You know about those stupid STAR tests you have to take, like, every year until you graduate high school? Well, I got REALLY bored every time I finished because I always finish really early, so I decided to write this….

And I was listening to this song when I first started writing it, so the title belongs to Blondie(X

Call Me

Chapter 1

"Cheers to another convicted perv!" Alex raised her glass full of alcohol.

"Cheers!" Olivia, Elliot, Munch, and Fin also raised their glasses.

Everyone smiled. This was sort of like a tradition – every time they got someone convicted, they would go out to Miller's (they're favorite bar) and would have a few drinks, but usually not enough to make them drunk, then go home.

"Oh my God! Alex, that HOT guy is TOTALLY checking you out!" Olivia looked at the tall, dark-haired guy sitting a few seats down from Alex.

Alex casually looked over her shoulder. "He is!"

"He's coming over here!" They giggled.

Elliot, Munch, and Elliot looked over at them.

"Look at how immature they're being." Munch looked slightly disgusted.

"Munch, look, that SEXY blonde chick is TOTALLY checking you out!" Elliot made fun of Olivia.

"Oh my God! She TOTALLY is!" Fin didn't succeed at sounding serious.

The guys started laughing. The girls looked over at them, then back at each other, and rolled their eyes.

"Hey, wanna dance?" The tall, dark-haired guy was now right next to Alex.

"Uh, sure." Olivia gave her an I told you so smile, and Alex smiled back.

Olivia watched them walk over to the dance floor, and continued smiling.

"What's up?" She moved her chair closer to the guys.

"That's a little close to Elliot, don't you think Liv?" Fin joked.

"Nope. This is." She scooted so close to Elliot she was practically on his lap.

"Awww, so cute!" Munch – who was next to Elliot – teased.

"How's this for cute?" Elliot punched Munch hard on his shoulder.

"Ouch! Why the hell did you do that?" Munch asked, grabbing his shoulder.

"Cause." Elliot laughed.

"You know I was kidding!" Munch was still angry.

"Don't they look cute together?" Olivia changed the subject, looking at Alex and the tall, dark-haired man dancing.

Fin got up from his seat and put Elliot's right arm across Olivia's shoulders, and both of them started blushing. "Not as cute as you and Elliot."

"You know what, Fin?" Elliot removed his arm from Olivia's shoulders and stood up from his seat.

"Elliot." Olivia stood up, grabbed Elliot by his right arm, and pulled him until they were by the bathrooms before letting go of his arm.

"I'm gonna kill Fin!" Elliot started to walk away, but Olivia stood in front of him, and put her hands on his shoulders to stop him from going anywhere. "Lemme go!"

She stared into his deep blue eyes. "Elliot, chill. They were just screwing around. I was embarrassed, too, but you don't need to get all mad about it."

"I wasn't embarrassed." Elliot looked away because he couldn't look her in the eye and lie.

"Elliot, tell me that while look me in the eyes." She let go of him.

"I – I can't."

"That's what I thought. Why can't you just admit that?"

"I could've."

"Why didn't you, then?"

"I don't know." He was looking at his feet.

"I think it's because you're a man." She smiled.

"Do you want to go back now?" He looked at her and smiled before he looked back at Munch and Fin.

"Only if you promise not to get in anymore fights."

"Okay. I promise."

"Okay." She took two steps before Elliot stopped her.

"Wanna screw with them?"

"Sure." She looked at him questioningly and tilted her head.

"Okay. Follow my lead."

Olivia nodded, unsure where this was headed.

He grabbed her hand. "Ready?"

She blushed.

"Hey guys!" Elliot said cheerfully to Munch and Fin.

"What's up?" Munch asked and he and Fin exchanged looks.

"Nothin." Elliot smiled. He and Olivia sat down, and he put his right arm around her, causing her face to become even redder. "Just hanging out, with you guys…. And Liv." He turned towards her and moved the hair on the right side of her face behind her ear with his left hand.

"Anythin you guys wanna tell us?" Fin asked.

"This is Jacob." Alex walked over to them with the guy she was dancing with. "Uh, what did I miss?" She looked over to Olivia and Elliot.

"That's a good question, Alex," Munch said. "What did we miss?"

"What do you mean?" Elliot was still playing with Olivia's hair.

"You're actin all weird and Liv is all quiet for once," Fin answered, and everyone looked at Olivia.

"I'm not actin weird. It's just that Liv and I admitted our true feelings for each other."

"WHAT?" Alex's, Munch's, and Fin's jaws dropped.
