Slowburn (Roxy x Archie AU//Fan Fiction)

It's a Deal!

The second period ends and the Senior High students spill out of the classroom toward the cafeteria. In the locker area, Sanya and Kenjie are talking when Archie approaches them.

"Hey there!" Archie leans in behind Kenjie. "Interested in some tea?"

Both Sanya and Kenjie raise their eyebrows in confusion.

"Walang nangyare samin ni Roxy, I just drove her home because she's drunk." Archie said.

He waited for some reaction from Kenjie and Sanya, but they just blankly stared at him, still confused. 

"What are you waiting for? I post mo sa forum." He said as he taps Kenjie's head.

Kenjie was shaken up, he nodded and immediately pulled out his phone and typed.

"If you want to clear things pala, you should just post it sa forum yourself kaysa sinisindak mo si Kenjie." Sanya said.

"Me? ppfffft!" Archie smirked.

 "Di ko siya tinatakot and I don't need to clear things up, I know he's one of the main contributors sa forum so I'm just helping him with some additional information." He places his arms on Kenjie's shoulder. "Right Kenj?" 

"Yes, yes! I don't mind as long it's Archie. Hehehe." Kenjie chuckled. 

Sanya sighed, it still frustrates her that up until now Kenjie is still somehow a kiss ass when it comes to Archie and his group.

"Done Archie." Kenjie said as he put his phone back to his pocket. "It's funny na hinatid mo pa pala si Roxy, hehe kinikilig tuloy ako. May new ship na ba tayo?"

Archie frowned at Kenjie, he stared at him silently while his arms are still on his shoulder. Kenjie sensed Archie's death glare, he smiled awkwardly and moves to swiftly retract his arms from his shoulders.

Then a female student approaches them. "Hi Archie, pinapatawag ka ni Ms. Perino sa office niya."

"What for?" He ask the student in with a condescending tone.

The student just simply shrugged her shoulders, implying her cluelessness, Archie sighed, "Is this about Roxy's photos? If so, I can certainly clarify things for her ."  

Archie nodded and started walking away to Ms. Perino's office. He paused and turned to Kenjie and Sanya.

"Hoy! Make sure to post just the exact thing I mentioned kanina." Archie said pointing his index finger to Kenjie as a warning.

As he walked away, Kenjie immediately pulled out his phone again and started typing while chuckling. 

"What's that?" Sanya asked. 

"Well, I think Archie had a thing for Roxy. Nasesense ko na yun eh, you know I'm observant diba?" Kenjie laughs. "I'm just creating a poll to know how other students think."

"Alam mo, kakabroadcast mo ng intrusive thoughts mo. Di na ko magugulat one of these days, you'll get beaten up."

Kenjie stopped typing, he give himself a quick thought and immediately deletes what his typing on his phone.

"Okay fine, I'll keep this myself muna." Kenjie said as he put his phone back into his pocket, disappointed.

Alone at the cafeteria, Roxy sits with wrinkled eyebrows, her eyes are fixed on her phone as she chews on her ham sandwich. She's staring at the denim jacket posted on the official Off-White website; she checked the price again and swallowed her sandwich with difficulty.
