"WOW! HE'S SO handsome."

"I'm in love..."

"He's freaking hot... damn..."

"Tss, that's a gay I'm sure."

"Oh my goodness. Is he a God?"

"My underwear falls... he can fvck me anytime."

There are so many different kinds of comments from my classmates but I can't care to those anymore and it didn't even registered in me because I'm busy being shock.

Just close to impossible.

It's not really impossible for our paths to meet. And this is... what he is talking about. Did he look for me and transfer to this school?

Damn him.

I shut my eyes so tight and put my forehead on my desk. What the fvck? He will ruin everything. Think Ennaira. Knowing this guy, he will approach me as soon as he sees me.

I slowly inhale and exhale, calming my mind within and clearing it. What to do?

I open my eyes and lift my head to sit properly. I don't know him. As soon as I look straight ahead our eyes met and I saw it widens a little in shock but his lips immediately curve in its usual playful way and like a habit I glare at him in response.

Tss.

"Ouch..." I whispered to myself and hold the side of my head. I close my eyes so tight and tried to stand up but I stumbled back on my chair.

I felt their attention to me so I continue acting.

"What's wrong Miss Alistair?" Mr Velasco ask me.

"I'm sorry Sir." I look at him but close my eyes again. "M-my head hurts... my sight is spinning."

"Oh my, she's pregnant?" One of my classmate stupidly exclaimed followed by a shock echo reactions of my other idiot stupid classmates.

Dumbasses.

"How? She don't even have a boyfriend." Catharine's bored but sassy voice.

"Maybe she have a fvck buddy?" One of the boys said and his friends laugh.

I stilled a little and steal a look to the transfer student. He's smirking at my direction.

"Oh shut up. This mongrel can't afford to do it even she's a mongrel... and there's no guy who will be willing to put up with her." Catharine defended.

Thank goodness she's so stupid and mean, and she hates me.

"Language. Did you forget that your teacher is in front of you? You don't have respect at all." Mr Velasco calmly said but we all know he's angry at this point so before he start.

I stand up but act like it's hard. I stumbled again and hold my desk so I can stand up straight enough. "C-can I excuse for a while? I think I have to go to the infirmary, Sir."

"Okay, anyone please assist Miss Alistair to the infirmary." Mr Velasco.

But as expected.

No one says a word or did anything. They really all know how to shup up at times.

"No one?" Mr Velasco ask and look around us.

"I can manage alone--"

"Me!" The transfer student put his right hand up while smirking playfully at our teacher. "I would like to bring Miss Alistair to the infirmary." He said and boldly emphasize my name.

Mr Velasco look at him for a moment. "Are you sure Mr Knightley? But you don't know where it is."

"Miss Alistair can tell me where. I just have to assist her, right? She can still open her eyes."

"Then, it's settled. And by this case, Miss Alistair is it fine if I'll apoint you to tour Mr Knightley around the school once you're fine? A friend would be appreciated. Would you mind?" Mr Velasco ask me kindly.

I will mind. "It's fine." I will be glad to tour him at the part of school we called gate because he should go.

"I would really appreciate a friend Miss Alistair." The transfer agreed and give me a knowing look, almost sensual.

He really should go.

Right now.

Seriously.

"A friend. Pfft-- Hahaha!" Catharine burst into laughter that get everyone's attention. "That girl won't ever keep a friend." She look at me and our eyes locked on each other. "She's fine alone. She don't need anyone."

My eyes unvoluntarily blink two times and I look away from her only to met the digging eyes of the transfer student. He's now so serious while looking at me like he's trying to read my mind. I look away from him too and just stared at the board.

"I'll take her there, Sir." The transfer student said so I just take that opportunity to go out from that suddenly suffocating class.

Once I'm out of the class I started to walk fast on the hallway. My breathing is going faster and faster. I hold my skirt so tight and close my eyes. Calm down Ennaira. That's nothing. Really nothing.

"Hey!" His voice from my back.

I turn around and gasp a little when I saw how close we are. I immediately took two steps away from him. My heart is beating fast because of startle but I'm sure it's only inside me. I'm really good at hiding my feelings, that's a sure thing but my action is a little surprising for him.

He look at the space between us and twisted his lips then took a step towards me that made my feet step back in its own. On that move we both stop and look at each other with confusion. Now I know it totally surprise him... because I'm surprise to my actions too.

Am I too nervous of his presence here that my body is automatically staying away from him? Yeah... that's it.

"What's with the space?" He ask after the long silence.

Why? Can't we have space?

I exhale slowly. Removing the nonsense thoughts out of my mind and ignoring his question. "Come with me. This isn't the place to talk." I said and walk, leaving him behind to follow me.

"Hmn? Aren't we allowed to talk at the hallway here?" His tone and voice has genuine curiosity in it but I know him well. He's mocking me and I can play along well with him.

"Yes." I answered seriously.

"As if." He scoff.

"Don't ask if you just won't believe me."

"Psh." He jog until he's beside me then he crouched sideways to me while walking with my pace. He didn't say anything and just stay still in his position while walking so I frown and look at him.

He's just looking at me with a smirk like he's amused by something. It pisses me off. I stop walking and face him, I don't care if we are in the middle of the hallway and anyone can passed by here and saw us. I'm suddenly so annoyed at his presense and thinking about it, I really hate his presense.

"Stop staring at me." I said seriously while glaring at him.

He pursed his lips to stop smirking and look away from me but it's just seconds because he's smirking and looking at me again, still wearing his amused expression. "Why are you grumpy again? I'm not doing anything."

"You. What are you doing here?"

He sighed hopelessly like my question is nonsense. "You. What are you doing here?"

"I'm studying here."

"I'm studying here too."

My glare at him intensified. "Don't go smartass now and transfer to another school."

"Why?" He raise his right eyebrow.

Why? I huffed and look sideways before looking back at him with more intense glare. "Just go."

"I'm liking it here. Why?"

"Just--" I stop talking because I don't know how to answer him even I have a lot of reason why he should transfer in another school again.

"Look. If it's our deal about knowing names, can we just forget it? That's nonsense anyway. I really like it here now."

"How can you like this school when you just came here a few minutes ago?"

He sighed again. "I have reason for transferring in this school."

"Like what? Admit it, you transfer here because you know I'm here?"

"What are you talking about?" He laugh.

"I know you. You got curious about me a few weeks ago and started asking questions about me then you're here now. Tell me, is it a coincidence?" I fired directly and he look taken aback

"What are you talking about?" He ask slowly. He look confused for a sudden but he could be just acting.

Who is he trying to decieve? Me? Me of all people?

I turn and step to go and end this useless conversation because it's nonsense if he won't admit it. I will just waste my time to him, but he hold my wrist and pulled me to step back on my spot. I look at him with a glare at get my wrist from him.

"What?" I snap.

"What "what"? Look. I didn't plan this, okay? I didn't know we will be classmates in this school too. I just really have to be here for some reason."

"Then why are you here?"

"I can't tell you about it, I'm sorry."

"I don't believe on that--"

"But it's true."

"I don't really care whatever your reason is now but transfer to another school if you really didn't mean to cross our line." I challenge and he stop.

"What?" He confusedly ask.

"You don't want to?" I fired accusingly.

He just look at me for a long while before he open his mouth but he didn't say a word and just look up in the ceiling. His jaw moved and I can feel the frustration in his breathing. I stayed watching his expression until he look at me again with a frustrated sigh.

"Why do you want me out of here so bad?" His deep voice sounds lower than normal because of his seriousness.

The bell rang and I heard talking of some students not so far away. After a while this hallway will be full of students. We can't be seen together. I get his hand and pulled him with me to get out of the building.

"Where are we going?" He ask.

I ignore him and continue walking to the back of the building where I'm sure there's no one. I let go of his hand and turn to face him, already glaring I said, "We don't know each other."

He huff and smirk. "We really don't know each other. But I'm planning to know you."

See? The truth is coming from his own mouth. "So you really transfer here to know me?"

"Aish." He roll his eyes and grimaced at me. "Oh please. Don't be full of yourself. The world isn't around you."

This piece of-- I glare at him more. If look could just kill him. How I wish. "What did you just say?"

"I didn't came here for you I told you that earlier. I have other reason, it just coincidentally happened that you're we are classmates too and that added the fun."

"What?!"

"Stop asking what. I have other reason and you being here just tagged along. Period." He said and put his right hand up. "I swear."

It could be possible but... "Whatever, go back or transfer to another school. I don't want you here."

He roll his eyes again and I swear too, it's adding to my irritation to him. "Stop being bossy you're not my boss. And for your freakin' fcvking damn information babe, I intend to stay here."

If that's the case then, "Stop seeing me."

"What do you mean?"

Now he's the one not getting it. "I said let's stop what's in between us and this will be the case from now on, I never know you, you never know me. I first saw you 15 minutes ago as the new student of Corina and you helped me but that's all. You're forbidden to talk to me. You will never talk to me. We will be completely stranger."

He didn't say anything so I continue.

"What's in between us is over now and whatever you see and hear about me you don't care about it. Stay out of my life. It's just right to end it here because it's part of our deal, once we know each other, it's over. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

He still didn't say anything and he just look at me with serious unreadable expression.

I offer my hand out to him for a shake. "I'm Ennaira Allistair. Nice meeting you Lyonnaire Knightley, let's not be friends."

He look at my hands and then lift his sight to me again. "Are you serious?" He ask in a dark deep voice.

I felt something but I didn't pay attention to it. I just let my heart beat so fast because it's alright and normal to be nervous. There's a lot to be afraid of in this situation.

My heart is booming so loud and I felt my hands slightly trembling and his gaze is not helping. The way he look at me right now. Sharp expressive dark eyes and menacing smirk with a long silence. It envelope us and his gaze is slowly making me very uncomfortable. The sudden nervous beat in my heart boomed more fast and loud, and I felt the urged to run but that's totally not me so I stayed still looking in his eyes but... it's just too intense.

I open my mouth slightly and slowly let out a breath. What the fvck...

"What?" I can't stop asking because I'm too uncomfortable now.

"You really don't know me." He slowly stated in low deep drowned voice.

"What?"

He step closer to me, taking me by surprise. I step back but he hold my arm and pull me to him with force so I crashed on his chest. The nervous boom on my heart is choking me. I push him but his other hand snaked on my waist to my back to pull me more closer to his body.

"Hey! What do you think you're doing?" My breathing get faster because of the move.

"I'm not the kind of person to boss around. And what I want, I get." He said and lean his mouth on my ear to whisper. "Don't challenge me, Allistair. I'm very competitive."

What?
