Questioner

Alexander looked at Jennifer's lazy figure and couldn't help but admire his masterpiece.

Fortunately, he had already immortalized the view earlier with the home camera.

Perhaps, feeling his intense gaze, the girl moved to reposition herself and notice the glare of the sun from the curtained window.

"Morning." Alexander closed in on the woken lass and kissed her lips.

After a brief entanglement, she saw the time from the clock and grumbled. "Why didn't you wake me up with you?"

"You know why?" Alexander gave her a 'you know what I mean' look.

"Of course, I know why?" She pouted as she reminisced about their craziness and sat up. "You should know I need to leave at the same time as you guys. I don't want your grandfather to be delayed with his tasks because she has to wait for me to get ready and leave."

"No worries there. I already got that covered." He smiled in understanding while she questioned. "How?"

"You just don't need to leave." Alexander simply said while pushing her back to lie down. "My grandfather already left and you'll probably be the woman of the house. That's a heavy responsibility, you know."

"I'm flattered but I have things to tend to and besides..." Jennifer reasoned but his repeated 'you know what I mean' look made her quiet down. She wasn't feeling it but that was because she was too tired to do so.

"It's all your fault." She could only resign her fate but she also realized her situation and said in panic. "But wouldn't that mean that I wouldn't be able to leave until tomorrow!"

"What's the problem with that?" Alexander asked with a knowing grin.

"You know what I mean." Jennifer didn't go for the look but mentioned it.

Her being responsible for the house meant she can't haphazardly leave without either Creed returning first.

Knowing the earlier end of the school period, Jennifer knew that this boyfriend of hers would be the one to go home first.

But given their less than three days date record, his natural instinct would be to pounce at her.

To pounce at her meant that was she is resting for would be pointless as it can only charge up to meet his abundant needs.

Alexander evilly smiled at her while hapless Jennifer could only roll her eyes and frustratingly said. "Make sure to lock up when you go. I don't have the energy yet to send you off like a dutiful girlfriend."

"I know you don't have the energy. That's why I prepared this." Amused at her antic, he took the breakfast he prepared for her at the side and neared it to her for a reasonable breakfast in bed. "Eat up so you'll have the charge you'll need for the incoming night."

"At least you're a little bit thoughtful." She saw him off while munching on scrambled eggs. She knew that she had to overpower him to escape his prison of lust.

Of course, she knew that he was only joking around insinuating that he would go crazy with her body again.

She vowed to overpower him because she felt that all the while they were in bed, she lost her initiative as the older one in the relationship.

Before she leaves for her responsibilities, she had to give him an impactful surprise to keep around while she is away.

School went on as always. At least that is what Alexander hoped it would be. Obviously, he hadn't taken into account the tabloid gossip about him and Jennifer.

A small crowd was gathering by the school premises and he felt an impending headache coming along.

While the neighborhood was a safe zone due to the neighborhood association's collective safety strategy and old Sullivan's machinations, his school was where children could be bribed by reporters who make money from publicizing the private matters of celebrities.

Thankfully, Alexander maneuvered through the mess with mastery while his school management was in between smiling and crying.

They are getting a lot of publicity to raise their prestige but they also had to worry about the suspicious characters that might do something untoward to the students in the midst of the mess.

To ease their worries, the gossip columnists reigned themselves as their inside scoopers were already in place.

Throughout the school day, Alexander had to answer questions from random kids he hadn't interacted with.

Even their English teacher joined in the fun. When discussing Hercules, the topic of saving the damsel in distress was thrown into him.

In any case, it wasn't as worse as he thought it would be.

Even though he had a gossip momentum due to the It Follows premiere, with all of its savior scenarios and hidden powerhouse confrontation, the rest of society was much more focused on the award-winning hopefuls.

March was the month of little golden man Oscar. The nominees were going full force with their exposure to gain momentum.

Even though he and Jennifer were eye-catching, they were quickly set aside for a much fresher eyecatcher.

All's well and all but the questions he had answered had already been circulated in school, much to the dismay of those who cared for it.

One question-and-answer scenario he had done, goes as follows:

"Creed, did you really save that Jennifer girl from despicable goons?"

"If you consider the people that spread that news as the despicable goons then the answer is Yes." Alexander replied while lazing on his desk to also recuperate from his Sunday escapades.

"That's quite impressive." The questioner exclaimed but had his follow-up question. "Then, did she fall for you like some cheesy Disney princess movie?"

"I don't know. We separated ways when the trouble was gone." Alexander had to throw the public off track and this classmate of his is the perfect medium.

"Oh." The questioner was disappointed but he still had a few dollars to earn, so he moved on to the next question that the camera guys told him to ask. "What do you think of that Jennifer girl? Would you consider dating her?"

"I think she's pretty. Also, I'm too young to consider dating but I'd probably answer again with a Yes." Alexander was now experimenting with media confrontation. As for how they'd deal with this answer of truth and false, that's for them to decide.

As for the dismayed at the school, it was his school admirers that branded Jennifer Connelly as an old bitch that seduced him.
