{ LET’S DATE }

NEW YORK « DELIGHT HIGH, HALL*

The hall was already filled with students, teachers present also but there’s nothing going on right now as they all await almighty Noah. His arrival did mean a GO AHEAD before anything did be done.

The setting of the chairs is ten on a row by the right hand and another ten by the left, just few space at the back could be seen and it’s just the seniors in the hall. There’s another hall meant for the juniors.

Murmuring and whispering could be heard and seen not until he entered. Noah, his arrival brought a total silent to the hall. A drop of needle could make a great sound right now.

Noah walked straight to his seat, not with the students nor teachers though. Another seat actually, next to him is another for his girlfriend Violet who seem to be on her way.

“Shall we proceed young master?”Mrs Daphne a young elegant lady asked but he spared no glance nor said a word to her. She returned a smile which he didn’t even see before standing right back at her spot.

Sounds from heels could be heard, no one has to tell who it is cause it’s Violet.

“Baby!”she took the remaining few steps to Noah on a run, hugging him real tight but he didn’t hug her back.

“You should be glad I’m back and not showing this face”she pecked his lip before sitting.

“Welcome”he muttered as he took a quick turn to her then to Mrs Daphne.

“Go on”he said and she walked to the standing mic at the front which made a slight sound immediately she touched it.

“It’s nice to have you all back at the dawn opening for this semester…”she began and they paid attention as she welcomed them all.

“Questions can be asked now, meaningful ones”she smiled after her speech. It took two minutes before a student stood up. Mere looking at her, you’d know she isn’t a scholarship student but a wealthy one.

In Delight High, there’s categories for being rich.

“About Daisy’s death?”she stated.

“And why would you ask about that Ɓîtçh!”Violet questioned with a raised voice before Mrs Daphne could talk.

“I didn’t throw the question to you”the girl said, glaring at her before looking back at Mrs Daphne.

“An answer”she said.

“We took care of it Paris, there’s nothing to worry about”Mrs Daphne said.

“I do worry though so it’s something to worry about”the girl, Paris said.

“She died and there was no ki||er at the scene, wanna present yourself as one?”Noah finally said, standing up.

“Then investigate”Paris said.

“Paris!”Mrs Daphne warned but she gave no $h|t about it. She’s the type of I DON’T CARE GIRL.

“You can do the investigating”Noah said as he began walking away.

“Ask a cop to do it then I can stop bothering”Paris said and sat down. Noah neither stopped nor turned as he left, signifying the end of the gathering.

Students began leaving in the process.

“You should watch out this semester!”Violet who’s already with Paris said.

“I should be saying that”Paris hissed and stood up, leaving her there. Three other girls followed Paris immediately.

“You’re really acting out recently”Molly, one of the girls said.

“I loved the way she asked though, I’m also bothered about who the ki||er is”Polly her twin said.

“And you don’t think she’d be in danger?”Molly snapped.

“And she wasn’t, what’s the big deal!”Polly snapped.

“Can you both stop this endless arguments of yours? We’re in our finals for christ sake!”Zoey the third one said and the twin both eyed each other.

They’re twin but they are the kind of twin who h@ťěs each other than any other thing. Not identical, but anyone could tell they’re twin.

“No much class today, what should we do?”Paris asked as they walked in the class, all seats are arranged individually.

“Where’s Jermaine though?”Zoey asked.

“Looking for me?”Jermaine said by the entrance with a wink and the four laughed as he walked to them. His steps exactly as a girl. He’s a guy but does everything like a girl, the way he talks, walks, eat and dresses with colourful clothes.

“Can you ever change?”Polly said sarcastically.

“Change about what, c’mon”he winked.

“The winking part for me, are you getting a girlfriend or it’s a boyfriend cause you’re already a girl”Paris said with a smile.

“Stop teasing me”he muttered and they laughed again, even his voice is as a girl and he really loves it that way.

“Should we sneak out?”Polly suggested.

“Why don’t we all take a tour round the school for my video. It’d help my IG account”Zoey said.

“Even though I don’t want to but I have to”Paris stood up and Zoey giggled as the five of them walked out.

Zoey’s the fashionista whose lifestyle is all over IG. Molly could be called the funny type along side with Jermaine, while Polly is the silly one who loves taking action first. I could say you know about Paris already, just a bit of tomboy, but I wouldn’t say she’s deep into it.

The five of them have been friends for long and they detect bullying, though they do nothing to go against it since it can’t be helped, neither by them.

NEW YORK « A LARGE BUILDING, AN APARTMENT*

Scarlett screamed in excitement immediately she finished reading the text message she just received on her phone. Her smile knew no bound as it grew wide on her face.

“Finally!”she sang, jumping on the little bed placed on the mere ground.

She picked her phone which she threw in mist of her excitement. Reading it over and over again with a huge smile.

“I’m finally in Daisy, I’m getting it right this time”she muttered, staring at a photo of Daisy on her phone.

“I just wished I never allowed you in there at first, then I’d have you by my side right now”she muttered.

A knock on the door made her drop her phone.

“I’m coming”she shouted.

“You just woke my sleeping daughter”her next room neighbor said with an angry face immediately she opened up.

“I’m so….”

“Pack out if you’re tired!”the neighbor snapped and walked away.

“What the heck!”she shouted.

“Sup babe! Taste my new recipe on this cookies”her bestie Mimi walked up to her. Mimi’s her next neighbor by her right and a friend.

It’s a huge building.

“Off course”Scarlett smiled, welcoming her in.

“Hmmm tasty”

“What’s with the noise earlier?”Mimi asked, also taking a bite.

“Guess”she smiled.

“Spill…. instead!”Mimi tickled her and she laughed.

“Fine……”she screamed while Mimi let go.

“So???”

“I got in!”she screamed.

“Oh my! Come here baby!”Mimi screamed, widening her hands as they hugged.

“I’m so happy for you”Mimi said.

“They should all be ready for me”Scarlett smiled.

“But won’t you be suspected? You’re noticably young”Mimi said.

“It’s nothing, I’m just too young”Scarlett said.

“Sweet”Mimi smiled.

NEXT DAY « DELIGHT HIGH, BRIGHT TEACHERS OFFICE*

In Delight High, five teachers shares a large office.

Scarlett was led in Bright teachers office. That’s the name given to it.

She met two men and two ladies.

“Good morning”she greeted diligently and they all looked at her weirdly.

“A student?”Mrs Daphne.

“No, I’m Miss Scarlett, the new English teacher”she replied.

“You’re way too young”Mrs Daphne said and she smiled.

“I hear that a lot”

“You’re welcome, I’m Mrs Daphne”

“Thanks”she smiled.

“Miss Sasha”the other lady said and she smiled.

“Mr Zion and that’s Mr Jayden, you’re welcome”

“Thanks a lot”she smiled. Walking to the only empty table which seem to be her seat, their eyes was still on her.

“Even Miss Sasha is young but not this young”Mrs Daphne whispered to Mr Zion but she heard.

“She looks like an highschool kid, not even a college one”Mr Zion whispered back.

Mr Jayden stood and walked up to her. He dropped a file loudly on the table and she fling.

“Don’t butt in their businesses, you won’t last long if you do”he said and walked out of the office.

“What was that!”Mrs Daphne gasped.

“He looks scary!”Mr Zion added.

Scarlett looked at the file, opening it, she saw Noah’s photo first.

“Interesting”she muttered.

SPECIAL CLASS, GRADE 12*

The bullies could be seen as they discussed in two and three group. They’re seven in number, including Noah who’s on his headset with eyes closed.

Noah, Violet his girlfriend, Charlotte the quite and sassy tomboy, Avery who’s just as Zoey, a fashionista. Kingsley the playboy, Aiden the quite one, but you know the saying on the quite ones, and finally, Damian, we can call him the pathetic one.

The door opened, revealing the five friends. Five extra seats could be seen in the class.

Last year, just the bullies were given a different class for lectures but seem things changed

“I’m glad your parents decided to grow more in business!”Violet said.

“Yours should grow in sense then”Paris glared at her and she stood but Damian stopped her.

“She gets on my nerves a lot!”Violet yelled as she sat down back.

“Hey Polly! Got a brain surgery?!”Kingsley shouted and she gave him the f-__-k u finger with a blush which he returned.

They all finally sat down, no one talking afterwards.

The setting of the seats is in three rows, so Paris is next to Violet.

It took ten minutes for their first teacher to walk in which is Miss Scarlett.

All eyes on her as she walked to the front of the class, except Noah who isn’t ready to open his eyes.

“You missed your way?”Avery who’s taking photos asked with a confused look.

“No greetings?”Scarlett asked with a smile. “I’m your new English teacher”she added.

“The f-__-k! Are you deaf not to have answered her!”Damian shouted but she kept smiling then he stood up. That was when she stopped smiling.

“We’ll be skipping today’s class then”she said meanly and walked away, same time Noah decided to open his eyes but he didn’t see her.

“Dude did you see that!!”Damian shouted.

“Chill”Kingsley chuckled.

Noah stood up with the aim of going after her while they all tagged along, except Aiden, Paris and Charlotte who stayed back since they could just watch what did happen through their phones.

Scarlett was already in the general class, ready to teach when Noah walked in. He stopped right at the entrance as he admired her @zz since she was backing him.

His gaze didn’t leave her @zz till she turned to face the entrance. Their eyes met in a quick pace cause she looked away. Noah held a huge smirk as he walked to her.

“Are you in this class?…..”Scarlett asked, not with a smile nor frown. “You’re late”she added.

“She has some nasty guts!”Violet who’s beside Noah scoffed.

“You’re causing a commotion and it’s either you leave or I do”she said but he still said nothing, still holding his huge smirk as he stared at her.

“Just remember you’re the one losing not me, I know it all already”she said and picked her stuff, ready to leave.

“I love the shape of your @zz, let’s date”he said straight and she gasped.

Okay, even if she’s pretending not to know who he is right now and what he can do, she never expected this. She’s his teacher!

Even if it’s all fake! She still is.

“Did you just….. did you….”

“I just wooed you, let’s date”he said and she gasped in more shock, slapping him right on his face.

“JEEZZZ” the students screamed with an OH gasp..

* SHE’S DEAD!

*OBVIOUSLY, WHO DOES SHE THINK SHE IS TO DO THAT!

* f-__-k!

*I PITY HER!

Different statement kept popping. Violet was about hitting her back but Noah raised a hand, signifying her to stop.

“Manners! You should learn that instead!”Scarlett snapped, picking her phone lastly as she got ready to leave.

“I’m not giving up yet cause you’re mine cheesecake”he said possessively as she turned, walking past the watching students with a mean smirk.

*HE LET HER GO!

*ALMIGHTY NOAH DID!!!
