"Alright, class, I have already decided who the partners will be", Mrs. Lopez announced as all her students arrived at the class. Jason stood next to Mrs. Lopez' desk. "Alright, here are the partners...", Mrs. Lopez went on and on, until it reached Cornelia's name. "Cornelia Hale...", Cornelia looked nervous, "...you will be paired with Jason Jacaman". Cornelia's heart quickend, Oh no, this means trouble now. "You can go sit next to Cornelia, Jason", Mrs. Lopez pointed to the empty seat next to Cornelia. Jason went to sit down next to her. Jason smiled at Cornelia, Cornelia smiled back. Will looked at Cornelia, Poor Corny.
Bla bla bla, all the way to Will Vandom. "Will Vandom...you will be paired up with Uriah", Mrs. Lopez announced. "What!", Will stood up. "Is there something wrong, Miss Vandom?", Mrs. Lopez had threatening eyes. Uriah grinned in his slouchy form. "Ugh, no Mrs. Lopez, I'm sorry", Will bowed her head in surrender. "Good, go sit next to Uriah", Mrs. Lopez pointed towards Uriah. "Hi, A+ ticket", Uriah whispered with an icy grin. "I'm not even smart (she is, but she gets C's and D's)! Don't expect me to do everything", Will complained to him. "Whatever, Wilma", Uriah laughed. "Ugh!", Will's face turned red with fury.
"Does she not like him?", Jason asked Cornelia. "He's the worst person to hang out with, don't even talk to him", Cornelia advised him. "You and Will seem to be good friends...", Jason said. "Yeah, we're best friends...", Cornelia responded. That was, of course, after Elyon had no change in her mind that Phobos was evil.... "Also the other girls, what are their names again?", Jason asked. "Haha! You ask too many questions", Cornelia laughed quietly. Jason smiled wide. "Their names are Irma, Taranee, and Hay Lin", Cornelia finally responded. "There you go", Jason leaned back on his chair in a cool sort of fashion. Cornelia smiled at him.
"Your project will have to be to get together with your partner, and do a model of a working, human hand. Show all the muscels, bones, and joints. Label them as well. I expect to have an A+ material for all of you. You will present it in 2 weeks", Mrs. Lopez said.
After School...
The girls walked the school halls. "At least you didn't get stuck with Uriah", Will complained. "Will! Stop complaining, we heard you the first time", Taranee said. "Sorry,I just can't stand that boy", Will's hands turned into fists. "Whoa, easy girl", Irma touched Will's fists. Will's hands eased. "Good girl", Hay Lin smiled. "Yeah, you just have to stop worrying about it", Cornelia smiled at her.
"Hi Will", Matt said. He was walking in the opposite direction. "Hey, so are you still up to Friday night?", he stopped in front of her. "Of course, see ya then", Will put her hair to the back of her ear and smiled. "Great-", he gave her a quick kiss on her forehead, "-see ya then, bye Will". Matt waved before continuing to walk. "See, that totally beat the Uriah problem, now didn't it?", Irma giggled. "Yeah", Will blushed. "I'll catch up to you guys later", Hay Lin suddenly said. "Um, where are you going?", Taranee asked. "I'm gonna go see Eric practice b-ball. He looks so cute in a jersey", Hay Lin cooed. Everyone raised an eye brow and grinned. "Alright, see ya later, Hay", Irma waved.
"Hey wait! Does anyone wanna come with me? I don't wanna be a loner at a guy's practice", Hay Lin called to them. "Um...I guess I will", Cornelia stopped walking and went towards Hay Lin. "But don't you wanna see if Ca-", Taranee started. "Caleb isn't even here", Cornelia smiled. "And...you know this because?", Irma asked. "Because he told me yesterday. He said he was gonna go do something with the rebels today, he isn't coming back until tomorrow", Cornelia said. "Dang, he tells her everything, but he doesn't tell us a thing", Irma grinned and laughed. "Ok, bye guys!", Will waved at Hay Lin and Cornelia and left them with the girls.
"Alright, Cornelia, let's go", Hay Lin pointed to the gym door. They both walked into the gym and saw the boys practicing basket ball. They went to go sit down in the bleachers, watching the guys. Of course, Cornelia really didn't have anyone to look at. Hay Lin, on the contrary, was cheering for Eric like a cheerleader. Eric laughed and turned red as Hay Lin cheered for him.
"Calm down Hay Lin! Hahaha! You should really think of becoming a cheerleader", Cornelia laughed. "Ugh, and join the little pom-pom girly-girls that Irma hates, as if. Besides, I'd try out for the Eric-cheering squad!", Hay Lin giggled. "Of course, what else would you try out for? The Eric-swimming team, the Eric-gymnastics?", Cornelia raised an eyebrow and smiled. "Duh!", Hay Lin kept cheering and moving around. Cornelia laughed.
Suddenly, Jason came in with the same jersey every boy did. The guys stopped and clapped for Jason, who came in with them. Cornelia raised her eyebrows. "Alright, team, you guys remember Jason, right?", Eric said. "You go, team leader, I love you! Woo!", Hay Lin yelled. Eric smiled sheepily and waved at Hay Lin. "Of course we remember this b-ball master", a guy said and gave Jason a high-five. "B-ball master?", Cornelia whispered to herself. Hay Lin looked at her with confusion as well. "Thanks you guys", Jason laughed. "Let's play scimage while we wait for coach", Eric said. "Alright!", all the guys yelled.
They all picked their team and then Eric grabbed the ball. "Hey, Hay Lin! You wanna be the one to throw the ball up in the air to start us off?", Eric stretched the arm with the ball towards her. Hay Lin jumped up and ran over to them. Cornelia smiled. Eric passed her the ball. "Alrighty! Get in your positions! It's time to get down!", Hay Lin did a little dance as she went to the center of the basket ball court. "Dang, your girlfriend should be a cheerleader", a guy laughed. "That's exactly what Cornelia said!", Hay Lin said. "Told you", Cornelia said from the bleachers. "It's ok, I like Hay Lin when she's just a typical girl. My girlfriend", Eric hugged her. Hay Lin giggled softly. All the guys "aaw"ed at them.
Eric went to the center, with another boy at the other side. Hay Lin looked at both of them, and then threw the ball up. Eric got the ball and started dribbling. (Alright, I'm not very good at describing all the moves in between, so I'm just gonna skip to where the game is tied, and Eric has the ball and is dribbling it to the basket). Boys surrounded him. Eric looked around, he passed it to a guy near the basket. Everyone else went to him. Before they could reach him though, he passed it back to Eric. Eric shot the ball, but a boy pushed him a little, causing the ball to hit the board behind it. Cornelia and Hay Lin gasped. Suddenly, Jason ran towards the basket, jumped up, and slam-dunked the ball into the basket.
"Wooooooooo!", everyone yelled. Cornelia stood up with Hay Lin and went over to the boys. "I guess the coach never showed up. We'll practice tomorrow, same time, alright guys?", Eric said. The boys nodded. Everyone started to leave the gym, Hay Lin started to walk with Eric, Cornelia went walking by herself though. "Cornelia!", Jason walked up to her. "Wow, Jason. I never thought you were, like, a basket ball king or something", Cornelia smiled. "Yeah, I was the head in my old school", Jason said proudly. "Hey, so Cornelia, when do you wanna meet for the science project?", Jason said. "I'm not sure, probably on Saturday. Is that ok with you?", Cornelia replied. I wish I could just tell him that I like someone already, he's making it so hard! I don't wanna break his poor heart, Cornelia thought. "Yeah, that's fine. So I'll see ya tomorrow, ok?", Jason smiled(Haha! and you know what it's like when a hotguy smiles at you, pressure! wink wink,haha!). Cornelia nodded. Jason waved and left.
Cornelia left the school and started walking home. Poor Jason. He is really cute, but I think that Caleb is better...I just hope Caleb doesn't think it's something else. He's that jealous type of guy...so cute!, Cornelia smiled as she thought of Caleb, her wonderful Caleb. He really did care for her, even though he wouldn't admit...well you know. Cornelia also loved him with all her heart, but Jason is just getting in the way. He is really cute, but Cornelia's thoughts were puzzled at the same time.
"Cornelia!", she heard a familar voice from behind. She turned to see Caleb walking up to her. "Caleb? I thought you weren't coming back until tomorrow", Cornelia's face lit up. "The rebels told me that I could take a break, they say I've been working too hard", Caleb was right in front of Cornelia. Cornelia and Caleb started walking side-by-side. "Well, you really have been working hard. I don't even get to see you as much any more. You're always going to Meridean", Cornelia smiled. "Yeah, I'm sorry. Too many things with the coronation and all", Caleb replied.
Cornelia and Caleb stopped in front of her house, "Ok, well, are you gonna go to Meridean any time soon?". "No, I'm gonna stay here for a while", Caleb smiled. "Good, so I'll see you tomorrow, ok?", Cornelia smiled. Caleb nodded, "And I...never mind". "What?", Cornelia stood in front of him. "I'll tell you tomorrow", Caleb smiled sweetly. "Why not now?", Cornelia put her hands on her hips. "Because, I don't wanna tell you", Caleb put his hands on his hips, mocking her in a playfull way. "Oh fine, but you better not forget, cause then I'm gonna be stalking you", Cornelia laughed as she said that. Like I never don't stalk him. "Ok, ok, I promise I won't forget", Caleb put his hands on his sides again. "Ok, I'll see you tomorrow", Cornelia waved. Caleb gave her a kiss on the cheek, "Bye Cornelia". Cornelia gasped and felt her cheeks getting red. He waved and started walking. Cornelia put a dreamy smile and blushed red. She skipped into the her apartment.
"Who's he?", Jason said to himself. He was standing in the bushes near Cornelia's apartment. "Whoever he is, he'd better know that I saw Cornelia first", Jason smiled to himself and crossed his arms proudly.
"I wonder what Corny's doing right now?", Irma said to Will and Taranee. "Why are you wondering that now?", Taranee asked, smiling. "Well, cause she has the pressure of two hot guys following her", Irma grinned. "Hot? Irma?", Will grinned. "Oh come on, you gotta admit that Jason is pretty hot", Irma shrugged and smiled. The girls nodded inagreement, "Cornelia sure is lucky", Will said. "Well, sorta. She also has Caleb. I would hate to be in that sort of situation", Taranee said. "I wonder what's gonna happen?", Irma smiled.
"I think it's mostl likely to be Caleb, though. You can totally tell the sparks between them", Will said. "Yeah, like you and Matt", Irma grinned. "Yeah, Will!", Taranne laughed. "Oh whatever", Will blushed. "Oh come on! You got a hot date with Matt on Friday, don't tell me that isn't romantic", Irma laughed. "Yeah, Will, Matt loves you alot", Taranee said. "Yeah, I love him too", Will cooed. "Aaaw!", Taranee and Irma giggled. "And besides Taranee and lover-boy Nigel, what about you, Irma?", Will asked as she grinned at Taranee. "Well, there's this guy in my class...", Irma put her hands behind her back. "Oh! It's that guy! What's his name...Oh yeah! Nathan, right?", Taranee said. "Yeah", Irma blushed. "Dang, this is comin out good", Will said.
"I wonder what's it gonna be for Cornelia, though", Taranee said. They walked down the side walk, and thought about the outcomes...
