Welcome back! IM SO ABSOLUTELY SoRRY FOR BEING GONE FOR A WHOLE WEEK. I have done nothing in the past week, I had a writers block and i kept trying to look for inspiration by watching different seasons of winx and reading more stories. I just had a hard time his week. I hope you guys appreciate what i have to put up.
This chapter contains coarse language. Btw, this chapter is a lot of FxH, has Nicholas and a tad bit of Nicole.
Tuesday and Wednesday passed, leaving Brandon worried about his promotion for student body president.
Nicholas was all out on campaigning, covering all corners of the campus. He even hired the school's band just to promote himself.
'#2 Woods, Nicholas. The best Red Fountain has'
So far, all Brandon's committee has done was prepare balloons, flyers, pins and shirts saying;
"#1 Brandon Lynphea, for the betterment of RF's area'
There was the gang at lunch talking about more possible last-minute promotion. One person on the other hand fell asleep through it all. Flora hade no ounce of sleep for the past day. She's been printing and cutting these stickers with her Brother's face. She's done non stop promotions from the freshmen to seniors.
She was seated with her arms on the table which supported her head while She snored peacefully not bothering the rest of the group.
"She's been working so hard." Layla commented as She brushed through Flora's Caramel hair.
"Yo, Brandon better win this." Riven said.
"He will." Bloom tried to spread positivity.
Suddenly, "Idea!" Stella stood making a large amount of students look to their table. Even Flora moved, being startled.
"Shh" Everyone at the table made the blonde sit down.
"Okay. Okay... This will definitely bring Brandon to the top." Stella convinced.
"Keep talking..." Brandon urged the Blonde beside him.
"Since this Friday is The Presidential Debate, We can promote Brandon before this weekend at the Fruitti Music Bar. Musa could sing, we can call Andy and the guys to play. You know put a small concert on to promote Brandon."
"Isn't that against the rules?" Helia asked looking at the risk they could take.
"Umm... It doesn't say. It only states that 'The candidates' committee must be in charge of school promotion. Promotion of Candidacy such as Pins, Flyers and Posters are required. Extra promotion will be allowed as long as approved by the school Administration'." Timmy read from his tablet.
"I guess I'll have to make the proposal now. Huh?" Techna asked the table as She was ready to open a new word document on her laptop.
"You guys do all the paper work. I can have it approved. I'll have my grandfather approve it after football practice later." Helia offered.
"Okay then. So let's go through plans for tomorrow. Tomorrow's going to be our main promotion day. We need to finish all paraphernalia today, to be sent out tomorrow. Why don't we meet by the park to finish it together?" Nabu asked.
"That's a good Idea. Football practice only goes for like an hour later so maybe 5-7? Let's have dinner in between." Sky suggested.
Everyone agreed and continued to eat their lunch. The squad has been helping Brandon since last year with his candidacy with student body president. He's been preparing for this over a year. Brandon's never been this competitive, and to think that the voting was going to take place next Monday, he was doing pretty well... mentally.
"Should we wake her up? She hasn't had lunch yet." Musa asked after closing the cap of her water bottle.
"Should we?" Krystal looked around the table looking for objections and other suggestions.
"Maybe we should it's the last 10 minutes anyway." Riven second the thought.
"Okay but whose going to do it? I'm definitely not going to." Stella said.
"I'll do" Brandon stood up walking towards Flora who was sleeping peacefully.
"Flo... Flora. Lunch time's almost done. You need to eat." Brandon shook his sister.
The younger Lynphea moaned hearing her brother. She opened her beautiful emerald green eyes, to find the gang all staring at her.
"Good Morning, Sleeping Beauty." Layla
greeted.
"Huh?" She rubbed her eyes.
"You've been asleep for the last 50 minutes." Karel spoke.
"Woah." She expressed as She checked her watch.
"I need to go and fix my things."
"Aren't you going to eat?" Timmy asked.
"No thanks. I'm full." The tan female replied as She tried to flatten her skirt.
"I have to go." She added beforehand She left the canteen.
The group was left with silence piercing through, while the whole cafeteria was still on a riot.
"Are you sure She's not sick or something?" Nabu asked the elder Brother.
"I hope not."
In the hallway, Flora was yawning her way to her locker. As She reached the East Wing of the campus, She heard a lot of laughter by the end of the hall. Laughter from some guys She never wanted to see.
She tried to shake the thought of seeing Nic again, hoping that his gang called 'The Breakers' would make a turn. Their name, only sounded immature to Her. Like as if a group of kindergarten boys would have named themselves.
She tried to fix her things as fast as She could. They got closer which made Flora shut her locker and walk quickly to History.
"Wait. This is Caramel." A guy also know as Troy Mason called her. She continued to walk knowing She'd make nothing productive out of them.
"Hey. Lynphea! Your brother stinks!" He shouted in the hallway which was slowly getting filled up with seniors.
She stopped, looked back at the group of laughing boys, thinking... She couldn't. She couldn't handle them when She's still this half awake.
"Woah, Woah, Woah. Tony. Respect the lady." Nicholas cut through Anthony Perkins.
"Yo Cole. Your ex needs to wake up and look who's She's supporting for President. She's obviously blind." A guy slapped Nicholas playfully in the back as He said loudly.
"Oh, Come on guys. That's why were here. To promote. So let's make her change her mind." Nicholas convinced his friends. He started walking up to her who froze.
"What's wrong Flower? Miss me?" He asked earning a slap from the Brunette after brushing her cheeks with his big hands.
"Ohhhh."
"She did not just do that!"
"Is that... Lynphea? His sister?"
"That gotta hurt."
"Wait. Did he just call her flower?"
The East hall filled with side comments. The dirty-blonde male was trying to keep his calm as his ex girlfriend showed no hint of regret. His gang had done nothing in response, no one has ever done this to one of the Woods twins.
"Leave my brother out of this." She whispered in his ear. She finally walked away, climbing up the staircase.
She left a shocked expression on everyone. How can a seventeen year old nerd hurt an eighteen year old Woods sibling, especially on the manly one...
Someone clapped faintly. "Hey." She looked at him waiting by the top of the staircase, still some students watching her ascend the structure.
"Hey." She returned.
"You know He's in our next class right?" The male with the navy blue hair asked chuckling.
"I know. I made a mistake... No he deserved ever piece of it." She realised as the Poet-man walked with her which they did everyday after lunch.
"You know It's only been 4 days." He continued walking by her side disregarding the eyes on him as He walked with the Lynphea.
"Why is high school life so complicated?" She said in frustration.
"Because High School gives you the best set of people to share this complicated life with"
"Stop enlightening me" She rolled her eyes. "Why? Are we not the friends you always wished for?" Helia asked.
She sighed, realizing what She had just said "Sorry bad mood." She said running her hand through her Caramel hair.
"Well, you better behave. I heard Griselda's extra angry today."
"How do you know?" Flora asked as She stopped in front of the History room.
"Krystal told me earlier, She was some kind of bull straight out of hell, all loud yells and banging of books." Helia shared.
"God. Can I skip class and just sleep in the clinic?" She asked slightly louder, emphasising her unpleasant mood.
"Wow. Flora Lynphea. Wants to skip class?" He said sarcastically topping Flora's voice.
"I'll say I'm sick" The Brunette replied.
"You're not the only one who hates history. I'll join the epidemic."
"I'm getting sick just watching you two." Nicholas appeared before the two seniors who were getting too close.
"You Jealous Woods?" Helia took a protective stance in front of Flora. He knew what guys like Cole do. Always make sure they get even or rather want themselves on top in all situations.
"Why? Should I?" Nic asked with a raised eyebrow and made more heads turn their way.
"You seem to be bothering her a lot." Helia replied with a stern face not bothering the crowding students.
"I just like my British girls." The boys behind Woods stayed silent.
"Well that's disrespectful." Flora spoke from behind the quarterback.
The hall started getting even more crowded, obviously the students observing the possible fight of the Greatest; The King and the Prince.
"Reality Check Bitch, You dated this disrespectful guy." He stated adding more fuel to the flame burning inside the brunette.
Behind Helia's strong face was a larger flame. He never liked his friends being bullied especially a girl like Flora.
Gasps and faint laughter could be heard from the sides.
Helia just burst, clenching his fists really tight which Flora held back with her gentle touch. "Helia. He's not worth it." The girl beside him whispered as She pushed him into the History room.
No one had slapped Nicholas Woods. No one had ever stopped Helia Knightly like that, He always went all beast mode when it comes to his friends. Everyone was left in the hallway. Where everyone started making up rumors and false news about the three.
Who was this Flora Lynphea and who is She to slap the School's Running back? Who is She to be authorized to talk to the School's Quarterback?
Once the two entered, Helia stopped at his chair at the back of the room. The Quarterback wished He had just picked a seat next to Flora. He was definitely not in the mood to deal with Nicole's friends and other girls. He just wanted to reverse time; when it felt like a fairy was holding him back. Holding him back from doing anything that would cause more problems to them.
She sat on her chair hoping that the events earlier would be left outside the classroom. She looked back and smiled at Helia who was obviously frustrated both mentally and physically. She looked down at his fists, still clenched as the seniors stared walking in the room.
"I hope you regret what you did to my brother."
She looked up. The worst nightmare She's had. Except that it wasn't a dream.
