When the last period ended, I went to find Justin and Max so that we all can go home.

"So, have you thought about it?" Justin suddenly asked.

"Thought about what?" I asked him.

"About me, with you?" he said.

"Oh, you were serious? I thought you were kidding"

"No, I wasn't. I can't let my sister humiliate me" he said.

"Me? Humiliate you? Oh please. And besides, it was Gigi who poured water on me, ok?" I defended.

"Yeah, and you're weak enough to not fight her back. You always fight with me, why are you so afraid of her?"

"I'm not afraid of her,ok?" I said.

"Whatever. I'm older than her, I don't think she could scare me" he said. I sighed as we walked in the sub station.

THE NEXT DAY:

I made my lunch as I was getting ready for school.

"Hey Alex" Max said making his sandwich.

"Hey Max. So you wanna tell Tracy your feeling?" I asked him smiling.

"I'm thinking about it. I'm just a little bit afraid" he said.

"Well don't be. She likes you too" I comforted him.

Then Justin came down as well and we all go to school. Right when we were at school, the first thing Max did was go and find Tracy. Justin and I got to my locker. I started to get annoying.

"Justin, don't you have to go to your locker?" I asked him opening my locker.

"No, I changed it with Cody, so mine will be next to yours" he said opening the locker that used to belong to Cody (a friend of ours).

"Why are you getting so protective?" I asked him.

"I'm not getting protective, I'm trying to get myself not to be humiliated" he said taking books from his locker. I glared at him.

"Hey guys" Harper said.

"Hey Harper. You can not believe what Justin just said. He just said that I humiliate him" I said looking at him.

"Well…" she started "when Gigi pours water on you, you do humiliate him" she said looking at Justin. I groaned and turned around to take my books out of the locker.

Gigi's POV:

Karen, Lauren and I walked to our locker. Then Karen nudged me.

"Gigi, it's Alex" she said pointing at her. I smiled and closed my locker. But when I was going to come there, I saw Alex with another guy. They were laughing very hard.

"Hey, who's that guy standing with her?" I asked Karen and Lauren.

"That's Justin Russo, Alex's brother" Lauren replied.

"How do you know?" Karen asked her.

"I'm in the same class with him. He dated a goth girl named Miranda. But since Miranda moved to another school in LA, they broke up"

"Good, then I'll have more reason to be near him" I said looking at him.

"You like him? I don't think you like that type of guy. I'll gave you 3 reasons not to date him. First of all, he is Alex's brother. Second, he's the nerd, the bookworm, you won't like that. And third, HE IS ALEX'S BROTHER" Lauren yelled.

"And what's wrong with that?" I asked her still lokking at him.

"He's Alex's brother, your enemy's brother" she added as if I didn't get that part.

"I don't care. You just said you're in the same class with him, right?" I asked her.

"Yeah, so?"

"I want you to get out there, talk to him and introduce me. I'll walk over there" I said.

Alex's POV:

When Justin and I were laughing at Harper since she dropped her books to her own feet, I heard a familiar voice. I looked up and saw Lauren, one of Gigi's wannabes. But strangely, she didn't talk to me, she talked to Justin.

"Hey Justin, Alex, Harper"

"What do you want?" Justin asked her.

"What? I can't talk to my friends?"

"Friends? I thought you said I looked gross yesterday when the Chemistry teacher said we had to pair up?" Justin asked her.

"I was kidding" she said. How would Justin know her? I was wondering and saw Gigi walked to us.

"Hey Alex, hey Harper" I looked at her in a weird way. She continued "Hey Lauren, who's your friend?"

"This is Justin Russo, I'm in the same class with him. He's also Alex's brother. Justin, this is my friend, Gigi" I rolled my eyes.

"Hey, I'm Gigi" she said sticking out her hand.

"I'm Justin" he said smiling and took her hand.

"Gigi in a nice way? I don't see that before, and it's kind of weird" I whispered to Harper while Justin was talking to Gigi.

"I know. And Justin is nice enough to reply to her" Harper whispered back in a dreamy voice.

"I think Gigi likes him"

"WHAT?" Harper screamed. The students in the hallway looked at her.

"What happened?" Justin asked.

"Nothing. I thought Alex said something about you" she said. I looked at her. Great. Now Justin will ask what I told her. But I was lucky enough because the bell rang, cutting him off.

AFTER SCHOOL:

After school, I waited for Max and Justin. When I saw Max, he was smiling like a dork.

"Hey Maxie, what's the good news?" I asked him as he passed by.

"What good news? What are you talking about? Now let's go home" he said and was half way out of the door.

"Not so fast" I said grabbing his backpack and pull him closer to me.

"What?" he asked innocently.

"You don't wait for Justin?" I asked him, then added "Besides, I know that you're hiding something. Look at you face. You're not gonna tell me, then I'm gonna have to guess" I said looking at him pretended that I don't know anything. He looked at his feet with a little hope that I can't guess right, I think.

"You ask Tracy out, and she said yes" I finshed. He blushed. I smiled a him "Hey, you're blushing. That means it's true. Check it out, our Maxie has a girlfriend" I teased him. He blushed even more.

"Shut up or she'll hear you" he said looking around.

"Awww, so it's true? You can't deny now" I smiled. Right then, Justin walked to us "Let's head home, guys"

I glanced at him. He looked back at me "Alex, you're going or not?"

"I don't care. Why didn't you tell me you know Gigi?" I asked him.

"Ok, for your information, I don't know her" he replied.

"Then how can Lauren know you?" I asked.

"Well, if you have to know, then she's in my class" he answered "I don't know any of her friends. And she always says I look gross and everytime she looks at me, I always look like a stupid nerd" he added. I glared at him "Stupid nerd? She couldn't come up with something better?" I asked him.

"She's not the smartest in my class" he stopped "Wait, you know her?" he asked.

"I do. It's just I don't even have an idea that she's in your class. She's not that smart"

"Whoa, hold up. I did say she wasn't the smartesr. That's because I'm smarter, of course" I glared at him. He glared back, then continued "But I didn't say she wasn't smart. I mean, she can be very sharp sometimes. She's smarter than 50 percent students in my class"

I opened my eyes widely "She's that smart? Is she the same age as you?" I asked him. He nodded. It was my mouth's turn to be opened "I can't believe this"

Then I realized that we're at the door of the sub station.

"I think I'm going up to my room. And if Mom or Dad ask you, say that I'm in the biggest shock ever in my life, ok? And at dinner, bring the meal up to me. I'm gonna stay in my room till tomorrow" I said then went straight up to my room.
