Okay, so I am trying to update every other day, sorry if I don't!

LUCY POV

We lay there, in comfortable silence. Our fingers were intertwined and I was playing with his. Before you say anything, no, I am NOT a 'slut' or a 'slag' that just goes round and sleeps with everyone and anyone. I know that this is the man I want to spend my life with, because he is the one man who makes me truly happy. He must have known this because he leant down and whispered to me,

'Well, that cheered you up didn't it?' I smiled because he was right, it did. I turned to him.

'Yes, yes it did,' I said whilst smiling, and snuggling closer into his bare chest. He instinctively wrapped his arms around me, as if to protect me from anything that could harm me, which I liked. It wasn't that I couldn't protect myself, it's just it's nice to let my guard down once in a while after keeping it up for so long. Suddenly my internal alarm clock went off, telling me that my friend will be arriving in five minutes, and when I say five minutes, I mean five minutes. I sighed; Joe looked at me with worry.

'What? What's wrong?' He asked worriedly, I laughed softly.

'Nothing, well my friends will be back in five minutes so I have to go, which I don't want to,' I explained, after saying this Joe relaxed a bit, but put his finger under my chin so that I would look at him.

'Then don't,' he said lovingly, I shook my head.

'No, I told them that I remembered I had lots of homework to do and my cove-ops essay to write, so I would stay behind and do that instead,' at this he raised an eye-brow,

'You still haven't done the essay? That was set on Monday?' he asked slightly disapprovingly, I just looked at him.

'Do NOT go all teacher on me, AND you know I can do all that!'

'That doesn't mean you can miss out on homework!' I just laughed.

'That's why I am doing it today!' I argued back. He just grinned and kissed my, still slightly hot, temple.

'Okay, okay I suppose you should go if you are to finish it in three minutes,' I grinned,

'It's what I do best, last minute paper work! Along with many other things, but you get my point...'

'I know, go on you have now got two minutes to do it,' I grinned again,

'Challenge accepted,' yet another Blackthorne phrase...

I kissed him before pulling on my clothes and running to my room scattering all of my books on the table and started to write my essay.

My roommate got back a bit later, so that gave more time to complete my essay and start on my COW homework. Yes I know, you are probably thinking 'two minutes? A whole essay?' Well may I remind you that i have done it all before so already know EXACTLY what to put and i am a quick writer.

When my roommates came in they were all laughing and I got a small flash back of the first day I was here. I snapped out of it quickly when I saw them looking at me. I smiled.

'Hey, had a good shop? Did you get the jacket Katie?' they all just looked dumbfounded,

'You ACTUALLY did your homework?' Katie asked looking shocked, 'oh I did soo much more' I thought to myself but didn't actually say it. They might know about me and Joe but they certainly don't need to know about what we do.

'Yeah, why?' I asked feigning confused.

'Well, it's just... We thought you might just not want to be with us!' Katie blurted all at once, now i was surprised.

'Not be with you? Oh my days, no! I was so looking forward to going into town, but after today's... events,' I said referring back to breakfast, 'I just wanted to avoid the watchful eye of the many Gallagher girls roaming around Roseville, I am soo sorry that you might think that!'

They all looked relieved as Katie said,

'Oh, good because I didn't want you to feel... a bit cramped... like we're being too... clingy or something,' she said nervously,

'No, no. I'm fine, don't worry,' I said reassuringly.

(Next Morning)

I couldn't help but notice how jittery all the teachers looked this morning at breakfast, well except Joe. I guess that's what I can do to a guy, eh? Not bad.

Soon enough I found out why, we were sitting peacefully when the doors banged open, yet again, this time everyone stayed seated expecting me to start shouting at the intruders again. However instead of intruders, twenty boys strolled through the door; however most of them looked disappointed at the reaction. Well Ha-bloody-ha, we're Gallagher girls, what do you expect? I watched them sit down, ignoring Mrs. Morgan go on (and on) about the history, that is changing right now because of the boys doing an exchange, instead I focused my attention on three boys sitting quite close, who still hadn't noticed me. Once Mrs. Morgan had finished I walked over to their table casually and leaned over to talk in one of the boy's ear in a movie trailer voice. (AN The deep voices they do to build suspension)

'They say he came from the most hidden area of the Himalayas,' the boy who I was talking to didn't turn round, but smiled and replied.

'They say she can tail anyone, even the best,' I quickly replied keeping the strange voice,

'They say he can get into the White House, and get a picture with the President, without anyone noticing,'

'They say she can go where no man has boldly gone before without permission...' he paused, 'The director's office!'

'They call him... Jason' I paused to give it extra cheesy effect,

'They call her... Lucy,' Jason did the same cheesy affect. He turned round; we looked at each other before bursting out laughing and hugging and hugging the other two boys, also known as Matt and Chris. By now almost all the hall was watching me hug the boys, and I couldn't help but notice that Joe tensed up when I hugged Jason. I looked at the hall. What? I was communicating with boys! Well, newsflash girls, we will go on missions with them, so you may as well get to know them now! I looked back at Jason Matt and Chris,

'It's good to see you guys, I haven't seen you since Blackthorne!'
