| �Sorry to tell you this Michael but you really don�t have a choice,� Kyle Valenti was well on his way to full on gloat at the look of horror and disgust on Michael�s face. �A bet is a bet and boy you are going through with this no matter what.� �Come on guys just look at her she is hopeless there is no way I can ever date her. Look at those pants they�re so baggy that you could fit three of her in them and her hair is so greasy, and she wears no make-up and it would be totally impossible for me to ever even think of dating her I cant even think�� �Hold on there buddy. For starters lay of the baggy pants there is absolutely nothing wrong with them,� Alex looks down at his own pants in a protective manner. �And secondly nobody said that you had to date her. In your own words people only have to think that you like her.� �So you mean that I don�t have to kiss her?� �Not even once.� Michael breathed a sigh of relief and looked over towards Maria. Not for the first time since they had started high school four years prior he noticed her openly drooling at the sight of Brian Woods and his tuna surprise lunch. It may be a little rude but Michael was really happy that Brian never gave Maria the time of day, the though of the two of them creating any offspring was horrible, geeks and nerds should not be allowed to breed it is and injustice to bring any such ugly into the world. And that is exactly what Maria DeLuca was, ugly to the bone. Michael took a deep breath and braced himself to walk over to her and start operation impossible off. He could here the guys talking behind him and the disbelief in their voices that he was actually going to do it. They thought that he was crazy and maybe he was, but he was not one to back out of a bet. He also knew that if he just went up to Maria and asked her out he would get a flat refusal so he would play the game her way. �You know you are never going to make him notice you if you keep gawking at him. Once you stop paying attention to him he will be putty in your hands.� Maria looked away from Brian with a shocked and pissed look at Michael Guerin. �And just who the @#%$ do you think you are? What right do you have telling me anything about how to make Brian notice me?� �Because I am a guy and I know how annoying it is having a stupid chick staring at me all the time.� �Oh and I am so sure you get that all the time.� �I will have you know that I am considered quite the catch.� �Oh yeah and that is why Courtney dumped you like yesterdays news. You�re right you are a real catch.� �Which brings me to the reason I would even damage myself being near you,� if conventional methods cant get him what he wants, resort to lying. �I need you to pretend that you and I are together. Nothing will piss Court off more than me with the nerd and Brian will start to notice you if he thinks that you have moved on.� TBC |
