A/N – This is my first fanfiction story that I have written, and I hope you like it if so please review.
Also I don't own WOWP or anything connected with it.
Finally the something I had been looking for fell right in front of me, Alex's class was having a reading competition and the one who could read the most books in one school day would win an all expenses paid vacation for them and a friend to a teenager resort of their choice, with no parental supervision.
I know what you're thinking, it's not much of a something but let me just explain something to you all. Alex along with many other things is lazy, very lazy; the less she has to do the happier she is, so as you can imagine reading a book is far too much work for her, she usually just uses her magic to write her book reports or watches the movie. So how was this going to work and pay her back, well I need to think about that and see what I can come up with.
Nothing, I couldn't come up with anything, the day of the competition was only a week away, and Alex was taking her usual casual attitude of winning the prize by relying on her best friend Harper who loved to read and was very fast. Harper who wasn't really happy that Alex was using her like this just passed it up as normal Alex behaviour and like me was used to the way Alex treated her and so went along with it especially as she couldn't really see herself going on vacation with anyone other than Alex so she just let it go.
Harper and I had been chatting about the competition a couple of nights before it was to happen and Harper had been telling me that she was really nervous as she didn't want to let Alex down especially as she really wanted this vacation. Harper had also mentioned that she really wanted the vacation herself as she hadn't been away for ages and felt that that was exactly what she needed right now to relieve some of the pressure and stress she was going through. I told her that she shouldn't let Alex use her like this or let her treat her this way as it was only going to make her ill, and that's when my idea to pay back Alex hit me on the head.
Of course it meant that I too would have to use Harper in the same way Alex did and I hated that fact, also I knew Harper liked me and would do anything for me, but would she go against her best friend to help me out. I really hoped that she would see it for what it was, helping Alex to realise that sometimes it was better to be kind and nice rather than mean, selfish and lazy. To help her to see that sometimes it's more of an achievement to get up and do it yourself than rely on other people. Well only one way to find out, wish me luck.
