Aria's POV
I really hope Cerion's not my groupmate. First of all, he's too narcissistic, and I cannot stand his attitude. Second of all, HE'S AURA! I hate his presence.
"The class will be divided into two groups of 14." Mr. Fletcher announced.
"For the first group, Thompson, Marione, Harley Andrews, Hewls, Adams, Packard, Crane, Ellis, Lee, Powell, Harries, Skye, Callary, and the rest will be in the second group." he continued.
"But, Sir, we're only 13. I thought the class would be divided into two groups of 14?" Cas raised her hand.
"Oh, yes, Ms. Marione, then Mr. Smith will be in the first group." he answered.
SMITH? As in the Cerion Smith? No, I don't want to work with him.
"Are you sure, Sir?" I asked; I really don't want to be in a group with him.
"Yes, Ms. Thompson, and I won't change my mind." he answered firmly.
I can feel that Cerion is looking at me.
"Can I be in the first group instead of Cerion, Sir?" James asked.
Pleaseee, let him, Mr. Fletcher, I don't want to work with Cerion, especially since it's a play!
"No." he said.
"Stop wishing, James." Cerion said just to annoy James.
I looked at Cerion; he's too annoying. I can see him smirking in an attempt to annoy me.
"I hope you're good at acting, Aria." Cerion said.
"Ask such a question to yourself, boy." I said.
Of course he's not aware, but I am one of the best actresses here at Elven High; not to brag, but I always act for the main role.
"Io said he's great at acting; how about you, Aria?" he said.
I stopped talking to him and focused on what Mr. Fletcher was saying.
"You are to make a play of your own but in a romantic genre. Remember, our last lesson was literature in the 19th century with romance as a genre. You can have a reference, such as from Romeo and Juliet. It depends on you, people." he announced.
There's no way he chose romance. Mr. Fletcher was the most aromantic person I've ever known. Even if we link him to Ms. Anderson, he doesn't care.
"You can now have your meeting with your groupmates." Mr. Fletcher continued.
We formed a circle so that we could have a proper meeting.
"So, since Mr. Fletcher did not assign a leader, who wants to volunteer?" Cas said.
"I suggest for Mile to be our leader; he's great at literature." Caitlyn suggested.
I do agree with Cait; he's really good at literature.
"Is it okay for you to lead, Mile?" I asked him.
"Yes, I think I can." he answered with a smile with him.
"Obviously we need lead characters, a couple perhaps." Mile suggested.
"But we don't have a couple in our group, Mile." Jax said.
"We can make one!" Cas suggested.
"Can the both of you act as a couple, Aria, Cerion?"
