"I told you we would win" Reggie smirks down at the blonde. Fae rolls her eyes at her best friend. "Bulldogs never loose, Princess" he leans down and kisses the top of her head. "Besides, I had my good luck charm."

Fae turns to around so she is facing Reggie while walking backwards to the bus. "You have a good luck charm?" She says as she raises an eyebrow at him. She doesn't believe him, he's not one to put faith in things like that.

"It's new, but it seems to be working." He rubs at the back of his neck as a blush covers his cheeks. Fae tilts her head to the side slightly in confusion. She doesn't understand why he is suddenly so shy. No not shy, maybe embarrassed, Fae's not quite sure.

"Well, what is your good luck charm? Please don't tell me it's your new shoes, that is lame." Fae giggles as she looks him over trying to see what's new. "Don't say boxers either, that's just gross.." She smiles at him.

Reggie smiles as shakes his head. "It's none of those things. Actually it's not an object at all." He turns her back around so she can see where she's walking. Wrapping his arm around her he says "It's a person."

"hmm, new person in your life... let's see... well it can't be the twins. It can't be Ginger either, you don't like her. Tina's not new.. Moose has been around longer then Jason..." She starts listing off people whom went to the game with them.

Reggie shakes his head with every name that leaves her mouth. How can someone so smart be so clueless. "Fae, sweetheart, you're the only new person in my life. You are my good luck charm."

Fae's cheeks heat up instantly. "Me? But I'm not lucky. If anything I'm the opposite. I am the most unlucky person in the world. I just recently had a small dose of my own good luck. I'm still waiting for the other shoe to drop."

Reggie lets her enter the bus first then follows close behind. "You're not unlucky. Jason" Reggie calls to his friend. "Tell Fae she's our good luck charm."

Jason looks up from where he is seated with his sister and smiles. "Well of course she is. We never win a game by that many points. Luck has been on our side from the day we saw her in Pop's before school."

"Yeah" Cheryl is quick to jump in. "I've never had a better friend. Not to mention the moment she came into my life the Vixens have improved, we found a new flyer and everything."

Fae starts fiddling with the sleeves of Reggies sweatshirt, which she stole from him half way through the game. "Guys.." Fae is beyond red at this point.

"You've also calmed these guys down. I have never seen the three of them be so nice to people. No offence guys, but you're a bunch of assholes." Moose jumps in as he steals Tina and Gingers seat. He was originally on the other bus but Fae supposes he got bored without his friends.

"None taken, I know I'm a bitch. I am Cheryl Bombshell after all. Fae just makes me want to be a better person." Cheryl smiles as the young blonde who has finally taken her seat with Reggie at her side.

"You guys are embarrassing.." Fae mumbles from behind her hands. She is trying to cover her blush but it would seem Reggie is just not having it, he is quick to pulls her hands down and smile at her.

"Anyways," Fae is quick to change the subject of the conversation. "Are you coming to Pop's with us when we get back, Moose?"

"I don't think so. I have a lot of homework. I also have a test in English tomorrow so I have to catch up on my reading assignments so I don't fail." Moose says as he pulls out a book from his bag.

"oh, what book is it?" Fae asks as she leans over Reggie to see what book Moose has. They aren't in the same English class. Fae is actually in a few advanced classes, it's not really surprising.

"The Odyssey" Moose replies.

"Oh, I have notes that will help you! You wont even have to read the book. I made them for Archie but he decided he was going to read it instead of 'cheating'. It's not cheating, well not in my eyes." Fae is quick to start digging through her bag. She pulls out multiple folders, each folder is labeled with a persons name. It's obvious Fae has been helping a lot of people by making notes for them. After pulling out a good fifteen folders Fae finally finds the one she's looking for and hands it to moose. "There's also note on your upcoming book assignments."

"Damn, princess, are you getting paid for any of this?" Reggie asks as he looks through all the folders to find each one stuffed full.

Moose opens the one handed to him and raises an eyebrow. "This even has Spanish notes and notes for the history test coming up. how did you get all this done so fast, we just found out about those tests."

"No, I am not getting paid for doing it. I like helping people. The Spanish noted to are study for the end of the year exam coming up and well I have a lot of free time.." She answers both boys as she takes the folders back from Reggie and puts them back into her bag.

"Well from now on you are going to get paid for this. You will be making some serious money by exam time." Reggie says as he pulls the folders back out. He then pulls out his phone making a list of all the names. "I'm going to text these dumbasses and tell them your price."

"Wait what? No! Reg don't do that." Fae tries grabbing his phone but he holds it away from her and into the isle of the bus. She growls under her breath and climbs into his lap trying to reach for his phone. By now she is straddling him. She pushes his head to the side with one hand and makes a grab for his phone, again, with the other.

Jason is quick to take Reggies phone so Fae can not. "How much are we going to ask for? I'll text them for you while you deal with that" He laughs as he gestures to a pouting Fae sitting with her legs still straddling Reggie.

"I say $75 per folder, no $75 per class. Fae has a good fifteen folders here. If you don't factor in the fact that each folder has more than one classes worth of work that's $1,125. If we factor in that fact the each folder has at least two classes worth of work its $2,250 just for these." Reggie smirks, "damn babe, you're making bank." Fae grumbles and goes to climb off his lap but he holds her in place. She crosses her arms and looks away from him but doesn't make a move to leave his lap again.

"Damn Reg, I didn't know you were so good at math. You didn't even need a calculator for any of that." Moose says as he looks through the notes in his lap.

"Reggie is actually one of the smartest in our classes. Everyone underestimates him. He's just a little lazy when it comes to academics." Fae says in a mater of fact tone. She hates when people underestimate Reg, or when they think he is stupid. Raggie smiles and kisses Fae head. He loves when she sticks up for him.

"Alright, I got an ok from six of them so far. A few still haven't read the texts yet but I'm sure they'll agree. It's that or fail." Jason says as he reads some texts on Reggies phone.

"You guys suck.. And it will actually come out to $2,925. three folders have four classes worth, nine have two and three have three.." Fae says as she curls up into Reggies chest.

"Damn Fae, you wanna be my sugar momma?" Moose asks in a joking tone.

"You wish, she's all Reggies. Sorry man looks like you're going to have to find yourself another smart girl" Jason is quick to jump in, Fae blushes and hides her face in Reggies chest while he just laughs at his friends.
