AAN Everyone I am so sorry! I have failed you all! and I promised I would update, I'm so ashamed. -dramatially poses- sob-sob- * Opens one eye -.O* I'M SORRY TATIANA! Ok, to make it up to you all, Wink Wink (Psst, Tatiana, that means you) And anyone else who have waited long anough to wait for this update, I have added a special Part at the end of the chapter. Tatiana really, and I mean, REALLY knows how to make a comeback. Lol, she even has the power to use it as a way to change a heartless beast into a pretty princess.

(Paul's point of view)

I've finally convinced Tatiana to go out with me!- Paul

Convinced!? More like demanded!- Embry

No way. She's just now realizing that I have done nothing wrong and that I am one smoking', sexy babe- Paul

Psh. Dream on lover boy. By the end, you were so desperate that you almost started begging!- Embry

You know what! Get out of my head Embry!- Paul

Aw, is Paul getting mad?!- Embry

(Tatiana's pov)

This is gonna be a fun week. Yesterday me and Paul struck the 'agreement' that, well, you already know. Paul is totally going to regret this.

"Tatiana, why are you grinning like that? It's your evil grin." Ellie asked me through the loud music. Right now, I'm driving to school in my beloved jeep. The song Lady Gaga ft. Beyoncé song Telephone was blasting through my speakers.

"Oh, nothing. I was thinking of different ways I could torment Paul for the rest of the week." I cackle.

She just shakes her head and laughs. I drove into the parking lot and easily found a spot next to the school. I continued singing as I opened my door and began gathering my stuff. We get out the car, stilll singing to the song, and I pass Ellie her crutches.

"The way you blowin' up my phone!-

"Hey, gorgeous." Paul interrupted my singing.

"I'll let this slide for now, but the next time you interrupt me while I am singing or even talking for that matter, I will get you back, understand?" My glare was so fierce, and my voice was so menacing and low that Paul actually shrank away from me.

"Ok, understood." He held up his hands defensively.

"Good." I smiled. "Oh, and one more thing." I turn to him, a smirk making it's way onto my face.

"Yeah?" He asks, a stupid grin on his face.

"Carry this." I roughly shove Ellie's bookbag into his awaiting hands.

He sighs but doesn't argue, which makes me grin in return.

I hook arms with Ellie and we move on our way to the front of the school.

"So, it's only three days away till Saturday. huh?" Ell looks at me.

"Yeah." I grumble.

"Who knows, maybe it won't be so bad." She argues. That traitor!

"Or it could take a turn for the worst." I disagree, stubbornly.

"You know, I'm right here!" Paul huffs.

"No, we never noticed." I say sarcastically, rolling my eyes.

"You know you don't have to be so mea-

"Do not say another word." I cut him off, putting a finger to his lips. "You do not know what a true mean person is. That much is obvious, because if anyone is mean here it's you."

"Bu-

"No. Can you please just shut the up!" I growl. He winces as if my words just attacked him, but doesn't argue any further. He just doesn't realize how much I resent him for tripping me down a flight of stairs.

"Just, if you know what's best for you, you would stay on my good side the best you can." I say in a softer tone. He smirked.

"Do I tick you off?" He asks innocently.

"I thought I told you to shut up!" I growl. "Ellie, walk faster." I whisper to her. She grins, we lock elbows, and we run like the wind. Well, she hobbles. We run as far and long as we can and duck by a large group of trees.

"Did-w-we-lose-hi-him?" I manage to ask through my quick breaths.

"Not a chance." I scream at the sudden voice and feel scorching hot hands on my waist before getting lifted up into the air. I was now being cradled against Paul's chest, my own chest heaving from the efforts of breathing. He was looking down at me, smiling.

"Put me down!" I whine, while banging on his chest. He chuckles, and dares to hug me even tighter into his chest. "C'mon, my face is gonna melt off down here." I cross my arms. The bell rings, and he starts to walk toward the school, finally looking away from me.

"Oh no you don't." I grab a handful of hair and tug as hard as I can. "Put me down!"

"Or what?" He asks looking back down at me.

"Or else our 'agreement' ", I make quotations with my fingers, "is off."

He looks horrified at the thought, before composing himself. "Fine." He grumbles and places me back on the ground. I run back to Ellie, who is standing not to far away.

"That stupid ape! I swear, that date on Saturday better be good. If it's not I am staying, as far as I can get, away from that creep!" I point bluntly at Paul. Ellie laughs.

"I bet you would stay away from that dummy, if things don't go well." She smiles.

"I have ears." Paul glumly murmurs under his breath.

I slightly chuckle and go back to grab Paul's hand. "You better walk faster, slow poke, or your gonna be late." I tease while poking his chest when I said slow poke. He smiles a bit at that, and Ellie smirks at us before walking off as fast as she can manage.

"That's right! And don't come back you one legged grasshopper!" I shout to her. She turns around just long enough to stick her tongue out at me.

"Grasshopper?" Paul arches an eyebrow. I just shrug and pull him along.

As soon as we stepped over the threshold of the classroom, the bell rang. Whew, that was a close one. We quickly scurry, yes scurry, to our seats. decided to go on and on about her family life and her pet dogs, which I in fact, would rather be learning then listening to this crap. Yeah, I know, I actually want to do my work for once. Such a shocker! I slowly gaze across the classroom out of boredom and catch Paul looking at me. I show a small smile and wave. He smiles back, widely, if I might add. I continue my steady gaze across the classroom and notice another person staring at me, this time with hate. Can you guess who? Well, if you guessed Lauren Malory then Ding!Ding!Ding! You guessed it! She was throwing daggers at me, not literally, metaphorically speaking. I guess? Oh, that's right! She had a crush on him ever since...I don't know...ever. Ha!, that's the best I can sum it up. I'm guessing her and her "clique", "possy", "boyfriend stealing, pile of sluts." Whatever you want to call them, are going to confront me sometime today. Most likely gym.

"And Puffball is always trying to drink water from the- Ding! Finally!

I head off to Math class for second period.

Haha! Gym! Lauren and her gang of ugly are going in the same class as me. In the locker room I quickly change into a pair off gym shorts, a tank top, and pull my hair into a half ponytail. I also pull on an old pair of converse. The coach blew the whistle and again we were in the gym with everyone else.

"Well, well, well. If it isn't Tatiana." The girl standing behind me sneers my name. Ha! I knew they were going to say something! They're just going to end up getting humiliated in front of everybody.

"Oh, hey Lauren." I act innocent with the fakest warm smile I can muster, as I turn around to face her.

"Don't, hey Lauren, me." She shoots.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know that you didn't like to say hello as a greeting. Will, sup, suffice?" I asked, a real smile forming on my face.

"That's not what I meant." She snapped. By this time more and more people were looking up at us. Most of them quite shocked that I'm talking to Lauren this way. Well, you see, for no apparent reason people started to back off from the group of 'popular', never having the strength to face them and tell them what they thought. But, today I'm going to change that.

"It's not?" I faked confusion.

"No, stupid. You know why I'm here. Your an idiot to think that you actually would have gotten Paul. He's always going to be mine, and I'm the person who rules this school, sister. So, why don't you just back off." Did she seriously just call me stupid and an idiot? She does not know who she is talking to. I can break her, you know what let's do. I mean she was the one who wanted to play this little game with me.

A huge crowd of people were surrounding us now, not that the teachers noticed. Their backs were facing us and they were in their own little world.

"Oh, really. I'm sorry that you think that I'm stupid for coming between you and this strange factuation that you have with Paul. By the way, I'm surprised that you came alone for once. Usually tweedle-dee and tweedle-dum are following your every step, because for some strange reason they just seem completely obsessed with you. Almost as obsessed as you are with Paul. You know what? I don't think anyone could possibly be as closely obsessed with someone as you are with him. Your just ridiculous! Thinking that the person you like is yours forever know matter what makes him happy, as long as he gets stuck with you, even if he has to get kidnapped. Your just a sad sight to look at aren't you. Completely broken and twisted so much inside that there's no going back to the Lauren who once had a heart. Nope, all you have left is a cold, lifeless chunk of ice. You think people respect you here? Well, you're wrong, people comply to your every whim and whine because they don't feel like bothering with a bratty, narcissistic child, such as yourself." I finshed.

Everyone was looking at me completely shocked. I looked back at Lauren to see that her lip was quivering and her face had become all flushed. She wore a frown on her face and she looked like she was about to cry, and right on que she burst into tears. Sobs racking through her entire body. Everyone was just too shocked to say or do anything. They just continued staring, and it wasn't until now, that I noticed that Paul was in the front row looking at me in awe. We all kind of just stood there, frozen. I didn't realize how mean I could get, but when it comes to sticking up for myself I know how.

The coaches blew their whistles and we all went back into the locker rooms.

Lauren ran back, and headed into the bathroom with her changed of clothes. Tears still streaming down her face.

I walk to my locker and uickly change back into my black skinny jeans, black off-the shoulder t-shirt, and my black sandals. I hurriedly go into the bathroom, and I could hear crying coming from the middle one. I slowly open it. "Lauren?" I ask hesitantly.

"I'm sorry." She says in a soft voice. I found her crouched on the floor, wiping her eyes with tissues.

"What?" I ask.

"I'm sorry." She repeats herself in a voice a little stronger than before. "I'm sorry for saying those things. You're right. I am a a brat, and I always put myself before everyone else. I have no right to tell anyone what to do and I'm sorry for that. I'm just so used to getting what I want all the time, so finally when I wanted something, or should I say someone, that I couldn't have I just needed to have that control again. No matter the price, I never think about how things affect other people, I just think about how they affect me."

She just looked so sad and vulnerable, sitting on the floor defeated and pushed away by everyone.

"I forgive you." I whispered.

"You what?" She looked at me a bit shocked.

"I said I forgive you." I smiled and stuck out my hand for her to grab. She took it and smiled, too.

"Thank you." She laughed. "Also, I think you're right. About Rebecca and Alicia." She added.

"I know. I swear, those two seriously have some type of lesbian thing for you. How you even bother with them I don't know."

With that we both walked out the restroom and walked side by side to the locker room.

I have a soft spot for people who are left vulnerable and lost.

The bell rang signalling us that we could finally leave and get home. "Seeya" I waved to her and I headed off to my jeep.

AN Haha! Weren't expecting that, were you!? lol, sorry Tatiana, I just had to add that in there. But, yeah. That was intense, bro. A fanfiction in which the stuck up Lauren Malory has finally learned the error of her ways. She actually has a heart, who knew? Please Review! And I'll try to update more! :D
