Titania was awfully quiet after her introduction, as if the boastful introduction itself never occurred. Sting looked around at his male classmates, their jaws dropped to the ground, and some drool running down their bottom lips.
Rolling his eyes, he knew what this meant. It meant that every guy—well maybe besides him, would be vying for her attention, to be the lucky guy who'd be her boyfriend. Noticing her prim and perfect posture, he noted that perhaps she was very serious about school, and had no time for boys or dating. His classmates were still staring at her, so he looked up from his textbook, giving her a quick glance from across the room.
She seemed to notice Sting looking at her, causing Sting to sweat up in embarrassment and quickly turn away. Her eyes beams of lasers penetrating him, making him feel very agitated in his skin. Out of the many guys in the classroom, the only one she could pinpoint looking at her like a slobbery dog was Sting—and he wasn't even looking at her like that! Oh God, Sting hoped she didn't get confrontational in him after class, he'd die in a snap.
He found himself staring at the clock to avoid any possible eye contact exchange between her and noticed they were barely five minutes into class, how great, it felt like forever already. His fingers were trembling as he grips his pencil hard, writing down important key notes from the textbook, though he doubt that the textbook would be any help coming next test.
"Dude are you okay?" Harvey leans over his shoulder, noting that the blonde was turning ghostly pale. "Yea, Harvs. I guess I'm nervous..." He swallows the lump in his throat.
Harvey grins, looking up at Titania before lowering himself back down to speak softly to Sting. "Oh, I see~ it's all because of the new girl making googly eyes at you, right? She's been staring at you for a while now."
"Staring? More like glaring, I took a quick look at her to see if she noticed the stares of all the other guys, but she noticed me looking instead." Sting explains.
"You know, I was gonna call dibs, but you can have her, Captain." Harvey lightly slaps Sting's right shoulder, Sting rolling his eyes and going back to reading, soon after, Harvey does so as well.
Ah, Chemistry. Really easy. Titania taps the end of her pencil against the textbook a couple times before staring at her blank sheet of paper. She didn't really need the notes, she had already mastered everything there was about Chemistry, even doing lab sessions with her parents, or even Victor.
Just like with the school days, Victor was always excited and ready for any lab work Titania had to do that day. He always loved when chemicals reacted to each other and researching with her as well.
Titania could still feel the many hungering eyes on her, mostly male, a couple female—a sunny blonde haired girl and a Byzantium hair colored female. They were either jealous, or clearly into her as well.
It kind of made Titania want to laugh under her breath, none of these people genuinely knew her, or had even spoke to her once. Yet, they were all set and locked on being whatever Titania wanted them to be, which annoyed her. She didn't think she'd get this much attention—being the new girl and having bright scarlet hair, yes. But for her beauty? Titania guesses she forgot she even was beautiful. Her mother was known for having the beauty of a goddess, so perhaps that was hereditary?
