Yurika sat on an empty bench near the school garden and started crying her eyes out."If I were you, I would've stopped crying by now." Said by a familiar voice."Why are you here? You got what you want right? You beat me, again." The girl said with a heart shattering voice. Yuan chuckled and said."Do you really think that this is want I want?" If it's not then, what do you want?" Asked Yurika. She then found herself slammed into the bench with the guy's face inches away from hers. He was so close that she can almost hear him breathe."You, you're the one I want."
"W-what are you saying?!" Yurika stuttered as she spoke. "Just kidding! Hahahaha, you really fell for that." The guy said while teasing her."You arrogant jerk!" Yurika yelled."Now, now, sugar cube, you better get up and go back to the ceremony. Your parents are looking for you." The guy said who then stood up and walked away.
Yurika was left alone, still trying to figure out what just happened. And if Yuan was just playing mind games with her.

Back at the ceremony, Yuan's friends dragged him into the dance floor and forced him to dance with a random girl. Suddenly a slow and romantic music started playing. As he and the girl danced together, their eyes kept laying at each other's faces. But just like what happened in Cinderella's story, they didn't get the chance to know each other's names. Though they did feel a spark when they sway each other's bodies. By the time the end of the ceremony came, they have melted into a deep and passionate kiss. Everyone was speechless and almost all of them took photos of the unbelievable incident. Both Yuan and the girl were on cloud nine after they pulled away from each other. The day ended with Yuan not sleeping soundly and is just replaying what happened at the ceremony. He still freaks out of the fact that he had his first kiss that day.

The next day came like a flash of light. In every corridor, people surrounded him like ants and kept commending him for being the best once again. He approached them politely and said his thanks. On the other hand, Yurika was still floating on thin air, wondering about what Yuan said yesterday. Moreover there's this ridiculous rumor that's going around the school about Yuan's secret girlfriend who was apparently the one who kissed him in the dance. For some reason, Yurika felt a kind of rage the moment she saw photos of the girl and Yuan. No one knew who she was since she wasn't from their class."Hey Yurika, have you heard of the rumor about Yuan's girlfriend?" Asked Kokoro."Uh yeah." Yurika replied."It's so unbelievable isn't it?"
"Why do you think so?"
"Well, I never thought that a girl could ever fall for someone like Yuan." Kokoro answered."M-me too.." The girl muttered.

Yuan's POV:

I was called to the headmistress' office for some reason. But I think she's just going to congratulate me for being the best, as always. "I'm quite impressed Mr. Li. You've managed to make such a record." And I was right.
"Thank you Miss White, I'll make sure to keep up the achievements." I answered with respect to her."Very well then, you may now go." Finally, I can go back to looking for the girl I danced with last night.

3rd person's POV:

Yuan was walking through the corridors when he suddenly bumped into someone."Ouch, watch where you're going!"
"I'm so sorry it was my fault, here let me help you." The girl held her hand for Yuan. The guy stood up and looked at the girl. He then realized that it's the girl who he danced with last night.
"It's... you." He muttered in shock."Have we met before?" The girl asked."Oh uhhmm no, I must've confused you with someone." The guy answered."Oh well, I'm Caitlyn Brooke, nice to meet you." The girl held out her hand."I'm Yuan, Li Yuan nice to meet you too."

Yuan went back to the classroom.
"Seishin, come here you dimwit!"
"Yes Yuan, what is it that you want?"
"I want you to find information about a someone."
"Who, in particular?"
"Caitlyn Brooke"
"Ooohh, did Mr. Li finally found someone?"
"Shut up...she's, the girl I danced with yesterday."
"What in the world of Wattpad."
"Just stop talking and do what you're asked." Yuan said with a blushing face.

Yurika's POV:

I was on my way to the school garden when I saw a girl walking along its outskirts. She was talking to someone. Though I didn't paid much attention to them since I'm only here to get some fresh air. When suddenly, I saw who she was with. It was Yuan, "Wow, didn't expect him to find a new chick, that fast." I thought to myself while I hid around a couple of bushes so that I won't disturb their little date. Though I couldn't hear them clearly, I knew that they were getting along well because they were laughing and seemed so, close. Very close, it's as if they were, dating? Suddenly, I stepped on a large branch that made a loud sound. Yuan heard the sound and started walking to where I was hiding. I held my breath, hoping that he won't find me."I think it's just some stray animal." Phew, That was close. Now, back to where we were, I need to find out his relationship with this girl, then maybe I could use it to blackmail him.
"You know, Caitlyn the moment I laid my eyes on you, I realized that I was the luckiest guy in the world."
"And why's that?"
"Well, because I get to see such a magnetic force of a woman."
"Wow, I never thought you would be such a smooth talker."
Yeah right, that's what you thought, I bet any minute now that he'll be laughing his ass off because you fell for his trap. I was pretty confident on what I had expected to happen.
"But I'm not kidding, Caitlyn, I think you're beautiful,so beautiful that you made me like you, no.. love you."
"Oh my...Yuan, are you serious?"
"Yes, I am, so, Caitlyn Brooke, will you be the girl that I promise to love and protect till my last breath?"
"Yes, yes! Of course I want to!"
The newly made couple, let go of their inhibitions and let their selves melt into a magical kiss. They.. They, kissed.
Does this mean that she's his girlfriend? No, she can't be, Yuan is a jerk, he'd never take interest in someone. But moreover, why do I feel... jealous? Am I jealous? No, He's my nemesis so I can't be in love with him, I must be imagining things.
