Candyce x Ethan (Omegaverse + Fake relationship)

Alpha Awkwardness

The next day came around and I was feeling ready for another day. I couldn't act like the big mess I was yesterday because I had just embarrassed myself by letting my guard down and being all vulnerable. Something an alpha like me should never be doing. I couldn't let it happen again, so today I was going to ignore all the weird and snarky remarks my friends would make about me and Ethan, and act all high and mighty as usual. Because like I said, me and Ethan would NEVER work out. Never. I'm a big strong female alpha in my school and no one was going to change that.

I walked onto the school ground, smiling with lots of pride. I waved to some people and walked over to my friends who were sitting on some stairs. When I came into their view they all one by one started giggling until as a group they were laughing at me. Sure it made me a bit annoyed, but I wasn't going to be tipped over by them today.

"Hi guys. Now, what's so funny?" My voice layered with sarcasm.

"How was science class yesterday?" Now that surprised me. I never told anyone that I am now sitting next to Ethan in science. Maybe they were talking about something else? So I responded, confused.

"What do you mean?"

"You know, was it fun sitting next to Ethan?" I knew it. It was Ethan they were talking about! How did they find out I was sitting next to him? Who told them?

"How on earth did you find out that I sit next to him?" I questioned them

"Kayla told us. She's in your science class, you know." Ah, it was Kayla. God, I'm going to kill her! I said inside my head. But I needed to act calm.

"Well to answer your question, we didn't even talk." It was the truth. Other than when I told him to shut up. Seoyoon spoke up with her opinion.

"Lies! It has to be!" Seoyoon had a look of annoyance because she didn't believe me. Her ship wasn't working and it made her upset.

"Now, now, it isn't a lie. I asked him to shut up and he did. Although I do feel a bit bad for him."

"Oooh, you feel bad, huh? You didn't talk to him because you didn't want to keep up with the allegations, but you really did want to talk to him because you do like him. That's how it is, right?

"You're right about the first part, but I felt bad because I'm nice to my friends. Is it bad to be nice?"

They all just side-eyed me, but I couldn't care less. The bell for the start of school rang and I waved goodbye to my friends.

"That's the bell. Seeya at break," Some of the said goodbye back and I then ran off to go to my next class. Thankfully Ethan wasn't in this class. 

Some time had gone passed and it was now break one. I had gone to get my food from the canteen and walked back to the table, clutching onto the bag of food I had. Something sunk within me and it felt off, but I didn't want to feel vulnerable at all, even if I wasn't acting like it. I wanted this empty feeling within me to do away. Maybe I did want to talk to Ethan yesterday instead of just sitting in silence, but then again I felt like it was the right thing to do. I sat down at the table and could hear the hollows of laughter coming from my friends and I had to start to build up confidence within that empty space in me so I could stand up to my friends again today. I ignored my friends for awhile until Seoyoon came up with a plan. 

"Hey, hey. Lets bring Ethan over here!" I had argued back.

"No way! I swear, if you do that I will strangle you!" Nothing from me, the alpha, could scare my friends. They continued snickering and agreeing with Seoyoon. I was very angry but I calmed myself down. Jeez, These girls were going to be the death of me. I sighed and got up, picking up my bag and waving at the to walk around with me.

"Come on, let's just walk around. Not like we have anything better to do."

"Nah, we're fine. Go off and find your man, Ethan~" I rolled my eyes and just walked off. Sometimes friends can be the worst. I stormed off, the anger arising in me again. I wanted to scream and shout at them, but that would only lead more into their suspicions and my reaction would make them smile and giggle more than they already were. Anything I do would always lead to Ethan. It made me rage on the inside, but on the outside I had to seem like my normal strong and confident alpha self. I walked the halls now not thinking of much. The anger had finally disappeared and I had completely forgot about the situation with Ethan.

Walking around I came across a hoard of girl surrounding something. As I walked passed I got a better look at what they were looking at. It was Oliver. He was the alpha male of the school, matching me. He was tall and attractive, curly hair and a big smile that made all the girls fall for him. Everyone loved him and wanted to be with him. He'd practically dated most of the girls in our school and I really wanted to become one of them. Oliver was perfect for, matching together as alphas; it would be a dream come true. Although I had never actually talked to him properly before, but man I really wanted to. I wanted to be his girl. I was now full on daydreaming about him as I walked passed the crowd, not looking at where I was going.

Not looking where I was going, I found myself falling over from tripping on something and crashing onto the floor. Or someone... I looked down to the thing I had fallen on top of. It was a boy who looked very similar to Etha- wait a minute. It was Ethan!!!! I had fallen on top of Ethan and it looked very wrong.

"Owww..." He moaned out in pain. This position looked so wrong. It looked like I was pining him to the ground. I blush quickly in embarrassment. As he opened his eyes I quickly lost the flushed face and went back to a dark, neutral face.

"Ouch. Look where you're going next time, alright? Don't flaunt over a stupid boy like the rest," I quickly got up and started apologizing.

"Right, apologies. I should've looked at where I was going." I lent out a hand to help him up. He took my hand to get up and he could probably feel the sweat dripping from my hand. Oh my god, I'm so awkward, hurry up and get this interaction over with! As soon as he got up I let go of his hand. I really hope no one saw this I was going to tell my friends. Ever since the mention of Ethan and I being a 'cute couple', everything going on in my life included him. Why? It was so weird and I absolutely hated it. I then hear more snickering. But I didn't hear it coming behind me, which is what I expected. But the snickering came from behind Ethan. I look over his shoulder to see his friend Eric.

"Oh, what's this? Is this your girlfriend, Ethan?" Eric said in a teasing way. Ethan looked at him with a confused expression.

"What do you mean? She did it on accident,"

"Sure, sure..." Eric glared at me with a smirk and winked at me. Not another one shipping us together. Now both sides were shipping us and I could feel resent filling me up once more. I could no longer feel that emptiness in me, all I felt was the anger and irritation caused by the others around me, although I kept a calm face.

"Sorry again for falling on you, Ethan. See you around,"

"Bye, Candyce," Ethan replied back. I started walking off and as I walked passed them, I whispered to Eric.

"Fuck you!"
