Jillessa Heronstairs: You have a long way to go to find out who MysteriousDude is ;) Sorry I'm evil MUWHAHAHA. So I can't steal your word, but you can steal TessaElsaHerondale's threats?

MagicMissy: by the Angel, I want to fan girl over Will now XD waiting is tough.


I was trying to catch anyone spying on me when Jem and Will sat down across me on the grass in the courtyard. I turned to face them quickly. "Why are you so jumpy today?" Will asked before taking a bite from his chicken sandwich.

"Why are you so annoying?" I countered back.

"The right question is why am I so charming?" Jem and I sighed at Will at the same time. Jem caught me eye and grinned.

I smiled for the first time since MysteriousDude's last email. I noticed that Sophie and Cecily weren't with Jem and Will. I asked where they were. Jem replied, "Sophie is studying and Cecily has detention."

Will looked at me sympathetically. "Even when her head isn't in a book, she has no idea what is happening in the world," he stated. I glared and hit his head. "Ouch! Are there no limits to you after the insults?"

I smirked. "With you, never." Jem laughed. We ate our food in silence before I noticed a guy leaning against the entrance from the school to the courtyard. He had dark hair swept over his forehead and eyes, but I could tell he was looking at us. He looked mysterious.

MysteriousDude.

I found myself standing up. Jem and Will looked at me in confusion. I ignored their gazes and walked over to the guy. He noticed me coming. He titled his head as if confused though I could see that the tips of his mouth was turned upwards as if I amused him. I'll give him a show alright. I reached him and put my hands on my hips. I glare at him and stares back, amusement and curiosity in his eyes.

"Can I help you?" He finally asked.

"Yeah. It's not nice to stare," I replied coldly.

He looked me up and down. "But it is nice to stare at something even nicer," he responded, smirking.

I clenched my teeth and I found myself in the mood to punch someone. "Stop sending me emails."

The curiosity and amusement was drained out of his eyes as confusion replaced them. "What?"

"You heard me."

"Issac!" I turned around to see Will and Jem walking over. "What's up man?"

"I am not sure," he replied to Will. I noticed how he seemed so focus on Will as he tapped his fingers anxiously against his jeans. I glanced at Jem to see him staring at the guy, Issac, as if felt guilty about something he did to Issac. "This chick" -he titled his head at me and I scowled- "is mad for some reason."

"Maybe you stole her book? God gave her books instead of true love and you know how girls act if someone steals their boyfriends." I scowled at Will who just winked.

"Actually I stole your book," Issac said. "It's in my locker."

"What book?" Will said frowning.

"French."

Realization dawned on his face. "Screw you man!" he exclaimed to Issac. He pretended to be mad, but he was smiling. "My french teacher nearly ate me when I told her I didn't have it."

"Doesn't Mrs. Summer wants to eat everyone anyway?" Will grinned at Issac.

He turned to us and announced, "I'm going with Issac here to get my book. See you guys later." Just like that, he walked away with Issac.

"Okay.."

"Tessa?" Jem asked.

"Yeah?"

"Why were you so mad at Issac?" he inquired. I froze. For a minute, I considered telling Jem about MysteriousDude because he would be kind unlike Will. The next minute, I decided not to. It wasn't fair to drag Jem into my problem when I always keep on going to him for advice or help. I should give him a break.

"I thought he was checking me out. I was wrong, he came for Will," I said making an excuse up. Jem nodded, believing me which I was glad for. I noticed that Jem still looked guilty. I wanted to ask him about Issac, but I held myself back.

After all, we have all have our secrets.


Me: Hmm. Why is Jem guilty? Is Issac MysteriousDude?

Mortmain: IT'S ME.

Me: Shut up! YOU'RE DEAD ANYWAY! *pushes him out of the room*

Tessa: TELL ME WHO IT IS.

Me: No *pushes her out of the room* anyway, please review. Byee! xoxo
