Chapter 25
Leigh-Ann’s POV
Throughout the drive to school, I kept wondering if Kael didn’t demand the coffee. I mean, he called me, right? Or… could it be Kenver? Was it him that planned everything up?Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
I had him as my suspect because strangely, he was out there last night. Another thing was what he had said to me.
Finally, we arrived at school and I put a scarf over my head and tied it down my chin to cover part of my face.
The Brothers got out as usual while the students drooled and admired all they wanted. Durh, jobless beings.
I made to walk off when Stiles called out to me.
“Be careful Leigh. Remember to come over to the Brothers cafeteria during lunch hours or if you want, I could come and get you”
I scoffed and looked off, then back to him “Hello! Is that a reminder? How on earth do you think I’ll forget after what Kael did at the School’s Cafeteria yesterday?”
He chuckled a bit and adjusted his bag on his shoulder. He did look cute. Another point to note.
“I don’t just want you getting into more trouble” He muttered, making me frown. He’s a whole caring person.
“Come be my guardian then” I joked and walked off while he chuckled behind me.
Inside the school was crowded with lots of students. Some chatted in pairs, others rushed around while some tried to get an assignment done but in the midst of all these, I wished I wouldn’t bump into anyone. I walked past a group of girls who were talking and laughing.
“Jeez, he fucks like a Greek god” One of them squealed.
“You never knew? He fucks like a monster” Another added while the rest giggled.
“So we’ll, who’s next huh?”
“It should be me. I had picked the next number, 2021”
“2021? Are you fucking kidding me?”
“So… you’re the number two thousand and twenty-one girl he’s gonna fuck”
“Jeez, he’s fucked two thousand and twenty-one girls” Another gushed.
“But even then, I need another number. Gosh, Quavo’s such a killer”
As I walked off, I rolled my eyes. Can you imagine that huh? Like, they were so happy to spread their legs for someone who has slept with over a thousand girls, Yeow! They had no shame talking about it.
I walked into the hallway which was filled with lots of lockers. Students stood around, trying to get one thing or the other so I just walked up to mine.
As I opened it, I just wished classes would start in earnest. I took out my notepad and textbook then locked up the locker before walking off. Everywhere was damn noisy.
I came across five handsome boys in sportswear with the one in the middle, holding a ball. He winked at me and I looked off immediately. Why do guys do that?
I climbed up the stairs with my head bent as I wasn’t ready to talk to anyone. What am I even saying? No one even uttered a word to me and I felt so thankful for that. Looks like they’ve all forgotten the incident at the Cafeteria with one of the Brothers.
As I was lost in thoughts, boom, I bumped into someone. I didn’t look up but I figured it was a guy due to the chains on his trousers and his cool sneakers. His phone fell off alongside my books and we bent together to pick them up.
“Am sorry” I muttered dryly and stood up. When he didn’t respond, I walked off but then, I heard him from behind.
“Are you okay?” I didn’t turn to look at him, I didn’t want to, so I just backed him instead.
“Am fine”
“I can tell you’re lying,” He said and I felt him walk up from behind. “Just yesterday I saw you, you looked Snowwhite but today… You look like rotten tomatoes”
Oh, rotten tomatoes indeed. Why does it feel like everyone knows me already huh? I turned to face him and OMG, He looked… So handsome. He was dressed in red and had chains on his neck. He also wore a black hat which was covered with gold dangling chains and different rings on his fingers.
“Are you okay?” He asked, jerking me back to reality.
“Yeah” I answered and nodded, not knowing what else to say. He offered his hand and I figured he wanted me to take it, which I did. Damn, why wouldn’t I? He meant any harm.
A small group of students had stopped by to watch while others took out their phones to videos of us and I wondered why. Surprisingly, he turned my hand to the side as if checking for something but then, he smiled.
“Am Quavo”
The name resounded in my head and immediately, I recalled where I had heard it from. Could he be the guy those girls were talking about? I withdrew my hand from his at once and stepped backward while he smirked.
“You’re one of the newbies,” He said and tucked both hands in his pocket then looked at me from head to toe. “Nice hair, lovely eyes… perfect body”
I flinched and took another step backward. What the actual fuck is he doing? “I’ll get to see you soon” He added with a smirk then turned and walked off.
Huh? Wha… what the fuck was that? Someone ran up to me from behind.
“Holy fucker Leigh!” Ariana exclaimed then turned to look at the guy who had ascended the stairs already “That was wonderful”
Huh, what’s she even talking about? “OMG, come on, let’s go” She gushed and dragged me with her. She took me to a large room with closets and I figured it was one of the dressing rooms.
“Hey, how did you do that?” She asked happily, staring into my face.
“Do what?”
“Oh come on. Don’t tell me you don’t fucking know him. Gosh, he really did talk to you. I mean he held your hand.” She exclaimed and clasped her hands together. Okay, guys, what’s she talking about? She paused and looked at me, obviously noticing I didn’t get any of what she was saying.
“My God, that’s Quavo,” She said and came to sit beside me “One of the Kings of CamBridge High”
I rolled my eyes and then stood up. Like, who cared about the cock and bulls anyway?
“Hey, I’m sorry if I’m pissing you off but…” She said and stood up too “That rarely happens. Quavo is a real mean, arrogant and grumpy fellow. Am starting to wonder if you’re an angel. First, it was Daggers, And now, Quavo. Trust me, hun, there’s gonna be war”

I didn’t even set my mind to whatever Ariana had said. I’m sure she’s one of those girls wishing to get his number, that’s if she hasn’t gotten one already.
Can you imagine him fucking two thousand and twenty-one girls in CamBridge High? Jeez, he’s a real monster.
I was tryna arrange my books on my desk when someone suddenly hit it, making it fall off along with my books.
Everyone started laughing.
“Oops, my bad!” I turned at once and caught Ceeara and her minions walking away. They were laughing as well.
“Shake it off babe, there’s gonna be more of that” Ariana said and helped with picking up my books. I felt so angry at the moment. How dare she?
“One of the Brothers called you out yesterday. Omg, it was you!” One of the students squealed, startling me.
“Why did he call you?”
“What are you to him, his girlfriend? I bet that isn’t possible” Another added with an eye roll.
“What did he say to you?”
“Did he touch you?”
The questions kept coming and soon I was crowded. While most of them wanted to be friends with me because of the Brothers, others threw shades and hated me instantly.
“She’s not even pretty”
“Such a dummy with stupid eyes”
“And Yeow! What are those reddish spots on her skin?”
” Who knows, maybe she’s just one of the toys they bully whenever they want. So sad”
And with that, they started laughing, and not being able to take it anymore, so I ran out of the class.

During lunch hours, I rushed over to the Brothers Cafeteria to avoid being late and as expected, none of them was on the seat.
After what seemed like fifteen minutes, they came up and took their seat but not without a cold stare from Kenver. I stared back with so much hate in my eyes. I’m just trying not to believe that he was the one behind everything that happened earlier this morning.
“Toothless kitten” He drawled and smirked evilly before taking his seat. That bastard son of the devil. I felt like strangling him, urgh!
