CHAPTER 10
~CARLY’S HOUSE~
“Urgh!” Mercury slumps on the sofa.
It has been a tiring day for both her and Carly.
They have been around having fun, shopping and playing around.
Finally they’re home and they’re just hungry and tired.
“What are we having? I’m famished”
“This?” Carly said showing her the cereals on her hand.
“What? That’s a joke right?”
“Do you wanna have coke then?”
“Don’t you have any food at home?”
“Let’s just order something?” She dropped the cereals and made a call.
“Don’t tell me you can’t cook?” Mercury teased.
“I know you can’t either?”
“Hmmm…not bad…what’re you ordering?”
“What else…pizza”
“Argh!! I want food…?”
Minutes later the delivery arrived.
The ate…played…crack jokes…laughs…dance.
The house was in a total mess.
“Tell me V if Clark ask you out, Will you say yes?”
“No I won’t….but if Neptune ask me out…I would certainly say yes”
“I would love to meet this Neptune of yours”
“Should I tell you about him?” She grinned.
“I would-” she was interrupted by the sound of the door opening.
“Fa…father…?” They both sprang up.
Carly’s father looks at the messy house then to them before sighing.
“Your friend?” He asked.
“Oh good day sir…I’m Mercury..Carl’s friend” she grinned.
“Ohhh I’ve heard about you…welcome dear” he smiles.
“Nice to meet you sir?”
“Father….we would clean everything up right now”.
Mercury wondered why she calls him father when she can just call him Dad.
Calling him father makes it seems like they aren’t close enough.
Maybe he likes it that way. She shrugged.
” it’s okay…enjoy yourselves…Mercury dear…feel at home ”
“Thank you sir” she smiles and he nodded before leaving to his room.
“Hey I thought you’d you Dad won’t be around till tomorrow?”
“Well that’s what I thought…don’t know why he’s back early…?” She shrugged.
“Let’s get this place cleaned up first” she added and they start cleaning up.
Hours later after having an awkward dinner with Carly and her Dad.
Mercury laid on the bed with wondering why her family is kinda boring.
Throu-ghout the dinner, there wasn’t no such thing AA excitement unlike her family where they would gist and laugh.
Well maybe they were just maintaining the table manners.
But even after that Carly and her Dad didn’t utter a single word to each other.
It’s like they’re just leaving together without no communication or any relationship whatsoever.
She finds it weird.
Is Carly not close to her Dad?
According to what Carly told her, her mother is out of the country only her and her Dad stays in the big house.
Would the house be happier if her mother was here?
“Did you have fun today?” Carly asked jerking her outta her thoughts.
“Of course…let’s do this often…next time it’s my house” she said while Carly only smiles.
“Goodnight” she muttered.
“Nighty night” she replied and close her eyes waiting for the sleep to take over.
For over an hour, Mercury hasn’t able to get any sleep and just when she was about to she heard some movement around her.
Opening her eyes she saw Carly sneaking out of the room.
Why sneak out?
She pretends to be asleep as Carly checked if she’s really sleeping.
After checking she snuck out of the room and Mercury opened her eyes.
What’s happening? She thought and got out of the room.
She had no idea where she went but she kept sneaking around till she heard some sound in a room.
She snuck there and luckily the door was silently opened.
It was actually Carly’s Dad study room.
She took a peak at what’s was happening and was shocked to the marrow at what she was.
“Oh my God!” She gasped.
????MAJESTIC HIGH????
Students keeps murmuring about the rumors which has circulate the whole school.
“Do you think it’s true?”
“I hope not…I really like him”
“Does that mean we have no chance with him?”
“This is bad”
“Who’s the bit-ch anyway?”
“fu-ck! I hate her already”
Joe ran to the clas-salmost tripping, he breathes heavily as he entered the cla-ss.
“Guys…guys..big news!” He said pa-nting.
“Everyone one belt up…the school crier is here” Lia said and everyone burst into laughter.
“So, what’s up Joe…what’s the latest news?” Livia asked and everyone focused their attention on him.
“I have there news here with me..the hot news..the latest news and the big news”
“Mr news teller tells us already” Luke shouted from the back and Joe adjusted his gla-sses.
“Apparently…Clark has a fiancee…that’s is the hot news” he said and everyone was just looking at him.
“Come in guys believe me…you know I never bring false news”
“We do know but that’s all over the school already…everyone is talking about it” Lizzy replied to him.
“Just get your as-soutta there already” Kia waved it off.
“Really…then I guess you guys haven’t heard the latest news…her name starts with ‘J'”
“J?”
“Yeah…J…and I also bet you didn’t know she was un clas-sthree all along” he said again.
“What do you mean?” Mia asked.
“Clark’s so called fiancee is in our clas-sguys” he said shocking everyone.
“who is she then?” Kia frowns.
“I don’t know…that’s left for you guys to find out”..
“Aren’t you the news guru…you should know”
“Sorry to disappoint but I don’t…how can I when she’s hiding herself so well…even Clark doesn’t know who she is?” Joe shrugged.
“fu-ck! Does that mean someone is lying to us all?!” Lia looks around the cla-ss.
” who is it? Who?” Mia asked obviously angry.
“Stop being so desperate, will you?”
“What?”
“Everyone can tell you’re being insecure cause someone in this clas-syou surely knows well is gonna be the Queen of MAJESTIC HIGH poor you Mia…I’m starting to pity you now” he shakes his head and Mia didn’t hesitate to throw the first the her hand touches at him which was a purse.
“Get lost Joe before I break your freaking head” she yelled and Joe surrendered leaving the cla-ss.
“Argh!” Mia sighed and kia start ma-ssaging her head.
“But who do you think it is?” Kia asked.
Everyone seems to be lost figuring out who it is…there are more than six people with their names starting with J in their clas-sand instantly they’ve been suspecting them all.
“Gbam!” Everyone flinched as they heard the desk sound.
“I’m sick of all this seriously…?” Joyce said as she hits her hand on the desk gaining everyone’s attention.
“I’m tired of pretending…I hate tension like this the most…he’s right? Clark’s fiancee is in this cla-ss…and it’s…me? I’m clas-sfiancee?” She announced and everywhere went silent trying to take in what she said.
Even the MKL BEAUTIES seems to be lost in thought also.
Joyce sees this and started laughing.
“Seriously guys…don’t tell me you believe that…you should all see your faces right now…you all look funny” she laughs pointing at them all.
“Are you having fun?!!” Mia yelled at her making her keep shut immediately taking her sit.
Mia looks around and her eyes landed on a girl chewing gum.
Her name is Jemima…yeah Jemima.
“Hey…don’t look at me like that…I’m not the one” she said to Mia who was shooting daggers at her.
Mia looks around and immediately all the girls with their names starting with j quickly said they’re not the one.
Frustrated she sighs walking out of the clas-sas her friends followed her.
~THE COLD’S SPECIAL CLa-ssROOM~
“Hey I heard your fiancee attends this school?” Olive asked Clark who seems to be thinking of something.
” it seems so” he replied dryly.
“Then you shouldn’t be sitting down here…go look for her”
“How will I when I don’t know anything about her?”
“Well I think you’ll know with this?” Leo said handing his phone over to him.
“You’re sure fast bro” Danny said looking at his phone together with Clark and Olive.
“So, who is this miss J?”
“My fu-cking fiancee I guess?” He gave Leo back the phone.
“If she’s really in clas-sthree then there’s no doubt she’s the one” Danny said.
“Who? Do you know who it is?” Leo asked and Danny faced Olive.
“I think we all know…Olive don’t you?”.
“Hmmm…I think I do know…it was her after all”
“And if you say her you mean who?”
“His girlfriend?” Olive points at Clark.
“My girlfriend? And since when have i gotten one?”
“Your errand girl? ”
“Planet girl?”
“Yeah…her surname starts with J innit?
“She’s not the one!” Leo said immediately
“How would you know that?”
“It’s…it’s makes no…sense…right Clark?” Leo face Clark.
“You guys really need to stop blubbering rubbish” Clark said.
“And why would you think that…look look at that girl clearly don’t you think something is off? Why is it that everyone fears you but she doesn’t?” Danny said.
“Not only that…she talks to you anyhow..have no fear and even do a lot of silly things to you…hey it’s all because she knows in the end you can’t do anything to her because she’s your fiancee dummy” Olive chipped in.
Now Clark has begin to reason with what his friends are saying.
“It could also be her friend you know…Carly” Leo said.
“Nah…I’m sure it’s that planet girl…it turned out for the better…you like her don’t you?” Danny asked
“What nonsense is that?”
“Don’t pretend…?”..
” I’m not! I don’t like her?! Never!”..
“Ummm…Olive..?”
“Yes honey..?”
“I hate you…?”
“Ohhh you sure not the opposite?”
“I really hate you?”
“You sure…then I’ll have to make you like me…?”
“What…?”
“I’m gonna make you fall for me…in three seconds…?”
“That’s nonsense…?”
“1…?”
“It’s not possible …?”
“2..?”
“I can never_”
“3…?” kis-s Olive’s cheek.
“Now do you like me…?”
“I…I..humph!”
“I like you planet girl..?”
“I like you too Cute dummy”
“fu-ck you two” Clark kicked them while Olive and Danny burst into laughter.
Leo only sighed rubbing his forehead.
Clark’s phone beeps, it was a message from his mother.
“Get that girl…she’s the only alternative we have…you better don’t mess this up” he sighs.
“Are you guys sure about this?” He asked.
“It’s up to you man” Danny replied.
“Let’s go”
* * * *
“Oh my it’s the COLD!!”
“Danny I love you”
“He’s so charming…?”
“Why are they suddenly here?”
“Is something going on?”
“Leo please look at me…?”
Mercury, Kings and Carly were chatting happily oblivious of what’s happening around them.
“I swear if it were me I’d freak out”
“You’re such a bummer Kings”
“Carly do you also think so?”.
” I support you guy…you’re the best”
“Let’s go to a karaoke tonight what do you say?”
“Sounds cool…?”
“Alright…Carly I really wanna see you dance with those tiny hips of yours”
“Really now…?”
“Come on let’s go eat..?” Kings put his arms around their shoulders as the trio chat happily to the cafeteria but was stopped by the COLD.
“Ugh! Kill joy” Mercury muttered.
Kings removed his arms instantly as Clark glares at him.
“Why? Are you here to torme_” Mercury didn’t finished her statement when Clark pulled her to himself.
Everyone gasped.
“Let me go…? What are you doing now?” She struggles to set free.
“Is she the one?”
“That can’t be…?”
“Why her…?”
“I hate her seriously…?”
“Aww…she’s so lucky…?”
“I wanna be the COLD’S fiancee too…?”
Mercury sighs finally getting what’s happening.
She stopped struggling.
Clark’s fiancee is….?
What do you think Mercury saw that night?
