"𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐄 𝐓𝐄𝐋𝐋 𝐌𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔'𝐑𝐄 𝐊𝐈𝐃𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐆." Mei said loudly as she jumped up from Sebastian's bed. Ella was plotting to get revenge on her, and she was starting with her party that weekend aka public humiliation.

"I wish I was." He muttered and she ignored him per usual, "Theo just texted me."

"You're going to hate this... but I can't let her get away with it!" She began pacing across the floor, "I need a plan."

"I swear-"

"I need to make a plan that can foil hers. Knowing Ella, she probably wants to make me the bad guy..."

"Seriously."

"Did he at least tell you what her plan was?" She stopped pacing for a second. He looked down at his phone.

"He said, and I quote, 'Sorry, but I don't want to get involved any longer. Hope you two know what to do with this information. Good luck.'"

"So he just dipped!" Mei raised her voice in anger, "Wǒ lēi gè qù!" (What the hell!)

"Calm down. Let's think through this rationally-"

"I don't want to 'think rationally'! I want to fight fire with fire!" She was quiet for a second as she thought, "Oh my god, I know what she's going to do... I am so smart."

"While that might be true, I really don't think you idea is going to be a good one."

"It is a good idea, and I have special jobs for both you and Ezra." When she saw the look on Seb's face she smiled softly and stopped in front of him, "Think of it this way, I'm the brains and you two are the muscle. I need your help. Can you really say no... to me?"

Seb took one look at her face and already knew what his answer was, "I-I can't."

Meili smiled widely and leaned in to kiss him on the cheek making him smile back. She laced her fingers with his then pulled him off the wall, "Ezra! I have a surprise!" Mei sang as she pulled Seb down the hall behind her.

"Yeah what is it... I'm finally watching Gossip Girl." He replied as he came up the stairs, "And I see what the hype is. The only thing is... they keep saying Serena is supposed to be the prettier and more popular one out of the two, but honestly Blair is obviously the better half."

They both stared at him oddly, "O-Okay.. you know Bethany's the one who's into all that stuff, Ez." She paused, "But you're right, Blair is obviously the better half."

(They both break the fourth wall and stare straight at the camera.)

"What are you two doing." Seb asked, making the pair snap out of it.

"Nothing... anyway what did you call me for?" Ezra raised his eyebrows expectingly.

"I have a surprise... well, actually, a job for you." She grinned, "I made a plan."

"If I've learned anything from 9th and 10th grade year... it's that what ever comes after that sentence never ends well."

"Of course in ends well!" Mei defended herself, glancing back at Seb, "At least for me it does..."

"Yeah, because you're smart and know how to get yourself out of situations." He raised an eyebrow, "Remember in 9th grade when you had me sneak into the girl's locker room and put blue dye in that girl's body wash because she accidentally bumped into you in the hall and made you fall? I got in trouble for it and you didn't... and that girl's poor skin was dyed blue for a week." He said as example.

"In my defense, that was Bethany's idea..." She stopped talking when she saw Ezra's face.

"Mei, you know there were dozens of other times."He said and she knew he was right.

"Okay, but here me out... this time it's because someone is plotting against me," She paused, "and can you guess who it is?"

"If it's not Bethany then I'm guessing Ella."

"What do you think she's going to do?" Sebastian asked. He dropped her hand once he realized she was still holding it.

"Ella's smart, but her strengths don't include plotting revenge. So, I'm guessing she's doing the easiest plan she could think up." Mei smirked, "I invited her to my party this weekend and I think she's going to try to ruin it. What if I threw the worst party of the year... that'd cause public humiliation, wouldn't it?" The boys nodded, "She's going to try to sabotage it."

"And... what's your plan?" Ezra asked.

"She'll try to get rid of the music, the food, and the alcohol, so while Theo is making her believe that she is sabotaging me... we'll be behind the scenes with back up... this is the part I don't think you two will like..." Mei trailed off, "She'll try to make me the bad guy, but I want to flip the switch on that. Everyone one will think the party is ruined until we 'save' it. Then jackpot, we're the hero's and she's just the party saboteur."

"Oh my god, I think you are actually an evil queen... the real life Blair Waldorf." Ezra smiled a bit, "The weird part is I actually love it."

"You think you can pull this off?" Sebastian asked her and Mei nodded, "You're right, I don't like it, but if it's the only plan you have to stop her then I guess I'll help you."

Mei glanced between the two boys, smiling.

"Perfect."
