{Jack Griffo}

Melanie hated me. Melanie Fox hated me. But that was the whole point, wasn't it? To make her hate me. It was all because of a dare. No, the dare wasn't to kiss her and tell her it was a mistake. The dare was to make her hate me. Who told me to do this? Let's see...

F L A S H B A C K

Tonight was the last night of camp. I hardly believed it. I didn't know whether I should be happy about it or depressed.

But tonight, boys and girls had separate campfires. All guys in all teams had their own campfire and the girls had their own too. And to make sure that no one goes to the girls area, they placed us guys across the river.

It was fun though. All guys. But I was kind of sad too, Mel wasn't there. We were all telling jokes, making up some story of how we met our invisible girlfriends. It turned out that the other guys from Marston weren't that bad either. Until when someone asked what we should do next...

"Dare or Dare!" Someone yelled. We all cheered.

Wilson, one of Marston's soccer players in the varsity, threw in the middle an empty bottle of beer. We all looked at him.

"You know the rules, Wilson. No bringing of Alcoholic drinks?" Some blonde guy beside him said.

"What are you guys, ten? Who ever listens to rules, Ted." He says. We still give him the look. "Fine, I didn't drink. It was empty in my house and I thought well, maybe this could be useful at camp. And it is!"

"Alright." The blonde dude, namely Ted, gave in.

Wilson spinner the bottle and it pointed towards... Hanson, one of the hockey jocks. The back of the bottle was faced at Will. Will as in William Butler.

"Bring it on, nerd." Hanson chuckled.

"Alright, jerk. I dare you to sing 'What Makes You Beautiful' during the Glazing Puck wearing your sister's wedding dress with high heels on." Will smirked.

"What?!" Hanson shrieked. We all laughed as Hanson's face dropped dead shocked. We all knew how important the Glazing Puck was. It was one of Clington High's known event, Hockey coaches were invited and were given freedom to scout some players. Even hockey teams were invited. It was a public Hockey ball, meaning it was formal. And Hanson happen to be the school's team captain and MVP.

"You heard me." Will smirked, receiving hard pats on the back and bro fists.

"You little- Please let me do anything, just not related to the Glazing Puck I beg you." He begged.

"Nope. Rules are rules, nerd." Will mocked.

"Coach is going to kill me." Hanson groaned.

We all laughed as Wilson spinner the bottle again. Random people were getting chosen. It was fun and pretty embarrassing too. I was getting tired and decided that I would leave after the bottle was spun.

And guess who got chosen?

Yup.

And guess who the back of it pointed too?

Nope, not Will. Nor Ted, Wilson or Hanson.

It had to be Tom Gertrude. The guy you would not want to mess with. But since Mel likes me, he considers that as messing with him.

"No." I mumbled.

Tom smirked at me and rubbed his hands against each other. "Oh yes."

"What is it?"

Tom thinks for a while then gave me his evil grin. "I dare you to make Melanie Fox hate you until the end of the school year without finding out this was a dare."

E N D O F F L A S H B A C K

I was screwed.

I won't deny it, I like Mel. So much, I don't know what to do.

But I also remembered what I told Will. I would help him get Mel. But how will I do that when she hates me?

I groaned as I slammed my locker door shut, resulting to me receiving weird looks from the rest of the CPB. I turned around to see Mel, just arriving at her locker. I forgot it was just right across mine. I was tempted to apologize. But I knew two pair of beady eyes were on me. Tom.

I was about to walk away when a hand grabbed my arm. "Jack." A soft voice said. I turned around to see Kiara, in her cheerleading uniform, with a frown on her face.

"What?" I spat. I was not having a good day.

"Jack, I know you are mad at me. But Jack, I was just scared. I did not want anyone to steal you away from me." She explained.

I scoffed, pulling my arm from her grasped. "Steal? Kiara, I liked you. Why would you think anyone would steal me away from you?" And that was a lie. I already started liking Mel. "I did not see you like this. I thought... I thought you were better than that."

"But Jack, I am!" She grabs my arm again.

"Tell that to the judge." I muttered as shrugged her arm off.

I walked out of Spanish class just to be punched. In the jaw. By a nerd. "What the heck?!"

I look up to see Will, fuming. "I trusted you. I thought you wanted to help me. But instead, you decided to kiss her? Fine, I get that. But hurting her? That... I cannot allow."

"Will... Weren't you there in the last night of camp?"

"Yeah, I left as soon as I threw off Hanson's ginormous ego. Now don't give me some crappy excuses. You know what? Hurt her more. At least we both know who she'll end up running into." He threatened me as he walked away, not before punching me in the jaw again.

And couldn't the deny the fact that he was right. He is a nerd. He's always right.
