Chapter 3 : Retaliation

Angelina's POV

"Tell me I am hallucinating and you didn't just say the words prank war," Asher all but begs.

"Sorry, but not sorry, I did say the exact same words." I confirm.

This draws a variety of reactions. For starters, my beloved twin is opening and closing his mouth like a fish. Rosie and Katie are giving me their disbelieving stare and I am sure if this was a cartoon their eyes would have popped out of their sockets. As for the triplets, Draky boy has a satisfied smirk plastered on his face and Justin is supporting an amused grin while holding an overenthusiastic Noah in his place. I am sure if Justin hadn't been holding him; he would have been bouncing up and down in his seat or would have been running around the whole diner.

Yeah diner, we are all currently at Sunrise diner which has been owned by Chris' family since ages. The diner may be old but Chris' family has maintained it so well that you can hardly find out about it's age. You can only figure out how old it is if told or if you are aware of the difference in modern and old furniture. As for Chris, he has this pensive look on his face.

"Why do you want to have a prank war, can't we just prank him once and get it over with?" Justin asks.

"First tell me, if someone pranks you especially someone you strongly dislike would you retaliate?" I counter.

"Yeah, I would."

"There you have your answer. If he doesn't retaliate, it would be a bonus but the chances that he would retaliate are 99.99%. Therefore, we have to be ready for anything."

"I have always wanted to do a prank war. I really hope he retaliates." Noah says with a dreamy look on his face.

"Trust me, we know it is literally in your bucket list." Drake scoffs.

"You are just jealous you are not as awesome as me, Mr. Grumpy." Noah says, narrowing his eyes while Drake and Justin just shake their heads.

"Great! I also have a bucket list, what things have you included in it?" Katie asks enthusiastically finally finding someone who is interested.

"And now we have lost her." Ash, Chris, Rosie and I say while Draky Boy and Charming say "Now no one can shut him up." Just like that we all start laughing while Goofy and Katie spare us a glare once and then continue their discussion. Some people in the diner glare at us or give us weird looks but who cares?

"Are you enjoying the meal kiddos?" Chris' dad, John asks us.

"Of course John, how can we not enjoy Liz's food?" I answer while Rosie and Katie voice sounds of agreement. As for rest of the dumbasses, they are too busy stuffing their mouths to even acknowledge him. Even Charming doesn't seem that charming right now.

"By the way, why are my daughters not visiting us, are you all too busy to see your old man?" He says mockingly, wiping his non existing tears.

"Love you too John." Ash manages between his wolf bites. I don't know how he isn't the size of a sumo wrestler.

"We will never be too busy for you guys and you are far from old in fact you are more fit than these fatasses." Rosie remarks slapping Ash on the arm.

"Hey excuse you, my ass is perfect and have you seen these muscles? Ladies dig them." Ash says flexing his arm.

"Oh trust me, she finds them pretty good." Katie mutters masking it with a cough. Good for her, only Rosie and I heard her.

"John, can you ask Liz to give our poor Katie her special remedy, she has been having coughing fits since the morning." Rosie asks with mock sympathy and I have to muffle my laughter.

"You don't have to. I will be as good as new by tomorrow." Katie says, trying to hide her desperation.

"It can't be that bad right?" Justin asks skeptically.

"You have no idea," Chris says chuckling."By the way Anne, did you come up with any plan?"

"What is the most important thing for boys?"

"Sex," Drake answers, ever the bad boy.

"Oh my god, you are such a pig! Can't you think of anything except that?" Katie exclaims, our ever the calm girl. She maybe is badass but she never loses her cool....

"What?! I am a teenage guy." He says.

"Shameless D*ckhead," Katie mutters.

"Did someone say anything?" Drake says, mockingly clearing his ear for emphasis.

"I said you are a shameless d*ckhead."

"Well..."

"Drake, enough." Justin says with an air of authority that even I am impressed.

"But.."

"I said enough. And don't even try to argue, you not only offended the girls, but you brought shame on boys as well. What you do and think is your business and I so hope you make it clear to your significant other what your thoughts are, but not everyone agrees with you. For some people, relationship and family are more important. And as for the question princess asked, I would say pride and reputation is the most important thing for almost every human if you consider the people they are close to as exceptions," My respect for Just has increased 10 fold...

The whole diner is silent. Then Katie starts clapping slowly and everyone joins her. And the boy under the spotlight now has pink tint on his cheeks.

"Will you marry me?" A random girl shouts across the diner. And just like that he is as red as Rosie's hair.

As the clapping fades I clear my throat "Charming, the girl that ends up with you would be really lucky and your answer is correct, everyone prizes their reputation and we have to target his."

"And how exactly are we going to do that?" Chris asks.

"Well, I have heard and seen for myself that generally boys get really embarrassed for liking girly things. Something like it makes them seem less manly and that asshole I mean Jacob falls in that category if the way he reacted when I confronted and punched him says anything."

"That was so badass! I was hooting and was about to carry you on my shoulders like the queen you are, but goody here, stopped me." Noah says with a pout.

"Why did you stop him? Jacob would have been even more humiliated," Ash says.

"Please trust me, the only one who would have been humiliated would be princess. You don't want to know things that come out of his mouth when he is excited. It's like the connection between his brain and mouth gets even worse than it already is," Just says with an eye roll.

"You offend me! Is it wrong if I was going to say that her punch was siriusly like the one mione threw at Malfoy or that she was even more badass than dark Betty and vampire Bella combined?" Noah says with a huff.

"You are a Harry Potter, Twilight and Riverdale fan? You will fit right in!" I exclaim.

"Yah! Finally, I have found my people!"

"Oh no, when we finally managed to control his obsession with movies and shows, this happens." Just says palming his head.

"You hate Harry Potter?" Rosie glares, daring him to say yes.

"No I don't but I am not obsessed as well." He explains.

"Guys we are getting off topic. Anne would you kindly continue?" Chris asks.

"Yeah sure, as I was saying, boys like him hate girly things, so we will make people believe he likes girly things, like just say cheesy lines and getting proposed to by a girl." I say with a smirk that could rival Drake's.

"And how would you do that?" Ash asks.

"Leave that to us," Katie and Rosie say, getting my plan.

"Yeah, just make sure to be present there and make fun of him as much as you can."

"That would be a cup of tea for us, Tiger," Drake says.

Tomorrow, school is going to be so fun.

*****

"Everything is perfect but how are we going to execute our plan we are not exactly best friends with Mia." Katie asks. Mia is on the cheer team and let's just say she doesn't believe in long term relationships.

"Mia and Sophia are coming this way, play along." I rush. Sophia is the cheer captain and is best friends with Mia.

"I don't believe you guys." I say just as they are going to reach us.

"You have to believe me, I heard Jacob telling Dasher and Dylan that he likes it when girls propose him, Katie help please." Rosie says. This stops Mia and she in turn stops Sophia.

"I was really shocked but it is true he even said that if the girl proposes him using flowers and cheesy lines in his words 'romantic lines' that would win his heart." Katie plays along. Mia's eyes widen, I can practically hear her gears working.

"And he was saying he doesn't let anyone know about this as he is gets shy about the fact." Rosie says.

"Whatever maybe he likes those things I don't care, let's just go to my locker I need some books." I say walking towards the lockers. When we get to a safe distance from them we burst out laughing.

"This is going to be so good; I just can't wait for Mia to 'propose' him." Katie says still laughing.

"Okay okay now shush, if anyone hears us the plan would flop." I say "And anyways I really have to go to my locker."

*****

"Do you think our plan would really work? I mean, if I know Mia, she would have already had proposed to him," Rosie wonders. Right now it is lunch time and we are sitting at our table.

"It should work, didn't you see her expressions when she heard us, it was like she was already planning." I say.

"And don't forget the fact that since the moment he entered the school she, has been trying to get with him. That was part of the reason we chose her right?" Katie counters.

"What are you lovely ladies talking about?" Noah asks, pulling a chair. I didn't even see the boys coming and speaking of them...

"Where were you guys? Lunch started fifteen minutes ago," I inquire.

"Coach asked all of those who want to try out for football to meet him and give their names."

"Then what were you two doing there? Don't you play basketball?" Katie asks Ash and Chris, stealing the words out of my mouth.

"We just tagged along and then asked our coach about our tryouts," Ash answers, while stealing my fry.

"Don't you dare touch my food," I say, slapping the fry out of his hand.

"Sharing is caring, lil sis," He says, ruffling my hair while trying to stealing another fry.

"Well, good that I don't care about your sorry ass and I am not little," I say, elbowing him.

"Okay, I got it, whatever you say baby sis," Before we can go out full on twin war, Rosie stops us.

"I swear, sometimes you two act like three year olds."

"He is the one who keeps ruffling my hair, knowing it pisses me off and keeps forgetting he is only four minutes older than me," I huff.

"As I always..."

"Shut up, Mia just entered with a huge bouquet," Katie orders.

"You deserve the world and all the good things it has to offer. If I fail to find that world for you, I promise to give you mine! So would you take me as your beloved?" Mia asks Jacob, holding the bouquet for him.

He just stares at her dumbfounded and everyone in the cafeteria is busy controlling their laughter, catcalling or in awe.

"What the hell? Please get up!" He asks her. Did I mention she is on one knee?

"You don't have to pretend that you don't like it. I know you get shy about these things, but you are allowed to like the things you like, what anyone else thinks doesn't matter," She reassures him. He just stares at her like she has grown another head. It sends me and lot of other people off laughing.

"Didn't think you liked giving your balls to the girl Wilson. And Mia, maybe you should court him," Drake says.

The whole cafeteria bursts out laughing but the asshole's stormy blue eyes meet my baby blues and something must have clicked in place, since they are glaring. I just hold up 2 fingers smirking. Anne : 2, Jake : 0. He must have gotten the message, as the glare turns even harsher.

Author's Note

How are you all holding up? I am really sorry for taking so long but I was planning the subsequent chapters. I really hope you all are liking the story so far. Did guys like the prank? And yeah if by any chance I offended anyone just know I wasn't planning too. Though I try my best to choose my words wisely so as to take care of everyone's feelings.

Have a nice day!🙃
