Dear Jean,
I've tried everything I can to make the guy I like notice me. I've dropped little cards and gifts at his locker and I haven't gotten a reply. I don't use my name when sending stuff but I do give him certain things to do to know he feels the same way but nothing. He doesn't even open my gifts and it makes me feel like a loser, an overly obsessive loser. What should I do?
Desperate
Desperate,
Don't send any more cards or waste money on silly, little gifts. Be upfront about the situation, go up to him and give him the rundown of how you feel. If he feels the same then congratulations and if he doesn't then it's his lost. You shouldn't be chasing, call me old fashioned but that's his job. Don't stress because no guy is ever worth it.
Your friend,
Jean
A.J read her English book in silence, they were doing group work but A.J lacked social skills so she remained in her seat and did the assignment by herself. She didn't mind it, even if it meant twice the work, it meant she didn't have to speak anyone she didn't know. And with people like John and Randy in this class it was a wonderful thing.
As she read her phone buzzed in her pocket bringing her out of her thoughts. She frowned and gripped the small white phone before checking the name.
Mick's
Hey, get out of class and meet us in the bathroom in the east wing. We've got news and a plan, a very devious plan (;
A.J frowned, what were they up to, seriously? She raised her hand and asked for permission to use the restroom, her teacher being a very lazy and uninterested person waved his hand to allow her to go. A.J shot up and ran out gripping her phone and taking her backpack with her.
She failed to notice how Randy and John's eyes followed her out.
A.J made it to the east wing without getting caught and inside found the girls. Mickie was talking animatedly while Kaitlyn sat on the floor with Kelly. Maryse sat on the sink with Layla as they watched the brunette ramble on about something.
"What's going on?" she asked
"Well those assholes from the football team," Maryse started off
"They trashed Mickie's car," Kelly frowned, "but no worries I got daddy to get someone to pick it up and get it cleaned."
"Thanks again," Mickie smiled at Kelly
"No worries," she smiled back
"So we formed a very devious plan," Kaitlyn grinned,"and we're putting it into action now!"
"Are you guys taking advantage of Mickie's father being the superintendent of this school?"
"Yes," Maryse answered
"Let's go before the bell rings!" Layla scolded them
After hearing the plan and getting her instructions A.J set out to do her part of the prank. She had gotten Phil, go figure, and she had done her job swiftly and effectively. They knew they'd all be going to their lockers after this class since they all left their wallets in here.
"Alright bell rings in five," Layla grinned
"They'll pay," Kaitlyn laughed, "I can't wait."
"Shouldn't we hide and make it less suspicious?" Kelly asked softly
All the girls smirked and nodded as they walked away from the lockers. It was a matter of patience, once the bell ran everyone filed out and headed to their next class or went to their lockers to get what they needed for lunch period. Kaitlyn had her phone ready to record their reactions as the boys chatted and approached their lockers. It was such a weird thing for them to have lockers all next to each other.
And once they opened their locker something was splashed onto them. They all groaned at the impact and the girls giggled as Kaitlyn smirked while recording them.
"What is this?" John frowned
"They didn't," Randy hissed
"Oh but they did," Mike fumed
"It's messing up my shirt," Cody whined
"How disgusting," Phil commented
"It's tarter sauce," Derrick sniffed before licking his cheek,"tastes like it too."
"I bet I know who did this," John replied wiping his face off with his sweat towel
"Who?" Derrick asked oblivious to the situation
"The girls," Cody hissed, "pay attention."
"So what now?" Phil asked frowning
"We get them back," John smirked
"I know how," Randy grinned
Said girls ran off laughing, Mickie was grinning as they walked towards the lunchroom. Maryse was laughing at Mike's expense while Layla was talking about Cody's diva like behavior. Kaitlyn was replaying the video and Kelly was giggling. A.J knew this would mean they would get payback so things weren't really all that awesome.
"They'll get us back," A.J frowned
"We knew that would mostly likely happened so we planned ahead," Layla gave a Maryse worthy smirk
"Oh did you now?" A.J chuckled, "well what is it?"
"Sabotage," Kaitlyn grinned
"I don't like where this is going," A.J groaned
"Alright, so it's settled," John grinned, "we've got to do this right or they'll get the best of us."
"Yeah we wouldn't want to lose against them again," Cody sighed,"my wardrobe can't handle it."
"Alright ladies," Derrick smirked, "let's begin."
"No, you fool," Randy snapped, "doing that plan in school is basically suicide, so we need a not-so-harmful plan instead."
"How would it be suicide?" Derrick frowned
"Well you're forgetting that Mickie's dad is the superintendent of this school," Phil sighed
"Meaning?"
"One false move and we're out of here," John frowned, "well maybe you guys, not me."
"And why not you?" Mike hissed
"Well for starters Mickie's dad loves me, he's got it in his head that I'll marry his daughter," John smirked
"Like that can happen," Derrick laughed
"Yeah man, Mickie hates you," Mike smirked
"She doesn't hate me," John frowns
"Look, we know you have a crush on the girl but she's not interested," Cody laughed
"Why wouldn't she be interested?" John hissed
"Well for starters, you're really cocky when you're around her," Phil started, "you're bossy and careless."
"You're really bitchy when she ignores you, and domineering around her," Cody continued
"You're impatient, inconsiderate, inconsistent, irresponsible," Randy continued not really interested in the subject but always willing to put John down, "you're also stupid."
"Yeah, you're also real obstinate, overly pompous, rude, untrustworthy, unreliable-"
"Don't forget truculent," Randy drawled
"And boring," Mike added to his list
"Plus you're a man-whore, bro," Derrick laughed
"What?" John fumed, "you guys are totally stupid, only sometimes am I those things."
"Why argue John?" Randy once again drawled as he leaned back, "you don't even know what half of these words mean."
"That's besides the point Randal," John hissed
"John," Randy sighed,"what I have said about my real name."
"Never to use it," John sighed
"You're also Randy's bitch," Derrick added
And it was then that John came to the conclusion that he had, by far, the shittiest friends in all of existence.
A.J had been real paranoid about the whole situation at hand, the way John and Derrick would snigger behind her in her Chem II class, which she was surprised they were even taking considering that they were very lazy individuals.
They would make comments about her size in class and then when A.J actually got the nerve to turn around they'd pretend they weren't just laughing or talking about her and pretended to not even be aware of each others presence. So she concluded that she might just have to argue with Mickie over who would get to kill John first.
"You know, spacing out isn't something you normally do."
She froze, her pen dropping from her mouth as she slowly turned behind her. There stood Phil wearing a very eery smirk. She hated the fact that he was even talking to her, the nerve of the enemy to even approach her in the midst of war.
"I wasn't spacing," A.J bit back, "not that it's any of your business."
Perhaps she should have just taken Maryse's advice for a break at Fro-Yo with them, but no. She had to go and tell them she was going to study for her Calculus test. The world hated her today it seemed, because after being teased by those two jerk jocks, seeing Phil sit across from her was just the cherry on top of a fantastic day,
Then again, her idea of fantastic seemed to be much different from everyone else's.
"Look, I don't know what gave you the impression that you can sit there," A.J suddenly piped up
"Hm," he chuckled, "there's no more room but here."
She looked around and scanned the tables that seemed to be filled, how was that possible? She came in here and half of those seats had been empty. She frowned and turned back to Phil who took out his french textbook. She arched an eyebrow, well that was strange.
"You take french?" she asked
"Yeah," he chuckled, "father's idea of me being able to be useful in the future."
A.J new that once Phil graduated out of college he would be all set to take over the family business, which in this case was a law firm. Ironic, she mused, Phil seems like guy who'd need a lawyer not actually be the lawyer.
"It's not like you're moving your law firm to France though," she laughed slightly
"Not at all," he chuckled, "and hardly even plan on taking over that, sometimes I believe my brother will be better at it."
"Ha, probably," A.J teased, "so tell me something in french."
"Alright," he rolled his eyes
A.J smiled, "but then you gotta' tell me what you're saying and don't cuss me out this is serious!"
Phil grinned and cleared his throat, "Vous êtes la fille la plus belle que j'ai jamais rencontrée."
A.J frowned, "what's that mean?"
"You're the most annoying person ever."
"Hn," she rolled her eyes playfully,"whatever Phillip."
And with that she returned to her studying leaving Phil to his thoughts.
Idiot, he mussed
Surely she wasn't that stupid, after all belle meant beautiful, surely she could of put that together no? And he did want to tell her what it really meant but those words seemed to mushy to be spoken out loud.
You're the most beautiful girl I've ever met
Punk chuckled to himself, how sappy. Nope, he couldn't possibly say that out loud. But then again, he found that at the early age of 5 he'd do anything for this girl. Even if it meant making a completely fool of himself and sometimes he concluded that he would eventually end up doing just that for her.
And only her.
