"You know there's no need to ignore me, we've kissed enough times to be a couple already" Ezekiel leaned towards Mallory to whisper.
"I'm not ignoring you I just have to get my work done" Mallory answered. "Are you really number one in our class?" He raised his brow with a grin.
"Search it up" Mallory smiled. "Well it won't be for to long" he shrugged. "Says who?"
Ezekiel smiled and pointed to himself. "Let's have lunch together" he said. "I can't" Mallory responded. "And why is that?"
"I always have lunch with my sister and our friends. Part of my routine as you like to call it" Mallory smiled. "Do you and him still get along?" Ezekiel asked.
"Who Dimitri?" Mallory smirked. "Yeah"
"Are you jealous?" Mallory asked. "No" Ezekiel shook his head and said it with confidence. "We don't really get along anymore, we sit in the same table but barely even speak. Besides he's dating our classmate Monica" Mallory said.
"The girl he took to the ball?"
"Yeah" Mallory nodded. "Her parents enrolled her here so people from their circle could see she didn't go to just any private school" Mallory shrugged.
"Why did your parents enroll you here?" Ezekiel asked. "My grandfather attended this school and so did my father so now my sister and I are attending too" Mallory said. "Why are you attending this school?"she added.
Ezekiel looked at her and smiled, "it seemed like a really great school"

Mallory sat besides Bellami and Jason. Jason was showing Mallory pictures of his parents home in Washington that they had just purchased. She was to busy having a conversation with Jason that she didn't hear when Dimitri called Liam a 'fucking idiot' when he walked by them with Devin and Ezekiel. There was still a grudge being held by Dimitris side since they got in a fight at the ball.
"I'd like to hear you say it when you're not with your friends" Liam stopped to look at Dimitri. Dimitri got up and walked towards Liam who didn't back out. They looked at each other making Jason and Scott quickly get up to either fight or separate them. Mallory looked at Ezekiel who was waiting for Dimitri to make a move. When he saw everyone around looking he looked at Mallory.
"That's enough" Ezekiel stepped between Liam and Dimitri pushing Liam away. Dimitri looked at Ezekiel with a serious face but didn't say anything. Dimitri knew he didn't like Ezekiel even when he didn't know there was something happening between him and Mallory.
"You know where to find me" Liam said to Dimitri as he stuck his middle finger out. Ezekiel turned and slightly smiled at Mallory who smiled back but quickly set her face serious so nobody would notice but Dimitri and Bellami saw. Bellami rolled her eyes and Dimitri went from looking at Mallory to looking at Ezekiel. His eyes were burning through him.
"You're fucking stupid trying to start a fight here" Scott said to Dimitri. "The day you get into help me fight say something other than that shut the fuck up" Dimitri said.
"He's right" Mallory said making Dimitri turn because he thought she agreed with him. "See" Dimitri said to Scott.
"Scott's right, aren't you old enough to be acting immature. I mean seriously picking fights is so childish" Mallory said as she got up from the table.
"Where are you going?" Bellami asked. "Somewhere that's not here" Mallory said as she began walking away. "I'll go with you" Cynthia said.
"I'd rather be alone" Mallory said and continued walking.
