Hey guys! My first Bella and the Bulldogs fanfic :) I just think Sawyer and Sophie have much better chemistry than Pepper and Sawyer... any way enjoy! Oh, btw this first chapter is just a start off so pls don't get bored.. I promise it'll be good later on ;)

Troy was making his snarky comments about getting girls... once again. Sawyer watched Sophie shudder in disgust as she walked away with Bella and Pepper.

Troy turned to look at him and Newt. "So who's with me for operation a-choir the ladies?" he grinned at his own little pun. Sawyer thought about his plans for Tex Fest. "Sorry, I'd love to go but I got something way bigger planned," he told him and walked away.

Sawyer grinned in confidence as he walked up to the board to sign for the pepper-eating contest. He was a Texan! There was no way anyone could beat him.

"Sawyer, you're signing up the the hot pepper eating contest?" he heard Bella ask behind him as he signed up. He turned around, "You betcha. I always dreamed of bringing home the flaming-tongue of war."

Out of the blue, Sophie took two steps closer to him, and said "Then I'm going to crush that dream. Into a million. Tiny. Pieces." she said and leaned over to sign under Sawyers name.

Sawyer took a step back, frowning "Why do I get the feeling that this is personal?"

Sophie glowered at him. "Because it is! You know what you did."

A brief memory flashed before Sawyer, remembering he pranked the wrong person and filled Sophies locker with white foam instead of Jeremy.

Sophie took a step closer.

"Paybacks coming at ya, Huggins"

Sawyer also took a step closer, meeting Sophie's death glare with his own.

"Bring it, Delarosa."

Sawyer stormed away as Sophie did in the other direction.

He needed to plan. He knew he and Sophie weren't close, but he did know she was the most dangerous and determined person there was. Finally there came a threat to his victory, and now he needed to beat it.

Or in this case, her.

Sophie leaned a shoulder against her locker munching on peppers, knowing that Sawyer would come this way.

And there he was, with an alarmed look on his face, watching her eat the hot peppers so easily. Or so he thought they were hot peppers.

"Are you eatin'... fire peppers?" Sawyer asked. Bingo Sophie thought. He was falling for her trap now.

"Mmhmm. You do realize that hot pepper eating is a sport right? You gotta train."

"I know!" Sawyer put on his best knowing face. "Can I have another back?" he asked.

Sophie smirked, "Hmm... thats gonna make you cry,"

"The only thing I cry is tears of joy when I win" Sawyer jerked his face at her.

"Okay! It's your tongue's funeral"

She struggled not to burst out lauging when Sawyer sniffed the pepper and scoffed. It was even harder when Sawyer face glistened with tears moments after he popped the pepper in his mouth.

"Joy! Tears of joy!" He pointed at his face, jumping up and down, watching Sophie walk away with a smirk on her face. He immediately threw up the pepper in the trash can near him. What the hell? Damn, Sophie was tougher than he thought. He seriously overestimated this girl.

He was on this 10th one. He was dying. He could see his vision darkening. In the corner of his eye he could still make out Sophie smirking. He glanced over at her.

"Ten! Well I'm gonna eat eleven!" Sophie told him. She watched Sawyer turn back to his plates of peppers in dismay. Part of her thought she was going too hard on him. Sure, the tricks shes played on people in school has been worse, but this was definitely a lot considering what Sawyer did was only an accident.

She shook her head, trying to shake off the thought. Sophie wasn't soft, she was hard. She had to execute her plan.

"Ace? Tell my parents I love 'em. And tell my sister... don't touch my stuff!" She heard him say. She had to admit... going through all of that just so he could beat Sophie gave her a little respect towards him. She admired those competitive people. Again, Sophie tried shaking off her thoughts.

Hard Sophie.

Hearing him munch one last pepper, she put on the evilest smile she could muster and walked over to him,

"Beat... that" Sawyer panted.

"No thanks! I don't eat hot peppers." she stated innocently.

"What?" his voice went high and Sophie had the urge not to giggle. "You've been eating them all week!"

"I gave you a bag of hot peppers. I ate sweet peppers! I just wanted to see your face... bu-buuurrnn."

"You're the black widow!" he accidently put his fands to his face. "Ahhh! My eyes!"

Sophie leaned forward. "Remember that the next time you mess with my locker!"

Sawyer groaned inwardly as he watched her face dance with victory and walk away. She won without even participating in the contest!

And he knew it was revenge.

He was so going to get her.

And he was going to enjoy every moment of her defeated look in her face.

He was gonna watch her burn.
