Homecoming was a few weeks away. Miguel and Damian have created a plan in which Damian will get to ask Mia to homecoming. Miguel would take Mia to class meanwhile Damian would leave a blue rose in Mia's locker with a message, signed by an anonymous admirer. During the day Damian and Miguel would whisper to each other, without Mia being able to listen to a word of what they were saying. "What are you two talking about?" Mia asked since curiosity have finally gotten to her, "Nothing... it's just that Miguel likes this girl in my biology class and I'm helping him out, right Mig?" Damian said looking at Miguel, "Yeah yeah he is helping me out with this girl" Miguel said looking very nervous, " Well you could have asked me to help you out as well, after all, I am a female" Mia said smiling at Miguel and Damian "GOT IT!, next time I will ask you for help" Miguel said. As the rest of the day went by, all that Damian could think about was Mia and the blue rose and the message on it. Maybe I can hurry after school and get the rose back, she will never know I took it. "Damian... MR.MARINA" at that time Damian snaps out of his thought and puts attention to his teacher calling on him "Yes Mrs.Miller", " Miguel, put attention! I have asked you if you have solved number 60 in the homework", looking back at him notebook Damian finds the problem and answers back to his teacher "Yes, the answer will be log1000=3", as everyone gases at Damian and back at the teacher everyone wonders how he has gotten that answer when the homework was only problems one through twenty-five, "That's correct, how have you achieved that answer if we haven't learned that yet", Mrs.Miller said looking back at Damian "I forgot we were only supost to do the first twenty-five questions and completed all the problems, using simple knowledge", Damian said (as same as Mia he was a very clever and very intelligent student, but he had decided to only take regulars clasees during his freshman year.) Right after last period, Damian rushed as fast as he was able to Mia's looker to get the rose back, but it was too late Mia was at her locker and was about to open the note attached to the rose, Meet me at the part at 5:00 pm sharp, and follow the path of blue petals, I will be holding a dozen of blue roses -Your Blue Rose Prince
As Mia read the note, she started to wonder who it was, as only a very close people knew she loved blue roses. Once she gazed up she saw Damian blushing looking at her, "Are you ok D?", "Uh? Oh yeah yeah I'm ok, I just ran from my class so I could walk you home" Damian said trying not to sound nervous, "Oh ok, let us go then" Mia said closing her locker and carefully placing the rose on a water bottle she had kept from lunch. On the way home, Mia couldn't stop thinking who "The Blue Rose Prince" was, as much as she tried she couldn't get an idea of who it could be and decided to just follow the note's order to see who the person who has left the blue rose was. Once she got home, she said bye to Damian and started getting ready to go to the park. Even if there is a possibility of it being a prank, I can still try to look nice... for The Blue Rose Prince
