Chapter 7

"So will you explain to me why are we here and not to where you should've taken me to?" I asked Khai as we stopped at nowhere near the ocean.

Suddenly, a phone call caught my attention. It was Norton. Khai made a sign of hands

without opening his mouth. He is telling me to pick up the phone.

I picked it up. "Sam?" Norton said from the other side of the line.

"Yeah, did the game start already?" I pretended to not know what was happening at this moment.

"No Sam. They've postponed it," Norton said.

"Oh!" I said in a perfect tone act on the phone. Khai was beside me smiling and maybe he was so impressed by my acting skill but I know doing this to Norton is wrong.

"Yeah, but you should come. I'll treat you to something more fun than the game," Norton said.

My eyes went wide not knowing what to tell in the next line. I closed my eyes.

"Yeah, I'll come," I said softly and ended the call.

"Wow!" Khai was foolishly clapping his hand. He is annoyed. "Wow, you'd do anything for Norton would you?" Khai clapped once more.

"I don't understand you Khai, you are acting weird," I said. "Norton is my best friend and you should understand that," I explained for him to stop the act. Why does he care anyway?

Without saying a word, he started the car and drove us back. Now we are finally at Costa and I immediately got off as soon as he stopped.

I already got off but Khai was not driving away. I took my steps and went back. The window was open so I can see him in his seat. He was also staring at me.

"Thank you for taking me here, you should go before Norton sees you," I said and went away.

My phone rang again. Norton is calling. "Hey, are you here yet?"

"Yeah," I answered. As soon as I turned my back looking for him. Norton's big body bumped into my head. "Hey!"

"Come on, I have something to show you." Norton pulled my elbow and we enter a nearby cafe.

"Make it two."

We took our orders and sat while we had a long chit-chat.

Norton was asking how my day went through and I couldn't answer honestly. I had to lie or he will know that I had a 2-hour fun drive but not that fun driving with the school's heartthrob.

Monday Morning.

It was already a minute late when I arrived at school. My bike got stuck on my way here so I had to walk from the post. "Shit it's Monday and I'm late."

I run to the building, to the hallway, rushed upstairs, and managed to sneak inside one step right before my teacher.

"Ms. Jacobs!" Mrs. Darthon exclaimed right after she saw me. Gladly it was our P.E on Monday so I was kinda excused.

"Oh, you already got your uniform." I was tossing my joggers in the air when Norton approached.

"Yeah," I answered.

I slid to the girl's fitting room when suddenly, Ariane bumped into me. We were the only ones left in the room so I could not just ignore her.

"So who are you? I haven't seen you in my life," she said putting lipstick around her lips. Eww!

I have been existing in this school for nearly two months and I just cannot believe this girl has not seen a single part of my body. Just wow!

"Yeah, probably. I just got transferred last month."

She looked at me and that way I also turned my head to her attention. Ariane gave me a proper look from head to toe.

"Turn around". I did not know why I was executing her command but it was just my body that acted to turn around as she said it. "Nice." She complimented.

I turned again to look at her. My eyebrows met as I try to understand what just happened. I do not dare to open my mouth to question her. I told you, I will graduate in no trouble in my way.

"Sam! Are you done yet?" Someone shouted outside. I guess Norton had been waiting for me to join the P.E. together.

"Nice catch girl, got one already but I tell you," Ariane warned as she open the door. "Boys will always be boys."

Ariane touched Norton's shoulder seductively. I can see how those hands slowly slide to the big muscles and they even gaze at each other. Ugh! I am here remember? Please at least have some privacy dudes! Get a proper place!

But in the end, Norton was kind of disgusted as he entered the room. "What happened? Done something to you?" Norton worriedly asked.

I shrugged my shoulder and push him outside. "You're in a girl's fitting room dude!"

Norton laughed as he realizes. "Yeah, what the heck!"

Our P.E activities started. It was a mixed activity for all classes and all the students were playing but before everything we had to warm up for ten to fifteen minutes in the oval.

We just got started when coach Lee called for Norton. What happened?

"Be back in a sec, "n excused himself. I had to continue mine as I jog as the last person over everybody running past me.

Ugh! I cannot let anyone see that I am like a loner. So taking a little step to overpass Trexie. I felt like I was a little abusive so I slowed again and let her pass me.

"Thanks," Trexie said as she took louder breaths. Oh gosh, she looks like she's going to faint.

After minutes, some students jog past us teasing Trexie. Normally calling her an ugly pig and no wonder why Kyle Pierce does not leave her alone.

Suddenly, I feel someone is behind us. I turned to look, he was in his cap, I could not recognize him.

"Hi Khai!" Trexie suddenly called trying to work out her cute moves.

Hell no! I jog faster just to move away from them. Do not dare to go near Khai. If the girls will see you. You probably won't last till the next day.

And one more thing, why does Khai seem to be hitting the target? Is the school's heartthrob falling in love with the bully target?

"U- ah." I shrugged my shoulders as my feet feel the dust from the ground.

I turned to look at them both jogging and when I caught up with everybody and try to pass Khai and Trexie, all the teasing was gone. Maybe it was because Khai was there. Cool.

On second thought, I wonder why Norton is not back yet.

After the jog, I sat to where I put my water together with Norton's. We were about to be instructed on the activities when Khai grabbed Norton's water bottle on my seat and drank it.

Damn! Why does he always near me?

"That's not your water," I exclaimed and stood right in front of him.

After his sip, he closed the bottle and put it back in place. Khai looked me in the eye. "Do I look like I care?"

And moved away from past me to his friends.

"Wtf did I just let that moron disrespect me?" I mumbled. There was nothing that I could do. Maybe he was just letting me repay what I did this last weekend like it was my fault that happened.

The dude just let it pass. I wiggled my head ignoring that and put my attention to Mrs. Darthon see explaining the mechanics of the activities.

We were grouped into six and the activity was a ladder drill.

My groupmates were happily executing the drill as I record the time when a fight in the other group caught our attention. Kyle Pierce and Khai are fighting.

All of us draw near them. I can see how much effort their punches and kicks are going through. It is a real fight after all. I thought they were joking but why?

Mrs. Darthon stepped in but the two students seemed to have forgotten they were in school. Well, none of us would dare to step in or they will step on us. No one knows how capable they are. They might break their bones or cut yow head off!

Scary and crazy famous students.

Some of the students were cheering. The famous girls from cheerleading had also come to see what was happening. Kerry crossed her arms and put her sexy body in position. Oh, sexy! But why does she not stop them?

Ah! Another Krazy Kerry!

"What happened? Why are they fighting?" I asked Sherwin who was standing with me in the corner.

"Yeah, Uhm. Big bully was sticking gums to Trexie's hair then suddenly Khai punched him," Sherwin stopped and looked at me.

My jaw dropped. Now I am starting to think about what's going on between Trexie and Khai. I also stare at Sherwin as our eyes met.

"I know right. I'm shocked too but the. Don't know if that reason," Sherwin said.

"Are you thinking what I am thinking?" I smirked giving her an idea.

"Na-uh," she smiled too.

We had to push Trexie in between the fight. "You can stop them!" Sherwin shouted at Trexie.

Of course, Trexie would just stand there trembling. What am I even thinking? I grabbed her collar, I had to pull her out again.

"I'm sorry," I apologized and moved away from her. Don't want others to think I am a friend to the target or I'll be in trouble.

"Sam, what's happening in there?" Norton just came in. We were outside the circle so we could not see the fight that was happening inside the crowd.

"Where were you!" My tone rises.

Norton ignored me and approached the crowd fast. He stepped in and pull out his brother Kyle who almost got ditched up having more injuries than Khai.

"What do you think are you doing!" Norton shouted. He was like a big brother to both of them. Well, that's my boy. But if only, I would suggest Norton just punched both of them to death to learn their lessons.

Then after the fight stopped, Mrs. Darthon came back with the guidance and Mr. Bargoha. But it was too late, Norton had already stopped them.

Ah! What a crazy school!

Kyle and Khai had to be in the guidance office.

My eyeball was pinned at Khai as he walked away. I was running many thoughts in my mind, I did not know he was that kind of man. Then he turned in the same way looking in an exact direction to me. He winked and smirked.

My face deformed like 'what's wrong with you?' Eww!
