Chapter 13
Everything in life is a transaction. At least, that's what Blair's father has always told her. There is no such thing as a self-less good deed and no favor goes unreturned. People were always looking out for what others can do for them.
When Greyson had come to her needing a way to wow Kendall into bed, she took this as an opprotunity to get something for herself. She had been looking for a way that she and Ian can take their secret relationship public. Ian didn't want to be seen dating a
Freshmen pledge until after being his date to informal, it would make more sense.
Blair was waiting in the back corner on the third floor of the library.
"What's up, Blair?" Ian asked when he got to her.
"I have the perfect way for us to come out as a couple!"
"How's that?" he asked
"I'm going to be your date to informal!" Blair replied.
"How will we say that we met for you to become my date? I can't just go with a random
Freshmen even if she is going to be a pledge."
"Greyson James introduced us. I'm best friends with Kendall and everyone knows that he is with Greyson and you're Greyson's best friend. It was only a matter of time that we meet." Blair explained.
"Yeah that would be a good way to explain it."
"One more thing. Greyson is going to find you and try to convice you to take me to informal."
"Why would he do that?"
"He wanted to know some information and I said I'd tell him what he wants to know if he got me a date with you." Blair smirked
"Wow, you're manipulative." Ian grinned. He grabbed both sides of Blair's face and pusehd her up agaisnt the bookshelves as their lips met. After a few good minutes of making out, Ian stepped back.
"I got to go" he said, leaving Blair standing alone in the stack of books.
Ian went straight home after his encounter with Blair. He wanted Greyson to find him so that they could get this over with. Ian didn't have to wait long. Greyson found him outside of their apartment building.
"Hey, I have to talk to you." Greyson said as he ushered Ian into an elevator. "I need you to take Kendall's friend to informal."
Ian couldn't help but laugh after hearing this. The elevator doors opened on their floor and the guys stepped out.
"Which friend is that?" Ian asked as he unlocked his front door.
"Her name is Blair Killian." Greyson responded following Ian inside.
"I've heard of her from the senior girls. They think she's got what it takes to be the top dog."
"I wouldn't disagree."
"You've had a run in with her?" Ian chuckled. "What, is she blackmailing you? You already came out of the closet."
"I wouldn't call it blackmail, just payment for her telling me some useful information."
"Ah, you haven't been able to get Kendall into bed." Ian remarked.
"Let's just say that it takes more than my winning smile and pizza at Tony's to get into his pants." Greyson stated "But I'm looking for just quick fling."
"I know, man. I'm just busting your balls" Ian laughed. "Does Blair plan on pledging a sorority?"
"I would say that I am 100% sure she's going to be a sorority girl."
"Then you have yourself a deal." Ian said as he shook Greyson's hand.
"Thanks man, I owe you." Greyson replied leaving Ian's apartment.
Standing in the hallway, Greyson let out a deep breath and ran his hands through his hair. He had basically just prostituted out his best friend. Ian didn't put up much of a fight though. Maybe, Greyson thought, Ian is happy that he didn't have to worry about finding a date now.
There was just one more thing Greyson had to do.
"Yes?" Blair answered.
"It's done. You've got a date."
Greyson could almost hear Blair smile on the other end of the phone before there was a click and she hung up.

Kendall's POV
"Who was that?" I asked.
Blair had just answered the phone, said 'yes', got a huge smile on her face and hung up.
"It was nothing"
"Must have been something. You look like the damn Cheshsire Cat over there." I laughed
"I just love when a plan comes together." Blair smiled. There was a slight bounce in her step now.
Blair and I were walking through the cafeteria. All of the fraternities had set up tables to let guys know that Rush week was next week.
"Kendall!" a deep voice called.
I looked around and saw Parker Rogers, the fraternity president I met the other night with Greyson, waving me over to his table.
"Hey, Parker" I said walking up with Blair. She got a lot of the other guys' attention at the table.
"Still thinking about rushing?"
"Yeah, I think so." I replied. Parker smiled.
"Here is a flyer with all of our events for the week. Try to come to a majority if you want to join us."
"Okay. Thank you!"
I was interested to see what Rush Week would have in store for me.
