The Haven School was in much uproar when the day for electing the school council officers came. The candidates
were in the stage while the crowd stayed at the middle of the school ground.
"There sure are many people supporting you, Nelliel," Hallibel one of the candidates whispered beside Nelliel.
"Yes, maybe I will win President this time or maybe not," the two girls laughed.
"Hey, Nel," a familiar irritating voice called the girl. It was none other than Nnoitra Jiruga, one of the most violent
boys in the school that Nelliel had known.
"What is it Nnoitra?" Nelliel asked.
"I'm going to win so you better stop hoping you can beat me," Nnoitra said then he left them alone.
"Well, we'll see about that," Nel said avoiding another argument.
The results came and Nnoitra was furious because he was Vice president and Nelliel Oderschvank was the
President! He always hated Nelliel. He hated her for three reasons: one, Nelliel always gets higher position than
him. Two, she liked Tesla. His personal servant who accompanies him in school. And three, the most important,
he likes her, as in likes, and she doesn't know it.
"Damn it, I can't believe that this would happen," he kicked the table in anger.
"Master, you did your best to win," Tesla tried to comfort him but it only made him even more mad.
"Shut up, okay? I don't need your opinion. If you want you could laugh at me like the others for all I care!" he
yelled and went out shutting the door in Tesla's face.
Nnoitra strode in the school ground with his hands in his pockets. He was cursing the world when all of a sudden
the root of all his problems appeared before him. It was Nelliel.
"Hi, Nnoitra," she greeted but Nnoitra snubbed her and walked the other way. "Wait," Nelliel went after him.
"There's something I want to ask you," Nnoitra stopped at this.
"What?" he snapped, secretly hoping that maybe he has a chance to be noticed by Nel after all. But his blood
boiled because of her next words.
"By any chance, did you see Tesla? I forgot to thank him for congratulating me-" she started.
"Why ask me? Am I your personal Tesla-Locating Device?!" he snapped then stomped his way to the next building,
leaving Nelliel clueless of his actions.
Nnoitra walked towards the hallways of the third floor to his next class when he heard a giggle from the student
council room. The voice sounded familiar so he peeked to see who that was. His eyes went wide when he saw who
was in the room, Nelliel and Tesla! They were talking and Nelliel laughed at something that Tesla said. Nnoitra
suddenly got jealous at the thought that he can never make Nel smile and laugh like Tesla does. He got angry
when Tesla held Nelliel's hands.
'What the hell? That bastard is not her boyfriend yet and he is holding her hand?' Nnoitra thought angrily. He
opened the door and went in.
"Well, well, well. What do we have here?" he said. "people but it seems you got the wrong room. This is the SC
room and not a hotel,"
Nelliel stood up. "We're not doing anything wrong, Nnoitra," she said calmly.
"Yeah, right. I can see that." He said sarcastically while giving them a look. That's when Nelliel snapped.
"What is your problem?" she screamed. "You're always like that when you talk to me but I don't recall ever doing
anything wrong to you,"
Nnoitra crossed his arms over his chest. "Really? You think?!" he shot back.
"You're impossible! I just can't understand you. You're always sarcastic, rude, and violent with me and I don't
understand why. Do you just enjoy hurting people's feelings?"
"I have a reason, alright?!" Nnoitra yelled suddenly, making Nelliel stop talking.
"Hah!" Nel waved her hand. "A reason? Then care to inform me of this reason of yours?" she asked in a sarcastic
manner for a first time.
"I was jealous! I didn't know how the hell it happened but I suddenly found myself feeling like an idiot picking
fights with you for a strange reason. I like you that's why I did all of that!" Nnoitra confessed, or rather yelled at
her face.
The room was quiet after the outright confession. Even Tesla was shocked that his master could ACTUALLY like a
person. And what's more, his master thought that he was Nelliel's lover.
Nnoitra blushed at his rash actions. "Ya know what? Scratch that, I- damn!" he muttered when he was at loss of
words. He glanced at Nelliel and when she did not respond he decided to leave. He slammed the door shut in their
still shocked faces.
"What the hell was that?" Nnoitra whispered to himself. "Really, Nnoitra? A confession? Oh fuck!" he face-palmed.
After dismissal, Nelliel decided to go buy an ice cream at her favorite store while she thought of Nnoitra's actions
that afternoon. She still did not recover from the shock earlier. Who would have thought that a guy like Nnoitra
could actually love?
"Hey, you!" an angry voice behind Nelliel called her attention. It was one of the competitors, Natasha Brook. She
was very angry at Nelliel for beating her in the election. "You sneaky witch! How dare you take what's mine. I'm
supposed to be the SC president this year but you stole it from me,"
"I did not steal anything from you, Natasha. I did not use any sneaky actions like you did." Nelliel said, making
Natasha even angrier. Last week of the campaign, Neliel witnessed Natasha giving bribes to the other students.
"Shut up!" Natasha screeched then shoved Nelliel off the steps.
Meanwhile, Nnoitra was so disturbed whether he should go to school tomorrow or not. He was going home that
time when he heard a scream. He looked to his right only to see Nelliel and a dark haired girl. The dark
haired girl was yelling at Nel and accusing her of stealing the SC president position.
He thought of ignoring them and going straight home but he decided to stay around for a while. He couldn't bear to
show his face to Nel one more time because he felt humiliated of his acts the previous hours.
"Shut up!" the dark haired girl screeched then shoved Nelliel off the steps.
Nnoitra panicked and ran at the scene, catching Nel in his arms before she could even hit the steps. They rolled
down the steps while Nnoitra took the pain as he protected Nel.
Nelliel opened her eyes to see who caught her and was overcome by mixed emotions when she saw who that was.
It was Nnoitra. And his head was bleeding very much from the fall. Nelliel panicked and tried calling for help but
there was no one around.
"Please, Nnoitra. Don't die on me!" She begged as she held Nnoitra's head on her lap. "Don't die." She was already
crying.
Natasha was frozen in shock at the sight of blood. "Don't just stand there! Call for help!" Nel yelled at her
frantically. Natasha fumbled in her pockets for her phone.
Nnoitra laughed a little, wiping her tears. "You look ugly when you…cry. Stop it. Stop being like that, I might
mistake it for affection an' it won't be fair to Tesla," He whispered.
Nel cried even more. "No, it's like that! Actually, the reason why I always hang out with Tesla was so that we
could talk about you. I like you," she said that left him speechless for a second. "but it's your attitude makes me
hesitant to approach you. Did you hear me? I like you so don't you dare die on me after saying you like me too,
okay?" she sobbed.
Nnoitra smiled. "I'm glad to hear that," they heard a ambulance coming when closed his eyes.
