SHORT STORY

                                                                                        OUR    WEDDING  DAY

There was a beautiful girl named Scarlet Riley. She was a transferee student at Ferris University. When she transferred to that school, there are many students who were interested in her, but none of them caught her attention because she believes that all boys are the same. Because of that, many boys were harassing her because they were all busted.

One day Scarlet left alone in their classroom because she's doing her assignment. While walking alone in school to go home, there was someone following her, and she noticed it that's why she runs fast.

When she turns back, someone covered her eyes, and she thought she was caught by one of her suitors but then she was wrong. It was a boy named Dreck, also one of the transferee students. But she was horrified because she thought Dreck was one of those crazy suitors of hers because Dreck was known at school who are troublemakers. He was always involved with those gang fights. She was about to scream for help. But then Dreck stopped her and explained that he is not planning to harm and hurt her. After that incident, they become close enough since both of them are transferees. In everything they'd do such as skipping classes and goes hangouts on their favorite places, they were partners. They enjoyed both companies. They also became best buddies. When the time when Scarlet needs Dreck, he is always there for her trying to comfort her all the time.

One day, as Scarlet was passing in the hallway, she heard a loud thud, and because of her curiosity, she went to the storage room where she thinks the sound came. When she peeped to the door's hole, she saw some bunch of girls bullying an innocent girl. She ran away to ask for help, and while she was running, she bumped accidentally Dreck who was confused by Scarlet actions and asked Scarlet what's happening to her and Scarlet replied:

"Let's help her."

After that, they came back to the storage room where Scarlet found the girl. When they arrived, Dreck immediately kicks the door and save that girl. While Dreck was trying to fight to the bullies, the girl was being loved at first sight to Dreck.

When the bullies were gone, Dreck was comforting the girl, and out of curiosity she asked the girl's name, and it was Ariella Lavieste.

Because of that day, they became close with Dreck and Scarlet, and they hang out together. As they always bond together the feelings of Ariella towards Dreck grow and grow day by day. One day Ariella asked Scarlet what their relationship with Dreck and Scarlet replied that they don't have any romantic relationship.

And because of that Ariella was so happy because she thought that she didn't have a chance to Dreck. And Ariella asks again to Scarlet.

"Can you help me pursue Dreck?"

"You don't have any feelings for him, right?

And Scarlet immediately replied, "Ye-yes of course, why wouldn't I?"

On that day onward when Dreck tried to hang out with Scarlet, she was trying to avoid Dreck and push him away. Because of that day, Ariella and Dreck became close, and Scarlet was left behind. Scarlet thought that Dreck was forgotten about her until the time when Dreck can't resist the urge not to talk with Scarlet, they elope, skip the class and hang out once again.

At first, Scarlet refused but she gets along and didn't worry about anything even she knew that Ariella might be confused and jealous because of their actions. While they are hanging out and having fun they unintentionally met Ariella, on the other hand, Ariella was a bit jealous because she thought that they don't have any relationship towards Dreck, but her actions say differently.
