Bab 62: Mr. and Ms. Intramurals 2

"Jaxith?" the emcee gave the microphone to Jaxith after Lavalee answered

"Ten years from now, I see myself successfully building a business empire and happy with my own family," Jaxith said and returned the microphone

"Judges, make your choices." The emcee said

"It seems that our board of judges is having a hard time deciding who to choose!" the emcee said because the board of judges is actively discussing and conversing

After a while, the head of the judges stood up so the emcee gave her the microphone.

"Candidates thirteen, thirty, thirty-four, thirty-six, and nineteen," she called and the mentioned candidates stepped forward

"Congratulations, you're in the top five," The head of the judges said and the uncalled candidates headed to the backstage

"Candidates, you may change into your casual wear." The emcee said so they went back to their dressing rooms

Lavalee was able to change into her casual wear, same with Jaxith since they are used with quick changing. They used to do it in missions so they are trained by experience in changing into different clothes quickly.

After dressing up, Jess styled Lavalee's hair and then went out to put foundation powder in Jaxith's face. While waiting, Lavalee sat beside Jace who is carrying Mnemosyne.

"What time is it?" She asked Jace

"Quarter to eleven in the evening," Jace replied

"I'm bored, I want to go home," Lavalee said while leaning on her seat

The remaining girl candidates, apart from Lavalee, approached the two.

"Hi!" the other one greeted

"Hello," Lavalee said and stood up straight

"Your gown's beautiful," the other one complimented Lavalee

"Thank you, you don't look bad yourself," Lavalee replied with a sweet smile

'What are they here for?' Lavalee thought, still not removing her smile from her lips

The other girl candidates looked at Jace when he stood up, he looked at Lavalee and showed his ringing phone to Lavalee. She saw the name 'Mom' on the caller ID so she smiled.

"Go ahead," Lavalee said and Jace left after placing Mnemosyne on the chair

"Is that guy your boyfriend?" another one asked and Lavalee was a little surprised before she realized that the girls must've approached her to ask that

"Oh, no, we're not in that kind of relationship," Lavalee said while smiling and elegantly shaking her head

' So, they like Dreice.' She said while watching the girls smile hopefully

'They liked the wrong person though. I don't think Dreice will even give a damn about them.' Lavalee thought

A sound coming from behind her took her attention and she saw Mnemosyne jumping down the chair, the tiger is looking sideways then walking up to Lavalee. It rubbed its head on Lavalee so Lavalee sat down to carry her before standing up again.

The other girl candidates seemed surprised and terrified when they saw Mnemosyne.

"Who are you looking for, huh, Mne?" Lavalee said while carrying Mnemosyne

"Uh, is that your pet?" the other one asked and Lavalee smiled before nodding

"This is Mnemosyne," she said and lifted Mnemosyne's paw to wave

"I-it looks like a tiger," the other one said but Lavalee didn't get to reply because a facilitator came and told them to get ready and to stand by.

Lavalee placed Mnemosyne on the chair and then walked beside Jaxith who was in a line.

"Where is Jace?" Jaxith asked Lavalee who gave him a confused stare after hearing his question

"He's talking to someone," Lavalee still replied

When the facilitator called them up to say that it was their turn, Lavalee and Jaxith climbed up the stage. They did short modeling before standing beside the other top five candidates.

When the top five were completed, the emcee went up the stage to announce the different awards and the Mr. and Ms. Intramurals.

"For the Mr. and Ms. Early Bird, congratulations, candidates number nineteen!" the emcee announced and Jaxith subtly nudged Lavalee

"It's because your late," Jaxith teased her and Lavalee chuckled

"Then, I'm sorry~" Lavalee replied in a teasing manner

"For best in Swimwear, congratulations, candidates number thirteen!" Lavalee and Jaxith went in front and the judges gave them a sash for the 'Best in Swimwear' award

"For best in Catwalk, congratulations, candidates number thirteen!" Lavalee and Jaxith were just about to leave but since they were called again, they chose to stay and another sash was placed on them.

"Can you guess who got the Best in Talent award?" the emcee asked

"I can guess," Jaxith kiddingly whispered to Lavalee

"Not that I can't, Jax," Lavalee replied while smiling

"These awards shouldn't have a cash prize, you're already rich," Jaxith kidded and Lavalee shook her head

He is talking about the other awards they won apart from the Best in Swimwear award. Lavalee and Jaxith also got the award for Mister and Miss Congeniality, Best in Sportswear, Best in Casual Wear, and Sweetest Pair.

"Well, their talent is very amazing and interesting so there's no doubt that they'll be winning this award." The emcee added

"Congratulations, candidates number thirteen!"

"This is it! Are you excited to know who's the Mr. and Ms. Intrams for this year?" the emcee asked and everyone cheered

"For the third runner-up, congratulations, candidates number thirty!" the pair of contestants from a city college in Lagresch went forward

"For the second runner-up, Congratulations, candidates number thirty-four!"

The tension is growing as three candidates are left to fight for the first runner-up and the crown of Mr. and Ms. Intramurals. Contestant #36 was crowned as the first runner up so Lavalee, Jaxith, and another pair are the only choices left.

"And to crown this year's Mr. and Ms. Intramurals, let us call on the Division Head of the Department of Education in Lagresch and the city Mayor of Tagreesha," the emcee announced and a middle-aged man went up the stage along with a man who is in his early forties

"This year's Mister and Miss Intramurals are Candidates number…" the sound of drum rolls echoed as the

"Thirteen!" with that the sound of confetti popping echoed on the stage and the candidates with the said number started walking up to the center of the stage

A silver crown was placed on Lavalee's head while a yellow crown was placed on Jaxith's head. They were both given a scepter, which they could keep as they will be passing the crown next year.

"Congratulations, our dearest candidates." The judges said and the candidates bowed

"Wow, our Mister and Miss Intramurals this year look like real royalties." The emcee commented, which made Jaxith and Lavalee chuckle.

'If only they knew,' those who knew Lavalee's royal status in the underground thought.

Lavalee is indeed a princess, a princess from a kingdom where killing is the only way to stay alive. After the short messages, they were able to go back backstage, in there, Lavalee and Jaxith were interviewed and congratulated by the other candidates.

"Great job," Jace told Lavalee and the latter smiled

"Let me carry that," Jace said and took the huge bouquet Lavalee is holding.

"Thanks, Dreice," Lavalee replied before carrying Mnemosyne who circled her as if asking to be carried.

"How sweet, Ms. Intramurals," The emcee from the recent Mr. and Ms. Intramurals said

This comment of his made Lavalee and Jace look at her, Lavalee smiled at him while caressing Mnemosyne

"Where is the Mister Intramurals?" the former emcee asked

"I think he's with the rest," Lavalee said and like a magic word that summons her friends, Irene, Jess, Chelsea, Icarus, Jaxith, Hendrix, Elijah, Caspian, and Ethan arrived where they are

"Congrats," The guys congratulated Lavalee and Jaxith

"If you don't mind me asking, Jaxith and Valerie, are you two in a relationship?" the former emcee asked and the rest of the group muffled a laugh

"No, she's not my girlfriend but I have one," Jaxith answered

"No, Jaxith's my best friend and you don't date your best friend romantically," Lavalee answered with a chuckle

"Oh, that explains the closeness," he commented then he pointed at Jace

"Perhaps that guy behind you is your boyfriend?" the former emcee asked and they went silent

They exchanged glances, as if an unspoken rule has been broken, although they, themselves, are curious about how Lavalee and Jace will answer.

Lavalee maintained her smile and glanced at Jace, who was also waiting for her to answer, before shaking her head.

"We're not in that kind of relationship." She replied

The former emcee seems skeptical of her answer and wants to pry more, but then, Mrs. Conchia arrived.

"Excuse me, my students need to rest too." Mrs. Conchia said and they went to the van

Jace, Lavalee, Chelsea, Irene, and Jess decided to ride in Jace's car because the van is currently packed with trophies from the event and they can no longer sit in the backseat where they're supposed to sit. Hendrix, Icarus, Elijah, Jaxith, and Ethan squeezed themselves in the remaining space in the van while Caspian sat on the passenger seat.
