Two Weeks Later... 

I sighed as I got out of bed then went to my closet to get changed. I got dressed in a white t-shirt that I tucked into my blue denim shorts. I put my in a high messy bun, brushed my teeth, then went to school with Jack. 

Lunch... 

I remembered almost right away that I had promised Shayna that I'd talk to Coltin for her. 

So after finishing at my locker like usual, I started walking around, trying to find Coltin. Luckily I knew where his locker was so I went there first. And luckily, right when I turned the corner, I saw him there. I walked up to him.

"Hey Coltin." I said with a smile. He turned to me. "Oh hey. I was just going to the caf' after I finished here." He told me, grabbing a couple more things from his locker before shutting it and fully turning to me. 

"I know, but I wanted to talk to you about something alone." I told him as we began walking out of the locker area together. We pretty much just began walking around the atrium. "Oh really? What about?" He asked me. 

"Do you have feelings for Shayna?" I asked him. "Wow, a little impulsive, don't you think?" He chuckled. "Don't avoid the question." I also chuckled. "Alright, fine. I admit, I do. How could I not?" He confessed. I smiled big hearing what he said. "I'm not even surprised.. You make it so obvious." I said, still smiling. "I do?! God dammit.." He sighed. 

"You should definitely tell her though." I told him. "Yeah, right.." He said sarcastically, chuckling a bit. "Why not?" I frowned a little. "Have you seen her? She could probably have any guy she wants." He told me. 

Dammit.. I really just wanted to tell him that Shayna likes him back but I promised her that I wouldn't tell him no matter what. But I didn't say anything about insinuating it...

"She probably likes you back, you know..." I smirked. "How would you know?" He asked me. "'Cause on Friday, the entire time, all I could pay attention to way the way you guys looked at each other. Both of you make it pretty obvious. Obviously you wouldn't be able to see it though because you're you." I explained. He stayed silent for a couple seconds.

"You really think she likes me back..?" He asked me, sounding nervous. "Definitely." I smiled. "Alright, fine.. I'll tell her then. But if I embarrass myself, it's on you." He told me the last part firmly. "Deal." I chuckled. 

So we went to the cafeteria and sat with Shayna, Jack and Jeremy. I decided not to even tell Shayna about what Coltin told me because now that he was going to confess to her himself, I didn't see the point in ruining the surprise. 

Ema's P.O.V... 

I had the plan perfectly laid out in my head on my sabotage. Now all I needed was the one guy who was going to destroy everything, on board with this plan... Lucas. 

Considering Lucas's relationship and past with Jack, I had really high hopes that he'd agree to my plan. Lucas and Jack have hated each other since back in grade 9. They're on the rugby team together but they literally can't stand even looking at each other. They're both pretty equally as popular so I was quite surprised that they weren't friends. 

There was no real reason as to why they hated each other.. or at least not that I knew of. I guess I could ask him when I ask him if he'd help me with my plan. 

But first, I had to find him.

I went to the cafeteria at lunch and began searching around. I immediately found him sitting with his friend group which was like four guys and two girls. 

I walked over to them and they all immediately looked at me. Without any hesitation, I grabbed Lucas's hand and pulled him up from his seat. Everyone, including him looked at me very confused but I didn't care. I started pulling him away from the table. 

"Ema, what the fuck are you doing?" He asked me. But he let me continue to pull him somewhere. I pulled him outside of the cafeteria and to the atrium where the couches were. I pushed him to sit down then sat on the couch beside him. 

"What's your problem?" Lucas asked me, sounding kind of annoyed. "I need your help." I told him, turning to him. "Well this isn't the way to get it." He got up to walk away but I quickly grabbed his wrist and pulled him back down. "Dude, stop!" He raised his voice, clearly sounding annoyed. 

"It's about Jackson." I told him quickly. He immediately looked at me. "Why the hell would I wanna do anything that's related to him?" He furrowed his eyebrows. "I want to break up him and his girlfriend, that he very much loves." I told him, crossing my arms. He almost immediately looked intrigued.

"Why do you wanna do that?" He asked me. "Because she's the one who made me lose Jack. And I know you hate Jack so you'd probably love to 'break his heart'." I smirked a little bit. "Well I do despise the guy.. And it would be fun to see him broken..." He said, starting to think about it. 

"So you'll help?" I asked him, a bit excitedly. "What do I have to do?" He asked me, turning to me. 

So I explained to him the entire plan. 

"So, as you can tell, you have to stay committed to this plan since it's pretty long." I told him after explaining everything. "That seems like way too much work just to see Jack broken for like a week.. I'm out, sorry Em." He told me before beginning to stand up. 

"I'll give you $200." I said quickly. He immediately stopped and looked at me. "Seriously? Wow, you're desperate.." He scoffed. "Will you do it or not?" I rolled my eyes. "Alright. Fine, I guess.." He sighed. 

I smiled as I grabbed my wallet from my pocket. I grabbed two fifty bills and one hundred one then handed them to him. He grabbed them, putting them in his pockets. 

"You better be a good actor and make it believable." I told him. "Relax, I'm a great actor." He told me. "Oh yeah and here's a picture of the girl. Her name is Veronica." I told him, showing him a picture of Roni from her Instagram. He grabbed my phone to look closer. "Oh, I have Travel and Tourism with her." He told me, handing my phone back to me. "Even better, then you can start there." I smirked.

"Anyway, while I have you here.. Why do you and Jack even hate each other so much?" I asked him. He sighed. "To make it simple, we both really liked the same girl.. you." He told me. My eyes widened. They both liked me. Honestly, I wasn't surprised though. "You're over me now, right?" I asked him. "No shit.." he said quickly. I rolled my eyes.
