The New Couple In Class

The Girl got a boyfriend!

That boring, foul-mouth who could not talk to anyone more than a minute without making them mad has gotten herself a lover!

Moreover, they were acting all lovey-dovey right in front of the school gate!

And what is the "You are beautiful!" part? Don't you feel embarrassed?

Now that we are thinking about it. Maybe that girl feels no such thing as embarrassment.

Murmur suddenly appears around the couple.

Some sounded like they were envious, some were indifferent, some were filled with a weird mixture of feeling.

The one who was always at the bottom of the school suddenly started attaining happiness while many of those who considered themselves to be 'above' her are still struggling with their daily lives.

The scene struck a big hit in the mentality of the crowd, especially those who looked down on The Girl.

The couple pay no attention to the words. They just keep their eyes forward and keep on walking, hand in hand.

"How is homework?" Heading to class, The Boy asked.

"So so. I got them all finish but left out a few difficult ones." As The Girl was answering the question, she noticed a difference in the way that she spoke.

Rather than the consistent speed she always said, she tumbles a little between words.

Her palms are definitely a little hotter than usual, so there are some sweats forming in the small gap of the fingers.

The same thing can be said to the guy as well.

"Me too. I always leave out the hardest ones. Not that I can't solve them, just no need to do it."

The Girl nods.

"If it is okay with you, how about we walk home together? I would also like to know where you live just in case." He made a proposal.

"It's good. Knowing where I live surely will be better for any future events. But I'd like to know where you live too, though."

"I'll send you an address later. Just know that I'd rather coming to your house than vice versa."

Hearing an odd remark, she tilts her head: "And why is that?"

The Boy stops for a second, seemingly organizing his words.

"I just think that it's better for me to come to you. You are still a girl afterall. I wouldn't want something bad to happen to my girlfriend."

How many times already that her mind goes blank because of him?

The more they spend their time together, the more emotions she feels.

"Thanks. I really appreciate."

Her inside is just brimmed with happiness that she has never really gotten before.

"You know, many people have been looking at us. From the gate to our class corridor, they seem to be very suprised."

"It is because you are with me. Remember that I used to be isolated by everyone in the school."

The Boy's hand grips a bit tighter.

"I'm here now."

Her smile goes straight into his eyes, embeds itself into the back of his brain.

"I know. Ah. We're here. Let's go in."

"Yeah. Let's go in."

News spreads like fire. By the time the two arrived at their seats, almost everyone in the class has heard about the event at the school gate.

The other students in the class are looking at them in awe. They would have never thought of someone like The Girl being in a relationship.

"Hey, we heard about what happended at the school gate."

The person sitting right next to him asks.

"Are you really going out with...um...her?"

A little hesitant, the person continues.

"Yes I am. Why did you ask?"

"No reason. But you know she is being left out by everyone, right."

"I did not know that. Well, I do now. But not before meeting her."

"Oh okay. So you didn't know about her...circumstances?"

"Not at all."

Right when the person is about to continue, the homeroom teacher comes into class.

The class rep immediately stands up and says: "Stand up. Bow. Good morning, Ma'am." Everyone follows the instructions.

Standing on the podium, the female homeroom teacher quickly spread her gaze through the whole classroom. It slows down at a certain angle and then continue to the rest of the class.

"Good morning boys and girls and everyone else, please sit down."

She stops for a second for the students to settle and continues.

"We know it has been quite a special morning to certain students. We know that you guys are at your age and the school does not forbid you to do it. Even so, try to keep the voice down. That is all that I have to say. No need to shout your confession first thing in the morning."

There are snickers right after the teacher's comments.

"Suits you."

"Acting happy and all."

The teacher ears twitch. She then speaks in a different voice. Much firmer and louder.

"Silence. I heard that. Get yourself a lover and you can do the same thing."

"Ugh." The snickering stops.

"Okay. Now that is over. I'm gonna take your attendance."

A few minutes passed, and for some reason, the teacher sighs.

"Good. Our class is full. Let's discuss the agenda for this week. Class rep?"

"Yes, Ma'am."

The class rep stands up. She takes out a small notepad from her pocket and reads them out loud.

"We're trying to maintain our attendance at 100% this week. Last week because of a member of our class got sick so we couldn't achieve full marks for that. Also, we will try to be more punctual. The discipline teacher has not caught anyone from our class being late and we want to keep it that way. Our students have been doing their home studies deligently so suprise quizes will not be a problem. With this, we hope to get the 'Best classroom of the week' prize."

"Very well. I have nothing to add. Just keep continue doing your best and you guys can get the money prize."

"Thank you, Ma'am."

The rep sits down. She always has an aura of dignity around her. Although she is not the student with the highest grades, she is certainly among the best. The relationship between her and the rest of the class is good and everyone depends on her. In short, she is trustworthy.

"Next is my part. Maybe you guys have already seen the news, but there is a possible dangerous individual lurking in our neighborhood near the school. This person is suspected to have caused harm to several people and is still on the loose."

The faces in class go pale. They heard about the news, but they did not care for it. And now the teacher is talking about the case.

"Please, I know this is scary. However, the school is working closely with the security department and the police officers to find this individual. I am hear to tell you that if you get caught up with a police officer asking you for details you should cooperate. That is all."

There is a big commotion right aftef the morning annoucement. The same thing happens in all the school in the near area.

"By the way, the good news is that you guys can have the last period off to go home earlier than usual until further notice."

The homeroom teacher casual says.

Thanks to that,...

"OH YEAH!"

"WHOOHOO!!"

"I'm gonna play more video games!!"

Parmesan: Hi guys. Parmesan here. This is the first time ever that I have written something in English rather than my mothertongue so the first thing I would like to say is Thank you for reading until this point and I apologize for any mistake that I made. I first intended for this to be extremely short because I had no experience in doing something like this. But after typing for a while the world just grew bigger and bigger in my head. So rather than making a nice wholesome couple novel I have put in different elements, too. It is going to get more interesting from this point forward.

If you like my work or even me as a person (b-baka ////) please consider like and subscribe to pewdiepie. Wait that's not it. Anyway from this point it will have actions and more. I eat compliments to live so please feed me.
