I seriously can't tell how I got to know exactly those words.
He nods, "I will try my best", he leave me at the door as he headed over to the aide's table, leaving me to walk to the royals' table alone.

"How excited are you to learn the heart beat?", Happy asked the moment I walked into the door.
"You can't wait for me to fully enter the room?", I raise an eyebrow at him, "I haven't seen a teacher as eager to teach as you are".
He's always giddy and eager to teach, smiling even though he's not comfortable with Reddy and Blondie's presence during class.
He looks behind me before raising a brow, " where are your bodyguards? ", he still looks at the door as if expecting them to barge in at any time.
I shrug, "they decided not to escort me today despite my pleadings", I took a seat, "they're finally trying to find their other halves".
This is exactly what I was told to say if someone asks me why am not with the males that seems to follow me everywhere I go.
If I think Happy's smile blinding before, the one he's sporting now is more than blinding, "perfect!", he claps, "we can finally have a real magic class without those to breathing down my neck", he visibly shivers as he said those words.
" Yeah!", I said with as much euthuasiasm as I can muster, " bring it on".
Minutes into the so called heart beat magic, and am truly regretting on why I didn't stay back with the two when they asked me.
Being with them in the took is far more better than being here.
"A person's heartbeats beats according to how they feel", Happy closes his eyes, "learning to distinguish between heartbeats takes a lot if time, but when mastered, the wait is worth the time".
Opening his eyes, he places a palm on how chest, " you can also gauge a person's heartbeats with your own heartbeat. This is for those who haven't mastered the act of heartbeat reading".
" Have you been kissed before?",
his question came as a surprise for me, and before I knew it, I answered, "no".
He stayed still for a moment before he shook his head, "you've been kissed four times Buch, you lied".
At my dumbfounded look, he smiles, "this is the act of heartbeat reading, you not only know the person's lying, but you get to know the truth", he points to my heart, " your heart told me what your mouth failed to say".
" This is super awesome", I breathe out in awe, " try that again, I so much dig that!".
He gives me a confused expression, "what are you digging?", he looks at me as if I've lost my mind.
I smile, "it's an Earthen slang", I shrug, "it's nothing like the dig you think I meant".
He slowly nods as if not thoroughly convinced by my words, " do you have a secret crush?", he asked after a moment of deep contemplation.
