I stared at the paper in my hand with both shock and hurt.

How could this happen. This is totally impossible. My parents would kill me! I didn't study like a robot the entire period all for a C- in most of my subjects. What the heck! I was pissed. If I had to do something then I had to do it now.

I thought of where I went wrong to end up in this situation as I was in my bedroom. It was just not adding up.

Only because you're forgetting the part where a greater part of your brain was focused on lover boy than on your books Libra.

"F*ck you" I said out loud to that voice in my head which I really wish would disappear right now.
Hate to admit she's right though.

If I wanted to make it, I needed to end things now. As if there's something even going on.

" Why are you so down lately Libra?" Dave asked as he came to sit beside me in Pisces' seat. Which was now our new way of chatting in school since he was always with his new friends at the Cafeteria.

I could've joined them at their table like the last time but I didn't want to appear.... Intrusive.
" I got a C- on the test we wrote recently." I said with a worried expression.
" Come on Lib. You're not the first person this has happened to. And luckily for you it's not even the final exams yet." He tried to comfort me.
" Didn't you hear what Ms. Lucy said. She said this test was to make us aware of how we would perform on the main test." I said.
" I know. I know. But don't get too drowned in all this. Just think of it as an awakening. And shun all distractions." He advised.
I slowly nodded.

Shun all the distractions Libra.

I wasn't leaving any stone unturned this time around.I even stopped reading my novel. Man I was making a huge sacrifice. I studied late into the night . 

I collapsed on my bed one night after I was done studying. I was really working myself out.
Ding. Ding

That was my phone. I picked it and sat on the bed. I sighed. It was the one and only person.

Unknown:  Hey Libra. Umm. ....You're so distant lately. What's wrong?


Libra: It's not that Pisces. I'm just focusing on my studies that's all.


Unknown:Yeah I know that's necessary but please don't push me away.


Libra: I've heard you Pisces.


Even though I told Pisces I'll not push him away, I had to keep my oath I made to myself.

"I thought you and Pisces were finally getting along. What's happening now?" That was Camille with a smirk on her face.
We were both at our seats in class.

It was recess. She already knew Pisces and I were into each other but didn't want to meddle in anyone's affairs.
Well now she is.

I told her my reasons. And she said that's fine but if we I was into him then I shouldn't let anything stop me and that we could date when school was over. Which I saw as a brilliant idea.

As we were still speaking, I was called to Lucifer's office. Which was very strange. I mean why would she call me? Well she was the principal which made a lot of sense.
