Paige sat in algebra reading her text book when a note landed on her desk. She looked around and saw Jason looking at her from a few desks away. She unfolded the note and read.
You heard me talking in my sleep last night, didn't you?
She sighed.
Yes
She looked around to see no one was looking and flicked it over to Jason. Then he passed it back.
Nice aim
Thanks
Did you read the bulletin this morning?
No
The plays been switched to Alice in Wonderland, they had the parts posted.
What did you get?
Mad Hatter, you want to know what you got?
Duh!
Okay, Alice
Sweet
Well, you didn't have much to compete with.
Well, we don't have a love scene in this play but-
"Ms. Bennett is there something you would like to share with the class?" Ms. Sternly asked.
"Uh, um, n-no, no nothing." She stuttered.
"Then would you kindly hand me your notes you've been passing with Mr. Todd?"
"Uh, uh,"
"Well?" then the bell rang, the Ms. Sternly sighed. "Class dismissed. Ms. Bennett, please come here."
Paige packed her backpack and walked up to the front of the classroom as everyone filed out.
"I know you've had a hard time lately but you don't need to take time that you can have talking to Mr. Todd outside of class in class."
"Uh, o-okay, Ms. Sternly." She tucked her hair behind her ear.
"Now, if I catch you passing notes in my class again you'll have detention." Paige nodded nervously. "You can flirt with Mr. Todd after class, okay?"
"O-oh, we're just friends, my friends and I have been staying with him and Mr. Wayne as the police have been looking for the rest of our troop."
"I see, well, I suggest you get to your next class." Paige walked out and saw Jason waiting for her.
"Sorry if I got you in trouble." He said.
"No, she wasn't all that mad, just very curious." She laughed. "Curiouser and curiouser."
"About what?"
"Hey," Rena hopped over and kissed Jason. "Oh, hi Paige."
"Hi, Rena." She sighed.
"Oh, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, did you see the bulletin? They've changed the play, and everyone got their parts." She said, changing the subject.
"Wow, I hope I got Alice." Paige was instantly happier; she had something Rena didn't have.
"Actually, Paige got the part of Alice, I checked this morning." Jason said.
"Oh, well then what did I get?"
"Card one." Rena's face fell.
"Oh, well, we can't always get what we want." Then she parted to her next class.
"You still getting a bad vibe off her?" Jason said jokingly.
"Shut up," she smirked as she walked into her classroom.

The cast of the play walked to the theater and picked up their scripts. Paige sat with her friends waiting for the car to come pick them up as she highlighted her lines for the play.
"No musicale?" Christel asked.
"Nope, Alice in Wonderland." She scanned the script and soaked in all of the words. Then the car pulled up for them and they got in.
"Hey, Al." Jason said.
"Hello, Master Jason." Soon they were back at the manor and Paige sat in the library reading her script for hours, memorizing every line.
