🎙️ Emily's POV 🎙️
I continued crying as Aiden hugged me
I was hurting before but strangely I feel better now, I felt comforted by his hug
"Are you okay?" He asked as he disengaged from the hug and I felt bad
I wish he didn't have to stop hugging me
"Am fine" I said as I sniffed
I cleaned my tears and I caught Aiden smiling and God he looks so cute
What's wrong with you Emily, you just got your heart broken, you aren't supposed to be like this
"Why are you smiling?" I asked Aiden
"You are such are crybaby" he said still with a smile
"What! Crybaby?"
"Yeah and I feel like I need to protect you from now on, cause I hate seeing you in tears" he said and my heartbeat increased
"What...what do you mean?" I stuttered
He brought his hand to my face and cleaned my tears and I flinched
"Let's be friends" he said
"Friends?" I asked surprised
I didn't see this coming
"Yeah" he said with a nod "I'll be your friend and I'll protect you"
"Why do you need to protect me?" I asked
"I already told you, I hate seeing you in tears, you know that feeling you get when you see a lost puppy all alone and drenched in the rain, that's the kind of feeling I get when I see you cry"
"What!! Are you comparing me to a puppy right now?!!" I yelled and he laughed
"See? This is the dummy I like and not the crybaby" he said and I rolled my eyes
"So we are friends now?" He asked and I smiled
"Friends" I replied
"Great, should we celebrate the beginning of our friendship dummy?" He asked
"Since we are friends now, stop calling me dummy, I've never heard you call my name" I said
"What's your name?" He asked
"What! You really don't know?"
"Your name is dummy to me so just accept it that way" Aiden said as he stood up
"Where are you going?" I asked
"Let's go play some games at the gaming center" he said as he held my hand and I felt butterflies in my stomach
He dragged me up and I followed him to the gaming center in the school
*************
It was already dark and Aiden accompanied me to the front of my dorm
"Thanks" I said
"For what?" He asked
"Everything"
"Yeah you should be thankful, you are really lucky, do you know how many people wishes to be my friend but you got choosen, you should really be thankful" he said and I scoffed
"Goodnight celebrity friend" I said as I walked into the dorm and I heard him laugh
I smiled as I walked to my room

🎙️ Michael's POV 🎙️
We have a class by 10 today but I woke up early so I went to the sitting room to watch a movie
Haven't really been able to sleep well for the past few days
I heard the sound of a car and moments later the door opened
Bryan
"Good morning" I greeted
"Hey, why are you up so early, that's quite unusual of you" he said as he sat beside
"Nothing, just couldn't get much sleep" I replied
"The reporters are still asking for your statement and we've received many interview request from different TV stations to interview you" Bryan said and I sighed
"Am sorry Bryan, you are having a hard time because of me" I apologized
"I was once like you Michael, young, a simple guitarist....."
"I thought you played the cello and not the guitar" I said interrupting him
"Yeah whatever, I was innocent like you and girls always hovered around me..."
"You said you went to an all boys school" I said interrupting him again
"Just..... What I mean is sometimes you don't need to go around a problem, the solution is in you going through it" Bryan said and I sighed
"You understand what I mean?" He asked and I nodded
"Yeah, tell the reporters to organize a press conference, I'll answer all their questions" I said
"That's great but do you have the time for a press conference, you guys just started recording a new song coupled with the school activities will you be able to make time?" Bryan asked
"You are right, my schedule is filled up"
"Just make a post on what you want to say on the band's blog and your SNS account, am sure that will also be very effective" he said
"Yeah, thanks Bryan" I said
"No I should be the one thanking you Michael, now I'll be able to stop taking my hypertension pills" he said and I smiled
"Is there anything I can eat, I haven't had breakfast yet" Bryan said
"No, we rarely cook, we just order food" I replied and he shook his head
"You guys are a lazy bunch of people" he said as he stood up and walked to the kitchen
I thought for a while on what I was going to post on the blog
My reputation has already been stained, I'll just agree with what she said, just to get out of this mess
I took my phone, logged into my account and began to type
"Hi guys, been a while, I've been really busy. I think I also owe you all an apology, I've been dating someone but I hid it all from you guys, am really sorry about that and I promise not to hide any important matter from you all starting from now"
I paused a bit, if I post only this then that means Lucy wins, I have to add something that's disadvantageous to her too
If am going to loose, I might as well give her some trouble to deal with
I took my phone and continued typing
"In the light of my promise of not keeping anything from you guys again, I'd like to announce that my girlfriend, Lucy has taken in, yeah she's pregnant! She just told me yesterday so am gonna be a Dad!! Am so excited guys, really excited. Thank you so much Lucy, I love you!"
I smirked as I posted it
She's gonna be really angry when she sees it
🎙️ Emily's POV 🎙️
I woke up in the morning and I felt so happy as memories of yesterday kept coming to my head
I told Lucy and Mia all that happened yesterday and they were surprised that Aiden came for me, they were more surprised that we are friends now
Am so looking forward to seeing him today
I showered and came back to the room
Lucy is still asleep so I decided to wake her up
"Lucy!" I called as I tapped her
"Leave me alone Emmy, am still sleepy" she said with her eyes closed
The door suddenly opened and Mia barged in
"Lucy!! Emmy!! You won't believe what's going on right now!" She screamed
"Shut up Mia, you are being loud, am trying to sleep here" Lucy said as she continued laying down
"Get up Lucy, this is about you" Mia said but Lucy didn't reply
She's probably pretending to be asleep so that Mia will leave her alone
"Michael posted that you are pregnant for him!" Mia said
"What!!" Lucy and I exclaimed and Lucy sprang up from the bed
🎙️ Lucy's POV 🎙️
I saw the post on Mia's phone and I couldn't believe what I was reading
"What the heck is wrong with this guy!! How can he just say am pregnant for him like it's a piece of cake!!" I yelled
"I don't really blame him, you kinda started it" Mia said
"I didn't start anything he kissed me first!!" I yelled again
"What are you going to do now, people are gonna start calling you wayward, getting pregnant while you are still in school and stuffs like that" Emmy said
I sighed angrily
How could you post such a thing Michael!
How could you do this to me!
🎙️ Aiden's POV 🎙️
We entered the car and Jason drove us to our class
"I can't believe such a thing actually happened between you and Lucy" I said
Michael told us all that happened with her and Lucy
No wonder the girl made that kind of post about him
"But I think you went too far Micheal, how can you say she's pregnant for you" Jason said
"I don't regret what I did, she also went far by telling everyone we were dating" Michael replied
We reached the lecture hall and Jason parked the car
Immediately we came down, many students rushed to us, most of them demanding autographs as usual while some congratulated Michael
We managed to leave the crowd and entered the class
I saw the dummy in the class and I waved at her
She smiled and waved back
"What's wrong with you?" Jason asked
"Yeah, something is definitely wrong with you" Michael said
"Why? What do you mean?" I asked
"This is the first time am seeing wave at someone" Jason said
"Yeah and you were smiling happily too, what's up between you and Emily?" Michael asked
"We are just friends, childhood friends" I said and Michael scoffed
Moments later, the class started....
*************
🎙️ Lucy's POV 🎙️
The class ended and I quickly went to meet Michael before their fans rushed at them
"We need to talk, follow me" I said as I walked out of the class and he followed me
We walked to a quiet place and I turned to look at him
"What's with the nonsense you posted this morning?" I asked trying not to yell
"Wow, this place will make a good background for pictures, should we take a picture? So I can post it on my account later" he said looking at the sorroundings
"I asked you a question Michael"
"Or should we just go on a photoshoot, you are my girlfriend after all, the mother of my unborn child" he said absentmindedly
"You are crossing your limit!!" I yelled
"Don't yell at me Lucy for you crossed your limit first!!" He yelled back
"Are you hurt by what I posted? Does it hurt your pride and does it ruin your reputation?" He asked "that's was exactly what I felt too when you posted that rubbish so I decided to to give you a taste of your own medicine, I hope you are enjoying it" he said and walked out of me
I stood transfixed not knowing what to do or say
My phone suddenly started ringing and it's Dad so I picked it up
🗨️ "There's this weird news going around about you Lucy though I refused to believe but I decided I needed to hear from you first, are you really pregnant?" Dad asked immediately I picked up the call
I sighed knowing the trouble I just landed in
"No that, am not pregnant" I replied
🗨️ "Then what's all this am hearing?!!!" He yelled and I had to take the phone away from my ear
My Dad is quite short-tempered, he gets angry easily and he's really strict
"That was a lie Dad, I swear am not pregnant" I explained hoping he'll believe me....
🎙️ Emily's POV 🎙️
The music fairies were still sorrounded by fans in the class
I stood up and packed up my books
I was about to walk out of the class when someone tapped my shoulder from behind and I turned
"Hi" Isaac said with a smile
"Hi, how are you?"
"Am good as you can see" he replied
"It's been a while I saw you" I said
"Yeah, I've been busy and I heard about the rumor of you sleeping with the professor, am sorry I wasn't here to support you then" Isaac said
"Thanks, it's all in the past now thanks to Aiden" I said with a smile
"Aiden?" He asked
"Yeah, he's a really nice guy" I said
"Really? I don't think so" he said
"Why?" I asked
"It's just... I've heard he's rude" he replied
"Yeah but if you get closer to him, you'll find out he's actually nice" I said
"So you are close with him now?" He asked
"Well, kinda" I replied
My phoned beeped as a message came up and it was Aiden
💬 I managed to escape from those crazy fans, am outside the garden near the hall, come let's get some Ice cream and be fast, don't keep me waiting 💬
I smiled as I read the text
"Am sorry but I've got to go Isaac, we'll talk later" I said as I quickly walked out of the class
🎙️ Isaac's POV 🎙️
I stood still as I watched Emily walk out of the class
What's going on with her and Aiden
She seems really close with him
Emily is a nice girl and I've started to like her but Aiden seems to be becoming an obstacle
I won't loose to you this time Aiden
You made a mess of my life before, you and Naty but now am here mess up your life too and probably end it for good
I guess it's time I start planning my revenge
Your downfall is near Aiden, am slowly going to reveal everything, everything you did to me and I'll make sure you regret ever knowing me
......to be continued.....
