7 - Estella gets a tutor

*Estella's Pov*
You guys forgot about me huh? Well shame on you did. Now let's head into the story.

Although Ren is my sitting partner, I still wonder if he saw the cigs and the lighter.

Ah well, I just have to be cautious. I exhaled the last smoke in my lungs before crushing the cig.

As I got to my locker for extra nicotine gum and cigs, I heard the siren say, "Estella, please head to the Principal's office immediately,"

That alone was enough to send shivers down my spine. As I made my way to to the Principal's office, I neatly tucked in my shirt and straightened it.

I combed my hair with my fingers and straightened my skirt.

Al I could think of was why I was called, if I was in trouble or I dunno if I'm getting expelled....

I opened the door and gave a respectful "good afternoon madam," to the Principal.

"Ah yes good afternoon Estella, how are you?" She asked.

Readers, if an adult asks of your well being, especially in an office just know that you're in trouble.

"I'm doing well ma'am," I told her. "Very well then, please take a seat," She instructed and when I sat down, guess who I saw?

Please don't say some other person's name if you did please bathe in holy water.

Guys I saw Ren. "Wait why's Ren's here?" I wondered. "What kind of trouble did me get into?"

"Estella, Estella, {goes through her files} Ah yes Estella {opens my file} let's see, you're average in all subjects which I hope you would do better in, all except mathematics," She read my file.

"I understand that ma'am but why is Ren here?" I asked.

"Good question, Ren here {smiles} is a straight A+ student, which is why I want him to tutor  to the end of the semester," She said.

"Say what?" Ren and I said at the same time. I looked at him and he looked at me.

We were looking at each other and gosh, his eyes, {mentally bites lips} I got into those precious eyes of his.

Wait eww what am I saying? " That's all Estella you may leave," She pointed to the door.

I smiled and walked out, closing the door behind me.

As much I wanted to leave, I thought, "Why don't eavesdrop?" So I placed my ear on door.

"But ma'am with all due respect, I can't tutor her," Ren said.

"Is it because you don't want to or you you don't have the tutoring abilities which I know you have?" The principal asked.

"Yes, the second one, I'm not so good at tutoring," Ren confessed.

"Now now my child, {pats his shoulder} I know tutoring isn't easy, but you must {she gives him a bag of sanitizers and tissues} for my sake. Now bye~"

She pushed him out through the door and my stupid self didn't see Ren coming so we bumped into each other.

"I'm sorry Ren, I didn't see you," I apologized as he wiped himself clean.

"It's alright," He said but underneath his mask you can tell he had the face of, "OMG SHE JUST TOUCHED AND WHY THE F AM I TUTORING HER!!"

"Well, since you're on your way to practice, how about I also leave? See ya!"I ran away as fast I could to the rooftop.

What does the Principal think she's doing? {Lights cigarette} Bad at maths {scoffs} bad at math my ass, I'm even better than most people.

And does Ren hate me because I slammed a locker in his face and eavesdrop on their conversation?

{Exhaled smoke} whatever. I don't know why but I my legs took me to the volleyball court and Ren was there, gracefully dabbing his covered face with a towel.

Ugh I mean he just dabbed his half covered face with a towel. And unfortunately he noticed me.

He got closer to me and pulled me by the wrist, " You know I really don't like it when you keep running away," he said.

Gosh his palms are so big but so soft and warm.

My bold ass pulled him down to my height by his collar and dragged him outside.

"Listen here mister, I don't care what you and the principal said about me but that doesn't mean I need a tutor," I told him.

"{Scoffs} I know, see you at 5pm {sends me address} my place, don't be late." He said. "Wait you mean today right?" I asked.

"Yup {boops my nose} don't be late," he jogged back to practice.
