Joulo rolled his eyes as the sound of girls running out of the school could be heard from his Lamborghini.

Without missing a beat, Jamie held his hand and gave him a reassuring smile and said, ❝ Don't worry, Joulo. As soon as they see me, they'll go back to wherever they were. Trust me, I know. Besides, I'm the most popular girl.❞ Joulo smirked as they stepped out of the car, hand in hand and walked into the school.

Jamie gave every fangirl the deadliest glare that she can possibly ever do, causing some to back off and cry while others continued to wave and try to get Joulo's attention.

As they walked into class together, Jamie leaned her head onto Joulo's shoulder and said, ❝ I'm happy your mine. ❞

Joulo simply replied, ❝ Yeah. ❞ As the passionately make out in the corner.

Jamie then wiped her lips and walked away saying, ❝ Bye babe! ❞

Then Joulo also said goodbye as he walked into class, which was already filled with students. The sound of girls squealing could be heard in the background.

❝ What? ❞Joulo asked his friends.

❝ How did it went with her last night? ❞James said, giggling like a little girl. ❝ Shut up the fuck up ,❞ Joulo replied.

❝ So, we going clubbing tonight? I have VIP passes, ❞ Shawn asked.❝ I don't know yet. I have to check with Jamie first,❞ Joulo replied.

❝ I don't get you. One minute, you're cheating on her, and the next, you're back to being a good boyfriend. It's just weird,❞ Matthew said, surrounded by two lucky girls.

❝ Joulo, will you be mine? ❞ a girl interrupted. He ignored her and looked away as another girl came up to him and said, ❝ Dump Jamie. I'm way better, and I come from a rich family too! ❞Joulo ignored them both until the teacher came in and settled the class down.

❝ Alright, class. Settle down. We have a new student,❞ the teacher announced, and the class started to get rowdy again.

❝ I wonder who the new student is? ❞ one person said.❝ I hope it's another hot guy! ❞ another person exclaimed.

❝ Better not be a girl because Joulo is mine!❞ a girl declared.

❝ I wonder who it is,❞ someone else stated.

The teacher instucted the new student to come in from the hall, and a girl with pinkish blond hair walked in.❝ This is Paula Gracie Givanna, our new student. Please treat her well,❞ the teacher said, smiling at Paula, who smiled back.

Paula looked at the class, smiled, and waved to class. Joulo's attention was immediately drawn to her hair. It had to be her. Who else would have that hair, he thought to himself.

As Joulo looked up, his eyes widen. He never thought he'd actually see her again.

❝Welcome, Paula. You can sit anywhere you like, ❞ the teacher smiled. Paula looked around the room and saw that every seat was occupied. Some seats even had purses and feet on them, warning her not to sit there.

However, Paula just smiled and continued to search for a seat. She eventually found one at the back of the room, where four guys were sitting around lazily, as if they're just hanging out at the mall.

Paula slowly walked towards them.❝ Joulo, it seems like there's another fangirl heading towards you. I hope she's not annoying because she's cute,❞ James said, eyeing the girl walking towards them.

As Paula took every step forward, students gasped and whispered. Some gave her death glares while others were worried for her.

Anyone who dared to sit beside Joulo, would be targeted by his loyal fans and his giflfriend. Paula smiled and sat down beside the leader of the group, not noticing who he was.

❝Joulo is taken, so I would rather you not go all over him. I'm just being nice and warning you,❞ Matthew said to her. Paula tilted her head, leaving the three of them wondering, while Joulo just stared at her from the corner of his eyes.

Paula smiled and nodded as she carefully placed her books on the table and focused at the teacher.

The classroom was silent as the teacher started to explain the lesson.❝ Alright, class, copy down these notes,❞ the teacher said, and the students began paying to focus to the lesson.

❝ Paula, right? Can I call you Pau-Pau? You're really cute! Don't be Joulo's fangirl, be mine instead,❞ James exclaimed, but Paula just continued to smile and focused on writing notes.

❝ What school did you come from?❞ Shawn, the lazy one, asked, but Paula said nothing and just smiled again.

❝ Are you not going to talk or at least say something?❞ Matthew asked, with all three of them looking at her, while Joulo remained cool, even when he was sitting beside her.

❝ You know you're different from other girls. Why aren't you drooling or even flirting?❞ James asked with curiosity. She still said nothing but remained quiet and smiled.

❝ Leave her alone,❞ the voice beside her said, and the three wondered why the hell would Joulo say that. That was the only time when Paula turned to see clearly who was sitting beside her.

He looked so familiar, and soon, her eyes brightened up, and she smiled at him quickly, getting Joulo to turn his head towards her. She smiled and stared at him.

❝ Joulo, do you know her? ❞ Matthew asked, only to see Joulo turned his head and looked out the window.

❝ Hey, why don't you talk? It's a bit troublesome,❞ Shawn asked, with deep curiosity.

❝ She's mute,❞ Joulo said emotionless, getting Paula to feel a bit embarrassed.

❝ Oh, shit! Our bad, sorry,❞  Matthew said.

All Paula did was look at the board and continued to write down the notes. She continued to smile even though she hated it when people found out that she was mute.

She smiled, but she felt her tears rolling down her cheeks. It had been so long since she cried this much, missing her grandmother broke her down.

The tears caught Joulo's attention. She was crying, yet at the same time, she was smiling. It annoyed him that she would smile no matter what, while the other three were copying their notes, not noticing that she was crying.

As Paula tried to write, her hands began to trembled and her eyes got blurry. James started noticing this and voiced out his concern, in which Shawn and Matthew to follow.

James placed a calming hand on Paula's back,❝ Hey, are you okay? Want me to call the teacher? ❞ However, Matthew was quick to dismiss the notion, stating ❝ Leave her alone. ❞

Despite being in class, it was evident that Paula was not okay as tears continued to flow on her cheeks.

Yet, suddenly, a hand appeared in front of her. Paula was surprised as she looked up to see Joulo, who was not looking at her but stared out of the window handed her his handkerchief, saying, ❝ Stop crying; it's annoying. ❞

Paula smiled through her tears as she took the handkerchief, wiping away the tears from her eyes. Suddenly, she realized Joulo's words were right; she had to stop crying and focus on her studies, so she could succeed and make her grandma proud.

With that, Paula gave a bright smile and turned to the teacher as he continued teaching.

Soon, the bell rang, and Paula quickly gathered her belongings to leave for her next class.

James asked if she knew where she was going, and she responded with a smile and nod.

Despite this, James and the others offered to walk her to class,❝ Hey, let's walk her to class, what class do you have? Let me see your schedule, ❞ taking a peek at her schedule in the process.

James found it interesting that she had math and said. ❝ That's interesting. It sucks we don't have another class with her – she's the only girl I can probably get along with. ❞

Finally, James took Paula's hand and led her out of the classroom, followed by the other boys.
