Author's Notes: I know, two chapters in two days! I'm sorry, I just
couldn't resist.

We swept New York a glancing kiss,
To those who claim they know.
Under the streets the steam and hiss,
The devil's in his hold.
Whoa to sail away,
Sandy lands and holidays.
Whoa to touch the dream,
Eyes inside have never seen yeah. *Led Zeppelin, All My Love*
The next day, when Mrs. Lemmon announced that she would be assigning groups for the social studies project, Freddy didn't think much of it. Out of the 27 kids in the class, there was a small chance of him having either Katie or Marta in his group.
What he hadn't counted on, however, was having both Katie *and* Marta in his group.
"Group 3 will be...Katie, Marta, and.....Freddy. You will be doing a project on the Spanish conquistadors."
And as soon as those eighteen words left her mouth, all hell broke loose.
Katie buried her head in her hands and moaned in anguish.
Marta grinned wickedly and plotted ways to discreetly dispose of Katie.
Freddy shrieked unrestrainedly.
Katie rolled her eyes and dumped her books on Freddy's desk. "Okay, so I can go to the library and look up some material about the conquistadors. Freddy, make sure we have the necessary supplies and stuff, and start planning out our oral presentation. Marta, start working on the artwork and-."
Her domineering speech was halted when she chanced a look up and saw Marta stroking Freddy's arm.
'Help me,' he mouthed desperately, and she wanted to punch him.
Instead, she fixated her best glare at Marta and said evenly, "Marta, I would appreciate it if you got your hands off my boyfriend."
Marta looked scandalized. "He's your *boyfriend*??!" "Yes," Katie lied, and tried to look appropriately caring. "So get off."
Marta huffed and stormed away, and Katie marveled at how gullible she was.
"Is she gone?" Freddy asked from where his face was hidden behind his hands.
"Yes," Katie began sweetly. "And if anyone finds out about this I will personally rip off your balls and feed them to a penguin."
Freddy smirked. "You know, would that work? I heard a penguin's diet consists of-."
Katie shot him a look of death. "Shut up, NOW."
Freddy very wisely shut his mouth. He quite liked his balls where they were.
