Authors Note: I should call this chapter, to be unpredictable. By the end of it you'll probably be hating all the characters except Patricia and Mara. Actually, maybe even them! Prepare to chose sides, be confused and shocked, Feel completely torn, and feel bad. Oh, and the guys (specially Jerome) are going to be saying some pretty peverted things this chapter. Be warned.
Disclaimer: Do you honestly think I own HOA? I mean seriously, we'd have season 4 by this point! And if I owned PLL, well actually I would've probably done the same thing cause it was brilliant. But I don't own it anyway!
"Guys," Mick said to Jerome and Alfie. "I can't, I don't think I can go through with it. I feel too bad. We can't do this to her."
"Dude, none of us have kissed her. Do you know how much of a loser that makes us look like?" Jerome said.
"We shouldn't be betting money on who can kiss Williamson first." Mick said firmly. "She's a person with feelings."
"Are you sure?" Alfie joked.
"You know you want to feel those lips of hers." Jerome tempted.
"As much as I do, I know it's not right." Mick said.
"Ugh. Well fine, you may as well pay up because if you refuse to play you lose." Jerome spat.
"Fine. I'll play. But of she finds out I'm telling her it was all you two." Mick said.
Suddenly, Alfies eyes widened.
"Well there's Piper!" he cheered. "I'm gonna go say hi."
"Are you crazy?" Jerome scoffed, but Alfie was already halfway to her.
Unfortunately, Patricia beat him to her twin.
"What the hell are you doing here?!" Patricia screamed at her sister.
"I got invited. Duh." Piper said.
"That doesn't mean you should come!"
"Well, I heard Alfie was going to be here."
"For the last time, he has a girlfriend." Patricia groaned.
"I know, I know. We're just friends."
"Ya right. Are you trying to be a slut?"
"I'm just being nice. Unlike you." Piper pushed Patricia out of the way.
Patricia whipped out her phone and called Willow.
"Hello?" Willow said.
"Jenks, you better get your butt down here in something hot cause my sister is about to steal your boyfriend." Patricia warned.
Jerome waltzed on over to Patricia, prepared to win the bet.
"Hellooooo Trixie." He said.
"Ugh." Patricia scoffed putting her drink down and crossing her arms. "There really should be an alarm on you say 'stupids coming' cause frankly I'm sick of seeing you."
"Wow. You seem so excited to party."
"Sorry, it's just..."
"You miss Eddie. I know." Patricia bit her lips, tears forming in her eyes.
"It just isn't fair you know? You finally seem so happy and then everything ruins itself. What did I do wrong?"
"Patricia, you didn't do anything wrong. It was just a bad turn of events."
"No kidding. But next time I'd appreciate it if it could turn on someone else."
"Hey, how's Mara?"
"Better. Much better than me anyway." Jerome smiled slightly.
"You'll bounce back. You always do." This was the perfect moment. Kiss her Clarke! Kiss her! But, for some reason he couldn't bring himself to. For some reason it felt wrong. He didn't normally feel this way. He had no problem kissing Joy or Mara or anyone really. But he couldn't bring himself to kiss Patricia. He couldn't abuse her like that.
"Thanks Jerome." She said with a smile. Then she picked her drink back up and walked away.
"Crap." Jerome muttered. "I think I have a crush on Patricia."
"What was that?" Mick said coming around the corner.
"Did you just listen to our entire conversation?!" Jerome cried.
"You couldn't do it could you. It was wrong. You wanted to kiss her so bad didn't you?"
"Yes, I did. But then I saw the pain-"
"In her blue eyes and couldn't do it to her. I know. I felt the exact same way."
"You know, all these years I've been flirting with her, saying she's hot and whatever, I never got 'that' feeling around her until just now."
"I know. I got it the first time I talked to her a couple says ago. What has she done to us?" Mick whined.
"Same thing she did to Eddie."
"No. No way were going down that path Jerome."
"Uh god now I wanna kiss her more than ever." Jerome moaned.
"How about, how about we both quit the bet and give Alfie the money. He doesn't even have to kiss her. I feel too guilty. I never thought I'd say that."
"Whoa whoa," Jerome said, pointing to the door. "Is that Willow?"
"Whoa." Micks jaw dropped. "She looks almost as good as Williamson."
"Ya. Well, if she came to win Alfie back I don't think it's gonna be too hard."
Alfie saw Jerome get close to kissing Patricia, and he knew that he had to act fast otherwise he would be losing this bet. He looked all over and finally saw Patricia, or at least the girl he THOUGHT was her. See the thing was, he hadnt actually seen what Patricia was wearing, so he had no idea.
"Hey you." he said walking over to her.
"Oh, hi Alfie."
"You look pretty hot."
"Don't you have a girlfriend?"
"What, so I can't compliment you?"
"No, I never said that it's just-" Alfie cut her off pressing his lips against hers. As much as she knew it was wrong, she kissed back. And it as a really good kiss.
"ALFIE!" Willow cried. Alfie broke away instantly.
"Willow?! What, what are you doing here?!" Alfie screeched.
"What, I wasn't invited so you could cheat on me with Piper?!"
"No! Wait, Piper?!"
"ALFIE LEWIS WHY ARE YOU KISSING MY SISTER?!" Patricia cried coming from around the corner.
"I..I..." Alfie stuttered looking at a hurt Willow, a confused Piper, and angry Patricia. "I thought she was you!" he blurted.
"WHAT?!" The three girls all said at once. Alfie gasped. Had he actually just said that?! If she finds out then he's dead meat. Alfie panicked and ran as fast as he could away from the girls.
"Piper!" Patricia cried.
"Look, Trix I swear I didn't mean to kiss back! He practically forced himself on me!" Piper said.
"Ya right? Like you've been forcing yourself on him since you got here?!" Willow said.
"I'm not, I didn't-"
"Save it! I know you fancy him!" Willow screamed. The girls had begun to draw a crowd.
"I'm NOT a boyfriend stealer." Piper crossed her arms.
"No? Well then BACK OFF." Patricia yelled at her sister. "C'mon Willow. Let's get out of here before she decides to kiss someone else's guy."
Piper was hurt. But at the same time, she knew she'd been wrong to kiss back. It just felt so right, and she wasn't going to deny it. If Willow wanted to compete for Alfie then competition is what she'd get.
Jerome saw Patricia just sitting by herself at the bar. He didn't want to admit it, but he'd been spying on he. He saw Willow leave for the bathroom in a pile of tears, and he saw Patricia make her probably 20th cocktail. He decided he should go over and keep her company.
"Trixie." he said, sitting down next to her.
"Hey Jerome."
"So, umm, I saw Willow run off."
"Ya she did. I have no idea where Alfie is either. Long story. But Piper's a slut. Stay away from her." Jerome chuckled at this.
"What happened?"
"Alfie kissed Piper, cause he apparently thought she was me." Jerome froze. This officially had gone too far. He was glad him and Mick had decided to give up.
"What? That's crazy."
"I know. Like, why would he kiss me? He's dating Willow for god sake."
"Well, I mean the myth is you haven't lived until you've kissed Patricia williamson."
"Who started that?"
"Someone who thinks you're a really good kisser?" Patricia chuckled.
"I'm scared to know who that would be."
Jerome couldn't seem to help himself. He knew she was still talking but he wasn't listening anymore. He was focusing on her lips. Before he knew it his lips were on hers. Though it was probably only a 1 second kiss, Jerome thought it was like forever.
"Jerome!" Patricia cried, pushing him off.
"Sorry, I just, I couldn't..."
"Save it." Patricia stormed off to look for Willow or Mara. Jerome was still enchanced. The rumors were a hundred percent true.
"And he kissed you?" Mara asked in shock.
"I didn't kiss back I promise! He's your ex! I'd never do that to you." Patricia promised.
"I know Patty, the funny thing is, I'm not even upset that we broke up. Sure I was at first but now I don't even care."
"That's good. I wish I was as good at moving on as you."
Mara engulfed Patricia in a hug.
"What Jerome and I had wasn't real. What you and Eddie had, and still have, is as real as real can be." Patricia smiled.
"We should probably look for Willow." she realized.
"No, I don't accept your apology!" Willow yelled at Alfie. "You made a bet to kiss Patricia WHILE WE'RE DATING? And you keep flirting with Piper, I don't think kissing her was a mistake." Willow spat.
"Willow, you're over reacting. And anyway, lately I'm not even sure that we are dating. You've been so cold to me for the past couple days." Alfie said.
"So you thought you'd go test out your options and come back and tell me if you wanna break up for sure?"
"We just, we don't get along these days." Alfie said sadly.
"Well, I'll make it easy for you. I'm done. We're done. So who cares if we get along?!"
Before Alfie could respond, Willow stormed off only to run into Mara and Patricia.
"I'm leaving guys." she said.
"What why?" Mara asked.
"I just dumped Alfie, and I'm leaving." she croaked.
"Aww Willow." Patricia hugged her quickly.
"Look, Patricia, you should know, the boys, they made a bet to try and kiss you." Willow admitted.
Authors Note: Stupid way to end it, I know. You're probably all like "What just happened? That was like a whirlwind of WTF!" I agree! I don't even know what I was thinking when I wrote this! But, it was slightly entertaining wasn't it?
First order of business: Sorry, there are just a few things I gotta say. And the first is a good one! Eddie's back next chapter! And it's a two month time skip to before Christmas. You may be wondering "Will Christmas be featured even though it's awkwardly September?" Well, the epilogue takes place on Christmas. So sort of.
Secondly: For English I have to write a creative story, so I've already deciding to base in on a book I read for school (called Navigating Early). You may wonder what the heck it has to do with HOA or FF. Well, the main character in the book is very similar to Eddie, so I figure why not just change the character's names and use the HOA personalities? Then I can post it as a one/two/three shot depending on how long it turns out. I want to have something that's not completely human interaction. Cause I write A LOT of dialogue and I promise you I can do descriptive writing as well.
OMG I'm listening to Heart Attack and it reminds me so much of Peddie! (Now do you understand my username?)
Responses (Once again, amazing reviews!):

hbhs12: ME TOO! OMG JARA AND JEROY ARE BOTH MY SHIPS! Like I can easily ship both! I think everyone hates me now cause I made Jerome kiss Patricia!
DumDum40: Thank you!
Sibuna4260: Eddie will be back next chapter! And prepare to see a new side of him... No one can stop us from writing Peddie! It's our passion. Goood luck! I know how hard starting at a new school is (I did it two years in a row!) But I bet you'll have a good year!
Guest: We are opposites! I just hate Eddie with other girls because I think Patricia should be the only girl he sees. (In my world i'm Patricia, so I don't want my boyfriend looking at other women!) I hope you aren't too mad! I promise you, I will fix it!
bondlikesuperglue: HAHAHAHA I love you! Don't even worry! You know more than everyone else ;)
SilverPebbbles: Aww you are actually a really nice person to say that! But soon we may (or may not) learn that she does have another emotion in her. I love Mick! I think the show just cut him out and was like "NONE OF YOU!" But I still think he's adorable and deserves to be featured! And he will be even more so in the future.
Torispeace: STAHP, you always boost my self-esteem! Peddie next chapter, that's a promise! Oh, and I thought you'd be interested to know that Miss Tai Plosh is joining the Prequel (the chapter I'm writing now) as we speak! And her and Patricia- well, I won't spoil it for you!
Houseofanubislover89: I hope you like him! And you will learn soon that Rufus isn't even the biggest jerk!
Chosen0ne110800: Denby is certainly going to shake things up soon!
