"I want you to know that I like you. Can I please be your girlfriend?"
"I'm sorry!" he shouted to her.
"W-WHAT???!!!!!!!" the whole classroom shouted about what they have heard.
Alex felt sad that Ellie rejected her. She kept smiling at him as she kept her composure.
"Is that so? I'm sorry then," she said, and she walked away from him as she exits the classroom.
His classmates are glaring at him, and it frustrates about what happened to them.
"Eleanor! What have you done?!" Teddy yelled at him.
"What do you mean? I apologized to her!" he howled at him too.
"No, Eleanor! That must probably a reject… whoa!" he exclaimed when their class representative grabbed Ellie's collar. She faced him with rage and anger, and it surprised her that Ellie rejected Alex.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!" she called out at him with anger.
"Who are you?" he's frightened too.
"Rejean Clementine! No… what kind of relationship do you have with Alexandria Madrigal?" she smacked him in the arms and he drops. "Why did a four-eyed dork dweeb like you with no social status in this classroom rejecting Alexandria Madrigal just by saying I'm sorry?! Huh? Why?!" she scolded him like she's her mother, and she marks out her finger to him. Her blood boils when she's facing at him.
Ellie did not know what was going on, but he thought what he had done was unacceptable. He's feeling that his shame is grabbing him because he tore her heart in front of his classmates. He panicked, and he panicked, and he panicked.
"NO!!!!!" he shouted as he dashed towards outside the classroom to find Alex. He ran fast when he saw Alex viewing the flowers in the school field.
"W-Wait a minute!! Wait!!" he yelled, and he gasped for breath as he was running the entire time. Alex confront him as she saw that he was out of breath.
"What is it?" she asked in a different tone.
"What I mean is, I'm sorry about the stalking incident! In the classroom, I wasn't thinking about…" he said fast that Alex didn't understand his words.
"Hold on! I can't understand you! I don't understand…"
"I want to know the reason you want to go out on a date with me…" he asked while he's smirking like an idiot. This is the first time that someone wants to date him, so felt embarrassed.
"Well… because… I want you to be my boyfriend…" she answered him and she smiles.
Ellie felt an explosion happening inside his mind. Her words echoing to his soul like she's beating him.
"WHY?!!!!" he shouted as he kneeled down because of his defeat. It surprised Alex on what he's doing. Ellie turned himself into self-analysis mode.
"Okay… Calm down and think about this! She has a grudge against me about what happened today! There's no way that she will date a person like me! Besides, I can't get involved with girls at all!" he mumbled to himself again.
"Hey! She's trying to find a fresh way to bully you!" Belle said as she appeared out of nowhere.
"A fresh way to bully me?! I see!" her advice suddenly crossed his mind. "So basically, she's trying to trick me into becoming her boyfriend! It's a slave contract! And then she's going to get inside my heart and try to mess up from the inside!" he still mumbling to himself. He's seeking to get the wrong idea about her proposal. It can be his worse scenario!
"So what are you going to do?" Alex suddenly asked him. It startled Ellie as he stands and moves away from her.
"I-If I become your boyfriend… will you forgive me?" he asked her while he's not staring to her.
"I don't get it but… does that mean you'll go out with me?" she asked while she's comes closer to him.
"I humbly accept your request…" he said as he wishes to cry because of defeat.
"Then… I look forward to spending an entire year with you!" she announces, and she smiles to him.
"That's long!" he shocked.
She suddenly bursts into hilarity. Ellie didn't mean to make her laugh, but Alex can't help it. It can be a reason she's interested in him. The two of them knew that she will not forgive Ellie if he doesn't take her seriously. Alex gradually comes to him while Ellie becomes nervous when he's with her. "For the meantime… Please take care of me, okay?" she puts her hands into his arms and she smiles at him.
"Hey, Ellie! Do you what it means to be my boyfriend, right?" she asked while Ellie is moving away from her until he's on the wall. He realized that he's a dead meat if he can't be a decent boyfriend to Alex. This will be the worst thing that has consistently happened to him.
