Chapter 34: Unexpected PDA!

Alex Bayly ran out of the staff building and headed straight towards the infirmary. The speed with which she dashed out left everyone in shock.

She ran straight to the infirmary at top speed. By the time she got outside the infirmary, she saw the ambulance being closed, and inside were the unconscious Cassandra Dean and Azrael Herrington who sat beside her.

As soon as she got there she managed to let out a word while she was panting heavily.

"Stoooopppp" she started to wheeze as she tried to catch her breath.

"Don't you need a teacher to supervise things? ... " ~Wheeze~ "What if something were to happen to both students...," ~Wheeze~ "who is going stand up for them?"

Alex Bayly was Wheezing and breathing heavily as she spoke. The Nurse who was closing the ambulance didn't know how to respond to that.

"Urrrrhhhh" the Nurse parted her lips slightly in confusion not knowing what to say, after a while of being unable to come up with a proper response or a counter, she opened the ambulance for Alex Bayly to join Azrael Herrington and the unconscious Cassandra Dean.

As the backdoor which was also the boot door of the ambulance was opened, Azrael Herrington saw the reason why his heart was racing a few seconds earlier.

Without knowing she was there, he felt like something was triggering his emotions, his heart was racing, and he felt like he was feeling apprehensive and perplexed without actually having those feelings. It was a very confusing maelstrom of emotions that felt distant yet within touch.

"Miss Alex, what are you doing here..." Azrael asked in confusion. He would have called her by her name alone as he usually does, but they were in school so he needed to maintain a level of respect and use honorifics in addressing her.

Alex Bayly went in and sat down opposite him without saying a word as the ambulance got on the road and started to drive toward the hospital.

Apart from the driver who was in front, only Alex Bayly and Azrael Herrington were in the ambulance beside the unconscious Cassandra Dean.

Alex looked at Azrael and looked away. Azrael could sense that she wasn't happy with him, but he couldn't tell what he did wrong.

'What did I do wrong?' He started to analyze his deeds in his mind, 'I didn't get to apologize for making her late, maybe that is why she is angry with me, but in that case, why is she choosing to follow me to the hospital...?'

Azrael couldn't figure it out no matter how much he tried. As his thoughts got more and more intense, Alex Bayly spoke to the driver, "Driver, How much longer till we get to the hospital..?"

"We will be there in 20 minutes, traffic is good today" The driver responded.

Azrael was shocked at how she ignored him. He wanted to speak but he decided to wait till when they were alone.

The Journey to the hospital was quiet, not a single word was exchanged between them. The driver was the only one who could be heard humming away a song he didn't know very well.

His humming could be heard by everyone present. Azrael and Alex had to endure the persistent and terrible Humming till they got to the hospital.

As soon as the ambulance bus arrived in front of the hospital, Alex Bayly rushed out of the bus as if to say, 'I've had enough of that annoying humming'

Azrael went ahead and tried to carry Cassandra from the place she lay, and he was able to singlehandedly carry her into the hospital.

Alex stood by the side, following them and watching Azrael as he carried Cassandra in. She felt very jealous, but she couldn't voice her dissatisfaction with seeing Azrael carrying her in.

As Azrael carried her in, the nurses ran helter-skelter to get a mobile stretcher for Cassandra to lie on and carry her in to be examined and treated.

They recognized her as the proprietor's daughter and they had to give her immediate attention. because of her influential father.

As Cassandra was being dragged in, Alex grabbed the hand of Azrael and pulled him outside to a private spot.

The hospital was the same hospital they had come to before, so, some of the nurses were familiar with them.

As they saw Alex Bayly dragging Azrael Herrington outside, they smiled and gossiped amongst themselves.

"This lovely couple have come again today... They are so adorable..."

"That guy is wearing a school uniform, is he a student perchance... and the woman, a teacher..., ?"

"This keeps getting juicier and juicer.."

"Look at the way she grabbed him... She is going to come back here and start complaining about back pain after a few days..." ~ giggles~

While the nurses gossiped and giggled amongst themselves, Alex and Azrael were alone outside the hospital by a side where no one could see.

"Is the rumor true Azrael... Are you now dating Cassandra...?" Alex Bayly asked with a frown.

"What?! No... of course not... I only..."Azrael couldn't help but be scared of the misunderstanding as he responded.

"The others claimed you even put yourself on the line to save her, are you also a two-timer like Damien? You tell me a sweet thing like me being your soul mate then you go and start falling for the Proprietor's daughter... is that it?" Alex Bayly was speaking from the viewpoint of extreme and unbridled jealousy.

Azrael couldn't help but start to sweat. He now understood why Alex was angry with him. It's because she felt jealous.

'But she doesn't even acknowledge my love, why is she so jealous now...' He thought as he watched her rant.

Azrael suddenly reached out with his arms and placed them around Alex's neck, and before she knew what was going on, Azrael had planted a quick and gentle kiss on her lips. He quickly pulled back and spoke.

"I would never love another the way I love you, you're my soul mate, my lover, and the only woman who owns my heart... I will be going inside now in case you decide to slap me for kissing you...' Azrael hurried out of Alex's face and entered the hospital.

Alex stood there with her mouth wide open. She didn't even move muscle. She was like a person who had been electrocuted. Her mind was a mess.

She lifted her right hand and touched her lips as she started to relive the moment. Her emotions were in disarray.

Alex started to relive the moment over and over again and the words he said. " I would never love another the way I love you... you're my soul mate..." As she thought of that, her mind felt like it had entered a new realm.

She smiled sheepishly without realizing it, and a new kind of joy filled her soul until a thought came to her mind, 'Azrael just kissed you... You're supposed to be his teacher, what if someone saw you two, or if he told his friends...?'

"Shit..." Alex Bayly said with an undertone as she turned towards the door...
