Royal Blood

Ten : New Feelings?

"CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS WOMAN!? Who does she think she is? Little Miss Perfect?! She better looks at herself at the mirror first before saying anything that is not true!" exclaim Rayna.

Curious and shocked as to what made Rayna mad, Lily enters the classroom and asked Miko if she knew anything or what just happened before she arrives.

"Well Lily, as you can see Rayna here is mad because one of our juniors are going around bragging about how she and Eric had a date last night and that thanks to her, Eric will be in the basketball game that will be held today in the afternoon. But that is not the only thing, to make it even worst or awkward, she will be there to support him all the way." replied Miko.

"Oo...okay...but that still doesn't make Rayna this mad at her, right?" asked Lily.

"Nope." Said Faith.

"what really made her this mad is because this junior of ours told the entire school that Eric and she had sex last night and that he belongs to her only. Nobody allows to take him away from her or even flirt at him." Added Faith.

"And has Eric said anything about this?" asked Lily.

"Well, it seems that Mr Famous is nowhere to be seen or heard since this morning, so everyone is assuming that he has not arrive or just avoiding the fame. Either way, some of us does not wish to believe." Replied Faith.

Just as Faith ended her sentence, the school bell rings indicating that it was time for class and everyone quickly made their way back to their seats, including Rayna and Luna.

Lile was not sure if any of this is true as Eric did spend the night with her family last night along with Nina and Jun before he had to rushed back home in the middle of the night.

Lessons runs as usual and everyone became silent, focusing in all the lessons as a quiz was coming up next week. Soon the lunch bell rings and everyone slowly made their way out of class, when they heard someone shouted out loud from the junior floor.

Curious as to who was it, the seniors made their way downstairs including Lily and her friend. When they arrived, a crowd could be seen, and two people were in the middle of the crowd.

Slowly, Lily pushed her way through to get a closer look when she saw Eric standing in front of a female student.

"What do you mean that we had nothing going on between us? Did you..."

"Look, I only saved you from those jocks as they were about to do something to you and I felt that you might not like it but seeing and hearing that you made such a foolish rumours about us, I kind of regret saving you." explain Eric.

"I know, but you said that I reminded you of someone special in your heart, so I thought that we might had a connection." Said the junior.

"Well, I did say that, but that does not mean that we had any form of connection and besides this special person had already made my life hard as she doesn't seem to know that my hearts belong to her and that it is hers to keep." Said Eric.

"But I thought..."

"Look, you and I have nothing going on and will never have any connection. So, get the foolish mind of yours out of the clouds and stop daydreaming of us together as I will never fall for someone like you. Also, thanks to you, my special girl has now seen my bad side."

After saying all that, Eric made his way out of the crowd and head to the sports hall for the game.

Soon everyone slowly left the area and made their way to the canteen while commenting about what had happened and about the rumours turning to be false.

"Come on, Lily. Let's get going, the food won't wait for us." said Luna and pulls Lily along with her to the canteen, passing by the shocked junior.

"I hope you learnt your lessons because it was kind of foolish of you to make those silly rumours of you and him being together." Said Rayna to the junior.

"Enough, Rayna...let's get going." said Faith.

In the canteen, everyone was talking about the fight and making comments about the junior as well as who is Eric's special girl. Soon the entire canteen was fill with noises.

"so, what do you guys think about just now? When Eric told her that they had nothing going on and that he already has someone special in his heart?" asked Luna while queuing in the line to get their food at the counter.

"Well, my opinion I won't blame Eric for being sarcastic to her as it was her fault for making up such a rumour and I am not sure who is this lucky girl is but from the way he describes her, it sounds like he knew her for quite a long time." commented Miko.

Thinkign about the argument that happen as well as who is the lucky girl in his life, Faith suddenly exclaimed loudly that made the others shook in shock.

"Maybe, just maybe I know who she is and why he was pissed off at the junior." Said Faith.

"Who?" the others asked in curiosity.

"Miko, you said that it sounds like he knew her for a long time, right? Well what if this lucky girl happens to be in the same school as him and that it has been a while since he last saw her?" asked Faith.

"What do mean, Faith? Are you saying that Eric and this girl used to be close friends but were separated for some reason and then meet again this year also happens to be in the same school?" asked Rayna.

Faith nods her head and moves forwards to the counter.

"If that is true, who might this girl be that you are thinking of?" asked Luna.

Faith then points her finger to Lily and raise her eyebrows.

"Me? What make you think of me?" exclaim Lily in shock.

"Of course, why didn't I think about it? Don't you recalled, the first day of school when he arrived, didn't he kept on staring at you and even tried to talk to you while secretly teasing you?" asked Luna.

"So, what are you trying to say is that, I and Eric used to be close then something happened between us that we parted, and now we meet again. But I don't recall being close with him?" said Lily

"Maybe? Then how do you explain the way he looks at you and whenever he looks at you, you will then to blushed." Said Faith.

"Faith is right, the way he looks at you is like you are his prey, waiting to be eaten and also it seems that he was expecting something from you." agreed Luna.

"Not forgetting that he would always ask your opinion first before making any decision. So, that would mean that your opinion is important to him and him like hearing your voice, especially when you are blushing." Added Miko.

Hearing her friends' comments, Lily could not help but wonder if it is true...if it is, then it meant that Lily dies have some connection with him, aside being in-laws but maybe, just maybe...she might be...

"I see someone is blushing!" said Faith.

"Oh my, Lily seriously? are you serious? That means that you and Eric are..."
