"When I'm sad I make out with nerdy boys."
"Why nerdy boys?"
"Because they think they're in love with me. Which feels amazing, until they get clingy and wanna show me all of their things."
"I don't think I'm in love with you."
"Sure you don't."

A/N: I feel like series 3 of sex education left a lot of unanswered questions. It was interesting, but I think it could've been better. Don't judge me though, I'm sensitive lol. Also, I'll be going away for a bit so hopefully this extra long chapter holds you guys until then.

"You ever wondered what the theme of your life is? You know that perfect word or sentence to sum up your existence?"
"No, but if I had to guess I'd say my theme is glamorous. All beauty, glitter, and gold."
"I can see it. You lounging in a long all white couch, dog in hand. Servants waiting on you. You never have to want for a thing in Ruby's world..."
"That's a little specific, but I like the sound of it Otis. One question though..."
"What?"
"Where do you fit in Ruby's world? You seem to have thought of everything else."
"Me? Oh I'll be your most loyal manservant and secret lover of course."
"Otis!" I laughed.
"I kid, I kid. I, of course will be your handsome rich husband. That sounds more like me."
"Good. Well when you find your riches, come find me."

Ruby's POV
I STARED AT HIM SLEEPING so peacefully, and I thought to myself if only you knew. My alarm would have rung soon, but I turned it off for the simple fact that I didn't want it to wake him. School could wait. I doubted we'd be late after all.
A soft knock penetrated my door before Marta boldly walked in carrying my clothes in hand. I normally give her my outfit the night before school so she can press it to perfection. Today however, she didn't say anything as she looked at me and Otis lying there for a second before she smiled knowingly and walked away.
She confided in me once that she liked Otis more than the rest. Said he was "good for me" but what does she know. I don't even know what's good for me...
Seconds later my phone vibrated as I got text from Marta.
Marta: I hope you're being safe. Looks like you had a fun night. Just be careful, darling.
Ruby: I always am, Marta but just for arguments sake let's keep this between us, yeah?
Marta: You're secrets safe with me, Ruby. I had my fair share of flings too when I was your age.
Ruby: Eww, no I didn't need to know that Marta!
Marta: Sorry, darling. I know I can be a bit blunt, but just know your Marta was a how you say a "hot chick" back then too.
