"Where'd you go?" Noah asked as soon as I got to the table. "And don't lie to me again. I asked the twins about your supposed math worksheet and they said they already have your homework to copy."

Embarrassed, I sat down and avoided eye contact. "I wanted to talk to Kaylee for you."

Noah relaxed. "You didn't have to lie about that. She didn't give you a hard time, did she?"

I shook my head. "She said she would think about it." I added. "Alisha was there so she helped me. She said if we can't come up with ten players, she wouldn't mind being an honorary member."

"Awesome!" Noah shouted. 

We ate our lunch in a much happier mood. 

"Did Jeremy ever text you back?" Noah asked, while munching on chips. 

I frowned. I didn't get a reply last night or this morning. I sighed and pulled out my phone, checking for messages. I froze. I had one. From him! "He did."

"What did he say?" Noah asked, leaning over the table.
