"hahaha,come on,I was just kidding, here,get up first,what can I get you?" Alex laughed awkwardly and grabbed Becky's hands, pulling her up from the floor. He even asked what he could offer when he was very much aware that they had practically nothing to entertain guests in their room.
Becky sat back on the chair and looked intently at Alex, waiting if he still had any other way to destroy the friendly atmosphere he was barely building by himself.
Seeing that he was not planning on doing such,she decided to take the lead.
"I came by to thank you for what you did at the cafeteria earlier,am really grateful and you too,thank you"she said and also turned to Ken, showing a bright, beautiful and soul conquering smile to Ken, her smile was such a sight to behold,any man would only have one thought after seeing her smile.
'protect at all cost'
Ken puffed his chest and opened his mouth, wanting to say something but again, agent Alex did not allow any sweet atmosphere in his presence so he chose to murd..ahem...mm,sorry,he chose to interrupt Ken's moment of glory, although unknowingly.
"But we did not do it for you,I just wanted to get away as soon as possible"Alex said and suddenly felt a murderous glare with the source naturally being Ken,he was surprised at how the boy was able to unleash such a nasty gaze and aslo why he was being the target of this gaze because he didn't know what he did wrong this time.
Ken really felt like dying this time,what was this guy,a Devil or what,why was he being a piece of shit in clear water,he finally had the once in a lifetime opportunity to show off in front of a beauty like Becky but Alex just couldn't see others progress with his own two eyes and had to ruin the chance with his nasty bullets he shot as words.
Becky on the other hand didn't think much of it and just replied swiftly "I know you did not,but your actions unintentionally helped me survive today's torture and I think they would probably stop for now
I have been humiliated in public multiple times and not even once did I dare to say a word nor do anything because of our status difference,I also did not want to get expelled from the school so I just kept quiet all this while" she clenched her fist and stopped her speech as tears slowly trailed down her face,she was crying again,her eyes already red and sorrowful.
"Why didn't you report to the school?" Ken asked, puzzled at why she would keep quiet about all the things that they had done to her.
"Report?the school won't interfere and you would only suffer more after those damned dogs discovered that you tried to report them since the least they would get is a warning"Alex sneered in disdain,he seems to hold some grudges with the school's disciplinary department.
Becky gritted her teeth as she heard Alex's response,it was obvious that the girl had also tried reporting but only got silence as a reply.
Ken could only feel pity for her,he now understood what that old man in the administration office told him,he was exceptionally glad that he was under the jeaga family's influence,so he was quite safe as long as he did not look for trouble or something unexpected happened.
"Still,if you really wanted to show gratitude, you could have waited till tomorrow so we could meet after class or any other time and place except for here, what if you get caught?all of us would be in serious trouble"Alex wasn't still over the present situation and nagged Becky continuously.
"I can cover for you guys,I don't really care what happens to me here anymore,as long as I am not expelled,I am good"Becky said confidently.
Alex looked at the girl who was trying to act bold before him,he had no words to refute her and just chose to forget about the issue.
"Well you should get going now, I don't want the others to arrive and discover you are here in our room"Alex said indifferently as he stepped towards the door to see Becky out.
Becky suddenly became restless and was now twirling her fingers around each other,she wasn't willing to leave,not yet,she kept shifting her gaze between Ken and Alex.
Hoping for a miracle to happen but it turned out even lady luck wanted her out so she took the initiative again.
"C-can I a-ask for a r-request?" She buried her head in her hands and shut her eyes tightly,her voice wasn't loud but was enough for Alex who was even at the door to hear her muttering.
Alex withdrew his hand from the door handle and faced her "tell me, what's your request?" He wanted to hear her request so he would know if he should kick her out or let her stay a little longer.
His ultimate plan currently was to stay low-key,he didn't want to blow his cover because of some random beautiful girl.
Alex shook his head lazily,he was wondering if all girls were this troublesome to deal with,well his mother was an exception,she was on a whole different level than normal girls.
"Can w-we be fr-friends?" She stuttered then suddenly raised her gaze to meet Alex's.
Alex was taken by surprise by her action,he could see she was trying her best to maintain her serious face.
He smiled and did not say anything,he went close to her and stood before her, Becky felt Alex's shadow was looming over her,she wasn't scared but instead felt secure.
Alex placed his hand on top of Becky's trembling hands,Becky was completely taken by surprise,she blushed so hard that her face was threatening to explode but didn't pull back or hands nor flinched.
She just let Alex touch her hands, unknown to both her and ken that Alex had infused a small blue energy orb into her ,it would be nearly impossible to notice unless one paid extreme attention to Alex's movements.
Becky felt some type of warm sensation inside of her but because of her flushed state,she was unable to take detailed notes and just thought it was a side effect of being touched by one's crush.
Alex withdrew his hand after some time and then scanned her face, Becky felt his gaze and blushed hardly again, biting her lips with some sense of longing and frustration.
Alex saw his self control almost boarding a spaceship and flying away when the scene of Becky biting her lips reached his brain,she was just too seductive with even the simplest actions.
Thankful,Alex was quick to snatch his self control back before it could flee.
