"Meet me at angle 90°."
After reading that line, I rolled my eyes. Just then the guy behind me tapped me again. I faced him and he gave me another paper. I glared at him but what could he possibly do, the only way I could know who sent the letter was if I interrogated everyone... Or of course , I could just meet the person. My problem was that the person wanted to meet in 'Angle 90°'. Angle 90° is just like the name, it's a corner in school where people usually make out or confess to each other.
"Come alone after classes." The other paper read.
'He wants me to come alone, of course . Classic giveaway to a secret admirer'. I thought.
I stood up from my seat and walked to the trashcan, then dumped the papers in it. Luca, the class head, looked at me confused and I shrugged like I was unaware of what I did. He probably saw the paper move around the class before getting to me and as surprised that i just threw it away.
I was going to go Angle 90°, but I wasn't going to keep the paper, there was no use of it.The handwriting was sloppy and unfamiliar. It wasn't from someone in Celestine. If it was, the person did a good job faking it, because having a good handwriting was something even an Onyx must have.
I sat on my seat and began thinking of all the attractive boys in Celestine that could have sent the note. It could be the class head, Luca, but he would probably just tell you face to face. in fact all the good looking guys would have the audacity to do so. It only meant that I would be meeting up with one of the boring guys.
The teacher finally came in and Luca went to sit on his seat. Which was right next to mine.
Luca was a brilliant class head. He excelled in everything. Even Archie was bad at something, like playing a violin. Luca also has a twin brother, a very identical twin brother, Levi. But was an Onyx. Rumours from the girls hostel had it that he was just as good as his brother, but he didn't want to be in Celestine with Luca. It was true, Levi was an excellent student, but I didn't really notice when I was in Class onyx.
When classes were over, I gave Alma and Archie a quick update on the letter. They had already taken their test.
"I hope that paper passed Ivan too, that dude would be crazy jealous." Archie laughed and I only smirked.
Ivan was my ex-boyfriend. He always got jealous when I talked to Archie, that was my best friend. He didn't seem to understand that. We broke up just because of that.
"Bree, you have to stop talking to Archie, he freaking likes you, how the f*ck can't you see that." Archie said in a throaty voice, which as a matter of fact was Ivan way if talking. Archie kept on mimicking Ivan Alma was just laughing and agreeing with him.
"I'm going there." I announced. They looked at me with a knowing look.
"Angle 90°? Yeah we know you're going... But we're coming with you" Archie said, Alma nodded.
"We can't be too close, you have to take some girl there Archie." I told him. He wanted to complain, but I shushed him. I turned to Alma
"Alma, you just have to...lay low, unless you can-"
"I'll lay low Aubrey." She cut me off with a gruff a voice.
Every Tuesday, we had 30 minutes to do what we wanted after classes. Then everyone, literally everyone, was to go to the library to read for an hour. After that, we're supposed to head to our hostel between 4:30 and 6:00 pm. Dinner was optional. You could have dinner if you wanted to, by 7:00.
After we talked, we headed to the library and saw that it was already full. The library was the biggest place in the whole school, rather, the senior's library was the biggest (10th - 12th graders, only a few juniors were allowed there). We climbed the stairs and went to our seat in the Celestine's center. The whole Library was divided into four, down the stairs was two; Jade's and Selenite's, and up was two; Celestine's and Onyx's. All the Celestine's alone contained about 60 students. That's to Describe how big the library was.
After reading, Alma escorted me to the toilet, just so I could be sure I looked cute. I mean If a guy was going to propose to me, I had to look beautiful. Whether he was hot or not.
I took off my wine colored suit (which we wore every Tuesdays and Thursdays) and handed it over to Alma so she could help me hold it. My tie wasn't on and my shirt was untucked. I started to wonder if I should tuck it in.
"I think I'll leave my uniform like this" I said, more like a question.
"You're gonna do whatever you think no matter what I tell you Bree" Alma pointed.
"How could you say that! (I put my right hand on my chest, acting hurt) I take your words seriously Alma" I continued. "what do you think I should do?" I asked and she smiled.
"I was kidding, do what you want. It's the same uniform" she said, so I did, I left it untucked.
I did the edges of my long and beautiful curly black hair(which wasn't natural), and applied lip gloss , which was given after you buy something in my cosmetics store. Not that I couldn't afford it, the owner of the store was a close friend of mine, Hazel Silva. We're the same age and we've been friends for a very long time. I met her one day I followed my dad to a business meeting. Her Dad was my Dad's business partner...I guess that's a story for another time.
"Let's go!" I said after spraying my perfume all over myself.
The angle wasn't very full, mostly Selenite's and Jade's. A few from Onyx. I couldn't tell who else was a Celestine in our grade except from Alma and I. Archie made his ex girlfriend Meet him there. I really pitied her, she was really broken when they broke up. He's just going to disturb her healing process.
Alma kept a distance between us. I looked around for a single guy in the place.I saw one resting on a tree.It was him.
I looked down as I straightened my skirt(which compared to Alma's was a mini skirt). When I raised my head, I bumped into someone.
"Luca?" I was going to ask what he was doing there, but then I looked at the tree and saw no one there.
"You're the secret admirer?!" I nearly yelled.
"What are you talking about?" Was he playing dumb?
"You sent the letter!" I held my waists. I always thought high of him, like I thought he was audacious.there he was acting like a lost kitten.
Just the someone tapped behind me.I looked back and saw Vesper.
"I...I...I sent the letter." He murmured.
"WHAT!" I screamed. Everyone in the angle turned to me. Luca silently walked away.
Noticing the attention, I groaned and grabbed Vesper's tie, then dragged him near the tree I saw Luca earlier.
"I'm... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to annoy you"
There I was thinking someone loved me. I felt like choking him with his tie. I released the tie and asked why he called me there. I didn't want to believe he DID actually like me.
"Well... Well Archie left one of his notebook yesterday, I...I tried to give him but he wouldn't talk to me, and he also left one today, so I...I thought I would give you."
I couldn't believe my ears. He called me here to give me a f*uckin note! I held my forehead. He could have given me in thousands of places that I'm not with Archie or he could've told him in writing since he loves sending unnecessary letters.
*Why didn't he just choose Alma, she's the nice one* I thought.
"Where are the notes?" I asked, defeated. He opened his bag and brought out two notes. I forcefully grabbed it and started walking away when something fell from the book. I picked it up and it gave it a long stare. It was a picture of five girls, One of those girls was my sister.
