Chapter 11

I woke up by the wonderful smell from downstairs, I completely got drawn by it, making me walk downstairs to see what it is. I saw Lucas cooking in the kitchen, with a blue polka-dot apron. So cute!

He turned to me as I leaned on the counter. "Good morning, sleepyhead."

"G-Good morning.." I look away, blushing slightly. He chuckled, and look back to the pan. I tilted my head to the stove. "What are you cooking?"

"As you can see, I'm making your favorite." He shrugged. I beamed and hang my feet on the counter. "Is it?!"

He chuckled softly. "Yes, it is."

"Hehe." I giggled. "The apron looks good on you." He flinched and suddenly blushed looking away. "It's the only apron you have.."

I snickered, resting my chin on my palms. "Oh really?" This guy can blush! And it's rare!! I'm so lucky today!

He suddenly pushed my face away making me go back down to the floor. "Go and take a shower, you stink!"

"Kehg!!" I quivered then retort back, "I am not!!" I stomped out to the kitchen, to my room, and immediately took a bath.

After a bath I saw Lucas putting down the plates, I took a seat, drooling over my favorite food. If this guy will become a chef I'll hire him with no hesitation!

Lucas took off the apron, hanging it on the door of the pantry, and took a seat. We both clapped our hands and thanked for the food.

Oh! I can now walk with Lucas today!

After breakfast, we cleaned up and took our bags.

"Did you have the keys?" I asked, putting on my shoes.

"Yeah." He replied.

He's always the in-charge of the keys because one day I lost them. But thankfully he had one.

We walk to school as usual but I don't think it's usual, because we always talk about something nonstop until we arrived at school. I feel awkward right now so I decided to start a conversation. I opened my mouth to speak something random but Lucas beat me to it

"Did you study?" He asked. I took a small glance, blinking once. "About what?"

He stopped giving me a don't tell me you forgot to look. I turned to him, with a confused look on my face. "What?"

"Do you know that we have a quiz in science right?" He asked, raising a brow. I blinked again, tilting my head, recalling what the professor said yesterday.

And then it hit me.

"You're kidding me right?" He scoffed.

"Khg.." I cowered down. Why did I forget that?!

I heard Lucas laugh, which makes me mad. "Don't laugh the professor in that subject is terror and if I don't have a good score I don't know what will be the penalty!!"

"Then?" He shrugged. This guy is pissing me off this morning. "What then?!"

My eyes drifted to the clock behind Lucas and we've got 5 minutes remaining to go to school, I instinctively grabbed his wrist and drag him to school.

"Hey--!!" He complained. "What are you hurrying for?!" I don't have time to turn to him, I'm so focused on the road in front. "We're gonna be late!!"

"Huh?" He paused for a moment then suddenly followed my pace.

We arrived at school, almost out of breath, we put on our indoor shoes and walk up the stairs. Gosh! Why is our classroom is in third floor?! Curse you, Kiel's great-granpa!!

I slid the door open, by the time the school bell rings. We both sighed in relief, panting. My knees hurt from the stairs, I staggered to my seat and rested my head on my desk.

Helena walk towards me and said, "Why in a hurry?" I look up to her, huffing. "We're late, so we have to run from the convenience store to here."

"That's a bummer.." She scoffed. I sat up, glaring at her. "This isn't funny, that run was hell!"

"Okay, okay." She put her hands in defedefense won't tease you."

The class started a minute after. And what subject is it? Yes science. Of all the subject in the first period, science is the first!

The professor kept blabbering some questions in 50 items. Luckily I have some knowledge about it, but unfortunately I did not passed in the passing score which is 40. What kind of teacher are you?!

"Oho!" The professor smirked. "Ms. Obelia, what happened to you?!"

"Sir?" I smiled, clenching my fists on my desk. This professor is always pissing me off!

"You got only 29? What a waste, that quiz is so easy yet you didn't pass."

If I can punch this professor, then I would've done it sooner. I just smiled. "I'm sorry sir because I kept studying college math, that I don't even have time to study science." Well, it isn't college, but oh well!

The professor shuddered, but then came back up. "Then if you're too genius to study then you should have known this."

My brows twitched. "So you're saying that I, an Obelia, need to study this petty subject of yours?"

I can see he clenched his fist, crumpling the paper. He just ignored about what I say and said, "Your penalty is to be out of my class in a week, and don't sneak."

"Is that so?" I raised a brow, then stood up. "Then I'll take my leave." Suddenly Lucas raised a hand. "Sir?"

The professor turned, his expression changed. "Yes?"

Ugh.. I hate favoritism..

"Actually I didn't passed also," He said.

Huh?

"What?" The professor said, stunned.

"I have to go outside too." He took his bag and lunged it behind his back. The professor immediately said, "No, no! You'll have a different penalty."

Tch.

"No sir," Lucas said in an aggressive tone, making the professor flinch. "It won't be fair for Athanasia, because she got 29 and I just got 25."

"But--"

"Save you words for your class sir!" I smirked, leaning on the door frame. "Thank you for letting us out for a week!" I walk out happily, I'm free!! Finally!!

Someone ruffled my hair. "You know how to talk back huh?"

I grinned. "What? Are you proud of me?" He suddenly pinched my nose and said, "You've got way more to go."

"Eeeeh?!" I whined. "But, but--"

"Save your words for later." He raised his pace. I pouted at him and followed his pace. "That's my line!"

"As I recall I used this line when I was born." He smirked. I scoffed, rolling my eyes. "Is that your first word as an infant?"

He shrugged. "To be honest, yes." I immediately turned to him, shocked. "I-Is that true?!"

"No." He plainly replied. I stopped, clenching my fists. "C'mere you!!!"

He ran away. "I don't want to~"

"I'm gonna beat the life out of you!!"

"If you can!"

"Yes I will!!"

"Nope, you'll not!!"
