"Ma'am, wake-up." I slowly opened my eyes and saw our new maid. "You're already late for school ma'am." I got up and slowly walked to the bathroom. I don't care if I'm late, My Mom's the owner of the school what can they do?
After I got myself ready, I went to the car. I just got off the car and I'm currently taking the stairs to the 3rd floor! The elevator's under maintenance! I went in the classroom and went to my seat. I got all their attention, including the teacher.
"Miss Clavienta! It's the first day of school and you're late?"
"Yes, ma'am." I proudly answered and smiled, causing my classmate to laugh. The teacher looked at me with dark eyes, mad. "Ma'am, don't need to be mad at me, I can't turn back the time." I shrugged. My classmates laughed again.
"Let's continue the lesson. Clavienta, get your notebook and take notes
" I got my notebook and took notes, like she said. After us taking the notes, the teacher asked for our attention and said there's an announcement.
"For our 1st and 2nd semester, all of you are going to be paired to a senior. Seniors that were in the honor roll last school year. All of your questions about assignments, projects, and lessons, will be answered by them. They'll be your tutor for months."
Okay, understood. Someone raised a hand and asked; "Ma'am, How are we going to be paired? By our choice? Or by teachers' choice?"
"Good question. We'll be doing it just by picking a piece of paper on this bowl." She got the bowl from under her table and showed it to us. It was full of rolled small pieces of paper. I waited for my turn to pick and I got one.
I opened the piece of paper and read it. 'Zavalla' was written on it. I guess it's a surname.
"Class, you'll meet your partners after lunch break, dismiss." Suddenly, I felt nervous. What if my partner has bad attitude? Or worse, bad hygiene?!
I thought of that over and over during lunch break. I can't even eat properly. I was looking nowhere when someone called my name.
"Xera! Xera!" It's Jane, my bestfriend. "What's wrong with you?! Your mind's been floating since morning!" I smiled at her and just said it's nothing.
After lunchbreak, the class president announced that the seniors are going to be here anytime soon. I sat properly, combed my hair, and even put lipstick on.
"Wow, Xera, you're so serious about this." It was Zion, a friend.
"Yeah," I laughed nervously and the students goin in by the front door got my attention. "Oh shit, they're here." I whispered and fidgeted on my seat.
I watched the seniors walking towards their partners. They're in a line, going one-by-one. I was nervous when I saw there were only two men left. There's the Campus Crush, Ian. I don't know his surname though, I hope he's Zavalla. Oh, and the other one is.. just someone. He's not really that famous so I don't know him. I looked around the room so I'll know who's the other one vacant and it was Jane! I'd be jealous if her partner's Ian, I hope he's mine.
I caught the 'unknown' senior talking to my teacher. I was shocked when the teacher said. "Mr. Zavalla, you'll be with Clavienta." Shit! I looked at Jane and she almost jumped at her seat when she heard that. Sigh.
"Xera, right?" He asked and offered his hand. Well, not to bad. He's tall, has a fair skin, wavy hair, emphasized jawline, a nice teeth with a fang, and specs. He's wearing specs.
"How'd you know me?" I smiled and accepted his hand.
"How couldn't I? I'm a Zavalla." What?! What does he mean?! But the Zavalla surname is quite familiar though. Zavalla huh.. think Xera! Think!
...
That's it! "Oh yes! Son of the Vice President, 40% share holder right?!"
"Yes, I'm the son." He chuckled and sat on the chair next to me. He looked infront so I clearly saw his side profile. It's.. It's.. I shouldn't say it but he's really attractive in that angle.
"So, Xera, How old are you?"
"I'm fifteen. You?"
"17. So uhm.. do you have some questions about the lessons for the day?"
I shook my head. "I have nothing, I understand all of it."
He nodded ang looked away. "Well that's good. Just feel free to ask me anything abou-"
"Do you have a girlfriend?" I smiled at him ang winked.
"What?" He looked at me again, confused but grinning.
"What? You said I could ask anything I want."
"I have non, why? Am I your type?" He chuckled.
"No!" I laughed. "My seatmate here is staring at you for an hour now. Your HER type." I laughed again, teasing him. It was the 'nerd' girl of our class so it's just so funny.
"Tsk." He chuckled. He's about to say something again but we suddenly looked up infront when we realized it was already time for the next subject! All the seniors have left except for him. "Fuck." He finger combed his hair and quickly stood up. "I gotta go. I'll be outside your room after dismissal." He walked out the classroom.
"Oooh. Looks like someone had an interesting talk." Zion just popped up infront of me and teased me! I felt my cheeks heating so I just looked away.
"It's nothing asshole."
He just chuckled and got back to his seat.
It was already dismissal so I got out of the room. I walked through the hallway when I sensed someone following me. It was Zavalla! I forgot!
"Xera! Just give me your IG account so we can talk about your studies." I gave him my IG account and got going. I was about to go down the stairs but I remembered something and went back to him.
"What's your name?"
He smiled. "Javeon. Ryle Javeon."
