“Can we hang out tonight?, Please” Alec said and Yolanda felt all her wishes coming true that instant.
Alec just asked her to hang out!
“Like…a date?” She asked shyly.
“Of course, so…
“Yes” she interrupted and he smiled.
“Let me have your number then, I’ll call you” he gave her his phone and she typed her number.
“See ya!” He winked and left.
Yolanda smiled to herself before leaving the class too, she joined the girls at the cafeteria.
“What took you so long?, Don’t tell me you opened a lace tying shop in the class” Rhythm said suspiciously.
“Fresh news” she smiled.
“What’s it” Lotus and Constance asked at the same time.
“Alec asked me out on a date” Yolanda replied.
“OMG my chest!” Constance shouted shockingly.
“Is this a joke?” Rhythm said.
“Joke?, No babe I’m dead serious, that’s why I came late”
“The cellist guy?, You didn’t tell me you like him” Lotus said.
“It’s kinda obvious” Yolanda smiled, grabbing a cup of iced Americano from the table.
“But.. isn’t this weird?” Rhythm said.
“What?” Constance asked.
“I mean…he has never spoken to you but the first time he did,he asked you out on a date?” Rhythm replied.
“You’re just being overly cautious and protective, he has no dark intentions trust me” Yolanda replied.
Alec came into the cafeteria with Colton and Lotus couldn’t help but sense that something isn’t right about him.
“Lotus are you ok?” Constance asked.
“Yolanda don’t go out with him” she replied.
“I don’t support it too” Rhythm said.
“Guys, she’s in love with this guy and this is just one golden chance, she can’t lose it” Constance said and Yolanda smiled.
“Thanks bestie!” She gave Constance a peck.
“Now your bestie because she supported you” Lotus said jealously.
“I love you Lotus” Yolanda winked and Lotus smiled.
Rhythm took a glance at Starr and smiled secretly.
GUYS TABLE**
“The tutor came this morning, my classes starts in the evening, I don’t like her already” Bluey announced.
“Her?” Starr and Martin said.
“She’s a female” Bluey replied, removing the straw from his coffee playfully.
“Really?, Is she pretty?” Starr asked naughtily.
“I didn’t even have time to check her out but I noticed she’s young” Bluey replied .
“What do we do?” Martin said, resting back on his chair.
“I should be asking you guys that question, help me get rid of her as soon as possible” Bluey replied.
“You should attend her class for only today and try to provoke her, it works if she has a nasty temper” Starr said.
“She doesn’t look like someone who’ll get provoked easily” Bluey replied.
“Just do it, she might look calm and be a tickling bomb on the inside” Martin said and Bluey sighed.
“Ok fine”
“But do you have a crush in this school?, I’ve not heard you talking about girls before” Starr said.
“Crush?, Not me” Bluey smiled and Enolla appeared .
She sat beside him and Martin giggled with Starr.
“Baby face” she said and he dropped the straw with him.
“I don’t remember asking you if we can be friends” Bluey replied.
“But we can still be friends don’t you think?, Don’t be a boring guy” Enolla said.
“You might not know but everything about you irritates me, I don’t like you” Bluey stood.
“Why don’t you like me?, I’m pretty, Șëx¥ and…
“You’re not my type so stay off my lane, what you’re dreaming of can never happen” he said curtly and left the cafeteria afterwards.
“Bluey!” She yelled after him, breathing loudly.
Everyone turned to her and she glared evilly before leaving too.
“Dramatic” Starr laughed.
“I’m sure she’s here to frustrate him” Martin said.
*What are you eating?* Starr heard Lotus’s voice in his mind.
He looked over at the girls table and saw her looking at him.
They smiled at each other before looking away.
*Your favorite, what about you?* He replied with his mind too
*I changed taste today, I’m taking pizza* she replied.
*When are you going to the blue house?* He asked.
*After school, but it’s sad I won’t get to spend that time with you* she replied and he smiled.
He has been smiling throughout, making Martin wonder what’s up.
*You’ll be back before 9 right?, I’ll wait at your mansion* Starr replied.
*Give me a tight hug and a deep kiss before I leave* she replied and he smiled more widely.
*Of course, can’t wait*
*You’re mine* she said.
*I’m yours, and I love you* he replied with a chuckle.
“What are you daydreaming about?” Martin asked, jolting him out of his mind communication.
“Huh?”
“Seems you’re lost” Martin replied and Starr pulled his cheeks.
“Hey!” Martin glared and Starr quickly rushed out of the cafeteria.
“Punk” Martin muttered and stood.
He went straight to the girls table.
“Martin” Yolanda looked up and the rest did the same.
“Oh!, Martin!” Lotus smiled and he took her hand.
“Come with me I have something to show you” he smiled and Lotus followed him without hesitation.
“Guys, don’t you smell something?” Constance whispered.
“Martin has a crush on Lotus, it’s clear” Rhythm replied.
“So everyone knows” Constance pouted.
“But Rhythm who’s your crush?, It’s so hard to figure out” Yolanda said.
“I’m not crushing on anyone, I’d rather crush on the piano” Rhythm replied.
“How boring” Constance said.
“You have a crush?” Yolanda smirked.
“No” Constance replied and Rhythm laughed.

“What were you talking to Ophelia and Enolla about earlier?” Colton asked Alec.
Apart from being the best two in the cellists department, they’re close friends .
“Just…some random things” Alec smiled.
“I know you have a crush on Enolla even before she transferred here, but it’s weird that you talked to her on her first day, you told me she snubbed you when you once tried to talk to her in a mall right?” Colton said.
“She did but…. surprisingly she replied me today when i said hi, we’re good friends now” Alec replied.
“And what about Yolanda?” Colton asked.
“I know you like her but she’s not yours yet, right?” Alec replied.
“What do you mean?”
“I’m gonna get closer to her, I’ll help you talk to her since you’re too shy to do it” Alec replied and Colton smiled.
“Really?”
“Yes trust your Bess” Alec said and Colton hugged him.
“You’re the best Colt”

“Wow!!, I never knew a place like this existed in this school” Lotus said in bewilderment, touching every interesting thing as she walked with Martin.
They’re in the school museum.
“I’m glad I brought you then” he smiled.
“But Martin”
“Yes?” He replied and she came closer.
“This place…has no security right?” She whispered and he smiled at her cuteness.
“It has” he replied and her eyes widened.
“Then why are we here?, What if we get caught?”
“You’re really really dumb, it’s a school museum and students are free to enter anytime they want” he said and she hit his shoulder.
“Ouch!” He laughed.
“Stop calling me dumb, I’m a princess” she glared and started walking around again.
“This place is how many years old?” She asked.
“Principal Mackinaw said it has been created since twenty years ago” Martin replied.
“I’m even older than it” she muttered.
“Huh?”
“Nevermind” she replied and suddenly felt his presence behind herself.
She turned back swiftly and truly he’s there.
“What?” She asked, bending back but he pulled her back to himself and made an attempt to kiss her.
Their lips stopped in front of each other and their eyes met.
Martin’s heart is busy throwing a fit in his ribcage.
“Martin…” She whispered and he looked at her tempting lips again before letting her go.
“I’m… sorry” he said in an awkward tone.
“Are you ok?” She asked.
“Of course, let’s leave” he replied.
“But I’ve not finished checking out everything” she said and he took her hand.
“We’ll come back some other time” he said and took her out.
THREE HOURS LATER**
The students can be seen dispersing, each entering his or her car at the park immediately the closing alarm rang.
“This is exactly the same car that Kat just bought yesterday” Enolla said as she saw the car Lotus entered.
“Really?” Ophelia replied.
“Of course, heard it’s worth billions, it’s f_cking expensive” Enolla replied.
“So Lotus is driving the most expensive car in this school?, Unbelievable, who the hell is she?” Ophelia said jealously.
“Should we trail her?” Enolla replied.
They both got in their cars and started following Lotus’s car behind but when they got to an intersection, they suddenly couldn’t see her car anymore.
“Did she vanish or what?” Ophelia said in disappointment.
“f_ck!” Enolla spat.
