"That was the worst way possible to start a day!"

"Hey you were the one who wanted to go to the cafe!" Lucas chuckled.

"No! I said I wanted food. Your the one who wanted to go to cafe." I argued back.

"It's not like we knew Helena was going to be there." Lucas looked aside as if remembering what happened.

"Do you know if she's in her office?" I pointed towards the principal's door.

"Yes. She doesn't even go out for food, she would just order."

'I forgot how unhealthy she was.... I remembered walking into this room while she was eating fried chicken...'

"Well.... You ready to go inside?" I held on the door knob but didn't open the door yet.

"If I said no, can we not go in?" Lucas sighed.

"Nope. We're going in whether you like it or not!" I grinned at Lucas.

I opened the door knob to see a full grown women who had black hair with some streaks of white, She had purple eyes, she was holding a pen and writing paper.

"Mother." Lucas waved towards the principal who didn't even notice us being too focused at her papers.

"Lucas! And Athy!" The principal's eyes shined brightly as if just given life!

"Good morning Principal!" I bowed a 90° to make it look as formal as possible.

"Athy! I already told you call me aunty!" The women snapped at me.

"Sorry aunty..." I scratched my neck.

'How long ago did you give me that command...'

"Here's some food mum." Lucas handed her a plastic bag that contained a ice coffee and a plastic container that had salad in it, Lucas ordered it after we finished eating the food we ate at the cafe.

"Thank you Lucas...." Her tone when from super excited to depressed and sad.

"Why did you have to get me salad..." The principal stuck her tongue out in disgust.

"Because it's healthy!" Lucas put it on her table.

"I'll take the coffee but.... Can you take away the salad?" The principal begged Lucas like a child.

"No. Your eating it!" Lucas bluntly denied.

Knock knock

"Miss may I enter?"

"Yes." The principal immediately acted like an adult again as if her previous behavior was none existent.

"You need to go to your meeting in five minutes."

"This is about the workers complaints about their salary right?" The principle rubbed her head and let out a sigh.

"Your dismissed."

The door closed.

"I'm sorry lu-" the principal tried to apologize but was cut off.

"No need." Lucas tone turned cold...

"If workers are complaining about their salary can't they just reason it out, as in listen to why the workers say they don't have enough salary...?" I whispered to myself as I thought about the situation.

"Because they say they work for too many hours!" The principal slammed her table utterly annoyed.

'Her sense's are as good as Lucas's...'

"You could hire more workers?" Lucas said bluntly.

"If we hire more workers we need to spend more money which is not preferable."

"What if you cut their salary?" I whispered which was caught by both Lucas and his mother who gave a face of 'What's going through this girls head!'

"I mean! Like you cut a little bit of there salary, then base on students votes they get ' bonus ' which would help increase their salary."

"It's not a bad suggestion..." The principle rubbed her chin while she flipped the paper.

"This would all help them pay more attention to their students!" Lucas tried to increase the value of my suggestion.

"I'll bring this up to the others..." Lucas mother's eyes lit up.

"Umm Aunty the clock...." I pointed to the clock. She only had one minute to rush to the meeting.

"Huh!?! Geez! Why am I going to get punished for getting late when I'm the principal!" Lucas mother complained and rushed off.

Thud.

Lucas sighed as he looked away from the door.

"You ok?" I looked at Lucas who sat down on the principal's seat and sorting out her papers.

"Yes I'm fine...." Lucas sorted out her papers quite quickly.

'Then what's with the depressed attitude!'

"Your expression says otherwise..." I stated.

"Fine.. you caught me...." Lucas raised up his hands in a surrender sign.

"Lucas do you think we can help her?"

"What do you mean?" Lucas raised his eyebrow.

"Like maybe every other day after school we come to her office and help as advisers or cleaners." I looked around at her office which was rather.... Untidy....

'This place looks like a pigs den...' I thought to myself of course not saying it out loud, Lucas might have the same opinion but it's still offensive...

"Athy if we come here every other day won't that be suspicious? No one other then you, kiel and probably Jennette knows I'm the principal's son."

"Why are you hiding it anyway?"

"I don't want more fakes around me."

"I don't think that number would ever decrease with your looks.." I mumbled.

"Oh? So you think I'm good looking?" Lucas stood up from the chair and walked towards me. He had his signature annoying smirk on his face.

'I really got to learn to keep my mouth shut!' I scolded myself internally.

"N-No!" I denied it as I backed up.

"Look at your own face right now." Lucas chuckled.

There was no mirror in the room, but I didn't need one I knew that I was blushing really hard.

"S-Shut up!"

~Lucas POV~

'So cute...' I stared at her blushing for awhile then I backed away.

"I guess your right... I'm already surrounded by fakes it won't be any different..."

"Plus you'll get to spend more time with your mother!" Athy beamed as she started picking up the crushed papers on the floor.

"Yeah I guess...." I smiled.

"I really should get my phone fixed soon...." Athy pouted.

"I'm missing so may picture perfect opportunities!"

"For once I'm glad that, that bastard broke your phone." I said bluntly.

"Mean..." Athy pouted and puffed up her cheeks as she continues to clean the principal's office with me.

'Im so lucky to have someone like you Athy...' I couldn't help but smile at the thought.
