Omg I'm sorry this is so late. It took forever to get my thoughts together for this chapter. Not sure even how I feel about it. Also sorry if there's any typos I got fake nails and its harder to type with them. I love you all, darlings. R&R.


After two weeks, Chewy, Miles, and Maya had finally formulated the perfect plan. They spent time doing trials, mapping it out... Chewy was having way too much fun with this, honestly. He was going all out. There were times where Maya wondered if Zoe deserved all of this, but then, every day, there'd be a new reason to hate Zoe Rivas.

The plan was to sabotage Zoe at the school dance. Everyone was going to be there, so it'd be the perfect opportunity to ruin Zoe's reputation. She'd wish that she never even came to Degrassi, let alone mess with Maya or Miles.

(MAYA)

Maya looked good, no denying it, and she needed to look good for the dance. Better than Zoe, and she was sure that Zoe would be trying hard to look better than Maya.

Her dress was perfect. It was blue like the night sky and made her eyes pop. The top half ended right at the beginning of her ribs, and was covered in small silvery jewels that looked like stars. The bottom half was plain navy and tight to her body and made her small thin frame look more curvy than usual. Her hair was curled with small silver barrettes holding back the front half. Her makeup was light, but made her face glow. She finished the look with a pair of silver flats. She was not going to wobble around all night, no matter how good her legs looked in heels.

Maya left her room and ran into Miles in the hall. They'd planned to match, and he looked damn good too. A navy blue button down that was rolled up to his elbows, a pair of black pants, and a silver tie. "Daaaamn!" Maya smiled, pulling her boyfriend in for a kiss.

"We should get going." Miles said, looking Maya up and down and checking her out. "Stop staring!" Maya hit him. But it was good that he was staring. It meant she looked hot.

Miles and Maya arrived at the dance early. After all, they had to set up their plans. Since Maya was on the dance committee, she was able to set things up so it'd be easier for their sabotage.

The music hadn't started, but the DJ was setting up his equipment. He had headphones in so they came in un-noticed.

The plan was for Chewy to come up to Zoe when she arrived and tell her that Maya was crying in the bathroom because Miles broke up with her for Zoe, and that Maya was a wreck. Zoe would either feel bad, or, the actual possibility, go to rub it in Maya's face. Then, when Zoe came into the bathroom, Maya would lock her in, so they were alone. Then, Maya would confront Zoe and would get Zoe to admit that she was trying to hurt Maya and that she wasn't really with Miles. Then, Maya would, at the end, pretend to plead for Zoe's friendship, and if all went well, Zoe would accept. Maya would unlock the door and before Zoe left, offer her lipstick. Zoe would put on the lipstick, and leave. The lipstick had peanut oil in it. Zoe was allergic to peanuts, according to a Hollywood Gossip website. So, Zoe would go into the dance and her lips would get super puffy right in time for the Homecoming Court, which Maya paid to get rigged so Zoe would win Miss Sophomore, was announced. She'd get on stage all puffy faced and gross and everyone would joke on her for the rest of the year.

(NOBODY'S POV)

It was kind of juvenile, but Maya, Miles and Chewy were proud of it. Maya went to the bathroom when Chewy sent a text saying 'here!'.

The dance started and Zoe showed up with Chewy, fashionably late, since Chewy staged his car breaking down. She was already annoyed, so it was too easy. Chewy left her for a moment when Miles called him over. Chewy came back and told Zoe that Miles and Maya had 'broken up'. A smile creeped on Zoe's face. Zoe did all she could not to skip to the bathroom.

Zoe came into the bathroom and saw Maya, who was facing away from the door, with her hands over her face like she was crying.

"Are you okay, Maya?" Zoe spoke in the most insincere voice possible. An actress like Zoe should've been able to act better.

"Y-yeah I'm..." Maya said in a weak voice before turning to Zoe, walking past, and locking the door. "I'm surprised you're such a dumb bitch."

Zoe widened her eyes. "What is this?!" Maya laughed.

"This is your time to confess, Miss Rivas." Maya felt like she was on West Drive or some other cheesy TV drama. And it felt good to be cheesy sometimes. The word 'cheesy' brought Cam to mind, but Maya had to push that back.

"You psycho! Let me out of here! You're just mad because Miles dumped you, whore." Zoe spat insult after insult, ranting.

"No, Miles didn't break up with me. We're strong as ever. I just needed to get you in here so we could talk." Maya had to keep her insults to a minimum if she was going to get Zoe to take the peanut lipstick later.

"Talk about what?" Zoe replied calmly. She had plenty of acting skills, and she just needed a character to play. A character who had no idea what Maya was talking about. Zoe reapplied her lipstick in the mirror.

Maya rolled her eyes at Zoe's fake innocence. "You know what I'm talking about!" Anger was boiling Maya's blood like a pot of water on a stove. "You trying to sabotage my relationship! This may work on your little TV show, but this is real life and no amount of crappy ruses is gonna make Miles want you! You're ugly on the inside and the outside and I hate you! Just admit that you've been trying to get Miles to like you, and maybe I'll let you off the hook with no bruises."

Zoe rolled her eyes. "Listen, little converse wearing whore! Yeah, I'm trying to steal Miles but I guarantee that soon he'll realize that he doesn't want you. He wants me! You're eternally jealous of me for being better than you. Miles will want me. I know it! Those pictures I staged in the ally? He wanted me. We made out and he was saying that it was a set-up because he didn't want to break your heart! You are such a..."

Zoe kept like this for a long time, but Maya stopped listening. She got what she needed. She grabbed the lipstick from Zoe's hand and slipped it in her pocket while Zoe was fuming, and handed back the one with the peanut oil in it. She didn't care about being subtle. Zoe was too mad to even notice the switch.

"Hey, Zoe? You're spitting all over me and your lipsticks gone. Just reapply it and I'll propose something. You look all hot with that lipstick and try to kiss Miles. He's waiting for me on the dance floor. If he likes you, he'll kiss you."

Zoe smiled. "Too easy." She said, applying the lipstick without even noticing it was different.

"I'm so jealous of you." Maya joked, as she unlocked the door and let Zoe go to the gym, where the dance was completely started. She was about to make a mess of herself.

Maya followed into the gym and stood with Chewy. Clare Edwards got on stage to announce the court. Two random freshman won Mr. and Miss Freshman. Tristan won Mr. Sophomore, and Zoe's name was called just as she reached Miles. A smile came on her face, and she got on stage. By that time, her face had begun to puff up. She had noticed, apparently, because she was touching her face.

Mr. and Miss Junior were two people who's names were ignored, since laughter had begun to erupt at Zoe's face puffing up. Some people laughed, some people were gasping, everyone was talking over Clare.

"Uh-Zoe? Are you okay?" Clare turned to the little sophomore, and Zoe tried to talk. "That...mmph, Shh wa..." Her mouth was completely puffed up and her eyes were almost swollen shut. She tried to run off the stage to go to the bathroom, but she could barely see and tripped and fell on her face. More laughter erupted.

Someone called an ambulance and got Zoe out of there, and Maya was satisfied. The rest of the dance was Zoe-free and drama-free. Maya and Miles laughed and kissed and danced, and Chewy found a pretty girl named Beth to dance with.

At the end of the dance, Chewy gave Miles and Maya a ride home. When they were at Maya's doorstep, Miles' phone rang. It was the hospital.

Miles' face fell and tears started running down his face. No words were spoken but Maya could tell it wasn't good. Was it Zoe? Did they find out that it was Miles and Maya behind her reaction?

Miles hung up his phone.

"Uh..." he tried to formulate words but it seemed impossible.

"My...my dad killed himself this morning. He overdosed on pain pills." Miles choked out, and Maya's jaw dropped. All she could do was hug her boyfriend...
