Chapter 26 - Chapter 26 : Who is she to you ?

Stepping out of the bathroom dressed in the fancy outfit she had been given by Drew unexpectedly , Julie stared at her reflection on the mirror now .

She noticed that her wounds were not that bad and some were barely noticeable thanks to the small makeup kit , she got from Drew .

Making her way to the plush coach Drew had settled on she noticed that he had changed his earlier cloths into a normal white - bluish T shirt underneath a fitting black jacket and dark size fitting trousers like jeans , finishing up the look of the day with white sneakers the same design as the ones she had worn .

His raven black hair fell on his forehead almost covering half his face and the piercings at the end of his eyebrows .

Julie observed every detail intently noting everything in her mind for some reason it made her feel lucky being so close and able to see him like this .

" What are you standing there for , something interesting caught you eye little fish ? " Drew's voice snapped her out of her trance and when she looked up he was towering over her with unreadable expressions.

" Uh ! am done " Julie sheepishly replied and stared at Drew's black orbs that slightly glowed as he glanced at her from tip to toe .

" Alright , let's go then " Drew said as he walked past her heading for the door , " Wait ? where__are we going , what if they see me_with you ? " Julie asked puzzled and confused .

" And that's a problem ! why ? " Drew asked his eyes holding mirth and mischievousness as if he was looking forward to the people's reactions .

" Come now we are getting late " He said holding his hand out for Julie to take , Julie didn't know what this bad boy was up to .

She stared at Drew then at his stretched hand with worry but she still hesitantly put hers on his that felt cold and warm . He took her small hands in a firm hold but it wasn't tight and it felt right for her . Julie noted in her mind praying that nobody was in the corridor or roaming around the campus .

Drew opened the door and they stepped out and to Julie's dismay the dorm was bustling with students mostly boys , the whole dorm turned silent and all eyes were on her and Drew .

Who wasn't bothered and Just kept on walking like it was nothing , There were gasps , murmurs , insults and sighs accompanied by scrutinizing gazes , unbelievable stares and glares .

The tension in the air was effortlessly suppressed and made it hard for Julie to breath freely , when they were almost at the door Drew pulled her close to him and placed his arm around her waist casually , that was it Julie become turned stiff unable to process his audacious act .

When the students saw this little action their eyes narrowed with different reasons and judgements .

"What are you doing ? ' Julie asked attempting to pull herself away from him . But stopped when she felt him press the side of her waist , his slightly narrowed eyes clearly warning her to stop her pointless attempt .

She gulped and plastered on a fake stretched smile and continued walking , when they finally stepped out he let go of her waist and held her hand instead .

The students were all over the academy grounds enjoying the sunny flowery day and just like how the students in the dorm had reacted they did the same or maybe more .

Their outfits matched making people notice how close they actually were , they looked nothing less than a celebrity and his girlfriend who was just starting to shine in the modeling industry. Unbeknown to them was that the academy's top gossiper was secretly taking pictures for tomorrow's headlines on her secret blog and magazine .

At last they reached her dorm . Julie was about to step away from him and bow thanking him for his crazed generosity but that didn't happen cause he didn't let go of her hand and dragged her along with him .

' Inside ' the words screamed in her mind and before she could protest they were already close to her door where most of the girls were chatting out of their rooms .

He stopped and said ' My dear do want them to know ? ' a small loving smile appeared on his face .

The girls who saw and heard him were left dumbfounded and unable to believe their ears , word spread quicker than any wild fire and soon all the girls were out of their rooms and that included Helen , Jade and the girls that had attacked Julie in other words bullied her .

' To know what ? ' Julie asked worriedly looking at the gathering crowd of girls who looked more like a mob of angry people .

' About us ' he replied and Julie's eyes could almost pop out of her sockets if it was possible , her heartbeat increased and she then said ' No don't ' only for him to heqar but apparently everyone heard .

" As you can see my little fish cake is shy and wouldn't like for you all to know.... but I definitely want to tell you all about us " he started and pulled Julie close to him staring at her and lovingly caressing her cheek .

Julie's mind was in chaos not knowing or understanding the meaning of his words ' About us ' and his actions why did she feel__ .

Julie was pulled out of her thoughts by Drew who lightly pinched her cheek , his eyes holding her captive forbidding her from looking anywhere else .

" Now listen up from today onwards , if any one of you dunder heads dares or even try as to lay a finger on her....you will pay dearly . Your life at this academy will simply be....unspeakable " .

There was a clear warning in his voice holding a deadly tone that made the chills run down everyone's spine including Julie's . His voice held icy vibes making everyone shiver .

" Why ? why shouldn't we touch her ? who is she to you ? " Helen bravely asked the rim of her eyes red as if she had been crying before .

" You should know better than question the obvious....she is my girlfriend "Drew replied with an obvious hint of mockery and mirth .

As soon as he had uttered those words Julie felt her mind go blank and numb unable to process anything .

Gasps and murmurs erupted among the students who couldn't believe what was just said by the most goodlooking and wealthy boy in the academy . Curious eyes stared at the fuming Helen and then at the wide eyed Julie , who was still lost in Drew's intense gaze .

" isn't it right Honey ? " Drew called her and Julie widened her eyes blinking a few time before she replied " Ye_yes honey ? ' . She was in a_dilema .

" Come let me escort you to your room " he said tugging her hand and walking towards her door , when Julie's back faced her door Drew took her hand and kissed the back of it .

Tingling sensations and strange chills devoured Julie , her cheeks turned bright red before she took her hand back to her side .

" See you later My lady " he added with a wink before he gracefully left with his hands in his pockets .

The mob of angry and jealous girls turned and glared at Julie with murder in their eyes. Julie quickly opened her door and stepped inside locking the door behind her . That was it her normal life was officially over .

The girls departed and so began the chaotic spread of ' The breaking and shocking news ' in The V Academy .
