• PEACHES HIGH SCHOOL •
Different cars of different colors and sizes could be seen driving inside the prestigious building of Peaches high school.
It was the most influential school in the whole of California.
Only the well-offs have the privilege to send their kids to a school like peaches high.
You'd see any kind of behavior from the students who always depend on their parents for almost everything.
Looking for stubborn and rebellious kids, you'd find them in peaches high.
Fashion freaks, spoilt kids, bratty kids, and more you could name are all in peaches school.
There's no way a school like peaches will be complete without having handsome boys who every girl would go crazy for.
Jr is the school's heartthrob, almost all the girls in peaches high school have a crush on him.
Who won't blame them anyways, he is just the right word for PERFECTIONISM.
Speaking of height, handsome face, embodied body, nice voice, intelligence, best smile, best winks, sexy eyes, kissable lips, broad chest... Jr has it all, he didn't miss out on anything.
So who won't have a crush on him?
Some of the boys in peaches high without functioning brains are all jealous of him.
He is the face of the school and also the best student in peaches high, so every girl always uses their studies as an excuse to sit next to him and inhale his strawberry fragrance.
One of the girls in peaches high who has a crush on Jr is Cat Soriano.
She is one of the popular girls in school and her family is ranked 4th in the wealthiest families in California.
Cat might be pretty with her cat eyes, but she falls under the category of student with bratty behavior, you can add annoying behavior if you want to.
She kept smiling as she waited patiently for Jr to come to the school.
Her driver has earlier dropped her off in one of her luxurious cars.
School uniforms weren't required in peaches high school, so the only way you'd gain entrance inside the building is through the school's card.
Peaches high school has a key card for its students and that's what they used in entering the building that looks like a skyscraper.
The poor breeds who don't have the privilege to go to peaches high always wonder if it was a school or just a show-off.
"I hope he likes my gift," Cat said to herself smiling from ear to ear.
She was holding a shopping bag containing a strawberry perfume.
She plans on giving it to Jr.
It's his favorite perfume and that's why he always smells like strawberries.
A black limousine found its way inside the school, and after it halted, a girl stepped out of the car.
That's Margo Torres, Peaches's high queen.
Her family is ranked the 3rd in the richest families in California, and her family contributed to the development of the school.
No surprise, she falls under the category of spoiled kids, with a top notch of possessed behavior.
She flings her red hair and walks up to Cat who was still waiting for Jr.
Margo always dyes her hair RED, she is famous in school for always dyeing her hair red and her hourglass body.
She is beautiful but her character...
"What are you doing?" Margo asked Cat.
"I'm waiting for Jr" Cat replies.
They are best friends because they have the same character. Perfect example of birds of the same feathers flocking together.
"Jr?" She asked, looking annoyed.
Margo might be annoying but she isn't in the categories of girls that have a huge crush on Jr.
She prefers Owen Bautista to Jr.
In terms of reputation, Owen has the highest reputation in school, cuz his family owns peaches high school, which made him to be pompous and rude.
"I get that Jr is handsome and a perfectionist, but what do you even see in him? He doesn't have a ranking in school, cuz no one knows anything about him. He doesn't even have a surname, and we don't know if his family is rich or not" Margo said.
Margo doesn't mingle with anyone who is from a poor background and that's why her whole interest is on Owen.
"Just because we don't know anything about his family means he is poor. Peaches high doesn't offer scholarships to any student, and that's why no poor breeds schools here. Doesn't it ring a bell that Jr is from an influential family?" Cat asked.
No doubts she is so blinded by her love for Jr.
"Then why keep his family a secret?"
"I don't know and I don't want to know," Cat said.
She squeals in excitement when Jr enters the school building with his bike.
He's the only one that comes to school with a bike, but girls don't focus on that.
Their whole attention is all on his face and height.
"He is finally here," Cat said and rushed to him.
Margo rolled her eyes and went to look for Owen, who loves being on his own.
As always girls were already flocking themselves at him like sheep.
They were showering him with multiple gifts.
There's no day Jr doesn't go home without gifts.
"All of you should get lost!" Cat orders.
The girls respected her decision, cuz she has one of the highest standards in school.
"Hi Jr." She smiled at him.
"Hey, Cat. What's up?" Jr asked with a smile.
He is the extrovert type, so he speaks freely with everyone.
"I'm fine. I got you a gift" Cat handed the shopping bag to him.
"Thanks" He accepted it, and packed his bike.
So many gifts were in his hand so he had to leave it in the care of the gatekeeper.
Even the gatekeeper is used to keeping tons of gifts for Jr.
"Let's go in together" Cat said trying to hold his hand but Jr stepped backwards.
"I can be friendly but don't ..."
"Don't touch me" Cat completes his sentence for him.
"Why do you hate physical contact? You even refuse to date someone too. Are you scared of giving your heart to someone?" Cat asked.
She is so badly wishing to be his girlfriend.
Knowing the kind of background he came from, Jr only spoke after a few silence.
"I will go ahead, thanks for the gift"
"Wait for me!" Cat rushed to him.
Both use their key cards and they gain access inside.
The inside was like HEAVEN.
Just as Jr was about going to class, he met students gathering in the hallway.
He instantly knew Owen was at it again.
Jr finds his way to the center, and he sees Owen doing what he knows how to do best.
Bullying!
The rest of the students were just watching as Owen drew a map on the innocent boy's face with a slap.
No one can stop him except for Jr.
"Don't you ever get tired? Or do you find your daily bread in bullying?" Jr asked.
Jr's fans were already smiling, and that got Owen so angry.
He hates Jr a lot, cuz despite being the highest ranking student and the son to the founder of peaches high, Jr is still the center of attention despite always coming to school with his bike.
Owen left the boy he was bullying and grabbed Jr's shirt.
"Do you want to die so badly?!" Owen shouts at him.
"Then kill me and become a murderer. Won't it be nice, if your family's reputation gets ruined? I will die happily knowing you're in jail" Jr said and knowingly gave him a smile that will make you wanna kill him.
Owen lifted his hand to punch Jr but was held back by Kendrick.
Kendrick is Jr's friend, he is famous in school for being skilled in taekwondo.
"Do you want me to punch you instead?" Kendrick asked.
Owen took his hand forcefully from Kendrick and walked away.
"Owen!" Margo went after him.
Jr helped the boy who was bullied and one after the other the student began to go to their various classes through the elevators.
"What?" Jr asked when he saw Kendrick glaring at him.
"Why can't you mind your business?"
"You mean I should allow Owen to bully students?"
"Just mind your business. You can't even throw a punch and yet you kept meddling in Owen's business" Kendrick said, and Jr smiled lightly.
If only he knew Jr is pretending, he won't be saying such.
"What's the smile for?" He asked, Jr just shook his head.
"Babe!" Yasmeen jumps on Kendrick, while May-May, who always follows Yasmeen everywhere she goes, stays quiet.
May-May is the quiet type who doesn't like talking.
Yasmeen falls in the category of fashion freaks. She'd die if peaches high decided to invent their uniforms.
Kendrick is her boyfriend so the four of them are practically friends.
"Cutie" Kendrick pecks Yasmeen.
He calls her cute, cuz Yasmeen is so cute... she has the face of a baby.
"Hi May-May" Jr and Kendrick waved to her, but she said nothing.
The three of them are used to her quietness.
"Owen almost beat up Jr" Kendrick announced, hanging his hand on Yasmeen's shoulder.
"Why did I miss out? It would have been fun!"
"Really? Do you even consider me your friend?" Jr asked.
"I do, but I always stand in for Vawulence"
"Kendrick, are you sure your girlfriend isn't a witch?" Jr asked.
"Do you want to be buried alive?" Kendrick defends Yasmeen.
"I forgot you both are crazy over each"
"Then get a girlfriend. All the girls in school love you, pick one" Kendrick said.
"I'm not interested" Jr said in a low voice, but they heard him anyway.
"Why?"
"You won't understand"
"Elaborate it for us," Yasmeen said.
The sound of the school bell was heard indicating it was time for classes to begin.
Jr smiled.
"See you both in class" He leaves.
"Where should we go after school?" Kendrick asked Yasmeen as they walked one step after another to the class.
They don't get sanctioned if they come late to class, so there was no need rushing.
May-May followed Yasmeen quietly from the back, eating her fingernails.
Her nails don't grow long cuz she always eats it with her teeth.

In the street and under the sun, Swan was giving out flyers wearing a teddy bear outfit.
She was dying of suffocation but she needs to share these flyers before she will take it off.
It was an order given to her by the owner of a chicken restaurant she works for.
She even had to dance funnily just to gain the attention of the public.
"Aren't you tired?" A female voice asked her from behind.
Swan took off the head of the teddy bear.
"Mrs. Lane!" She hugs her.
She takes Mrs. Lane as her mother after her own mother died of cancer.
"My angel is sweating all over" Mrs. Lane said, and Swan played along by pouting her lips.
"It's so suffocating, my eyes hurt, my nose hurts too, even my lips too. Maybe some cold soda and pizza will make me well again" Swan said and fainted on the ground.
Mrs. Lane laughed cuz she is used to Swan's drama.
"Stop misbehaving and stand up"
Swan remains stiff on the ground.
"Fine! Let's grab some pizza" Mrs. Lane said and Swan quickly stood up.
"I thought you fainted?"
"I have unfainted myself," Swan answered.
Mrs. Lane laughed.
*
*
*
Swan kept munching the pizza in excitement and gulping it down with cold soda.
She loves Pizza.
"Since you love pizza a lot, why don't you work in a pizza shop?"
"You want me to get fired before two seconds? I'd eat up the pizza before it gets to the customer"
"Crazy girl," Mrs. Lane laughed.
"School resumed a week ago, why aren't you in school?"
"I dropped out," Swan answered, munching her pizza.
"Why?"
"I want to make more money. School is a waste of time, I need to clear my parents' debts. If I go to school, I will do part-time jobs, and it's not compared to the payment from full-time jobs''
"But still you need to go to school"
"I don't have the money to pay for my tuition neither do I have the brain to write a scholarship exam"
Mrs. Lane brought a form from her bag and gave it to Swan.
"What's this?"
"It belongs to the daughter of the family I work for. Her name is Swan Hayes, while yours is Swan Lake"
"And?"
"She was supposed to be a student of peaches high school. All her fees and everything has been paid for, all she needed to do was to fill the form and become part of peaches high, but she got into an accident while having a vacation in Korea. She fell into coma, so her family moved to Korea to take care of her until she wakes up"
"Why are you telling me this?" Swan asked.
"Pretend to be her. You both have the same name and since no one has seen her before, they won't know you are not her" Mrs. Lane said
"You want me to go to peaches high and pretend to be someone else simply because she bears my name?"
"Yes. She isn't waking up anytime soon cuz she suffered a terrible accident"
Swan dropped the form and stood up.
"I can't do it"
"Why Swan? It's an opportunity for you to go to school"
"Even so Mrs. Lane. I can't pretend to be someone else. Peaches high is a school for the rich!"
"We can always find a way"
"I can't go to that school because I will just kill those bratty and spoiled kids like mosquitoes, and most importantly I can't pretend to be someone else. I'm Swan Lake not Swan Hayes"
Swan leaves before Mrs. Lane could talk more.

Swan kept kicking a can as she walked on the street.
It was late already but she had one more job to do.
"Pretend to be someone else" She scoffs.
"Never" She added and continued walking, but she was blocked by some groups of thugs.
She knows them cuz she beat them up some time ago.
Swan heaves.
"Dumbasses"
"Did you just call us Dumbasses?" One of them asked.
"Yes I did. Do you want to get beaten up again?" She asked making a fist with her hand.
Before she knew it, some thugs began uprooting themselves from different corners.
"Will you be able to fight us all?"
Swan used her eyes to count the thugs and they were up to twenty three, it's not something she can do alone.
"Look over there," She exclaimed.
They foolishly looked and Swan used that medium to run, but they went after her anyways.
"Should I get you lollipops too?" Jr asked as he walked down the street.
He was talking to his kid sister on the phone.
Swan was still on the run when she came across Jr.
She looked behind her and she saw the thugs coming to her in rage.
Swan quickly held Jr's hand and he looked at her with widened eyes, cuz he had never met her before.
"Don't think about touching me, I swear down, he's going to send you all to the surgery room" Swan said, holding Jr's hand tightly.
"And who the heck is he?" One of them asked.
"He is.... He is my boyfriend!"
"He is.... He is my boyfriend!"
Jr looked at her immediately.
He was speechless. He is sure he hasn't never met her in his entire life so why introduce him to them as her boyfriend?
"I'm warning you all, he is going to disfigure your bones if you don't leave" Swan said, with her hand still on Jr's.
The leader of the gang smirked and walked closer to them.
"You are the one who's bones will be disfigured, bïtch!" He tried raising his hand to Swan's face, but Jr caught it.
"What do you think you are doing?" He asked calmly, but he was misshaping the man's hand.
He groans in pain as Jr did that, why Swan smiled.
"Why are they after you?" Jr asked.
His eyes were on Swan, but he was still crushing the man's hand.
"I didn't do anything wrong... they want to rape me!" Swan said, wearing an innocent face.
Jr increased the volume of how he held the man's hand.
He gave the man a kick that sent him to a distance and his minions rushed to him.
"Boss, are you okay?" They all asked.
"If you don't want to die, then bring that boy to me!" The leader of the gang ordered in rage.
He can no longer straight his hand.
His minions went to Jr ready to fight with him.
Jr counted the men in front of him and he smirked.
The men were twenty-three in number, but bringing them wailing on the ground will be as simple as putting food in your mouth.
This time around, he was the one who held Swan's hand and he hides her behind his back.
"Don't leave my side" He said to her and Swan nodded her head and smiled softly.
"Who wants to go down first?" Jr asked fearlessly.
"You will be the one to go down kid!"
They all rushed to him at once, but Jr kept sending them back with his kicks and punches.
They didn't even get a chance to touch him.... The men were just flying to different directions.
Swan was amazed, she kept smiling as she watch Jr fought with the men without any atom of stress.
In no time, the men were all on the ground, groaning in pain.
"If you don't leave on the count of five, I'd send you to the surgery room like she said"
"You heard my boyfriend, he is going to send you all to the surgery room or maybe the morgue" Swan said from behind Jr.
A pretty girl with a charming smile.
The men ran away as fast as they could.
Some couldn't run properly cuz they sustained injuries from Jr's beating.
Swan laughed so hard as she watch them run and then she face Jr, smiling.
"That was so awesome dude! I felt like I was watching a live kung-fu. You were sending them to different corners, it was so epic. You're the real deal" Swan gave Jr a playful punch on the shoulder, laughing.
"Do we know each other?" Jr asked.
"No we don't"
"Why did you say I was your boyfriend?"
"I was just trying to save myself" She answered.
"Trying to save yourself? What if I didn't know how to fight?"
"But you did anyways, and you were amazing" Swan gave him a thumbs up.
"Why are you patrolling around the streets? Do you even know how dangerous it is at night?" He sighs.
He bent down and began lacing her sneakers.
"You shouldn't be walking about at night. It's not safe" He stood up and he sees Swan smiling at him.
"What's the smile for? I didn't say anything funny"
"It's because you're handsome. Where have you been all this while?"
"Just go home" He said to her and tried to leave, but Swan blocked his part.
"What do you want?" He asked
"I just want to say thank you"
"It's nothing. Can I go now?"
"My name is Swan Lake, can I have your number?" Swan asked, smiling.
"Why should I give you my number?" Jr asked.
"Because you are handsome. I love handsome guys and you are sêxy too, and knows martial arts"
"I don't give strangers my number" Jr said and tried to walk away, but Swan blocked him again, placing her left leg on the wall.
"I'm not a stranger, I already told you my name, Swan Lake. Who knows if you give me your number, you might end up loving me" She smiled.
"In your dreams Swan princess" He takes her leg down from the wall and walked away.
"Can you at least tell me your name?!" She said in a loud voice.
Jr restrained his feet and turned.
"Call me whatever you want" He continues walking.
"I'm going to call you prince-charming! I won't go back to my words!"
Jr smiled lightly, but he continued walking.
Swan chuckled and then she spotted something lying on the ground.
She picked it up and it was the key card to peaches high school.
It has Jr's picture and name on it.
"He is a student of peaches high? I thought all the students there are possessed? Jr" She muttered the name that was written on the key card.
"Nah! I prefer Prince-charming to Jr.
"Peaches high" Swan muttered and smiled.

Jr came home and met his sister sleeping on the couch.
She slept off while waiting for Jr to come back home.
Her name is kitten, she is eleven years old in elementary school.
Jr drops his backpack and walked to her.
He didn't come home straight cuz he went to his part-time jobs after school dismissed.
"Kitten" He called her name, but she is a deep sleeper, so she couldn't hear him.
Jr chuckled and carried her to her room.
Kitten has so many balls in her room cuz she is a lover of handball and baseball games.
Jr placed her carefully on the bed and covered her with a mattress.
He smiled watching his sister sleep peacefully, but the smile faded away, cuz he got a call from his father.
A man he hates so much.
Jr left kitten's room and went to his, then he answered the phone.
"Why are you calling me?" Jr asked.
"Shane...."
"It's Jr and not Shane!"
"From what I can remember, the name I gave you was Shane. I allowed you to live like a different person because you begged me to, so don't push me to the wall" Rocco said.
"What do you want from me?" Jr asked with misty eyes.
He was fed up living as Rocco's son.
"I want you at the clan tomorrow night. It's the price you have to pay if you want your sister to be safe"
Jr clenched his fist and fought back the tears that were tempting to come out from his eyes.
"Kitten is also your daughter!"
"I don't care. Do as I have said, and you won't have problems living as Jr" He ends the call.
Jr hits his hand on the table frustratedly.
After his mom ran away, Jr has been like a pawn to Rocco.
Kitten is his only family, and he'd do anything to protect her.
*I am going to call you Prince-charming*
He also recalled how Swan held his hand... She is the first girl apart from Kitten that has touched him.
He didn't even know when he let out a smile.

In the luxurious room of Margo, she is seen picking out a dress to wear to school tomorrow.
She always tries to dress her best so Owen can notice her.
"What do you think of this dress?" Margo asked Cat.
She is in a video call with her.
"Does Owen even have taste at all? I doubt that" Cat said.
Margo could see her arranging different kinds of strawberries perfumes on her dressing table.
"Since when do you have a love for strawberries perfumes"
"In order to make an impression on Jr, I should do what he loves best" Cat said spritzing the perfumes all over body.
"Speaking of Jr, there's something fishy about him"
"Like what?"
"I think he is hiding something from everyone in school"
"You're the only one having that mindset. Have you found the crazy girl that smashed a bottle on your head the last time you went to the hamburger restaurant?"
"No I haven't. She shouldn't dare show her face to me again, cuz she'd regret being birthed from a poor breed"

•NEXT DAY•
"Tell me you're joking and I will believe you" Mrs. Lane said to Swan.
"I'm not joking, I'm dead serious"
"Why did you change your mind all of a sudden? You were so determined that you won't go to peaches high pretending to be Swan Hayes instead of Swan Lake"
Swan sat down giggling.
"I curious about someone, and since I'm curious about him, I need to be close to him" She smiled.
"Who exactly?"
Swan brought out Jr's key card and gave it to her.
"Where did you get this from? Wait, this is peaches high key card, no one can get inside the building without it, so how is it in your custody when you are not a student there?"
"It belongs to my prince-charming"
"Prince-charming? Who's that?" Mrs. Lane asked and her eyes went to the picture in the key card.
Peaches high school always make sure their students have their pictures on their key cards.
"OMG! Did he fall from the sky?"
"You can say that over and over again. He is super handsome, he can take down hundred men without blinking an eye. Real definition of stunning" Swan said demonstrating.
She loves talking, so she always uses her hands to demonstrate anytime she talks.
"Let me take a guess, you want to go to that school because of him, right?"
Swan began clapping her hands.
"Wow Mrs. Lane, you're the world best guesser"
Mrs. Lane hits her head a little.
"Ouch! Why Mrs. Lane!"
"Here I thought you changed your mind because you wanted to go there and study, but it's all because of some guy?"
"He is not just some guy Mrs. Lane. I swear down if you see him live, you'd wish you were in your teens so you'd date him. Have you seen him when he is fighting? Oh my! He is like an action movie star. I mean how can he be cute, sêxy, and gorgeous at the same time. I feel like dying cuz I have gotten my life achievement, God take me, I'm already!" Swan said loudly and Mrs, Lane hits her head again.
Swan laughs.
"I know you love talking, but can you quit talking and plan how you'd live your life as Swan Hayes"
"I'm not going to live as her"
"Then how are you going to go to peaches high?"
"How about we come clean with Swan Hayes's parents. We can tell them the truth" Swan said
"What if they don't agree to it?"
"It's more better we make an attempt than lie to them. Her parents might call us fraudsters and put us behind bars"
"What about the kids there? If they find out you're taking Swan Hayes place until she wakes up, they'd bully you"
Swan laughs.
"I'm Swan Lake, you think I will let that happen. I have no intention of lying to anyone and if they tried to use their over fed brains on me, I'd show them I was born with a nut loosen"
Mrs. Lane laughs.
"What matters is if Swan Hayes's parents agrees to it, and if they do..."
Swan took Jr's key card from Mrs. Lane.
"He'd better get ready for me" She smiled.

•PEACHES HIGH, CAFETERIA•
"But where on earth could your key card be? You won't have gained access inside the school building, if not for me" Kendrick said.
"I dunno. I can't even remember where I kept it" Jr muttered.
His mind was on what his dad said to him last night.
He just wish he could stop being Rocco's son.
"But are you okay? You look worried" Yasmeen said.
"I'm fine"
Yasmeen went back to her phone and she squealed when she saw a sneakers online.
It's a multicolor sneakers.
"Babe, take a look at this. It's so beautiful" Yasmeen squealed.
"Don't you getting tired of obsessing over clothes and shoes?" Jr asked.
"Since you love it, I will get it for you" Kendrick said.
"Thank you so much babe!" She kisses him and stick out her tongue for Jr, he chuckles.
May-May was present, but it felt she was absent, cuz she wasn't saying anything.

• THE VIPERS CLAN, NIGHT •
Jr entered the suite and sees his father smoking with numerous girls all over him.
"I'm here now"
Rocco gave the girls a signal and they left.
Rocco stood up from his giant chair and threw a picture at Jr.
Jr picked it up and looked at his dad.
"I want him dead"
"You already know that I don't kill. I only carry out activities that involves money"
"It will be useless having a great skill in fighting and you can't kill with it. I didn't give you countless trainings for nothing. Make sure you take care of him before the week runs out, else your sister will bear the consequences"
Jr gave him a deadly venomous glare.
*
*
*
• FOLLOWING DAY •
Swan let out a long sigh as she arrives at peaches high.
*You can take my daughter's place until she wakes up, at least our tuition fees won't go to waste*
Swan remembers the words of Swan Hayes's parents and she smiled.
They agreed to it cuz of Mrs. Lane.
"I hope the first person I get to see will be my prince-charming" She walks through the gate.
A motorbike passed her, but she had no idea it was Jr cuz he was wearing a helmet.
Owen's car passed her too and he intentionally use his car to hit Jr.
Jr fell from his bike, if not that he was wearing a helmet, he'd have had an open head... though he sustained some injuries.
Jr took off his helmet and approached Owen.
"Prince-charming?" Swan muttered.
"What was that for?" Jr asked.
Students were already gathering.
"I hope they fight! I love Vawulence" Yasmeen giggles holding May-May.
"No one asked you to come to school with a bike" Owen said.
"Apologize for what you did" Jr said calmly.
"In your dreams!" He pushed Jr, and Jr intentionally fell to the ground.
A push from Owen won't possibly send him to the ground, but he chose to act weak.
"Hey, Froggy!!!!" Swan screams and everyone eyes went to her.
Jr furrowed his eyes-brown on seeing her.
"You are so dead for touching my prince-charming!!" She screams, she rushed to Owen and gave him a flying kick, and he fell forcefully on the ground.
"Whoa! Who is she? I love her. This is so much fun!" Yasmeen squealed. She loves it when people fight.
"Who are you?!" Owen shouts at her, Jr was just looking at her.
"I? I'm Swan Lake! Who gave you the right to touch him!"
Margo rushed to the scene.
"How dare you...."
She didn't even complete her sentence when Swan slapped her, Margo rolled and fell on Owen's body.
"Just because you have an expensive car, you think you can use it to touch my prince-charming?! Anyone with a baton?!"
Yasmeen rushed to get one.
"Here you go" She gave it to Swan.
Swan took it from her and walked to Owen's car.
"This is your show-off, right? Can't believe this stupid junky touch my prince-charming. Any last words for your car?" Swan asked.
Before Owen could calculate what she was about doing, Swan began breaking the glasses of his car.
While every students were gasping in shock, Yasmeen was busy laughing.
"Thank god, I didn't miss school today!" Yasmeen said, laughing.
"Stop whacking my car!" Owen cries, but Swan didn't stop destroying the glasses of Owen's car.
Jr..... SPEECHLESS
Owen entered his music studio inside the school, he is the only one who owns a music studio inside the school.
Instead of fuming at what Swan did, he found it very funny.
This is the very first time he has seen a girl fight like that.
To couple it with the fact that she is skinny, but knows how to fight and her craziness is mesmerizing.
Margo entered the music studio expecting him to be mad, but he was just smiling.
"What's making you smile?" Margo asked.
She has a little cut on her lower lip cuz of how Swan slapped her.
Owen stopped smiling when he saw Margo.
"What are you doing here?" He asked.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine" He tried to leave but Margo stopped him from leaving.
"Why aren't you taking action?"
"What action?"
"That girl didn't only whacked your car, she kicked your precious face, she even slapped me too"
"So?" He didn't even care about what Swan did to his face, talk more of hers.
"So? I think she wants to become a student here, you should expel her before she becomes a part of peaches high"
"Why should I?"
"Seriously Owen? Why?! Your family owns this school, so it means you can do whatever you want. Have her expelled"
"I don't take orders from you, neither will I have her expelled" He walks out on her.
Owen doesn't enter the class except when it's time for exams or texts.
He doesn't have friends too.
Margo was still in shock when Cat entered the music studio with Annie.
You might think Annie is their friend, but Cat and Margo considers her as their stray dog, but yet she kept clinging on them like bee looking for honey.
"What did Owen say? Is he having her expelled" Cat asked.
"No he is not!"
"Why? I don't want that girl in this school! It seems like Jr knows her and I won't allow any love story to happen between them. I hate her!"
"I also hate her too! But somehow her face looks familiar. I have met her somewhere before, but I have forgotten" Margo said.
"What's your plan now?" Annie finally spoke up.
"If Owen can't take action, then I am going to take action"
"That's dangerous Margo. She is a crazy girl, I don't think you can handle someone like her" Annie said.
Margo walks closer to her and slaps her hard.
"You are only meant to speak when we ask you to. You should know your place in this friendship circle of ours, got that?!"
Annie nodded, sullenly.
"Swan might have put on a crazy stunt, but she is no match for me. I'm going to make sure I kick out of this school myself" Margo said and drops her handbag and left
All their school accessories are always kept in school, so they don't take any books home, except the days for home-works.
Cat also dropped her handbag on the floor and smirked at Annie.
"Bring these bags to class, don't keep us waiting" She walks out too.
Annie began picking up their handbags from the floor.
Though her family is kind of rich, she is among those with lower ranks in peaches high school.
In peaches high, they give you respect according to the rank you have in school.
But Jr doesn't have a ranking but his popularity is high, cuz of how gorgeous he looks.

"Why aren't you giving me my key card?" Swan asked.
"What was the drama all about this morning?" The principal asked.
"What drama? Oh I remember, I was just teaching that Froggy a lesson. He purposely hit his junky car on my prince-charming"
"Do you know who Owen is? His family owns this school!"
"So? Don't tell me you want to have me expelled just because I taught him the lessons his parents forgot to give to him?"
"You told me you're just here to replace Swan Hayes who is in a coma in Korea, right?"
"Yes. Why?"
"It only means you're poor and you should respect the kids here"
Swan laughs.
"Did I say something funny?" The principal asked, wondering why she was laughing.
"I think you should become a comedian rather than a principal. With your face like bulldog, you will go viral"
"Bull....what?"
"Listen mr. Principal, it's not like I don't have respect, but respect are given to those who respect themselves. If the kids here respect themselves, then I won't have to show them the crazy side of Swan Lake. So can I have my key card now? There's someone I need to see"
The principal got a call from Owen and he quickly picked up.
"I am fine, don't even have the slightest idea of expelling her" Owen ends the call.
"What did you do to him?" The principal asked.
"To whom?" Swan asked.
The principal ignored her questions and handled the key card that has Swan Hayes and her picture on it.
"It would've been better if my name was on it. Anyways thank you!" She flings the key card at the principal smiling.
She went to the door but came back.
"You're free to tell the entire students that I am not Swan Hayes. Anyways they'd found out soon, cuz my picture is not in the key card. Bye Mr. Principal" Swan giggles and rushes out to look for Jr.

Jr was doing all he could to avoid Swan, let's just say he is hiding from her.
"I dunno how she became a student here, but I need to hide from her," Jr said.
He could even hear his heart beating softly at the thought of Swan, and this is the very first it is happening.
"But what if she is in the same class as me?" Jr muttered.
"Yes I am" Swan said from behind him, and Jr got startled.
He didn't see her coming.
"How...how did you get here?" He asked.
"Through the school map. Are you hiding from me?"
"Why would I hide from you? You're not that special" Jr avoids her eyes when he said that.
"Then why are you here instead of the main building of the school"
"I.... I... I came to get flowers!" He answered sharply.
"Awww, is it for me?" Swan asked, smiling.
"Don't create ideas in your head"
Swan laughs; "I was just joking"
She walked closer to the flowers and began sniffling.
"It smells so nice" She smiles.
Jr admires her pretty smile, but when Swan looks at him, he quickly backs her.
"Why did you allow Froggy to push you like that? From my observation from our first meeting, you don't look weak to me. You were fighting like an action movie star, so why did you act weak earlier?"
Jr turned to look at her.
"It's none of your business. Why did you come to this school anyways?"
"I won't lie. It's because of you" Swan answered, Jr secretly smiled.
Somehow he felt happy seeing her face again.
He clears his throat trying to pretend; "Isn't that ridiculous coming to school cuz of a guy?"
"Don't blame me, blame this face of yours" Swan said.
Jr's heart flutters on hearing that coming from Swan.
Although lots of girls have said he is so handsome, it didn't make his heart flutter like how it's doing for Swan.
The way she said he is handsome hits different.
"But don't get the wrong idea, I am not Swan Hayes. I'm taking her place until she wakes up from a coma. What do you think, I am prettier than her right?" Swan asked, showing Jr the picture on the key card with a smiling face.
Jr looked at the picture on the key card and then to Swan. He smiled because he knew Swan was more beautiful.
"I am more pretty right?"
"I dunno," He said.
Swan scoffs and walks closer to him, although she has height, but judging from how tall Jr was, she was short when she stands close to him.
"What do you want?" Jr asked in a low voice, when she stood close to him.
He didn't even understand why his heart was fluttering and beating at the same time.
"Now that I am here in peaches high, maybe you can reconsider giving me your number"
"I don't give strangers my number"
"C'mon Prince-charming, we are not strangers anymore. I want to have your number"
"Don't you find it embarrassing asking for a guy's number"
"Nothing is embarrassing when it comes to you"
Jr blushed, but he quickly snapped out of it.
"I won't give it to you"
"Why?" Swan pouted and Jr could swear that he was tempted to kiss her lips.
He doesn't know her that well, so what the heck is she doing to him?
"Look, it's a rainbow!"
"Where? Where? I love rainbows!" She squealed and quickly turned.
"Prince-charming, I can't...." Swan stopped talking when she turns and didn't find Jr.
"He tricked me? Well I have all the time in the world to get his number" Swan smiled.
She walked closer to the flowers again and began smiling cutely, inhaling its fragrance.
Swan can be cute when she wants to be, and crazy when she feels like too.
Jr who has been hiding behind the wall peeps at her from where he was standing.
He smiled watching her smile as well.
"I love her smile," He muttered, staring endlessly at her.
* YOU ARE FORBIDDEN TO LOVE, SO DON'T THINK ABOUT GIVING YOUR HEART TO ANY GIRL, CUZ HER BLOOD WILL BE ON YOUR HEAD *
Rocco's voice sounded in Jr's ear and the smile instantly disappeared from his lips.
Without giving one last glance at Swan, he walked away.

Yasmeen kept laughing as she watched the video of how Swan destroyed Owen's car.
It was uploaded on the school's blog.
This will be the hundredth time she is watching it, and she never stops laughing.
"Won't you stop watching that video?" Kendrick asked.
"No I won't. It's so funny!"
"You love when people fight, but you don't even have the strength to fight"
Yasmeen laughs.
"At least, even if I don't know how to fight, shouldn't I love it when people fight?" She asked, blinking her eyes like a doll.
She looks like a doll.
"My beautiful cutie" He cupped her face.
"I'm thinking of making Swan Lake my friend, she's a whole vibe. What do you think?"
"Do whatever you want? Your my cutie after all" He pecks her.
"Should we do a video together?" Yasmeen asked with her cute smile.
She is not just a fashion freak, but also a TikTok influencer.

"I wonder where he went. School hasn't been dismissed yet" Swan said.
She hasn't started classes yet, cuz peaches high gives a day to its new students to look around the huge school before they begin classes.
Swan was about to go back to the garden when she saw Jr earlier, but she was blocked by some students.
Cat and Margo were in the front as the leaders of the group.
Annie was holding their handbags.
"Yes, what do you want? If you're here to give me a grand welcoming, I don't need it"
Margo and Cat laugh.
"Who do you think you are that we would give a grand welcoming to?" Cat asked.
"We heard that you're replacing Swan Hayes. You're just a poor kid!" Margo said.
Swan scoffs and eyes went to their key cards.
Margo and Cat were hanging their key cards on their necks.
"Hey, Mango and Catfish, better stay out of my way if you don't want your red hair to turn to white and your black hair to yellow"
"Who do you think you are to call us Mango and Catfish!" Margo and Cat asked using their hands to push Swan.
Swan laughs lightly.
"I dare you to push me again, and those hands of yours will be gone!"
"And what will a poor kid like you do? Do you possibly think you'd be able to beat us!" Margo said, and the group of girls smirks at her.
"How dare you call Jr your Prince-charming!" Cat pushed Swan again.
"You even use your dirty sneakers to touch my Owen!" Margo pushed her too, making Swan fall to the ground.

Jr sits in an empty class, he has a sullen look on his face, cuz he was deep in thought.
* YOU ARE FORBIDDEN TO LOVE, SO DON'T THINK ABOUT GIVING YOUR HEART TO ANY GIRL, CUZ HER BLOOD WILL BE ON YOUR HEAD *
These words echoed in his ears again, and Jr sighed.
"She is nothing to you Jr. Swan is just a crazy girl you just met, "he muttered.
A student rushed in.
"Jr!!"
"Need anything?"
"It's Swan Lake! Margo and Cat are ganging up on...."
Jr didn't even wait to hear his complete sentence when he rushed out of the class like a flash man.
Jr didn't stop running until he saw a group of students gathering.
Yasmeen was in the front taking videos and laughing.
"So much fun for just today" She laughs.
Jr rushed to the center, thinking Swan was being bullied, but he met the opposite of what he thought.
Swan tied both Margo and Cat's hair to a pole, and they were screaming like goats.
Even the group of girls that joined Margo and Cat to intimidate Swan were on one side of the school crying.
"Swan!!! Untie us right now!!!!" Margo and Cat cries.
"Call that name with respect!" Swan said and flogged their buttocks with a cane.
Margo and Cat cried like babies.
"You both will remain here until school is dismissed. Poor kid?!" Swan said and flogged their buttocks again.
They couldn't move cuz of how Swan joined their hair together and tied it on a pole.
Some students who hated Cat and Margo were busy laughing, but Yasmeen's laughter was the highest.
"The next time you hear Swan Lake, RUN!" Swan said.
She loosen the band she used to pack her long curly hair.
Her long curly hair fell down to her shoulders and Jr's mouth opened as her hair danced on her shoulders.
Swan didn't know Jr was present, so she left to look for him.
"Swan!!! Untie our hair!!!" Margo and Cat cries as their hair that was being tied on a pole stings them.
Kendrick came to the scene and saw Jr still staring at Swan who was still walking away.
Jr was standing like a molded figure, cuz he is totally WHIPPED by Swan.
"It seems like you both know each other? Who is she?" He asked.
"MY BABY GIRL" Jr smiled, with his eyes still on Swan.
