I appreciate any review, even if you don't have a account, so if your reading this I would love to hear your opinion.
"You, Alex Russo, are actually going to help someone?" Harper said, as she stood next to the lockers at their school.
"You say it like it's a bad thing." Alex said, rifling through her messy locker.
"Well, I'm not so sure it is a good thing, especially since out of all the people you could choose to help, you pick Justin Moriarty. I thought you couldn't stand him."
"He's okay, I guess, and I can be nice Harper."
"Really Alex, that's your best argument?"
Facing Harper, Alex sighed, "Fine, I'll tell you the truth. Last week I got in trouble with Mr. Laritate, and since I already have detention, he's forcing me to do something "good" for the school. So, I figured I'd help Justin with his stupid election, because you and I both know he needs it."
Harper smiled, "Well, surprisingly enough, that is nice of you. I'm proud, maybe you are starting to grow up."
"Oh, don't get me wrong, I still plan to be sneaky and underhanded, and if he wins the election, he'll owe me."
"What do you mean?"
"Like I said before Harper, we both know he can't win alone, so if I help him and he wins, he'll owe me a favor. Besides, the other night he brought up a good point, he said that if he becomes student body president he will hold some sort of power at the school. So I was thinking, when he wins, I could convince him to do something entertaining for the school, because let's face it, your lunchtime Shakespearean plays aren't cutting it." Alex explained, shaking her head.
"Hey! They aren't that bad!" Harper yelled.
"Really? You're the only one in the plays, you play all the parts. I hate to break it to you, but it's kind of sad."
"Good point." Harper said, feeling slightly defeated.

As lunchtime approached, Justin went around the school looking for Alex. Spotting her, Justin handed her a handful of papers, "What are you doing!?" Alex said, nearly dropping the stack.
"You said you wanted to help, so here you go, all you have to do is pass out the flyers." said Justin.
Gripping the papers a little tighter, Alex glanced at him, "Could you be any more unoriginal? You need to think more creative, I mean come on, you are a wizard." she said the last part quietly.
"I am not going to use magic." Justin whispered.
"If you won't, I will." she said in a sing song voice.
"Alex, no! Nothing good ever happens when you involve magic."
Rolling her eyes, she replied, "Magic is a waste with you."

The week had passed and the weekend had arrived. Currently, Justin was on the first level of his parents apartment, making himself a cup of tea. Finishing up, he made his way over to the dark brown couch that was set in front of a wooden coffee table, and a large flat screen TV that was mounted to the burgundy wall. Sitting down, Justin got comfortable and closed his eyes. Taking a deep breath, Justin finally relaxed.
No less than two minutes later, the doorbell rang. Sighing, Justin made his way over to the metal door, and he was surprised to see who was behind it.
"Mr. Laritate, what are you doing here?"
"I'm here to take you to detention, Mr. Moriarty." he said, calmly.
"Excuse me!"
"I'm as surprised as anybody, but I don't want to hear it, you're coming with me."
"But, I didn't do anything!" he exclaimed.

Making his way over to Mr. Laritate's office, Justin still couldn't figure out what he had done wrong.
"Mr. Laritate, what did I do!?"
"You'll find out soon enough."
Looking around the small room, Justin saw all of the other problem students that he would inevitably be spending the next few hours with, he wasn't surprised in the least to see Alex.
"What are you doing here? Did the teachers finally get annoyed by you turning your homework in early?" Alex said, laughing.
"Mr. Laritate you've got to get me out of here!" Justin said, ignoring Alex.
Finally finding the right key to his office, Mr. Laritate opened the door, "I'm sorry son, but somebody has vandalized my office, and every clue has got your face written all over it."
Walking into the office, Justin was stunned. Every single inch of the room was covered in his 'Justin is Just-in Time' flyers, he didn't know what to say.
"Alright everybody, take your seats, detention starts now." Looking down, Justin sat in a near by chair.
Sitting down next to him, Alex smiled. "How do you like it?" she asked.
Quickly turning his head towards Alex, Justin looked angry, "Did you do this!?"
"What do you think Justin?" she said, tilting her head.
"What the hell Alex, what's wrong with you? I thought you were going to help me, not get me in trouble."
"Calm down drama queen, you'll be fine, besides this is a good thing."
"How so?" Justin asked, impatiently.
"You wanted more votes, and this is a great way to get them Justin. If people think you pulled off this prank, I can guarantee that most of the people in this room will vote for you."
"So, you decide to help me by getting me in trouble. The election is on Monday, not too many people are going to hear about this anyway, plus I don't want to be known for vandalizing the principal's office."
"Trust me, people will hear about this, and after the election is over, I'll tell Mr. Laritate that I did it."
Turning away from Alex, Justin ran a hand through his hair, "Why are you going to so much trouble to help me?"
"It's not trouble when you like to pull pranks Justin."
"Fine, just don't do anything like this again." he said, trying to relax in the cushioned chair.
