“OMG! You mean Dan did this to you!?” Jennie asked Jacq, horrified.
They were seated in class the next day and Jacq’s face was full of ugly bruises.
“Yeah” He sigh, still feeling pains.
“Couldn’t you fight back!?” Jennie asked, pissed at Dan for hitting Jacq and also pissed at Jacq for not fighting back.
“I tried to, didn’t know where he got the strength from . . ” Jacq trailed off, embarrassed to have been badly beaten by his mate and the look Jennie was giving him wasn’t helping matters.

“I also hit him, though a few times but they were hard hits. His cheek and lower lip bled before he left my place” Jacq said and was glad Jennie looked a bit pleased.
“Still . . That can’t be compared to what he did to you! You look like you were hit by a truck for goddamn sake!” Jennie scowled and Jacq almost melted in embarrassment.
Everyone was even looking in his direction, probably wondering why his face looks so battered.

“I’m so going to deal with him! Who the hell fights someone for breaking up with their friend! That’s so irrational” Jennie spat angrily.
“He said he was fine with me breaking up with her because I’m an asshole, he was only pained I could date someone else while dating Fel. He claimed I had no respect for her and that she deserves better”
“That’s not it!” Jennie said with a small smile. “He’s so pained I’m the one you’re dating, he still loves me and I could clearly remember telling him to stop whatever feeling he still has for me!”

“He’s not even aware you’re the girl I’m dating!” Jacq cleared and Jennie’s face fell.
“You mean he doesn’t know I’m the one? And he fought you this much, like…he battered your face this much?”
“Yeah, he fought me for Fel’s sake not yours or anyone’s, Fel hadn’t told him it was you and he clearly said he doesn’t give a damn about whomever I’m going out with, He was just there to fight me for hurting his best friend”
“Oh” Jennie said, disappointed Dan hadn’t fought Jacq because of her but for Fel.

“And what did your parents said to your face?” She asked Jacq.
“They’re still on their business trips and won’t be back in weeks. The housekeeper had helped me nurse the bruises” Jacq said.
“Little wonder it’s looking so terrible, you should have gone to a doctor” She said, touching one of the bruise lightly. He winced.
“Your face must be in so much pain, sorry” She gave a small shrug.
“I’ll be going to the doctor today, Mrs Smith just gave me first aid treatment and it really helped” Jacq said.

Jennie twitched her nose and almost rolled her eyes. She dislikes Mrs Smith so much because the woman obviously preferred Fel to her and she doesn’t even hide the fact!
She asks for Fel almost all the time even when she could clearly tell Jacq and Jen were now together.

“I know you don’t like her” Jacq said.
“Of course I don’t” Jennie rolled her eyes. “She gives me this stupid look every freaking time”
“But you know I can’t fire her without my parents consent” Jacq said, knowing where Jennie was going.
She had told him to fire Mrs Smith severally, it was clear they don’t like each other.
Mrs Smith prefers Fel and she makes it so obvious much to Jennie’s chagrin.
But he had grown up to know Mrs Smith, she took care of him more than his parents had, he could count the number of times he had seen his parents in his lifetime . . Yeah, they were mostly never home and even the few times they are home, they work nonstop not even giving room for parents and son relationship.

And yeah . . Obviously,his parents were damn wealthy.

Mrs Smith had given him the love and attention his parents denied him and he would never fire her for anything, not even Jennie whom he loves so much.

He has always been attracted to her beauty but Dan had beat him to it by getting to date her first and he was the happiest when he learnt Jennie broke up with Dan and Dan was even getting transferred to another school.
He approached Jennie almost immediately Dan left and shortly,they started dating.
He liked Fel so much too but Jennie’s charm had been irresistible.

“Whatever, I know you won’t fire her anyway” Jennie scoff and Jacq smiled, a smile which stopped halfway because his lips were hurting.
“C’mon” He hugged her closely and Rylan rolled his eyes from where he was watching them.

“Shameless teens” He muttered to himself, looking irritated.
He was so glad Dan disfigured Jacq’s face but he was somehow scared on what Dan is gonna do after finding out Jennie is the anonymous girl.
He had been so surprised when he learned everything from Fel yesterday and seeing how Jacq looked this morning didn’t surprise him a bit .
And he doesn’t even feel sorry for him. He should get more beatings for breaking Fel’s heart.
Motherfucking squirrel!

Fel had looked so terrible yesterday and he knew what he went through forcing her to clean up and eat!
It had been a difficult task but he had succeeded at it anyway, he made sure she fell asleep before leaving her house yesterday.

A smile lit up his face when he saw Fel walk into the class, not even looking a bit of what she had looked yesterday.
She look her normal beautiful happy self and she had walked past Jacq with a smirk that says ‘serves you right’
Yasss! This is the fucking Fel he had chosen as his best friend.

She was greeting her friends and answering why she had been absent yesterday while Rylan waited patiently for her to get to her seat which was beside his.
He could see Jennie looking at her scornfully and he almost laughed. She got Jacq already, what’s she pained for.

“Buddy” Fel said on getting to her seat.
Their palms collided before she took her seat.

“How are you feeling now?” He ask.
“Better . . than yesterday” She said and he knew the smile she had put on when she walked in had been a facade.
She’s still so unhappy, it was clear in her voice and written on her face now that she’s with him.
“You’ll be fine. He’s not worth it though to be honest, he’s not worth your unhappiness. He’s not hiding anything with Jennie now, as you can see . . ” Rylan said, pointing to them with his jaw.
Fel nodded with a sad smile.

“Dan did a badass job on his face though” She laughed, seeing Jacq’s face that way hadn’t surprised her, when Dan left her house yesterday,she knew what to expect when she get to school today.
She won’t lie it made her feel better though.

When Jacq broke up with her and told her he had been with another person even while they had been in a relationship, she had wanted to hit him non-stop but she had had no ounce of strength in her. And then Dan had done it for her, she couldn’t be more glad.

“A really badass job” Rylan laughed too.
“I’ll get over it, over him soon” Fel said determinedly.
“I know you’re no weak girl” Rylan winked.

“It’s actually surprising to see Jacq and Jennie together, I’m still wondering how Dan would feel about it” Rylan sigh.
“At least she was thoughtful enough to have broken up with Dan before getting into another relationship, she respected him enough to do that” Fel said.
“You’re right” Rylan said. “Well . . We all should live our lives the way we want” He added.

“Yeah but using that phrase to justify hurting someone is not fair. We should live our lives the way we want but not at the expense of other’s pain. That’s a nonsensical behavior”
“Oh yeah, you’re right” Rylan nodded and smiled.

“Come here” He hugged her to his chest, seeing her gaze was starting to trail to Jacq and Jennie’s direction.
She sigh as she rested her head on his chest.
“Uhm, you hair is smelling so nice” He sniffed the rose flavored shampoo Fel had used on her hair this morning, the lovely smell still lingered.
She smiled. “You like it?”
“I love it” He said, kissing her hair.

“Where’s Dan?” Were the first words Layla muttered on opening the car door.
“He’ll join us at school, he’s quite busy and doesn’t want us to run late” Anne said.
Dan was getting his bruises treated by the doctor because he hadn’t allowed anyone see his face until this morning, and Anne was so sure he would have avoided being seen this morning also if he could. But Dan wasn’t the person to wear a bandana over his face to breakfast, revealing his eyes alone, so they had all known something was wrong and their dad had asked him to pull the bandana away which he had done reluctantly.

They were alarmed to see his lower lip bruised and the upper part of his cheek,close to his eyes wounded, it seemed like a deep wound and Anne had started crying before his parents could ask what happened to him.
“Hey, it’s nothing serious” He had said, consoling her and then narrated what had happened.
His mum said nothing, knowing how Dan go out of his way for his friends and they do the same for him also. Her Dad had called their doctor after telling Dan that was no wise thing to do.

“Oh and pardon my manners, good morning to you” Layla smiled, getting in.
“Good morning Layla” Anne smiled back at her.
“Hi Paul” Layla greeted.
“Morning Layla” Paul said, turning on the ignition.

The car started moving…

“And look at you with another beautiful hairpin” Anne said admiringly and Layla smiled.
She had been so surprised to see Philia get more beautiful hairpins for her and of course she had accepted it happily much to Philia’s delight.
“Philia got more for me and here .. ” Layla said, bringing out the two hairpins she had kept for Anne, she kept two for Fel also and she had plan to ask Dan to give it to her.

“Have these, it’s yours” Layla stretched it to Anne.
“Oh my . . These are beautiful but it’s yours. Philia got enough for you so she could switch between them” Anne said.
“She got so much for me, there’s still more than enough left for me to switch between. I even kept two for Fel also and I still have enough left”
“Really?”
“Of course, please accept them” Layla said.
“Thank you” Anne smiled, accepting them and staring at them admiringly. “These are so beautiful and even in my best colors”

“Really? I’m glad you like them” Layla smiled.
“I love them” Anne grinned.
“Put this one on my hair please” She said handing one of the hairpins to Layla and then shifting her head closer.
Layla pinned it neatly on one side of Anne’s hair and Anne checked it out in the car rear-view mirror, smiling admiringly.
“It looks more beautiful on my hair, thanks Layla”
“It’s fine and yeah it really do look more beautiful on your hair, so perfect” Layla wink.

“Oh please, Daniel is the one who wants you wink more often, do that when you both are together” Anne teased and they laughed.

Layla is seated in the class, waiting for Dan.
She wondered what could be keeping him, she has gotten to school for some minutes now and she knows class would be starting soon .

Talk of the devil . . Mr Blaine walked in.

She sigh worriedly as she placed her book on the table, she grabbed her pen and raised her head to see what Mr Blaine would be taking them today but was surprised to find Dylan standing in front of her with his books and pen in hand.
She was lost for a while before getting herself together.

“Hi” She said, though she had said hi to him this morning and he had responded but right now, she’s at loss for words.
“Hi, seems Dan won’t be coming today. I will take his seat” He smiled, making to drop his books on Dan’s table.
“He’s coming, he’s on his way” Layla said though stunned.
Dylan is taking Dan’s seat! She couldn’t quite place what’s happening…

“Well, I’m gonna get up when he gets here” Dylan said. “Or do you mind?”
“Why? Why do you want to take his seat?” She asked, surprising herself. Her voice had even been firm, she knows she should be excited Dylan wants to sit beside her but . . she’s not, she’s flummoxed instead.
“Well, I’m going to get up when he gets here” Dylan said, sitting.
Layla stared at him and he smiled sweetly at her.
It had the same effect on her and she found her whole body turning jelly, she was starting melting under his gaze and sweet smile.

She turned sharply to the front of the class when she heard gasps and a gasp escaped her throat too. Seeing a part of Dan’s cheek covered in plaster and his lower lip bruised.
“Dan” She found herself muttering under her breath, her heart racing fast at what must have happened to him.

Anne had told her he was busy . .

He got to his seat and Layla was still so occupied with different thoughts to say anything to him or notice the anger on his face.
She noticed he wasn’t sitting, he was standing in front of his seat and then she realised Dylan was seated on his seat and wasn’t getting up!

“Get up” Dan said and Dylan acted like he wasn’t the one referred to.
OMG . . Layla breathed, sensing the trouble looming.
“You said you would get up when he’s here, you should. This is Dan’s seat” She said, not at all satisfied with Dylan’s behavior, he had said he would get up when Dan gets here and he’s doing otherwise.
“Well . .” Dylan said, getting up. “I didn’t realize he was here, I never thought a ‘Kung Fu master’ would ever sustain an injury and it even looked like he was beaten” Dylan laughed mockingly before walking away to his seat.

“Dan what ha..” Layla was saying.
“Don’t ever! . . ” Dan interrupted her coldly and she blinked at him, bewildered.
“Don’t ever! Allow anyone take up my seat just because of whatever uncontrollable feeling or weakness you have for them!” He added angrily and she stared at him, stunned.
