Jax Blaine's POV

After the announcement about me being the new president of the student council, I got more attention from the students than before.

Mr. Espayo, the head of committee introduced me to the student council. He asked the former president, Caryll to brief everything the president's task to me. I was excused in every subject because of it. I was so busy in my desk that I forgot to mind the time.

"Pres? Lunch time na po."

I look at her and nodded. "Thanks Caryll."

She smiled then left the room together with the other members.

I sighed and arranged the mess in my desk. I wonder if those idiots are now awake. I hope she's still not. And if she is, it's better for her to come here tomorrow.

I was about to leave the room when I heard a knock. I wasn't able to respond when she immediately opened the door. She came rushing towards me as she raise her eyebrows. She looks frustrated.

"I wonder why you let me make out with you!" she scoffed and rolled her eyes. And I started to grin when I already know why she's here. "It's because of this?" she then glared at me while showing the tracing device that I had put in her underwear last night. "You were tracing me?!"

I smirk and crossed my arms. "See? You cannot really seduce me, Ms. Forbes." I showed her a triumph smile when she didn't able to suppress her expression. She was so shock hearing that surname, wondering on how did I know her real family name.

"Let me say this to you while we're now talking..." I turn my back on her as I pick my bag. "Remember that whatever you plan to do to me, I'm always ahead of you. You cannot control me like how you control your Clark."

When I face her, I quickly stop her hand when she's about to slap me. I glared at her to know that I am this serious. "Do not forget about our deal! Introduce me to one of your higher ups if you don't want me to dig deeper about your past!" I pushed her hard to stay away from me. "Of course, I even predicted that you will let Franz know about this. If you don't want me to wonder about your relationship with him, keep this only to yourself!"

Based on her expression, she doesn't know what to say. She's gritting her teeth as she's still glaring at me.

"And you're not allowed to enter here next time! Now leave!" I pointed the door. She scream out of frustration.

She took a card from her purse and gave it to me. I looked at her first before looking at the card. "Meet me at that address at exactly 10pm!"

'The Blues?' That was the only words that was written in front. The address was written at the back of the card. Nothing else.

She rolled her eyes and aggressively flipped her hair as she left.

'She seems easy to handle as what I predicted. But it looks suspicious. There is still something about her that does not fit in the picture.'

I immediately sent the details to Kernel and asked him to meet up with me tonight. He said he'll come with Veign.

When I got out, I saw Caryll with a confused look when she saw Noreen leaving the room. She looked at me as if I need to tell her an explanation.

I sighed. "I'm sorry for letting anyone in the council's room. It won't happen again."

Still I need to respect them and be kind to others as a president.

She sighed and nod. I know she still has something to say to me but I didn't mind her and just went to cafeteria.

When I arrived, I saw the Mysterious Shits. Clark and his members were in their usual place in the center. They automatically looked at me but I didn't mind them... Unless if they will make a trouble.

I can feel Clark's anger when I passed by beside him. I took a glance at him to meet his furious eyes then I acted like nothing happen when I ordered my food.

I place my food in the table beside them and sit because it's the only table that's vacant. In my peripheral vision, Clark stopped Lance and his other members to come at me. I know they're very pissed because of my new rules.

I didn't see Franz and his gangs as well as Neil's gangs since earlier. I expected that they're going to approach me after what I did in the court and after I changed the rules in this campus. Suspicious...

I still need to be alert.

The students were quiet but still I can feel their attentions towards us. I can still see they're whispering and gossiping to one another. And it's very new that they're this quiet.

When I tried to look one of them, they automatically avoid my gaze. 'So they're now more interested to me?' "Tsk!"

I was eating peacefully when Noreen suddenly arrived together with other girls, the reason it made the students starts gossiping loudly. I did not look at her when I thought she's going to Clark's table. But it's not.

I boringly looked at her when she stop in front of me grinning while raising her eyebrows. "Is it true? That you and that trash Kitkat had a one night stand?"

Her drama again! I know it's her drama when I saw the other girl with her is filming us. I know why she's doing this. To make the rumor worst. I know it's not for me but it's for Kitkat and Clark. I can see her intentions when she took a quick glance at her boyfriend who's currently watching us.

"Yes."

I forced a smirk to Noreen to show her that I did not really care about Kitkat. But when I look at her boyfriend, I cannot stop myself grinning when he looked like he's gonna punch me real hard. The looks of his face was priceless. I couldn't help it. I also wanted to tease this bastard!

"I heard you were not really in a relationship? You just use her to hook up?"

After hearing this bitch, I secretly gritted my teeth out of frustration and force a chuckle. Clark is now gripping his fist when I glance at him. Noreen looks at him too and she looks frustrated because of his reaction.

'Pathetic!'

I put down the spoon and fork then crosses my arms. "I thought your boyfriend is still in love with his ex so I played with his ex instead. Having sex with someone isn't big deal anymore!"

The moment I stated those, I already imagined how that idiot will react to this. I was filmed so I know she will saw this!

"But you and your boyfriend being bothered by it is a real big deal. Does it mean I succeeded my plan to use her ex? Does it mean he still have feelings for her?"

To assure this bitch that I did not really care about Kitkat, I said those but I just feel bitter. I'm also careful about my words when I know until this time, I am being watched by whoever assholes they are!

I grin at Noreen when her face became priceless. I stand up and clean my table. After that I walk out like nothing happened.

After getting out from the cafeteria, I sensed someone is following me. Doesn't have an idea wether he's the stalker who stalked me last night or they're one of those unknown org. Well, I don't even know if that stalker of mine belongs to that org with eye tattoo!

I slowly walk to the council's room, acting like I didn't notice his or her presence.

Caryll asked me to help them prepare for the event. Also, still have some papers to check before submitting it to Mr. Espayo. I need to finish it as early as I could because I still need to meet up with Noreen tonight.

'She better not lie to me or set any trap, or else I will really kill her wether she's important to Exseven's mission or not!'

I didn't mind the rat that's still following me as I enter the council. Some members were already inside and they greeted me. I nod back and quickly sit in my desk.

I don't know how many minutes had pass, when suddenly the door was aggressively opened. It was Caryll. She instantly look at me while catching her breath. She looks worried as she rushed towards me.

I look at the others just to find out it's only two members left inside here with me. I was this busy to notice.

I look back at her. "Why ar..."

I didn't able to finish my words when she grabbed my wrist as she look at me, so directly into my eyes that I found it weird.

'We're not this close for her to cling on me!'

But I didn't mind it and just asked her what happened. "Iyong g-girlfriend mo, pinagtutulungan nina Noreen."

I automatically frown when I heard it. My heart beats faster out of nervousness. I looked away as I gulp.

'Damn it! Why the hell she's here when she just got her consciousness back?'

"Tsk! Where are they?" I asked calmly but I really wanted to go there as much as I can.

I always know that she's always in trouble when it comes to Noreen. I even witnessed it! But why the hell I wanted to rush there as if it's my first time knowing it?

I saw Noreen gripping her hair and I cannot fix my expression when seeing her hurting! Her eyes were wet! She's crying!

Seeing her in that situation, I already have a second thought if my decision was right or not.

"What's this commotion?"

She flinched the moment she heard me but she didn't look at me. I secretly sighed in relief when Noreen let go of her hair. I walk towards them and I have this weird feeling when seeing her not looking at me unlike she usually does. And I understand her.

"I just gave her a lesson. Sinasaktan niya kasi ang isang estudyante dito! She just violated your rule!"

I don't mind Noreen's whining, the confused look of Caryll, and the student's attention to us. I only stare at her, observing her moves and reaction. She's still not looking at me.

"Is that true, Ms. Reyes?" I ask to get her attention yet she didn't utter a word and didn't move.

Suddenly, Noreen grab her hair again to let her look at me. "He's asking you! Learn to respect!"

'I wonder if she's really acting this way because of what I said in the council's room. Or she's doing this to test me? This bitch is slightly clever!'

When I met her eyes, I suppressed my expression and force myself to stop the emotions that I am feeling right now. Noreen is staring at my face, examining my reaction.

Her tears. Her eyes. Her emotion. Damn it! Damn it!

I know she has a lot to say or to ask about the issue, about what happened but she remained silent.

"Where's your manner bitch!"

I wanted to stop Noreen when she grabs her hair again. But my eyes caught someone from afar watching us, watching me. I couldn't see his face because he's wearing a black hoodie, a cap and a mask. I stared back at him. 

"How dare you!" Noreen suddenly cursed that made me look back at them.

I grip my fist hard and clench my teeth when this bitch slaps her face hard. My blood boils and I already imagined my way of torturing her!

I took a quick glance again to that stalker and he's still watching us!

"Enough!" I glared both of them to not look suspicious in front of everyone. I frown as I look at Noreen. "You're also violating my rule but I'll spare you for now," I said with a coldest voice I can utter to let her feel I'm already upset because of this girl's fight.

Noreen showed a triumph smile while looking at her. Showing that I am favoring her than Kitkat. Fortunately, Kitkat wasn't looking.

'Wait 'till I torture your Clark in front of you! Let's see what will your reactions be! I cannot let you enjoy alone!'

I held her hand and dragged her with me. "I need to detain you for what happened here," I said it with no hint of emotion in my voice to let them think I doesn't care.

I need to be careful to anything I say and act as of now.

She's silent while letting me drag her. When suddenly someone mentioned about what happened in the court that made her stop walking.

Before turning around them, I saw Caryll gestured that she'll go first and I nodded. I look at the student who said those and stare at him. Even though I didn't utter a word, he already knows I'm warning him.

I know she's very curious about what happened in the court. And I'm not yet ready for her to find out. She hated Clark after knowing he killed someone.

I wanted her to hate me too but I don't know why I don't want her to know what I did. Even I, myself cannot explain what I feel.

I drag her again inside the council's room and immediately informed Caryll about her punishment.

"She violated the first rule and I have to discipline her. Process her punishment, Caryll."

It was just an excuse. I just wanted to be with her alone. I know she has a lot of questions and I'm willing to answer  everything she'll ask.

And those stalkers won't find out what we're going to do here. This is the only place that no one can stalk us. I already searched this room to find out some listening devices or cameras when I had the time being alone here. It's better to be sure.

Caryll stared directly into my eyes and nodded as if she understood what I'm going to do. And yes, she asked everyone to get out together with her. Weird yet I'm thankful she did this.

I locked the door so that no one can interrupt us and told her to sit in front of my desk. I examine her as she's still not looking at me. She has a small wound on her cheek. Her hair is messed up and her eyes are wet.

"Fix yourself!" I said as I look into my desks' drawer to find a band aid. I stop for a second when I can feel her staring at me.

"Staring is rude!"

She did not utter a word so I took a quick glance just to see her fixing herself. Being alone with her just made me feel contented. I can feel my heart beats faster when a thought of having a normal life with normal situation suddenly came into my mind. A normal life with her.

Damn it! Now that I'm beginning to recognize my feelings to her, she affects me in every detail she does.

I must be feeling this way because of what she did to me in the hotel, that night she thought I was asleep. That kiss she responded to me outside Alfonso's room. That's it! That's just it!

I distracted myself from those childish fantasies and took the printed new rules and regulations then hand it to her.

"M-may nangyari ba talaga sa 'tin?"

I was taken a back because of her sudden question. I know she has a lot to ask but didn't thought that was bothering her the most! I forgot, she doesn't really know what happened. She must be confused 'cause the last thing she remembered was she sleep beside me.

Seeing her face with her begging sad eyes shows she's really bothered about it. She looks scared and shaking which I did not expect that that will be her reaction.

'May nangyari ba talaga sa 'tin? Don't tell me she's still...'

I know she and Clark were together in six months so I thought she's not innocent when it comes to this thing.

'I ah... I don't really know much about girls and relationships! I don't know she's this innocent!'

"Bakit wala akong malay ng dalawang araw? Anong nangyari doon sa hotel? Anong nangyari kay Alfonso?" She's crying. "Ayos lang ba siya?"

I was confused! 'Why is she like this when in fact she's hurting right now. Why she's still thinking about others?'

"Ayos lang ako kung ayos ka lang Jax..."

I was again couldn't believe her! I already hurt her! Why is she still doing this?

'Stop it idiot!'

My heart is beating more faster than normal and I want it to stop!

"Babaliwalain ko ang mga nangyari basta't alam kong okay ka lang!"

'It's not good! The moment I will give in, there's no way I can stop anymore! Especially this time I wanted to surprise her with a kiss to make her stop!'

'I wanted to pull her closer to me and let her kiss me again like what we did before! I wanted to feel her lips again! To kiss her neck. To touch her waist. To...'

"Basta't alam kong ginagawa mo lang ito para tigilan ka nina Clark. Jax..."

I slammed the desk hard for her to stop talking and for me to stop myself from those idiotic thoughts. I glared at her because I did those rumors for her to stay away but yet...

'It's too dangerous to fall for her! Not for me but for her! I'll be just putting her life in danger! That's the least I wanted to happen!'

I fix my thoughts and suppress my emotions. I forced a laugh and came closer to her. She must not worry about me when in this situation she must worry about herself!

"Are you trying to seduce me, Ms. Reyes?"

She flinched when I corner her, putting my hands to the back of the chair she's sitting as I lean closer to her.

She gasped when I touch her leg, but damn! I don't like the effect I'm feeling because of her reaction.

'Let's see if you still have the room to worry about me!'

"Why are you wearing short dress hmm?"

She looks terrified the reason I wanted to stop. But I want her to realize that she fell in love with an asshole!

She looked away.

"What if something really happened between us in the hotel? Will you be happy?"

I already did these things to anyone I hate before. I even did this to Lavandeir. Seeing their horrified expression made me satisfied back then, especially when they cried. It made me happy. But seeing Kitkat's reaction, it affect me big time that I can feel what she's feeling right now!

Yet I still continue scaring her. She stopped my hand when I tried rub her legs and slip it under the skirt of her dress.

Emotions came rushing to me again seeing her expression! I move closer for her to look at me but my heart starts racing again seeing her face this close to mine. Glancing at her slightly opened mouth, with her pink kissable lips.

"The door is lock Kitkat. I can do anything what I wanted to do with you right now. And no one will know what will happen here..."

I gulp absentmindedly as I'm fighting myself not to kiss her. I only look at her eyes, fighting the urge to glance at her lips again. What I feel is not important right now and it must be disregard!

"J-Jax! B-bakit?" Her expression says she does not expect me doing this.

"Why? I thought you like it? You love me don't you?"

'Asshole!'

Without a second thought, I pulled down the sleeve of her dress together with the strap of her bra as if I was harassing her. She looks very terrified and was about to slap me but she stops herself from doing it. Her eyes were questioning and hurting while looking at me.

"Pakiusap wag! Hindi ko kayang itulak ka! Please wag!" she pleaded and cried. And seeing her like this makes my mind blank. It's as if all my plan to scare her fades away.

Seeing her like this hurts me inside! Her worries about me, confused the whole me!

'Why?'

I wanted to apologize even though there's no use. I sighed to calm myself and pulled her sleeves up. I also fixed her skirt and stepped back.

"See? You easily trust me without knowing I'm really like this. You like me without knowing who I really am Kitkat!"

"Stop assuming things on your own. That will only lead you hurting yourself. Stop trusting someone easily! I used you to annoy your ex because I thought hurting you will hurt him!"

'Now, hurting you will hurt me too.'

I wanted to cup her face with my hands when she's still sobbing. I took my handkerchief and wipe her tears. Putting a band aid on her cheek and she let me. I sighed!

These strange feelings... It's my first time experiencing this. I did not experience this with Cath back then. It's as if they were suddenly heightened!

"I admit my mistakes and I'm sorry for hurting you. But..." I sincerely said it and I don't know if she believes it because if I were her, I won't believe me either. "From now on, stay away from me while I'm still being nice. Because the moment you try to approach me... I will kill you."

...

Caryll only gave her a small punishment so that both parties won't find it unfair. It's already 7 past 30 in the evening when I'm walking alone to the basketball gym to check on her and give her this jogging pants. Those kind of dress are very short!

When suddenly Clark approached me while giving me a furious glare as if he wanted to kill me anytime.

I frown as I glance at the gym before looking at him. "You're here to watch her?" I suddenly feel upset!

"You don't have the right to talk about her!" he said as he gritted his teeth, still glaring. His look is far from how he looked back in the court.

"You also don't have the right to watch her!" I don't know. I just feel mad out of a sudden when in fact I know the reason that he's also doing the same as me to protect her.

"I don't know what's going on with you and Noreen but don't involve her! If you just wanted to get back at me then I welcome you but don't use her!"

I just frown when I couldn't find words to react. Seeing him like this just prove that he still love her! And I don't like it!

"She really loves you! I can see it! The way she looks at you is the same way she looked at me back when she still love me! All I want is her to move on from me! To stay away from my trouble but I didn't wish for her to fall in love to someone like you!"

I let him grab the collar of my polo. "That video!" he shouted when he couldn't control his anger. "That rumor will surely ruin her and you're here walking so calmly and flirting with Noreen!"

He pushed me as he let go of my collar. He was about to punch me but I managed to avoid it and punch his face instead. So hard that my fist was hurt!

I grab his shirt's neckline same as he did to me before he could react. "I understand your reason why you're hurting her back then 'till now! Noreen will kill her if it isn't for you! I fucking know that that bitch is still using her to control you! That's why I know you can understand why I'm doing this!" I gritted my teeth as I whispered it to this motherfucker!

His damn face was confused as he looks at me yet he's still serious!

"But I will kill anyone who will try to kill her! I mean anyone! Even if that bitch or your gang or even you as the motherfucking reason why Noreen is hurting her. I will kill you! Because I..."

I suddenly felt strange. My heart beats faster because of the thoughts that came into my mind.

"I also fell in love with her!"

There I said it! I already accepted it! I admitted it! Damn it!

I pushed him and kneed him in the stomach out of frustration. I punch him hard and he coughed blood. I pick him up again, gripping his shirt's neckline.

"You let yourself be in that situation because of your lust! You cheated on her and let that bitch seduced you! You were seduced while I am not! You let her control you and that is the motherfucking difference between us! You do not have the right to get angry in the first place because this was your choice!"

'I heard he's favorite of Mr. Summit that's why Noreen cannot let him go aside that she has feelings for him. I might use him someday!'

"And I won't let anyone control me!"

I turned my back on him and was about to walk out when he stopped me. I look at him and saw him coming near me with a serious expression.

"Noreen and Franz are running away from someone! That's all I know!" he seriously whispered and walked out.

I frown when he left me confused because of what he said.

When I arrived at the basketball gym, I frown seeing those basketball players forcing her to join them. And that hand that was gripping her arm, I want to rip it off!

"If I were her, I would also love to accept my offer and be with a handsome like me to a grand hotel, than being with you who don't have a face to be proud of and can't even afford any cheap room!"

When they saw me, other members were scared and immediately runaway.

"Kung sinong makaasta! Ikaw lang ba mayaman dito?"

"Handsome and rich? Yes, I have both while you don't have the face. By the way, how can you define rich? Maybe we have different definitions."

'I don't have the time to argue with these small brains!'

Good thing he was dragged by his teams so I now have time to be alone with her. If feeling guilty all the time is one of my Karmas, then I accept it. She won't be insulted if it wasn't because of that rumor.

I throw her a glare when I saw a glint of happiness in her eyes when our eyes met. She still feel the same for me after what I did? This woman is unbelievable!

And I wasn't supposed to be happy!

When I don't sensed someone observing us, I gave her the paper bag with jogging pants.

After admitting to myself that I really fall in love to this idiot, there's a sense of relief inside me. But I hate the fact that it's already hard to stop my feelings! I hate the fact that I am this cringe!

"Don't drag me into this! Finish your task immediately so I can go home too! Tsk!"

This was Caryll's task to monitor her punishment, but I told her that I'm the one who'll do this.

Itutuloy...
