The news that Clare and Calum will have a Drifting competition after school travelled faster than a zombie outbreak.

During lunch, everyone was talking about it nonstop. Some were shocked because THE Clare Cartwright challenged Calum Hood, one of the great Drifters of the school.

I've heard that Calum never lose to any drifting competition before and that made me and the others worried.

Liam wasn't very happy about it. He was angry. He even excused Clare and himself from our lunch table to talk to her privately.

Once they were gone, Niall suddenly appeared with Lucas, Michael, and Harry. They placed their food on the table where there was an empty seat and then they sat down. Since Clare was sitting right next to me a while ago and now she's gone, Harry sat beside me.

The students in the cafeteria were all looking at our table because it was very unusual that the famous Drifters of the Alpha frat were eating and hanging out with people like us.

"Hey," Harry said and smiled.

"Hey" I smiled sheepishly.

"So" Niall said, and we all looked at him. He was sitting across from me, the seat where Liam was seated a while ago.

"Is it true that Clare and Calum will have a competition after school?!" His question was directed at me since he was looking at me with wide eyes and a worried expression etched on his face.

Everyone turned to look at me, waiting for my response.

I bit my lower lip and nodded.

"What the fuck?!" Niall exclaimed.

"Shit" I heard Red mumbled, shaking head slightly.

"She's getting herself into trouble!" Louis sighed.

"Oh my god this is bad!" Iris looked like she was hyperventilating and she also looked pale.

"We need to do something!" Michael suggested.

"But they had a deal, remember?!"

Everyone looked at me, their eyes wide. There was a moment of silence before everyone except Harry exclaimed "WHAT?!"

"What deal?" Ashton asked as he frowned.

I took a deep breath, my hands started to shake as I try to say what the deal was. I hid my hands under the table so that no one will notice that it was trembling.

"If C-Clare wins, they will leave us alone. But if Calum w-wins. . .  Umm" I was completely aware that I was stuttering.

"Alice?" Niall said gently.

I looked up at him and took a deep breath, "Clare will be his fuck buddy for the rest of the school year."

Everyone's eyes widened in shock. Some muttered 'What the fuck?!' or 'Holy shit' under their breaths. I looked at them and they all lookef shocked, worried, and nervous at the same time.
