The day was crazy. My table and Glenn's were connected and placed at the first row of the class. A slight action from Glenn towards me would cause the class to cheer for a full minute. Ms Rain would squeal when I lent him my pen to write a word. I have to partially blame Glenn for smiling sweetly at me.

Glenn POV

I am dying of happiness and I can't express it out fully. I can squeeze the life out of her if I can hug her, in a nice way, not a deadly one. I hope Harley did not force herself to make this decision. From the looks of things, she seemed to be enjoying herself.

The blush on her cheeks whenever the class cheered. The shy look she had when I touched her hair. It was as if she is the one having a crush on me instead.

I smiled to her and asked, "Lunch time?" I pinched her cheeks, she pouted. A couple of girly squeals was heard behind me.

"Can we ask Zen along? It is time to explain it to him and I need you to be with me. I can't do it alone." Her eyes were pleading me.

I was quite uncomfortable from the thought of it. But if it is what she wanted, it is something I have to respect. "Sure. I don't want a misunderstand between Zen and I too."

She smiled at me and walked to where Zen is. I cannot tell if he was willing to listen to her or not but he followed eventually.

We walked to the cafeteria together but I encouraged Harley to walk with Zen ahead of me. They need some private time to clear some tension before I join in.

Out of nowhere, Wendy grabbed my arm and threw herself to me. Her chest was rubbing against my arm, intentionally. "Is it true that you're engaged to Harley?" She batted her eyelashes at me.

I looked at her in disgust as she continued leaning against me. I swept her off my arm, replying, "Yes, I am, and I do mind when you keep rubbing yourself on me. I'm not comfortable with it. At all."

She grabbed on to me again, tighter this time. "I called that bitch and told her I wanted you. The next day I received this news. She's even close to Zen. Why does she always get the things I want?" Her voice was threatening, her stare carving into mine.

She pulled me by the neck and smashed her lips on mine. Coincidentally, Harley turned back. "Glenn-"

I looked up to see her confused expression. I pushed Wendy away immediately, hard enough for her to stop the grabbing of my arm and light enough to keep my promise with Harley, to not hurt Wendy. Eric caught Wendy in time and held the struggling maniac from coming close to me. She laughed when Harley looked disappointed.

"It is not what it seemed." I was choked on words for the first time. I was afraid of what she might think of me. I only loved her.

She just smiled and turned her back on me, pulling Zen with her, walking away. Zen gave me the look of disgust. I felt like a loser.

Having built up anger in me, I turned to Wendy as Eric was still holding her.

"Watch it. One more chance is all I can give you. And I'm only doing this for Harley."

She grinned. "My goal is to break couples up and I am willing to do anything for that, even if she was a good friend of mine."

"Eric, take her away from my sight."

"I will be back my love!" She laughed as she was dragged away.

I can't believe I would have such drama in my life. Now I need to hope Harley trusts me.

Eric came back running towards me. "Glenn! There are reporters camping outside the canteen. You need to get Miss Harley out of there before they start writing articles about her and Zen. This will impact not only you but your family business as well. Hurry up!"

"I understand." I ran towards the canteen with Eric behind me.

Ugh, so troublesome. Can't they just let us have some peace? Just this once in my life would be good enough.

I reached the canteen to see Zen running his hand through his hair and Harley looking concerned towards him.

Whatever the problem was, I apologised to Zen and pulled Harley away as soon as possible.
