30. NOT JUST A SCREAMER

Elijah's POV

We were given a group assignment at school which I didn't mind. I might seem like I'm lazy and not serious with life but I actually enjoyed school.
Music was my passion and something I naturally excelled in even if my parents believed in studying something more practical like medicine or business.
I will leave all the serious stuff to my older brother. He can work hard and take over the family business while I live my life the way I want.
I had always been stubborn and headstrong, so they were never able to stop me from doing what I wanted.
I wasn't sure what I wanted to be but I always knew I loved music and I would see where it would take me.

I didn't mind working with Ethanael because we really got along. Also, I could safely say he wasn't after my man so we were totally good.
Tiffany on the other hand was starting to be a problem. One thing I hate, she is a control freak.
Sadly, our lecturer said that only one member could present the project meaning only one of us could perform it but she was determined that the person to do it in our group should be her. I tried to ignore her ramblings all day but I was starting to get sick and tired of her.

I was enjoying my dinner when she decided to start with me again.
"Eli, could you please take this project seriously," she started.
"Tiffany, stop acting like a freaking idol. This is a college project and as long as we get an A+, we are set," I said with a frown.
If I wasn't so hungry I would have thrown a dumpling in her mouth just to shut her up.
Yes. We were eating Chinese food. I may or may not have hinted to the queen that I was craving Chinese food.
Either way, she ordered that they cook Chinese food today and I'm so happy. Peanut was really making me crave everything but ice cream was the dominant need.
Which reminds me I will need to get some later before I go to bed.

"This is serious. Gosh, Elijah. Am I the only one passionate about this?" She said rolling her eyes and I imagined poking them out with a chop sticks. Gosh, she really annoying.
Couldn't she have waited until the King and Queen left the dinner table before blowing her horn? She is such an attention seeker, gosh.
At the rate in which she was going she would soon be at the top of my hate list right after Sienna.
Yes. I hate her now. She used to be my idol but now I didn't even want to see her anymore. I even changed my eyeliner brand to a new upcoming one which was provided from an online store.
I was skeptical at first but it's actually better and makes me look awesome. I already look great and the eyeliner is basically the icing on the cake.

"You act like I'm not putting in any work. All I'm saying is I will sing the damn song that we have worked on," I said in frustration.
"Elijah, everyone knows I'm the best in the class so it's only fair I perform the song. We will be the best that way," she said giving me a duh look like what I said is crazy.

"There's only one way to solve this." The King cut into our conversation.
"Why don't you both sing. And us, as the audience, will decide who is better and who will present your group project," Christian said with a smile.
"Oh, that's a great idea," Dion said excitedly. Ever since our conversation the Queen has become one of my favorite people.
Everyone agreed and so we all headed to the music room. I had been here before but the room just seemed more beautiful every time I entered it. That's how much I loved music.
Tiffany went first and everyone loved her voice. She was the best in class. It was true but you should know there is always someone better out there.
But now it was time for me to damage her pride. I don't want to do it this way but she asked for it.

As soon as I was done everyone was basically speechless. Yes. My awesomeness has that effect on people. Even Tiffany was shocked.
"Wow.." Marcus broke the silence and I basically got a standing ovation.
"I don't think we need to discuss this further. Elijah will be presenting your project," the King said and Tiffany reluctantly agreed.
Everyone else was happy, well except for one person of course.
Ever since Sienna kissed Marcus, I have noticed the heated glares she give me when no one is looking.
She doesn't hide her hatred for me anymore but only Ethanael and I see it. Everyone else still thinks she is perfect.

Just to spite her, I blew a kiss to Marcus that only she noticed and he winked in response.
I could see her struggling to keep her composure and I shared a knowing look with Ethanael who was struggling to not burst into laughter.
Marcus is mine and I'm not going to allow some fake bitxh to take him away from me. As long as she stayed in her lane we wouldn't have a problem but if she tries anything funny I'm going to kill the bitxh.
Calm down, Eli. The stress is not good for Peanut.

After a while, everyone said good night and headed to their rooms.
Marcus had left earlier on with his parents and I was a bit disappointed but I guess I would text him since I didn't get to be alone with him.
When I opened my room door I was met with the most amazing sight.
A shirtless Marcus and a table filled with goodies. This man really knew how to spoil me.
"I wasn't sure in what mood you would be, so I got a bit of everything," he said with a smile.
"Thank you. I love you," I said before kissing him.

I took a strawberry muffin and loved the way it melted in my mouth.
"Peanut is really going to make me fat," I said before taking another bite.
"Peanut?" He asked with a raised brow.
"Yes. Because our baby is still small and shaped like a peanut. I know it's silly and..."
"No. I like it," he said as he stood behind me and held my tummy.
"Our little Peanut", he said and I blushed. I loved it when he was acting like this.

I was still trying to get over the fact that I was pregnant and Marcus was just too perfect. He was truly my prince Charming.
"I had no idea you could sing like that. You have such an amazing voice. I literally had goosebumps when you sang earlier on," he said, still holding me as I finished my muffin.
"Well I'm not just a screamer, Valentine. There's so much more this mouth can do," I said.

"I know about all the...wonderful things that gorgeous mouth of yours can do," he said as he kissed me on the neck.
"I was about to take a shower. Would you like to join me?" He asked.
I pushed him back with my ass before walking to the bathroom door where I stripped everything off, leaving me naked.
With my back to him I turned my head to face him.
"Well, are you coming or not?" I asked and soon he carried me into the shower where we tested my vocal skills. I was so glad these rooms were sound proofed because I was definitely going to wake everyone up with the way I was screaming.
