This story is for my lovely friend JAMIE!!!!!!

And so we begin……

"Kill me." was her simple demand. She was kidding of course. Emma looked up at Olivia. Olivia gave her friend a sympathetic look and looked back down at her trigonometry homework.

"Em, you shouldn't let her get in your way, maybe you should oh-so-cleverly push her down a flight of stairs or something." Olivia joked. Her face suddenly became serious again. "So tell me, what all happened?"

"Well, it was just him and I studying for that chem test together, ok. He suddenly told me he liked me. I looked at him and asked him why he didn't tell me sooner. He said he didn't think I felt the same way back."
"Oh Em! This is great!"

"He tried to kiss me and I shrunk back. I told him it wasn't right and I didn't want to feel dirty because he's still dating Tracy and all." Emma buried her head in her hands. "What is wrong with me?"

"Tell him if he wants you then he should dump Tracy." Olivia said as if the crisis could be that easily solved. "Or you two could secretly date."
"What would be the pleasure of it then?" A voice asked from behind them. Emma jumped and Olivia screamed. They turned around and peered into the face of Asa Pike.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Olivia hugged him and smiled.

"Heh, I figured Manfred could shove it up his ass." Asa smirked. "Plus I heard he was getting married to a art teacher."

"She's a really pretty one at that." Emma looked up at the sky. "Who would have thought?"

"You're freaking kidding me!" Asa punched the logs the girls were sitting on. Olivia rolled her eyes. She knew it wasn't right for Manfred to have a perfect life and Asa had to run away from his home forever.

"Yeah, who would have thought Tancred would get back with Tracy Morsel and then go tell me that he likes me…" Emma sulked.

"Come on, we should go pay Manfred a visit." Olivia grabbed Asa's arm and pulled him into the academy.

"Livvy, you're gonna pull my arm off!"
"You'll live!"

Asa stiffened when he saw a tall young man with long black hair spot them across the hall. "Are you trying to get me killed?" Asa whispered.

"Asa Pike, is that you?" Asa took on a confused look when Manfred gave a friendly smile. "Wow, you look different."

"What?" Asa was confused.

"Oh, do you think I'm still mad about all of that shit that happened years ago?" Manfred smirked. "It's all water under the bridge."

"Who are you and what the hell did you do to Manfred Bloor?"

"Manny darling, is everything OK?" a melodious seductive voice asked. Asa watched as a woman walked into view. She wore a super tight low cut sweater and tight jeans. She swung a purple cape over her shoulder. Her face was like one of an angels. Her hair was the purist blonde, her eyes were the softest of blues. "Asa?" The woman frowned.

"Who the hell are you and how do you know me?" Asa asked.

"It's me, Dorcas Loom." The woman gave him a weird look.

"DORCAS?" Asa cried. Last, he remembered, Dorcas was overweight and ugly. "How the hell did you get so…..hot?"

"Well, after you left my mum decided to get me on a diet. By the time I turned sixteen I lost all of that weight and I let my hair grow out. That's about it."
"No Lipo, botox, plastic surgery or boob jobs?"

"Uh, no."
He passed out, right then and there.

"Asa! AAAAASSSSSAAAAA?!" Someone said in his ear. Asa sat up and looked around. He was perfectly in his bed. It was all a dream. When he looked over, two blue eyes looked back at him, two ocean blue eyes.
