Chapter XVII

"Guys I have an idea on how we can get Candice back." Bradley announced to the whole lunch table.

"What is it?" Carson questioned as I ran my fingers through my hair, which I had decided to straighten today.

"Well, Owen and I were talking, and we were thinking about glueing her down to a toilet seat." he explained.

"How? We can't get into the girls' bathroom." Leo pointed out.

"But, the girls can." Owen winked at Vanessa.

"Oh I don't think we should-" Vanessa was interrupted.

"Great plan! I can go steal some gorilla glue from my father." Ansley clapped her hands.

"But how would we know which toilet she's gonna use?" I spoke up.

"At the end of lunch, Candice and her clique goes to the bathroom every day. Just glue all of the seats." Bradley responded.

"Sounds great." Ansley agreed.

"I can't wait to see Candice coming out of the bathroom screaming with a toilet seat stuck to her ass!" Carson cheered.

"So when will we do this?" I asked.

"Most likely tomorrow. I'll bring the gorilla glue." Leo answered.

"Sweet." Vanessa clapped her hands and bit into her nutella sandwich.

I flipped through my biology homework papers as I sat next to Link in a quiet classroom. The teacher had left the room to go on their usual bathroom trip.

"Maeve." Link whispered. I turned my head towards him.

"Yes?" I responded.

"I think I have an idea for our first date." he winked.

"What is it?"

"We should go rollerskating."

Link and I first met while rollerskating. That was when Delphi had completely abandoned me, and I was left to be attacked by him and Owen.

"Okay, when?"

"Hmm this Friday?"

"Fine." I agreed, and shook his hand. It was larger than mine, and was also very strong.

"Thank you, seriously." he had a straight face, and all of a sudden his whole body became serious.

"Oh it's no-"

"I don't want you to see me as just one of those guys. I mean, sure I may come off as flirty to you, but really I'm just bad at socializing. But I do like you." he explained, his voice sounding so soothing to my ears.

"I-I-"

"Ah just forget it. I'll see you Friday." he turned his head down to his homework, and started working on it.

Males are so confusing.

The next day when I got to school the group was standing outside the building at an outdoor lunch table. I walked towards them and we all greeted each other, and Leo swiftly pulled glue out from his backpack.
