[OXFORD HIGHSCHOOL]
Loud screams filled the air as Francisco walked,Inside the school was a racetrack,it’s looks like a road or you can call it a road but it’s specialized for race only,

? ANDREW!
? Be ki||ing me!
? Never knew he was this hot and segzy!
? His handsome too!
When the girls eyes caught what he wrote at the back of his jersey,they started screaming his new nickname,
? NEON!
Andrew nicknamed himself that because of it’s meaning,
“That’s bastard!”,Francisco spat,seeing Andrew getting the spotlight annoys him,
Ryan entered with a gun in his hand,he was smiling as he walks,hoping his plan would work
Seeing Francisco and Andrew fighting irritates him and makes him feel bad,the fact that pained him most was how Andrew was flogged by his own father,
He really wants to make things better and probably be friends with them,giving up on Shirley wasn’t easy but has do it
? triple R!
? triple R!
? triple R!
Ryan winked,smile and waved at the girls screaming his name,
? why is he holding a gun?
? For the race,are you that dumb?
After some minutes the students were all seated on the audience seat,the race was about to begin,Shirley and Princess was there too,
A drone was seen in the air,Jacob was controlling it,if the drone should fall,it would fall directly in the middle of Francisco and Andrew,
(For those that forget easily,Jacob is the junior male student from earlier,the one that locked the door)
Ryan who was standing behind them,pulled the trigger of the pistol,sending the bullet to the air,
When Francisco and Andrew heard the gunshot they took off,the drone followed them,but was still hanging in the air,
Francisco was running faster but Andrew was jogging,with a smirk on his face,
“He just made a stupid move”,Andrew said inwardly as he kept jogging,while Francisco was running very fast,
“Shirley is mine”,he said inwardly
Some girls was cheering up for Francisco while some were for Andrew,
Shirley was screaming Andrew name while Princess was screaming Francisco name,
When they were out of sight,the students started viewing them from the plasma TV,all thanks to the drone,
Francisco wasn’t able to run 400 metres when his leg started hurting like hell,he became tired and was breathing heavily,
His legs gave up and he fell on the ground,breathing heavily,he was still laying there when Andrew passed him,he was still jogging,
“Andrew can’t win against me”,he said and stood up,running very fast again,
FEW MINUTES LATER★★
Francisco and Andrew was heading towards the end line,Andrew was still jogging while Francisco was running very fast,
Francisco was very close to the rope that’s was tied between the two ends,when he collapsed on the floor,
“Fransisco!”,Shirley and Princess screamed at once,
Francisco was breathing heavily as Andrew passed him,he pass through the rope too,and it’s cut in ththe process,
Andrew won!
Francisco couldn’t move,his legs failed him
“The winner of the race is Andrew Eliot!”,Ryan said,using a microphone,
“Yes!”,Andrew screamed happily as the students ran to him,chanting his name as if he won medal,
But Shirley and Princess ran to Francisco,
“Francis! Are you okay?”,Shirley asked,with total sincerity beaming in her eyes
“Francis! What happened?,you almost won”,Princess said,but Francisco total gaze was on Shirley,smiling at her with his pale lips,
“Am fine”,he muttered,seeing how worried she is gave him a little torrent of strength,right now,he doesn’t regret loosing to Andrew,the one he wants is with him,
“Even though I loose to him in all the games,I would never loose the last game to him”,he said inwardly,
“You are not fine,you need to go to the infirmary”,Shirley said and he place his right palm on her right cheek,
“I just said am fine”,Francisco said wiping the little tears that was at the corner of her eyes,
Andrew saw Shirley with Francisco and his smile disappeared immediately,he has been looking for her with his eyes,only to find her with Francisco,
He won but the one he wants was with another,how badly that can hurt,
[TWO HOURS LATER>>INFIRMARY]
“I will be back”,Shirley said
“Okay”,Francisco said and she left
Shirley has been with him for the past two hours,and he really enjoyed their moment together,he was laying on a sickbed,the nurse was thru treating him,
Andrew entered
“Congratulations on your winning”,Francisco smirked,you could sense the mockery in his tone,
“Sure,Thanks”,Andrew smiled,but he was very annoyed,
“You can win in all the games,I don’t care anymore”,Francisco said
“Don’t go back on your words,when I finally do”,Andrew said
“Sure,I won’t go back on my words and you too,don’t go back on your words”,Francisco smirked
“Enjoy Shirley’s company for now,because I will surely win all the ten games”,Andrew smirked
“My pleasure”,Francisco smirked
“Thank goodness you are here Andrew”,Ryan said coming in,he came to see Francisco,but he’s gonna used the opportunity to announce the second game
“What’s the second Game?”,Francisco and Andrew asked at the same time,
“Swimming competition”,Ryan said
“How bad,am not good at it”,Francisco smirked
“Sure,am winning again”,Andrew smiled

[EDGAR’S APARTMENT]
Edgar walked towards the door,he was at his gym when he heard a knock on the door,right now he was shirtless,
His hotness was something to die for,his eight packs adding to his hotness,he isn’t that handsome but sure,his hotness covered up for him,
He opened the door revealing Charlotte,
“Been a while you visit”,Edgar said as she walked in,
“You won’t die if you visit me”,she rolled her eyes and he smiled,closing the door,
“You didn’t go to school today?”,she asked
“I came back early,school is yet to be dismiss,I came back home since my class for the day is over”,he said
“Okay,Why are you sweaty?”,she asked
“I was in my gym”,he replied
“You have a gym?”,She asked
“Yes,I used the remaining empty room for that”,Edgar said,
“Okay,can I have a look?”,she asked
“Sure”,he replied,and they walked to the gym
“Woah!”,she said staring at the small room (gym),it’s was small but very beautiful,
“You like it?”,he asked
“Yes do you practice archery?”,she said staring the bow and arrow,
“Not really,but I would teach you if you want”,he said
“Sure,why don’t you teach me”,she said and he took the arrow and bow,he gave it to her and went behind her,
He held her hands from the behind and started teaching her,
No matter how he tried teaching her,she wasn’t still getting it,she missed the whole target!
Fifteen minutes past but still,she was missing the target,
“I don’t think I will be ever be good at this”,she said
“Let’s try one more time”,he said,his right hand held her right hand as she picked another arrow,he was still behind her,
His left hand was holding her left hand too as she insert the arrow into the bow,
“I should teach you how to defend yourself some other time,do you want to learn?”,he asked
“Maybe,but first archery,have always wanted to learn this”,she said
“Okay”,he said
“Now,stare at your target”,he said and she obeyed,
“Don’t allow yourself to be a victim of tension,free your mind and focus”,he said and she was doing exactly as he told her,
“Breath in—“,he said and she did just that
“Breath out”,he said and she breathed out
“Now $h00t”,he said and she released the arrow,
“Yes!”,she screamed when the arrow got stuck on the target,
“Yes,I did it!”,she screamed and almost fall but Edgar was quick to hold her,he held her on her waist,
Her eyes met with his,slowly she looked down to his shirtless body,she felt a lump on her throat as she stared at his perfect eight packs,
She has seen alot of shirtless guys but the feeling she’s getting right now was totally different from the feelings she get when she see a bare chest of a guy,maybe because of a scene in a movie or maybe reality
She could hear the louds thuds which she could swear was derived from her chest,
“Am too segzy,right?”,Edgar winked at her,that’s when her senses returned,
“segzy?,you look like a goat”,she said
“Mmeee!”,he heard a goat bleat in his head
