YUGTO 4: Devil's Time [Part III: Schedule]

[Vanilla's POV]

I smiled giddily making them confused. I pulled Brianna back to my side which the girl earlier scoffs in annoyance. "You're making her uncomfortable girl" I stated made her even more furious. Then I felt my head turns to the right when her hand collided with my gorgeous face. Brianna tightens her hold onto me. "I'm okay" I said loud enough for her to hear and she was about to cry.

I rub my cheek, glaring at the girl who slapped me. "That hurts too, nice" I mocked her. She was about to give me another slap when I caught her hand and twisted it behind her back. "Yah! Let me go!" She yelled. I ignored her and glared at the other three. "Try to move at your spot and I won't hesitate to break her elbow" I warned them. I heard nothing so I twisted the girls arm even more.

"Fine. Let her go!" the guy screamed made Brianna flinched at her spot. His voice was too loud for my liking. I glared at him again and twisted the girls arm once more. "You scared Brianna, idiot" I said and pushes the girl back to her group, crying. "Make sure to keep an eye to this girl Kane or else ya'already know what will happen next" another girl warned Brianna. I just rolled my eyes, watching them walk away. I felt Brianna shaking. She's crying again.

"Eh? You're crying though I'm the one who get slapped" I said as a matter of fact. Suddenly, I felt her arms wrapped around my body securely. She was still crying over my chest. "I'm okay~ it didn't hurt me that much" I truthfully said-- Joke! Of course my butt hurts! "It's my f-fault!" Brianna said, crying even more. I even heard the students bad mouthing us again.

"I told you. Brianna can't even protect a friend"

"She can't even fight for herself, duh?"

"Being the heiress of this school can't make her powerful"

"She's useless"

I felt bad for her hearing this shits about her. I lifted her chin up and wipe her tears using my thumb. "Don't mind them. Lets get my schedule?" I suggested, offering my hand. She interlaced our fingers together but lower down her head again when an unknown girl screamed something.

"Brianna Kane? Crying again?" The girl mocked. I was about to faced the girl when Brianna pulled me and leads me to her office. I guess. We entered the room and its also spacious like the student council office. She motioned me to sit on the couch and told me she'll get my schedule.

"Brianna" I called her name out when I noticed a picture frame of 2 girls on her table, one of them is her. "Yes, Vanilla?" Brianna said, holding a piece of paper then walks back to my direction. I eyed the picture frame and she turned to face the spot I was looking at. "Is she your friend?" I asked, walking closer to the frame but even before I touch the frame she blocked my hand away from the frame. "Was my friend" She claimed, wiping the glass of the frame. I nodded my head in response and borrowed my schedule from her.

"Why is all my schedule at night time?" I wondered, checking my schedule. "Hey Brianna, why night time?" I asked her. "I can protect you at that time" She replied, smiling at me. Her reply confuses me but before she can noticed it, I already put my blank face. "I guess? Thanks" I said, unsure again. She nodded her head and handled me a key and another key. "This is for your dorm and this one is for your locker" Brianna explained.

After I put everything inside my backpack, a knock was heard outside. I looked at Brianna and she just smiled at me. I trailed down her movements till she reaches the door and opened it. A girl with pink hair entered the room shyly. "Vanilla, this is Roseanne. She'll be your dorm mate" Brianna told. "I'm Van" I offered a handshake to Ms. pink headed and she shyly shakes my hand back. Brianna smile widely and suddenly pecks me on the cheek. "You're so cute!" She let out an excited squeal then gave me a bear hug. "See you tomorrow night, Moonstones!" She said and sat on her swivel chair.

"Yeah, see you" I replied, somehow confused. I felt an unfamiliar hand, gripping on my arm gently. Of course it was Roseanne. "L-Lets go to our dorm" She said and pulled me out of Brianna's office. We almost skipped the new parking lot when I stop her from walking. "I'll give you a ride to our dorm" I offered while opening the car door for her. She hesitated at first but I already put my hand over her head and lead her inside my car. "Buckle up your seatbelt!" I said while smiling at her. I started the engine and drove off to our dorm. Its not that far from the university and the direction to get there was not even complicated either.

"T-thanks for the r-ride" Roseanne shyly said. I just smiled at her then once we got off my car, she leads me on our way to the dorm. The hallway looks creepy because of its dim lightning. "Here's our dorm" She informed, stopping in front of a red door saying 211. We entered the dorm and I didn't expected that the room is spacious. Nice.

"Hey, Can I ask you some questions?" I asked while placing my backpack on the coffee table. She nodded her head and sat on the couch beside me. "Is Brianna your friend?" I asked then she automatically shakes her head. "She doesn't have one" She replied, staring at my eyes. "Why is that?" I throw another question. "She can't keep a friend" She answered shortly yet straight to the point. I got confused by that but decided not to asks her more question. I smiled at her and let out a faked yawn.

"You should rest now, Vanilla" She said, smiling at me. She leads me to our room and helps me with my bags. Her bed was on the right and mine was obviously on the left. I thank her and I started to unpacked. "Ahm, Van?" suddenly she called out my name. I just hum in response and continued unpacking. "Please stay away from her" She requested. I turned to face her with my narrowed eyebrows. "She'll just leave you in the end" She finished her statement and smiled at me weakly then leaves me alone and confused.

"Brianna will leave me in the end?" I repeated Roseanne's last words, letting out a huge sigh. I let my body fell on the bed. "What did she meant by that?" I asked myself, feeling my eyes slowly closing on its own. "I hope tomorrow will be a good day" I prayed silently before zoning off to sleep.
