CINDERELLA AND THE BAD BOYS - CHAPTER 13&14
Shadow took Cinderella to the school clinic.
“How can I help you?” The nurse asked:
“No need, I will attend to her myself; she is very stubborn for you to handle.” Shadow said, smiling at the nurse.
“Stop smiling; you look like a devil, “Cinderella said.
“Only for you,Shadow said.
“You haven’t told me why you are here, and have you been attending this school before?
“That can’t be because none of the students recognize you, “Cinderella said.
“Yes! I have been attending this school before, and none of them can recognize me, “Shadow said.
“How is that possible? Cinderella asked
“I can live as anyone I want, “Shadow said, helping her to return her ankle.
Cinderella pressed her nail on his skin because of the sudden pain.
“Are you okay now?” Shadow asked
“You should have told me before you did that, “Cinderella said.
“If I had, would you have let me do it?” Shadow asked
“But why don’t you do anything that you are allowing her to bully you? This is unlike you, “Shadow said.
“Like you said, this is unlike me; behind everything I do, there is always a reason, “Cinderella said and stood up.
“Can you walk, or should I carry you?” Shadow asked
“Try it, and you will leave the world today, “Cinderella said.
“You have got your sense back, “Shadow said.
“I never lost it, “Cinderella said, walking out. Shadow also followed her.
“Are you going home?” Shadow asked
“No! Not yet, “Cinderella said.
“But why? You are supposed to go home so that you can rest.” Shadow said
“Did I have an accident? Or was my leg broken? Is it my ankle that was sprained, not my whole body?Cinderella said.
“And why are you talking as if we are close?” Cinderella asked
“Are we not?” Shadow asked.
“In what ways? We only met once, and that was when you helped me with those guys,Cinderella said.
“I don’t remember, Shadow said as they entered the class.
Cinderella went to her seat, while Shadow went to seat besides Aaron.
“I didn’t ask you to sit beside me, “Aaron said.
“I don’t need your permission, Shadow said, smiling at Summer, who was staring dagger at her.
“You are still the same, “Shadow thought as he was staring at Summer.
“I h@?? you, “Aaron said.
“The feelings are mutual, baby, “Shadow said.
“Gross, “don’t call me that, “Aaron said.
“You look beautiful, and someone like you is my type, “Shadow said.
“What? Are you gay?”Aaron asked, looking at him weirdly.
“Why are you shouting?” Shadow asked and placed his palm on Aaron’s cheeks.
“You have lost it. Move away from me, “Aaron said, standing up.
Shadow pulled him back, making him seat on his lap.
“What are they doing?” One of the students asked, which attracts everyone’s attention.
“Are they…?”Lovie asked, stuttered as she stared at both Shadow and Aaron.
“No! It’s not what you are thinking, “Aaron said, trying to stand up.
“But Shadow wrapped his hand around him, making everything worse.
“Let go of me. Are you crazy?” Aaron said
“Yes ! I’m crazy for you, “Shadow said.
“I can’t believe this, “Vero said.
Vero is also one of the best students. But someone dangerous because of her silence is something you can’t predict.
She doesn’t talk much; she only observes everyone, but what is inside her is more than dangerous.
Cinderella was busy laughing her lungs out while watching both the Shadow and Aaron dramas.
Everyone ran out when they heard someone shouting.
“R4? Lovie said.
“But what did that girl do?”Another student is going to quit school today, “Vero said.
All of them ran downstairs except Shadow and Cinderella, who were watching everything from the corridor.
Theo moved closer to the girl, kneeling down. He was holding scissors.
“What is he planning to do?” Cinderella asked, looking at him.
“What do you think?” Shadow asked
“Don’t tell me he is going to cut off her hair.” Cinderella asked
“More like that, “Shadow replied.
“No! Why would he do that?”Cinderella said as she was trying to go downstairs when Shadow held her hand.
“Don’t interfere, “he said.
“Why? If none of you can do anything, that doesn’t mean I will be like you guys.
“You guys tolerate them; that’s why they are doing that to you since they know that you guys won’t talk.
“And that’s the difference between me and you guys, “Cinderella said.
”You think none of us are ready to talk? Do you think we enjoy this? You think we all want this?”Shadow asked
“Let go of my hand, “Cinderella said, taking his hand from hers.
“She ran downstairs before Theo would do anything.
“Should I do this by myself or should I call someone to do it?” Theo asked playing with the scissors.
“Please forgive me. Don’t cut my hair. I’m sorry.
“I promise I won’t do anything like that again. Just forgive me this once.” The girl said, pleading with her two hands folded together.
“No second chance; you know the rule for you to do something like that. You must be tired of this school.
“And I will make your wishes simple; after I cut all your hair off, you won’t have any other choice than to leave this school, “Theo said.
“You won’t stop surprising me with your stupid attitude”,Cinderella said behind him.
Theo stood up from the girl and faced Cinderella.
“Just mind your business if you don’t want to replace her, “Theo said.
“What if I don’t mind it and I won’t replace her?” Cinderella asked
Summer was about to sit on a chair when Cinderella took the chair from her making summer stubble
Everyone gasped ,Lovie help summer up.
Cinderella ignored her and sat on the chair
Theo scoffed. “You are really getting on my nerves.” Theo said
Jaxton and Cinderella eyes came into contact with each other.
He flashed her his charming smile.
“What is wrong with him?” Cinderella thought
