Episode 4
MARE
The morning alarm made me groan out but it stopped ringing almost immediately.
I didn't switch it off, I open my eye slightly and Nina was standing there staring at me with so much concern.
"Good morning"I muttered and try to sit but a very sharp pain struck my head and I groaned.
"Sorry"She ran to get me water and pass it to me .
"Thanks"I muttered after drinking to my fill.
"I warned you about getting yourself drunk last night"She said.
"Oh my God!!!"I gasped.
"What?"
"Did I happen to do something crazy last night?"I asks.
"Nothing actually but something is strange"She said.
"What do you mean"I push the duvet off my body and went to get my morning dose from the drawer, swallowing it with the water Nina gave me.
"I don't know what happened before I walk in but Bryan was busy looking after you throughout the night"She said.
"Who is Bryan?"
"You still don't know him? You were totally drunk last night and you went away with some random guy making me lose sight of you but surprisingly I found you in his room"She said.
"What?"I yelled.
"Why are you screaming?"
"You mean I was taken advantage of last night"
"Don't you remember anything"She asks and I sigh deeply and close my eye for a while.
"Omg"I popped my eye out immediately I recollect what actually happened last night.
"Where is he?"I asks.
"If you don't want to be popular overnight then stay away from him"she muttered in a serious tone.
"What do you mean?"
"We have a class in twenty minutes, you should get dressed so we can have breakfast before class"She change the topic.
What wrong with her? I glare at her before walking to the bathroom to freshen up.

At the restaurant, Nina and I walk into the place and I pointed at an empty seat beside the window.
"Let go get our food first"She said as I grab a food tray and join the queue with her.
"Why is there so much student here?"I whispered to her looking around.
"Because it the only cafeteria in the school"She said and I move to the front a bit till it finally got to our turn.
"So what class are we having this morning"I asks Nina.
"Mathematics"
"That go_"
I'm cut off when my shoulder hits against something. Someone and my food spilled on the floor making some silly noise grabbing everyone attention
"Watch it, bitch." The asshole says.
What?! Did this jerk just call me a b***h?.
I raise my head up and there he is. The devil from last night. What is his name again?.
"You"he said in surprise but I just pretended I didn't know him.
"Sorry do I know you?"I act all cool and he took a glance of Nina.
"Nina girl"a guy said in surprise and suddenly wrap his hand round my shoulder bringing me close to him but I remove them and took a step back.
"Don't you remember me too?"he said, but I didn't say a word. Of course I remember them all John, the one who almost disvirgin me last night.
Leo stands on his right, he has dark hair and beautiful blue eyes, while Liam stands on his left. He looks like he just got out of bed and his blonde hair sits in a mess on his head, yet he still looks flawless.
"Just let the girl be"Liam muttered but the jerk wrap his hand round my neck and tighten his grip this time.
"Who can blame me?, it's not every day you see a beautiful girl"he shrugged but my eye land on Bryan clenched fist.
Why is he angry again?.
"I don't know any of you let go off me"I managed to say because they are just creating an unnecessary scene.
"Hey, don't be so grumpy. You were being so well behaved last night. Come with us?" he pull me with him.
"I need to_"
"Clean it up"he said to Nina and enterwined our hands and pull me away from the place.
I don't know why I kept cussing as I watch the guys eat and I couldn't. Nina was busy enjoying their company but I wasn't.
I notice something about this Bryan of a guy, he hardly talk nor act childish like his friends.
I study his lips as he eat, I still can't believe I kissed them last night.
Wait! Why is he behaving like he doesn't care? He saved me last night but we share a very intense kiss last night and this morning he is acting all cold?. he must be a player as his face tells.
'If he was player then he would have taken advantage of you"My subconscious yelled at me.
"Why aren't you eating?"John asks and that drag everyone attention to me.
"Nothing, I don't have an appetite"I lied.
"This is morning, you shouldn't skip breakfast you know. We are having a busy day today and might not have a chance for lunch"
"I'm okay"I insisted.
"She is fine, she hardly eat"Nina defended me and I gave her a smile.
"Trying to keep your model body right?"Liam teased and I chuckled.
"Nothing of such"I fake a laugh then scoff.
"Mare"I hate myself for the butterflies I feel in my stomach due to the way Bryan said my name. I'm so pathetic.
I'm surprised he even remembered.
"Yes"I wonder why he is calling me. The whole attention was directed to him.
"You actually don't have a model stature"he said and everyone laugh but I find it not too funny.
"Good morning guys"a voice said and I turned to recognize the blonde girl as the girl from last night.
"Oh"She muttered when she saw me.
"What is she doing here?"She look disappointed as she said so.
"We bumped into her today and decided to have breakfast together, you can join too"Liam said.
"Stand up"She said to me and I wanted to carry my food tray before Leo grab my hand and pull me back.
"Find yourself a seat"he said.
"No it fine, I'm not even eating let her have the space"I remove leo hand from mine and walk away and Nina join me immediately.
"Gosh, I wish I was in your shoe"She said.
"What so fun about it?"
"They all stood up for you"She said.
"Like I care"I dispose the food and exit the restaurant Immediately.
We were walking through the hallway for our first class when Nina screamed and I wonder what it is until the other students in the hallway started talking about it while walking.
"What going on?"
"Aren't you on the class group chat?"She asks.
"Do we have one?"I asks and she sigh.
"Anyway the hottest gist in town right now is Bryan and Cynthia are in a relationship now"She giggled.
"Huh?"I snatch the phone from her to confirm and truly it was real. he has a girlfriend?. I was just overthinking before.
"Is she in our department"I asks sadly.
"You don't know Cynthia?She is the prettiest, popular and bitchiest girl in school, I think they are perfect pairing"She said.
"Why?"
"He is rich and she is rich, so they fit"She shrugged and all I could do was nod my head.
"Everyone is apparently talking about it"She said and wrap her hand round my arm.
"Oh"I manage to say.
"Don't over think, he will come to you if he is yours"She said.
"What do you mean?"
"You don't need to lie to me, I know you like him"She said.
"No you are getting it wrong, I'm just concerned about him"
"Why?"
"He looks_"the grin on Nina face made me stop.
"Just forget about it"I said and she gave me a sarcastic smile.
The bells rings, saving me from the interrogation with Nina.
Everyone started running to the class and we weren't excluded.
"Good morning class, let me introduce myself. I'm Mr. Harrison and I will be taking you Maths and as well as Physics"he introduced and I pay more attention to him than what the class are discussing.
"Now let get to it, open your textbook 3.4"he ordered and we all pay attention to him. He is quite good at his job and I understand everything perfectly all thanks to the fact I snatch the front seat quite early.
"I'm sorry but since it your first day, once I'm done with the class everyone is ordered to go the sport arena. We need to do some sanitation there so it would be accessible henceforth"he said and the class started murmuring but I see it as no big deal.
"Understood?"
"Yes sir"they chorused while some of them squeeze their face like they are been pooped on. I chuckled at my own thought before I resumed back to class.
I was really excited about the whole class stuff, After what happened at the restaurant I was still able to maintain a low profile.
"I've added you to the group chat"Nina whispered to me.
"What?"
"See someone new had been added" a girl whispered to her friend.
"She is beautiful, Omg!!!" my phone beeped and I had to check what was on.
"One thousands fifty five messages from the group chat?!!"
"Who is she?"
"She looks hot"I was scrolling through the messages and some were sending my high school pictures.
"Isn't she the one with Bryan this morning?"
"I guess Cynthia now have a rival"
"I can't wait to see what happens"
Where the hell did they get it from?.
"I guess you aren't interested in the class why don't we go to sport arena then"Mr. Harrison sounded pissed off.
"You are so popular girlfriend"Nina whispered to me and I frown.
I know it will be hard to get unpopular as f**k especially when I choose to be Nina girlfriend.
