Eres Academy :School of The Royal and The Rich

sorry for the late ud online classes kept me busy anyways enjoy;)

Third Person's POV                  (Yess this is something new I just want my readers to also see the story through anothers eyes)

"Open up!" Ram banged the dorm door for the 15th time. The door slightly opened. Dylan peeked his head and eyed Ram "Y-your highness." He bowed. "HAHAHA don't act too formal Dylan, we're not  at the palace so I don't need to call you Prince Dylan of Greece. Now where's Kile?!" Ram squeezed himself through the door and entered Kile and Dylan's room.

"Shh! He's sleeping." Dylan shushed. Ram ignored it and went straight to Kile's room and found him sleeping on his king sized bed hugging a pillow. "RISE AND SHINE SLEEPING BEAUTY!" he cheerfully said although it's already night.

"Dylan!" Kile complained in his deep sleepy voice. "I told you not to let him in." He hid his head under his pillow.

"I had no choice, He was about to break the door." Dylan apologized. Ram jumped on Kile's bed and pulled the pillow away from him. "C'mon lets have dinner, I'm hungry!" Kile grabbed his pillow and pushed Ram out of the bed making him fall on his butt. "OUCH!"

Dylan laughed while watching them from the door. "I already had dinner." Kile buried his head under his other pillow. "But I haven't yet!" Ram complained and shook Kile's back to wake him up.

"Damn it Ram! Just go with Blake."

"I don't know where he is."

Kile faced Ram and raised his eyebrow. "He's your roommate."

"I didn't see him at the dorm, C'mon, training makes me hungry!" Ram pleaded. Kile looked up to Ram who obviously looked fresh from the shower, he then glanced at the clock by the wall of his room. 7:30 PM.

"Please your royal sleepiness." Ram pouted. Kile rolled his eyes and threw a pillow at him. "YEY! I knew you couldn't resist me HAHAHA!" Ram jumped with joy knowing that he can finally eat dinner and left the room. Kile grunted and left for the shower. After he showered he and Ram road in Ram's car and left for the square.

"Sorry I can't come, something came up." Kile talked to his phone. "Just call a meeting instead and discuss about it, I'll elaborate the other details next week." He ended the call.

Ram kept glancing at the time on his watch.

"You're leaving campus again?" Kile asked.

Ram nodded. "I'll leave tomorrow morning, the west gate won't have that much knights by then."

Kile kept silent. Ram laughed. "Don't worry, I'll be back in time for training, we can't let the Knights of Excalibur beat us this year." Excalibur Academy is the school of the knights located in Hawk Ridge.

Kile chuckled and changed the topic. "How'd you get into our building?"

"Dude, I'm a royal lest you forgot." Ram used an olden accent which made him laugh at himself. "Weirdo." Kile whispered and pulled out his phone to text someone.

"I HEARD THAT!"

"For heaven's sake tone it down Ram!"

"Alright, alright." Ram focused on the road. "Hey." Ram frowned.

"Isn't that Blake's motorbike?"

Kile lifted his head from the phone screen and turned to where Ram was pointing. He was right, Blake's motorbike was parked at the front of a building.

"What's it doing at the front of the girls dormitory?" Ram wondered.

"Park under that tree."

Ram smiled. "Woo! I love spying, I think I just lost my appetite." The car stopped under the tree and the two Princes looked out their window to spy on their friend.

"I don't see Bl-WOAHH." Ram exclaimed and pointed to his window. Kile looked at what he was pertaining to.

Ram immediately took off his seatbelt. Kile frowned. "What are you doing?"

Ram innocently smiled and opened his car door.

Kile frowned. "Ram!" He tried to pull him back in but he already hopped off the car and started to cross the street. Kile smacked his face.

Paige

Blake parked his motorbike at my dorm's parking lot. I immediately got off and walked away without saying goodbye. He's really ruining my day. Why did he have to still make me ride with him when I could go with Aiden?! I stopped walking when I heard footsteps behind me. I turned around and saw Blake.

"Are you really trying to piss me off?!"

He rolled his eyes. "If yes so what?"

I scoffed. "If you won't leave me now, I'm going to think that you're a stalker."

"What?" He eyes me with disgust and laughed. "I never stalk, I don't stalk even the prettiest girls in this school, why would I stalk you?"

"Whatever." I rolled my eyes. "If you don't leave, I'm going to do something you won't like." I'm going to punch him, he's been like this ever since the punishment, always dragging me around ,following wherever I go. It's no better than when he was bullying me.

He asked. "Like?"

"LIKE?! YOU LIKE EACHOTHER?! BRO I SWEAR I HEARD LIKE!"

Blake and I got startled by the loud voice from behind the tree. We turned to it and found Ram looking like he's just been given some candy.

"Ram!" Kile appeared walking hurriedly from the other side of the road.

Ram waved at Kile. "I believe they like each other now, Confirmed. Our Blake's not gay." Kile stood beside Ram and smacked his head.

"Ouch!" Ram glared at Kile and rubbed his head.

"What are you two doing here?!" Blake scolded them.

Ram looked to me then to Blake. "We should be asking you the same question, what are you doing here?"

Blake scoffed. "That's none of your business."

"Wait." Ram started to think. "Did you decide to move to the girls dorm without telling us?" He covered his mouth using his two hands looking shocked.

"Idiot." Blake murmured. He faced me. "Get inside puppy."

I rolled my eyes at him and smiled at Ram, I was about to smile at Kile but he was busy texting on his phone. I went inside the building. I got shocked when Shari greeted upon my entrance to our dorm.

"I saw Ram outside at the parking lot!" she squealed. I forgot that she has a crush on Ram.

I chuckled. "Why didn't you approach him?"

She threw herself at the sofa. "I'm shy okay, I mean he's a prince and I'm just a billionaire's daughter." She sighed.

"What?" I scrunched my forehead. "You can be friends with whomever you want, I mean I talk to almost everybody." I laughed.

"I wish I had your confidence." She hugged a pillow and started daydreaming about Ram.

I giggled seeing her like this then I wondered. "Where's Aicko?" I looked around, she wasn't here.

"She got called by the student council, they have an urgent meeting ordered by the council president so she told me to hang out here since you'd be alone."

I nodded. I left Shari in the couch and I took a quick shower and dressed in my comfortable loose clothes. I went back to Shari and we watched a movie with some cookies and chips on the side. After an hour, Aicko arrived looking exhausted but she still managed to join us in our movie night.

All this reminds me of me and my girls back home, having movie marathons on weekend nights, I miss them so much, but I'm glad I've found new ones right here.

I woke up and found myself curled up in the couch. I opened my eyes wider and saw Shari fast asleep on the other couch and Aicko sound asleep on the floor. Shit! We must've fallen asleep while watching a movie. I rubbed my eyes and stood up.

I shaked Aicko to wake up since she's on the floor. She opened her eyes, I thought she was already awake but instead she went to the sofa where I was laying down on a while ago and went back to sleep. Sleepyheads.

I turned to the wall clock. It's just 8:30 AM. I let Aicko and Shari sleep some more and decided to start cooking breakfast. I fried some eggs and some sausages. After a while Shari woke up and helped me make some waffles. We allowed Aicko to sleep some more since she's been tired from her student council meeting last night.

When Shari and I finished cooking, she brought the food to the table while I poured some fresh fruits into a bowl and brought it to the table. We started to eat.

I plan on just relaxing the whole day, maybe pull out a book, sleep in or maybe bake a new recipe. I better make the most out of the weekend because I'll be extra busy next week, we're going to have half of the day filled with hectic classes and the other half would be training since the tournament's the week after.

I went to the bathroom and took a shower, I wore a White loose T-shirt and bleached denim shorts then I tied my hair up in a loose bun then I jumped in my bed and fixed my eyes on my book.

Shari left to her dorm after we ate breakfast and Aicko's still sound asleep, she's such a heavy sleeper. After a while of reading I decided to call Mom. I reached for my phone and my eyes widened when I saw my inbox.

17 Missed Calls from Guidance office.

What the hell?!

My eyes widened when I checked my messages.

20 Messages from Guidance office.

From: Guidance Office.

It's a weekend you should be with Mr.Carlisle

From: Guidance Office

Ms. Bennet, I know you're in your dorm room's bedroom, please abide to the punishment.

From: Guidance Office

I will not have any choice but extend the punishment if the school holograms doesn't detect the both of you together by noon.

Shit!

There were many more other texts but I got the message. I checked the time, it was already 11 AM. It's a good thing that I've already showered. I went to my contact list and found Blake's number. He hasn't texted me about anything today.

Does that mean that I have to text him? Oh no I won't text him, I'll just wait till he texts me first. But what if he doesn't?! What if the clock strikes noon and our punishment would extend?! Fine I'll do it!

To: Jerk

Hey are we going to do today?

Shit! Erase erase.

To: Jerk

Hey! What's the plan?

I clicked send button and waited, but he didn't reply. I grunted.

To:Jerk

If you don't answer, our punishment's going to extend for another week!

Still no reply. "Ugh!" I pulled the strands of my hair with frustration.

I have no other choice but to call him. God I hate this!

I felt hesitant to click the call button and my fingers started shaking, I pressed it.

It rang for a few minutes. I was starting to think that he wouldn't pick up when a muffled voice sounded. I cleared my throat and brought my ear closer to the phone. "B-Blake?"

"Paige! I knew it! Hey Dylan you owe me 24 Carat gold HAHAHA!" Ram's voice echoed from my phone making me pull away a bit. "Whats up?! Dylan and I were betting, he bet that Lucy's the one calling, I bet you and I'm right! PUAHAHHAA!"

who's Lucy? I wondered then I remembered the reason why I called.

"Hey Ram can I uh-"

"Wait lemme guess, you wanna speak with Blake." He sounded so sure.

"Yeah uhm can I talk to him? It's quite urgent."

"Why?" Ram questioned. "Are you guys going to plan a secret date?"

"What? No!"

He laughed. "Anyways Blakey Wakey's sound asleep, and I stole his phone last night, thank God he was so sleepy that he didn't have time to chase me around."

Oh so he's asleep, that explains it. "Is that so? Well then I can you please tell him that we've still got a punishment to abide too?"

"Ooof you know Paige, I'd love to do that but that would be a death wish, no one disturbs Blake Carlisle from his beauty sleep." He laughed. "But since I'm a great friend I will cross the boundaries and wake him up for you." I could imagine him winking from the other side of the line.

"Oh thanks a lot Ram." I smiled.

"But." He continued. "It's also best if you come here to us if you guys wanna catch the time."

He has a point. "Ok, I could go to your dorm."

"Oops actually were not at the dorm, were at our villa by the beachside hehe."

"Oh, is it far from here?"

"Not if you take a car, I'll send you the location." Ram said.

"Ok! Thanks Ram." I ended the call and rushed to get my shoes and a string bag. I met Aicko outside my room. She had her eyes glued to her power point hologram, probably for the student council while she was sipping tea on one hand.

"Where are you going?" She brought her eyes up from her work.

I rushed to the fridge and drank a glass of water. "I've got a punishment to abide." I pointed to the door.

She laughed. "Good luck!"

I smiled and checked the time. Shit! 20 minutes to 12. I rushed to the door and texted Aiden.

To: Ugly

Hey can I hitch a ride?

From: Ugly

Sure, I'll pick you up and good morning to you too 😊

I chuckled while I rode the elevator going to the ground floor.

From: Ugly

I'm at the convenience store, I'll pick you up in 5

Convenience store? He's probably been jogging.

To: Ugly

No it's ok, I'll go there instead.

It'll be faster and I also need the exercise duh!

I brought my phone back inside my pocket and walked out the building to the convenience store. I could see it a few blocks away so I made a run for it. I started to run when I accidently bumped someone by the side. I tripped on his foot. "Shit!" I exclaimed.

I suddenly felt strong arms on my waist stopping me from hitting the ground. "Watch where you're going." The low familiar voice said. I stood up and gained my balance. "Sorry your highness." I sarcastically said and did a sloppy curtsy.

Kile laughed at me. Wow! he laughs now. "Whatever I rolled my eyes." I checked the time and my eyes widened. "Ok I got to go see ya around your highness!" I turned my back on him and ran going to the convenience store.

I kept walking hurriedly since many people flooded the streets. I tilted my head a bit to my side and my eyes widened when I saw Kile walking behind me.

"Are you following me?" I asked him while I kept on walking.

He raised his eyebrow. "What do you think?"

I rolled my eyes and spotted Aiden's car, Ice. Parked infront of the convenience store. I peeked inside and saw him in the counter probably paying something. I turned around and Kile was still there behind me. I stood beside Aiden's car and stepped backwards as Kile took a step towards me. I kept taking a step backward and he took another one forward.

"What are you doing?" I hissed at him.

He didn't answer and kept coming closer to me. I swallowed hard and kept taking steps backwards until I felt a car's side mirror on my back. Kile was now only a few inches away from my face.

"Stay back!" I warned him.

He chuckled and moved his face closer to mine. What is he going to do?! Please don't do what I think you're going to do!

"Excuse me." He said.

I scrunched my forehead. "W-what?"

"I said excuse me." He chuckled. "Your standing in the way." He pointed to the car behind me.

I invisibly face palmed myself. It's his car that's parked beside Aiden's. Paige! What were you thinking?!

I stepped away in embarrassment. Before I could say another word, Aiden came out from the store and we both rode in Ice, his car. My cheeks turned red of embarrassment Ugh!

"Where should I take you?" Aiden asked.

I turned to him. He was wearing a grey jacket and shorts. I was right, he's been jogging. "Here." I showed him the location.

"You wanna go to a villa?" He asked me.

"Is that what is is?" I frowned. What would Blake and Ram be doing there?

I leaned back in the seat trying to make myself chill. I've got 10 minutes till noon I can do this! Instead I focused on my window, Suddenly something in the rear mirror view caught my eye. There behind us was Kile's car. Is he following me?! Wait Paige, don't assume!

Aiden knew that I was in a hurry so he sped fast. I tired to fall asleep but my attention subconsciously kept looking at the side mirror. Kile's car kept tailing us. I rolled my eyes, I played some music on Aiden's car and kept my attention to it.

"Were here." Aiden pulled the brake. He stopped the car infront of a pathway leading to a grand villa deeper inside the woods, I could also see the beachside on the other side of the trees.

I sat up straight and fixed my things, I eyed the side mirror again, Kile's car is nowhere to be seen. I hid my smile. "Bye! Thanks for the ride ugly." I smiled at Aiden and went down the car.

He didn't seem happy to leave me here but he didn't say anything. "Anything for you Peggy!" He smiled back and drove off.

I looked at the grand pathway going to the villa. I opened my phone to text Blake.

"Beep! Beep!" I jumped to the side of the road when I heard a loud honk of a car. A silver sports car came and parked itself infront of me. Anger boiled up inside me.

Kile opened the door and came outside raising an eyebrow at me. "Do you have a death wish?"

What is he talking about? "Excuse me?! You were the one who was about to hit me!" I exclaimed.

He placed his hands in his short pockets. "You were the one standing in the middle of the road."

"Whatever." I'm running out of time. "I don't know what you're doing here but you should stop following me." I hissed at him.,

He didn't say anything so I walked towards Villa instead and he silently followed me. What a stalker! I walked swiftly towards the grand villa that I couldn't anymore describe it's beautiful structure, and this Stalking Prince is still behind me. Ugh!

"Stop following me!"

He didn't stop walking. "I'm not following you."

I rolled my eyes and continued walking. Suddenly a loud bark filled the yard and a tall skinny Black dog came running towards me, gnarling it's sharp teeth at me. "Ahhh!" I shouted and turned around. I got shocked when my ankle twisted and I fell on the ground.

I heard the footsteps of the dog coming closer and it's growling became louder. I shut my eyes.

"Down Buster!" Kile commanded.

I opened my eyes and saw the dog sitting down while Kile patted it's head.

He turned to me hiding his smirk. "C'mon ."

I nodded a bit disoriented. I stood up and tried to hide my limp as I walked. I must've sprained my ankle. I eyed the dog. It looked like it wanted to shred my skin to pieces but it couldn't. Kile was already at the door to the Villa while I was still steps behind because of my annoying ankle.

He turned to me and looked down at my ankle. "What?" I frowned.

He didn't say anything and walked towards me. My eyes widened when I felt his arms around my waist and he placed my other arm over his shoulder supporting me walk.

"Why did you run, are you afraid of dogs?" He asked.

"No I'm not!" I lied. "Who wouldn't be frightened by a dog that big?"

He tried to hide his chuckle but because of our position, I heard it.

We entered the main doors, with Buster, the dog tailing us. The villa looked huge, with a brown black and white colors, modernized staircase, glass walls revealing the pool and the beach on the otherside. Kile sat me down on the large couch and left to the kitchen.

This place must be Blake's and his friend's Villa. Why did it only sink into me now?! How come Kile didn't ask why I was here? Maybe he already knew? I peeked at my watch. It was exactly 12:01. I exhaled. Buster sat in the corner and we had a starring contest. He obviously doesn't like me.

Suddenly I heard a door open. "Ram! Wh-Shit!"

I turned to where the voice came from and my eyes widened when I saw Blake. His hair was fresh from the shower and he was half naked revealing his abs, all he had was a towel rapped around his waist. "Ahh!" I turned away from him. Why did just I see that?!

"Why do you walk around naked?! Get a shirt!"

"I'm in my house for heaven's sake." Blake said in his deep voice trying to hide his surprise.

"What's wrong?" Ram came running downstairs. He seemed shocked to see me here but his expression changed when he realized the situation he burst out laughing. "Blake are you flexing your abs now?!"

"Shut up!" Blake glared at him and walked quickly to his room. I kept my head away from his. He's so rude!

"He's gone now." Ram sat beside me still laughing. "Now you've seen Papa Blake's abs now tell me, how's the view?"

I frowned at him and hit his lap. Buster growled at me.

"Buster!" Ram scolded. "I see you've met my dog."

"Oh so he's your dog." Thanks to him I now have a sprained ankle. My eyes widened when I felt something very cold touch my ankle. I turned to it and saw Kile holding an ice pack pressing it to my ankle.

"You don't really have to do that." I tried pushing him away.

He raised an eyebrow at me. "Then do it yourself." He handed me the ice pack and sat down on the other side of the couch.

Blake came down with a black v neck T-shirt and shorts. "Why are you here?" He seemed mad about my presence. Didn't Ram tell him that I was coming?!

"You forgot our punishment." I crossed my arms. "We're supposed to be together even on weekends.

"Seriously?!" Blake said in frustration. As if I wanna spend my weekend with him either. Heck no!

Ram offered that we play billiards in their underground man cave.

Blake was about to hesitate but Ram pulled him to the basement. I just followed them and Kile walked behind me. Their man cave was a huge floor underneath the Villa, it has a bowling area, some billiard tables and there were many more games. It was air conditioned and it had dim lights.

I saw a few maids cleaning around the area but they left quickly when we entered. Maybe they weren't allowed to be seen. The whole man cave had a boyish touch except for the small corner on the left side, it had a small white fancy couch set. It made me curious but I didn't mind it.

The four of us stood infront of one of the Billiard tables. Ram handed me a pole. It had the initial B on it's side. "Do you know how to play?"

I gave him a smile. I don't have a problem playing billiards, Aiden and I started playing billiards back when we were 9 so it's in my field of expertise.

Ram went first, then Blake last Kile. They were all good. It was my turn. I held the pole I angled myself.

"Boys?" one of the maids called. We all faced her.

"Lunch time," She glanced at me and gave me a soft smile. I gave it back. "You guys aren't going to eat?" I asked them. I'm honestly hungry.

"You go." Blake said and took my pole from me. He obviously still wants to play. Wait am I allowed to eat here too?

"We'll follow." Ram assured me.

I tried to hesitate. "Actually I-"

"I'll eat with you." Kile immediately said.

Blake faced him and raised his eyebrow. Ram stayed focused on playing.

Before I could say anything else, Kile left the man cave and headed to the dinning and I followed.

The dinning's huge, from the looks of it, it could fit 30 people inside. The maid's prepared some fancy food served on the table. I took a seat and Kile sat across me. I sat down ready to eat when someone pulled a chair beside me.

Blake sat down and a maid served him his plate. Ram sat beside Kile.

I rolled my eyes and started eating, because I'm REALLY HUNGRY!

Kile watched me as I ate, so I became conscious of my actions. I looked up at him and glared. "What are you looking at?!"

"You've got soup around your mouth." He quickly said and looked back at his plate.

My eyes widened and I immediately searched for a table napkin.

I turned to Blake and found him starring at me. "And what are you looking at?!" I eyed him.

"Disgusting." He whispered and went back to eating.

I frowned again and Ram giggled and handed me a table napkin, I wiped my mouth using it.

I continued eating while the three boys just talked and laughed together about Ram's jokes.

"And Why did the fish refuse to play basketball?" Ram said while laughing.

"Why?" I asked. Blake and Kile just raised their eyebrow.

"BECAUSE IT WAS AFRAID OF THE NET HAHAHAHA!" Ram burst out laughing.

Blake faked a cough, but I was sure that he tried to hide his amusement. A little smiled formed on the corner of Kile's lips.

It's obvious, Ram is the clown of the group. "Tell you what Paige." Ram said still giggling.

I faced him.

"You should visit here more often."

I smiled.

After we ate Ram looked at his watch. "Ok, I'm out!" He said and stood up, he ran upstairs and came back down with a hoodie and shorts, he had his wallet in one hand. And rode his car away. Probably sneaking out of campus again.

After a few minutes, Kile received a phone call and left aswell for a reason I don't know of.

I was left at the table with Blake who kept his eyes on his phone, playing a video game while sipping a can of soda in one hand.

I got bored just watching him there. "Hey." I called.

He didn't mind me.

"Hello?" I snapped my fingers to get his attention but he ignored it. What's his problem?!

"Hey!" I clapped my hands infront of him.

He pressed his finger to his lips and shushed me. He's getting on my nerve.

"Hey!!!" I pulled his phone from him and he glared at me. Whoops wrong move Paige.

He banged his phone on the table and faced me. "What?!"

I crossed my arms and glared at him aswell. "What are we going to do? I can't just sit here and watch you play for the rest of the day, I've got my own plans!"

He scoffed. "So?"

I scrunched my forehead. "I adjusted for you this morning to be here, now can't you adjust for me?"

He rolled his eyes and went back to his phone.

"Unbelievable." I whispered. "Fine! I'll go by myself, don't blame me if our punishment gets extended." I hung my sling bag to my shoulder and stood up from my chair ready to leave for the door.

I gasped when I felt his wrist hold my arm firmly stopping me from leaving. "I'll go with you."

I ended up with walking with him to his underground garage. I saw the collection of sports cars, probably Kile and Ram's. He had a collection of motorbikes. He sat on one of them and threw me a helmet.

I took a deep breathe. I don't like motors.

He looked at me and raised an eyebrow. "Get on."

I shook my head to loosen my nerves and I hoped on behind him. I wore the helmet and was greeted again by screech his helmet's AI or robot. We drove to Elite Square.

It's already late in the afternoon that's why many students are out partying, shopping and minding their own business. Blake took of my helmet when we got down he followed me to a café shop where I plan on finishing my paper report for Monday. We formed a line and everyone in the line looked at us well Blake particularly.

His looks really are eye catching, he's tall and built, his dark hair matches his green eyes and he's just got that aura, of perfection. But I don't know what do these girls really like about him. Yeah he's got the looks but his attitude is rotten.

When we got to the cashier, she gave Blake the googly eyes but Blake didn't mind it and just kept his attention to his phone.

"Ehem." I tried to get the cashier's attention.

Her eyes widened and she got back to the present. "Oh yes ma'am what can I get you?"

"I'd like some hot chocolate and a blueberry cheesecake and uh..." I turned to Blake and nudged him. "What do you want?"

"Espresso." He quickly said.

"Anything else?"

"Pick anything you want."

I rolled my eyes and told the cashier our order.

"Name please." She said.

"Paige." I answered.

She then faced Blake with hopeful eyes. "Name sir?"

I frowned, isn't my name the only thing she needs?

Blake looked at the cashier. "Paige." He quickly said and left to find a seat.

A small smile formed on my lips but I immediately erased it, why do I feel amused about it?

The cashier looked disappointed. I took our order and went to the seat Blake reserved for us. I got him a croissant so that he could eat something.

I could see some girls in the café eyeing him. They were probably high school students from the junior school, others were my schoolmates.

Isn't that Blake Carlisle?

I thought he doesn't do girlfriends.

He's so hot!

I rolled my eyes. All they see is the surface.

I took a sip on my drink and eyed him. He's busy playing on his phone. I took a slice of my cake and did my paper. After 20 minutes I finished and he was still playing.

We needed to talk about our schedules so that we wouldn't have to fight about it, if we wanna make our situation work and get this punishment over.

"Hey!" I called his attention.

When he didn't answer, I pulled his phone away from his hand making him glare at me.

"We need to talk." I placed his phone on the table.

He crossed his arms. "About what?" he seemed annoyed, well I am too!

"We need to fix our schedules so that we could make this work." I leaned back on my seat.

"So." He raised his eyebrow. "Do you want us to do everything together?"

My eyes widened. "No that's not-"

He smirked at me.

"What I mean is that."

He made a hand signal for me to wait, he checked his phone again. Anger boiled inside me.

"Hey!" I banged the table. suddenly my hot chocolate flipped making it spill all over my shirt. "Ah!" It was so hot, I could feel my insides burn and numb.

"Shit!" Blake brought his phone down and handed me napkins. I rubbed it through my white shirt but the pain on my skin increased. My eyes widened when Blake splashed cool water on my shirt.

"What on earth?!" I glared at him. I was about to say something when he cut me off.

"It's for the burn."

suddenly I felt the pain subside but not fully. I stood up and ran to the restroom. I washed my shirt then I realized that I didn't have anything to change into. I was about to contact Aicko when someone knocked on the door.

I peeked a little and got surprised to see Blake with his arms crossed.

"I need a shirt." I said.

He looked around the cafe and scratched his nape with frustration.

"It's ok I can just contact Ai-" I stopped talking when he immediately took off his navy blue hoodie and handed it to me. He was left with his black v-neck shirt that hugged his body perfectly. Many eyes were instantly glued to him.

"Get changed." He quickly said and went back to our table.

I exhaled. I don't have any other options than to wear this. "Ugh!" I took my shirt off and wore the hoodie. It's oversized that it looks like a dress to me but it's fine. His scent filled in. I shoved my shirt in my bag and composed myself. I left the restroom and headed to our table.

He was on his phone again, I sighed of relief. Good thing my paperwork didn't get ruined.

He looked at me when he noticed my presence. "Lets get out of here before anyone thinks that were a thing." He stood up leaving for the door.

The girls eyes in the café followed him.

He's leaving already?!

I need his number!

When will he notice me?!

I rolled my eyes and brought my things. I found him outside the café walking through the shops. "Ugh!" I said in frustration and followed him.

We passed by shops and wherever we go he draws attention. What is with him?!

Beautiful warm fairy lights lit up the square streets. My mouth dropped in awe of it. I took out my phone and took a picture of it. It looks beautiful. I turned to Blake who was also looking at it. He doesn't look like it but I could tell that he's also in awe.

I taped his shoulder. "I have something to buy in the grocery."

He nodded. Suddenly  Khrysie, Bellona and Nile approached us. They all were dressed up for a night out.

"Blake!" Khrysie gave a flirty smile. "Are you sure you don't want to join the party tonight?" Khrysie touched his shoulder and pouted.

"What's in it for me?" Blake raised his eyebrow.

Nile pouted aswell. "There's going to be drinks and my brother said he'll be there."

Bellona stayed quiet and just raised her eyebrow at Blake waiting for his answer.

He looked back at me and I eyed him. Khrysie looked at me aswell and gave me a small glare. I rolled my eyes.

"I'll be going then." I left them.

"Hey!" Blake called but I ignored him.

If Blake just wants to party then so be it, why is it like I'm the only one who abides to this punishment? And why is it like I'm the one dying to be with him?

I pulled out my phone to dial Aiden's number. I need someone to rant my problems to. I gasped when my phone was snatched from my hand. I turned to the snatcher and glared at him.

"What now?!"

He crossed his arms. "Why'd you leave?!"

"Because you're busy flirting with those super hot royals and planning for some night party." I pointed out.

"What?" He scrunched his eyebrows. "Isn't it obvious that you're the one I need to be with?"

Wow like it's really out of his will when he emphasized Need. I laughed sarcastically.

He rolled his eyes and took my hand dragging me to his motorbike. "I'll fetch you in the morning and send you home on school days, we've got sports training for the whole next week so you'll go to the football field after your training understood?"

He said all those quickly that all I could do is nod.

_______________________

The weekend passed quickly and I spent it mostly in Blake's villa with Ram and Kile. Today's Monday and I've got the rest of the week full of training. I woke up 5 AM because our track team will be having a warm up jogging at 6 AM. I took a shower and wore a black sports bra and leggings, I wore my pink running shoes and I tied my blonde curly hair into a high ponytail.

I packed some extra clothes and my cap in my gym bag and met Aicko in the kitchen. She had a tshirt and shorts on, with some volleyball equipment. She looked cute with her hair in a ponytail and her side bangs falling on the sides of her head.

"Hi!" She greeted me while chopping apples. I smiled at her and filled my water flask with water and ice. I don't want to be dehydrated.

I went to the door. "Bye!" I called.

She gave me a flying kiss and started eating her breakfast. I'm leaving before her since I'm not gonna have breakfast yet. I walked to the elevator with my gym bag slung on my shoulder. The girl in the lobby greeted me and I walked out the building. The fresh chilly morning air greeted me.

Suddenly a black sports car drove through the parking lot and stopped infront of me. The driver opened his window.

My eyes widened.

"Get in quick, I'm almost late." Blake said. He was already in his training jersey.

I hoped in the shotgun seat. "I didn't know you own a car."

He scoffed and started driving. His hair was fresh from the shower. "I just got it last night."

I scrunched my eyebrows. "Why do you need to buy it if you've got a lot of motorbikes?"

He leaned his arm on the window and kept his other hand on the stirring wheel. "Because I know you don't like it"
