Pure Dirty Intentions

Chapter 2

"You look like an old lady already, girlfriend." I just rolled my eyes to him.

He offered me a drink but I refused and he just chuckled. Tss, he knew already that I don't drink but he kept insisting.

Here I am at my friend's bar. It's 9 pm already in the evening. And this guy was bothering me nonstop after I got home. It's his bar anyways, a high class bar.

Alexander Evans, my best friend.

He's handsome. I knew that for a fact. All the girls want him to be their man. But it's a no for me, he's just a friend of mine. And beside he friend zone me back to our high school days.

How dare he friend zone me! I mean it's not that he directed it, it's more indirect but still says it to my face, I guess.

And past is past, I moved on even though nothing happened between us. Well, it's kinda hurts when thinking it.

"Tss." I hissed and drank a glass of water. "You make me dizzy. Can you stop shaking that bottle?" I pointed out. He laughed.

"Girlfriend, you know this is the work of a bartender, right? Did you shake your head or something?" He said and continued shaking it and throwing it in the air. After that, he looked at me and winked. And I heard girls giggled

Oh, I forgot this is a bar. And he's a bartender in this bar. A very famous bartender in this bar. Well, his bar is always full because of girls and boys because the drinks that he sells and makes are delicious. I can tell but never tasted it and will not taste it.

I remembered there was a time that he was sad because I refused to taste his made drinks and that made him very sad. But he can't stay sad or mad at me. At the end of the day he's the one who will say sorry.

Because of that I fell in love with him.

"Is there anything bothering you? You look bothered." That made me look at him and saw him stop shaking the bottle and put it down. "You know girlfriend, since I picked you up you're quiet. Is there anything wrong in school?" he asked worriedly.

I shake my head. "None." and looked away.

Heard him smirked. Well, we are far from the music and dancing floor. So there's minimal noise here. Well his bar divided in two floors.

The first floor is where the dance floor is and a bar station. Then the second floor is where the VIPs are, 8 rooms to be exact.

He's a hardworking man not born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

"Oh come on, Bettina Catalina Aragon Zuarez." geez, he said my full name. "I know you enough, now tell me what's the problem?"

I sighed. "There is this kid who really, really loves getting into trouble." with my sarcastic tone.

How can I erase the scenario that I saw earlier?

My gosh, they're only 17 years old! I mean doing that thing is not supposedly a thing to do! When I was 17 I'm just studying and practicing my confession to my crush!

I let the girl slide, that was her first offense and I gave her warning. But if that happens again I'll give her the equal punishment for her wrongful action.

But Jaydee Alec Devain? No way, I won't let it pass! I mean this is not his first offense but a major offense! Because of his actions earlier, I have no choice but to talk to his guardian. ASAP.

I called his office and scheduled a meeting with him and luckily I'm the principal of the school where his brother goes, so the secretary let me squeeze in to his boss's busy schedule.

I felt relieved but half of it bothered me. And I don't even know why, why I felt bothered or something.

Flashback....

"Explain now." I said to them while standing in front of them.

Here we are at my office and discussing what the hell I saw earlier. They are obviously doing that.that. that thing! In the janitor closet! They have no respect for me, a single lady!

I mean to the school, yes to the school.

Arghh what am I thinking? I'm supposed to be mad, not jealous!

"Can you sit down first, Ms. Principal? Damn you're overreacting." the last is he whispered

This kid is getting on my nerves! He's really getting on my nerves!

"I heard that, Mr. Devain!" as loudly as I can. I look at the girl who's now looking at the floor. Now she's embarrassed? "Ms. George." I called her attention

She slowly looked at me. "Ma'am" with her voice cracked.

"Care to tell me what I just saw earlier?"

"Obviously we're making out." I heard Devain say that.

You little~ arghh!

I raised an eyebrow and looked at him. Did he just smirked at me?! I mean did he just smirked at the principal of this school? Did this kid just disrespected me?! Wow just wow. If only I had scissors with me, I will cut those devil horns!

"Ma'am?" Ms. George said worriedly.

I look at them before saying anything, this is a big offense to them. I just can't let this slide, what if they will tell other students? that I let this slide, just like that? What if I will see this everyday?! I mean destiny will give me heads up that I'm too single! too single for this!

I'm not demanding that I need a partner as soon as possible, I mean it can wait right? Maybe, if I reach 26 I'll be in a relationship or something like that.

My gosh, what am I thinking right now? What the hell Bettina?!

I shake my head to erase the thoughts.

"Ms. George, you know this is a serious offense right?" I said

She nodded and now, she has teary eyes.

"I need to speak to your parents."

It's like it's a bomb that explodes to Ms. George's face! She's now crying like a kid. She stood up and hurriedly went to me, she kneeled down and hugged my waist. It widened my eyes"Stand up, Ms George! Gosh, stand up, kid!" I said and forced her to stand up.

She shakes her head. "Please don't call my mommy, ma'am. Please, I'm begging you! I'll do anything but please don't call her! Please ma'am!" She begged.

I immediately stood her up. And she did!

She sobbed like a kid. I looked at Mr. Devain but I just saw him looking at Ms. George, worriedly? He's face softened that I've never seen before. His dark aura is not in his face anymore like he's being tamed right now.

He likes her.

I shook my head and looked again at the girl. I sighed "Look, Ms George. I won't talk to your mommy anymore." and she looks at me "But promise me, this will be the last thing. I'll give you another punishment." she mouthed thank you.

"And promise this." I looked at Mr. Devain first and he looked away.

Tss. If I know you want to thank me.

I looked again at the girl. "No one will know this. Understood?" I said

There was no student earlier. I don't want to have rumours about this and talk about this again. She nodded and I saw Mr. Devain nodded too.

Very good then. It's a win-win deal.

"Now, Ms. George, you can go now. Your punishment will start tomorrow." I said. She nodded and she hurriedly got her things and rushed to the door.

As soon as the door closed. Mr Devain suddenly stands and puts his bag on his shoulder and he turns around but, "Where do you think you're going? You're not dismissed yet, Mr. Devain. You're not Ms. George that I dismissed, now sit down."

He sighed heavily and frowned like a kid. He threw his bag into the chair and sat down. I just shook my head and sat down in my chair.

"Let's see, what do you want? Do you want expulsion or community service? Choose." I said.

"What?"

I smirked. "You tested my patience kid. Now, face the consequences. Expulsion or community service good for one month?" He looks at me with nervousness written to his face. " Don't tell me, you didn't see this coming? Come on kid anything and everything that you do will have consequences. Now, choose."

"Are you out of your mind? Do you know who I am?"

I gave him a deadly look that made him gulp. "Say my name, first and my position, kid."

"W-what?"

"Say it."

"Ms. Bettina Catalina Aragon Zuarez." and he looked away.

"Now, my position."

"The Head Mistress of Blues High."

Correct!

I smiled at him. "Now, tell me who you are and what you are in this school."

What? I'm just helping him to remember who he is and me. There's nothing wrong about that. And besides I'm being considerate to his awful action that he committed.

I'm the principal and he is the student. I'm not using my powers against this kid, I do the opposite thing! I'm using my powers to help this kid!

"Jaydee. Jaydee Alec Devain. Student in Blues High." he said.

I smile bitterly after he recites. Say what I wanted to hear.

"Good boy, Jaydee. Anyways I changed my mind you don't need to choose. I'm the one who will choose to just prepare myself tomorrow. You may now go." I said

He hesitated to nod but he nodded. He slowly grabbed his bag and after that he hurriedly went.

"Tss." I hissed.

After a while I decided to call Mr. Devain guardian company. Because his phone is busy.

I contacted it and it took a while for someone to answer the phone call. Geez, it's about time.

["Good afternoon, how may I help you today?"] a lady answered.

"Hi! I'm Miss. Zuarez, the principal of Blues High. Can I set a meeting with Mr. Jaydee Alec Devain brother? I would like it tomorrow." I happily said

["Come again, ma'am?"]

Maybe she was surprised.

"Ahh, I'm Ms Zuare-----" I stopped when I heard a voice.

["Ms. Catrina, where are the damn papers that I told you to get?! Where the f*ck are they?!"] I heard an angry voice in the phone call.

["Ahh sir, I was about to get it but---"] I guess the lady is stammering or something.

Darn, I'm listening to them without any consent!

["You forgot the papers, huh? And I forgot to tell you, you're fired!"]

Just because of some papers, he fired her?! I waited for the lady to say something but I heard nothing. I think this is a bad time to call.

"Ahmm, miss. I better hu----"

["Who is this?"] He said with his lower voice now.

Why are my hands shaking? And why am I feeling bothered or something?

I compose myself and clear my throat before answering it.

"Hi! I'm Miss. Zuarez, the principal of Blues High. I just want to set up a meeting tomorrow with Mr. Devain guardian. It's concerned about Mr. Devain behavior lately. To whom am I speaking?" I said.

A while of silence.

["Akiro Elle Devain."]
