Poke. Poke. What the hell keeps touching my cheek. Poke. Poke. Ugh. I groan out loud and turn my head to the other side. Poke. Poke. My other cheek now too! Stop!

"It's time to wake up sleepy head," Lexi scream-whispers. I don't think she realizes how badly I need my sleep right now. "We need to get ready for school."

In my sleepy morning voice I say, "what time is it?"

I feel her move on the bed to check the clock "5:30!" What? That's way to early!

"I dig my head back into the pillow, "Go away and wake me up at a more reasonable time."

"No! If you want me to make you look drop dead gorgeous for Jayden you better get your fine ass up!" She yells. Well she does make a good point...

"Fine Lexi, you win. Again..." I slowly get myself up and out of bed and then meet Lexi in the bath room.

"Okay I have all your clothes set up on the counter, get changed and call me when you're done!" She skips out of the room and shuts the door. I quickly change and look at what I'm wearing, it's a hot pink sleeveless button up shirt that ties at the bottom and exposes some of my tummy with white short shorts and a brown belt. Then I call her back into the room. She walks in and she's wearing her clothes for the day, a light purple dress that is tight at the top then slowly flows into a more lose material at the bottom. "Sofie your outfit is perfect for making him jealous" she smiles deviously. "Now time for your hair and makeup!"

"Approximately how long is it going to take for you to do my hair and makeup..." I ask unhappily, knowing it will be a long time considering how early she woke me up.

"Just about an hour that's all!" She says happy with herself, "but you better pay attention because this is the only time I'm doing it for you. I will not sacrifice my hair and make up for you ever again!" Then I notice her hair and makeup aren't done. Wow I didn't even notice. She doesn't even need to do her hair or make up, she is still gorgeous.

"Fine." I stick my tongue out at her and then allow her to work her magic on me.

She teaches me every little step and makes sure I memorize everything perfectly. When she finishes I observe her work. Damn, Lexi sure knows what she is doing. My hair is perfectly curled and my red highlights are accentuated from the look of the curls. My eyeshadow is dark brown on the outer side of the eyes and slowly fades lighter as it moves in. I look really... Hot. Damn never thought I would see the day.

"So, do you like it?" She asks with hope in her eyes.

"Like it? I love it! Lexi your amazing!" I squeal then stand up and hug her.

After we finish up, we run down stairs and grab our breakfast bars and head to my car. We drive to the school and I park in my normal spot in the back of the parking lot.

"Okay Sophie you ready to go in? You do realize that all the boys are going to be looking at you, you're okay with that right?" She asks me with a worried expression.

"Oh I'm ready alright. I've gone eighteen years without being noticed, so I think I'm ready." I grin at her.

We get out of my car and make our way into the school. We chat at Lexi's locker for a while, every so often when a group of boys walk by they stare at us and I feel a sense of accomplishment. We wait until the warning bell rings before we go our separate ways to our first classes.

"Bye Sofie, and good luck! I want full details on what happens." She says walking away.

"Will do! See you later Lexi and thanks again!" We wave and I walk to physics.

I make it to the door and take a deep breath. I can sense that Jayden is already in the room, so I let out a breath, walk into the class and head straight for my seat. I sit down and say, "Morning Vincey!" In a cheery voice.

He turns and smiles at me, "Morning Soph!" He then notices what I'm wearing and begins to check me out, I shudder in disgust because I definitely don't like Vince in that way, but I don't say anything because I know Jayden is watching and I don't want to ruin Lexi's plan. "So...I was wondering if-"

Before I could hear what Vince had to say Mr. Simmons walks into the room and speaks, "Alright everyone up, we are doing a lab today and I'm making new tables just for the lab, everyone to the front of the room." Everyone grabs their things and stands at the wall in the front of the classroom. Vince comes up and stands next to me so closely that our arms are touching completely, but I allow it because of the plan. Mr. Simmons walks over and says, "Okay count out from the number 1 to the number 6 then begin at 1 again, that will be your lab group for this assignment." The first kid starts, when it gets to me I am number 6, so I walk off to my new table and sit down.

"Hey." A deep voice sounds coming from my left side. My body shivers in joy, I turn and look up at Jayden as he sits down next to me. "Looks like we are in the same group."

I roll my eyes at him and grab my note book from my bag. "Seems that way doesn't it."

He releases a low growl from his chest, "Don't roll your eyes at me."

I look him dead in the eye and put on a fake sympathetic face and say in a whisper baby voice, "Aw Alpha's boy isn't used to being disobeyed is he," I lean over slowly and whisper lightly in his ear, "looks like that's about to change." I lean back and smirk after realizing how tense he got from our close proximity.

"Sofia, I highly recommend you don't do that ever again." He says in a pained voice, like he is holding himself back. "It could end badly for both of us." He lets out a deep breath and runs his hand through his hair again. I bite my lip as I watch, damn he is one sexy piece of- stop it Sofie! Focus girl.

Without saying anything back to him I turn. And listen to Mr. Simmons talk about the lab. When he is done he hands out papers that tell you what you need for materials. The nerdy boy at our table of four, Bobby, I believe it is, asks, "If... If it's okay can... Can I get the rulers?"

I smile politely at him and say, "Of course you can and Abby could you get the small metal balls?" She nods and they both leave to get their materials, "so that leaves us to get the stand and the track. Since the track is in the top shelf right here I will just get that, why don't you get the stand." I say then look from the sheet and at Jayden. He is giving me a serious face but doesn't move. I let out a frustrated breath and say, "Please?" He smirks then leaves to get the stand.

I put the paper down and reach up to grab the track. Ugh why can't I reach it! Screw being short this is ridiculous!

Suddenly someone comes up from behind me, they are careful not to touch me. They reach over me and grab the track, before they finish grabbing it I turn around to see who it is. Jayden looks down at me then hands me the track that I was supposed to get. I take the track from him then frown. "I could have gotten it myself you know."

"From where I was standing it looked like you were having a hard time." He smirks. I stick my tongue out at him then push him away from me, ignoring the sparks that spread through my hand.

"Whatever I had it under control. Let's just set this lab up and get it over with." I sigh, the rest of our group returns in the next few seconds and we put together the contraption. We place the ball at the top of the track and time how long it takes until it reaches the bottom. We have to do this over 20 times at different heights. We are half way through when Mr. Simmons interrupts everyone.

"Okay class, that's good for today. The bell is going to ring soon so put your things to the side and we will finish it up tomorrow." I put down my pencil and help our group move all our things to the side. Just then the bell rings and I grab my bag from the floor and turn around quickly, almost slamming into Jayden.

"Sorry!" I say quickly. As he grabs his things and looks at me.

"It's fine Sofia." He says, I bite my lip from being nervous and wait for him to leave so I can go too. "Stop doing that." He says in a harsh tone.

I frown at him, "Stop doing what?" I ask angrily. I wasn't even doing anything!

He frowns and says, "Nevermind." Then completely turns his back to me and walks away. The nerve of that boy! I grunt and make my way out of the classroom.

Lexi is there waiting for me with an expecting look on her face. I look at her and say, "Well I was somewhat successful today..." I shrug my shoulders and begin our walk to class.

"What do you mean by 'Somewhat successful'?"she asks concerned.

I tell her the whole story as we walk down the hall an into English class. She doesn't interrupt the whole time and listens to everything. "Hmm, well he definitely cares, I just don't know why he hasn't acted on his feeling yet..." She ponders her thoughts for a while and lets out a sigh. "I guess we are going to have to step your game up Soph. And I know exactly how, you heard about the party Wednesday night right?" She smiles at me, I nod at her. "Perfect here's the plan-" she proceeds to tell me her whole plan, Lexi is a genius.
