Oh dear, it kind of messed up. Oh my god. Why didn't I check earlier?
Well, I hope it won't mess up this time, I guess. I am so embarrassed right now oh my god.
Now that's all fixed, I guess, I hope you enjoy reading this real chapter and not just computer codes.
"You've got to be kidding me." Tecna stated, turning to Jonas with a horrified look. Not only he has chosen a nork (A nerd and a dork), but he chose the nerdiest one she's ever met! And trust her, she met plenty of nerds, geeks, dorks, etc. by attending nerdy conventions and going into comic book stores. Hey, just because she's considered a popular girl in school doesn't mean she has to obsess with boys and makeup (that's Stella's job). She also happens to be extremely smart and happens to have an interest in Technology.
"What's wrong? You said that I am replaceable with any guy around here." Jonas shrugged in a fake-innocent way, while his girlfriend (Let's just call her Mackenzie from now on) just continued on with her annoying high-pitched laugh (Tecna could have sworn Musa is trying hard not to punch her in the face). "Now, why won't you do it with Timothy Warren here?"
"There are a lot of reasons why!" Exclaimed Stella, grabbing the blonde permed boy by the shoulders and harshly pulled him for him to see the bespectacled boy clearly. "Shaggy orange-brown hair? Red thick-rimmed glasses? A green shirt with orange stripes with a white shirt underneath? Who does that anymore?! Not to mention the color of his pants! Eww! Someone, call the fashion police!"
Bloom observed the bespectacled boy. "He looks like that stereotypical ginger nerd in movies, only this is real life, not a movie…."
"…Says the ginger dork herself." Mackenzie snickered. Bloom just clenched her fist and was about to pound on her, but was stopped by Flora who instructed her to take a deep breath, which she did. She then eventually calmed down and huffed.
"Anyway," Musa started, "He looks like someone who just had his Genetics take a shit on him or something."
"Oh, come on," Flora herself observed the boy, "He's not that bad."
"No, Flo, he's that bad." Aisha pointed out, shaking her head and sighing.
Flora frowned at her friends' negativity. How they just judged this poor boy by his appearance, when he could be really nice for all they know. "At least say something positive about him."
"Well…" Stella started, observing him again. "I guess we can make him cute, just get rid of the glasses, do something with his hair, and….err,"
"Really, Stell?" Bloom frowned at her friend's speechlessness.
"This is bad." Musa shook her head with a horrified look. "If Stella can't fabulize him, I don't think anyone else can."
"Well, you'd better get going." Jonas piped up, getting ready to leave. "He obviously can't groom himself." With a chuckle and yet another annoying high-pitched laugh, they left, but before they could disappear into the crowd, Jonas turned back to the magenta-haired girl with a smirk. "And remember, no backing out."
"Or else what?" Tecna asked, narrowing her eyes.
"Well, you'll lose anyway, and you're still going to Prom with Timothy nonetheless." Jonas said, still with a smirk on his pretty face. "So tick-tock, your time is running out if you're going to stand there complaining instead of introducing yourself to him or something."
The magenta-haired genius was about to open her mouth to protest, but stopped as she realized that the annoying couple had already left. She just slouched and gave a frown, glancing at the geek that she was going to transform into a hottie, that is, if she can. The poor boy was still struggling with getting up after stumbling down by his heavy bags.
"Sorry for dragging you into this, Tec." Stella apologized with a sympathetic frown, "I thought he'd choose a normal guy or something."
"Well, it can't be helped." Tecna sighed, rubbing her temples. Before glancing back at the struggling boy with a frown, "Well, wish me luck." The girls said their good luck's as Tecna straightened her clothing and took a deep breath, before walking away from her friends and to the ginger-haired boy.
…
Timmy frowned as he pushed his thick red-rimmed glasses up to his nose, still struggling to get up, but failing to do so. He silently hoped that at least someone will stop by and help him, these bags are really heavy. But no, no one even acknowledged his presence and either just ignored him or snickered with their friends, not bothering to help him.
As he finally got the strength to lift up his bags, he then proceeded to pick up his books and folders that had fallen from his arms. But as he was picking up his folders, from his peripheral, he can spot a pair of purple heels walking towards him, or at least, towards his direction, and who he can assume to belong to a girl, or a gay man, but he was leaning in more to a girl, considering her long, slim and pale legs.
He shook his head and continued on gathering his folders, thinking that this girl was just probably passing by or something. But he was wrong.
"Uh, hey," The girl greeted awkwardly, her voice just confirmed his theory that she is, in fact, a female. Her voice was smooth, and soft-spoken. He can also sense some British accent in her voice. So he had a clue of who it is, his main rival when it comes to certain classes.
The bespectacled boy shook his head again, thinking she is probably greeting someone else. Because why else would someone, much less a girl, not to mention a gorgeous (he had to admit) and a popular one, talk to some nerd like him? No absolute reason he could think of, that's why.
But again, he was wrong when the girl had spoken yet again, to him. "Err, hello, Timmy, right?" She asked a bit louder, thinking that he probably had not heard her at friend.
He finally looked up at the mention of his name. And he was almost startled when the one that had greeted him was none other than Tecna Titania. "Uh, e-err, yeah," He stammered, lightly scratching his cheek as he felt himself blush lightly, believe it or not, this is the first time Tecna had ever spoken to him anywhere other than their classrooms, and he can't help but feel flustered, he had to admit, he has a somewhat crush on her since middle school. "U-uh, Tecna, right?"
Tecna nodded, crouching down to pick up some of the folders and papers nearby to help him pick up. After they both stood up, Tecna straightened the papers, before shyly handing him the folders and papers with a smile. "Here you go."
Timmy blinked at this, slightly blushing as he stared at the folders and papers that are being handed to him. Thinking that the magenta-haired girl's arms are getting tired, he tensed up as he gently took the folder and papers from her. "Err, thanks, Tecna." He thanked, chuckling nervously. He silently cursed himself for being so awkward and weird, here, his first chance of talking to one of the most gorgeous girls he could ever meet, is now ruined with him being weird as always.
Thankfully for him, she didn't looked weirded out and just chuckled along with him, much to his surprise. "So..." She started after she stopped chuckled, "Um, how are you?"
"Errm, good." He answered lamely, "Uh, you?" Why is she even talking to me right now? Is she asking me out or something? Unlikely, very, very unlikely. Maybe she just needs something.
"Same." She responded with a smile, before sighing and looking away from him, "Look, I was wondering if..."
Wondering if what? He thought as he waiting patiently on the outside.
"If, you are, perhaps, free later?" She asked, now facing him with a rather curious look. "Errm, I know this is a bit straight forward but-"
"Yes." He blurted out before she could finish. She looked up, surprised that he could accept so fast. He cleared his throat at this, looking away, "Err, I mean, yes, I am, in fact, free later." He explained, "But may I ask why you are asking if I am free later?" He asked politely, as if to not offend her.
"Uh, you know, I heard you got the last of the copy of a limited edition Grand Theft Auto: Magix Edition?" She asked, "I failed to get one; and I would like to check yours out, just out of curiosity."
Timmy was rather taken back at this. A girl? Liking video games? He didn't want to sound sexist, but it's really rare for a girl to actually like video games, much less play them. "Errm, sure, I guess you can check them out." He chuckled nervously, feeling flattered that someone other than his nerdy friends are actually interested in his video game collection.
"Great." Tecna smiled at him, hearing the bell ring, "Um, see you later, then?" She asked as she was preparing walk away with her friends for next period.
"Uh, yeah, sure." Timmy smiled back at her as she began to walk away, still waving at him, until she disappeared with her friends on the crowd. Before he himself sighed and turned to his current class.
Well, Tecna's first approach with him kinda sucked, but whatever.
I hope the characters are more in character this time, no? Well, shoot. Anyway, the reason Flora and Bloom's names are different from the others is because, at the time I was writing this, I had forgotten what Flora's home realm was and then I was like 'Screw it' and went with Adams. Bloom on the other hand, well, I heard that Bloom's Earth last name was Peters so I just kind of went with it.
I also happen to notice that Tecna sounds...fake in this chapter. But then again, she's only doing it for the bet, so yeah.
Thanks for reading!
