26 Chapter 20: I Give Up

R:VCP | Chapter 20: I Give Up

Walking in a hallway of Skylarford University, a girl with silverish white hair, was walking briskly. Her cold indifferent face tinted with a slight blush.

Yes, you guessed it right. It is Luna.

'Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudgeeeeeee!!!! So embarrassing!!! Why did I blabbered about that, this and those!!?'

Luna who was walking briskly and scolding herself in her mind at the same time was literally embarrassed, especially when she remembered what she did yesterday.

Yes, it was already yesterday after that embarrassing (not) incident happened. When our beloved heterochromia guy, Alistair, gave our little adorable Luna his handmade bracelet.

Actually, Luna was already chill and cool when she arrived at the gate of the school. Already prep herself about the things and everything happened yesterday, and what to and not to forget... Especially that incident.

But who could've thought that just when Luna entered the school gates with a cold indifferent face, sign of Cupid's visit was eminent everywhere.

Luna: (・_・) Should I say fudge? Or should I say fudge!?

(凸(艹皿艹 ) )

Spring has once again come to all the people around and the thick smell of love is in the air once again

Luna: The pungent smell of people who's in love~. Yup, I really should have worn a mask.

(눈_눈)

Standing in the center of this "love epidemic" Luna was cold face.

(ー_ー )

A girl giving her chocolate and confessing to the guy she likes was in Luna's right side.

"I like you! Please accept me!"

Luna: (ー_ー|||) Do you need me as an audience? or do you need me as an audience?

"Okay, I accept."

In the other side on the other hand...

A guy kneeling and giving a girl his handmade craft accessory; paired with flowers and heart balloons.

"Can you date me, please?"

Luna: (´ᴖωᴖ # ) Should I pop that balloons for you? Or should I pop that balloons for you!?

"Un. Let's date."

And in front of her was a tooth aching PDA-ing couple hand in hand, side by side, sticking to each other walking to the pathway in a slow motion as if they were walking in the aisle!

(눈_눈)

Luna: Fudge! I've had enough!

（ノ♯｀△´）ノ~'┻━┻

Luna took a deep breath and decided to take another route.

She took a step back and turned her head around to retreat. But just exactly as Luna turned her head... a red haired fellow just timing-ly entered the gates.

Wearing the Skylarford University dark navy blue uniform was Alistair, looking clean, proper, and handsome. Indifferently ignoring everything he passed by and walking elegantly towards the University entrance.

'Sigh.. really deserving the status of being the [Hidden Capture Target] amazing!' Luna admiringly sighed in her mind.

'But, let's not talk about that for now... Especially that's not the issue here.'

'The issue?' Looking at Alistair with an inexplicable face.

'ohh... It's because, he's coming towards my location!' Luna panicked.

'Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudge. Fudgeeeeeee!! What do I do!!?'

Just as Luna's brain was processing a big amount of plans from A to Z.

Alistair, who was walking towards the University entrance just then saw Luna who was in a life and death mission of looking a plan from the file A to Z in her brain with all seriousness in her face, but sadly for her, she didn't know that her outward appearance depict a different picture...

Like a confused rabbit that was lost looking straight at its hunter with a pitiful look.

Alistair's unmatched eyes flickered with surprise, then he slightly smiled.

Luna who was the receiving end of that smile, her brain crashed, and warning bells went off. Panic filled Luna, seeing Alistair spotted her and all of her plans from A to Z was thrown out of her mind and only the most basic, concise, and direct action plan was left in her brain and that was....

Run!!! ᕕ(╯°□°)ᕗ

Luna turned her back and dashed straight to the University entrance without turning back. Memories of what happened yesterday came rushing to her head again.

' "Actually I really don't like...---" Luna who was endlessly blabbing her like and dislikes to the guy in front of her inevitably stopped.

As if realizing that 'some' big things that shouldn't have happened, happened. Dread filled her. Pitifully, Luna slowly raised her head and boom. Alistair's deadly smiling face that's beyond the attractiveness chart was soon in front of her. All of Luna's thoughts were thrown away. Only one word was left.

'Fudge!'

Seeing the frightened Luna, Alistair was helpless but still remained smiling and ushered Luna "Go on... "

Luna was ashamed and gnashed her teeth secretly. But in the next second she calmly lifted her head and smiled; with a seemingly regret in her tone Luna said.

"What a pity, well look at the time it's already-- oh no! I'm late! I'm truly late."

Luna then abruptly stood up, acting panic, and immediately explained while slowly retreating.

"I'm terribly sorry Mr. Alistair but I think I can't accompany you anymore. I'll be having a meeting with the Student Council today and I must and need to go there as soon as possible. Again I'm terribly sorry. Bye!" And as soon as the last word was spoken Luna disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Alistair look at the dashing Luna and chuckled helplessly. "Well then just let it be" '

See what happened!?

（ノ♯｀△´）ノ~'┻━┻

That's why I'm trying my best here, to not make an encounter with that heterochromia guy!

Walking briskly with a bowed head Luna tried her best not to stand out. Especially since it wasn't only that heterochromia guy she is running away from, there is also the Heroine and the other Villainesses.

Luna was about to make a turn but then she suddenly stopped and took a step back and hid in the shrubs near the school building's pillar.

'Ohhh... What is this~~ (o≖◡≖) '

Not far from where Luna was hiding, just at the end of the hallway, a small looking fountain can be found. And in front of the fountain a girl with a pink wavy hair was standing. Yup it's Belle! The Heroine.

"What is Belle doing here? Hmm.. why do I feel like I've forgotten something." Luna was still thinking hard about things when suddenly Luna heard foot steps coming from where she came from.

Oh fudge! Now, I remember! Isn't this where the next event will happen!? Fudge! If I remember correctly, in the game after making those handmade chocolate the Heroine needs to give it to the person she likes.

The Capture Target that she is most closed to and have more interaction will be the person who'll appear in this event. After the Heroine gives here handmade chocolate to that person that person in exchange will also give her, their own handmade crafts.

Oh, boi! Now this is happening Infront of me! In a live action at that, couldn't this get more any better!? Now I'm too excited~ but wait, Keke Keke *evil laughs* who will be the lucky Capture Target then hmmm.... *Knowing smile*

As Luna was getting more and more excited the eagerness and her shining, sparkling eyes couldn't be contained. Hiding in the bushes Luna was intently looking at the hallway she just came from.. waiting for the 'lucky Capture Target.

Luna: ٩(ര̀ᴗര́*) he's here! He's here! He's here! He's here!!!

As the footsteps was becoming more clearer and nearer. Luna was getting more and more unrestrained!

Luna: (ര̀ᴗര́*)√ Will it be Liam? No, it's Spade! No no no. Maybe it's Damon?? Argh!! No! It's obviously Jacob!!! Yes surely it's Jacob!! Omg! Fudge he's here!! He's here!! It's Ja--- Ah?

Luna: (⊙ˍ⊙) *blink* *blink* no, no, maybe I'm dreaming? Hahahaha. *Force laugh*

Luna was still in her denial state when she suddenly heard someone shouted.

"Oh, your finally here!" As Belle's charming sweet voice just disappeared. A heart rendering thunder struck Luna's head breaking all her excuses and denials.

Luna: Σ(°ロ°) *thunder.sfx*

Fudge.

What the fudge!!!

Luna couldn't understand what was happening to the world her head was spinning and she couldn't believe what she just saw, which now leads her to the state of disbelieving-ness, that even a sound of someone's upcoming footsteps wasn't even heard by her anymore.

•••

Alistair, after seeing Luna runaway was helpless. So when he was about to continue and go to class; he suddenly had an impulse of wanting to tease a certain rabbit and pet it. Which he felt ridiculous but still in the end. He still went and follow Luna to where she run into.

As Alistair was nearing the end of the hallway where there's a turn, Alistair had unknowingly run into an acquaintance.

"Mr. Aztec William, Good morning." Jacob greeted with a carefree handsome smile but his eyes was undeniably cold.

Alistair stop in his steps and look at Jacob coldly. "Just Alistair is fine."

Jacob just widen his smile more. "Oh okay, so then Your Highness Crown Prince Alistair, where are you headed? Hmm.." Jacob looked at where Alistair was facing when they saw each other and his eyes suddenly darken. "Oh. Are you going to the Rose Garden Fountain Your Highness?" Jacob's voice has noticeably have become more chillingly cold. "What for? You're meeting someone there."

Alistair continued looking at Jacob without answering. And as soon as Jacob was done talking, Alistair just lifted a corner of lips, and with a cold smile answered. "It's none of your business." And with that he continued to walk ahead. Leaving the darken faced Jacob.

But after just a second Jacob continued to also walk ahead and just a meter away from Alistair. Both headed on the same direction.

Belle on the other hand was planning to have a talk with Jacob. She decided to finally talk to this guy and make some things clear to him. But Belle didn't want anyone to see them talk and be in the same place where people can see. Especially since she doesn't want any misunderstanding.

More importantly, Belle doesn't want the girls to misunderstand her. Since Belle already told them: Dahlia, Ivy, and Camille that she doesn't have any interest in those guys. And besides with the students here in this school likes to make malicious and false rumors, if something really comes up it'll be a big problem.

Especially since Jacob and Luna are engaged and Belle doesn't want anyone to misunderstand. So, Belle decided not to make an appointment with Jacob in advance but rather just wait for him in a place where many people don't come often and ambush him.

Belle wasn't afraid that Jacob won't come or he won't know where the place is... Because she knows that Jacob will come no matter what. How is she confident in this? Well.. it's because Jacob have been stalking her for months already! And where she goes and hide will immediately be located by him with no problem.

So that's why she knows that even without sending anything to Jacob. Jacob will come, so she just needs to wait. And so, when she raised her head and saw a different person appeared, she was surprised for a moment but then calmed down when he saw Jacob was just behind that person.

That person didn't even glanced at her and just directly went to the hall's pillar. Belle decided to just forget about that person first and called out Jacob. Jacob also saw Belle and Jacob's mood which was sour awhile ago was now once again fresh and glowing and directly went towards Belle.

Both was looking at each other that they didn't even notice that person, Alistair, who was supposed to be heading to the hall's pillar suddenly stopped in a near shrub where a silver haired girl was hiding and was squatting.

Back to Luna...

Luna was still inside her head. Still trying to comprehend, and processing the things she saw and found out! That she didn't even notice a certain red haired, heterochromia guy was already squatting along with her in the shrub.

A.lis.tair. That Alistair! The heterochromia guy who is actually the Hidden Capture Target was actually the person the Heroine chose!??

Why didn't I know!?

Didn't the Heroine interacted more often with the Main Capture Target, Jacob and the other Capture Targets?!?

Then why was the person who arrived was Alistair and not them!?

More importantly, when and where the heck did Alistair this Hidden Capture Target and the Heroine meet!?

Why didn't I know any of it?

When did the two know each other?

Where did they first meet?

Hmmm....

Curses!! If only I didn't die early, I could have known the event!

Now I really don't even have a clue about their events together..

How can i stop it then!?

Wait, why am I stopping it again?

Oh yeah, it's because I don't ship him with the Heroine!!!

Hmm.. that's right. That's right. That's the truth... It's because I don't ship them and it's not because of other reasons. Un. Un. *Nods nods*

But really... That heterochromia guy... Why did he come?

Hmmm.....

Annoying.

Argh!!!! Ahh!! Really annoying!

It was supposed to be Jacob! Now look, he ruined my ship...!

And what the heck is he here for!?

Didn't he.. didn't he.. didn't he, didn't he gave off his handmade bracelet already!!!?

So, why the heck is he here participating in this event then!?

Hmm.....

Hmm....

Hhhmmmmmmm...

Argh! Simply too annoying!!!

Grrr!!

So don't tell me this bracelet is fake!?

He made two?

Fudge! Then why gave me one then!?

Why did he forced me to accept this then!?

Then why...

Why..

....Why did he ate my handmade chocolate then...?

He...

He..

He is really annoying!

He is really a no good!

A bad guy!

Not suitable for the Heroine!

A ship wrecker!

An annoying guy who.. who... Who introduced himself with a one name only!

An annoying guy who.. who.. who doesn't have the right to be the Hidden Capture Target!! Not even that mysterious!

An annoying guy who.. who.. who.. who's hair is like a rambutan!! So red that.. that.. that even ants wants to bite it off and bring along with them to burry in their ant hill!!!

An annoying guy who.. who.. who is like a red lollipop that is so red that no one would even wants to try it anymore in fear that their lips might turn super red and.. and.. and.. errr.. explode!! Yup, explode!! Explode because.. because.. because it's spicy! Yes. Yes. Yes.. hmm.. that's it.

That guy is really a one heck of annoying guy indeed!

He needs to be punished and beaten up for being annoying!

Hmmm... *Nods to herself* indeed. Indeed. Must be punished.

Alistair who was observing Luna's ever changing expression was amused. Starting with her disbelieving expression, to her thoughtfulness, then her being infuriated, then agitated, then denial, then to her sour face, to her sulking gloomily, then to her sudden anger, then to her face showing a sudden realization, to her sudden regret, then to her self assurance, and finally to her furious face and expression of where she is gritting her teeth, and with the expression that was like she can't wait to jump and shred someone to pieces.

Alistair couldn't help himself anymore seeing this cute assorted and rich expression of a girl who always wears a mask, who is known by all as a queen of ice, an emotionless, and indifferent girl... But now showing this rich expression and her different side that no one have seen before.

Alistair neared Luna, leaning his head near Luna's cute little ears Alistair softly chuckles and asked., "Who made you angry Miss Luna~ hmm?"

Then at that moment every brain cells working hard inside Luna's brain all suddenly stopped working. The only thing Luna can hear at that moment then was...

"Who made you angry Ms. Luna~ hmm?"

"Who made you angry hmm?"

"Ms. Luna~ hmm?"

"Ms.? Hmm?"

"Luna? Hmm?"

"Luna? Hmm? Hmm?"

"Hmm?"

Luna: (⊙ˍ⊙) .....hmm?

Luna then realizes something is definitely wrong here. And so she slowly and stiffly turn her head to her side where she think she heard that low voice and heart fluttering chuckle came from...

Luna: (_) *turns*

Luna: (_) *looks up*

Alistair: (´ᴖωᴖ｀)

Luna: (o;TωT)o
