Miss Bossy and Mr. Cool

Chapter 19

What is our schedule for tomorrow? Let me see. I took my notebook and checked it out. Ah. We have P.E. I guess I have to bring my P.E. uniform.

I stretched my arms and looked at the time. It's already 10'oclock. I have to sleep. But first, I have to pack my P.E.uniform. Yep.

Next day, I locked my apartment room and went downstairs. I yawned. I'm still a bit sleepy.

"You really sleep a lot.", a voice just went beside my ears. It's Gab. I gave distance between us.

"It can't be helped, right?", I replied.

At the end, we walked together to school. Why do I always have someone with me?

"See you later, Prez.", Gab excused and went to his class. Ahh at last I'm alone.

"Lenny..", BJ suddenly appeared infront of me, smiling like a gentleman.

"Good morning BJ.", I greeted. Ahhh.. only a few minutes of being alone.

"Why can't you be more cheerful like before? You know like, 'Oh. Good morning BJ!' (in a cute girly way) then giggle.", he pouted.

"Ahh... Am I really like that before?", I asked innocently.

"Seriously? You forgot your personality 3 years ago?", BJ looked at me with his large eyes.

"Sort of."

"You really did change a lot Lenny."

"I didn't notice at all. All I just said to myself is that I'll never trust anyone except my family and you.", I explained.

"Hmm?", he smiled.

"What?", I asked him curiously. Is it funny?

"I'm just happy to have your trust.", he grinned. I raised my eyebrows and shrugged.

The class began. And unexpectedly, our grumpy teacher is in a good mood today. I wonder why. Oh well, it's a big relief. He always yells and throws chalks at my stubborn classmates. But now he's smiling and speaking carefully. Weird.

"Class dismissed.", he announced. He keeps smiling. It's annoying.

"Sir! Why are you in a good mood today?", my guy classmate from the back asked unknowingly.

"Ha?!", he replied back with an angry hoarse voice. We were very shocked. What happened to his good-mood appearance?

He cleared his throat. "It's none of your business.", he flushed. Or is it he blushed?

He took a leave and my classmates began whispering to each other. Ugh. Rumours will now spread after this. School life. Tsk tsk tsk.

"Hey hey. What do you think happened to our grumpy teacher?", BJ whispered to me. Geez BJ is starting to say something too.

"No idea. What do you is the reason why boys change?", I said and stood up. "Classmates, please settle down and be quiet. Our next teacher is coming."

The rest of the morning classes went by.

"Hey.isn't that your friend?", BJ pointed at Charmaine who is with her friends. I guess they've made up.

"Let's just leave them be.", I replied.

"LENNYYY!!!", Charmaine suddenly called onto me and came running as usual. She hugged me tightly.

"My friends and I made up. Sorry, I'm not going to eat with you this time.", Charmaine pouted. And noticed BJ.

"Oh. The popular BJ is here. I didn't notice you at first.", she said sarcastically.

"Oh. The exaggerated Charmaine is here. I didn't you notice you at first too.", BJ fired back. Why won't these two just get along?

"Okay. So we'll go now.", I interrupted their glaring contest. But they didn't move a muscle. I held BJ hand and said, "Let's go."

We walked together to our usual 'dining area' while holding his hand. As we arrived, I looked at BJ. He seems like in some sort of trance?

"what's wrong?", I asked.

"Your hand.", he answered sheepishly. I looked at our hands, still intertwined.

"Oh. Sorry. Do I make you feel uncomfortable?", I let go of his hand and sat down on a vacant table. He sat down beside me, smiling. Seriously, he's getting kinda creepy.
