As daylight sprung out of the windows, Theresa had felt like the most unlucky girl in the world. She was in her bedroom, thinking of only person ; Jay.
Her best friend, Atlanta, had always told her to be hopeful, but Theresa knew the truth: there was no connection between Jay and her. But was there?
The mischievous Herry was snooping around, finding the team's leader in the library. Herry had taken his Halloween mask, and put it on his head. As quiet as he could be, he snuck be hind Jay and scared him as best he could. Jay had fallen over. He scowled at him, but then smiled. "Yeah, thanks for the jolt. What are you trying to do? Restart my heart?" Herry laughed. "Nah. Just bored. So, what are you thinking?" Jay looked at him strangely. "Excuse me?" "You're not reading or anything. You always come here to think! C'mon tell me!" Jay sighed. "Well, it's kinda weird. Theresa and I had done something to resemble the sign of our friendship, and tomorrow is our Anniversary." Harry couldn't help but laugh. "Y-you gotta be kidding!" "No I'm not. I was planning to give her something but I can't think of anything." Herry rolled his eyes. "You are so weird, you know that? I mean, you guys are so tight!" Jay sighed. "That's the problem. I think I like her. She's so beautiful, bright, and she's the kind of person to make me excited, you know." Herry smiled. "You like her? Dude, you are messed up!" "What? Its not like you haven't fallen in love before." "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold it there! You said you 'like' her, not 'love'." Jay frowned. "Ok, I lied. But I like her. A lot!" Herry sighed, but smiled at him. "You get some breakfast and clear your mind on this. Take a break."
As Jay went off, Atlanta came to the library. Herry laughed hysterically. "Oh, man! Atlanta! You won't believe this! Jay actually has a thing for Theresa!" Atlanta gasped. "Oh my god! That's perfect!" Herry frowned. "Oh no….we're not bringing them together!" Atlanta smiled. "No, but it's Jay's and Theresa's Anniversary. If we set them up, they're bound to be attached." Atlanta called Neil, Odie, and Archie, telling them to meet her in the library.
As the five talked, Herry laughed in between, thinking the leader of the group going out with a member. Archie blinked. "They LIKE each other! How is that possible?" Atlanta groaned. "Uh, haven't you heard of 'love' before? Guys, this is really important! Haven't you seen how Theresa acts around Jay?" Odie smiled. "Atlanta has a point. I've seen Theresa." Neil thought for a moment. "Come to think of it, yeah! She goes all shy around him!" Atlanta smiled. "So, what about Jay?" Herry snickered. "He went ballistic." Atlanta sighed. "So, it's settled. We take both of them shopping tonight, and leave them alone in the garden tomorrow night. Ok?" Neil frowned. "But what if they bump into each other tonight?" "Odie's got it covered. We're going to wear a GPS, just to make sure."
Just as silence filled the room, they heard footsteps coming into the room. Herry chuckled. "Hey, Neil, it's Jay's girlfriend!" He whispered. "Shut up, or you'll spoil the surprise!" Atlanta shot. "Hey guys. What's up?" Theresa said, looking distracted. Atlanta looked at her weirdly. "Are you ok?" "No, I'm not. Anniversary, remember? I don't have anything to give to Jay. Atlanta, help me!" "Hm… Err, what if Herry went with you to go shopping?" Theresa turned around. "That would be a total miracle!" Herry growled. "Thanks, Atlanta."
"Serves you right!"
Jay stepped into the room. He gasped but forced himself to smile. "Oh, um, hi, Theresa." Theresa smiled. "Right back at ya." Jay smiled. Theresa left the library. Jay sighed, then turned to Atlanta. "Hey, um, do you know what type of thing Theresa would like?" Atlanta smiled. "Totally. She likes jewelry, like necklaces. By the way, she's been dying to get the necklace with the gold heart-shaped locket." Jay snapped his fingers. "I can get her that. Thanks, Atlanta!" He said, running off. Odie smiled. "When they switch presents, I'll be video-taping them!"
