[ THE FIRST SHOCK ]

.

FEW MONTHS AGO**

GOLDEN HIGH_SOPHOMORE CLASS**

"Guys!!!! Mock result is out!! It has been pasted!!" A girl announced as she rushed in.

Immediately,the students started rushing out of the class one after the other.

Isabella and her boyfriend Maxwell walked out of the class like they don't care at all but still gonna check.

Isabella Is the most beautiful girl in Sophomore class,she's also the most brilliant,right,beauty with brain. She's the queen of the school because very soon they are gonna get into the senior class,she's the most popular,who doesn't know Isabella? The beauty queen with the perfect hourglass shape. She's slim but that shape is a die for,she's most guys crush but none of them would dare approach her because she's dating the almighty Maxwell.

Maxwell is the principal's son,aside that,He's the most handsome guy in the whole school according to the student,He's the most popular and also the most brilliant,nobody ever takes the first rank from him,it's always him before Isabella.

When they started dating in freshman year,everyone wasn't surprised,it's like two icons meeting each other. They love each other so much and doesn't rest from following themselves around.

After everyone left,except one person,that's THEODORE.

Please put respect on that name.

Are you looking for the most stubborn student in Golden high? Then that's him.

Are you looking for the naughtiest? Still him.

Looking for the student who gets most punishment? Still him

Looking for the student who do the craziest and weirdest thing in school? Still Theodore.

And finally,search for the name of the student who carries the 30th position among 30 students in class?

You will definitely meet Theodore Andrew there written in capital letter,it's not a new thing and it doesn't look like he's ready to change. To class it all,,he's popular.

After Maxwell,then there's Theodore.

The student love Maxwell for his handsome face,brilliant brain and smartness.

Whereas the student love Theodore for him stubbornness,craziness and naughtiness.

But it's always Maxwell before Theodore,ask any student,they will definitely choose Maxwell before Theodore,it's the culture.

Craziest part is...Theodore doesn't care,He's not in competition with anyone. He can spend the whole day in class sleeping and not waking up once to know what was being taught in class.

Aside him being Theodore Andrew the school bad boy and crazy boy,nobody knows his parents,aside the teachers probably. They have never attended the school event once,even on visiting days,it's always this same lady and man in black suit who brings him countless provisions and clothes.

But before each week ends,he would have distributed it to other students,He's that crazy.

Theo was just waking up from his nap,his bright and grey eyeballs serving the looks,his curly long hair is something to write about,He's extremely handsome,just simply handsome without trying,because this young boy never cares about his say look,He's the roughest you will find.

Chelsea was the first who came back into the class,she walked straight to the sleepy looking Theo and sat down beside him.

One thing is...Theodore doesn't have friends,not that people don't want to make friends with him,he just don't want to,he prefer being alone,as stubborn as he is,he do his crazy shits all alone. Chelsea is the only one he's quite close with,they are childhood friends.

"Are you seriously still sleeping?" She asked,checking the time.

Theodore smiled and sat up,Chelsea arranged his fluffy hair with her hand.

"Stop acting like a girlfriend,any guy crushing on you might misunderstand" Theo said and Chelsea rolled her eyes.

"I'm in number ten" She muttered.

"Whoa!" Theo clapped and Chelsea slapped his back.

"Ouch!! What is that!" He screamed.

"You're in the last rank again! You promised to change!" Chelsea yelled.

Theo chuckled.

"Of course I changed" He said.

"You're so unbelievable because it's annoying when you don't care!" She shouted.

"Why should my rank come up when my parents doesn't even care?" Theo scoffed and Chelsea rolled her eyes.

"Still....."

The class started getting filled up again,Isabella returned back with Maxwell and Maxwell stopped in front of Theo.

"As usual,you didn't bother going to check your point" He Said.

"Why would he? It's obviously wack as usual,ten points downward" Isabella said and the whole class bursts into laughter.

"That's enough,it's because he's not trying to,if he tries then he will be better" Chelsea defended.

"Even if he tries,he can't possibly come close to Maxwell" a girl said.

"Don't compare that loser to my boyfriend please" Isabella said and the class laughed again.

"Don't call him that!" Chelsea said.

With everything being said,Theo was already sleeping again,not hearing a thing.

Chelsea frowned when she saw that.

"I can't believe this" She scoffed and went back to her seat.

Romina,the girl whose seat is just beside Theo stared at him as he slept,she also rest her head on the desk,her eyes on him.

After mentioning,Maxwell,Isabella then next is Romina. She's also brilliant,but she's the exact opposite of Isabella,aside from the fact that she's also beautiful,she's the quiet type,she doesn't even get noticed by the students at all,she's always walking alone,but she's a total doll when it comes to beauty,just that she can't beat Isabella in that.

She was still staring at Theodore when he opened his eyes and their eyes met,he frowned and immediately turned his face to the other side.

Romina bite her lips and raised her head,she picked up a text and began reading,that's her best friend.

PRESENT DAY_MARCH 2024**

SENIOR BOYS DORM_THEODORE'S ROOM**

It's Sunday afternoon,tomorrow which is Monday is the first day of resumption into the Final year class in high school.

It's the rule that every returning student must resume back into the school a day before the resumption day,because that is the day their last semester results would be pasted,it's just the rules. But as soon as the students are seeing the pasted results,their parents in their different comfort zone would see their children's result as well. No need for panic.

Theo was busy arranging his room,he already disposed the old clothes in his closet,he never repeats the same old clothes,each semester comes with new bunch of clothes. Nobody can beat him in dress and fashion,nobody.

He finished arranging that and the next was his uniforms,Golden High School have five uniforms for each day in a week,three Casual Uniforms on different colors and two sports wears meant for Wednesdays and Fridays. They have their own school hoodies and Shoes also,socks included and others,their students are Gold,just like the school name implies.

But Theo have about three of each uniforms.

After arranging his shoes and everything else,he looked around and sighed out tiredly.

Golden High really upgraded,before,in a room would be three students each,but now they have their own privacy,the room is super spacey and colorful,it's extremely beautiful,not the usual dorms you are thinking of.

He turned off the Air Conditioner,he checked the time on his phone and fell flatly on the bed before closing his eyes. Just above his head is his guitar,one thing Theodore is extremely good at is playing the Violin,He's really amazing in it.

But before he could think of sleeping,the door opened and he sat up.

"What the heck! You scared me!" He screamed when he saw Chelsea.

"I missed you!!" She jumped on him,on the bed,hugging him tightly.

Theodore smiled and hugged her back.

"You look more handsome,your hair" Chelsea chuckled and kissed his cheeks.

"Just coming?" Theodore asked,seeing her bag.

"I came here straight,as soon as mom dropped me" Chelsea said,now laying on the bed,beside him.

Theodore chuckled.

"You missed me right? Coz I couldn't stop thinking about you,even though we were talking on phone,still it's not like seeing you" Chelsea pouted.

"Of course I missed you too,I will walk you to your room,let's go" Theo stood up.

"Carry me" She opened her arm.

"Aniyo(No)" Theo said and Chelsea pouted.

"Jebal(Please)"

"Gosh,you're such a kid" Theodore chuckled and made to carry her,she grabbed his shirt and he fell on top of her.

"What the...."

"Let's sleep for some minutes" Chelsea said.

"You should have said so,what if someone comes in" Theodore groaned and lay beside her.

Chelsea smiled and faced him. .

"Stop staring,you look like you want to swallow me" Theodore muttered.

"I told you I missed you" She mumbled.

Theo said nothing else and closed his eyes. Chelsea continue staring at him for a while before she also closed her eyes.

★

4PM**

The school result notice board was filled up already,the senior results was out and pasted. Some leaving there while some are just coming.

"What's this? What's Theo's name doing in number four?" A girl suddenly called the attention of others.

"Theo?" Isabella and Maxwell exchanged glances.

*Whoa!*

*That's crazy*

*How come? From 30th to 4th*

"move!" Isabella shouted at the students and they all moved away for him and Maxwell.

Rank 1...Maxwell John...89.9 points

Rank 2...Isabella Williams .....85.7 Points

Rank 3...Romina Rodrigo...75.9 Points

Rank 4...Theodore Andrew....74.5 Points

Rank 5....Phoenix Phillips......73.2 Points

Down like that to Rank 30,for the first time,someone who's not Theodore Andrew was sitting at the bottom of the ranks and lists.

"That's impossible" Maxwell mumbled,seeing Theodore's name.

And for the first time in history,Theodore came with Chelsea to check,the students moved out of the way for him as he walked with his usual unbothered face.

He saw his name and said nothing,his express didn't change.

"I'm in 10 again" Chelsea mumbled until she saw Theo's name.

"Wow!!" She screamed and jumped on him.

Theodore chuckled.

His eyes fell on Isabella who shot him a glare before walking away with Maxwell.

**

Theodore was walking alone,Chelsea already went her own way. He was listening to music,his headset on until someone tapped him. He turned and saw Romina,she smiled at him prettily and he removed his headset.

"Hey"

"Hi" Theodore muttered.

"Congrats,I saw your name" She said.

Theodore nodded.

"Thanks"

"You know me right? Romina,I always sit right next to you in class,I don't think you ever noticed tho" She muttered and touched her hair.

"Oh,I see" Theodore nodded and walked away before she could say more.

Romina bite her lips,staring at him till he was out of sight.

[ INTENTIONS ]

.

A WEEK AFTER**

"Ya!!!(Hey!!) here!!!! Ya!!!!!"

Two boys are chasing after Theodore,their uniforms are covered with different colors of paints,of course that's Theodore's work.

But he didn't wait,he was laughing as he was running and having fun as they ran after him,he was pushing every students he meets on his way away.

"Ya!!"

Theodore entered the cafeteria which was filled up with students,they screamed as Theo jumped from one table to another trying to escape.

But at last,he fell and the two boys caught up with him,he was laughing sheepishly as they both beat him up.

"Gosh,He's so annoying" Dakota,Isabella's best friend hissed as she watched Theodore fighting with the boys and throwing food around.

Isabella said nothing and rolled her eyes.

"What's going on here?" Maxwell came in,looking angry the moment he saw Theo.

They stopped fighting.

"Is this the right place to fight? Why acting like idiots?" Maxwell asked.

"Hey,who are you to ask me that question? Do you own the school or what? Because your dad is the principal doesn't give you the right to talk down on the students" Theodore said.

Maxwell scoffed and moved closer to him.

"What about you? Going around and playing nuisance is better?" He asked.

"Oh me? I was just having fun,it was interesting" Theodore muttered and itch his hair.

"You don't even know what you look like" Maxwell said,glaring at him hatefully.

"Of course I know,I look handsome. Don't worry about my dirty uniform,I have more than three of this,if it finishes,I will get more,there are more than enough in school,thanks to your daddy" Theodore chuckled and the students laughed.

Maxwell grabbed his collar.

"Wow,wow,I don't think I said anything bad,why are you so angry?" Theodore asked and pushed him off.

Maxwell wanted to punch him but then. Isabella touched him from the back.

"Do you have to waste your time on someone like him?" She asked.

Theodore looked at her,she glared at him and hissed before taking Maxwell away.

Theodore said nothing and looked at the students who were busy staring at him.

He cleared his throat.

"Do you all want to listen to me playing the Violin tonight? It's free...for wasting your food" He said.

*Yessss!!!*

*Perfect!!*

The students cheers and Theodore grinned before walking out of the cafeteria.

**

Romina was pacing around the passage way,it's the way leading to the boys dorm. She was holding a towel in her hand waiting for Theo to pass,he was looking so dirty earlier with food all over his head.

Few minutes later,she saw him,but not alone,he was walking with Chelsea,to the boys dorm.

Romina bite her lips,watching them laugh together,she hid behind one of the pillars.

"I'm late again" She mumbled.

"I told you not to act silly anymore,are you ever gonna listen?" Chelsea pulled his hair.

"Ouch! That hurts!" Theo screamed and carried her off her foot.

"Ahh!!!" Chelsea screamed out,and laughed.

"Are you gonna pull my ear again?"

"No! Never!"

Romina swallowed hard and immediately walked away.

★

THEODORE'S ROOM**

Theo was busy taking his bath while Chelsea helped him pick another uniform,she dropped it on the bed.

He came out of the bathroom minutes later.

"Hey,don't stare at my chest,its precious" Theo said.

"Dude,you don't even have packs" Chelsea scoffed.

"Don't worry,I'm gonna start working out very soon" Theo boasted.

"I will be waiting" Chelsea laughed.

Some minutes later,he was done wearing his uniform,he ruffled his hair and exhaled.

"I don't want to go to class again" He groaned.

"Don't you dare,bring that" Chelsea took his tie from him.

"No,I don't like it" Theo shook his head.

"Dress like a responsible student for once!" She snapped and started knotting the time around his neck.

"Hurry up before I do something crazy" Theodore muttered.

"Like what?" Chelsea asked.

Theodore chuckled.

"You're quite naughty,I was kidding. You know I won't do anything" He said,checking himself in the mirror after she finished.

Chelsea bite her lips and sighed.

"Let's go,we have five minutes left before the next class"

"Which subject?"

"Chemistry,you should grab your lab coat" Chelsea said.

"It's in my locker,let's go" Theo said and they left the room together.

★

LOCKER ROOM**

Theodore entered and met Isabella there,she was also grabbing something in her locker,she looked at him coldly as usual. Theo said nothing and approached his locker,he opened it with his pass code and was about taking his labcoat when Isabella screamed.

She hit her leg on the locker by mistake,Theo turned immediately.

"Are you okay?" He asked and walked over to her.

"Don't touch me!" Isabella screamed and he moved back.

She tried walking but then screamed again,Theo immediately held her hand.

"Let me help" He said.

"Don't act like we are close,get lost" Isabella said.

"Are you always like this? I just want to help since I'm the only one here....."

"She don't need your help" Maxwell entered and Theodore scoffed.

"Babe" Isabella pouted,stretching her hand to Maxwell.

"Are you okay?" Maxwell asked.

"It hurts,my big toe" Isabella sobs.

"Do you wanna go to the infirmary?" Maxwell asked.

"Aniyo(no) it's fine,let's go to the lab" She said and stood up properly.

"Should I carry you?" Maxwell asked and she immediately nodded.

He carried her amd left the locker room.

"Are they showing off?" Theodore scoffed loudly and closed his locker loudly before going out.

"Why did I even offer to help that brat" he hissed.

★

CHEMISTRY LABORATORY**

"I believe I've been talking for a while now,do you all grab everything I've been saying?" The teacher asked.

*Yes* The students chorused.

"Great,I will start putting you in a group now,you are going to repeat the same practical we just did and answer all the questions accordingly,but before then,I have extra questions here for you,from everything I've said so far,ready?"

The lab was totally silent..

"First question,In acid-base titration, which indicator is used?" He asked.

"Romina" The teacher called.

"A strong acid-strong base titration is carried out using a phenolphthalein indicator" Romina answered.

"Good,next question.What is the distinction between a titrant and an analyte? This question goes to Isabella"

"Titrand/analyte is the solution whose concentration must be calculated. Whereas a titrant/reagent is a known concentration solution that is introduced to another solution whose concentration must be determined." She answered fluently.

He asked five more questions and the students answered,except Theodore who was at the end of the lab,feeling sleepy and not hearing a thing.

"Then,check out your names for your groups" The teacher said and the list of names showed on the board immediately.

Ten groups...four in each groups but some has three students too.

Group 1. Chelsea,Theodore and Isabella

Group 2. Romina,Maxwell,Tristan and Lionel.

Group 3. Dakota,Leo,Cleo and Jerry.

And downward like that.

Immediately Maxwell saw the list,he scoffed.

"Each group,get one table each,the apparatus are there already,we are starting in five minutes.

"This is not gonna be interesting" Isabella rolled her eyes as she grabbed her things,looking for Chelsea and Theodore.

Chelsea tapped Theo and he raised his head.

"You were sleeping?"

"No" Theodore muttered and yawned.

"Are you this lazy? Why would you sleep in the lab?" Isabella asked.

"I don't think it's your business" Chelsea said.

"You're his mouth piece?" Isabella frowned.

Theodore stood up and went to a table,leaving them to exchange words all they want,they joined him later,their table is just next to group two where Maxwell and Romina are.

"You can start,I will be watching everyone,so please be careful with the chemicals" The teacher said.

Isabella grabbed the beaker immediately.

"Be careful,it's acid" Theodore cautioned.

"I'm not dumb" She snapped.

"I'm just telling you,stop being rude" Theodore said and she looked at him with a glare,he glared back.

"What,are you gonna beat me?" He asked.

"I just hate being here....."

"It's not too late,you can get out,I don't like it that you're here either" Theo said.

"I'm not leaving,you can do whatever you want about it" Isabella said

"Then stop being annoying and act like human,we are just partners and nothing else,no one is flirting with you here" Theodore said and Isabella fold her fists.

Theodore ignored her and turned to Chelsea who was already busy.

They started in silence.

"Who's gonna do the calculation?" Chelsea asked. Theodore looked at Isabella,she rolled her eyes.

"I will do it" Theo said and Isabella frowned.

"What about me?" She asked.

"Oh princess,I didn't know I should have bowed in front of you and beg you to do what I can close my eyes and do" Theo said and Chelsea cracked,trying not to laugh.

Isabella frowned hard.

"Then do it let me see" She said.

"I was about doing it before you interrupted" Theo said and looked away from her.

In two minutes,he was already done doing all the calculations.

"Wow,you're the best buddy" Chelsea tapped his cheek and he smiled.

Isabella rolled her eyes and said nothing.

★

7PM_GIRLS DORM_ISABELLA'S ROOM**

Dakota and Cindy sat down on the bed with their phones,Isabella was still getting dressed up,dinner is in few minutes.

Isabella brushed her long straight hair and applied a little lip gloss on her lips,she checked herself out and smiled proudly. She adjusted her mini skirt and her eyes caught with a tiny scratch on her tummy,she was wearing a crop top so her tummy was exposed.

"Ahhhh!!!!!!" She screamed and her friends spranged up.

"Are you okay?!" Dakota asked.

"My precious body!!" Isabella screamed again,rubbing the scratch.

"What happened?"

"Here! See that cut?" She asked,touching it.

Dakota and Cindy saw what she was talking about and exchanged glances,they shook their heads and fell back on the bed.

"What,that cut....."

"It might be your nails,stop being dramatic" Cindy groaned.

"My nails" Isabella mumbled and raised her fingers up,she stared at the painted nails,they are quite long too.

"Even my nails are pretty," she smiled.

"Of course we know,show off" Dakota scoffed and Cindy chuckled.

Isabella faced them.

"But come to think of it" She said and they look up.

"What's that?" Dakota asked.

"How come? All of a sudden? I'm talking about Theodore,he solved those chemistry calculations earlier without any mistake,how come? I know he's dumb" Isabella said.

"I'm amazed too,maybe he finally started to study. Remember his best friend said he just doesn't study,not that he's dumb" Cindy said.

"His best friend? Who?" Isabella raised her brows.

"What do you mean? Chelsea of course" Dakota said.

"Best friends? You mean his girlfriend?" Isabella asked.

"They are not dating" Cindy said.

"Really?! How come they are always together?" Isabella asked unbelievably.

"They are best friends,but I think she has her eyes on him,she's always jealous whenever he's with a girl" Dakota whispers.

Isabella scoffed.

"Who in her right mind would crush on that silly boy? So unfortunate" She rolled her eyes and turned back to the mirror.

They heard the alarm telling them it's time for dinner,the three of them walked out of the room.

"Oh gosh,can't get over the sight view of our school at night like this" Cindy inhaled happily,staring at the beautiful lights and amazing features which always become more beautiful in the night.

The flowers were bringing out beautiful lights and decorations also,in Golden High,the night view is simply the best.

★

7PM_DINNING HALL**

The dinning hall was already filled up with students eating and having fun,so the hall was so loud.

Isabella walked in with Dakota and Cindy,the junior students started greeting her from every angles which she responded to by blowing them kisses.

"See you two later" Isabella smiled and immediately walked over to meet Maxwell on his table with his two friends. Tristan and Jerry.

"Babe" Isabella called and pecked Maxwell's lips before sitting on the empty seat beside him.

"Can you two ever stop making me jealous?" Jerry touched his chest.

"Sorry baby" Tristan tapped Jerry's chest and Jerry slapped his hand off.

"Are you crazy?"

They all laughed.

The school kitchen servants can be see walking around and taking the students orders,one came for Isabella.

"What do you want please?" She asked.

"Can I get fried rice? Fried chicken too,brown one with....uhm...pineapple juice" Isabella said and tied her hair up into a ponytail.

"Ahh" She opened her mouth for Maxwell and he fed her,he placed his lips on hers and she chuckled.

"Don't be naughty" She said.

"You're just irresistible" Maxwell said and kept feeding her till her own food was brought.

Leo and Cleo are the only ones in their own booth,simply because Cleo wouldn't allow any girl coming to sit with her brother. They are twins and Leo is absolutely one of the most handsome face in that school,He's hot too with amazing figure,but aside his sister,then you can't find any other girl with him,sorry to disappoint you.

Not just girls,he doesn't have any friends at all. Those two are like metal and magnet,can't be separated.

Meanwhile,Romina was alone as usual,eating and looking around trying to find Theo but he was nowhere in the dinning hall,she sighed and kept on eating.

Some minutes later,Theo walked in with Chelsea and the students started screaming,he was holding his violin in his hand like he promised.

Chelsea smiled and sat with Phoenix,they are also quite close but Chelsea spends most of her time with Theo.

"Finally,someone remembers me" Phoenix rolled her eyes.

"Sorry" Chelsea pouted.

"Of course I understand,if I was you,I wouldn't let him go either,He's too handsome to ignore" Phoenix winked.

"Stop" Chelsea chuckled.

"Guys,are you ready?!" Theodore asked.

*Yes!!!!!* the students chorused.

Maxwell scoffed,Isabella kept eating without raising her head.

Theodore played the beat first on the mini wireless speaker

*Ahhhh!!!!!*

*Oh my!!*

It's,INTENTIONS by Justin Bieber.

"This is dedicated to someone here,someone hot" He winked naughtily.

*Who!!!*

"Just guess" He chuckled and started playing the violin,his eyes closed,his fingers moving so fast both on the violin bow and the strings.

*Whoa!!*

*He's so hot,I can't!!!*

*Who said Maxwell is more handsome,they are definitely blind!!!*

*I'm so jealous of that girl!!!*

*I think it's for Chelsea,OMG!!*

Chelsea was blushing where she was sitting.

Some of the students humming and singing along while listening,some of the dorm supervisors weren't left out,they really came out to watch him play.

After he finished,the students screamed out loudly with claps.

*We love you Theo!!!*

*You're amazing!!*

Theo smiled as the girls flooded around him,Chelsea rolled her eyes where she was sitting.

Theo's eyes met with Isabella's own,she didn't look away as usual,he smiled at her before turning back to the girls.

"What the heck?" Isabella scoffed and rolled her eyes.

Romina saw that and bite her lips.

"What happened?" Maxwell asked Isabella,seeing her expression.

"Oh...." Her eyes met with Theo's own again.

"Nothing" She mumbled and sipped from her juice.

[ FIRST CHALLENGE ]

.

Isabella was walking with Dakota and Cindy beside her,they were talking and laughing,only Isabella was quiet,she suddenly stopped and faced them.

"Why are you two following me?" She asked.

"We are sleeping in your room tonight" Cindy winked and Isabella scoffed.

"On the floor,I'm not giving up my bed for anyone of you" She said.

"I think the bed should be enough for three" Dakota said and immediately they ran off,climbing the stairs before Isabella since she's staying on the second floor.

"Those pests" She rolled her eyes.

She was about going into her room when she saw Romina coming,she actually passed the other side leading into the girls dorm,and her room was just two rooms away from hers. Romina also saw her but she looked away first and went into her room,closing the door loudly.

"Is she planning on breaking the door or what?" Isabella scoffed and entered her room.

Dakota and Cindy were already on the bed with their phones.

"Dummies! You two should get rid of those phones,it's almost study time" Isabella said.

Cindy checked the time and groaned,it's almost 9pm.

"Gosh I hate this school,why must we study again after all those hours we spend studying in class?" She asked.

"Now I see why you're in the 15th place,how the heck did we end up as friends?" Isabella asked,getting rid of her clothes.

She put on her pyjamas and settled on her study table.

"Talking about that,isn't it weird?" Dakota asked and she turned.

"Weird? What?" Isabella asked.

"How Theo,from number thirty to number four?" Dakota asked.

"Maybe he cheated" Cindy laughed.

"Cheated? How? You know the school rules,how can he possibly cheat?" Dakota scoffed.

"I'm just saying,it's surprising" Cindy muttered and got down from the bed.

Isabella said nothing,she remembered the way Theo had solved the chemistry questions earlier without making a mistake and she sighed.

"This is my favorite" Cindy smiled,taking out one of Isabella's pyjamas, the pink one.

"I'm taking the blue" Dakota said.

Isabella ignored them,she already started studying.

"Do we have any assignment today?" Cindy asked after getting changed.

"No" Dakota replied.

"Then I'm sleeping" Cindy mumbled and climbed on the bed.

"Me too" Dakota groaned.

They both fell beside each other and slept.

Isabella shook her head and chuckled. Her phone beeped and she immediately took it,she got a text from Maxwell.

💌 GOODNIGHT PRETTIEST🤗

She returned the text and dropped her phone to continue studying.

**

"Can't I just sleep with you tonight?" Chelsea pouted as Theo walked her to her room.

"What if someone hear that?" Theo looked around and she laughed.

"First time seeing you scared" She said

"I'm not scared,what are you saying?" Theodore scoffed.

"But I'm going to miss you" Chelsea said

"You are going to see me tomorrow morning,so stop the drama and go in" Theo said,stopping in front of the girls dorm entrance.

"Fine then,goodnight" Chelsea waved.

Theo smiled and waved back,she came back to kiss his cheek before running away

"Gosh,she's an headache" Theo muttered.

"Seriously? Those two aren't dating? They are just friends? Irony" Isabella scoffed,she was watching from upstairs,she was still there when Theo looked up,before she could think of turning away,he saw her and their eyes met.

Theodore didn't waste time before running to take the staircase.

"Don't tell me he's coming here" Isabella's eyes widened when she saw that.

Soon,Theo showed up and she frowned.

"What are you doing here?" Isabella asked.

"I just came to see how this place looks like,maybe it's better than ours" Theo said,walking pass her.

Isabella crossed her arms and looked at him.

"Are you sure that's why you're Here?"

Theo faced her.

"What,are you wishing I came because of you?" He asked.

Isabella laughed out.

"Are you a comedian? Gosh"

Theo smiled.

"What,is your boyfriend better than me?" He asked.

"Double that,He's better,really" She said.

"How?" Theo moved closer.

"I don't need to say it,you know" Isabella said.

Theodore chuckled.

"Goodnight" he muttered and before she could blink again,he was gone.

Isabella scoffed and went into her room.

★

NEXT MORNING_CLASSROOM**

The maths teacher was already in class,it's been about thirty minutes since the class started,only Theodore wasn't in class yet.

Chelsea secretly checked her phone to see if he returned her text but nothing like that,Romina was also worried,she kept staring at the empty seat beside her.

Just then,Theodore walked into the class looking like someone who was forced to come to class. He was holding his tie in his hand,there are three buttons undone on his shirt, and his hair looked so fluffy,his two hands were in his pockets. He wanted to walk to his seat before the teacher called him back.

"Theodore Andrew" He called.

Theo rolled his eyes and turned back.

"Are you seriously just coming?" The teacher asked.

"As you can see" Theo mumbled.

"Can I know the reason? This class started thirty minutes ago and you're just coming?"

"No matter how much I try,sleeping is not enough for me" Theo replied and the class bursts into laughter.

"What? Are you really a student? Why are you dressed like a street thug?" The teacher asked.

Theo said nothing.

"This is the reason why you're always the last in class,aren't you ashamed? Just because you were favored to go up to the forth rank doesn't mean your brain is that sharp......" The teacher was still saying when Theo yawned.

The class laughed out again.

The teacher glared at him furiously.

"Come solve this if you want to stay in my class......."

"I don't want to stay" Theodore muttered and was about going out.

"I will be the one to decide that,solve this question for us,you're getting punished once you get it wrong"

The teacher wrote a long equation on the board,the whole class started murmuring.

*What the f**k is that?*

*I've never seen such question*

*He's in trouble I guess*

Isabella was trying to capture the equation but she couldn't.

"What the heck" She mumbled and looked at Maxwell who seems confused as well.

"I don't think that question is correct,I don't understand a thing" He said.

Romina also shook her head.

"Mr Andrew,go solve that" The teacher said and shifted away from the board.

Theodore stared at the equation and took one of the white board marker,he walked to the board and began solving one after the other.

The whole student were confused but the teacher wasn't confused,he was shocked,the first and second steps he took was something he shouldn't think of as an high school student.

In less than two minutes,Theodore got the answer.

He dropped the marker and walked to his seat without waiting for the teacher to speak.

Everyone was quiet,waiting for the teacher to speak up. The maths teacher stared at the solution on the board and looked at Theo.

"How did you do that?" He asked.

"The way it should be done" Theo replied.

"That's perfectly correct" The teacher said

*Whoaaaa!!!*

The students started clapping.

Theo rolled his eyes and put his head on his desk,his eyes closed immediately.

"What is he?" Romina mumbled,staring at Theo in shock.

"Guys,that question is not an high school question" The teacher said.

*That's crazy*

*How did he do that?*

*Does magic exist?*

*Or maybe it's true that he's been pretending??*

*He always fail on purpose?*

*What the h*ll*

Maxwell was fuming with anger where he was sitting.

"Isabella,say something" Cindy whispers from her back.

Isabella sighed and threw a candy in her mouth without saying a word,she looked at Theodore who was already out of the zone and she chuckled before shaking her head.

MINUTES LATER**

As soon as the maths teacher walked out of the class,Chelsea came over to Theo's seat,he was just opening his eyes.

"Hey" She frowned.

"Don't scold me,I'm not feeling fine" Theo said and Chelsea hit him on the back.

"Ouch"

"You seriously slept off?" She asked and Theo nodded.

Just then,a staff came in with a new boy,he was already in his uniform tho. The class started murmuring.

*Wow,He's so handsome*

*New student*

"Morning kids,as you can see,you have a new friend here" He said,smiling before facing the boy.

"Introduce yourself"

"Angelo Park" The boy said and smiled handsomely.

There are some who aren't interested tho,Like Chelsea and Theo,they are still busy with their childish argument. Romina's eyes not leaving them,wishing she's Chelsea,while Isabella was glaring at them before scoffing out.

"For the school tour,pick anyone you want to show you around" the staff said to Angelo.

"Him" He pointed at Theo without thinking.

"Theodore!"

Theo turned immediately.

"Please show Angelo around when you're less busy"

"Me? Why?" Theo asked.

"He choose you,Angelo,please go take a seat"

Angelo walked over to the empty seat on Theo's left side,Romina was on his right.

"Nice to meet you" Angelo said.

"Same here,but you should choose someone else,I'm always busy" Theodore said.

"Wow,always busy reading?" Angelo asked.

"Sleeping" Theodore said and Chelsea laughed.

"For real? I love sleeping too" Angelo smiled.

"What the heck" Chelsea laughed again.

"You're pretty" Angelo said to her.

"Thanks" Chelsea smiled.

"That's enough,you can go back now. I don't like guys complimenting you in front of me" Theo said,pushing Chelsea away and she left.

"Is she your girlfriend?" Angelo asked.

"Nope" Theo replied and the History teacher came in.

"Gosh,it's going to be a long day" Theo mumbled and closed his eyes.

"Wow" Angelo said,looking surprised.

★

LUNCH TIME**

Theo looked left and right to see if Angelo was coming,he was trying to avoid him because of the school tour he asked for,he found an empty class and immediately opened it,he entered and closed the door before sighing out.

"That dude is gonna be a pain" he scoffed and turned only to find Romina looking at him,she was sitting with countless books on the table,she was studying.

"Hi" Romina said,hoping he would reply.

"What are you doing here?" Theodore asked and walked closer.

"Studying" Romina replied.

Theodore sat down on the desk next to hers while facing her.

"Isn't it lunch? You don't want to eat?" He asked.

"It's always boring" Romina mumbled.

"Why?"

"Because I'm alone" She responded.

"Oh" Theo muttered and said nothing after that.

"But....do you know me...like quite well?" Romina asked.

"Who wouldn't know the class doll?" Theo asked and Romina blinked.

"Doll? Me?"

"Your eyes are pretty,and I love your hair bangs too,you look like a doll" Theodore tried to explain,but if only he knew that someone was burning up.

Romina's face was totally red,she couldn't control it.

"But,why are you asking if I know you?" Theo asked.

"You've never spoke to me...."

"I don't speak with anyone except Chelsea" Theo scoffed.

"I'm jealous of her.......I want to be an exception too" Romina said and Theodore stared at her blankly.

"Why are you here?" She asked.

"Because I'm hiding from an annoying person" He replied.

"The new boy? Angelo?" Romina asked and Theodore nodded.

"Do you come here to read everyday?"

"The library is annoying" Romina replied and Theo chuckled.

"And I....." She was interrupted by Theo's phone which started ringing.

"Hey,dummy,why would you call me during school hour? You want to get spanked?" Theo asked...it's Chelsea.

"Where are you?" she asked and he noticed her soft voice which made him stand up immediately.

"You,where are you? Did something happened?" He asked.

"Infirmary"

"Huh? Why?....I will be right there" Theo said and ran out immediately.

Romina sighed out.

"He cares so much about her" She mumbled.

★

SCHOOL INFIRMARY**

"Chelsea?" Theo ran into the ward where she was.

"Hug" She spread her arms immediately and Theo gave her a quick hug.

"Are you okay?"

Chelsea shook her head.

"I hate period cramps" She broke into tears.

Theodore sighed out and touched his chest.

"I was worried,I thought something serious happened,do you wanna kill me?" He groaned.

"Is this not serious? My tummy is hurting me like hell" She cried.

Theo moved closer to her and wiped her tears.

"Did you take any drugs already?" He asked.

Chelsea nodded and hugged him.

"But still it hurts" She muttered.

"You will be fine" Theo said,rubbing her back.

"I'm hungry too" Chelsea pouted and Theo broke the hug.

"You should rest,I will get you something to eat,what do you want?" He asked.

"I don't want you to leave me though" Chelsea said.

Theodore sighed out loudly.

"I pity your future boyfriend,He's going to suffer" he muttered.

Chelsea rolled her eyes.

"I want...hamburger....."

"Never,I'm getting you something bitter" Theodore said.

"What?! Don't do that" Chelsea shouted.

"So you can use that tummy excuse on me and sleep with me tonight? Never" Theo shook his head.

"You're being so petty right now,I won't come to your room,so please get me my hamburger if you don't want to see madness" Chelsea said.

"Yes boss" Theo chuckled and went out of the ward.

Chelsea fell on the bed and closed her eyes while rubbing her stomach which was still hurting her like hell.

**

Theodore made to leave the classroom after getting his smart card,each student in Golden High have one which they use in buying things,only the food provided in the cafeteria and dining hall is free. Other places like the ice cream shop,hamburger stand,coffee shop and other places in school where different snacks and foods are sold,the students use their smart card.

Their parents would have sent enough for them before they can use it,the smart card wouldn't work if there's no money.

For Theo,he has never ever reached his limit. That's probably the only thing his parents knows how to do,just money money money,they don't care how he use it though,they just spoiled him with too much.

The moment he was about going out,someone bumped into him and immediately stained his uniform with cold coffee.

"Dann" he groaned,staring at his shirt.

"I'm.....sorry" He heard the soft pretty voice and he looked up...it's Isabella,of course he would recognize that voice.

"Never knew you've got a soft voice like that" He said.

"What should I do now? It was a mistake" Isabella said.

"You just ruined my shirt" Theo muttered,staring at her face.

"Stop staring at me that way" Isabella said.

"It's my eyes not yours....."

"It's my face not yours....."

"What's going on here?" Maxwell interrupted.

Theodore rolled his eyes.

"Oh I poured my coffee on his shirt and....."

"Leave" Maxwell cut Isabella off and she immediately went out.

"Do you seriously talk to her like that?" Theodore frowned.

Maxwell threw an handkerchief on his face.

"Get yourself cleaned and stay away from my girlfriend" He said.

Theodore threw the handkerchief back at him.

"You don't tell me what to do,I hate it" He said and walked out,pushing Maxwell out of his way.
