Chapter 22

**Elsa - [P.O.V]**

"Damon I need a ride to school, my car isn't fueled" I said to him looking into his eyes and he looks at me and then he smiles.

"Sure! I will take you to school even every day as long as you can cook this good" he said to me, finishing his food.

I carried his plate and quickly washed it and applied some fragrance to my palms.
"Okay let's go" I said to him carrying his bag and my bag while locking the door and heading to the car.

I got into his car and he started the engine and drove off.

We have reached now and he seems to be smiling a lot. "Why are you smiling?" I said to him, "nothing...there's nothing about my smiles, I guess I am smiling because I know how you dislike schooling" he said to me already putting a smile on my face.

We got out of the car and headed into school. He and I are both on the same level in schooling education. We are both science students studying environmental science in relation to human health.

He sits not so far from me and the lecturer walks in with her beautiful shining hot dress.

"Well students, today's topic is the relevance of environmental science, I hope you all did your assignments" she says to the whole class with a smile.

She tends to be a very positive person that even though she's a bit old she still looks young But no one answers.

"I said have you all done your assignments? Because I will be scoring your assignments before the class" she repeated herself again and that is when my heart started to beat.

I did not do my assignment, I turned back to look at Damon and he looked at me with a worried look.

I used my pen to signal to him in a way that fitted to what the lecturer had said, he nodded a sign that he has done his assignment and I haven't done mine.

"God!!! I Am going to fail her exams, she just said she was going to use her assignment as our test" I said to myself tapping my table.

Damon raises his hands up that he has done his assignment and she asks him to stand up which he did.

"Okay since you raised your hands first I appoint you as the leader of my class, please collect the assignments from the people that have done their assignments okay" she says and He stands up and starts collecting other students assignments.

Then he stops at where I sat.

"Give me your book" he says to me with a bit of a seriousness "I didn't do it, I forgot to do it." I said to him , folding my hands. He stretched his hands and he picked my book, placing it on the other remaining books.

"what are you doing?" I whispered to him as he walked away with my eyes wide open and then he dropped the books on the lecturer's table and sat next to her.

"I am so super dead" I said to myself waiting for the lecturer to discover that I have not done my assignment so that she could use me to teach self-discipline till the time is over.

She flips open my book and then she finds my emptiness.

She carried her red pen and I am sure she wanted to draw my dump head in it or a dead emoji or something to show how not disciplined I am, then she acted like she had marked a thing, maybe she just stroked the blank page.

"This is excellent" she says to herself and to the class.

"I am so deadly dead" I said to myself about taking an excuse and running away, because she's always positive even when it is negative.

He is on a seat next to the lecturer collecting other books she had marked but she keeps my book aside and after scoring the rest of the students she picks my book up.

"Who owns this book?" she asked him and he pointed at me, and I was about to explode in my seat just seeing her look at me with those lectured deadly eyes.

"Come here child" she said to me and I stood up and walked towards her.

"Did you acquire help to do this masterpiece?" she says as I walk towards her to get screwed.

What?...

"Wait...what masterpiece?" I said to myself reaching her front table. I came closer to her and she pointed into my book.

I can see that I had done the assignment.
But I am a hundred percent sure that I didn't even touch my bag after the holidays.
"Yes Ma, I did it myself but with the help of my friend Damon" I said pointing at him and he looks at me with a confused look and she turns and looks at him.

"Well I did not say you cannot ask for help, or get assistance from someone and did you help her too in question two?" she said, looking at Him.

"I did not help her, I just enlightened her on the topic and she did the rest by herself in writing, didn't you?" he says to me with a stern face.

"Yeah... I developed more ideas on it ma" I said to the lecturer, "Good! you both get an 'A' on this assignment, you can all go back to your seats with your books" she concludes and we went back to our seats.

"How was that even possible? I turned and I looked at Him sitting behind me, his face was looking at the lecturer with full attention and he's trying to behave like he did not notice my stares.

I feel like slapping him now, his leg touched my shoe and I shivered, "I know I saw those pages blank.

How did these words appear in my book and look like I did write them, is it some sort of magic?" I said in my thoughts as I looked at the assignment I did not do "And focus!" the lecturer says looking towards me.

I looked at her with my mind in a totally different place, thirty minutes had passed and the class was over.

The lecturer walks out waving a bye to us, she's such a positive person.

I turned and my eyes looked at Damon before I could talk to him, his fellow guys surrounded him like flies on rotten cheese.

He must be feeling so special to have so much attention on him.

It's break time, I carried my book and walked out of the class and that is when my eyes met with Jones.

The guy from my birthday party.
