Alex's jaw dropped. "Harper, did you just say that I was going to be Juliet tomorrow?" She laughed. "Because, really, that would be completely ridiculous; for me and Stevie to…" her face flushed. "I gotta go." She briskly walked out of the room before Harper could say another word.

Harper stared at the door. "Wow; I've never seen Alex act like that before. It's like she got really…embarrassed. Which is weird. She never gets embarrassed. I mean, she didn't even take the dress off." She paused. "I better go talk to her."

"I got this Finkle," Stevie said, putting an arm out to stop Harper. "If there's one thing a rebel will listen to, it's another rebel."

"Thanks Stevie, but I should really go talk to her. I mean, I am her best friend after all."

"Hey Harper, you know that Ughh has a new CD out?"

Harper paused with one foot on the stair. "Really? I LOVE them! They ROCK!"

Stevie walked over, casually draping an arm over Harper's shoulder. "Yeah. I heard their CDs are going fast, so you'd better—"

"I'd better get down there before they're gone!" Harper was off like a shot, taking the stairs two at a time.

Stevie smiled as she casually walked downstairs. "Works everytime."

Alex jerked her head up as Harper raced through the Waverly Sub Station, practically a blur. "Hey Harper, I—"

"Sorry Alex; Ughh's new CD is selling out fast; I gotta go get one before they're all gone!"

Alex watched in bewilderment as Harper flung the door open, racing outside and down the street. "Oookkaayy…that was weird even for Harper." She shrugged. "Oh well; guess I can talk to her later."

"What's up Russo?"

Alex looked up as Stevie sat in the chair across from her. She looked from Stevie to the door. "Why did Harper just go running out of here to get Ughh's new CD? It's not out for…another…month." She smirked as realization hit her. "Oh, you're good."

Stevie grinned, casually leaning back in the chair. "What can I say? I'm a mastermind." She placed her feet on the table. "So…why'd you leave the room so quickly?"

Alex waved the comment away. "Oh, it's just because Harper is always making me do these stupid things I don't want to do, yet I somehow always get manage to get dragged into them anyway. And then, she doesn't even bother to tell me that I'm…you know."

"Playing Juliet?"

"Yes!"

Stevie smirked as she took her feet off the table. "Would you ever kiss a girl Russo?" She leaned across the table, staring expectantly at Alex.

"Pppbth. N-no. Why would I do that? I mean, that's kis—I mean crazy." She smirked. "I would never do that because there is this cute guy in Biology that I like and I think he's going to ask me out very soon."

"Isn't that the guy Harper likes?"

"Don't judge me." Stevie laughed as Alex got up from the table. "Besides Stevie, it would never work. Because of…well…you know."

Stevie sighed as she watched Alex walk upstairs. "I know you like me Alex; you're just scared." She stood up from the table, pushing the chair in when suddenly, her face brightened. "Maybe I can help with that." Making sure no one was looking; she leaned down, grabbing her wand out of her boot. "I know you're scared and that's just fine, but for one day only, you will be mine." She gave the wand a final twirl, sending a ball of red light up the stairs.

She sighed as she placed the wand back in her boot. "At least you'll be mine for a day."
