Kira sat on a desk at the far end corner in the class. She really didn't like these different kind of scents always blending with her and restricting her senses. She put on her headphone as if listening to music, but the truth was that there was nothing playing. She always did that to prevent people from talking to her and getting familiar with her. She rested her head on the table closing her eyes.
After some minutes Kira picked up a familiar scent and the next moment someone tapped her, she took a deep breath before raising her head.
"What?"
"I have been searching all over for you " Camille said sitting on the desk in front of her.
"Why? We aren't that close" she retorted with suspicion.
"Really? I don't care. You didn't tell me the exact class you are in?" She asked not minding Kira's words.
"But it doesn't matter anymore, we are both in the same class" She said and Kira felt like strangling her.
"Oh, right this is also Anton's class" Camille said excitedly bringing her face close to Kira's.
Kira smiled, resting her back on the chair making sure that there was a distance between them.
She looked at Camille who still had a bright smile on her face since she started talking. Kira wondered if she was a human or a supernatural being, because there was something off about Camille's scent.
"Oh, right guess who is the new cool guy of the school" Camille chirped excitedly.
"Who?" Kira asked bluntly with no interest.
"You're really a vibe killer" Camille humps
"Okay, I don't want to know anymore" Kira said resting her back on the desk.
"Okay, okay; It's Ryan the new handsome guy" Camille said raising her head up.
Immediately Camille said that, Kira's expression changed.
"What's wrong, are you okay" Camille asked when she noticed her weird expression.
"Yeah"
"Hi, Camille" Anton said, standing beside her
"Oh, hi" Camille replied.
"Hey, Kira right; Hi" He said waving at her.
Kira sized him and raised her right eyebrow up. Anton felt embarrassed and lowered his hand.
The teacher walked into the class and everyone went to their seats, She looked around before spotting Kira.
"Looks like we have a new student in our class; can you come to the front and introduce yourself"? She said dropping her books.
Kira stood up, introduced herself and sat down without going to the front. Everyone looked at her awkwardly. The teacher faked a cough and started teaching.
Kira listened to the teacher's teachings with a frown, looking bored to death. After classes Camille happily jumped to Kira's side.
"Let's go get something in the cafeteria"
"Erm, no! you two go without me"
"What? Really"
"Yeah, I will pass"
"Okay, if you say so, Come on Anton let's get going" Camille said dragging him out of the class.
After some seconds Kira left the class to the rooftop. She wanted some fresh air, she was fed up with the different scents around her all day.
She sat at the edge of the rooftop. she took in a deep breath. Her pouted lips spread into a smile, but after some minutes her facial expression changed to a frown.
"Do you by any means have a fetish in stalking people? I just don't understand why the crowned cool guy in the school would stalk a peasant like me." She said with a raised eyebrow without even turning she already knew who had appeared.
"You're really funny, But how do you know I'm the new school cool guy ? They haven't announced it yet....." He said and Kira had a confused look....
"Hmm, it looks like it's now the other way round. Why are you stalking me?" He asked with a sneer.
Kira gave him a smile and faced forward. She raised her right hand in the air and brought it close to her face. She placed the back of her hand on her right eyes and she smiled but little did she know that Ryan was watching her all this while.
Ryan was fascinated by her smile, actually this was the first time he had seen her smile so brightly. He couldn't understand why she always keep up a defense against people because he had a reason for distancing himself from people but for her... He really wanted to know what was on her mind. He had never had impression on people he meets for the first time, but with her it was different. He wanted to know about her. Why she was also in a defensive mode.
Kira noticed that a particular person's gaze had been on her.
"When are you going to stop staring?"
"Actually, I wasn't staring. I just wanted to make sure that my guesses were right"
"Pardon?" Kira questioned
"You're always on guard"
"Oh! really?"
"Yeah"
"It's natural to be on guard against strangers. There's nothing wrong with that, just being extra careful." she shrugged.
"Hmm, you can say it like that. We are completely strangers. Urgh, I need to head back; See you around" He said standing up and leaving the rooftop.
Kira looked at his fading figure and there was this serious look in her eyes. She hasn't forgotten the ferocious look on his face when he had intended to kill that beta and that the reason for his stay in El Paso was for her head.
Kira disliked the way he had always been the one starting up the conversation and she never saw it as a good sign.
She heard the bell indicating for her return to class. She stood up and walked back inside. When she walked inside the class she saw Camille already waiting for her.
And with the way she was smiling Kira knew that it wasn't anything important.
"Where did you go to?" Camille asked.
Kira looked to her with some annoyance "....Somewhere, you're not needed"She said sitting in her desk.
"Guess what happened in the cafeteria"
"What?"
"The queen bee literally waited for Ryan in the cafeteria, but he didn't show up" Camille said and Kira looked at her suspiciously.
"Be honest with me Camille, where do you get your information from"
"Erm, I can't tell you but it's so legit but I wonder where Ryan was; or who was with him? The whole school want to know!"
Kira looked at Camille's instinctive face, She furrows her brows immediately she realized that it seemed sooner or later trouble would knock on her door if he keeps coming to her.
"Kira, are you Okay?"
"Yeah, yeah; it's time for you to go to your seat. Bye" Kira said pushing Camille away.
So, he was trying to put me on the spotlight. He's definitely sly. I need to stay far away from him. Who knows what he might brewing next. She thought angrily.
The last professor for the day walked into the class and began giving out lessons. After classes, Camille returned to Kira's side but this time with Anton.
"Let's hangout for a while" Camille said holding Anton's hand.
"Nah, I need to go somewhere immediately after school, so you two enjoy" Kira said hanging her bag and leaving the class.
Kira got to the cafe, as she walked in she met Celina but she didn't come at her like she always do. Kira was satisfied with the outcome of what she did. Kira ignored her, wore her apron and went to serve the tables.
