They reached the office and knocked on the door.
The principal greeted them all with a smile and told them to come in. As soon as they were in, Will sat in the principal's chair. Tessa and Nick gaped at him, but the principal, Linette, took it as if she was used to it.
"Will, would you please get out of the principal's chair?" Linette said with a sigh.
"Sure thing, mother." Will grinned at Tessa and Nick and slid off the chair to give his 'mother' a seat.
"Thank you, now your reason for coming here?"
"Miss, we have a request." Tessa said, since Nick was too busy being shocked.
"Yes, Theresa dear?"
"We would like your permission to open a club." Tessa said in a nervous tone and Will, who was now standing beside Nick, smirked at her.
Tessa, oblivious to this went on, "Um, a Host Club."
Linette looked quiet pleased with the idea, for she smiled and her eyes shone.
"Why that's a wonderful idea!" She exclaimed, "So, who do you plan putting in it?"
"Well since it was William's..." Tessa began, but Will cut her off.
"Will." he said.
"Since it was Will's idea, he would be in it. Nick would like to be in it. So far that's it but we can ask some of our other friends." Tessa said.
"Will would be joining too?" She raised her eyebrows.
"Why, can't I? It was my idea after all." Will said.
"Well I guess. You all have my permission, but by the end of the week you must have at least seven members who are willing to join. You two boys included in the seven. If not, then there won't be a Host Club. And one more thing, since you suggested this idea to me during a lesson, this is your assignment for that lesson. Good luck now." Linette sounded happy as she said this.
Will, Nick and Tessa turned to leave the office.
When they were back in Drama, they discussed this assignment.
"We only have to get five more boys since there are already two. We can ask Chris and Jem." Tessa suggested.
"They'll agree for sure." Nick said.
"I've never thought Jem to be this kind of a person, although he is polite to everyone." Will remarked.
"How do you know Jem?" Tessa asked.
Will mocked as if taken aback, "He's been my friend since I came to London, which is about five years exactly."
"What?!" Tessa felt like something had been dropped onto her.
Will smirked at her reaction and looked at the shocked Nick.
"If they do agree, then we still have three more empty places." Will pointed out.
Since Tessa had recovered from yet another shock, she said, "How about the Lightwood twins on class B?"
"Are they suitable for this, do you think they would agree?" Will asked.
"You're new so you don't know them, but let me tell you, they do these things anywhere and everywhere anyway," Tessa said, "So I bet you they'll agree for sure."
"True that." Nick said.
"All right then, we need one more." Will pointed out.
All three began to think hard, Tessa and Nick thinking harder than Will, since he barely knew anyone from this school. Or did he?
"How about that guy? What was his name again? Yes, Thomas. How about him." Will asked.
"You know people from this school?" Tessa asked, surprised.
"Those group of girls in our class never stop talking. Scratch that, that's every girl in our class. They just never stop talking." Will said with a shrug.
"I feel offended by that." Tessa said angrily.
"Scratch what I just said. Every girl in our class except for our dear Tess here."
Tess? Tessa felt momentary a jolt of surprise; First of all because nobody had ever called her that before. Sure her brother called her Tessie, but that was all. Second of all, she kind of liked it.
"Thank you, I feel less offended."
"But still offended?"
"Actually, no, not offended at all."
"Thomas?" Nick interrupted.
"Oh yeah, Nick, do you think he'll agree? I mean we've never even talked to him before, and he's turned down every confession he's ever got. Well, as far as I know anyways." Tessa said.
"We can challenge him, he seems like a competitive sort." Will suggested.
"Or we can just try asking him." Nick said.
Tessa and Will looked at him, and he shrugged.
"So if that guy agrees too then there are seven. Will, me, Jem, Chris, Gabriel Lightwood, Gideon Lightwood and Thomas. Perfect now we just have to ask the other five."
"Perfect." Tessa muttered.
I know this was a short and bad chapter but I wanted to release one since I hadn't in a while. Hope you enjoyed it.
