Chapter 4
�Tessa are you coming tomorrow night or no?� Jennifer asked Tess as they made their way to home room. �I can�t� Tess answered. �Why not?� Jennifer asked. �I have to go to Greg�s house and...� Tessa started. �You do have a thing for him don�t you!� Tracy said walking up from behind. �No! It�s a History project!� Tessa groaned.
=====
At lunch she couldn�t find Greg, she wanted to see when their next get together was. She walked into the bathroom and pulled out her cell phone and called Greg�s pager. �Where the heck is that kid!� Tessa groaned and slipped her phone back into her pocket and left the bathroom.
She made her way back to the cafeteria and sat down with her friends. Avril Lavinge�s Complicated started to ring in the circle of friends. �That�s me!� Tessa laughed flipping her phone open. �Hello?� she answered.
�Oh hey Greg!� everyone around her rolled their eyes, she just rolled her eyes back. �Yeah, tonight?� she asked. �Okay, see you then!� she said and turned off the phone.
�Going back to Gregory�s tonight?� Sue asked. �Yeah, so?� Tessa said snottily. �I think he�s kind of cute!� Jennifer said shrugging. �I kind of agree� Tracy laughed. �Well he is, but he�s not up to my standards!� Sue said. �Well good for you! But he makes it easy for me to study, cuz we actually get along!� Tessa said getting up.
=====
�Hey Tess� Greg said opening the front door. �Hi Greg� she said stepping in pushing a wave behind her ear. �Uh listen, I am sorry about the other night! I acted totally stupid!� she said embarrassed.
�Don�t worry about it!� he answered taking her hand and guiding her upstairs to his bedroom. �Do you want something to eat?� he offered. �Um, no thanks� she declined the offer.
�Um, I don�t want Bianca to find out that I come over here, I don�t want o get the reputation of a slut!� Tessa said sitting down on Greg�s bed.
�Well it doesn�t really matter, me and Binks are over, and you aren�t a slut!� he said sitting down next to her. �OK, lets get to work now shall we!� Tessa said standing up and walking over to his computer turning it on.
=====
�Want something to eat Tess?� Greg asked after finishing his third note card. �No!� She almost yelled. Greg stopped and looked up at her. �Greg, you�ve offered me food about 6 times! I don�t want to eat anything!� She said. �Why not? It�s been 3 hours!� Greg said. �Because, I don�t like to eat that much! Your a guy, it�s different for you!� Tessa said rolling her eyes lying down on Greg�s bed again.
�I, I�m sorry!� Greg stuttered, knowing he must have hit a tender spot. �Greg, don�t act all guilty it�s not your fault! But I�m on a diet!� She said closing her eyes and resting. �What kind of diet?� he asked curious. �Does it matter?� she snapped.
�And this is when you turn into the snob!� Greg said getting up.
Her eyes shot open and she looked up at him as he stood above her. �What?� She asked confused. �Your getting all snappy like you don�t even want anything to do with me!� Greg said angrily. She�d never seen Greg upset or anything, it was weird, but she felt bad.
�Greg, I, I�m sorry, that�s not what I mean, I do want something to do with you! I just, I�m a bad person, you probably shouldn�t want anything to do with me!� She said sitting up and looking down at her feet a little.
�Tess� Greg said placing his fore finger under her chin and pushing her face up to his. �Why would you ever say a thing like that?� he asked her leaning down so their faces were level. �Because! It�s true, I�m probably bad for your reputation and what not!� She answered a tear slipping down her cheek.
�Heh, Tess, don�t take this the wrong way, but I don�t think y our hurting my reputation at all!� Greg laughed looking her in the eyes. �Greg still! Once this project is over, we might as well stay away form each other, I�m only going to...� she was cut off by Greg�s soft lips touching hers, and distracting her form her speech.
She wrapped her arms around his neck enjoying every minute of the kiss as he made is more passionate by letting his tongue enter her mouth. Now both were only left wondering, how in the world did this happen?!?!
