Paige sat in her science class looking at the clock. Minutes seemed like hours every time she was in that class. How the hell did I get myself wrapped in this bet? And why the hell did the guy have to be Jay. He is just so..so..eeww. Well perhaps he has potential. No, scratch that he will top notch after I'm through with him that's for sure. Now how am I going to get that boy to go to the mall with me? Do I want him to go to the mall with me? "Paige. Paige. PAIGE!" the teacher's stern voice broke her daydream. "Uhh.eh..yeaaaa?"A few people in class giggled.

"Paige, would you please stop daydreaming and come up here to get your text book?"

Paige felt her face get warm. She knew that her face wascrimson red.She tried to cover her face with her hair as she walked up and got her book. She took her seat and buried her face in her hands. She felt a poke from behind. She knew it was Hazel, she didn't want to turn around but she knew she wouldn't stop poking, then it would lead to Hazel thinking she is mad at her. So she turned around hastily. "Whaaat?" she said in a loud whisper.

"What where you daydreaming about? Or should I say whooo? JAAAAY possibly?" she asked with a devious grin. A few girls in front turned around trying to ease in on the conversation. "Hazel! Please just keep quiet about this all for now ok?" Paige turned back around. Note to self find more friends who don't have big mouths. She opened up her hot pink notebook and turned to a fresh clean page. She got out her favorite purple feather pen and began making a list of her own. In bubble letters at the top she wrote. "How To Make Jay King of Degrassi" She began making the steps it would take to change Jay in to King material.

Step 1. New wardrobe. She scratched out the word wardrobe and put "everything".

Step 2. Work on attitude problem.

Step 3. Integrate with my friends.

Step 4. Start campaigning the new Jay to Degrassi.

Step 5.Have him crowned king.

When she was done she looked down at her list. This shouldn't be that hard. Hopefully. After the final bell rang Paige walked over to Jay's locker. She stared at him for a moment has he put on his headphones and put the rest of his tools into his locker. She grew some what infatuated at the sight of him doing the simple activity of putting the items. She shook her head to wake out of the thought. She gather her composure and walked over to him. She raised her hand to tap him on the shoulder but stopped. Should I even touch him? Will be beat my face in for bothering him? Stop being silly Paige, just do it. She tapped him on the shoulder. He turned around. A smirk emerged on his face at the sight of Paige. He removed his headphones and let them hang around his neck. His eyes rolled down from her hair to her painted pink toenails. "Well if it isn't little Miss Pom Pom coming to pay her king a visit." Paige rolled her eyes.

"Jay please, don't flatter yourself. I just came over to tell you that we are going shopping today."

"We are? What makes you so sure about that?" he said as he put the last tool in his locker then closed it. He leaned up against his locker and folded his arms.

"Because if you ever want to have that cash in your hands it is in you best interest that you take my advice and we do a make over." Jay was about to say a witty comeback but he stopped himself. He picked up his book bag and slung it over his shoulder.

"Now what time is this big shopping adventure happening?"

A part of Paige was relieved that he was being decent. Maybe he isn't so bad after all. "Well we could go right now if you want?" Jay looked down the hall and saw Alex approaching. "Now sounds pretty good." He began walking to the double doors. Paige hurried to catch up. They walked over to Jay's car.Peoplewere staring and whispering as they walked by. They couldn't believe their eyes. Paige and Jay!?!Paige tried to ignore their stares and she got into Jay's souped up car. She looked around inside. Not bad, not bad at all. This is only nice thing about him. She thought. Then thoughts of Jay and Alex making out and doing other things in the car made her shiver. Jay turned up his sound system and they were on their way to the mall. Paige glanced over at Jay as he drove. There was an "art" to the way he had control of the wheel and gear shift. Jay felt her eyes on him and he turned down the music.

"What's your deal? Never seen someone drive before?" he asked looking down at her.

"Nothing. Nothing at all. I have to call my mom and tell her I will be late." She rummaged through her purse to find her cell phone.

"Of course, gotta call mommy dearest wouldn't want her to worry about her precious princess." Jay said with a smirk.

"There is nothing wrong with a parent worrying about their child." She found her phone and called her mom. She told her mother that she was studying over at Hazel's. She didn't want to tell her about going to the mall with some strange boy because she knew that it would be an issue. After she hung up Jay began to laugh.

"What's so funny?" she said puzzled.

"I just find it funny that you, a person that comes off as high and mighty not afraid of anyone, feels the need to lie to their parents. Shit. I thought you would be afraid of me." He looked over at her. She caught eyes with him for a moment and quickly looked away. The truth was he did frighten her but in a good way she thought. She liked that finally someone was more intimidating than she was.

"Why would I be afraid of you?" she said looking out the window.

"Because most people are." He pulled into the parking lot.
