"Uh- we were talking. Yeah! We were talking!" Wally had said
"Oh, and Jen, is that what you actually look like, do you put on makeup?" Richard asked
"Yes, and I put on a wig, to make myself look scarier…"Jennifer said sheepishly

"Today, we are going to be starting 'The Crucible'. I am expecting you to read chapters 1-4 with a partner while I run an errand." The stuck-up teacher said with a lemon-face
Racheal and Garfield had partnered up the second after she left.
"Um….Do you wanna-maybe-um pair up?" Gar nervously stuttered
"Sure, Gar." Racheal said in a monotone
They started reading and Gar froze. "What would happen if you were in the time of the trials, Rae?"
Racheal glanced at him. Why would he care?
"I guess I would be killed, especially if I lived in Massachusetts." She said
"I'm glad this is the 21st century then."
Racheal momentarily was a statue. He actually cared about her. She knew that they were friends ever since he went to Nevermore, but she didn't know he cared for her.
Garfield was in shock. He can't believe he just did that! Even better, she let him call her Rae! His mind was racing, his heart was thumping, and he was on Cloud 9. Then he suddenly fell from the sky. When he got home, he was in for Hell to pay. What if she was only holding back because they were under-cover? What if she went full-out demon on him (literally!)?! He seriously didn't want to get her mad; he just wanted to let her know that he really, really, really, really wanted her to be his. What did he have to do? He knew flowers weren't her thing, books are too generic with her, cheesy pick-up lines were definitely out of the picture. He got an idea. It was perfect!
