Hi, You may have or not read this story before, I had deleted it of Fan Fiction, because after a year I decided it wasn't good enough for I had finished the story and didn't like to look at how bad my Grammer was etc.. but I decided to put it back up again, except it's edited and a lot better than the previous version. It has the same story line but better written basically.

Pepper's Point of view

"Tony?" I say desperately,

"Yeah? What now?" he replies. Just him standing there in front of me, makes me so nervous! His black hair makes me bite my lip nervously, epically his beautiful blue eyes that seem to stare into my soul. "Have you done your homework?" I finally find myself asking trying not to giggle at the same time when he gives me this confused look that's to die for. "What?" he replies in this voice that's unusually deeper. "Homework, you know chemistry? Duh!" I reply getting a flight of butterflies throughout the pit of my stomach, surly he will help me; I don't get a word of science class.

"Oh um, I am getting around to it…why don't you go and talk to Gene or something?" He says smirking as he looks me right in the eyes, all I can notice is that his blue eyes are so gorgeous. I can't even come up with a reply. He is so…so, uggh! He is so oblivious that he makes me feel this way and yet he does not even recognize me! Come on! I am getting so sick of it!

I need a plan, maybe I should like go on a pretend date with Gene? Not that he's hot at all but then Tony might notice me and get jealous. But Gene could like no way be better than Tony. This should be interesting! But I am so sure there was something I need to remember…

Gene's point of view

"Bring, Bring!"

Let me guess Pepper again, can't that girl leave me alone? I check the caller id, and sure enough it was her. "Hello? If it's you Pepper I am very busy now, for I am working on my maklu- I mean I am working on my chemistry homework." I speak trying to sound normal as possible.

"Hello? Gene? Is that you? Well I think it's you."

"Yes Pepper, it's me. Now what is it? I am busy doing work." She talks so much! How will I ever manage get off the phone?

"Um…. Its, well, I really like Tony and he just does not seem to notice me, and don't you like Whitney? Well we could have a 'pretend' date and Tony jealous of you and Whitney jealous of me. So what do you think?" She replies. Wow, another one of Pepper's crazy plans. "Seems a little rushed don't you think? So when will we do this 'date'?" I ask her.

Pepper finally replies after at least five minutes silence, "Thank you so much! I know you won't be embarrassed! Though don't tell Tony I like him will you? Please? How about tonight? 7? At the Chinese dragon. Maybe I can set those two up as a date somehow…"

I reply without hesitation "Sounds ok, but who's going to pay?"

Pepper quickly replies "Uh," and ends the call. Great, just great! I knew something crazy like that is going to happen. Though I really have fallen for Whitney but she would never like me.

Bring Bring! I checked the caller id, it said: unknown number.

"Hello?" I say as formally as possible to the person on the other end of the phone trying not to grin as I guess who it could be, but most likely- I know it won't be her.

So, I hope it was better written than my original story. I'll update again soon. No flames please.
