The Seven Realms series belongs to Cinda Williams Chima
With that said, Han took a deep breath, walked in the school and head for his classroom.
Han felt nervous not because he was late but because Dancer would be in class with him. Dancer sat next to Han, they would talk, do classwork, study together, crack jokes. Han wonder if it would be different now that Dancer knows. "I have to let go of this for now. Right now, I have classes, I'll talk to him after school. Hopefully I don't make this more awkward than it already is." As Han was about to turn around the corner, someone else from the opposite side of the corner walked into Han with books in their hands.
"Eek!", cried the student. "Oof!", Han fell back on his side. Both were on the floor, " Bones... I'm sorry mate, I uh... didn't see ya there." said Han. Han looked at the other person, it was a girl but not just any girl.
"Watch where you are going you idiotic peasant", Fiona said harshly.
"Shit", Han said under his breath. Han doesn't normally cuss, but in situations like these, especially when the person he doesn't want to see is here, why the hell not?
When Fiona looked who it was who bump into her, her face went from cold to apologetic. "Alister! Forgive me I- I didn't mean what I said", she said nervously. Ever since the offer Fiona made a while back at the library, she has become more... "nicer" to Han. She tries her best but, Fiona will aways be Fiona.
The Ice Queen.
"Wow... Fiona Bayar wanting my forgiveness from someone like me, I feel honored", Han said sarcastically. Han got up and dusted himself off. Fiona though, looked like she was having trouble. "Oww... I think I sprain my ankle", she said rubbing her ankle. "Would you kindly give me a hand." Fiona put her right hand towards Han. Han was reluctant to do so but the charming person within him couldn't help himself. He grab Fiona's hand pulled her up. Han saw what looked like Fiona smirking and he sense danger. But it was too late.
Fiona wrap her left arm around Han's neck around and her right on his side and kissed him passionately on his lips. Han was in a state of shock and anger, "not this again." Han pushed Fiona away, not wanting what she was giving. He had to think about Cat now, if she saw him like this; well... goodbye little Alisters. "Back off Bayar, I didn't help you up just so we can smooch." Fiona grumbled
in disappointment. "Why not? You deserve a reward. A kiss is not enough?"
Fiona blushed deeply, "well... we could go to one of the empty classrooms and-." Han was getting irritated and put up his hand to stop Fiona's sentence. "Hold up there, I don't want that either. In fact, I don't want anything from you. What we talked about at the library, I didn't agree to it." Fiona smirk "but you didn't refuse, you said you will think about." She's right, Han was thinking about. He was gonna refuse her request but then thought about how much of her help would benefit him in the future. So Han said he was thinking about, he would say yes later in the week but had to be sure if she won't be a danger to him. He had to work in getting her trust, but he'll do it without unzipping her dress.
"I'll give you my anwser later in the week", Han said. Fiona smiled like there was hope.
"Anyways, we have to get to class now so-" Fiona put her hand up, "I'm afraid that won't be necessary. Adam has partner up the class, we will be practicing charms with one another." Han staired at her confused. "What about reviewing for the exam tomorrow." Fiona placed her hand on her hip. "He is pushing that to a later date, right now he wants us using charms on each other. He asked permission from the dean and she said yes."
Han was relief but upset, he had been studying so much but now, he felt like it was kinda wasted.
When Fiona said partners, he thought of Dancer. "If we are partnering up, then I should go fine Dancer." Han was about to walk past Fiona but she stop him where he was. "The copperhead already has a partner, he is partner up with Micah. Can you believe that? This is a good opportunity for Micah to embarrassed your little friend." Han was doubtful, Dancer would be ready if Micah tried anything. Han thought if this was best, to let Dancer cool down a bit. It would be better for Han and Dancer to speak later.
"Then... who's my partner?", Han said. Fiona giggled and smiled, "That would be yours truly. Since you didn't show up and I was left with no one, Adam partner me up with you and told me to tell you. I was about to come to your dorm but then you bumb into me." Han felt like he couldn't catch a break. Dancer was mad at him, Adam might preparing to punish him later when he went back to class, had to tell Rebecca later that he couldn't make it to their meeting and now, had to deal with Fiona's advance towards him. There was also Cat's recital later tonight.
"Hanalea, please strike me down where I stand", Han thought hopefully. But nothing came.
Han sigh with disappointment, "Lets get going... partner...".
Fiona smiled, "First, lets pick up these books first." Han help pick up her books. "Oh and Alister, we won't be going to class. Adam said we are free to go around the campus and practice charms, and I know just the place", Fiona said.
Han was happy and sad, happy he didn't have to deal with Adam but sad that he had to deal with Fiona. But he will have to deal with it.
Han and Fiona left the school to go to a more greener and more private area to practice charms on each other. Han would be on his gaurd if Fiona tried anything dangerous. Also be on his gaurd if she start advancing towards him. He was with Cat now, can't be cheating on her. Han wasn't the type to cheat, but he was the type to have dangerous company.
Han told himself he wouldn't hurt Cat again, he'll show her love and respect.
Fiona and Han reach their destination. This was the time where Han would be tested. If he can live up to that promise.
To be continued.
