Rachel wouldn't tell me the plan as 'it would ruin the surprise' seriously she treats me like a baby and doesn't she know what's on the line? Its imperative that I know the plan!!!!!

after hours of begging she told that its taking place at lunch today.

She also told me something like 'break a leg' So she was probably high or something at that time.

so I can't trust that information.

I just hoped for the best and made my way to the cafeteria.

************

I was jittery and Annabeth was unresponsive as usual when I tried to make small talk to ease the tension. I think the most it ever did was generate a few eye rolls from my friends.

Rachel pulled me aside and whispered in my ear, "dude, keep it in your pants for a while the plan is about to start"

She wrinkled her nose. "besides you're disgusting all the theater kids by not even being able to keep a poker face! What will the other's think? 'The great actress Rachel dare's boyfriend can't even act to save his fucking life!!'"

"Sorry for being a normal human!!!!! Besides we are going to break up anyway so what's the big deal?"

"Thats not what they think and unlike you I actually have a reputation to uphold"

"'She's got a bad reputation. She takes the long way home........" I sang

"Oh, fuck off and remember I'm the one doing you a favor here not the other way around"

We sat back at the table and acted like nothing happened. Thankfully we didn't have to wait for long for the breaking up process to begin.

"Rachel, honey!" An unidentifiable but definitely make voice called.

Leo snorted. "What kind of bland and boring nickname is 'honey'? Like are you Winnie the pooh to be so obsessed with honey?"

Which earned a couple of muffled laughter from the others.

"Sam! What are you doing here?" Rachel asked.

"Gee, why would he come to a school where the only person who he knows is is Rachel?" Leo sarcastically said.

Calypso playfully punched him. "You know I should really tape your mouth shut"

Couple other agreed with Calypso but leo's reply was only to Calypso as if he wasn't bothered about the others.

"Then you wouldn't be able to fantasize about these luscious lips"

"Oh sorry, where are they? All I see are two squiggly lines"

Leo was about to reply when piper shushed them and pointed to Rachel who was facing 'sam' with an almost longing look on her face.

I'll admit it again, she is a great actress.

"I missed you, biscuit"

"But how- how are you here? I never even told you that I go here" she said with a wavering voice.

"I will climb mountains for you in comparison this is nothing"

"But why?"

"Pardon"

"Why are you here? Why are you being so good to me while I have only been bad to you? Why are you chasing me when you know it's not possible for us to be together ?"

"Because....." he looked down. "I-I-I love you, honeybun" he stuttered.

Leo mouthed, "winnie the pooh"
