Black Section

Chapter 16

Lunox’s Point of View

“How shameless! How irredeemable! As the former president, I thought you have values and morals, Gusion. I’m disappointed," said the student council president. Gusion keeps on shooting glares at me. I smiled at him. He’s absolutely mad that I kissed him earlier. That’s the only possible action I could take so that they won’t found out what we exactly did there. “And you!” She pointed her fingers at me. I smiled at and answered, “yes?”

“Don’t give me that look! It won’t work on me. You’re just a transferee and you already caused trouble. School isn’t a place to flirt. School is a place to study and learned new things," she said and posed. “She’s stupid,” I murmured. “She sure is,” even Gusion agreed.

“Why are you giving me that look? I’m serious!” She exclaimed. I rolled my eyes. “Why are we here in the first place? Will we get punish?” I asked. She looked at me. “About that…” She doesn’t know. “How long will you keep us here? Time is gold, Miss President. I can’t wait like this. Would you expect me to listen to all of your lecture? Don’t act like you haven’t did that before,” I said. Her face is red. She’s about to explode. Gusion stepped on my foot. “Aww! What was that for?” I asked him. He touched my head and forced me to bow. “In my behalf, I apologized for her actions. She’s still new here,” said Gusion. I felt Gusion elbowed me. I rolled my eyes. “Sorry, my bad,” I apologized in a monotone.

The door suddenly opened. I saw Leomord entered. “Miss Aaliyah, I sincerely apologized for their actions. I’ll teach them a lesson. A student of Black Section shouldn’t act this way,” said Leomord then looked at me. He’s blaming me for what happened. “I’ll let this slide. No more second chances. I hope they reflect on their actions. It was irredeemable!” She said and left the room. The three of us remained. What an awkward atmosphere. “I won’t question you two. All I know you have a reason. I checked the building where they caught you and I saw hidden ropes and bullets,” he said. He’s truly the president of Black Section. He figured it out.

I raised both of my hands. “I surrender. You caught us. Something happened in that building. Don’t worry it isn’t related to our section. Ask Gusion. I just went along with him- Aw! Why do you keep on stepping my foot?!” I said. Leomord looked at Gusion waiting for an answer. “You won’t explain the situation you’re in, am I right?” asked Leomord. “I can’t tell you. Your focus must be Black Section, protect it.” Gusion said. "We're rivals but I'm your friend too. If you need some help you can count on me," said Leomord.

"I don't need your help. I can manage myself," replied Gusion. And yet, he agreed to be my ally. You lied to him because you care for him. You don't want him to get in trouble because of you. You’ll regret for the rest of your life if anything happens to him. Rivals but also friends. A complicated relationship indeed. "Don't interfere, Leo. Lunox told me that you want her to lose the match on purpose. You know that when it comes to fights, I go all out. I don't want my opponent to pity me. Leo, do you not trust me? Perhaps, you're underestimating me. Not because you've become the Black Section's president, you can give me a special treatment. Treat all students equal. No biases, no friends," said Gusion.

Leomord scratched his head. "I'm just worried about you, jackas$." He said. Gusion chuckled. "I'm not into men, fvcker," replied Gusion. The two of them fist bump. Gusion puts his arm across Leomord's shoulder and rap his head. "This pretending sh¡t irritates me," said Gusion. "You're complaining now? It's your own idea that we'll pretend we're strangers," said Leomord. Pretend that they're strangers? I know their relationship now. I understand why they needed to hide it. The reputation of Black Section will be affected if they knew.

"You can do what you want to do. Cherish your moments with each other. I know you missed each other. Don't mind me. Just don't smooch in front of me," I said. They stopped what they're doing and looked at me.

"Hey, Lunox..." called Leomord.

"Did you think we're in a relationship?" added Gusion.

"Yes! A romantic relationship, isn't it?" I said.

Gusion went near me and strike me on the nape. "Aww! That hurts! You keep on hurting me. Stop abusing me," I said. "We're fvcking friends. I don't know what goes in your mind but we're only friends. We don't have a romantic relationship with each other. I'm not into men, as I said a while ago. I like women," Gusion held my chin. "Did you think I forget what you did to me earlier, huh? Lunox?" He whispered to my ear. My body's telling me that I needed to stay away from this man. I pushed him and went to Leomord's back.

"Stop teasing her, Gus." Leomord said.

"Yeah! Stop teasing me, Gus." I repeated and stick out my tongue.

"She started it! She liked to tease me every time, why can't I tease her back? It's unfair, Leo. I thought we're friends. Move aside." Gusion stated. I held Leomord's shirt. "Don't you dare follow him, Leo," threatening him.

"You're the man. Just let it slide," said Leomord. Gusion tried to approach me but Leomord's body blocked him from getting near to me.

"Move, Leo!" Gusion commanded. "You can't, Gus. She's just teasing you." Leomord said. I flipped my hair. "Sorry, Gus. It looked like Leo's at my side. Better luck next time," I said and stick out my tongue once more. Gusion glared at me. I annoyed him again! I laughed.

So, this is the true self of Gusion and Leomord. They're like everyone else. What I saw today are two friends who are having fun, enjoys each other's company, talking and spending their time together like normal high school students would do.
