Standing here, while listening to the person I really admire, she's giving a speech about the rights of LGBTQIA+, which makes me fall deeper. I like her since JHS; she's the reason I came here to school early in the morning; she's the reason that I enjoy being here in school, even though school stinks.

The best part is we're close—I mean, i mean kinda close—we interact, unlike her admirers, whose only thing they can do is look at her. Please be jealous, boys; this girl is mine. Kidding kekekkek

I used to hate my name, but when she's the one who calls me by my name, it's like a lullaby to my ears. I really do like her so much.

I was so mesmerized by her beauty that I didn't notice her speech was already done. I was about to approach her, but some of her admirers rushed and accidentally pushed me, which is why I lost my balance and almost fell, but someone caught me before I fell.

I look at the person who cought me on time. Just when I look at him, he is already staring at me. I freeze a bit when I also stare at his beautiful green eyes.

"Are you okay?" He asked. I gently nodded.

"Yeah, thank you". I response

" Hey, Giselle." A lovely lady that I adore called me. I look at her.

Hey Elise.

is everything good in here? She asked, I nod then smiled.

yes, actually, he helped m—

—Hi Jhaycob, its good to see you here. Its my first time to see you appear in this type of event.

Giselle's mind: what do they know each other? Jhaycob is quite familiar.

Well, I just passed by, then decided to stay a bit, but I'll go now.

Okay, then see you around. Elise said with a wide smile. Jhaycob just nodded, then left.

Do you know each other? I confusedly asked. Elise looked at me, then nodded.

Of course, who wouldn't know the ace of our school? She said, then chuckled.

Giselle's mind: Ace of our school? Jhaycob.jhaycob.jhaycob. aha! He was the basketball captain and the MVP of our campus who stole the hearts of women on our campus. Well, I can say that he was good-looking.

Wait, if he stole a lot of girls hearts on our campus, does that mean Elise is one of them? Oh, please don't, my baby girl.

I thought that there would be no class today because of the event, but I'm disappointed because we have, and worse, it's physics.

While looking at the board and not listening to the teacher, someone suddenly knocked.

Oh, Jhaycob the teacher greeted the guy who was wearing a varsity jacket and sweating. or maybe he washed up; that's why his hair is wet.

Don't you have a practice today? The teacher asked

We're already done, Mr. Can I still join the class? He sincerely asked

Of course. Of course, get in and have a seat anywhere you want.

I was staring at him as he walked. I was shocked when I thought that he would sit next to Elise. But I was wrong because he came to me.

Can I sit here? He asked, and I nodded.

Yeah, sure. I respond that, as he sat, I couldn't help but inhale his scent. Girl, he smells good; he smells like a fresh baby, a scent that I can sniff all day without having a migraine. I wouldn't mind if I always smelled this kind of scent.

I put my chin in my palm, enjoying his scent. Wait, Omygod, I look like I'm obsessed—well,  obsessed—with his scent.

Ms. Chavez. the teacher, suddenly called, and I blinked.

Yes, sir. I respond, then stand up.

After we get the x and y, what is the next step we are going to take?

Giselle's mind: Oh, shoottt, this is quite embarrassing. Oh, come on, Giselle.

Ehem graph ehem I heard Jhaycob whisper

Graphing I said the teacher smile.

Very good the teacher said. I exhaled. That was close. I almost embarrassed myself. This is the second time he has helped me. He's an angel.

You should focus. I heard Jhaycob say

Well, I am. I respond, and he looks at me, then looks at my table.

Where's your text book and pens then? He asked, and I bit my lower lip.

Well, you know I was about to, you know. I said

But before that I added, then asked the stupidest question, which I should not have asked. Well, I'm curious though.

Which perfume or cologne did you use right now?

It's lunch time, and I was looking to see where Elise was. Where did my baby girl go? I can't find her. When the class ended, I just saw her talking to our classmate, but when I looked again, she went missing. Where could she be?

As I looked around, I froze when I saw her with Jhaycob, and she's smiling and laughing! Omygod, my eyes. I'm not supposed to see this kind of situation, Jhaycob!

Hey, Gissele, why aren't you going to line up to grab some food? Elise asked.

Well, I just arrived. I was actually about to.i lie, I was here before that guy you were with. What's his deal? I mean i dont have the right to be jealous, but I can't stop it.

There's something in your hair. Jhaycob randomly said, then touched my girl's hair. How could he? I rolled my eyes. Does he really need to do that right in front of me?

You drop this. He said, and he was holding my handkerchief. I give him a forceful smile.

Thanks a lot. I sarcastically said.

I lost my appetite and my energy because of what happened in the cafeteria. That guy, ugh, i was right, my instincts right that he likes Elise, so annoying, why can't he find someone else? And my Elise was smiling at him, huh? This can't be happening!!

Giselle, can you do me a favor? A lovely dove asked, and all my energy was restored.

Yes, of course. What is it? I said while smiling.

Can you put this in Jhaycob's locker, please? she said, and I feel my heart drop.

Elise, we have to go. One of my classmates called her.

Thak you, Giselle! She said, Is this the sign that there is therefore something between them? Im hurt, huh? No!!! 

Im frustrated looking at Jhaycobs locker. I want to destroy it using a baseball bat or punch it like this. shug,shug shug

What are you doing? Someone suddenly asked, and I froze when I realized who it was. 

I hope you enjoy this first chapter , love you!!
