章節 46: Solution
~Third Person's Point of View~
"So we will be kind and help you with your problem," Jester said with a smirk
"We need clothes to change into, that's the only solution which also happens to be a new problem," Lavalee said bluntly
"So blunt, Lav," Zhyrene commented
"We have a solution for your problem," Alkia said taking their attention
"You don't have a choice but to wear these though," Athena said and gave Lavalee, Jace, and Ares paper bags.
"Let's go, Lav," Zhyrene said and pulled Lavalee
"Flame," Jace called and threw a pair of denim pants from his bag to Lavalee
"Manang Fe," Jace said before Lavalee could even ask. Lavalee smiled and placed her things; wallet and phone, in Jace's bag.
"We'll meet in front of the Council office," Jester said before the girls pulled Lavalee to the office.
"Where did you get these?" Lavalee asked when she saw that there are three blouses in white, blue, and green colors.
When she examined the blouses she realized that those were couple's shirts for a girl.
"Zhyrene said that the visitor would probably be you so she asked us to prepare that ahead of time," Alkia explained
"Ah, thank you," Lavalee said
"Go, change quickly! " Zhyrene said so Lavalee took the blue shirt because she doesn't like white because it's dirty and she doesn't like the shade of green because it's too dark.
Lavalee came out while wearing the blue shirt, then Zhyrene asked Lavalee to sit down. and combed her hair.
"It's been too long since you let me fix your hair, Lav," Zhyrene said
"It's been a long time since I came here, Zhy," Lavalee said
"Who's that guy, uh Lavalee?" Althea asked vaguely
"Jace, a friend, and bodyguard," Lavalee said
"So you, uh, live together?" Athena asked
"Yeah, with Jess, Chelsea, and Irene, along with his comrades," Lavalee replied
"Frost doesn't have a girlfriend yet?" Zhyrene asked Lavalee
"Your crush, Zhy?" Athena asked
"No, I prefer someone funny and playful," Zhyrene said so Lavalee smiled
"Like Ares?" Lav asked so Zhyrene pulled her hair
"Ouch, that's painful, Zhy," Lavalee said
"Liar, you didn't even flinch while you were being whipped," Zhyrene said and tied the end of Lavalee's braided hair
"Was that you?" Alisha asked Lavalee so she frowned as Lavalee faced her
"My brother attended a meeting with the gangster council, Papa was also there, I saw the 30 whiplashing," Alisha said
"Ah, yeah, though it wasn't that painful, I was numb already by then." Lavalee replied and they left
The men are already waiting outside
"Nice," Jester, Ares, and Franco said while smiling as they looked at Lavalee with braided hair and a blue shirt.
"You have a problem?" Lavalee asked the three
"Here," Jace said and handed Lavalee's cellphone and wallet
"Tara na! Let's join the fun." Lavalee said and they went to the booths.
Lavalee is making every student look at her as she passes by.
They're taking everyone's attention just by mere passing. Some recognized them as the school's special guests, while most of the students think that they are visitors.
"Is this your first time?" Jace asked Lavalee
"Nope, It's just that it's been 5 years since I was able to join this kind of fun," Lavalee replied and pulled him to the shooting area she was looking at earlier.
"Look at Lav, always going ahead," Ares said and scratched the back of his head
"Let her have fun, Ares, Lavalee deserves it," Franco told Ares
"Why are you still surprised? You're not worth paying attention to," Zhyrene added
"You're not worth paying attention to," Jester repeated and the girls left the three of them
Lavalee went in line and of course, she's taking attention because of her auburn eyes and red hair, adding the fact that she and Jace are wearing a couple's shirts.
Jace was just standing near the stall watching Lavalee have fun.
'This girl's unbelievable.' Jace shook his head at the thought while watching how Lavalee's eyes glittered at the sight of moving targets.
When it was Lavalee's turn, she paid twenty pesos for five rubber bullets.
After shooting five targets accurately, she received an infinity ring as her price.
She got her ticket stamped and she smiled victoriously while walking back to Jace.
"Come on, Jace, join the fun. I swear, I won't sneak out on you," Lavalee said and pulled Jace to the target shooting stall.
Jace went along with her and got his ticket stamped too after he finished his turn, he received an infinity bracelet which he handed to Lavalee.
"So KJ, Dreice," Lavalee whispered
"You can't run in heels." Jace reminded Lavalee and pointed to her high heels.
"Oh I can, Jace," Lavalee said but before she can run, Jace held her hand tightly and pulled her near
"You promised," Jace reminded her
"Fine," Lavalee said and walked to a stall where they could go wall climbing.
"It's dangerous," Jace said
"Please, Jace, just one game," Lavalee said and Jace massage his temples because of Lavalee's stubborn attitude.
"Fine," Jace agreed and Lavalee went in line.
He stood beside her and when it was Lavalee's turn, he leaned at a post near where he can easily rush to Lavalee in case she falls.
Lavalee gave him her heels and stepped on the foam at the bottom of the wall.
He watched as Lavalee climbed up as if she's just climbing up the ladder.
'What can't she do?' he thought when Lavalee reached the end and pressed the bell then began climbing down with ease again.
He walked near and placed Lavalee's shoes at the edge of the foam.
"See? I told you, I can do it," Lavalee said while she's strapping her heels
Lavalee chose the small bear with a red crystal heart.
"Here," Jace said and Lavalee placed the small bear inside his bag.
"Where else?" Jace asked after Lavalee got her Pass stamped
"Play in the obstacle course," Lavalee said making Jace look at her confused and pointed at himself
"Yep, you," Lavalee said and pointed at Jace
"Or you want me to join it myself?" Lavalee asked tauntingly
"Fine, I will join," Jace said and took his wallet from his bag and gave his bag to Lavalee.
They went to the line of the obstacle course and saw Jester and Ares having a bet.
"What are you doing here?" Ares asked the two
"We're playing, obviously," Lavalee replied sarcastically
"Bro, don't let her join, she's wearing high heels," Jester told Jace
"Who told you I'm the one joining? Dreice will join, right?" Lavalee said and glanced at Jace who sighed before nodding
"Bro, don't be under. Lavalee is manipulative and that will make you suffer." Ares said
"We have a deal, Flame," Jace warned Lavalee obviously ignoring Ares
"E~tsu? Nani? Doshite?" Lavalee asked with her puppy eyes
(Translation: Eh? What? Why?)
"No, a deal's a deal," Jace said and placed his tongue in the insides of his cheek because he's stopping himself from smiling at the look on Lavalee's face
"See, now you found your match," Ares said and pointed at Lavalee, the latter just rolled her eyes.
"Stay here, I mean it," Jace said and tapped Lavalee's head
"You like him?" Franco asked and stood beside Lavalee
"I don't particularly hate him," Lavalee replied
"Playing safe, huh?" Franco said and shook his head
After a few more booths, Lavalee pulled out her phone and at that moment, she received a text from Chelsea.
"Hey, guys, they'll be coming here tomorrow." Lavalee said
"You mean Icarus, Jaxith, and the girls?" Ares clarified and Lavalee shook her head
"Not just them, with their bodyguards. I thought they know, Dreice?" Lavalee said and turned to Jace
"Don't call me that," Jace said and Lavalee rolled her eyes
"Nan demo i. So, the guys didn't know?" Lavalee replied
"They know," Jace answered
"Uh, can we have lunch first?" Alkia offered
"Sure," They all agreed and went to the rooftop of the Med Building, the only vacant place they can eat in peacefully.
"You brought lunch?" Franco asked when Jace gave Lavalee her lunch box
"Manang Fe cooked for us earlier," Lavalee replied and they ate
Jace handed her her drink and drank his.
"Bro, is that Lav's drink?" Ares asked while pointing at the drink Jace is drinking
"No," Jace replied while shaking his head
"Good, that girl is drinking poison," Ares said and they heaved a sigh
"It's not poison! Anata baka!" Lavalee said and hit Ares and Jester on the arm because of what they've said
"Poisonous berries and herbs?" Jace asked with a scrunched face
"Not poisonous, they're just a special kind," Lavalee replied and drank
They ate their lunch and after that, they decided to rest for a bit by chitchatting which Jace, on the other hand, didn't join but he kept listening to their conversation.
He found out different things about Lavalee and one of the things that caught his attention is when they talked about Lavalee being punished with 30 whiplashes.
'How can she withstand that?' Jace thought to himself
"Don't think too much, Dreice," Lavalee said and patted Jace when she finished the booth she joined
