CH 9

"Why do I sense a strong negative aura in Kylie for two straight days?" Calista asked. "She even ignored Oliver." She added. Xaviar just laughed. They are currently assigned a task that requires a pair of homework in analyzing the data.

"Maybe because Oli is currently paired with some girl?" Xaviar innocently answered. Calista shakes her head.

"No, Kylie is not that type of person. Especially when it is about academics." Calista defended Kylie. Xaviar just smiled.

'Cute.' He thought.

"Alright, I'll tell you." Xaviar then explained what happened.

Calista burst out laughing at her friend's tantrum.

"So, that's why she was grumpy when I woke up." She said while laughing. Xaviar was mesmerized by her laugh.

'Beautiful.' He blushed. Calista cleared her throat

"Anyway, I think the tantrum will be gone soon." Calista said. Xaviar shot out a question look. " You'll see it later."

At the cafeteria, Calista, Kylie, Malia, and Xaviar are currently eating.

"Hey Cali, where's Xaviar?" Malia asked.

"Dunno, maybe still at the library with some other girl." Calista answered nonchalantly, making Kylie's brows furrowed.

"Oh, now that I think about it, I saw that the girl is wrapping her arms around his, I think." Xaviar added. They all saw how the wooden spoon broke. Calista hid her smirk.

"I wonder if that girl confessed already." She acted like thinking about it.

"Excuse me, I'll be right back." Kylie coldly said and left. They looked at each other and just chuckled.

"Cali, you're really good at testing her patience." Malia smiles.

"Should I test your patience also?" Calista teased. Malia just formed an 'x' using her arms.

"Don't you think teasing her too much will be the cause of their break up?" Xaviar wondered. Calista just shakes her head.

"Those two would die for each other."

"They are obsessed with each other."

"Their parents are already fine with marriage."

All of the comments made Xaviar shiver. "It seems like they are already married though." He concludes. Calista and Malia nodded.

"Ahh, it makes me jealous of their relationship." Malia complains. Calista raised her eyebrows.

"Oh? Why are you complaining when you got back together with the one you swore that you will never get back together with?" She hissed. Malia's cheeks burned red.

"I didn't get back together with him.." She said in a low voice then pokes her index fingers together.

"Really? So how can you explain what I saw this morning when I got here at school then he kissed your forehead and you also closed your eyes while smiling at that moment ?" Malia's face was more flushed when Calista recited every detail.

"Y-you were watching?!" She shrieked. Due to her being flustered, she suddenly ran out of the cafeteria.

"Wow, you just successfully drove both of your friend's crazy." Xaviar applauds. Calista just gestured a thank you bow.

"Shall we head back to the library?" He asked.

"Sure, so we can finish our task."

At the library, Calista and Xaviar can hear Kylie's voice and Oliver's. They are arguing. Calista signaled Xaviar not to interfere and just go inside the library. They worked together to finish it. Asking each other what they do not know.

"Xaviar, what about this?"

"Calista, there's a problem with this data."

"What do you think?"

"No, it's supposed to be like this."

Until they finally say "It's done!" they rejoiced.

Calista and Xaviar finally breathe in peace. Then Xaviar decides to ask her some questions.

"Can I ask some questions I'm curious about you? It's quite awkward that we usually hang out but we don't really have a background with each other, in return, you can ask me too" He proffers. Calista nodded.

"Are you playing mobile legends?"

"Yes, but not as good as you."

" We should play sometimes."

"I stopped playing for a while, I need to pass the exam before playing again."

"I see, just let me know if you're playing again."

"Sure."

The conversation goes on for a long while until Kylie called them out.

"Xaviar, Calista, how long are you two planning on staying there? It's already dark and we still have to eat dinner." Kylie said.

"We will be right there." Calista answered. "Let's pack our stuffs. I think their Love Quarrel just ended" She added. They both laughed. As they walked outside, they have already noticed that Kylie and Oliver are now teasing each other. Xaviar was impressed and looked at Calista. She looked back and gestured an 'I told you' look, he grinned and asked;

"Looks like the cold wars are over?" Kylie and Oliver looked at each other and scratched their head.

"I guess so?/ I think so?" They both replied. They started walking.

"Where's Malia?" Calista asked.

"Malia went ahead, she's with her prince charming." Kylie rolled her eyes while saying that. Calista giggled. Xaviar was amused of Calista's giggle, Oliver who witnessed Xaviar expression made him grinned.

'Hmm…. This is getting interesting.' Oliver thought. As they walked past the school gate, someone abruptidly stopped Xaviar.

"Well, well, if it isn't Childe." A man with almost same height but shorter of 2cm of Oliver.

"Oh, a coincidental meeting, Ryan." Xaviar greeted. Ryan scoffed.

Ryan a.k.a Crey- Inoc esports Jungler. Creepy, Stalker of Xaviar, Prideful.

"I still can't believe that you took a break to get back to school. But, who would've thought that you would go back for romance, eh?" Ryan creepily teased. All of them got goosebumps. Especially Calista when Ryan looked at her.

"So this is the rumored girlfriend that had been circling around like a ring of fire." Ryan was about to reach Calista when Xaviar stepped up and slaps his hand.

"Touch her and I'll break your hand." Xaviar warned. Just then, a car suddenly parked in front with windows down.

"Ryan! That's enough!" Another man called out as he got off the car.

"Tch." Ryan mumbled.

"I'm really sorry for this Viar. I didn't expect this creep would actually come here to make a scene." He apologized then proceed to pinch Ryan's ear.

"O-ouch! Hey!" Ryan screamed in pain. The school's seurity guard was alarmed but Xaviar stopped him.

"It's fine sir, this man almost tried to touch my girl." Xaviar pointed at Calista. "And this man is his guardian, don't worry." He explained. The guard nodded and went back to his post. Ryan was already in the car and Xaviar came closer to the man.

"It's aright Felix, I didn't expect that you would personally escort that creep tho." Xaviar chuckled.

"Well, I'm the captain. It's my responsibility after all." Felix sighed.

Felix- Inoc esports' captain. Close friends of Xaviar in Esports world. Respectful, mindful, friendly.

"Well, it is your responsibility on bothering other players." Xaviar teased.

"If it wasn't for his abilities in playing, I would've kicked him long ago because of his attitude. Our manager would also agree to it." Felix whispered to Xaviar.

"Sometimes, I wndered why we became friends when your teammates are wary of my team." They both laughed.

"I have to go, see you around." Felix bids goodbye and drives the car. Xaviar just waved at him and went back to the three.

"My girl?" Calista asked. Xaviar looked stunned.

"Hmm… My girl, huh?" Kylie smirked.

"Here I thought you went here to study, turns out you went here to flirt with my cousin?" Oliver grinned.

"Ehem. I just blurted out unpreparedly because of Ryan." He nervously answered.

"Whatever you say, my boy." Calista teasingly said and emphasizes the last two words. Xaviar was as red as a tomato. Luckily, it was already dark so they couldn't see his face.

"Let's go already, please." He softly mumbled. Enough for them to hear. The two smiled and Calista just laughed.
