     Lucy POV:
My cherry red heels clicked on the sidewalk as I made my way to school, the icy wind blew my ebony locks behind me. "Hey Lucy." A car pulled up beside me, I looked into the window to see none other than Charlie Brown. I sighed, continuing to walk, but making my pace faster. "Lucy!" He drove his car slowly alongside me on the road. "What do you want you pig!?" I huffed, facing him. He sighed, running his hand through his sandy brown hair that he use to not have. "I just wanna apologize. I acted irrationally and I will never do it again.." He seemed sincere, but the cold air around me made me wanna slap him for sitting in a warm car. "O-ok..apology accepted.." I shivered, quickly trying to make my way to the school. "Um, Lucy..?" He drove up beside me again. "W-what Charlie..?" He chuckled, "want a ride?" I hesitated for a moment, "f-fine! You damn blockhead, don't try anything!" I quickly hopped into the car, he then pulled off. "So we're good right?" He finally broke the silence as we pulled into the bustling school parking lot. "Um..yea whatever blockhead." I sighed, slinging my bag over my shoulder and stepping out into the cold air once again  "Here Luce." Before I could turn around I felt a heavy weight on my shoulder, it was warm. "Charlie what the hell..?" I felt his leather jacket atop my small figure. "It's fine. Let's just get inside quickly." He led me inside, almost immediately yanking his jacket off of me. "...thanks?" I arched a brow, watching him make his way down the hall. "Odd.." I sighed, dusting myself off and opening my locker.

    Schroeder POV:
"So anyways I-" my friend had cut me off, punching my shoulder and pointing toward the school entrance. "Dude look look!" The whole group chucked and made kissy faces at the sight of...LUCY!? and fucking Charlie. It seemed she was wearing his jacket, I was pissed off to say the least. I watched him grab the jacket and walk past us, not a care in the world, I wanted to smash his teeth in. What's wrong with me? I'm never like this. I looked back to Luce, her ebony locks laced with snow as she loaded her belongings in the small locker. I made my way to her, making sure she saw me as soon as she shut the locker. "Oh! Schroeder you scared-" I grabbed her wrist, smashing our lips together. "Mmm..~" I felt her practically melt in my arms, what could that damn Charlie Brown do that I couldn't? Sure, he was the quarterback, but he doesn't deserve this angel. "S-schroeder?" She pulled back, resting her hands on my chest. "Yea Luce..?" I rested my forehead on hers, seeming to forget all the stares in our direction. "We should get to class.." she whispered shyly as the bell rang, pulling me back to reality. "Oh. Y-yea right. Sorry." I pulled myself from her, watching as she recoiled sadly. "It's ok..wanna walk-" I quickly started speed walking away, thinking of the worst possible scenarios in my head. "Did she hate the kiss? Does she really like Charlie? Should I just leave her alone!?" Fuck!

     Lucy POV:
"together..?" I sighed, watching him walk off after just kissing me was so confusing. He kissed me voluntarily so many times now, even called me beautiful and walked me home! What are his feeling exactly? Am I just a damn game to him?? I made my way to class, wanting this day to be over already.

"Hey Lucy! Adjust that light fixture please?" Violet shouted. I nodded, making my way across stage in my tight cocktail dress costume. "Damn.." I mumbled to myself, struggling to reach the tall point. "Maybe growing a few inches would help there Luce." I heard a chuckle behind me as two arms snaked around me, lifting me up just high enough to reach. "Charlie Brown!" I smacked at his arms, being revolted at his touch. "Come on Luce, fix it or I'll drop you!" He demanded. "Fine!" I quickly fixed and adjusted the light, Charlie lowering me down quickly after. "There, now was that so-" I slapped him across the face. "Ow! Why!?" He cradled his cheek, glaring at me. "You touched me without permission." I simply stated, making my back backstage once again. "Wait! Luce I'm sorry. I was trying to help you. Because...I need your help." He scratched the back of his neck awkwardly, avoiding my gaze. "What do you need blockhead?" I crossed my arms, preparing myself for his foolishness. "Um well...there is this girl." I cut him off, "no. I will not help you get with that new girl Frieda." I turned my back to him, grabbing my personal clothes and heading to change. "Please, Luce." He grabbed my wrist, whipping me around toward him. "It would mean a lot to me.. " for a second, he looked really genuine, I felt bad to say the least, especially since Heather left him. I sighed, yanking my wrist from him. "Fine Charlie, I'll help. But only once." He gasped, smiling and clapping like an idiot. "Thank you Luce! Thank you!" He surprised me, he came at me, wrapping his arms around my waist and lifting me up. "Ugh! Charlie brown!" I struggled beneath his tight grip as he continued to innocently hug me. Then, pop. "What the...?" Charlie slowly let me down, revealing that the small cocktail dress had popped open, revealing my entire front area. "Ahhh!!!!" I screamed, attempting to cover myself. "Oh my god!" Charlie acted fast and stupid, pulling his shirt off and throwing it at me, I quickly covered myself as someone burst into the room. "Shit!" Without thinking Charlie threw himself in front of me, attempting to shield me away from prying eyes. "What..the..fuck!" Schroeder.

     Schroeder POV:
"Ahhhh!!!" I head a familiar scream, Lucy! I quickly ran towards it, pushing past everyone rehearsing on stage and bursting through through backstage double doors. There was an unforeseen sight, something that made me wanna go ballistic. Charlie fucking Brown standing in front of Lucy, with her front area exposed. "What..the..fuck!" I shouted, stomping towards them. "Schroeder, man it's not-" I hauled back and punched his jaw, sending him to the floor. I huffed, clenching my now sore knuckles. "Luce.." I looked to her, a look of pure shock and fear as she stared at that idiot on the floor. "Schroeder!" She screamed, pushing my chest, making me stumble back. "Why would you do that!?" She kept yelling at me as she tended to Charlie on the floor, he groaned as he was in evident pain. "Lucy he was-" she slapped me, hard enough to knock someone cold. "He wasn't doing anything you idiot! He was covering me!" She quickly helped him up, supporting him to a nearby stage prop chair. "I just-" she sighed, slipping off the small dress completely as she changed right in front of us. "I don't understand you Schroeder, you kiss me and protect me, you call me beautiful and all these other things!" She threw the small torn dress down as she finished clothing herself. "So why do you always walk away and never ask me me out already!?" Her plea shocked me, causing my heart to Crack and ache. "Lucy I-" she began helping Charlie to his feet again. "Just save it Schroeder.." she steadily walked Charlie out, I heard their footsteps fade behind the double doors. How could I be so careless and stupid? Lucy, I will make you mine. Properly.
