Just so you know, the next chapter(and the whole story) is going to have a lot of singing and music in it. Naturally (just like in High School Musical), almost everyone has a good voice, so there will be a lot of singing. Thanks!


Will POV

Piper, Leo and I walked through the classroom door, and I sat down in the teacher's chair. The guy pulled out two desks and chairs and dragged them in front of the teacher's desk. I watched as he pulled out a chair for Piper before sitting in the other himself. She smirked at him and whispered, "What a gentlemen!" He smiled back at her.

Silence. I tapped my fingers on the desk, glancing up at them every once in a while. Piper was staring at the ceiling, and Leo was staring at her. Man, that guy must really like her!

"So…are you going to tell me, or not?" I asked, mostly just to break the awkward silence. Piper flinched. Her eyes snapped to Leo's. What was going on here?

"Wafers," she muttered. Wafers? What did that have to do with anything? Leo spoke up. "It was all a big set up. They tricked you. The same thing happened to me, too."

I was so confused. "Okay, let me get this straight. Vanilla wafers tricked me into thinking that Piper cheated on me?"

Two pairs of eyes looked at me as if I were crazy. "Huh?" Leo said. Piper looked at me strange. "Where did you get wafers?"

"That's what you said!" They both shook their heads. "Oh, good! I was starting to think that aliens had taken over your minds or something… Wait. If that's not what you said, then what did you say?"

Piper bit her lip. "I said Reyna." "And Jason," Leo added.

I crossed my arms. "Explain." She then went through a complete description of what happened at the dance three years ago. It all made sense now. "And you say the same thing happened again?"

"Um, yeah. Last year," Piper said awkwardly. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "At Homecoming."

Oh. So those two are dating. Wait- they're dating? Not on my watch. Now that I know for sure that she didn't cheat on me, I wanted her back. When I came, I was prepared to forgive and forget, as long as she took me back. But I wasn't prepared for this.

I didn't know what to say. What was there to say? I love you, so please break up with him so you can be with me? I may want her to do that, but I'm not heartless enough to say that to her face!

Lion- or whatever his name was- was staring me down, silently daring me to object. Piper wouldn't meet my eyes. Finally, she stood up and walked out of the room, closing the door softly behind her. After a few seconds, the guy followed, with me on his heels. He headed immediately for Katie and Travis. I found Piper in the corner, listening to her iPod. As I walked up to her, she glanced up at me. I could hear her music from three feet away.

"Are you listening to Greenday?" I practically shouted.

She cocked her head. "Pardon?"

I smirked. "Obviously."

She blinked. "I can't hear what you're saying!"

I mimed taking ear buds out. She took them out and put her iPod away. Then she looked at me expectantly.

"You know, it's okay. That you two are dating, I mean." She nodded but didn't seem to believe me. "Really, it's fine."

"Whatcha guys talking about?" Leo strode up behind me.

"Oh, nothing." Piper smiled at him.

"Hey, Beauty Queen," he continued, "are you signing up for the school talent show?"

She blushed and looked down. "I don't know. Maybe."

"What do you do?" I asked curiously.

"Well, besides being the prettiest girl on the planet"- I can agree with that-"She's good at dancing and has an awesome singing voice."

"I also play a little guitar and piano," She added shyly. To Leo: "And my voice isn't that good."

"Piper Lynette Mclean! Are you kidding?" he exclaimed. "Okay, that is it! Young Lady, I am signing you up whether you like it or not!" He then took her by the shoulders and led her away, towards the bulletin board. On his way there, he called back to me: "Oh, Will! You need a ride?"

"No, I'm fine." No need to be impolite.
