The two girls turn and saw Marco standing there

"How did you get past-"

"The ice queen?"

The two chuckled

"Well I snuck in while she was talking to Darius. Anyway I agree with Ellie, you should go after the girl you love"

Alex sighed, "I am scared that I am going to get my heart broken"

"Well I think that you wont, I talked to Dylan"

"And?"

"He said that the way Paige is acting, our friendly blonde is still in love with you"

"I can only hope"

"Well I think even Hazel agrees, Dylan said that she isn't with anyone either"

"So, I might be able to win her heart again?"

"Yes!"

"But I can't do this all by myself"

"Well you aren't"

"Huh?"

"You have me, Ellie and Darius that has your back. With Dylan and Hazel of course"

Alex smiled, "Really?"

"Yeah"

"Oh by the way you aren't the only one trying to get into Banting"

Alex looked at Ellie, "What?"

"Well Darius and I have been talking and we decided that maybe we should give college a try too"

Alex smiled, "Seriously"

"Yes…Serious as a heart attack"

Darius walked in, "Man she has ice in her veins"

Alex ran and jumped into his arms

"What are you so happy about?"

"I am going to do it"

"Do what?"

"I am going to get into Banting and win my girl back"

Darius looked at his two friends, "She's not kidding?"

"Nope…She's not", Marco replied

"What changed your mind?"

"Other than me sitting here feeling sorry for myself?"

"Yeah"

"Marco told me who all are rooting for me and then Ellie said that you and her are trying to get into Banting too"

"You told?"

"Well I think she needed to know"

Darius sighed, "You are right…So I guess we need to get a plan together"

Marco smiled, "Come on…I am Marco the plan maker"

Everyone else laughed
