A/N: I love all of you guys for the reviews you leave. Just thank you so much. You're all really great. So yeah, I started band camp the other day and my muscles really hurt rn. It's all good. Special thanks to Lex the Superhero for her review because it was super sweet and made me smile for the rest of the day. But yeah guys, here's the latest chapter :p

Disclaimer: I don't own Lemonade Mouth or any of the characters. If I did, Rayella would be on like Donkey Kong.

"You didn't text me back!"

Ray rolled his eyes, slamming his locker shut. He couldn't understand girls sometimes. Especially girls like Patty. He'd turned her down about a hundred times in the past month and she still didn't seem to be getting it. That was sad.

"Okay I'm gonna break this down for you, slowly because I'm pretty sure that's the only way you can comprehend this. I'm" Ray started, pointing to himself. "In a relationship," He drew a heart in the air with his fingers. "With Stella," He finished, pointing down the hall to where Stella was standing with the rest of Lemonade Mouth.

Patty glared down at Stella "Whatever Ray. Look at me, and then look at her. She's cheese wiz! I'm caviar!"

"That's an awful analogy, Patty. Because I'm pretty sure you don't know what caviar is. And because I'd take cheese wiz over caviar any day," He argued. Where was someone to save him? Anyone would work.

"What's going on here," That familiar voice questioned. Bless her soul, she came to rescue him. He felt her wrap an arm around his waist, and smirked at Patty. Yeah Stella was pretty good.

Patty scoffed "Just talking, Yamada."

Ray looked down at Stella and saw her smirking "As long as you were just talking. Because you know, I don't share. And I get pretty pissed when people try to steal things that are mine."

Patty's glare got stronger and for a second Ray thought she was going to pounce. Instead she just turned and stormed off.

"Why is she-" Stella began but Ray cut her off.

"I really don't know. She's a rare, crazy species and I don't know how to decode her. And I don't want to try. Simple as that."

Stella just nodded "Right then." She looked around the hall, and Ray was pretty sure she was on the lookout for Mo. He looked around with her, and noticed almost everyone in the hall staring at them.

Right, their school mates still weren't used to their new 'relationship'. He flipped everyone off, trying to send the message that everyone should stop staring at them.

He understood that it was probably the craziest thing any of them had ever seen. Everyone knew that Ray and Stella hated each other. He hated her the very first day he met her, and likewise she hated him. It was just them and everyone was aware of that. So for those two to be clinging to each other like an actual couple was probably a little startling.

Whatever. He didn't care what people said.

The warning bell rang and Stella pulled away from him "See ya later, blondie." With that said, she walked off towards her class.

Ray just shook his head and smirked after her.

"Stella Yamada, huh? Nice bro. She's definitely going to help you gain some popularity. Lemonade Mouth is the best," One of his soccer team mates said to him.

Okay, he did care what people said.

Stella looked at her new text, and snorted.

Big Stupid Ignoramus with a Stupid Face

Kind of got detention. Hope you didn't need me for anything after school today.

How had Ray managed to get detention? Principal Brenigan loved him, and usually let him off the hook with everything.

What did you do?

"Ohhh who are ya texting," Olivia asked her. They were in physics. There was a sub in which meant that the entire class did nothing but talk or text all period.

Stella looked over at her and shrugged "Ray."

Olivia's smile fell, and she looked like she was thinking hard about something. What was that about?

"Liv, why are you looking at me like I kicked a puppy," Stella asked. Why was Olivia always looking at her like that?

Olivia sighed "I'm still not sure about the who you and Ray thing. If Mo finds out, she's going to be really hurt and really mad at you Stella."

Stella rolled her eyes and leaned back in her seat "Mo isn't going to find out unless you tell her Olivia. And if you tell her, then I'm going to be the one that's really mad. I'm not trying to do this to fool her or whatever. I'm doing it because she's left me no choice. She doesn't give me a break and I need to make her see that Stella plus dating equals huge big mess."

Olivia looked down at her notebook "How do you know that? You've never actually tried to date anyone. Maybe you'd enjoy it."

"Are you serious? I don't need a boyfriend, Olivia. I'm independent and I can take care of myself," Stella snapped. That was her way of saying 'This is the end of this conversation.'

Olivia, luckily, got the picture and changed the subject "Well what are you two talking about?"

Stella snorted again "Ray got detention."

"What?! Brenigan actually gave him detention? What for," She questioned. Everyone knew that Ray was Brenigans favorite.

Stella shrugged, and looked at her phone again. "Oh hey he just texted me back."

Big Stupid Ignoramus with a Stupid Face

Kind of punched a kid in the face. He asked for it. Said dating you would help me with popularity because you're in Lemonade Mouth. I'm already popular I don't need your help.

"Are you even serious," Stella commented out loud.

Olivia raised an eyebrow "What?"

"Ray is such a dumb ass. He punched someone in the face for saying dating me would help him with popularity. Why is he so conceited? I don't get it," Stella ranted. There was a reason she hated Ray. She would never date him for real. He was too self-centered and mean for her.

Olivia just laughed next to her, shaking her head.

"Yeah Liv, go ahead and laugh. You're not the one fake dating him for the next few weeks."

Detention sucked. Ray was never going to do anything to get stuck in there again. He hadn't had detention once in high school, mostly because he knew how to suck up and because he was head jock so teachers just loved him. But apparently him punching loud mouth couldn't be ignored. He'd spent an hour staring at the wall and doing absolutely nothing else. It had been awful.

Evil Succubus

Hope detention was fun. But now I need you. Come to Dante's.

Ray just loved how Stella ordered him to go and not ask. But that was Stella. Being an evil succubus and everything.

So he did what she asked, got in his car and drove to the pizzeria. Not that Stella could just tell him what to do now but he had nothing better to do with his time. The only person he could hang out with and not want to kill was Scott. Scott who was always with Lemonade Mouth.

He walked into Dante's like he owned the place, because he was Ray. And Ray was just awesome. Scanning the place, he spotted Stella and her lemon head friends in the corner. He made his way over and slid in next to Stella, and kissed her cheek to keep up the appearance.

He didn't know who to be mad at. Scott for convincing him to agree to helping Stella, Stella for having the problem in the first place, or Mo for constantly badgering Stella enough to make her get the idea.

So he figured if he stayed mad at all 3 that his problem was solved.

"Ray, hey man," Scott said with a smile. Sometimes Ray thought Scott was such a nerd. He was way too nice to people, and he let Mo boss him around all the time. Ray would never settle for that. Ray never dated to begin with so he wouldn't get caught in that situation at all anyway.

"Hey babe. How was your hour of shame," Stella asked, leaning closer to him. Well she was certainly getting used to that. Although he knew inside she was probably cringing. He didn't get that. He wasn't awful. He smelled fine. He looked great. She should have felt lucky to get to pretend date him. Even he could appreciate good looks when he saw them, so he could tell that Stella was actually really hot. She must have been blind not to see he was too.

Ray shuddered at the memory "It was awful. I'm never getting into trouble again."

Mo scoffed "Good luck with that one."

He sent a glare her way. Mo had never really liked him and he never really liked her either so they were in the same boat. Mo was what he liked to call stuck up. And a level ten bitch.

"Now now you two, let's not be hostile," Stella joked, squeezing his arm hard. He winced, and clenched his teeth together. On second thought, maybe Stella was the level ten bitch.

He looked around the place, looking to see if he knew anyone else there. He didn't see any familiar faces but he did see two really hot girls sitting across the room. He smirked and winked their way. They giggled and smiled back at him.

"Ray are you serious?! Stella is right there," Mo hissed. She sounded like a lethal cat sometimes. He looked over at her and shrugged. He figured if he started the drama now, it would explain their upcoming break up.

Mo looked over at Stella, obviously trying to gauge her reaction. Ray looked over at her too. Stella seemed not to care, but when she realized that Mo wanted her to react differently she glared at Ray and smacked him in the back of the head.

"Ow!" He rubbed the back of his head, and shook his head. Beating-Ray-Up was not a part of their deal.

Stella continued to glare "Stop looking at them."

"Aye aye captain," He said sarcastically.

Mo's eyes widened. Whatever. Maybe they could cut the fake dating thing short and just break up right then and there.

Stella's glare softened and she put on her best I'm-so-sad face. Wow that girl was a good actress. "I'm serious." A small lip quiver. Oh he hated her.

He mustered up the best guilty look he could and ran a hand through her hair "I'm sorry."

She gave a small smile and hugged him. Mo smiled and leaned closer to Scott.

Stella tugged on his hair. "Seriously? Are you trying to get us caught," She whispered in his ear.

"Thought maybe I'd try to speed up the break up process," He whispered back.

"Bull shit, you were just trying to get your flirt on. We can't break up yet, and you agreed to do this so you're doing it my way. Stop being a douche bag," She finished and pulled away.

Ray screamed internally. Why did this happen to him?

Fine. He would just have to make things hard on her.

"Stella, I love you."

A/N2: It's late and I'm tired. I hope this didn't turn into poop.
