It was Zane and Raquel.
Mia was more than happy to see them, and without hesitation, she swiftly walked towards them and covered them with a warm embrace.
Liam frowned and faced the new people who had just made their entrance into the classroom.
"Oh, look who is here, you are not invited here, you dare step into our class without shame after what happened. Raquel, don't you have any dignity left?" said the girl with long pigtails, who had sat on Clyde's laps.
"Shut your mouth you pig! Listen Clara if....." before Raquel could finish her words, Clara, the girl with pigtails cut her words short.
"Uh, uh, not yet done Mrs Raquel, your little boyfriend here needs to know how you use him for clout. Do you know that Zane? Oh, of course not. Raquel wants Clyde so bad, but since Clyde loves me, she is using you to make Clyde jealous. Poor Zane, have you ever asked yourself why Raquel agreed to date you all of a sudden? Her heart belongs to...." Clara could not finish her sentence, a strong slap echoed inside the class.
Clara received a hot slap from Raquel.
Suddenly, the girl just stood up from Clyde's laps and laughed her heart out, like a witch or possessed woman.
Clara: Zane, hold your girl if you need to know everything. She is so guilty that she decided to silence me in the worst way. No one, not even my mom has ever slapped me you imbecile! Raquel and Clyde were dating before she met you Zane. But then, Clyde saw a hotter girl, me, and flirted with me. But since you did not want to share him, you broke up with him due to jealousy. Fact, Clyde has so many girls he didn't need you, I don't mind sharing him. So you ran after cute Zane, since he had a major crush on you. Now you are using him. You deserve better Zane. I can hook you up with my friend here, she is single.
After what seemed like eternity, Raquel had ran out of patience.
"You bitch! How dare you, you better take back your words or else you're gonna regret the rest of your pathetic life. I love Zane and no one has the right to interfere with our relationship,"
Mia saw Raquel cracking her knuckles in wrath ready to chop Clara's head off with her fist.
"Listen here Raquel, Clyde won't let anything happen to me, right hun...." no answer came from Clyde, and they all turned to look at him. He was absent-minded, not paying attention to the argument between the two girls. He had no clue what they were talking about.
He was staring at Mia.
"Eeehhem, Clyde? What are y-you staring at? Why are you staring at the Whitehead while am speaking to you" Clyde's attention came back to the present, realizing he was smitten by Mia. He has never been captivated by someone's beauty before, not even Raquel, whom he was once obsessed with.
Zane noticed and was unhappy about it. To make him stop staring at his best friend like that, he held her arm, and pulled her outside the class.
Raquel followed them, flipping her hair at them and walked seductively out of their class.
The trio headed towards the school cafeteria to take breakfast. They were rather quiet. Raquel decided to break the silence.
"Zane, you can let go of her arm now," she frowned that he was still holding her arm, and Zane smiled awkwardly, retracting his hand.
She observed her surrounding. There were so many people seated and chatting happily. She has never been around so many people before, showing her face. This was her first time! They took their breakfast and they followed Raquel to a particular seat. It was not occupied and Mia wondered why.
The seats were decorated with pink glitter, and it was painted letter 'R'. The table looked different from the others. It was rather beautifully decorated with colours like the one she saw in the hallways earlier when she was with Zane.
"Mia, here is where me and my friends sit. You can join me anytime during meals," Raquel told her.
Some girls stared at the new girl who had sat with Raquel. Many girls wanted to befriend her so bad that they felt jealous the whitehead gained Raquel's friendship. She even got to sit at the 'R' seat, which they called it to refer to Raquel's seat.
"I shall be going to the washroom, excuse me guys," Zane asked Raquel if she knew where the washroom was, and she said yes. She lied because she felt awkward at the couple who were throwing glances often without saying a word. Mia thought maybe they were uncomfortable with her around, so she left them so that they could talk.
She exited the dining hall, and took a left turn, amazed by the school's facilities. This was an expensive school, and Mia felt bad for being in such a superior school. Greta must have gone through hell to get her enrolled in Cambridge high school.
She reached a hallway with a sign at the top, written '11th Grade Alpha Class'. There were so many lockers, which she assumed to be from their class. She remembered she had not yet searched for her locker.
Concentrating on the lockers, someone purposefully put their foot in the way to trip her, which worked.
She saw the ground coming closer, but before she hit the ground, strong hands wrapped around her waist, and she was pulled to the person's hard chest.
She looked up to meet her savior's gaze. She met a pair of black eyes staring at her. His jawline was sexy and his pink lips smirked. His height was rather stripping.
"Whoa there, you seem too distracted, I might decide to walk with you all day to prevent your teeth from falling off," The boy said jokingly, Mia still holding onto his chest.
"Oh, how rude of me, I didn't introduce myself," He slapped his forehead "Hi, my name is Clyde, nice to meet you Mia Bexley." He smiled like a child, looking cute.
Mia noticed some girls looking at them. She then realized Clyde was still holding her waist, and she was grasping on his unbuttoned chest. She quickly pulled away. It was her first time holding onto a boy who was not Zane like that. It seemed intimate, since she has only hugged Zane, and nothing more than that.
"You are so smart, I presume you have a calculator in your brain. I am so bad at Physics. Am so dumb, unless you help me? Please Mia, will you help me with Physics?" Clyde pleaded with her, which made Mia giggle at his childish behavior.
"You laughing cause am dumb? But I forgive you. You look like an angel when you laugh, keep smiling, its a medicine," Clyde said admiring her laugh.
"Oh, no Clyde, I wasn't laughing at you, never mind, so, how do you want me to help you? I shall do my best."
"Since we don't have time at school, and I don't wanna trouble you, may I come at your house on weekends?" Clyde asked with his voice lowering at its sweetest.
"O..Okay.... but I shall have to ask my mom first" she could not believe she just said that.
