Lunch time.
Jay and Bren are having their meal in the cafeteria. Right now, Jay looks like a zombie eating his food, slow as a snail. Jay is having a hard time forgetting about what happened during their P.E. time.
His first kiss was just taken like that. How can he forget something like that? The feeling, and the soft lips of the girl. That memory will surely appear in his mind every now and then.
"So Jay, hey, hey Jay, hey!!"
Bren called for the attention of Jay but he noticed that his friend is daydreaming. Only when Bren raised his voice that Jay snapped out of his dream.
"Oh what is it?" Jay asked.
"Jeez. What the hell is wrong with you? Are you perhaps thinking of your glorious moment a while ago?" Bren asked with a teasing smile. Of course Bren didn't miss the event that occurred. He was one of those students that almost got nosebleed upon witnessing the sacred moment between Jay and Crystal.
"Well, it's not like that. Let's just eat." Saying that, Jay proceeded to chomp on his food in a lightning speed. Bren was amused by the behaviour his friend is showing.
While watching his friend eat, Bren is thinking of something. 'I wonder if Charlene will let me kiss her too again?'

Meanwhile, in the Scorpio section.
Crystal is continuously banging her head on her seat in a slow and not-so-hurtful manner while her best friends are watching her with amused looks.
Crystal still can't get over her thoughts and feelings of what happened between her and Jay. She is constantly thinking of it that she didn't realize the passing of time.
'Jeez, why does it have to happen?'
'If only I moved away quickly then that didn't happen.'
'Im sure Jay will hate me.'
'I wonder what he is thinking now?'
'But why does my heart feels happy?'
'No, this is wrong. I should just try to forget it.'
Crystal the raised her head and fixed her hair. No matter what, she will not let that accident disturb her mind and feelings.
"Hey Crystal, you forgot about your lunch." One of her friends reminded her.
"Eh?"
Crystal realized that she has been overthinking things that she forgot her lunchbox. She was about to bring it out to eat when the bell rang for their next class.
Crystal didn't know if she should cry or not. She was tired and hungry after playing volleyball but right now she can't possibly eat. She remembered that they will have a quiz for the next subject so skipping class isn't possible.
Her friends threw her pitiful looks but deep inside them, they are actually cheering her for what happened.
One of them gave her a chocolate which Crystal happily accepted.

Upon hearing the bell rang, Jay and Bren walked out from the cafeteria to go to their classroom. On their way, some of the first year students kept glancing at Jay. They are the ones who witnessed the scene during their P.E. game.
Jay just ignored them and kept himself calm, with his hood giving him a cool look.
They then met Mylene Sali, the secretary of the Literature club and the younger sister of Karla Mae Sali.
"Hi Jay, hi Bren, good afternoon." Mylene greeted in a cheerful way.
"Oh, hello."
"Good afternoon too, pleased to meet you."
"Jay, don't forget to come to the club room after class, President Amethyst wants to meet all of us." Mylene then winked and walked away.
Jay had no time to thank her so they just hurriedly went to their room.
"Hey man, all the girls in your club sure are all pretty, hehe."

After class.
Jay bid his goodbye to Bren and Mark and Natalie since they will go home early while Jay had no choice but to stay for their club meeting. Right now, Jay realized that his decision in joining a club was a big mistake for him.
He can't go home early and plus, he can't spend more time with Mark and Natalie. He may be a bit of a quiet guy, but that doesn't mean that he is a zero in his social life. Although he sucks at socializing though.
Jay made his way towards the building where their club room was when he surprisingly met Crystal.
She is carrying some books, probably to return to the club room. Their eyes met for a moment but they both retracted their gazes and looked away in opposite directions.
Crystal had her cheeks red because of embarrassment while Jay felt sweats forming on his forehead. The tension in the air is so heavy that they both can feel the weight of it.
But Jay tried to calm himself. There's no way that something so simple like that will affect him that much. He encountered events more intense than what happened between them.
He cleared his throat and tried to ease the atmosphere by speaking.
"Uhm, so, are you also headed to the club room?" Even though he tried to look calm, there is still some uneasiness on his voice. Jeez, he never encountered something like this. Jay preferred to encounter a life and death situation than to talk to the girl in front of him.
"Uhm, yes, President Amethyst will hold a meeting for our plan this January." At least, the air became a lot easier for them to inhale.
Jay felt awkward that they just only standing so he told Crystal that they should hurry up.
They are both silently walking up the stairs to the third floor where their club room was. But inside Crystal's mind, she is screaming non-stop and cursing herself for this situation. She felt like burying her head and then forget about this matter.
Jay can sense the uneasiness of the girl so he tried to interact with her.
"Those books look heavy, it's better if I should carry those."
Crystal nodded her head. "Thanks."
The walk to the club room felt like eternity for both of them. Only when they entered the room that they heaved a sigh.
But they stopped sighing when they heard their president speak.
"So the the kiss-couple is finally here."
