I love Percabeth! I had to put their pic! Enjoy~
Arlen's POV
A week had gone, Elmery still wasn't talking to me. Not like I cared or anything, she was busy with her work. Right? Ya, she was just ignoring me because she was busy.
Look, I wasn't jealous or anything. Elmery could talk to any guy she wanted to, it's not like I care. I don't even like her!
The problem is the guy.
He's acting all nice isn't he? Doesn't bother to apologize to me, but he'll be nice and friendly to everybody else!
Elmery had every reason to be angry with me, it's all my fault. I should not have done that, I regret it. But I should have regretted it a long time ago because now...
See for yourself.

I entered the classroom to find Elmery sleeping, she always is actually. Normally I would wake her up and she would groan and say, "I don't want a...." But still would wake up and do her work. But now, all she did was flip her head to other side and nod off. My eye twitched, Selon came from behind me and shook Elmery, "Wake up sleeping beauty!" Give her two seconds, and there Elmery George was wide awake, ready to start her day by ignoring me.
I didn't care, she was ignoring me. Her problem! I am a very good person to talk to! I'm an awesome guy!
Maybe, I'm not.
English period begin, I heard something drop on the floor. I was about to pick it up when I realized whose it was. Ya, you guessed it!
"Dional, can you tell the person sitting in front of us to please pick up my pencil?" Elmery asked.
"Sure, Arlen can you please up the pencil of the girl sitting behind you?" Selon looked at him weirdly, "What? That's how she said it!"
I scoffed and pushed the pencil away from me, "I'd rather not," I continued to write my notes in silence.
Elmery's eye twitched, she got up from her seat and went to grab her pencil. When she came back, she glared at me and stuck the middle finger at me. I rolled my eyes, Selon whispered, "What's up with you and Elmery?"
"You don't need to know," I said.
"Did you do something?"
"What? Why am I the one who does something wrong?"
I looked behind to find Elmery with a raised eyebrow.
"On second thought..." I bit my lip, "It is my fault," I smirked.
"Why are you smiling for that? Shouldn't you be apologizing?" she stated.
"Well...my ego is too large, I don't wanna d-do it..." I stuttered.
Selon sighed and put her hand on my shoulder, I flinched. "You did something wrong Arlen, I'm sure Elmery won't taunt you. And if she did, I'd give her good beating. But she deserves an apology, you have to give it to her. Otherwise I'm going to give you a beating."
She's right, I have too. I won't be content if I don't, but I'm horrible at saying things I don't want to! Especially apologizing!
The bell rang for break, I started eating. Dional went to hang out with his friends, so I was left alone. Selon went to go chat with Elmery, so I decided to talk to them instead.
"Basketball tryouts are there today, are you coming?" Selon asked.
"No." Elmery answered immediately.
"Come on! Pleaseeee...???"
"No! I hate basketball! You already know that, don't force me to do something I don't want to do!"
"Uhh fine. At least come to watch?"
"No I have work to do," she said, Selon's shoulders slumped on hearing that, I felt bad for her. No wonder Elmery is not liked by anyone in this class. She's a total party pooper! Selon deserved better.
"I'll come."
"What?" They both looked at me.
"I'll come to see you play, I am your best friend, right?" I winked at her.
"Y-ya! You are! Sad Elmery can't come, she has work to do. Doesn't she?" Selon pouted.
Elmery growled, I didn't think she was capable for any other emotion except anger. I guess jealousy was one of them. Well it's close to anger isn't it? Stupid me!
"I'll come too! I just realized I don't have any work, I already did most of it at home," she said casually. Selon laughed, "Ok then, I'll ask Dional too!" She got up and went over to Dional and his friends.
Me and Elmery sat in silence, it was comfortable silence not awkward. I felt brave, ok I can do this I just have to say three words and then it will be done!
"Elmery, I need to tell you something,"
"What?" She asked rudely.
"I am so-"
That was when, we heard the screaming.
That's Arlen D'Silvia signing off!
Elmery will be waiting.
