We Are Just Friends...right?- Justin Degryse × OC

Chapyer 12 - The Activities

*  Intrise  *

IT was a beautiful chaotic mess. Students of every school in the area were mixing up, getting to know others. I had lost our group just after the crowds started mixing up, but I'm sure we'll all find each other soon.

I spotted a younger looking girl in blue blazers and I went over to her.

"Hi there, welcome to Vrienden Iovera! I'm Intrise, what's your name?"

"Em-emily" she stammered out.

"Well Emily you have beautiful blonde hair. And your green eyes really stand out too. I love your green eyes. You seem lost though? Would you like me to give you a tour?"

"Y-yes please. I usu-usually have my sister with m-me"

"I see....well, come on then, let me help you taste some of Iovera's croissants, the bakery we get them from have French bakers and they are the best!"

She looked excited at the idea of eating something and immediately held my hand tightly which made my heart melt.

She had beautiful blonde hair, bright green eyes and a cute, baby-ish face. I couldn't guess her age, but all students must be above 13 to be chosen to as a scout to go represent their school.

I asked her and said "14, B-but I'm turning 15 soon..."

She seemed so young, lost and innocent that I couldn't help liking her.

We had almost reached the cafeteria when Crystallina decided to show up.  She neatly stuck out her dainty little foot and almost tripped Emily over, but I caught Emily just in time.

"Well well well, look who's here. A helpless scum with a dumb blond. Nice pair, you two." 

"Leave us be, Crystalina, it's none of your business who I hang out with." I snarled at her.

"Whatever, see you friendless losers later!", she flipped her hair and sashayed away.

I could still feel Emily trembling, and it took me a while to reassure her that everything's fine.  She didn't calm down until a chocolate shake and a croissant later.

"Wh-who was she?" I could still hear the fear in her voice.

I smiled reassuringly at her.
"Just a mean girl from my school. You don't need to worry about Crystalina, she won't bother us of a much. I'll take care of her."

Her muscles relaxed visibly and she smiled up at me. Her bright green eyes reflected the smile and I couldn't help but smile back.

"I still don't understand why Crystalina has got to be so mean. She obviously made a lasting impression on Emily. I must report this to Justin. He'll probably be able to handle it." , I thought.

Speak of the devil.....I heard a voice call out my name and turned back to find the gang walking towards me.

"Hi you all. Where were you guys? I lost you so easily in the crowds!" I complained while hugging Maya.

"Long story short Connor saw someone he thought he knew but ended up embarrassing himself so we had towards cover it up.", Stan rushed out while grabbing a seat.

I noticed Max staring at Emily. I cleared my throat and he shook himself and said "So who's the little beauty here?", while grabbing a seat next to Emily.

"I- I'm Emily Raincomprix from Daffodils Boarding Academy.", she stammered.

"Well, the name of the school fits, I guess. Are all students pretty as a flower or is it just the one I was fated to meet, Miss Raincomprix?"
Max winked at her.

Emily blushed, and the rest of us could only gasp and stare in surprise. Max was never really the one to flirt.

I smirked. This was going to be interesting.
