C5 Wait, what?!

Odin's standpoint

"A little of your love

That's all I want, baby

A little of your smile

That's all I seek, oh yeah

Would you believe my love is true?

Even if our friendship is new?

Do you see me that way?

Do you miss me everyday?

Baby..." I looked at the guys who were looking at me with the same look. Zed was singing and he was happy. He had been like that since class where he obviously laughed because of that person.

"Is he alright?" We looked at the floor which was littered with rose petals. Zed was using a scissors to murder the roses he ordered for. I tapped my nose thoughtfully.

"I think he finally took weed," Darra whispered. We looked at him and frowned. "What? It's true."

"Maybe you should go check, he loves you," I stood up from the sun lounger to hit him. He stood up, squeaked and ran off. We were at the pool in our mansion. I walked to Zed nevertheless and tapped him.

"Uhm?" He hummed.

"Darra thinks you took weed," Zed paused his hand and looked at me. "You are singing with joy and murdering roses?"

"Yes, why?"

"I should be asking you that. That person, the white haired, do you know her?"

"No, why?"

"Do you love her? Because I want to know if I would win her heart or not," Cedric shouted from where he was.

"No, I want her." Alvin argued.

"No, I do. You already took Hana and Etsuko," Cedric snapped.

"Chiyo and Izumi chose you over me," Alvin said angrily.

"Yes, but Nicky and Tamar went for you,"

"Then you took them again! Cedric, you can't always take all the women, leave some for us!"

"Ignoring those two, I don't like her, I don't know her and don't want to. And don't you say my cutting roses has something to do with her because it doesn't. Now, leave me alone." Zed said harshly. Yup, he knows her.

"Okay, just know that you will clean this up after you are done."

"I always clean up my own mess," he murmured to himself. Strange, really.

_______________

I hate school, really. Too bad we had to return to go to school. We weren't in the high school category, in the music class section which was like a university to get another music certificate. It wasn't necessary but our presence brought more fame to the school. It made students more desperate to attend the school. Simple business logic.

Unfortunately, literature wasn't escapable for me. I hate it. Zed sat beside me as usual, typing away at his phone. Cedric was busy flirting with a girl, Alvin probably fingering his seatmate because her face was pale. Darra was annoying Jake. Isaac, turning his book upsidedown as he tried to figure out how to read it.

That girl saunters into the class, the teacher behind her. She was helping her carry two glass orbs. Endou-sensei was laughing as the girl smiled. Everyone quiet down immediately she walked in and watched with mouth open. Endou Kazue was the meanest and harshest teacher in the whole school. She didn't tolerate nonsense or listen to one either and she certainly doesn't smile!

"Thank you very much, Rosita darling, you are a sweetheart." Endou-sensei said with her wide smile, even pinching her cheek.

"I'm always here to help, Oba," the cute white haired giggled.

"Tch, showoff," Zed scoffed. I smiled secretly. These two had history. With the way he was acting, this must be the girl he once mentioned his parents wanted him to marry. I wonder what he was thinking saying no to this beautiful peri.

"I'll sit now, Oba," she bowed and then skipped towards us. I watched her slow down when she got closer to us. I didn't miss the quick hateful exchange between them. Then Zed cruelly put out his leg and trip her over. White screamed as she fell forward but she caught herself with quick reflexes. The consequences of her quick action resulted to her skirt flying open and revealing her beautiful white thighs and sexy black ruby panties.

First, rubies. Next, oh my wow! She straightened up quickly but those around got a look at it. The boys including my foolish teammate whistled while the girls gasped from the expensive panties and laughed from the whole humiliating thing.

"You devil! I told you to stay away from me!" She shouted. Zed looked at her like he didn't do anything, like she was a mad woman.

"What is your problem?" He asked with feign innocence.

"You did that on purpose!"

"Tch, do I know you?" He scoffed. She swung her hand and slapped the back of his head. "Ya!" He shouted, jumping to his feet to beat her up. I quickly launch forward and pulled him back down.

"No, let him come, show me what you can do, Zedetwatass," she taunted. He grind his teeth together with anger. "Ha, nothing. You are all dick and no juice..." Zed flew out of my hands with the speed of lightning. White girl was fast enough to move out of the way and push him. He tumbled on top of Isaac and they accidentally kissed.

The whole class burst into laughter. Isaac pushed him off and started spitting while Zed just wiped his mouth. White girl smirked at him before going to her seat. Definitely his unknown betrothed. I love her courage.

"I hate you." Zed growled.

"Fuck you." You said in English.

"Okay, okay, break it up, break it up!" Endou-sensei shouted. "Everyone pay attention. I am not going to be around for two weeks, have a wedding to attend so I will be leaving you all with an important assignment..."

"No!"

"Sensei, no!"

"Oh come on!"

"Do we always have to?"

"Why can't you just leave in peace!"

"Silence," she commanded. "You will be partnering up in three and each writing a story on a given topic. You will be doing this assignment with the high school seniors. Now, all of you, move to the hall so I would make the announcement." And that was how we trooped to the big hall.

"This is how we are going to do it. Since the boys are surprisingly more than the girls, a girl will come forward and pick two papers out of this orb. Whatever name she picks, those boys have to work with her. After picking the name, she picks from this orb and choose the story they would work on. It can be about a bird, love tragedy, romance, action, even a play. Anything you pick, you'll have to work on. Let's begin. Sora, why don't you pick first?"

Sora got up lazily and strolled out. She lazily picked out two papers, opened it and read it out. "Nino Blake and Stephanie Hoffman? I get a girl?"

"I added some girls too, just to fit in the number." Sora nodded. Whoever the girl is would be a slave. Sora was a witch after all. Still can't believe I dated her.

"Next, Rita," Rita, Sora's best friend and fellow member of Diamonds walked out. She picked Alvin and another teammate to their delight. People kept choosing until it got to my tortured angel.

"Sugimoto Sakura," She stood up quietly from where she sat cuddled up in white girl's arms. Sakura walked to Endou-sensei, dipped her hand into the glass orb and brought out two papers. She opened the first one.

"Sasaki Idou," the girls tittered.

"It's only right she gets a rag like herself," Jezebel one laughed. Sakura quietly opened the other one. Her eyes widened with horror.

"No, no, no," she slammed the paper on the table, "I demand a change," she commanded angrily.

"Shut up, Sakura, Your partner is your..."

"I don't want to work with any filthy idol," she spat angrily.

"Say what?" Cedric said quizzically. Sensei took the paper, read it and rolled her eyes.

"It's either you do it or you fail,"

"Then fail it is." Wow, she hates our kind. That's a first.

"Are you ready to make all three of you fail because that is what will happen." Sensei said evenly.

"This is how much I care," she turned around and stomped out. Sensei stared at her with shock. Sakura was usually the sweet one. She composed herself and looked towards Isaac.

"If you don't want to fail, Isaac Fukushima, then you better find a way to convince her," she picked out a topic for them, "your topic is to write a story base on a fictional kingdom. The story should be about a character who is a spoilt prince or princess who cares for no one but him or herself. But later change when he got lost and met a girl or a boy. The poor person taught him or her humility, they fall in love and blah blah. Rosita Darling, you are next."

Rosita bounced out merrily. She went to the topic orb first, picked one out and her smile fell when she read it. "Seriously? Romance? Really?!"

"Read it out."

"Write any romance story that deals with spending at least fourteen days with the person the main characters hate... Like, make sure they hate themselves. They go through this and that and at the end, falls in love. Or, a short story about high school rivals falling in love. So cheesy and ridiculous." She threw the paper away.

"Just pick your partners," Sensei chuckled. Rosita murmured something and picked out two paper. She opened the first one.

"Someone named Odin Matsumoto," I smirked and raised my hand. "Whatever," she opened the second one. Rosita's eyes widened. She wiped it again and again. "Please, tell me my glasses aren't working well," she handed it to Sensei. She looked at the paper and started laughing.

"The second person is Zedekiah Grimshaw,"

"Wait, what?!" Zed shrieked with shock. Oh, this is going to be interesting.
