Okay guys, here you go! You HAVE to review this chapter and tell me what you think.

Blackmail

After watching Cutting Edge Goodness play, I come home to do my homework. "You're doing your homework, right?" mom asks, poking her head in my room.

"Actually, I'm having trouble," I mutter.

She walks in. "Oh, I'm a pro at Math! Whatever you need I can..." She pauses looking at my math book. "Um, your gonna have to ask your sister."

"She's not taking the same Math class," I say. "Maybe I'll call someone and ask."

"Yea, call someone in the same Math class," mom says and walks out the door.

"Hey Legolas."

"Ryson?" Legolas asks.

"Yea, what're you doing?"

"Bored as hell. Don't laugh, I'm actually watching Bugs Bunny. I wish I had the movie channels."

"That sucks," I say. "Well, I called cause I need help with Math homework and I was thinking...since you live just two blocks away, you could come over here and help. Then we could watch movies on my TV. I have most of the Movie channels."

"Sweet!" Legolas says. "I'll hurry on over there."

"Thank, Legolas."

"No prob," Legolas said. "We could have fun just chilling."

"All right, I'll give you directions."



The doorbell rings and I let Legolas in. "Ooh, look who it is," Leanna mutters from the table where she's eating cereal.

"You didn't tell me LEANNA was here," Legolas mutters.

"Don't worry about her. I have a really big room we can stay in all night with video games, music, DVDs, and cable. The girls won't bother us," I say. This is kinda weird having a PRINCE at my house, helping me with my homework! Maybe while he's here I can find some things out about Emma.

"Let's go in there then," Legolas says, sneering at Leanna.

"Sure, lets go."



"Oh, you fool!" Legolas yells at the TV. "You were supposed to run with the ball!"

"Oh come on!" I say as I shovel popcorn in my mouth. "Even I could do better than that!"

Homework only took twenty minutes and the rest of the time we'd spent watching movies and football. This was cooler than I thought it would be. At first I felt weird inviting someone I hardly knew over to my house, but we ended up totally hitting it off!

"NO!! They lost!" Legolas screams and we both throw our hands in the air, letting the popcorn roll all over the floor.

"The Wizard's LOST!" I groan, throwing myself on the couch. "We were so close!"

Legolas and me look at each other and kinda laugh at how we were acting so cool around each other already. "Time for another...movie," I say, yawning. "Rimonna! Can you get us some coke?"

Surprisingly I hear "SURE!" from Rimonna's room.



Rimonna's POV

"You're gonna do something for Legolas?" Leanna asks. "Why?"

I giggle. "You'll see." We head over to the kitchen and I pour two glasses of coke. Then I get into the medicine cabinet and pull out my mom's sleeping powder. "It will knock them out for hours," I mutter.

"I'm not sure what you're planning," Leanna whispers, "but it seems fun."

"Oh, yea, you have no idea!"

I go in there by myself and hand Legolas and Ryson their cups. Legolas doesn't even look up at me at all. Jerk.

"Thanks," Ryson says.

"Yea," Legolas mutters.

"No problem," I say. "No problem at all!"



Within twenty minutes, Leanna and I are able to walk in Ryson's room without being worried they'd wake up. They both are snoring loudly, on different sides of the couch, their popcorn spilled in between them.

"We'll put makeup on both of them," I say.

"Let's do Legolas first," Leanna says. We pull out the pink eye shadow and put it thickly on top of his eyes. Then we put several coats of mascara on him. We try not to giggle. It's not likely we could wake them up, but it's even a bigger possibility that my mom could catch us!

When we're done applying the thick, wet lipstick to Legolas's lips, we move to

Ryson. "I think RED is his color," Leanna says.

"Yes," I agree, pulling out my red lipstick. "But I don't have red eye shadow so we'll have to use the lipstick for his eyes too."

Leanna shrugs. "I don't mind, just as long as you have film in your Polaroid!"

"And film I have!" I giggle. "These guys are gonna have serious payback time."

"We're done with them, so we just have to scooch them together and have their arms around each other," Leanna says, pushing Legolas. "Help me!"

I laugh. "This is gonna be so funny!"



Legolas POV

"Emma, wake up we have school," I mutter, without even bothering to open my eyes. I cuddle up next to her. She feels different. I finally manage to open my sticky eyes and yell. "Holy hell!!" I scream, throwing myself away from Ryson, who looks like he's been painted on! There's all this red goop on his eyelids and his eyelashes are thick with mascara or something!

I'm totally confused for a moment. What had just happened? Ryson just didn't put makeup on when I was asleep did he? That made no sense. Then I hear Leanna's giggle from somewhere around the house. I gasp. It was HER!

Ryson wakes up and points at me. "What happened to you?" he practically blows out my ears. Curse elvish hearing! I pause. Wait...was there makeup on me? Of COURSE there was! How could I have been so stupid!

"Look in the mirror, Bozo," I say.

"Huh?" he says. "Oh my fucking god! Where's the mirror!" I run after him as he dodges to the bathroom. We both look at the mirror and scream.

"Chill out!" Ryson says finally. "There's nothing that some water and towels can't fix!"

We both scrub our faces with beach towels and finally, all that crap is off, but our faces are red.

"There you go! See, everything is fine now," he says.

I nod and look at myself in the mirror once more. "All bett...AHHH!!!!"

"What, what?" he asks frantically.

I point to a picture taped above the mirror. I don't know how I didn't notice it before. I grab it and pull it off. We both gasp.

"They got us good!" he says.

I grab the picture and tear it up. "I'm gonna kill them both."

"Legolas, It's all right. The picture is destroyed and the makeup is off. We can just pay them back later today."

"But what if we blackmail you?" Rimonna pops her head into the bathroom. "That's not the only picture."

"Rimonna...you wouldn't dare. I could get you back just as good," Ryson says. Some reason, he looks scared.

"Ready to cooperate?" Leanna asks, appearing at the door. She holds up a piece of paper with the picture scanned on it.

"Cooperate? All we were doing was watching TV," Ryson says.

"What do you want us to do?" I ask. Leanna and Rimonna look at each other and smile devilishly.



Legolas: *gasp* "What will happen to me, your poor little Elvish friend?"

Ryson: "Will we be forced to do something for the two bitches or will we pay them back just as evenly? Will the pictures get spread around the school?"

Legolas: "Will Ryson get his own girl already or will I be cursed with having another guy be into my girlfriend."

Ryson: "Shut up, Prettyboy."

Legolas "Tune in next time to hear Leanna say, 'Legolas, please don't kill me!'"

Ryson: "REVIEW!!!"
