because like I said I was mentally preparing myself for this.

"What?" I asked highly confused.

"Oh my God. I am talking to an idiot. I am talking about the project Mrs. Birch assigned us. Do you remember that or will I need to remind you of that too," he said coldly.

I obviously didn't prepare myself well enough.

"No," I answered timidly.

"So, your house or mine?" he asked again.

I didn't want him to come to my house yet. It's a mess. It's not like I don't live in a nice home, it's just I sometimes forget to clean up the place. And if he came that means he'll see my dirty room and I don't want that.

"Hello? What is wrong with you? Do you always just stare off into space like that?" he asked annoyed.

"No. We'll work at your house," I said quietly.

"Okay, meet me in the parking lot after school," And with that he walked away.

"What did I just see there," Erika says as she walks up to me. "Were you conversing with Jake Paul?" she asked excitedly.

"Yes, but it was only for the project," I answered.

"Oh yeah. That stupid project. I still can't believe I am partners with Chad," she said with disgust.

"You should have heard me. I was so confused and I dozed off into space leaving him to stare at me stare at nothing," I said embarrassed.

"Oh, that is bad," Erika said.

"Thanks, for making me feel way better about myself," I said sarcastically.

"That is my job," Erika said jokingly.

We both walk to first period. (BTW Erika and Tessa have all the same classes with each other)

Time Skip: End of School (Because I can!)

I walked into the parking lot looking for Jake. When I finally found him he was sitting on the hood of a Maybach.
