"She got the lead again?" Alec asks looking angrily at Ayden .

"Maybe...?" He replies embarrassed.

"Seriously?!" Alec fumed, "I thought that we both understood that she would not be made the lead actress again. Atleast not after what happened last time!"

"It's was not my fault okay?" He says raising his hands. "It was a decision made by the club. I did not have a say in this!"

"You are the president for crying out loud" Alec groans. "How can you not have a say in it?"

He pauses for a while, now calmer, and says, "You could have just told me, I would have stopped her."

"Oh please" he says making fun of him, "As if she'd listen to you.

She listens to no one," Ayden says smiling, remembering the incidents where Alec had said the same thing and had failed badly at stopping her.

Alec had an idea of where this conversation was going, so he tried to change the subject.

"You know Leia-" but he was cut off by Ayden.

"You act like a possessive boyfriend already." He says smiling. "She is not even dating you yet and you act like this. I wonder what you would do if you guys actually start dating." He says as if talking to himself.

"Well for beginners," he pauses, "I'd have her stop meeting you." He says as he sticks out his tongue.

"You know you can't do that." Ayden says smirking. "Plus, I know you too well. Even if you did have the power, you wouldn't do it." He says confidently.

Alec didn't reply.

"Right?" He asks a little less confident now.

"Of course," he gives an 'As if' look.

"You can't steal my friend you know." Ayden whines.

"I can't hear you." Alec says as he simply puts his hand on his ears.

"Did you say something Ayden?" He says a little louder this time. "Well since you don't have anything to say, I'd better go now. It seems to me that's the drama club still has a lot to work to do. I wouldn't want to be a nuisance." he says as he runs for the door.

He was just about to leave when their drama Teacher stopped him.

"So nice to see you here Alec," she says smiling grimly. "We have so much work to do but we're running a little short on helpers. Most of the members are busy for the preparations." she pauses for a while, "You wouldn't mind helping us, would you?"

Only he knows how badly he wanted to reject the offer to help her, but Mrs. Brown was giving her signature 'don't you dare say no' look which was scary as hell.

He also had to maintain a 'good student' reputation so he had to agree.

"Of course! Why wouldn't I want to help my favorite teacher?" He says smiling awkwardly. "Please lead the way."

"So nice of you to help. You're such a nice kid." She says, as she takes him to the place where a lot of boxes were piled up.

"Yeah, go work Alec." Ayden says laughing.

"You also seem to be free Mr Park, considering that you have the time to make fun of your friend." Mrs. Brown states in a serious tone.

"Come give Alec a hand."
