( UNPLANNED CONFESSION )

JoJo’s eyes remained wide, she’s not even processing what she just heard yet.

“Say something, do you need time?, Should I wait?” Butter asked, searching through her face.

“No” she whispered, coming back to her senses.

“So….

“I’m… sorry” she muttered, and he swallowed hærd.

“What?”

“I love someone else” she replied, and his eyes w¡dened.

“Are you saying this to push me away?”

“No, I really love someone, so much that I’m going crazy” she replied, unable to fight back her tears as they fell down her cheeks.

“Draco?” He asked with a sad smile, and JoJo started stepping back.

“I’m sorry” she said and took one more step back before rushing out of the class in tears.

Butter continued standing, dipping his hands into his pockets.

He was looking so downcast on his s₱0t till his phone rang in his pocket.

It’s his mum.

He hissed out and switched off his phone before leaving the class, but James came rushing to him immediately.

“Drake!, Your mum is here!”

“What!” His eyes w¡dened.

“You need to stop her before she comes out of her car” James replied and they both rushed to the park where they truly saw m–nna’s car.

“Shit” Butter muttered and rushed to it just when she was about to come out of the car.

He pushed her back into the car and entered with her, breathing heavily.

m–nna’s perfume made him start coughing.

“Oh dear, you’re still not tolerant to strong perfumes” m–nna smiled and started stroking his hair.

“What are you doing here?” He questioned, slapping her hand away.

“I can’t even visit my only son?” She smiled, her red l-ips glittering.

“I never asked for a visit to spoil my reputation!, You’re an international whore who gets f**ked for money!, Think about the damage and jeopardy my life will undergo once it gets revealed that you!, The popular p–nstar is my mother!, Aren’t you ashamed?, Because of you I had to keep my real name a secret, even my surname!” He yelled hurtfully, and m–nna laughed, chewing gum b*tchily.

“You know you can’t keep it forever, Drake Morrison” she said, and tears finally fell from his eyes.

“What have I ever done to you?, Why are you hell bent on ruining my life?, Why did you become a whore after dad’s death?, Why are you doing this to me why!” He yelled in tears.

“Aww, baby stop crying, it hurts” m–nna smiled and started wiping his tears, that’s when she detected his body hotness.

“You have a high temperature!, Are you sick?, Let’s get you to the…

“Cut it out and get the f**k out of my life!, Never come to see me again!, Either here in school or my unit” he yelled and got out of the car, slamming the door shut.

m–nna drove off, and James hugged Butter immediately, patting him gently.

“Don’t cry, stop please”

Viola who has been watching the scene since it started inhaled from her s₱0t.

She actually came to see JoJo and maybe catch a glimpse of Butter.

“Whose car is that?, Why is he crying after coming out of it?” She wondered, still staring.

James eventually took Butter away, and she turned back to go, but Kelly blocked her.

“One Punch!” He smiled, and she smirked.

“Are you leaving my sight or you need that one punch?” She glared.

“This is exactly why I like you, sassy and feisty” he smiled again.

“I guess I really need to kill you” she said and threw him a punch, but he caught her fist and pinned her to the wall with a silly smile.

“Not so strong” he said.

“And you’re not so smart” she replied and raised her leg to his middle, hitting him there.

“Damn!” He gr–ned, letting her go.

“Be kind for once ok?, It won’t kill” he said.

“Moron” Viola rolled eyes and walked away.

“Hey what’s your name!” Kelly shouted after her, but she only looked back and gave him the middle finger before leaving completely.

“F**k, she’s a whole mood” he laughed.

HUMANITIES LT**

Draco didn’t come to class, same with Butter.

Even Luke and Walton aren’t in school.

Just the faces of Kavita and the sunflowers are available.

JoJo couldn’t concentrate throughout, she wasn’t even hearing the lecturer.

Till the end of the class, she could swear that she gained nothing, and at the end, she started staring into space.

“JoJolove, is something wrong? You look disturbed” Luna said immediately, and JoJo looked at her.

“Huh!”

“Are you ok?” Snow and Winter asked at a time.

“I’m fine, just a little bit tired” she lied.

“Come on, it’s only midday” Snow said cheerfully, and JoJo managed to smile brightly .

“That’s my kitten, let’s go grab some bites at the cafeteria” Snow said and pulled her out of the class.

Winter and Luna followed them

Kavita smiled immediately, then she got a text on her phone.

She smirked and packed her books, leaving the class.

“What should we do about JoJo and Snow?, They’re your main competitors for the most beautiful” Cora suddenly said.

“I don’t have any plan, all our plans are always failing, I’m tired” v×rgiπia yawned lazily.

“So… we’re just gonna let them be?, Crazy Luna is the leader of JoJo’s campaign, insane Winter is the leader of Snow’s, we all know that those two has a higher chance of winning” Cora replied.

“Cora let’s not talk about it now, I’m really exhausted, ok?” v×rgiπia held her forehead.

“Fine” Cora fell back on her seat.

“I have an idea” Abigail suddenly suggested.

“What?” v×rgiπia rolled eyes.

“What if we try to dig out their pasts maybe we can find any dirt” Abigail replied.

“Dirts like?” Cora asked.

“Just anything we can use against them,, let’s try first” Abigail telling.

“Whatever, just can’t wait for LOVERBOYZ concert tonight to see my Lustre again” Cora smiled.

CAFETERIA**

Immediately the girls settled down to eat, Viola entered the cafeteria.

She doesn’t need to shout before drawing attention, her presence is enough.

👥 Who’s she?

👥 Just my type!

👥 I love her arm tats!

“Viola?” JoJo said surprisingly.

“You know her?” Winter asked.

“Yeah” JoJo smiled when she finally got to their table.

“Hi babies!” Viola winked and sat with them, taking one from the eggs on Luna’s plate.

Luna grabbed her hand, and they looked at each other.

“It’s my egg, drop it” Luna said.

“You still have close to ten eggs left on your plate, I only took one” Viola replied.

“I don’t care, I value one egg more than my life so drop it” Luna replied.

“Now I badly wanna eat it” Viola smiled knowingly.

“Don’t dare!” Luna smirked.

“Watch me” Viola replied and folded her palms more tightly on the egg.

It cracked, and Luna’s eyes w¡dened as she threw it up.

The egg shell fell off midair, and the egg itself fell back down…. straight into Viola’s mouth.

Luna’s eyes w¡dened more as Viola started eating it slowly.

“Sweet” she winked.

“My egg” Luna whispered before breaking into tears.

“My egg!!!!!!!!!” She s¢ræmed, shocking Viola herself.

“Luna” JoJo said surprisingly as tears came out of Luna’s eyes.

“What the f**k” Viola muttered.

“Lunatic it’s just one egg” Winter said.

“She’s really crying” Snow chuckled.

“My egg!!!!!!!!” Luna cried again, and Viola quickly rushed to the food stands.

“Fifty eggs please” she said, and she was given a big bowl of the boiled eggs.

She took it and ran back to the table where she placed it in front of Luna.

“Here, fifty eggs in place of one” she said, and Luna stopped crying immediately.

She wiped her tears and faced down for a minute, but when she looked up, she was already smiling.

“I love you!, What’s your name?” She hugged Viola.

“After taking fifty eggs?, Are you an ancestral spirit or what?” Viola said in awe.

“Her name is Viola, Viola this is Snow, that’s Luna, and that’s Winter” JoJo introduced.

“Aww, my Viola!, I love you soo much!, Let’s be friends ok?, I love your tattoos, and piercings!” Luna shouted, and Viola smiled.

“So your name is Viola” Kelly said, walking past their table.

Viola rolled eyes at him as he walked away.

“Wait!, That madman has a crush on you?” Winter said.

“His headache” Viola replied.

“You seem to have a problem with him Winter” Snow said.

“He’s my ex, we dated in highschool” Winter replied.

“Whoa!!!” Viola and Luna said.

Luna was already stuffing her face with the eggs.

“Are you related to JoJo?” Snow asked.

“No, but Draco is my brother” Viola replied, and Snow’s eyes w¡dened

“Not biological though, but I call him my brother” Viola further said, and Snow smiled.

“Nice to meet you”

“Same here” Viola replied, wondering the reason for the sudden change.

Luna smiled as she shoved another egg into her mouth.

“By the way where’s he JoJo?, I checked the amphitheatre but he’s not there, that’s where he always is if he’s not in class” Viola asked, but JoJo was busy staring into space, she didn’t even hear her.

“JoJo!” Winter and Luna called at a time, and she jumped.

“Huh!”

“You’ve gone far, what’s wrong with you?” Winter asked.

“Nothing” JoJo smiled.

“Where’s Draco?, And Butter too” Viola asked again.

“I have…no idea” JoJo replied simply.

“You know Butter too?” Snow asked.

“Of course, I might not be a student but he’s my idol” Viola smiled.

“Crush?” Luna asked.

“Maybe” Viola smiled, and Luna smiled shortly before returning to devouring her eggs.

“So I heard the dinner awards night is next week, Butter must win the most handsome!” Viola said.

“What about Draco?” Snow asked.

“He’s antisocial” Viola replied, and Winter showed her his poster on phone.

“What!” Viola’s eyes w¡dened.

“Someone signed up for him though we don’t know who” Winter said, and Snow drank water.

“So…he’s contesting?, Where did the person get his picture from?, He hates snapping himself like crazy” Viola said, still in shock.

“The picture is not even clear, it was obviously snapped by a stalker” Luna replied.

“Gosh, so who should I campaign for?, Idol or brother?” Viola said.

“Just do both” Winter replied.

James passed by their table and dropped milkshake in front of Snow.

Winter watched hurtfully as he winked at Snow before walking away.

“Whoa, someone’s got a crush on Snow” Viola said.

“I swear it the next time he tries this, I’mma embarrass him” Snow said and threw the milkshake at the wall, then she stood and left the cafeteria.

“I…I need to use the restroom” JoJo said and left immediately too.

She got to the nearest one and locked the door on herself, then she squatted and got her phone.

She stared at Draco’s number for long, wanting to dial it badly and just hear him say hello, but she’s scared.

Her fingers were shaking on the phone as she tried clicking on his line, then a text came in.

*GOOD GIRL, I LOVE THE WAY YOU HANDLED HIM EARLIER, NOW STAY AWAY FROM HIM, I’M WATCHING!*

Her eyes w¡dened, and she spranged up.

“I’m…I’m… being watched?”

5PM★CULT HOUSE**

Draco got a mail from Stone to come to the house, and that’s why he’s here.

He’s still so weak from what he heard today, weak and sick, so his steps are grudging as he walked in.

He stepped into Stone’s part of the house and met Kavita coming out of his room.

She stopped till he got to him, and when he made to go in, she held him.

“Draco, I…

“You’re good at it, I’m not surprised that you services reach this place” he said and gave her a glare before going in.

Stone was just putting on his pants back, his mask is still intact on his face.

“Why the mail?” Draco asked, and Stone sat on the bed, his muscles showing off on his exposed arms and back.

“You know me more than anyone else here, and that’s because I personally trained you” he said.

Draco kept quiet.

“You know about my hand tremor, how I can’t handle guns well, you know about my allergy to perfumes, you know everything about me except my face, and I’m ready to show you that” he further said, and Draco looked up.

“I’m challenging you to a duel, chose anytime you like and come meet me at my personal training hall, if you succeed in making my back hit the ground, I’ll show you my face”

LOVERBOYZ UNIT★7PM**

Luke has been experiencing hellish menstrual pains since daybreak, she had to lie to Walton that it’s a minor headache so he won’t have to worry, but it didn’t work.

Walton refused to go to class, he stayed with her throughout, stroking her hair to calm down the headache, if only he knew it’s actually cramps.

Right now she’s in the bathroom, taking her bath, and after she was done, she came out and forgot to shut the door before taking the towel away from her body.

She was holding her stomach as she got her body lotion, and immediately she pressed did, the door opened, and she froze as Walton came in.

Walton’s eyes w¡dened at what he’s seeing, and he almost passed out.

B**bs!, P*ssy!

“Luke!!!!” He shouted shockingly.

“Aaaarrrggggg!!!!” Luke s¢ræmed, passing out on the bed.

RIVERSIDE★7:30**

Draco came down from his bike and got the anklet box from his pocket with the intention of coming to throw it in the river, maybe it’ll make him stop thinking about her.

He looked at the box again and started walking closer to the river, but he was surprised to see Butter.

He was sitting on the bench with a bottle of alcohol in his hand, facing the river.

Immediately Draco saw him, he turned back to leave…

“Stop trying to play with JoJo’s heart, I know your type, stay away from her” Butter suddenly said, standing up.

Draco stopped walking and looked back.

“Who said I’m lusting after her?, If I want a p*ssy to f*ck, I’d go to a brothel” he said simply.

“So… Are you in love with her?” Butter asked slowly, his eyes begging Draco to say no.

Draco scoffed and started walking away, but Butter rushed to block him.

“I’m asking this cos I’m madly in love with her!” Butter shouted loudly.

“I’m insanely in love with her too!, Do you know how hærd it is to stop myself from k-sing her anytime I see her?, She kept driving me crazy and I’m already mad right now!, I never slept a wink last night all because of her!, I love concentrating in class but since it started, I always stare at her!, She’s the first girl I’ve ever done unbelievable things because of!, I hate seeing her tears and I always feel the urge to kill whoever makes her cry!, I hate when she’s sad and love how her warm body always feels on my cold body!, I love her slimness, her stature, her natural face!, I love her hair color and I love her pure white nails!, I love when she walks or talks!, I love her smile and will do anything to make her smile!, I can even hurt myself to make that happen!, I love her l-ips and set of teeth!, I love her voice!, I love every f**king thing about her!, I’m crazily in love with her!, So much that it hurts!” Draco shouted, breathing heavily as he said every word.

Butter’s eyes were widely opened throughout, and it kept w¡dening.

He couldn’t say anything after everything, so Draco turned to go, but to his utmost shock, he saw JoJo standing there with tears on her face.

His eyes w¡dened, and he froze, she obviously heard everything.

“JoJo” he whispered shockingly.

“Knight” she cried gently, not taking her eyes off his beautiful brown eyes.
