Mr. Ben the economics teacher and SS3C's class teacher walked into the rowdy call.

"Good morning sir" the whole class stood on their feet and greeted

"Good morning class. You may all have a sit" He greeted with a small smile

"As you all know your C.A test is starting today and I know most of you have made a very comfortable sitting arrangement. So I'll be rearranging your seats" He stared at their displeased faces one after the other and chuckled as they started grumbling and mumbling

"Everyone step forward" They all matches to the front of the class and started arranging them one after the other. Since the students in the class were not up to thirty he was very familiar with them therefore he knew those that were friends and those who couldn't even stand each other.

Angela grumbled when she was placed in the same seat as Vivian.

"Of all the people in this class he had to pair me with the copying machine" She angrily mumbled under her breath.

She took a seat and scanned the whole room. Her eyes landed on Mary who was paired with Pius. She looked like she was about to pass out.

She had a handkerchief tied around her nose as she batted her hand before her face like a handfan.

With a single stare one could tell that she looked uncomfortable and suffocated. From what Angela could see she was trying to stay as far away from Pius as only half of her ass was on the seat.

Her eyes Landed on Angela and she pulled the handkerchief off her face.

"Help me!"She mouthed with a pained look. Angela giggled.

She had an idea of exactly what was happening. The reason why Nobody has ever wanted to share a seat with Pius was because of his poor hygiene habits.

Everyone ran away from staying close to him or holding a conversation with him like the plaque and the annoying part was that he doesn't seem to notice his body and mouth odour.

"It's not funny!" Mary yelled and gagged at the foul air she breathed in.

"What's not Funny Mary?" Mr. Ben asked with a frown.

"Sir, I want..no I need a change of seat" Mary replied with an irritated look as she fanned herself with a notebook.

"Why is that?"Mr Ben folded his hands on his chest and gave her a pointed look

"I can't stand being here sir, this guy here *she points to Pius* stinks!" She yelled. The whole class erupted in laughter. As Pius gasped and Smelled himself.

"Silence!" Mr Ben yelled in a thunderous Voice.

"Mary you can't just say something like that"Mr Ben warned

"If I wasn't about to die I would have though of that" Mary replied.

"Died of what exactly my sweet sensation?"Pius asked in an annoyed voice. He looked offended and it angered Mary.

He Was killing her with his foul smell and instead of feeling sorry he was acting angry. She should be angry!

"Didn't you ever learn about personal hygiene at primary school? Or did your mom not tell you the basics about being clean?" Mary yelled

"Stop insulting me!"

"Insult? Have you seen your sweat patch?" She raised his hands displaying the dirty sweat patch of his armpit. Let's not even talk about the foul smell coming out of your mouth!...When was the last time you washed your uniform and brushed your teeth?!"She angrily ranted as the whole class kept laughing while Mr.Ben stood speechless watching as the whole scene unfolded.

Pius became speechless. He had no idea how to reply to that. He felt embarrassed. He wished he could disappear at that moment and hoped the ground would open up and swallow him.

As he stared at the faces of his laughing classmates he couldn't take it take it anymore and Made his way to the entry of the class but Mr. Ben stopped him.

"Go back to your seat Pius and take a sit, the tests are about to start"

"And me?" Mary asked

"You'll remain in your seat till the tests are over. After that you are all free to go back to your regular seats. And if you insist on a change if seat you can take the floor" He deadpanned and started calling the attendance list.

Mary frowned and tied her handkerchief back. She glared at Pius and grumpilly banged her head on the desk.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was closing time and Mary was angrily stomping out of her classroom. She was not angry at the test but at the smell she had to endure throughout the day.

She stormed to the hallway and was a few feets past the janitors closet when someone dragged her from behind and pushed her into the closet.

"Who is there?!"She yelled as she heard the clicking of lock which meant she was locked in the closet.

"This isn't funny okay?...Open the door!"She yelled and banged the door.

She was amongst the last people to make it out of her classroom because if the condition she found herself in. She had to keep fanning herself repeatedly while writing her tests.

She was sure the whole place was empty by now.

"Is someone there" She yelled and banged the door.

"Just great! This had to happen the one day I didn't bring my phone to school" She angrily mumbled

"If I find the idiot that trapped me here ehn!" She banged on the door and silence greeted her.

She leaned her back on the door and slipped down. She rested her head on her knees and closed her eyes. It was something she usually does to calm herself down.

About five minutes later she heard faint sounds of footsteps outside and a glimmer of hope sparked in her heart.

She started banging on the door, she wanted to get the attention of whoever was outside.

She kept banging till she clearly heard a voice. "Is someone there?" A male voice asked.

'Well dhur' she thought

"Yes. Please help me out" She called out.

She heard the lock click and the door slowly being opened. The light shined in her face, so she raised her hands to block it when a male figure stepped forward blocking the bright light.

"We really need to stop meeting like this" Dean said with a charming smile

"Yeah. You need to stop being where you were not invited"Mary replied with an eye roll and picked up her back.

"Hello! I just helped your ungrateful ass out of this closet" He replied with a slight frown

"Did I beg you to?"Mary replied with attitude.

"As if your desperate banging and pleading voice wasn't enough begging" He scoffed

"Whatever"She replied and walked out. Dean pulled her to his chest and wrapped his arms around her.

"Aren't you suppose to thank me" He smiled as he stared into her wide eyes.

"I..uhm...thanks"  Mary stuttered out.

"Don't you think I deserve better than that?" His breath fanned her face and she felt butterflies swimming in her stomach and her heart skipped a beat.

She watched as his face came closer to hers. She watched his movement with rapped attention as he licked his lips. She found her eyes staring longingly at his lips.

She watched as his eyes darkened with a feeling she couldn't understand and closed her eyes as his face was just inches away from hers.
