Chapter 14: The Shy Ones Always Get Picked On
[*]
Evergreen Valley Elementary School Cafeteria
It was the next day after Turquoise and Caesar accidentally fused, and Turquoise was eating her lunch at the cafeteria. Just then, Caesar approached Turquoise and sat down next to her.
"Hey Turquoise." said Caesar.
"Hey Caesar." said Turquoise.
"I couldn't get over last night." said Caesar.
"What, us fusing?" said Turquoise.
"Not just that," said Caesar, "I had a lot of fun last night fused with you I must admit, I just can't get over you kissing me."
"I wasn't thinking right last night," said Turquoise, "I'm sorry if it was so sudden, I mean, I barely know you."
"No no," said Caesar, "I enjoyed it."
"You really didn't mind me kissing you?" said Turquoise.
"I didn't mind," said Caesar, "in fact, I enjoyed it. You are a beautiful girl, and you're magic, you're smart, and you're kind. I think I really do love you."
Turquoise blushed, her cheeks never this red before.
"So, does this mean we're dating now?" said Caesar.
"Maybe," said Turquoise, "I don't know for sure, I'll need some time to get to know you more, then we'll see."
"Well, alright." said Turquoise, "Will your parents mind if we do date?"
"Oh no, they won't mind," said Turquoise, "in fact, they'll probably be very happy that I'm dating. In fact, our relationship seems very similar to my parents'."
"Well, I guess I'll see you later." said Caesar.
"Okay." said Turquoise.
Caesar then got up and walked back over to his original spot. Turquoise looked to Caesar.
"He seems to understand me a lot." thought Turquoise, "Maybe he is the right one for me. Well, I guess only time will tell, I need to get to know him better."
Turquoise smiled and continued eating her lunch.
"Only time will tell."
School Hallway-Two Hours Later
Turquoise was walking through the crowd of students to her next class. There were students everywhere around her. It was hard to get through the crowd without bumping into some. Turquoise was near her classroom before she accidentally bumped into another student, causing him to drop his books.
"Hey, what's the big idea?" said the student, who turned around to Turquoise.
"I'm sorry I bumped into you." said Turquoise.
"Well maybe you should look where you're going." said the student, "Hey, you're that Universe girl, you're supposed to be magic, you have like a sword or something?"
Turquoise nodded.
"Show me." said the student.
"On school grounds? No." said Turquoise.
"Are you scared of getting in trouble?" said the student.
"That's exactly the point." said Turquoise.
"Are you a coward or something?" said the student, "You disgust me."
Turquoise said nothing.
"Oh, a shy one huh?" said the student, "What are you gonna do if I do this?"
The student then pushed Turquoise, causing her to almost lose her balance.
"Why don't you do something about it? You're magic." said the student.
Turquoise did want to do something about the student, but she didn't want to get in trouble either.
"What are you gonna do huh?" said the student.
"Hey!" said a familiar voice behind the student.
There stood Caesar behind the student.
"Don't you dare hurt her." said Caesar.
The kid looked to Caesar in fear. The student then grabbed his books and race walked out of sight.
"Wow, you saved me." said Turquoise.
"Yeah, I don't approve of bullying at all, especially when it's directed at my friends." said Caesar.
"He was really scared of you." said Turquoise.
"Yeah, that's what happens when you're captain of the football team, people are scared of you." said Caesar.
"You're captain of the football team?" said Turquoise.
"Yeah." said Caesar.
"Well, atleast I know one more thing about you, that's progress." said Turquoise.
"Yeah, progress." said Caesar.
"You know," said Turquoise, "I think I love you too."
Caesar smiled.
"Well, see you later." said Turquoise.
"See you." said Caesar.
Turquoise then walked through the crowd. Turquoise looked back at Caesar.
"Maybe he truly is the perfect match for me." thought Turquoise.
