Chapter 3
"So basically you just pretend to like me so during science class you ask me out ok?" Alex said.
"Why science class?" Justin asked.
"Because Mason and Leah are in that class together so that's perfect!" she said.
"You mean Lisa not Leah." Justin said.
"Oh whatever you know what I mean!" Alex said.
**Science Class**
"So boys and girls that is how the body of the frog looks like. Now lets get ready to dissect. I will have to step out of the class to get the supplies so behave!" the teacher said.
Like that's going to happen, Alex thought.
"Psss...Pss Justin!" Alex whispered.
"Now?" he asked.
"Now." Alex said.
Justin got up from his seat and started to walk towards Alex. He pulled out a rose.
"Alex Russo." Justin said.
"Yeah?" Alex said.
"Will you go out with me and go to prom with me?" Justin asked.
Alex pretended to hesitate and looked around. No one was looking or noticing.
"Justin. Say it louder." she whispered.
"ALEX RUSSO!" Justin said louder.
Everyone started to look.
"Yes?" she said again.
"Will you be my girlfriend and go to prom with me?" he asked.
Alex hesitated and smiled.
"Justin. Yes. I'd love to go with you." Alex finally said.
Alex got up from her chair and they hugged each other. Mason noticed and walked over to them, followed by Lisa.
"What?" Mason said.
"Oh, sorry Mason is something wrong?" Alex asked.
"How could you go with another guy when we just broke up!" Mason said.
"Mason, we are over. Remember that. Go to prom with Leah." Alex said.
"Its Lisa and I will. I was about to ask her." Mason said.
"Good." Alex smiled.
"Lisa, would you go to prom with me?" Mason asked.
"Of course! We are dating...where's my rose?" Lisa said.
"Uhmmm" Mason said.
Mason didn't know what to do so he took the rose from Alex's hand.
"Here love. Your rose." Mason said to Lisa.
"Thank you baby. Its beautiful!" Lisa said.
"Wow Mason, impressive. You can't even buy a single rose for your girlfriend. I remember when we were dating you bought me tons of roses. What happened to this one?" Alex said.
"I...I wasn't prepared." Mason said.
"Aw its okay Mason. I'll still go to prom with you." Lisa said.
Alex rolled her eyes.
**Lunch/Cafeteria**
"Hey Alex! Why don't we sit together with our boyfriends?" Lisa said.
Before Alex could say anything, Lisa dragged her to the table where Mason and Justin were already sitting.
"Great..." Alex said taking a seat next to Justin while Mason and Lisa were sitting together.
"But how about Harper?" Alex asked.
"Oh don't worry about her. Some of my friends are fashion designers, so I introduced them to Harper since I know that Harper likes "fashion", so they're eating lunch together today." Lisa said.
"Oh...uh...good" Alex said.
"So Alex how did you and Justin meet?" Mason asked.
"Umm...Justin! Why don't you tell the story?" Alex said.
"Ummm well actually Mason...Alex and I were actually best friends. And we just you know...developed feelings for each other, but she was dating you, so she was waiting until you broke up with her so I could be her boyfriend." Justin said.
"Oh...interesting. I never heard her mentioning you at all." Mason said.
"Well, Mason. I didn't tell you everything when we were in a relationship." Alex said.
"Oh well...Lisa and I are really really in love." Mason said.
"Yep." Lisa said.
Mason and Lisa started to kiss for a couple of seconds. Mason tried to make Alex jealous, but when he looked over Alex was already kissing Justin. Mason got up from the table and walked away.
"Oh...sorry Alex and Justin. We have to go." Lisa said.
"Ok." Alex said.
There was an awkward moment between the two siblings.
"Why did you do that?" Justin asked.
"Im sorry Justin, I didn't want it to go that far, but Mason just made me mad!" Alex said.
"I think I need to go." Justin said not knowing what to think about what just happened.
"Sorry." Alex said.
**Waverly Sub Station**
"Hey honey. What's wrong?" Alex's mom asked.
"Um...nothing. Just tired from school." Alex said.
"Tired? From school? This isn't you at all Alex. Are you still sad from the breakup?" her mom asked.
Alex sighed.
"Kind of." Alex said her eyes watery.
"You know what? You can go upstairs. Go and get some rest honey." her mom said.
"Ok." Alex said walking to her room.
**Alex's Room**
Alex walked around her room. She was confused.
-Ring,ring-
Alex saw that Harper was calling and picked up her phone.
"Yeah?" Alex said.
"Hey. Mason called me and asked why you weren't picking up your phone." Harper said.
"Why would he care?" Alex said.
"He wanted to ask if you wanted to go the carnival with him and Lisa." Harper said.
"Harper, can you go with me?" Alex asked.
"Im sorry Alex, but Im busy." Harper said.
"Busy? Doing what?" she asked.
"Well, Lisa introduced me to some of her fashion designer friends and I'm hanging out with them." Harper said.
"Urghhh...okay fine. Thanks for telling me. Bye. Have fun." Alex said.
"Ok. Bye." Harper said.
Alex called Mason.
"Hello?" Mason answered.
"What do you want?" Alex asked.
"Nothing, its just that Lisa and I are going to the carnival so we were wondering if you and Justin wanted to tag along. It can be a double date." Mason said.
"...Fine." Alex said.
"You know the carnival that just opened? Meet me...i mean us there like in 45 minutes." Mason said.
"Whatever. Bye." Alex said.
She sighed. She was already tired from all of this.
"JUSTIN!" Alex said banging on his door.
"What?" Justin asked.
"Open the door. Hurry." Alex said.
Justin opened the door.
"What do you want?" he asked.
"Go to the carnival with me in like 30 minutes. You know the one that's close to us?" Alex said.
"What? Why are we going there?" Justin said.
"Mason and Lisa invited us. So go." Alex said.
"Fine." Justin said.
"Im going to get ready so you get ready too." Alex said.
Alex went back to her room.
She opened her closet and chose to wear denim shorts with a black crop top that showed her flat stomach. For her hair, she left it out with loose waves. She also wore her black converses. She applied multiple layers of her lip gloss called Kiss Me. She also putted mascara and eyeliner. She looked in the mirror and she was done.
"JUSTIN! Are you done?" She asked.
"Yeah." Justin said walking out of his room.
He was wearing jeans and a tee shirt with a leather jacket. He was also wearing a pair of converses.
They walked down the stairs.
"Mom! Justin and I are going to check out the carnival." Alex said.
"Wait! Hold up. You guys? Going together? Are you guys getting along?" their mom said.
"Um...kinda. We just wanted to check it out. Can we have...money?" Alex said.
Her mom sighed. Well at least they're getting along, her mom thought.
"Here's forty bucks each. Have fun." their mom said.
