August 25 2023

Two weeks have passed, and everything has been going well, There have been a lot of quizzes, tests, special classes, and more club activities as most students were focused on their studies and activities along with dealing with their personal problems in life.

Right now, Benjamin was seen stressing out over an upcoming test on math as he was sitting by the courtyard while thinking about the upcoming test, The class was gonna start once Robotics class was over as McFarland was sitting and holding his head, He already had a lot of other things to stress over about.

His best friend Racheal was seen approaching towards him as She sat next to him and spoke to him.

Racheal: Hey, you should get back inside.

Benjamin: Oh yeah, I should.

Racheal: Hey, don't stress yourself out, okay?

Benjamin: I'm trying not to.

Racheal: Look, if you stress out, you're going to struggle to write the test, Just try to relax yourself okay?

Benjamin took a deep breath, knowing she was right as Racheal gave a small smile to him, Ben smiled at her before they both got up and went back to the university, The two friends were walking while talking to each other about the test.

Racheal: So, how many questions are there?

Benjamin: A bunch as I heard, It's also written in the back of the page.

Racheal: Ooof, I can understand that. Why does the teacher have you surprise you like that?

Benjamin: I don't know, Maybe he knows I don't like math.

Racheal laughed a little as Benjamin rolled his eyes and smiled at her, Just then, Darby approached them as he smiled and fixed his hair.

Darby: What happened, Is Racheal troubling you again?

Racheal: Nope, I didn't say anything. He's just mad about the upcoming test.

Darby: Don't worry, Benjamin. I'm sure you are a smart guy, You can do that.

Benjamin: Yeah, thanks for the confidence, Darby.

He spoke in an annoyed tone as Darby and Racheal smiled at each other before they tapped his shoulder as Benjamin stared at him, However Ben remembered that he left a book in the library yesterday as he looked at his friends and spoke to them.

Benjamin: Hold on, I need to grab something from the library, I'll be right back.

Racheal: Sure.

Benjamin quickly walked away as Racheal and Darby looked at each other and smiled until they heard footsteps and saw Gionna, Her boyfriend Grayson Weller, and her two friends, Mandy Rose and Jacy Jayne.

Grayson: What a weird couple.

Gionna: Hey Darby, Were you blind when you fell in love with her?

Darby: Hey, don't talk to her like that!

Racheal felt a bit angry by Gionna's words and stood silent as Mandy said something.

Mandy: Come on, Darby, you could have loved a girl like me or Jacy over here, but you picked Racheal of all people?

Racheal: That's because he doesn't like plastic dolls!

Their eyes widen in anger and shock as Gionna yelled at her.

Gionna: And what makes you think you're pretty!?

Grayson: I think Darby isn't the only one with bad taste, You consider a half dead punk as your "boyfriend"

Grayson began mocking them as Darby and Racheal had anger coursing through their veins as it escalated into an argument where everyone was throwing insults to each other.

Grayson was getting into Darby's face and insulted him and his girlfriend, Darby had enough and punched him in the face as Racheal had a smirk on her face, happy that her boyfriend shut him up as the girls began yelling at the couple as both of them were telling them to back off.

Until the teachers arrived, the argument was still happening as the teachers stopped them and told them to go to the principal's office

Meanwhile Benjamin was unaware of the fight that happened, He was hoping that nobody stole his book in the library as Benjamin took off his glasses and began cleaning it with a small cloth, However he didn't realise he was walking towards one of the clubs as Benjamin opened the door and thought he was in the library.

However, He was hearing music in the room, Benjamin put on his glasses and was confused by the music choice.

Benjamin: I don't remember the library playing Indian songs.

Benjamin's eyes widened when he realised he entered the dancing club instead, He looked in front of the stage and saw three women dancing.

Nora:

Keerthy:

Benjamin was stunned by their dance moves, but one certain woman caught his attention as McFarland took off his glasses again and looked at the woman.

Disha and her friends were dancing as Benjamin began staring at Didha as the girls continued dancing as they did their last dance move as the music ended.

Benjamin was staring at them until he realised he was standing there for too long as the girls turned around and noticed him.

Keerthy: Excuse me? Who are you?

Benjamin: . . . . Sorry, I didn't mean to disturb.

The girls stared at him as Benjamin immediately walked away while closing the door, The girls looked at each other and let out a small laugh while taking a deep breath.

Nora: That was kind of awkward.

Disha: Indeed, He seemed very awkward.

Keerthy: Hahaha, I agree.

Disha smiled to herself and began thinking about Benjamin again, He seemed pretty cute to her.

Anne was seen leaving the principal's office after sending Gionna and her friends along with Darby and Racheal to the office as the principal was speaking to them about the matter, It wasn't really the first time they had a fight.

Anne continued walking until she bumped into someone as she looked and saw who it was as a smile grew on her face.

Anne: Oh hey there, Sorry I didn't see you.

Cillian: *Smiles* It's alright, so I guess those students are in trouble, right?

Anne: Not sure, but they might be.

Cillian: This wasn't the first time they had a fight, though.

Anne: I agree, But I feel like Gionna and her friends started this, They are the ones with bad influence in this college.

Cillian: That's true, And there is a lot of students just like her.

Anne nodded as She was walking downstairs until Cillian grabbed her hand and helped her walk down the stairs as Anne had a smile on her face.

Anne: *Smiles* Gentlemen

Cillian: Just wanted to help out.

He caressed her hand as Anne continued smiling at him, feeling the warmth of his touch, Both of them were looking at each other as Cillian cleared his throat and wanted to say something to her.

Cillian: Can I ask you something, Anne?

Anne: Sure, What is it?

Cillian: I know it seems a bit early to ask but since the weekend is coming closer, I thought you and I could go out somewhere.

Anne was shocked as Cillian was smiling at her but also felt a bit nervous, He was hoping she would say yes.

Anne: You're asking me out on a date?

Cillian: Couldn't resist.

Anne had a huge smile on her face and was really happy knowing that someone finally asked her out after so long, Even though they are both colleagues, They have been occasionally talking to each other since their last interaction two weeks ago.

Anne: Of course, I'll love to go with you.

He had a smile on his face as He kissed her hand, Anne had a slight blush on her face as Cillian looked at her.

Cillian: Great, I can't wait for the weekend.

Anne: You gotta give me a hint of where we're going.

Cillian: Oh, I'll show you where we will go and what we will do.

His tone became more flirtatious and teasing as Anne had a smirk on her face, There was already some tension in the air, and both of them had some intentions, but they weren't showing it.

Anne: I'm excited already. Anyways, we will talk more after college ends.

Cillian: See you later, Darling.

Anne winked at him and walked away as Cillian had a huge smile on his face and began thinking about her as he walked away and was thinking about the upcoming date.

College was over as many students were seen going home, some of them were going to their dorm while others were taking extra classes, Chris was seen walking through the hallway while thinking about his studies, He fixed his hair until he saw Aliyah who was standing by the corner while talking to someone on the phone.

Both of them locked eyes and a gaze as Aliyah had a smirk on her face and continued staring at Chris while talking on the phone, Chris began walking towards her while still staring at her.

Aliyah finished her phone call as Chris was smiling at her before he blew a kiss and winked at her while waving.

Chris: *Chuckles* Hey Aliyah, You look gorgeous.

Aliyah: Aww, thanks, Chris, You really know how to impress a woman.

Chris: You think so?

Aliyah: Of course, I mean, if I had to pick between you and the most handsome football player, I would definitely pick you.

She winked and smirked at him as Chris was already liking the way she talked to him as He smiled at her.

Chris: I really appreciate that, Anyways heading to your dorm?

Aliyah: I might go out actually. . . Then again, I don't think the college will let me go and have fun.

Chris: I'm getting bored of staying here, How about we sneak out together?

Aliyah: Oooh, Risky. . . . But I like it.

They both smiled at each other as Chris looked around before he quickly told her to follow him.

Soon, Chris and Aliyah managed to sneak out of college together as both of them were seen holding hands while running far from the college, Once they were far enough. The two shared a laugh together and shared a quick hug.

Aliyah: That plan worked out very well!

Chris: That's right, Me and my friends always use that method to escape.

Aliyah: That's really cool and smart.

Chris: Yeah, but promise me not to tell anyone about this, Gorgeous.

Aliyah: *Smirks* I won't, But there is a price to pay.

Chris: Hmmm? And what would that be?

Aliyah: I'll tell you later, How about we go do something right now?

Chris: There is a bar nearby, Wanna grab a drink?

She thought about it before she nodded and smiled at him, Both of them made their way to the bar and ordered two alcoholic drinks for themselves as both of them were drinking.

Aliyah: So, Whats your family like?

Chris: *Shrugs* Mom and Dad hate me, Brother is a huge prick.

Aliyah: Ooof, Sorry to hear.

Chris: And of course my parents love pricks so they always favourtise my brother.

Aliyah: You're Brother sounds like a real jerk.

Chris: If you met him, You will beg me to punch him in the face.

Aliyah: *Chuckles while drinking* I think I would. But I would prefer to be in my knees and beg for you.

She smirked as Chris looked at her in shock, However he smirked and took of his drink as Johnson replied to her in a teasing tone.

Chris: I like to be that come true.

She continued smiling at him while keeping her gaze on him, Both of them were silent but there was a lot of tension in the air as both of them continued talking to each other as Chris placed a hand on her thign as Aliyah continued smiling at him.

Meanwhile, Logan, who sneaked out of college as well, was seen walking through the streets while smoking a cigarette, He continued walking while thinking about something.

A few minutes passed as Logan walked into an alleyway and saw multiple men and women sitting on the ground, Things were already looking shady as Logan continued smoking a cigarette until a woman approached to him.

Priscilla Kelly: Hey Logan, Do I know what your looking for?

Logan: Exactly, Where are the good stuff?

Priscilla: Just a minute, I'll give it to you, Is there anyone with you?

Logan: Nope, Just me.

Priscilla: Did someone see you?

Logan shook his head as Priscilla smiled at him before walking away as Logan stared at the men and woman who were doing drugs as Kenway continued waiting until Priscilla came back holding a small bag

Priscilla: Here, Take it.

Logan: Thanks, Red. I really appreciate it.

Priscilla: *Smiles* No problem, Follow me.

Logan nodded and followed her through the alleyway as they were standing a bit far from the people that were doing drugs as both of them were talking to each other.

Priscilla: So how is college going for you?

Logan: It's going good so far, and how is your job going?

Priscilla: It's fine, The salon can be a bit boring though.

Logan: *Chuckles* I see, Even college gets boring for me sometimes.

Priscilla just smiled at him as She looked at the cigarette and spoke to him.

Priscilla: Can I get one?

Logan smiled and nodded as he gave her a cigarette, She smiled and placed it on her mouth as Logan used the lighter to light it up.

For the next few minutes, Both of them were smoking and talking to each other, However Priscilla has been giving him strange looks to him, She finally revealed her true intentions as she spoke to him.

Priscilla: You know, Logan. I'm been feeling kinda lonely~

Logan: Oh really?

Priscilla: Yeah and I'm been in a mood lately~

She smirked and bit her lip as Logan was starting to get in that mood as well, He chuckled before pulling her closer and said something.

Logan: Then let's fix that.
