The Question

POV Carlos

I walk toward my blond boyfriend. He sits in the corner hugging his legs. He doesn't look great. His beautiful eyes are full of tears. I know he won't talk to me about what happened but I have to be there for him.

"Hey," I state and I smile at him. "Hi," Seb says with a broken voice. I sit next to him. "You okay?" I ask although I know the answer by just looking at him. Seb doesn't reply.

"Do I have to bring you something? Anything?" I ask. Seb slowly shakes his head. "I actually wanted to talk to you," I state.

Seb turns to me and I smile. There is no smile on his face.

"Can you please talk to me, Seb?" I whisper. Seb swallows and nods. "Are you okay?" I ask. A tear escapes from his eye and he shakes his head.

"What happened?"

"I can't tell you," he whispers back.

"I want to help you," I state.

"You can't"

The tears form in my eyes too. I try to give him a hug but he pushes me away. I see his arm which has scratches all over them.

"I can't believe your parents do this to you," I state. "Let me help you. Otherwise, your parents will kill you with this," I state. I try to make it sound like it's sarcastic but it's not.

"Don't you understand?" Seb says. "You can't help. We can't be together anymore. We have to break up."

The words hit like a bomb. We can't break up. He needs me. I need him.

I shake my head. "Don't do this," I beg. Seb looks away. "I have to," he states with tears streaming down his cheeks.

"I don't want this. You don't want this," I state. Seb hides his face in his hands and sniffs loudly.

"You should go," he whispers. "I'm not leaving," I say. Seb stands up and walks away. "Sebastian, come back!" I shout after him. "Seb-," my voice breaks.

He left.

I stay behind. Crying. I can't let him go. I have to let him go.

POV Miss Jenn (~Time Skip~)

Everyone walks into the classroom. I see Carlos entering the classroom alone and I walk toward him.

"Where is Seb?" I ask. "I don't think he'll come," he states and he walks off. There is no smile on his face.

That's weird. Carlos always smiles. But Carlos is kinda weird so I think he's okay.

"Welcome, everyone," I shout to get everyone's attention. "Today we are going to do a simple exercise about staying in character since some of you might need that," I state and I stare at Nini.

"I want you all to stay in character the whole lesson," I state.

"So, Nini, that's wrong," I state. "You must smile all the time. You are Isabella. You must be perfect," I state and Nini immediately puts the famous Isabella-fake-smile on her face.

"Perfect! Kourtney, stand strong, show your muscles," I state to Kourtney and she straightens her back.

Steph looks anxious with her eyes widened. She will do great as Doloris. Ashlyn steps away from Big Red which makes everyone laugh.

They will make a hilarious Abuela and Bruno.

"Now, we'll do a short scene. Hello, I'm Elsa," I state and I throw some paper shreds in the air. "I let it go," I sing.

Nini steps forward. "I would like to ask you where you're from and why you're here. And if it doesn't bother you, can you make it stop snowing cuz my flowers don't love your snow as much as you do," she states.

I smile. "I'm Queen Elsa from Arendelle. I'm here because I need a place to stay for a few days," I state.

Ashlyn moves forward. "We don't want Freaks like you in our familia," she says and she turns her back to me.

"Luisa, please remove this fake Queen," Ashlyn states, and Kourtney sighs but she pretends to lift me and puts me away.

"Very good, everyone!" I state excitedly. "We'll do a new scene," I say and I act like I'm Daisy Duck.

"Well done, everyone. Go home now, we'll continue tomorrow," I say and everyone walks out of the room.

I take some tables and put them back in their places as Benjamin Mazzara stands behind me. I turn around and look into the staring eyes of my colleague.

"Holy Bruno Madrigal, how do you just appear without me noticing," I ask. "You can make the stage magical, I can make me magical, okay?" he says.

I frown. What did he just say? What did it mean?

"I actually wanted to ask you something," he says.

"What did you want to ask me?"

"A question."

I blink my eyes a few times. Is he serious?! "Well... Okay... go for it," I say.

"Can I ask my question?" he asks. I nod. "Yes..." I say.

"Well, my question is uhm-," he starts. I stare at him. "The question is... will you go out?" he asks.

"I guess, I'm going out of this classroom in a minute when I go home, then it's all yours," I say.

"I didn't mean that," he says. "The question was actually different," he says.

"Why don't you just ask me what you want to ask?!" I suggest and he nods.

"Will you go out with me?" he asks.

"The Robotics teacher wants to go out with me?" I think out loud and Benjamin slowly nods. "Eek- of course I want that," I state and I give Benjamin a hug.

He awkwardly stays in the same position and I quickly let go. "Uh- okay, I'll text you the details," he says and he walks out of the classroom.

AAAAAAAAAHHHHGGGGGGG It took me so long to write this, I'm sorry. I'm also very sorry about Seblos.... I don't want them to break up :(

Maybe it's better like this... maybe will Seb's parents be nicer to him now...?

I hope you liked this chapter!

Also, I kind of got an idea from a friend of mine (yes, I have friends) so I'm planning to do something I'm probably gonna regret... You'll see...

Love, Anna <3
