Chapter one hundred twenty-two: "Pursuer"

All the language teachers started giving me small tests to test my language accuracy and I always get it correct every time
I feel like a test subject

Of course, I'm not gonna rely on my language alone to make my family proud, I still have to focus on my studies because I don't think college interviews would be that impressive if they only saw I only excel in language

Lunchtime came around and my friends came in the faculty to fetch me "So how was it? The genius of the school" Mira winked at me while nudging me using her elbow

"Tiring, I feel like a celebrity though. I dunno how Aiden would feel like since he is one"

Aiden sat beside me "Well you see my pretty friend, there is a term called a back door. It works every time" he played it off like getting bombarded with paparazzi's is like a morning walk in the park

I squeezed his nose "Don't boast about it Elliot, I feel weird if you even teach me how to use the back door trick to avoid the curious students"
Because I know for sure after the teachers make a huge commotion about me, I would have to avoid those gossipy students

"We didn't do anything for the whole day since all the teachers came to the faculty" Max told me, I can see that it looks like he woke up from a nap
Hmph, I want a nap too this is unfair

All of the students get a lot of free time while I'm stuck in the teacher's faculty

I was still grumpy about it during our wok to the cafeteria, Aiden offered to volunteer to get my lunch because he also woke up from a long nap. I sat at the table looking down on my phone and read the message that Yara sent me

Yara: I swear to God, Danny was insane during the first period

Penelope: What do you mean?

Yara: Nobody in her clique was talking to her and I heard from Will that it was Nick and Cloud who threatened all of them to isolate her

Isn't that a bit too harsh? I have my fair share of isolation and it's not fun. It also gave me anxiety before

Yara: Also, a second update on Cloud. He is now getting suspicious of Aiden's sudden move to the seaside

Penelope: Do you have any clue what is he going to do about it?

Yara: Based on my knowledge from all the romance books that I've read, I suggest you to be wary of new people. He must've hired a private investigator and I have no clue what gender that investigator is

With Aiden's sudden move, of course, it would make Cloud suspicious. There was a cake pop that was held in front of my face suddenly that made me stop in my train of thoughts

Aiden held the cake pop "Well?"
I don't think Aiden would be a private investigator since he is already busy enough for his concert and studies, also, he hates Cloud. So he is crossed off of the list

I took a huge bite of the cake pop he held in front of my face, that one bite was huge that I finished the entire thing in one go "Thank you" I told him with my mouth still having the cake pop

He rolled his eyes before he grabbed a tissue to wipe some bits of the cake pop off on my face "What are you 2?" He chuckled as his honey brown eyes were glued to my lips while cleaning the corners of my mouth

His other hand was under my chin to make me face him and so that he could get a better view to find if he missed some spots

There were a lot of stares from the students at different tables around us "Aiden aren't you worried they'll be talking about us?"
