Denver's Pov
This is the happiest Day of My life, Well Next to Rum bringing me to the arcade. Being Back after a week, made my classmates missed me too. They said they missed my jokes and My leadership (Even Though I'm very strict).
Its good to have grateful classmates. They understand how hard it is to become the teacher's puppet. You're responsible in everything.
If someone made a huge success, the teacher's would praise you.
If Someone messes up, The teacher's would blame you.
And If someone gets hurt, Its your fault for not guarding them.
Its a job everyone should not underestimate, which most people do. They think Being an officer is just all about the power they have. Not about the responsibility they carry. Well, they're wrong. For Being an officer means dividing your study time with responsibilities.
Personally if I were to choose, I don't like to be an officer. I just want to have fun. Not getting scolded every time, and being The teacher's punching Bag.
Too Bad, I got Elected in this position. The position, I swore not to be elected.
Gladly, I have a bunch of Friends helping me control the situation. Both New and Old Friends, who also got elected together with me. I want to say thank you to them. Especially to my new found friend Rum Verdell Ocampo, who's doing his best as The Class Assistant President even though everyone's afraid of him.
He's been too caring, always stayed close to me. That's why he became my rumored Boyfriend.
Also to Bob and Nick, Rum's friend. Who's very hands-on in investigating.
***************************************************************************
Its almost Dismissal time and everyone in this class is already getting bored.
The teacher has been repeating this lecture since the day I left for my one week rest. Sadly, she's still repeating it until now.
I want to go home. I thought to myself.
I usually go home early, but starting today I'm not.
Bob has planned to continue our investigation every afternoon, for us not to get disturbed in class. Since last week, they skip first subject for this and I encouraged them not to.
(Yep!! If they fail in this class. It would be my fault, since this is my issue)
We have to go to the security room, that no one knows exist. Except us. Bob instructed us to go there every afternoon, cautiously. He doesn't want anyone to know about the investigation, since until now we still don't know who's the culprit.
"Are you bored too?" Said Rum, who was siting beside me.
We always Sit together since, partners are only allowed to split ways during lunch break or dismissal. But these days, even if its Lunch break or dismissal, we still go together. (Talk about a clingy friend).
"Obviously!" I told him.
"Don't worry class is almost over!" Rum said.
"How do you know?" I asked him.
"5....4..." He started counting.
"what?!"
"3....2...."
"Stop!"
"1!" Rum shouted. The same time the school bell ringed. Which means class dismissal.
"Great!" I spoke with Joy.
Everyone in the classroom picked up their own bags and went straight for the door. As for Rum, Bob, Nick, Lei, Ricci and I, acted innocent and went out of the classroom one by one.
Everyone acted innocent, they were too careful not to get noticed. Of course Rein is absent so I have no one to go with. Since I'm not allowed to go with Rum.
So I just walked on my own.
I looked around as I walk towards the security room. I saw none of my friends, maybe they have their own sneaking skills. Well I don't. I don't even know how to sneak out from my mother. (well, because she's usually just saying Yes. So no need for sneaking out.)
When I know nothing suspicious is going on, I ran towards the security room. Where all of them was already sitting comfortably.
"What took you so long?" Asked Bob.
"You said to be careful." I replied.
"we arrived ten minutes ago. We thought you already went home." Nick continued.
"Well, I'm already here. So lets start"
They gave me a place to sit and Then they started discussing.
***************************************************************************************
"See you tomorrow guys!" I told them as I went out of the Facility.
"See you!" Dhaine replied.
They said they're going to go home in a short while, so I decided to go first. I was about to close the door when someone held it open.
"Lets go together." he said.
it was Rum holding his Backpack on one shoulder.
I was about to agree when Bob and Nick Interrupted us. We both turned towards them.
"Rum, didnt I say be careful?" bob reminded him.
"yes, this is going to be a new topic." Nick said. The others were just watching.
"Come on, its already late. No students are here except us." Rum begged them.
"How sure are you!?"
"120%" Rum replied.
He kept begging while Bob keep saying No!. It didn't finish shortly, until Bob surendered.
"Ok fine. but be careful" Bob acted as if He's our Mother.
I did nothing but watch as they talk until Rum decided we should get going.
We walked towards the parking lot.
There were only the two of us, walking in this big school ground. I know we're safe from teasing minds that time. its getting Dark so were unnoticeable from other's eyes.
We talked about a lot of stuff. Even I lost count. The both of us had fun, we didn't even notice it the time. I bet the others are already driving on their way home.
We arrive at the parking lot to see the only two cars in it. It was my Vios and Rum Ocampo's mini cooper. We walked closer towards it and talk for a few minutes.
It was already getting late, so I decided to say goodbye first.
"its already getting Late rum. You should get going to or else your mother, the principal will scold you" I told him.
"i wait for you to go first"
"What are you? My boyfriend? or my legal guardian?" I laughed as i joked around.
"Which one is better?" he replied.
"what?"
"nothing!" he said.
I said goodbye to him once more.
"Goodbye Rum. My legal guardian!" I told him and gave him a wide smile.
I turned around towards my Car's door to get in. But before I even get inside the car Rum called me again.
I smiled before facing him, and when I faced him, something happened that made me Drop the bag I'm holding.
"Yes Rum-"
I got shocked when his face got closer to mine and his lips touched mine. Rum Verdell Ocampo kissed me, without any warning.
It happened so fast, I forgot how to react. Its like my mind wants to resist, but my Body doesnt.
This is a very familiar feeling. It was the same thing, that touched my forehead on the clinic. Was the Nurse really telling the truth.
I cant do anything!. I want to resist, but I cant. I decided to just close my eyes as my lips touches his once more.
My soul got back inside my body, I was back with my own self.
I pulled away from Rum's arms and pushed him.
"I-" I cant speak anymore. I want to say something, but the only thing that went out of my mind was:
"I should go now Rum"
I ignored Rum Verdell Ocampo and went inside the car. I was to dazed from the events.
I drove as fast as I could away from Him.
And Left the school with the taste of his lips still on mine.
