All a Hoax

Chapter 2

"No, Willow! No matter how many times you say it, it won't work." Amelia said with a sigh.

"It's absolutely impossible to make Oliver fall in love with you." She insisted and caught her mistake, her eyes growing wide. "And i'm not implying that you're unlovable or anything, i'm just saying Oliver is not your guy-"

"Don't be silly, Amelia nothing's impossible."

"But let's think about this. He's our enemy, he used to go to Eagle university, he's a bi***- he, he's just Oliver Chavez!"

"No, it won't work!" Amelia cried, trying to convince her friend.

"If you two start to date it would be like ... World War Six!" 

"Don't be so dramatic, Amelia. If ... we were to date, I suppose we'd just bring school unity. I'll be getting what I want and I'll be bringing peace to this school. How great is that?" Willow asked with a grin.

"No, that's not great at all. Who cares about school unity at this point? We already have school unity since the warden kind of solved that fight for us, Willow!"

"Amelia, I have everything under control. I know what I'm doing."

"No you don't." She muttered under her breath and looked at her friend desperately. "Okay, well, you guys have been enemies ever since you two laid eyes on each other. Heck, none of us talked to him ever since the fight. It's going to be weird if you just start talking to him out of the blue. How will you make him fall in love with you?"

"I'll do whatever I have to do to make him fall in love with me." She said coolly as she leaned back in her seat with her arms crossed across her chest. She was done talking about the plan. "Please promise me you'll keep this a secret."

Amelia furrowed her eyebrows and stared at Willow for a long time. She finally gave up and sighed. There was no turning back now.

Willow had made her decision and she was quite the stubborn one.

"I promise but please just don't get into any trouble." She requested with a hopeful grin.

"You're the best." Willow stated happily as she shot up from her seat. "I guess I'll be busy this winter break, huh?" She asked her friend and grinned.

"Wait, is Oliver Chavez staying here for the holidays?" Amelia asked as she stood up.

"Well, considering his father ..." Willow stopped herself and sheepishly met eyes with Amelia. "I don't think he'll want to go back home for the holidays." Willow answered with her voice suddenly low and quiet - almost like a whisper.

"That's right." Amelia said under her breath and felt an awkward atmosphere around them. The Chavez's' were all over the newspaper when the fight ended and almost everybody in the state knew about them. It was a touchy subject to talk about, considering it didn't end well for Oliver Chavez .

"Let's go back to our dorm and just get some rest." Willow suggested

"That sounds very welcome right now." Amelia said with a grin as they started walking out of the library. "So how long is this mission of yours going on for? Have you decided yet?"

"My plan is to try to at least be friends with him by the end of winter break. That'll give me two weeks to become friends with them and hopefully I'll be able to make my first move by the third week in."

"Let's just pray that it works."

"Pray hard."

"Really hard." Amelia sighed and stared at her friend. "I can't believe you're still doing this. There's still time to turn back–"
