Maryse shrieked as she ran into Mike. She jumped up and down, giving him a hug and then pulled away, running off down the hall towards Kelly. She knocked Kelly down to the floor in a huge hug.
"Homecoming!" Maryse yelled, jumping up and skipping off to post flyers for queen.
"Wow," Edge started, walking up to her. "By the way you acted so calm this week, I didn't think you cared much about homecoming."
Maryse rolled her eyes. "Are you serious, bro? I, like all other girls in this school, am running for queen." Edge looked surprised. Maryse looked at him with annoyance.
Edge opened his mouth to say something, but then closed it, running his hand through his hair before speaking up. "You'll win by a landslide." He assured, walking away.
Maryse turned at watched him leave with a confused look. "Wasn't expecting that." She muttered.
"He's all for surprises." A voice said behind her. Maryse turned her attention around to Kaitlyn. "Now, don't feel so happy about his comment. I'm obviously ruling this school. There is no one better than me for queen."
Maryse glared at Kaitlyn, taking a step forward. "You know what? I have had just about enough of you. You need to back off." Maryse warned.
"Oh yeah? Or you'll do what? Hair flip me to death?" Kaitlyn asked.
Maryse smiled. "Thanks for the suggestion, but I think I have a better idea in mind."
Maryse turned, walking away and posting more flyers.
"You excited for homecoming?" Christian asked Kelly, having a free first period since Christian finished the project.
Kelly sighed. "Uhm... Sort of? I guess so, but I don't know..."
"Are thinking about what we talked about yesterday?"
"Christian, can we change the subject?"
Christian sighed. "Nope."
Kelly rolled her eyes. "Christian, come on! I don't want to talk about this, not in public."
Christian stood up, taking Kelly by her wrist. "Mr. Parson? We're gonna go chat outside the door." Mr. Parson looked up from his work, nodding.
Christian pulled a reluctant Kelly outside, shutting the door behind them. "Talk to me."
Kelly stepped away. "Honestly, there is nothing to talk about. And even if there were, I'd probably tell Maryse first."
"Why? Am I not always there for you? I was there in the park with you Kelly! I was at your recital! I was there when Monte passed!"
Kelly glared at the floor, temper rising. "Christian! Stop! I really don't need this right now."
"You're right, you need compliments and fake friends. What I need is the old Kelly back."
"I am the same Kelly, it's just I'm different on the outside."
"Which'll make you different on the inside."
"Christian! Stop!" Kelly repeated. "So what if I decide to change my look for once? Why is that so hard to accept? Change is good! Do you really think I'd want to stay the way I was for the rest of my life? You have no idea what I have been through!"
"Change is not good Kelly! Not if it means loosing yourself along the way!"
"I haven't lost myself!"
"Look at yourself Kelly! Extensions, fake lashes, make-up, skanky clothes? This isn't you!"
"YES IT IS! Why can't you just accept that?"
"Kelly!"
"Christian!"
"Uhm, can you guys tone it done, just a notch?" Randy asked, popping his head through the door.
"SHUT UP!" The two yelled in unison. Randy glared at the two, closing the door.
"So you won't take my advice?" Christian asked, turning back to Kelly.
"What advice? Christian, just go away and leave me alone!" Kelly turned and stomped off.
Christian ate lunch in silence. He glared down at his food, not looking up. Not even when a joke was cracked, or his name was called.
"So Christian..." Kaitlyn started, inching closer to an annoyed Christian. "Still don't have a date for homecoming?"
Christian shook his head, still not looking up.
"Well, it just so happens I don't either. So I was wondering if you and I could go together?"
Christian looked up and sighed. "I've decided... I'm not going."
The table all gasped, even Maryse. Kaitlyn looked like death at this point.
"WHAT?"
"Yeah, I mean it's stupid to go anyway. What's the big deal? It's just a dance. I'll play the football game, but I for sure am not going to that lame dance."
"Dude, come on, you gotta go." Edge said, trying to convince him into it.
"Nope, my mind's already made up."
Maryse did a face-palm. "Oh my god Christian, stop being so ignorant! We all know you and Kelly had a fight in the hallway, we heard it."
Layla looked at Christian in confusion and disgust. "Why are you even upset about a fight with her?"
"Why were you even talking to her?" Kaitlyn asked with a glare.
Christian rolled his eyes. "None of that even matters anyway. So let's just move on."
Maryse frowned and looked at Edge, who shook his head. Seems they'll have to work as matchmakers once again. And it would have to be tonight.
After Edge's match, Maryse met him backstage.
Edge grabbed a towel and wiped his sweat off with it. "So I heard there was a fight in first period?"
Maryse gave a big sigh. "You have no idea, it was full on screaming."
Edge looked a little disappointed. "So we're gonna have to make up Plan C?"
"I guess so."
"Well, what are we gonna do?"
"Uhm," Maryse got on her tiptoes, whispering the plan in his ear. "I have a match next, so we can talk about this after your game."
Edge nodded. "Sounds good."
