This is the third installment of my lovely story. Ahahahaha. You know, I've been starting to do the ahahah thing a lot one stories, texts, etc. but I don't even laugh like that. Hmmm, whatever, ya'll really don't care. Ahahahaha. But just to refreshment your memories, here's a disclaimer.

I DON'T OWN ANYTHING THAT I'M GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT. (Except for my plot line of course. :D)

When Richard pulled up to school, he faced his normal routine. He got out of his car, he got stared at by the underclass girls, and he walked inside and found his friends. "Hey guys. What's up?" Richard said setting down his book bag.

"Hey Dick, how's it going? As you can see, Gar didn't do his calculus homework…again." Victor said shaking Richard's hand. Gar looked up at the both of them at the mention of his name, gave both of them a mean look, and went back to his homework.

"When will you learn to do your homework at home Gar?" Richard asked him, shaking his head.

"When you learn to stop riding my dick, Dick. Hey! That's a great play on words, or something." Gar said laughing at his own joke. Both of his counterparts rolled their eyes and laughed at their goofy friend.

"So anyway, idiot aside, how did you enjoy The Good Note? I thought it was pretty chill. That Rachel girl is a really good singer. Nice voice." Victor said.

"Well the food was great and the entertainment was good like you said. She can really sing, but I wish Kori wasn't there. She always puts a damper of things with her attitude." Richard said.

"Yeah, I know what you mean. But speak of the devil, here she comes."

"Hey Dick! How are you?" Kori said with enthusiasm.

"Hello Kori. I'm alright. How are you?" Richard said with lackluster.

"Oh I'm great! I-"

"Hello to you too Kori." Victor said interrupting her train of thought.

"Oh! I was totally about to say hello to you Vicky! I was going to make it personal!" Kori said with a slight attitude in her voice.

"Sure you were sweetheart. And don't call me Vicky." Victor said with the upmost seriousness. Victor saw past Kori's fake façade. He was a very wise soul, despite his years. He has never trusted Kori.

"Anyway! I'm just here to tell you that I had a great time with you guys last night, but I personally am not a fan of The Good Note. It was kind of lame." Kori said.

"Really? We were just talking about it and we really liked it. We actually want to go back tomorrow night." Richard said.

"Well, you know, when I think about it, I liked the food a lot. I think I can get over it for another trip." Kori said, back tracking her previous statement.

"Actually, we were planning a guy's night. You know Liam Neison movies, dinner, more action movies. Working on our cars, I don't think you'll enjoy our company." Victor interjected.

Garfield looked up from his homework and said, "We were? Where was I when this whole exchange went down?"

"Calculusland. Now shut up and finish. The bell's about to ring." Victor said.

"Well you know Victor, I like Liam-" Kori starting to say. The bell rang before she could finish her statement.

"Shit! Man, I'm not even through with my homework!" Garfield said.

"Well Gar, this will teach you to do your homework…at home." Richard said helping his best friend up, totally forgetting about Kori. The three boys walk towards their first class and left Kori, mouth agape, by herself.

Raven got to school just as the bell rang. Her and Sophie looked for a parking space and finally settled for a parking space in the "accredited" popular section. Both girls got out of the truck and ran inside and to their classrooms before the bell rang. First period for Rachel, orchestra, was the only solace in the entire school day. She could let out pent up emotions. It was a free day from full rehearsal, but Rachel still wanted to play. She gathered her instrument and music and went into the nearest available practice room. After tuning carefully, she began the drag her bow across the strings, beginning her piece. As she played the notes and felt the swells of volume and tempo that Beethoven put in his work Romance in F major, Rachel instantly felt at ease with the world. As the last diminuendo was played, the high C made her feel relaxed and happy. She ended the piece, stretched, and began to play her favorite piece of all, Bach's Chaconne in D minor. As she got to the where the piece started its major cadence, Rachel completely forgot about all of her problems. Throughout this short passage, from the seemingly angelic phrases to the climax of the song, Rachel felt every emotion Bach must have while writing this brilliant work.

Just as she finished the last chord, the bell rang, signaling the end of the period. She packed up her belongings and went to her next class. That class went off without any problems, much to Rachel's surprise. 'Maybe this will be a great day after all,' she thought as she walked into the cafeteria for her lunch period. She brought her lunch that day, so she headed straight for an empty table. She waited for Sophie to arrive patiently, but after five minutes alone, she checked her phone, looking for a sign of where her best friend would be. She opened her phone and there was a new text from her. It read, "Sorry Rae! I have to study for a killer calculus test for next period! Hope you won't be too lonely. " Rachel sighed and thought, 'Awesome job Soph." So there sat Rachel, by herself in the cafeteria surrounded by so many people, but feeling so alone. She didn't mind being alone, but today was different. She didn't understand why, but something was about to happen and she didn't know whether or not she wanted to know what it was. She continued to eat her lunch, thinking that everyone was ignoring her, but unbeknownst to her, there was an entire table across the cafeteria watching her every move.

"She's so depressing. I can barely stand it." Kori said while munching on a celery stick. She rolled her eyes at the non-suspecting girl and went back to her lunch.

"She really is. Whatever, she's still hot. I'm digging the whole pale, goth look. Maybe I should go talk to her." Garfield said.

"Yeah and have her reject you again. Go right ahead, it'll be a great laugh." Richard said, taking a bite of a peanut butter sandwich.

"Oh, well then why don't you talk to her?" Garfield said defensively.

"Umm, no thanks. She's not my type." Richard said.

"Oh really? What is your type Dick?" Kori said seductively.

"Anyway, let's stop talking about this girl. She's not bothering any of us." Victor said, clearly ignoring the comment Kori made.

"No dude, if Dick has jokes, let's hear them." Garfield said.

"I don't have jokes, but I just speak the truth," Richard said setting down his sandwich, knowing something big was about to happen.

"Oh really? Well, I'm pretty sure that I could get that girl to fall for me a million years before she does you."

"Now who's the one that has jokes? That's ridiculous. She wouldn't give you the time of day." Richard spat out.

"Guys, seriously, calm down. Gar, stop egging him on, he's just going to get even more heated. Just leave it, and that girl alone." Victor said quickly, trying to diffuse the situation.

"You're completely right Vic. I'm not going to go after her." Garfield said, a mischievous smile spreading on his face all the while.

"Good. You can spare that girl," Richard said sipping at his milk.

"You didn't let me finish. I'm not going to go after her, but you are."

Richard almost spit his milk out on the table at that. "Excuse me?"

"You heard me. Let's bet. Put your money where your mouth is."

"Hmm, alright. What are the terms?"

"Woah guys! Hold up. Back up a little!" Victor said, but quickly realized he was being ignored.

"I bet that you can't get her to sleep with you in…60 days. So by the end of January, you get in her pants or you'll have to pay me ad Victor one hundred bucks each. And if you win, then me and him will pay you one hundred bucks each."

"I'm not a part of this! I refuse!" Victor said, but was completely ignored again.

"You've got yourself a deal my friend." Richard said shaking Garfield's hand.

"It's a perfect opportunity to start early, she's all alone." Garfield said mischievously.

"Alright, here I go. It'll be easy." Richard said getting up, gathering his belongings, and throwing away his trash.

When he started to make his way over to Rachel Victor said, "Gar, this is fucked up and you know it."

"Yeah well, he agreed to it. And besides, by the looks of it, we'll totally win." Both boys looked at the direction where their friend was standing.

"Hi. What's going on?" Richard said when he made his way over to Rachel.

She looked up from her book, gave him a once over, and continued reading.

'Well that's not what I expected to happen.' Richard thought, but recomposed himself. "I'm Richard. What's your name?" He said holding out his hand.

"Generally when people ignore you, they don't want to be bothered." Rachel said coldly.

"Well, why are you ignoring me? I'm just trying to be nice. And besides, you're talking to me now." Richard said, dropping his hand, all the while his temper flaring.

"I'm choosing to stop ignoring you because you obviously don't understand the concept of someone wanting to be left alone. At any rate, I don't need you to be nice to me. So why don't you just go back to your lunch table and leave me alone," Rachel said calmly, still keeping her emotions under control.

"You looked lonely, I tried to come over and relieve you of loneliness, and you just act like a complete bitch unprovoked. How nice," Richard said to her, slightly raising his voice.

"There is no need for name calling Richard. But if you insist on not leaving me alone, then I'll do you a favor and leave myself," she said, gathering her belongings. She got up and started walking away.

"Wait, look, I'm sorry. I-"

"Don't bother okay? Just stop," she said, not turning around. She continued walking and went through the double doors, exiting the cafeteria.

Richard sighed and rubbed a frustrated hand through his gel free hair. 'Well, that went well.' He started to walk back towards his lunch table, but turned around as soon as he saw Garfield laughing at his failed attempt. He walked out of the cafeteria, trying his hardest not to think of the girl that wanted nothing to do with him.
