Jake gets Jelly
Sorry about the spelling error in the tumblr post and probably throughout the chapter. XD
"So... Harley. Who's the girl?" Tom asked.
"What?" I replied.
"You were daydreaming and had this lovesick look on your face."
"You sure it's a girl?," Ethan winked.
"Its definitely a certain guy we know," Jesse added. The trio shared a smirk.
I quickly replied that I was straight, though my red cheeks were telling them otherwise.
"As straight as cooked spaghetti," Yuki giggled. Cleo snorted and then started to choke on her drink. Theo slapped his sister on the back and handed her a tissue to clean up the orange juice, which was beginning to drip off the table.
Jake decided that now was a good time to emerge. He sat down with a thud next to me. Ethan, Tom and Jesse shared knowing looks. Completely oblivious, Jake began shovelling food. "Are you not eating?" he asked me. I shook my head.
"I'm not hungry."
"Come on, you need to eat."
"I said I'm not-" Before I could finish my sentence, Jake put a slice of bacon to my mouth. Reluctantly, I ate it.
I had a desk to myself in maths. Miss Humphries didn't trust Jake to sit next to me without trying to talk incessantly. That didn't exactly stop him though. He would yell at me from the other end of the class room or literally get up and sit himself next to me.
"Jake, back to your seat now!" she shouted at him after trying countless times to get him to move. He sighed and returned to his seat.
Just as he sat down, the door opened. A pretty brunette girl entered. Her hazel eyes wondered around the room. "Ah, Zoe. Nice to meet you. I'm Miss Humphries," she told the new student, "You can sit next to Harley."
Jake glared at her as she went past him. She looked slightly alarmed that he was sharpening a knife in class.
Awkwardly, she sat herself beside me. I smiled at her and she smiled back. "Why does that guy have a knife?" she asked, warily.
"He likes anything metal," I explained, "He has the ability to manipulate it. Whatever you do, don't spray paint something with metallic paint and give it to him. While it might be funny watching him get confused because he can't bend it, its not so funny when he realises its fake an suspends you from the roof for an hour and a half."
"That was oddly specific," she giggled. I laughed at the memory. Unfortunately, I didn't realise how close she was to me and the fact that she was trying to flutter her eyelashes in a flattering way.
At break time, we all gathered in Ethan, Jesse and Tom's room. For some reason, they had requested to share the room. Probably so that they could do some scheming together.
Since I had attended West High:
My room had become a skittles advert. How they got enough skittles to fill a whole entire room, I'll never know.
Jake had accidently kicked me out the bed when Tom decided to put a fake spider on his face.
Theo had nearly wet himself when a balloon popped behind his door.
Kyle had a traumatic experience, which took a week to recover from. He woke up in the middle of a jungle. Jesse claimed he had nothing to do with it until Cleo threated him.
Megan and Lucifer had their own ice bucket challenge, while on a romantic date in wood beside the school.
Blake's room was covered in rainbows, which is the complete opposite of what he once had. His Set it Off, My Chemical Romance and Disturbed posters had all been replaced with unicorns, kittens and puppies. He washed off the rainbows but keep the posters, as well as his previous ones.
Yuki had toothpaste Oreos. The Oreo prank failed - turns out Yuki liked the taste of them and just assumed that they were mint flavoured.
Lucinda walked into clingfilm and Lily started screaming. She came out of her room, her hair a dark purple. She wasn't very impressed.
The only person, who hadn't been pranked was Cleo. I think they were afraid of her.
It was no surprise really when everyone checked the pillows, bean bags and beds before sitting down. Unfortunately, Zoe was new to the whole check-before-you-sit routine. She sat down on Jesse's bed and instantly fell through. Glaring at the boys, I helped her out.
"Seriously, Buttercup?" Lily rolled her eyes.
"Why do you guys insist on calling me that?! I'm not a bloody Powerpuff Girl!" Jesse complained. I couldn't shake the image of Jesse in a green dress and pig-tails from my mind.
"You ok?" I asked Zoe. She nodded, her cheeks flushed slightly. I realised why and immediately dropped her hand.
After the bell rang for lunch and everyone sighed with relief. Indigo settled back on my shoulder, as flying around with Lucinda and Kyle's moths. Together, we followed Jake and Millie out the classroom. Zoe ran after us. Before Jake could say anything, I invited her to come with us to my room. Jake muttered something about getting sandwiches and Wolf, leaving Zoe and me alone in the corridor.
I showed her to my room. She lifted up my duvet and pressed down on the coversheet. Once she was certain that I had a mattress, she sat down.
Sitting beside her, I offered her my not-so-secret sweet stash (Jake had discovered a few days and was practically bouncing off the walls for the rest of the day).
She popped a lemon bon-bon into her delicate mouth. I opened a pack of Hershey's kisses and unwrapped one. I saw Zoe looking at me longingly.
"Do you want one?" I asked, holding the packet out towards her.
"I want a real one," she replied chewing the corner of her lip. She leaned in before I could react. Just before her nose touched mine, her eyes suddenly rolled back and she passed out into my lap.
I hurriedly pushed her off, as Jake glowered. There was a dangerous look in his brown eyes.
"No one is allowed to touch you except me," he growled.
Before I could ask what he meant, he pulled Zoe out my room by her feet, slamming the door behind him.
