What The Luck!?

"So did she ask Louis to sit with her at lunch or something?"

"No"

"Then she asked him for help at lunch?"

"No again"

"Then she was carrying something heavy and looked like she needed help?"

"And a big fat no."

The three tried to see if there was really a reason why Louis would be going out of his way to repay such a tiny gesture to another girl in their class. It was even harder to imagine he would abandon his cousin since they grew up together as siblings.

"Weird" The three chimed in unison.

"YUP." Sammy threw her head in her arms tired of the whole situation. She had wasted the first ten minutes of the lunch trying to get him out of his own head and to go to the roof to eat with the others like the other day.

"Well then let's go see what this Erin girl says. She's in our class right? It's a shame we haven't been properly introduced, since we will be in the same class for the rest of our stay in high school." Asher stood up and tossed his trash out. He started to head toward the door with the cafeteria in his mind as the destination.

The others sat for a minute not sure if they should follow him before all jumping up and joining. They were interested too, not to mention Sammy hated being ditched and wanted to set him straight.

When the group entered the cafeteria there was a stunning difference at one of the tables compared to the others. The table in question was completely devoid of anyone sitting at it but for one single black haired girl. She was eating her lunch while ten boys stood around her watching. One such boy was Louis, who would normally be as far away from other people as possible to avoid any shocks.

"Yo Louis what's up? Why aren't you eating with us today?" Asher took the lead role in this and went right up to him.

"Huh? Oh, I am just helping Erin out with anything she needs. I owe her that." Louis turned away and put his eyes back on Erin who had stopped mid bite when Asher came up.

The other boys looked like they expected her to say something but instead she returned to chewing her food. "Ah so you're Erin. I'm Asher. We are in the same class."

The introduction was short and sweet and seemed to get her attention. Erin took a napkin and wiped her lips. She placed her fork down and gave a look to Asher. "I'm so glad you came to help me out too. I really appreciate your assistance." Asher was captivated by her words but he had an annoying feeling.

"Yea I can-" He stepped forward wanting to ask if there was anything he could do to help her but realized his foot hurt. "Oh, dang I stubbed my toe on the table leg. "Sorry about that, I actually came to figure out why Louis and well...I guess the others are waiting here to help you?"

Erin just blinked a few times as her face showed shifting emotions. 'Why didn't my power work just now? Shouldn't he be compelled to help me after I asked him?' Trying again she spoke to Asher with a little more force, " You know, I have Lou helping me here and I REALLY could use another hand."

Asher was about to step forward again and offer his hand to Erin when a passing student bumped him in the back with their lunch tray as they rushed by. "Hey, watch out." A yelled sorry came from the student that bumped him.

"I guess I can help but you have so many people here with you, actually, why are you the only one sitting and eating? Shouldn't all your friends be sitting with you and eating too?" Asher was still lost on what was going on, however Sammy had heard every word and burst in.

"Louis hates being called Lou, it's his least favorite nickname right next to sparky." She yelled this a little louder causing Louis's hand to twitch a little before he stepped back.

"I told you not to call me that! Why do you have to be so mean!" He retorted immediately but then looked around realizing he had made it to the cafeteria. "Whoa...when did I get here? Good thing I am starving. You guys want to go eat?"

Erin just looked on unable to come up with anything to do. 'Two people slipping my control? I thought my spellbinding speech was supposed to make people compelled to do what I wanted or needed? How could it fail?' Unable to take this unknown anymore Erin stood up and faced Sammy, "Why are you all not doing what I want? My super power should be making you do what In say!" The incredibly whiny tone of voice she used was extremely unattractive.

'Spoiled brat' This was the only thought in all of their heads. With her tone changed the boys looked around and realized they had made it to lunch and that they were nearly out of time to eat. Some were stuck on how they got there while others just ran to get some food. Every single one of Erin's helpers had left here high and dry.

"Wait, your super power?" Jane heard this right and knew exactly the meaning behind it. "Your power lets you make people do what you want doesn't it? That's so…" She didn't have the proper words for it and ended up shaking her head disapprovingly.

"Come on, Let's go get a table and eat with Stanley for the last few minutes. This one looks too dirty." Sammy was red faced and angry but chose to take the high road. There was no point in arguing with this spoiled brat. 'Now you don't have anyone to be your attendants. But if you ever mess around again I will snap everyone out of it.' She made herself this promise as she ran to Louis who had just paid for his lunch.
