As Leon and Celestine walk together to the door.

Celes stopped;

And Leon turned back and look at her;

"Celes, is there a problem?" Leon asked

"I-I've been wo-wondering to ask you this.." Celes is asking with nervous tone.

"Sure i can answer a few questions so, what is it?" Leon answered and look at Celes with a stars on his eyes.

"Ca-Can we...." Celes blushed and screamed; "Can we hug and exchange numbers!!!?".

"Huh?" Leon looked at Celes with a face that's like he's not from this world.

Leon laughed, "You seriously scream that?! Hahahah...
I mean you should've just walk toward me and do that ,right? You know what?"

Leon walked forward and hugs her tight.
And Celes hugs him back.

"Better?" As Leon pat Celes's back.

"Yea, but my phoneeee? Has a problem on it." Celes made puppy eyes .

"I'm not a technician but might as well ask if what's seems to be a problem on it" Leon answered but still didn't let go of the hug.

"The problem of my phone is.. it doesn't have your number in it.." Celes look into Leon's eyes and wink with cute smile.
"Gotcha!" And Celes giggled.

"Really? I fell into that trap" Leon laughed. " That was smooth i gotta say.. but you won't get me that easily" Leon said as he pinch Celestine's nose.

"Oh, almost forgot."

Leon let go of the hug and reach in his back pocket to get his phone then tap to phone of Celestine.

"Now you have my number and i have yours". Leon said with devilish yet charming smile." I almost forgot, i overheard you were talking to Abby, How did you know that quote?"

"Oh,"Celes laughed. "You know that I'm like watching what you do at some time now.."

"Oh, so you're my stalker now I see, creepy." Leon showed disgust then laughed at Celes.

"It's not like that, i know that quote because i was with you when you known that quote". Celes being embarrassed and blush.

"You were with me? How? I was alone that time unless you--" Leon remembered about that girl on the library.

"Yes, I was wearing a mask that time. because i really don't want you to see my face back then. The book that you cover your face back then. You always use the same book. So i tried to read it and i saw that quote". Celes said.

"No wonder i didn't saw your face, but i remembered your smell tho" As Leon said that and he sniff Celes then laughed.

"Disgusting, But if it's you well it will be fine" Celes blush.

"Sorry but you won't get me that easily. If you're that girl, that doesn't mean that i will fall for you that quick." Leon Laughed.

"Someday Leon Rai you will be mine." Celes's laughs maniacally.

"Now come down stairs. Nick ,Abby and your other friends are waiting for us". Leon walk down the stairs and followed by Celes.

"Can we hold hands" Celes asked.

"Sure", Leon held Celes's hand as they walk down the stairs.

As Leon said Nick and others were waiting on them. And as both Leon and Celes walk to their own group. Nick rushed Leon to the side of the hallway and so as Abby rushing to Celes.

"So how did it go?" Nick and Abby said to both Leon and Celes at the same time.

"Well..." Leon and Celes said. "No matter let's celebrate, I'm buying this time." Nick followed up.

As Nick pat Leon's shoulder as they part ways for now with Abby and Celes.

" Leooooonnn!! My heart belongs to you and yours belong to miinneee" Celes shouted.

And the room door and windows open on the hallway filled with people looking at Leon mad.

"Ahhhh you know me too well. But I won't yield that easily". Leon shouted and walks on the sidewalk.

"Leon, do i have to make your eulogy now?" Nick teased Leon.

"Nah Nick, I won't go down that easy. Now let's go, i thought you were buying me right now". Leon said.

"Well, rest in peace allowance" Nick's tears fell a bit

"Don't worry, I'll be gentle". Leon growl like a wolf as he pat Nick's shoulder.

"Talk you later and see you tomorrow Rose" Leon waved goodbye.

" Bye hunny" Celes waved as well. Then the boys on the corridor throw like everything. Luckily Nick and Leon ran out already.

"Why is she so smooth about this things?" Leon asked Nick.

Nick patted Leon at the back of the head and said, " You are gonna ask me about this, Seriously?"

Celes and Abby go to the student council office while Nick and Leon go to the Convenience store and head to their dorm.

After Leon and Nick left, Celes and Abby walk to the Student Council office.

"Oooff that meeting was too tiring" Celes said as she stretch up a bit.

"Yea you said it.. I was really exhausted because of this" Abby replied.

As Celes and Abby go to the shoe locker.
" Are you sure you wanted him?" Abby ask.

"What kind of question is that Abby?" Celes frankly answered.

"I mean there are other people who wanted you more--" Abby said. As Celes open her shoe locker many letters fallen out of it.

" See what i mean Celestine, hmm?" Abby said.

"Didn't they heard me when i scream that i like Leon? Abby Help me dispose this." Celes said.

" Wow so cold Celes, Won't you might atleast tell them that you decline their confession?". Abby look sad for the boys.

"Well yeah i have to do it. And i have to be honest with them. I mean yes I am very thankful for being their crush but that's the only thing i can give them. To be an inspiration for them. Now if they are real, they would understand" Celes got determined as both of them picked up the letters.

"Now that's the right answer Celes. Now let's go, I'm hungry" Abby said as she pat Celes's back.

Celes and Abby picked up the letters and they go to their dorm.
