8 No, Not Even A Bit

"Ella" I called her as I stop not too close from where they standing

My forehead creased because of the heat from the sun that touches my bare skin. I don't know what got into her mind and she's here in the field with her friends. It's too hot really.

Surprise is visible in her face as she turn around to look at me so I raised my eyebrow.

"Hi Cam" the guy beside her greeted me with a coy smile on his face

Instantly, Ella turn her gaze on him and glare.

"Not Cami Greg!" she squeal like a child sounding so irritated causing her friends to laughed in unison

I slightly raised my head feeling so uncomfortable with the heat from the sun not minding what their doing. It so hot here, what's with their mind really?

"Sorry about Greg Cam" Ella said as she stood in front of me

I gaze at the guy named Greg before I nod my head.

"It so hot here, what's with you guys?" I complained and walk away

I heard her giggle as she follow me. The weather changes so quickly, this past few days the rain won't stop and then now it so sunny to the point that I just wanted to rain. This climate change makes my head ache. What is exactly happening to our world?

"I'm going to Xeverin later, can you accompany me?" I ask her as we stop walking

She look at me in disbelief. Looking at her, obviously she wanted to shout and ask me with those annoying questions of her. But she's shutting her mouth not to make unnecessary reaction. Maybe it's because of what happen two days ago. She actually distance her self to me and me approaching her is really new.

"And I wanted to say sorry" I added but she interrupted me when she suddenly hugged me tightly

She even jump like a kid while still holding me, so I felt dizzy because of it.

"Ella!" I exclaimed as I pushed her away

She laugh like crazy and she snaked her both arms around my arm. My ghad! She's acting like a 10 years old kid.

"So are we friends now?" She excitedly inquire

I rolled my eyes and sighed. I shouldn't say sorry to her.

"Just acquaintance" I answered shortly

"Sound so sad. But atleast we're okay and good now right?"

I disgustingly move away from her. Who say's were good? Were just acquainted nothing more nothing less

"Don't assume too much. Your still a stranger to me"

She just pouted her lips and annoyingly giggle beside me.

"So, what's your business in Xeverin? Don't tell me your going to-"

"No. I just need to return something" I cut her off not letting her voice out what's on her mind

"Gosh! I thought you wanted to watch their battle of the bands" she pouted

She look disappointed but she's smiling widely to me. Do I look like someone who's interested with those things? I'm actually wondering right now why I'm doing this.

I look at my wrist watch to check the time before I tie my long black hair.

"Let's go, I need to go home early"

She cheerfully nod her head and walk together outside the school. I suggested that we should ride a public transportation but she won't agree so I just let her dragged me towards her car. I know I can't force her because she's not used with those things. Ella Marie Jimenez is from a wealthy family. If I remember it right, her mother is a famous actress before while her father is a politician.

"So what are you going to return?" She cheekily while we're here inside the car

I move my eyes around in a circle when I remember the thing that I need to return and I pulled it out on the pocket of my pants and handed it to her. Her eyes widened followed by her loud squeal. Both I and the driver are surprised because of her overrated reaction.

"OMG! OMG CAM!" She chant like crazy

I blink my eyes for how many times and gripping the strap of my bag tightly. What the hell happen to her?

I glance her driver and his shaking his head. Of course, his startled. Who wouldn't right? I sighed and lean on my seat and look at her again.

"You look disturbing" I said plainly not giving her a chance to explain what's with her reaction

I'm not interested to know so why would I ask?

"Omyghad! Why are you- OMG how come you had this? Gosh! I'm hyperventilating!"

She's using her hand to calm herself

Ella is really like this. As what she said 'I likes handsome' her word not mine.

"I just accidentally found it" I said eyeing the identification card I gave him

It's a haft lie because I didn't just found it anywhere. The owner gave it to me with no valid reason. I actually throw it, unfortunately my conscience is bugging me so yeah.

"This is so wow! I can't believe that I'm holding Alci's ID like this" she happily scream

I raised my eyebrow again and I glance the ID. Maybe that's the guy he like? The guy who bump me on the coffee shop. I snorted when I remember it again because that scenario is really annoying.

"Just a piece of advice, his not an ideal type. Aside from having a defective eyes, his brain is also not stable" I utter remembering the second time we cross our path together

"That so rude Cam! Seviro Alcinous Castaldi is a total package. Handsome face, witty brain and oh so hot body! And his a Castaldi !" She blurt out quoting the 'Castaldi ' word

And all I could do to hold my gaze on her. I don't know what to say, because honestly I'm not expecting her to react like this.

"But him being a Castaldi is actually too much . Ghad Cami, if you just know " she added sounding so overrated

I heard her driver laughed. I bet he really get used to her craziness.

"I do not want to know" I reply and the car stop

I flinch when Ella suddenly hit my shoulder and shaking her hands. My eyes narrowed and sighed deeply trying to extend my understanding and patience. I ask her to accompany me so I should be patient with her.

"Gosh Cami! I suddenly wanted to go inside and watch Alci" she cry out

I didn't answer her and just open the door beside me. I stop for a while and roamed my eyes around. I didn't expect that Xeverin University is just a few meters away from Emillia East.

"Cam! You didn't wait for me!" I heard Ella shout

I just look at Ella for a seconds and I continue walking towards the guard house. I pressed my lips together when I felt those stares coming from Xeverinian students. Staring is rude right? So why staring me then? I mentally rolled my eyes because of my sarcastic thought.

Ella followed me from behind as I walk towards the guard, but before I could say a word Ella pulled my hand making me stop.

"What?" I irritatingly mouthed

"Can I take a picture? " she query

My eyes narrowed and confusingly stared at her.

"Alci's ID card" she said acting cute in front of me

I scratch my right cheek and handed her the ID. Her smile widened but I didn't say a word. I just wander my gaze around and I notice those Xeverians walking inside the XU.

Is it because of the Battle of the Bands that Ella mention?

"Here! Thank you so much Cami" she said sweetly

"Lower down your voic" I said and continue to walk near the guard.

I was about to speak but Ella interrupted me and talk first.

"Excuse !" she actively greeted the two security guard

They both smile and ask Ella so she look at me and smile before she answer.

"My friend found an ID ans we're just going to return it"

"No one report about the lost ID, but thank you. Filled this up Ma'am" the guard said and handed us a paper

I filled up the form but I didn't gave all my informations.

"What's the name on the ID Ma'am?" the other guard ask

"Seviro-"

"Your already here yet your asking someone to gave it to me"

I pause on my track when I heard that familiar voice behind me. I wanted to rolled my eyes when I heard Ella gasped beside me. I really shouldn't return this.

I sighed and I turn around. I'm not surprise when I was greeted by his arrogant smirk. I can now clearly saw his face especially the piercing on the corner of his lips.

"You can gave it to me personally Cami, just like how I willingly gave it to you that night" he said coolly with a coy smile on his face

I raised my eyebrow showing him my displease reaction. His talking to me as if we're close . And I don't know if his really playful or he is just plain annoying.

I tilted my head and transfixed my gaze on him. His wearing a white printed shirt and ripped jeans. Ripped jeans in school? Just wow.

"So this is your plan" I stated

I'm not surprise anymore when I heard him chuckle. Can I curse him?

"Am I interesting to you now?" He ask with a playful smirk on his lips looking so pleased of what he did

"No. Not even a bit"
