Chereads / More than meets the eyes / Chapter 10 - Miss Quest

Chapter 10 - Miss Quest

Inside the school.

Damon leads Jazz into one of the classrooms.

"What are we doing here?" She asked, looking surprised.

"Umm… it was really awkward after what happened outside there so I wanted to clear things up." He explains. "What happened outside there was actually a misunderstanding, Betty pulled a sting there, I didn't plan any of it."

Jazz smiles " it's fine, I am totally good with it."

"Then would you like to dance with me?" He asked nervously.

"Mm hm " she nods.

Damon smiles and turns on a little slow music on his phone.

"Would you like to have this dance with me, my lady?" He bows while stretching forth his hands towards her.

"Of course" she chuckles and takes his hand.

They danced slowly,as she rested her head on his chest.

"I am really sorry for what happened today, I wish you to be the Miss Quest of the year." He kissed her forehead.

"You think so? What if Betty pulls another string? If she was able to do it to get a dance with you, and someone like her who loves attention will definitely do the same." She states.

"That's the problem." He frowns.

"Let's just see what happens."

They danced for a little while, before going back outside, to listen to the announcement.

It was time to know the Miss Quest of the year.

Meanwhile,

Earlier on, Sky and Ella were left alone to talk, which was all Raymonds doing.

Ella was finding it difficult to talk to her knowing she is stronger than her, but the latter was doing her the favor of ignoring her.

"Hi, you've been sipping your drink since, without saying hi to me." She chuckles.

Sky rolls her eyes and looks at her

"Isn't it obvious that I'm not in for a chat?"

"Oh I see, but I am, technically we are chatting already." Ella stated.

"Good for you," she looks away and continues her drink.

"You're a witch, aren't you?" Ella asked.

"You know, why ask?" Sky finally looks at her, she could see the desperation in her eyes. 'Why is she so desperate? And what is she desperate about?'

"Just wanted to be sure of what you're, there's no crime, is there?" She chuckles nervously.

"I didn't say so, you are misquoting me, love." Sky surprises her with the last word.

"Wow, love? Seriously?" Ella laughs but deep down she is not happy the way Sky carried herself, she is so jealous of her, and is making her go insane.

"Your friend Jazz."

"What about her?" Sky's face turns serious immediately.

"She has the man I like and I don't like that one bit, at all. So if you'll help me do the favor of telling her to watch her back, and stay away from him, I'll really appreciate that. If you're her best friend she'll listen to you of course." Ella said at once.

"I think you should watch your own back too, because your eyes are on my best friend, and I know you already know I won't sit back and watch you harm her." She smirks.

"What an arrogant b*tch" Ella walks away angrily.

Present.

Mrs Rose gets on the stage. "Ladies and gentlemen, I am so pleased for you all for being in the event today and would like to announce the Miss Quest of the year."

All through Betty was smiling like she pulled something off.

Sky looks at her and smirks ' don't get above yourself girl, watch your back'

Everyone is so anxious to know who will be the winner.

Jazz was kind of nervous but she didn't put her mind in that much. Damon holds her hand. "Don't be scared, I have faith in you." He smiles at her, and that literally made people jealous, Betty, Raymond and Ella.

"And the winner of the year is Jazlyn Robert, give it up for Jazlyn Robert." She announced.

"What just happened." Betty fumes.

She looks so devastated,'how did this happen, I different casted a spell on her to say my name, what changed everything.' She is on the verge of tears.

Jazlyn walks to the stage, she smiles at Mrs Rose and shakes her hand.

Mrs Rose wears the Miss Quest badge and wears her crown. And everyone applauded.

Betty leaves the arena together with her crew.

Ella rolls her eyes, as long as Damon is with her and likes her, she will forever hate her for that.

After the event.

Damon meets up with Jazz, he hasn't gotten the chance to talk to her after she was crowned the Miss Quest of the year.

"Hey," he hugs her which caught the latter by surprise.

"Hi" she hugs him back.

"I knew you would win it, I just have that faith," he smiled.

"Yeah, thank you, and I also think my best friend has something to do with it, because there is no way Betty won't do something." Jazz laughs.

"So tomorrow we shall celebrate together alone,for the whole day. How do you see that?" Damon suggested.

"That's a good idea, you know the whole day." She giggles. "I'll see you tomorrow, my family are waiting for me. Bye, don't be late tomorrow." She waves at him and enters the car and leaves.

Ella who has been watching them finally decides to meet Damon, while Raymond waits patiently in the car together with Emily.

"Hi" she smiles.

"Hello," he looks at her.

"Um…sorry I go by the name Ella. You don't have to tell me yours, I know. You're Damon." She blabs.

"Oh I see" he tries not to make things awkward.

"So what are you up to?" That is definitely not the way to start a conversation. Gawd she's so bad at it.

"As you can see, I am heading home. I'll see you later bye." He leaves to his car where his elder sister was waiting and enters.

"Who is that girl?" She asked.

"I don't know,a weird girl? I guess, I don't like her vibes, let's get out of here already." He looks irritated.

Ella walks to the car feeling disheartened the way Damon replied to her, he seemed to not be interested in her at all.

"Why is your face gloomy, did he treat you badly? Do you want his heart? I can get it for you." He said.

"No, it's fine, I'll get him to like me, don't you dare touch him, I'll eat your brain." She warns.

"Aww, my baby is in love." He laughs.

All through their discussion Emily was busy with her phone. She has finally decided to face the reality of life, staying with these two maniacs. She never wishes to be like them, to her they're monsters and she doesn't want to have anything to do with them, but unluckily for her she is living with them and they refuse to let her go.

So all she has to do is to act like she is with them in everything they do, and wait for the right time to escape, but the maniac Raymond never leaves his eyes from her.

......

Jazlyn was glowing all through and all Sky could do was stare at her.

"You haven't told me where you guys went to and what he said to you that made you all glowy like this."

"Am I glowing? No I'm not." She denies.

"Yes you're." Sky tickles her.

"Fine, fine, stop it." She laughs. "He took me to the classroom and talked me out of what Betty did, and we danced, you know."

"Did something happen more than that?" Sky asked.

"Nope, he just kissed my forehead and he said we should meet up tomorrow, and the whole day to us, I told Mom already, so she'll understand. The whole day to us, tomorrow." Jazz smiles.

" Okay then, I just want you to be careful, that's all. And you should avoid Raymond's witch, she is definitely up to no good. She has the nerve to threaten me, it's funny to hear." She shrugs.

"Really? Why will she threaten you? That is absurd." Jazz chuckles.

"Nothing much, she's just feeling insecure, that's it." Sky refuses to tell her best friend the main reason, because she knows her quite well, that the latter won't talk to Damon ever again if she finds out. 'poor Damon will definitely suffer heartbreak if I tell her the whole story.'

"Did you talk to Raymond, hope he didn't say anything offensive to you? If he does, I'll confront him, for sure." Jazz fumes out of nowhere, whenever she remembers Raymond, she just gets angry unnecessarily.

"He spoke to me, but didn't say anything offensive to me, he can't,not after the little gesture I gave to him in the class." Sky hugs her. "Stop getting angry at him, he is not worth the time."

Jazz hugged her back and smiled. "Whatever, whenever I remember he exists, it just makes me angry. Knowing the kind of person he is."

They laughed a little before going downstairs. Throughout their discussion the little fella was standing outside the room patiently waiting for his Mama to come out, as the days go by, he is learning somethings that he should do and not do.

His Mama us finally out.

"Oh my sweet baby." She carries him as he rested his head in her shoulder while crossing his hands around her neck.
