"I can't believe this." I crossed my arms and started pouting.

"What do you expect? He's Bennett The Wallet! If he wants something done then it'll get done." Jordan turned around from the front seat to give me an exaggerated look. He was right.. and that's exactly why I'm pouting.

Bennett stayed true to what he said and paid his way out of the hospital. Now I'm extremely flattered he wanted to cuddle me so badly, but his health is more important than some tangled sheets... Wait! That's not what I meant!

I sighed rubbing my forehead, "Yeah true, but he should have stayed and got better first." I glanced up and caught icy blue eyes staring back at me through the rear-view mirror.

"As much as I love hearing you guys talk about me like I'm not here, I think getting to sleep beside you Naomi-" His eyes met mine in the mirror again. "Is greater than my health." He held my gaze before he focused back on the road. "Well it is right now anyways."

"Hey!" I leaned forward and smacked his shoulder. "What's that supposed to mean?"

His chuckle filled the car as he spoke, "It means that if I was ran over, I think I would take the hospital over cuddling you."

"I'm slightly offended but I also want to pat you on the back for your choices."

"Thank you." I rolled my eyes, smiling. It got quiet but then I got an idea! "Hey guys I just remembered something!" I didn't wait for them to say anything before I continued. "When the air is thoroughly chilled and then rapidly heated it causes an explosion! Can we try it?" I looked at them expectantly while holding onto the back of Bennett's seat.

"No."

"Not happening!" I looked at Declan and frowned. "You know I expected Bennett's answer but I expected more from you." I shook my head disappointingly. He just rolled his eyes before pulling his hoodie up and over his head while crossing his arms.

"Just drop me off at my college."

Jordan looked back at me with his head tilted slightly. "Where did you learn that?"

I stared at him blankly before answering him, "Out of all the subjects I thought you'd at least pay attention to science especially when it has to do with explosions!"

"Oh I remember that! I went home and tested it out but it didn't work so I chalked it up to them teaching us another lie." Bennett turned his head and blinked at Jordan when he stopped at a red light, Declan pulled his hoodie back and stared at him strangely, and I.. didn't even bat an eye before commenting on that.

"Jordan, what they teach us isn't a lie- yes they waste our time with things that don't matter rather than teaching us what really matters!" I took a deep breath trying to calm myself.

Jordan scoffed turning back around in his seat, "Yes it is, in history our teacher said that Pocahontas didn't marry John Smith when obviously she did!"

"One, did you even watch the second movie and two, she didn't marry John Smith. She married John Rolfe and traveled to London with him to show what a 'civilized savage' looked like before she died at 22 and right before her husband was to sail back to Virginia. Pocahontas merely just saved John Smith's life before her tribe could kill him, also she was a teenager when that happened and he was an adult, though that wouldn't have mattered back then." I explained from memory.

"Well.. well." He huffed crossing his arms. "Great, the next thing you're going to tell me is that Snow White didn't wake up by true love's kiss." He grumbled.

I sighed sadly, "In the original Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs- which came from the Grimms Fairy Tales, the evil queen disguised herself as a farmer's wife and gave her the apple but Snow White was hesitant so the evil queen cut it in half and bit the non poisonous white side and gave her the red poisonous side." I rambled on. "Snow White ate it eagerly and fell into a coma like dead state, the evil queen thinking she was dead left feeling satisfied. The dwarfs put her in a glass casket thinking she was dead as well, then a prince stumbled upon it and asked the dwarfs what happened? They told him and he ordered his men to take her to her rightful resting place and on the way one of the men carrying her tripped and lost balance, in which he dislodged a piece of the poison apple in her throat, waking her. But then the prince proposes and she says yes though she doesn't even know him or he her!" I huffed breathing heavy.

Declan stared at me weirdly, Bennett was laughing pulling into Declan's campus, and Jordan was staring at me wide eyed and a little.. scared?

"I never realized just how much information you carry around in your head!" Declan blushed for some reason, also trying and failing to adjust his pants slyly. I smirked leaning closer to him, "You have no idea." I bit his jaw before pecking his lips and then smiled like nothing happened. "We're at your campus now! Have a nice day, see you at home!"

He blinked before hurriedly getting out of the car and running towards a big building.

I laughed watching him run but man do those jeans fit him right.

I looked back at the others to see them staring at me. I just shrugged and buckled into the middle seat, "Okay let's go home so I can catch up on My Hero Academia and make mud cookies!"

Bennett turned back around and started driving, muttering something about not enough cold water?.. He can be a weird one sometimes. Jordan just kept staring at me and it was starting to freak me out..

"Jordan are you-"

"Naomi, my whole life has been a lie!" My eyes widened as he started crying.

I went into panic mode and started apologizing, "I'm so sorry! I shouldn't have said anything! Please forgive me! I'm really, really, really-"

He sniffled, rubbing his nose. "I'll forgive you if I can sit with you back there?" I started nodding before he even finished, which probably wasn't a good thing. What if he asked me to lick his foot, EW!

"Hey! That's not fair, you're leaving me for her? It's not even safe doing that while I'm driving!" Bennett was yelling at Jordan as he unbuckled and started crawling through the middle of their seats to get to me. I heard a smack before Jordan got into the seat next to me. He leaned towards Bennett and smirked.

"If you wanted to spank me you should have said something.. daddy." I busted out laughing and caught Bennett's horrified face as I leaned forward clutching my stomach.

"In your dreams Jordan." He muttered after a short silence from his part.

"It's not you I dream about." Jordan slyly looked at me with the corner of his lips curved up.

I all of a sudden became hot, "Hey Bennett, can you turn the ac up please?" He nodded turning it up as we got closer to the house.

"Do I make you feel.. flustered?" Jordan's smile grew into a smirk as he leaned closer. I held my breath as his face was now inches away from my own. I glanced down at his lips before looking up into his green eyes, only to find them fixated on my lips. I licked my bottom lip and watched as his eyes followed the movement. His eyes flicked up to mine while he licked the seam of his lips. I leaned forward to close the gap-

"We're home!" We jumped apart at Bennett's voice.

I hit my head on the door as I jumped back. "Ow!" I started rubbing the back of my head while using my other hand to fix my glasses on my nose.

"Oh sorry Naomi, I didn't know you would react like that to my voice." Bennett looked at me innocently while I scowled at him. He flashed me a smile before getting out. I scowled at his back and started unbuckling.

I reached for my door but it opened before I could do it myself. My eyebrows drew together before Bennett's head ducked down to look at me. He smiled boyishly before turning around and crouching down. I raised an eyebrow at the action.

He glanced back and rolled his eyes when he saw my eyebrow. "Get on my back."

"But your hur-"

"I'm not hurt enough to not give you a piggyback ride, now come on!" He patted his back as if telling me get on with that one movement.

I rolled my eyes getting onto his back, "Fine, but if you get more hurt then it's on you."

"Of course." He flashed me a smile.

I grumbled the whole time it took to walk to the couch. I was ready to get off when Bennett sat down WITH ME STILL ON HIS BACK!

I groaned from the impact. "Get off me you fat baboon!" I dug the hill of my foot into his stomach.

"Ow!" He jumped up and turned to me. A hand holding my foot and a hand gripping his shirt. "You could have asked me to get up. Where have your manners gone?"

I kept my face straight as I spoke, "Out the window with your sense of humor." We stared at each other blankly.

Slowly a grin started spreading across his lips, mine doing the same as his. "Then let's go find them." I didn't know what he meant and just stared at him weirdly while he scooped me up and over his good shoulder.

"Hey!" I looked up and came face to face with Jordan. Bennett didn't stop but hummed. "Where are you taking her?"

"To find my sense of humor and her manners." I rolled my eyes as Jordan's smile grew.

"Can I come with you guys?"

"No."

"Why not?!" Jordan stomped his foot like a child would.

Bennett stopped and glanced back at Jordan, "Because you had her in her closet this morning, it's my turn now." Then he continued to my room.

My eyes widened just as Jordan's did and we both asked at the same time "How do you know about that!?!"

"No one tells Bennett Frazier lies or keeps him in the dark, not even Declan." I could have sworn I felt him laugh a little but I was too in shock to tell if I really did or not.

I met Jordan's wide eyes and muttered "Declan that traitor!" under my breath right before Bennett kicked my bedroom door closed.
