Meanwhile, in the room next to where Cosette and Luke were… Amie was sitting among the young delinquents drinking drinks they shouldn't while singing and partying. "You haven't touched your drink." She snapped her eyes when the guy sitting beside her spoke, making her raise her head to him. "Is there something wrong, babe?" Amie pressed her lips into a thin line and shook her head. "Nothing. I'm just thinking of school." "Huh? What about it?" "Well…" She scratched the back of her ears, shrugging.…-

"I can't hear a word." Cosette pressed her ear against the wall, but alas, it was stupid. "Gosh… this is unlike those in the movies." While she was mumbling and complaining about not hearing a word, Luke had his arms crossed while sitting leisurely. They managed to get in thanks to Luke's sweet tongue and Cosette's money, but the moment they got in, they felt like they were back to scratch. Fortunately, he sighted one of the people he remembered meeting Amie. Thus, they got a room just next to Amie's…

Luke had a feeling he would regret giving in to Cosette, knowing this girl always had the cruelest ideas. Even after repeatedly reminding her to not get in trouble, it slipped his mind that he should've reminded her not to resort to any crazy idea. He only remembered when Cosette dragged him to the nearest boutique to get changed, making them appear older with their attire and her heavy makeup. Since Luke had a tall stature, wearing anything aside from his uniform was enough to make him look like a…

As usual, the day went by for Cosette just like that. However, it wasn't like any other day that had gone by like the previous months. Today, the whispering of her classmates regarding Amie's drastic change was inevitable, but Amie couldn't care less. It was not only Amie's appearance that changed but also her attitude. As a friend, Cosette and Sarah were concerned. Fay didn't give any strong reactions, although deep down, both Cosette and Sarah knew Fay was simply disappointed. Months ago, they wanted…

"Holy F…" Luke awed, staring at Amie, who just entered their classroom, wide-eyed. Not just him, but everyone in class F stared at Amie with surprise. Amie was dragging her feet to her seat, combing her hair with her fingers as she dropped her things on the side of the desk. When she noticed the eyes on her, Amie cocked her head and arched a brow. "What?" she asked. "Anyone has a problem with me?" Her query made others clear their throat as they looked away, a bit intimidated by her. Meanwhile, Luke…

Months had gone by in a blink of an eye for Cosette. Her daily life revolved around school, bickering with Luke, hanging out with Sarah and Fay, and then Maxen. On the days they didn't have classes, she would spend them with Conrad or her grandparents, as they were in the city constantly to visit her. Marcel and Gretchen were extra lenient to Cosette, and because of her, they gave Maxen a chance to prove to them why they should like him. With Maxen's personality, he quickly captured the elder's hearts.…

"Bothered?" "Gosh…" Cosette assessed Luke's charming, nonchalant face and clicked her tongue. She looked away from him and shook her head, cupping her face again. "There's something wrong, isn't it?" "Mhm." Luke rocked his head as his eyes glossed over the classroom again. "Everyone is just so serious. Is it because of the upcoming periodical test?" "You should study." "Nah. I'll use stock knowledge. I'm pretty smart already." Cosette rolled her eyes but didn't dwell on his shameless remarks.…

Maxen had been strange throughout the rest of the weekend. Cosette couldn't point it out exactly, but she could feel something was up. "Oy." Cosette flinched when Luke suddenly snapped his finger in front of her. She turned her head to him, raising a brow. "Cozie, are you really that ruthless?" he asked out of nowhere, leaning against his desk with his arms folded on top of it. "What will you do if Maxen melts in your salacious gazes?" Her expression died, reminding herself she just visited the temple…

Maxen opened his eyes, only to meet Cosette's beautiful face. He glanced at the clock on the desk behind her, seeing it was just around four in the morning. It was early, so Maxen relaxed his body on her side. 'I don't think I will ever get enough of this sight every time I wake up.' Maxen brushed off a few strands of hair from her face carefully, smiling subtly. Ever since Cosette started sneaking into his room, Maxen's morning had been great. Seeing her first thing he opened his eyes already set his…

Maynard excused himself to go back to his room, as he had drunk a few shots before asking Asher to drink with him. He swayed at each step back to his room, and when he reached his destination, Maynard didn't enter. Instead, he leaned his side against the jamb of the door. "Hah… why am I acting like this now?" he murmured, dragging his feet inside. But Maynard didn't go straight to bed. He went straight to the bookshelf, raising a hand to take out the book he would usually pick each time for whatever…
