My class was headed off to the cafeteria, ready for lunch.

"Eli - Chan, look!" My friend Andrea said, shoving a page of her notebook into my hands.

"I finished my picture of Tobi in a French maid outfit!" She added.

"Awesome!" I said, staring at the picture.

Tobi was just the nickname for my friend, actually my crush, James.

"Imagine what he would do if he saw it, though." She said.

"He would probably hit you on the head with his notebook. Like usual."

"Yeah."

We were a few feet away from the lunch room door. I began to think about the annoying fights that happen every day between my cousin and my best friend at my lunch table, which ruined my good mood. My lunch table included my annoyingly cocky cousin, Brandon, my insanely funny friend, Michael, my best friend, Jasmine, the best artist I've ever seen, Andrea, the person I like, James, and me. Today seemed like any other day. That is, until I came in the lunch room. The moment I walked in, James's eyes had followed me. Which was completely unusual. When I sat down at the table, I started getting annoyed.

"Why are you staring at me?" I asked.

"No reason." He said.

I rolled my eyes and looked away from him. I pulled out one of my notebooks I always carry with me. I grabbed a pencil and flipped to a random page in my notebook.

Why is he staring at me, I wrote, handing my notebook and pencil to Andrea.

I don't know... That's not like him... Come to think of it, he hasn't been acting normal all day..., Andrea wrote.

She handed my notebook back to me and I read what she had put, glancing over at James. I rolled my eyes and put my notebook down, avoiding the two war starters trying to read it. Yes, I sat right in between the constant arguments of Jasmine and Brandon.

"Hey Pein, can I see your notebook?" Andrea asked, addressing Michael.

"Sure." He said, handing her his notebook.

She wrote something in it and handed it back to him. Normally, she would have written something like 'Eli - Chan loves Tobi - Kun' because she already had told him anyway. But today she wrote 'Eli - Chan loves Itachi. I looked at her.

"What. The. Hell." I said, giving her a death glare.

"You love Itachi?" Michael asked.

"Maybe..."

"She likes Sasuke, too." Andrea said.

Michael started looking at me with the same dreamy look in his eyes as James.

"You're weird! I'm Itachi! That means you like me!" Brandon said.

"Oh p - lease... You're nothing like Itachi. I'm more like Itachi than you! You're Karin or something..." I said.

"Bitch! What did you just say?"

"You're Karin. Not Itachi."

"Okay that's it! Thousand Years of Death!"

He tried doing Thousand Years of Death on me.

"Dude, I'm your freaking cousin!" I said.

"Stop trying to stick your hand up your cousin's ass." Andrea said.

I pushed him away and looked at the two boys staring at me.

"Okay, you guys are seriously freaking me out." I said.

"You guys haven't been acting like yourselves all day..." Andrea said.

"Got that right."

Then, the two just started death glaring each other. Which was strange, considering those two are like best friends. I sighed.

"Weirdos..." I said as our table was told to leave the cafeteria.
