Elena pov
When classes started again, I couldn’t help but sneak a few glances at Oscar. But then I turned my attention to Mr. John, who was talking about locations on a map.
I couldn’t understand everything or anything he was teaching because Oscar was there and his presence was distracting me.
It seems like Isabella was trying hard to get Oscar’s attention, but he didn’t seem interested at all.
“Why does it matter to me though!”
I wondered to myself as I tried to focus on Mr. John’s instead of Oscar’s but I couldn’t help it, just staring at him gave me goosebumps.
“Miss Elena, I do hope you are listening?” I looked up at Mr. John who was staring at me with a worried face.
“Yes I certainly am sir”
“If you say so. I just hope you don’t get distracted by other things” he said and I knew exactly what he was referring to.
It turned out he had seen me staring too much at Oscar. Of course, he should be worried; I am his best student after all.
When the class ended, I remembered I was still in possession of his bracelet and so, I checked through my bag. When I found it, I looked up to see Tisha already flirting with Oscar
That girl knew no shame.
Tisha was popular for being the school slut because she literally slept with most boys at our High School but not just most of the boys, I mean all the hottest boys in school.
There were also rumors that she once had a one-night stand with Principal Witterman. I wouldn’t blame her if it was true, because Principal Witterman was one of the handsome yet youngest principals I have ever met.
“Excuse me” I stated, noticing the scowl on Tisha’s face immediately.
“What do you want?” Their reply was surprisingly synched together with Tisha laughing afterwards and placing her hand flirtatiously on his chest.
“I… umm. think you dropped this the other day” I showed the bracelet to Oscar
He snatched it from my hand and wore it back almost immediately and left with Tisha by his side. He didn’t even muster a thank you
The way Oscar reacted made me realize that most of the hottest guys ever being talked about were naturally rude and proud.
Oscar P. O. V
I had that instinct that someone was staring at me, but I couldn’t conclude who was just sitting and staring at me so I just focused on what Mr. Johns was saying.
Upon turning around, I noticed it was the girl I had saved from the alley.
I’m trying to recall her name, but I can’t seem to remember it at the moment.
Why was she staring at me though? I didn’t like the idea of seeing people being bullied and seeing her at the alley in such a vulnerable position, I knew I had to save her by all means.
Upon noticing that I was also staring at her back, she quickly shifted her gaze in a pretense of seeing what Mr. Johns was saying.
She’s an interesting girl, that’s for sure.
Class finished a few minutes later, but I had to stay behind and quickly update my note as it was one of the essential reasons why I had started this goddamned school anyways.
As I was trying to update my notes Tisha came to me and started to talk.
Am not the type that enjoys talking to slots but she was beautiful so I couldn’t just ignore her like that.
As we spoke, I saw the girl I helped from the other night approaching me and I didn’t want to talk to her because I made it clear to her the other night never to talk to me.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Excuse me,” she said and I felt irritated already as I looked at her and said, “What do you want?” I asked; alone side with Tisha, who was looking at her angrily, I couldn’t help but smile as we said the same word together.
“I guess you dropped these the other night,” the girl said as she handed over my bracelet to me, I quickly snatched it and put it on as she left.
I and Tisha kept on talking as she left so I just used the opportunity to ask for the girl’s name again as Tisha was about to leave.
“Elena; That’s her name,” Tisha said as she stood up to leave.
I just nodded and said bye.
As I continued to update my note, I heard a commotion from the direction of the cafeteria and I quickly rushed out to check what it was.
Yes, you can simply say I love dramas, I was born and I live for the drama.
I gasped in shock, seeing the same numskull I had warned from touching the Elena girl, manhandling her, and I had to simply approach them and stop them before the issue escalated.
“Look who we have here, Mr. Ass kicker who thinks he can beat up his fellow dude” I rolled my eyes in annoyance at the remark made by Blake the leader of his gang and I couldn’t care less about anything he says.
Hell, everything about this dude irritates me, from his accent to his posture and even the stupid minions that accompanied him.
“I will say this once and I won’t repeat myself. Get your slimy self out of this place before I shove your teeth down your throat” I threatened with my usual calm demeanour.
“I said it y’all, there is no way in hell that Mr. Ass Kicker would not threaten me,” He said to his minions, who kept on laughing like clowns that they were.
I didn’t want to waste time in the cafeteria so I approached Elena and helped her off the floor.
I could tell that she was taken aback when I helped her again, but it didn’t bother me.
I was just lending a hand because I had my principles to follow. And I hated it when I saw guys bully ladies.
Blake tried to snatch her away from my grip, but I was quick to react by grabbing his other hand, luring him closer to me, and headbutting him in the process.
Everyone in the cafeteria had some sort of reaction on their face and I wasn’t surprised, that’s what I do to idiots who believe that all they can do is bully.
I held Elena and aided her out of the cafeteria.
