Lunch time was over, and English class began, The time was two p.m. Many students were in the classroom as they were chatting with each other, Alex was seen sitting while looking at the window, waiting for Scarlett to enter the class.

During the weekend, Scarlett and Alex shared a good time together for two nights, even though it was extremely risky, The English teacher felt oddly attracted to her student and she couldn't push that feeling aside to be with him.

Alex himself felt attracted by her presence and beauty, He knew it was wrong to be with his teacher, but he also couldn't push the feeling away.

The chattering stopped once Miss Johansson entered the classroom.

Scarlett: Enough chattering, Let's begin with class.

The students stayed quiet as Scarlett immediately laid her eyes on Alex, She recalled those nights I her head, which caused a small smirk on her face. Alex looked at her and smiled a little as Scarlett continued staring at him along with the other students before she cleared her throat and began speaking.

About an hour and a half passed as students were taking notes while Scarlett was watching them, She looked at Alex, who was focused on writing as she smiled a little and continued looking at him.

The bell rang as English class was over, and Scarlett gave the students an assignment to finish within a week and warned them to focus on their studies, Most of the students left the classroom as Alex was ready to leave until Scarlett cleared her throat and spoke to him.

Scarlett: Stay here.

Alex: What do you need, Miss?

Scarlett: No need for the formality, I just wanted to talk.

She spoke while slowly approaching towards him, Alex was looking at her as she looked at him before leaning closer.

Scarlett: I hope you will finish your assignment on time. I need you to focus on your studies.

Alex: *Chuckles* Maybe if you stop being so beautiful, then I could focus.

Scarlett had a small smile on her face as she began staring at him.

Scarlett: Flirtatious, I like that. . . Anyways, I have to admit, you're a good kisser~

She leaned closer as Alex smiled and touched her chin while they stared at each other.

Alex: You were amazing as well.

Scarlett: You're not gonna tell this to anyone. . . Will you?

Alex: Not at all.

Scarlett: Good, I couldn't stop thinking about you during class, though.

Alex smiled and began tracing his fingers around her jaw, The tension between them grew, and their desire for each other was starting to ignite

Alex: Are you ready for another time?

She smirked a little and fixed her hair.

Scarlett: Of course, but not now. I have some work to do.

Alex: I know, We obviously aren't doing it in the classroom.

The tension faded away, and Scarlett laughed a little as Alex was smiling at her before he kissed her cheek, Scarlett smiled at him again before leaning to his ear and kissing it

Scarlett: See you later, Alex.

Alex: Take care, See you later.

She winked and walked away as Alex was watching her, Once she finally left the classroom. Alex couldn't stop thinking about her for some reason, He never realised he was into his teacher like that, A small smile grew on his face as he grabbed his bag and left the classroom.

Jason was seen staring at the wall after accounting class was over, He was still stunned about the news of his father's heart problems, He felt restless and worried. Jason has also been looking for a part-time job in order to pay for his father's treatment.

Seth, Anna, and Tay are noticing that Jason has been avoiding them since the party, They entered the empty classroom and quickly approached him. The trio were really concerned by his silence.

Tay: Hey, Jason. Are you okay?

Anna: We noticed you have been awfully silent.

Seth: Jason? Are you listening to us?

Jason immediately shook his head and realised his friends were in the classroom, He was distracted by his thoughts and feelings as he looked at his friends.

Seth: What's wrong, man?

Jason: . . . . I'm fine.

They knew he was lying as Jason continued looking at them as Anna said something.

Anna: You don't look fine at all, Jason.

Tay: We are friends, Jason. You can tell us anything.

Jason: I-I know. And I appreciate that.

He spoke in a low tone until he raised an eyebrow and stared at Anna and Seth, He wanted a question to be answered right now.

Jason: Are you two dating?

Seth: What? Of course not.

Anna: *Smacks Seth's arm* He's talking about what happened at the party!

Tay bit her tongue as Seth cringed and remembered what happened when him and Anna were drunk, Anna's face was already red as Jason continued staring at them.

Jason: You two were really drunk that day.

Anna: It was an accident! Gosh, I should not have drunk too much.

Seth: Yeah, but don't get the wrong idea, Jason.

Shadow kept his eyebrow raised as Anna and Seth felt awkward while Tay was holding her laughter.

Finally, Jason decided to tell them about his father's health warning as the trio were shocked and felt bad for Jason's father. They were also really concerned now.

Tay: Oh my god. . . I'm so sorry to hear about that, Jason.

Anna: I understand this is hard for you. . .

Seth comforted him by patting his back as Jason stared at the ground and shook his head.

Jason: I'm just really scared right now. . .

They frowned and continued looking at him as his friends decided to comfort him and let him know that they were there for him, Jason did feel comforted knowing that his friends and family were there for him.

But unknown to them, someone was actually listening to the

About five minutes passed as the trio left the classroom but didn't see the person, As Jason was following them out. He noticed it was Jessica as her eyes widened while Jason looked shocked.

Jason: Jessica? Were you listening to us?

Jessica: Uhhh. . . I'm sorry, that was wrong of me.

Jason frowned again and looked at the ground, He didn't really mind, though. Jessica covered her mouth and felt guilty once she got caught. However, she did want to give him some support.

Jessica: I'm really sorry to hear about your father's health. . . I'm wishing him a speedy recovery.

Jason: Thanks. . .

He was still sad as Jessica continued staring at him, She felt sad for him as she slowly grabbed his hand.

Jessica: I'm here if you need someone to talk to.

Jason felt his heart skip a beat as he looked at her, She was willing to give him support and comfort even if they didn't know about each other too much.

Now Jason was thinking about his father again, He really needed a part-time job. . . Or even multiple jobs to support his family.

Damian was sitting by the staircase while thinking about something, He had been starting to hang out with Finn, Luis, and Rhea. He didn't exactly consider them as friends, Damian just seemed to find them interesting, and their presence was a bit enjoyable but a little annoying as well. But that was because he never really enjoyed being around people.

Damian was sitting while thinking about his upcoming class, That was until he heard someone running fast but Calaway didn't pay attention, He saw a student who looked scared and had a scar on his cheek as he noticed the mysterious and brooding man, The student immediately felt unsettled as Damian continued staring at the ground.

Student: Uhh. . . Hey, I need some help.

Damian glared at him and already felt annoyed, The student felt scared, but he really needed his help.

Student: I-I'm sorry. There are just those jocks-

Suddenly two water bottles were thrown at the student's head as Damian looked surprised, The student was holding his head until two bullies approached to their victim and one of them kicked his ankle as the student fell down while holding his ankle in pain.

Damian got up and looked a little angry, He didn't like it when he saw someone getting bullied, The bullies were laughing at him until they stopped once they saw Damian.

Calaway was glaring at both of them as the two bullies stepped back in fear.

Bully: H-Hey, We don't have a problem with you...

Damian grabbed one of the bullies' throats and pushed him to the wall as the other bully and the bullied student were shocked, Damian began gripping his throat even tighter, causing the bully to suffocate.

The other bully stepped back in fear and tried to run away, but Damian grabbed him by his shirt, ripping half of it before pulling him and punched him in the face.

Damian looked at the other bully who was trying to breathe as Calaway spoke in a menacing tone.

Damian: Know your place. . .

The bullies stared at him in shock as Damian tried to attack both of them again until he heard a whistle as they turned around and saw who it was.

Rhea: He was warning you, Now scram.

Rhea spoke in an intimidating tone as the bullies immediately ran away in fear, Damian felt angry by the fact Rhea stopped him from his fight, He was starting to enjoy beating them up.

Damian stared at the bullied student as Calaway helped him stand in his feet, The student was really shocked that Damian was actually helping him.

Rhea couldn't help but smile, She could see Damian had a soft side to at least help the student. . . Even if its the worst way possible.

The student looked at Damian before walking away, Calaway was starting to cool down but he had some dangerous intentions with those bullies. His thoughts were interrupted when Rhea snapped her fingers and smiled at him.

Rhea: I'm still here.

Damian just stared at her as Rhea walked towards him and continued smiling at him.
