Author's notes:
I hope you'll enjoy it. I'll be trying to mix things a bit with my writing style. I'm still not entirely satisfied with how it's looking in English, so gotta work harder to improve.
As always, thanks for everything, and see you next time :D
Ps. If someone wants to suggest an idea to this story or others, feel free to write :)
Ps. Ps. Chapter "the suffering" will have one more part.
13.11.2020 - a preview posted.
22.11.2020 - a whole chapter posted.
A little explanation:
Initially, I wanted the chapter to be longer. But... I have a lot of problems recently with free time to write. So, I decided to finish the chapter earlier and start working on the 3rd part of it as soon as I will have more time. As some of you might know, I'm still studying - tbh 2nd degree IT - and working fulltime as a software developer at the same time, so periodically, my free time is little to none-existing. And, it happened that it's currently the case. Sorry about that, I'll try to write something longer as soon as possible.
Evelynn's POV (sometime later):
If Evelynn was to say that she was grateful for having Akali, it would be a massive understatement. The magenta-haired woman did not think that she deserved everything that the young girl had already done for her. It was all true that she needed the raven-haired teenager to hug her, to somehow shield her from everything that she encountered during the ride here. If someone was to think about it, it sounded ridiculous. After all, she was an adult, she was self-proclaimed "diva" that would make the world tremble under her very feet. But… somehow, it was always Akali who took care of her. And… that, never ceased to amaze the lawyer. In fact, all Eve expected out of the teenager was to hug her for a moment. But, in the end, she received so much more. Not only Akali did as she promised, but as soon as the drinks were dealt with, she climbed on top of Evelynn's lap and gave her the strongest and warmest bear-hug in her life. The siren could not help but smile. Was it too cheesy to say that for the very first time in her life, the entirety of her world would fit inside of her arms? If she could ask for one favour from the Heavens, it would be for that moment to never end.
"Better?" Akali asked after a while, nuzzling up against the shoulder of her legal guardian.
"So much better," Eve replied in a whisper-like manner. "It never ceases to amaze me how much effect you have on me," she thought inside her mind. "Thank you, darling," she added instead.
"You are welcome," the young woman responded with a broad smile. "Eve… I need to go back to training, is that ok with you?" she asked shyly.
"Ahh… of course," Evelynn replied, brushing the cheek of her protégé with the thumb of her right hand. "After all, it's the reason we're here, isn't it?" she asked rhetorically.
"Yeah… you have a point there," the raven-haired girl smiled shyly. "So… I will see you later?"
"Oh darling, I'm not going to avert my eyes off of you," the magenta-haired woman chuckled. "Your cute little… not-so-little butt wouldn't forgive me such a crime," she teased, returning to her natural cheesy nature.
"Oh… right," the brown-eyed teenager murmured. "I guess… I have a stalker of my own," she chuckled lightly. "See you later, bye," she added, rose up and headed back toward the pitch.
"I just can't wait for that," the self-proclaimed diva uttered playfully.
The golden-eyed lawyer did as she said earlier. Her eyes never left Akali's frame even for a single moment. The tight football's outfit was highlighting every single possible detail of the girl's figure, and Evelynn could not deny that she loved every second of a show. For her, it seemed like an exclusive performance for one person, herself.
Soon enough, the raven-haired teenager got back to the pitch. Without an ounce of hesitation, the ninja ran toward the ball, reassuming her training with more than double effort. As always, Akali put everything she got into being best, into being perfect. No… who she wanted to fool, the raven-haired girl always gave more than 100% of herself into anything she was currently doing. Even though that sentence carried a sad meaning behind it, Rogue would not want it any other way. Go hard or go home, the words of one of the Hollywood's actors were her motto. With her eyes glued to the defined frame of the girl, Evelynn continued to watch her protégé doing her best to prepare for the upcoming match. A small smile playing on the diva's lips could be spotted.
As time went by, the weather started to get worse and worse. What seemed to be a beautiful sunny day quickly was fading away. The heavy dark clouds slowly were filling the skies as if the storm was just about to begin. The temperature went down slightly too.
"Hey," the loud solid feminine voice sounded close up.
"Hey," Evelynn replied automatically in a bit sassy voice, turning around.
"I knew it was you," the owner of the rich voice stated.
"Yeah… it's me, Kayle," the lawyer responded in a slightly bored tone. "What do you want? What's your business here?" she asked, trying to be polite.
"I came to watch my best student playing today," the platinum-haired woman shrugged. "The better question is, what are you doing here, Eve?"
"Heavenbound, Heavenbound, curious, aren't you?" the magenta-haired goddess said playfully. "But… I should act civilised, shouldn't I? As a matter of fact, I'm here to watch my protégé playing," she added with a small smile playing on her full lips. Even a single thought about the raven-haired girl had such an effect on her. If she thought about it, it was terrifying.
"Wait… wait, you're the legal guardian of Akali, aren't you?" Heavenbound asked a moment later.
"Yes, and I'm very proud of her," she exclaimed with a passion filling her voice.
"How would have thought that out of everyone, you'd do such a thing?" the teacher wondered loudly. "Anyways, I'm glad you gave that girl a place to stay, family," she added genuinely. "She has such a bright future ahead of her, it'd be a complete waste not to provide with everything she need to succeed."
"It's funny to admit, but I have to agree," the diva uttered. "She's worth more than one can describe."
"Wait… you're serious about her?"
"Probably the most serious in my whole life," the siren replied, shrugging.
"Ok… you're not exactly the material for mother or guardian, you know?" the shocked teacher uttered.
"To her… I don't feel like I'm a mother, to be frank… I don't know what I'm to her, but it doesn't matter till she's content with that," Evelynn whispered. "And you're right… I'm not material for mother, not now… probably I'll never be," she added.
"It seems that you've finally grown up, Eve," Kayle admitted.
"So it seems," the dive responded.
After that, the silence fell onto them. It seemed as if there was nothing more to be said. For maybe minute or so, the platinum-haired woman was staring at the magenta-haired lawyer. It was ridiculous, the girl she remembered all so well from her past grown into the legal guardian of her best student. If she was asked about it, she would certainly tell that such a turn of events she would never think about. After that quite sudden realisation, Kayle decided to sit next to her so-called 'friend' from the past.
"May I?" the teacher asked before taking a seat.
"Yes," Evelynn replied with a simple nod.
"Look… our last meeting didn't exactly finish on the good note, so…"
"Kayle," the golden-eyed beauty interrupted. "I know that, but if there is anything that Akali taught me, I can relate it to our situation," she added. "The past stays in the past. The life is too short to hold onto grudges."
"Wow… she has quite an effect on you," the shocked platinum-haired woman commented.
"Yes, she does," the siren responded with a small smile playing on her lips.
"On the side note, did you buy all of it?" the teacher asked, pointing out at the pile of soda located just a couple of metres away from them.
"Yes, I did," the magenta-haired woman replied cooly.
"For what reason, if I may ask?"
"It'd be a long story, I'd put it up that way," Evelynn responded.
"We have quite a lot of time, the match isn't going to begin in a quite a while. And on top of that, I'm already done with my classes today, so I'm all ears."
"Kayle, please," the golden-eyed beauty started, focusing on the teacher. "You don't have to act as if you like me. God… we both know that you hated my guts, at least for some time in the past. So… please, don't feel pressure to talk with me," she finished, shifting back her attention toward the raven-haired girl that she held dear.
"I know… I know that it might sound fake, but I'd like to start over," Miss Heavenbound uttered in a quiet voice. "I'm ashamed of myself, at least to some extent, for how I behave during our last meeting."
"Uhh… is that what you want?" the lawyer asked in a plain tone. "If you want my forgiveness, you've already gotten it," she repeated.
"It isn't about forgiveness I can get from you," Kayle replied in a whisper-like manner. "It's about me forgiving myself and learning from my mistakes."
"I see," the magenta-haired woman replied simply.
"If you don't mind, tell me that long story as you called it," the platinum-haired woman uttered after a bit of pause. "It intrigued me a bit, after all, I don't remember you being a long-story-teller," she added.
"You won't let it go, won't you?" Evelynn asked rhetorically.
"I won't," the teacher admitted.
"Let's just say that I didn't initially plan to buy that many bottles of soda, is this enough?" the lawyer sighed heavily, rolling her eyes.
"Where did you buy those?" Kayle asked another question. "But what intrigues me more is what changed your mind," she added a moment later.
"Fine… fine," Eve gave up surprisingly easily. "There is a small store not that far from here," she said, handing the teacher her phone with the navigation app running. "That's there."
"Oh… I thought that the shop there was closed due to the owner's bankruptcy," the music teacher started. "Yeah… I'm pretty sure that that business was shut down a couple of months ago maybe even sooner. It seems that someone bought it interesting," she was thinking aloud.
"I don't know honestly, I just got there by sheer luck," the golden-eyed beauty admitted. "I was talking with someone via phone, and after I was done with the call, I somehow ended up in front of the store," she explained.
"Who's in charge of that shop currently?" Kayle wanted to know.
"Ehh… it's run by the young woman," Eve stuttered slightly.
"Wait… is she handling that business alone?" the surprised teacher asked.
"It seems that way," Evelynn replied cooly.
"It's quite interesting, I'm not going to lie," the platinum-haired woman hummed under her breath. "How does she look like?"
"She's quite a beautiful young woman with violet eyes and black hair," the siren briefly described the owner of the shop.
"Wait for a second," Kayle slightly rose her voice out of a sudden. "She was the reason why you bought so much soda, wasn't she?"
"It's ridiculous," the diva scoffed. "Why would I do something like that because of Morgana?" she asked.
"Oh… so you know her name already," the blue-eyed woman pointed out. "Do you think about here as…"
"No, God-save no," Evelynn immediately interrupted the train of thoughts of Kayle. "She's pretty, I must admit that, but I feel like she isn't my type, that all," the golden-eyed beauty explained.
"Well… it's good, it'd make an awkward situation between you, her, and Akali," the teacher mumbled slowly. "That's it!" she exclaimed loudly. "You've helped her because she reminded you about Akali, didn't she?"
"I… I… fuck," the magenta-haired woman murmured, blushing slightly.
"Oh… it seems that I was right," the platinum-haired woman giggled a little. "Kind of a nice gesture from your side, I must admit," she added.
"Shut up!" Eve snapped.
"Hmmm… it might be the very first time I've seen you blushing genuinely," Kayle said slowly. "Mind passing me that address? I'll see how can I help her," she explained immediately.
"Sure…" Evelynn replied slowly. "She might be in your type, so… please be gentle with her," she added in a whisper-like manner.
"Come on… you were the one who always got what you wanted," Kayle replied in a serious tone. "In the past, you didn't care if you hurt someone, you just took whatever or whoever you felt like obtaining," she added. "I might be lesbian, and I might be dom, but I'm far from the level you presented. Take Talon as an example!"
"I know… I've used many people," the lawyer responded slowly. "I regret many things that I did in the past, but I can't change it."
"Have you ever thought about repaying those people for what you did to them?" the teacher uttered in a quiet tone. "You could do a lot, you know."
"Maybe… but I feel like the best I can do to any of them is to never meet them again," the golden-eyed woman said honestly.
"If you'd ask me – which would never happen – I'd say that you're running away from your problems," Kayle summed up. "But… I guess it's your life, you're going to live with the consequences of your decisions."
"Thank you for your understanding," the diva scoffed, lowering her head for a moment.
"But back to the original topic. You know… there is a saying – 'everything changes'. I just wanted to show my concern about you out of all people going to Morgana's shop alone," the living goddess added, emphasising the last segment of the sentence.
"Fine… I get it," the teacher huffed and turned around for a couple of moments. "Here's the deal… if you so badly don't want me to come there alone, go with me. How does it sound?"
"I think that it's reasonable," Eve commented Kayle's proposition. "When?" she asked a moment later.
"How about the next Monday?"
"Sure," Evelynn replied in a bored tone. "Are we finished here?"
"To some extent, yes," the platinum-haired woman replied immediately.
"Splendid, I'd love to watch my protégé then," the magenta-haired woman uttered.
"Hmmm… how about catching up? After all, it was quite a long time since we last met," Kayle made another proposition.
"Why would you want to catch up with me?" the bored diva said initially. "Wait… don't answer, you want to forgive yourself, so you're going to try to make up things between us, am I right?"
"Eve, look… I want to forgive myself, but I feel like I made you a villain in the world of mine, but didn't even try to doubt that decision," the blue-eyed beauty started. "All I've ever seen about you was your slut-like attitude, but I've never asked myself why you acted that way. I'd want to understand you more, to get to know you better, maybe then, I'll be able to repay you for all I did," she added, hanging her head low.
"Out of all people that I met, you consider yourself the one to caused some kind of trauma to me?" Evelynn whispered a moment later. "Don't be delusional, we might be enemies, but you never hurt me. Even though some of your words hunted me for years, I don't think you need to repay me for anything. If anything, I'm more than certain that I was more than an asshole way back in the past," the magenta-haired woman said quietly.
"I guess… it's safe to say that we were had our flaws back then," the music teacher chuckled softly. "But… it doesn't mean that we can not go past it, and maybe… become friends one day?" she added shyly.
"Hmmm… I truly wonder when Kayle 'Deathbringer' Heavenbound became such a softy?" the siren asked playfully. "I heard that after school, you joined the metal and as a second frontman. I hear that you made quite a name for yourself, tearing apart nearly all of the journalists that were stupid enough to spread gossips about you. I wonder where that fire, that wildness has gone because now, you seem more like a softy to me."
"You know… my scenery image is nothing more but the mask," the teacher confessed.
"I'd assume so, you've never been the diva, or frankly saying, the woman who could spit at someone's face," Eve replied with a soft smile on her lips. "To some extent, I thought that you tried to mimic me with that all-out attitude," she giggled a little.
"You wouldn't be that much from the truth if I was honest," Kayle sighed. "After I graduated from school, I wanted to express myself more, I wanted to be someone I wasn't. And the very first person who's attitude and image would suit my career was you," the musician added bluntly.
"Hmmm… that's interesting, I'm not going to lie," the siren summed up. "What happened with 'Pentakill' then?" she asked.
"We're good, we just decided that we need a little break," the frontwoman answered the question with a broad smile. "All of us… we're dealing with the same problem. When we're playing as 'Pentakill', we're different people than usual. After some time, it just getting harder and harder to pretend to be someone who you are not," the musician explained.
"Are you going to return, or…?" the magenta-haired lawyer asked. "I must admit, I like your songs, to some extent, it's like a fresh breeze in the music industry," she added genuinely.
"Thanks, that means a lot," Kayle smiled. "I think… I think we haven't shown everything that we have yet. It'll take some time, but we'll return. I'm 100% certain of that," the singer explained. "What about you? What path did you choose after school? As always you're wearing expensive clothes, so I'd assume that your job is well paid," she wanted to know.
"Yes… I can't nag about my incomes," the diva giggled a little. "I decided to become a lawyer. In fact, I already have my own agency and a couple of younger people working for me," she added with a spark visible in her eyes.
"Wow… I've always known that you're going to go big, and go far, but that… it's pretty impressive considering that we aren't that old yet," the rockstar admitted.
"Hmm… I'd say that it's more than I anticipated to accomplish. Still, it won't stop me from improving, growing my business. After all, it's me, Evelynn, the ever-star," the lawyer uttered with pride filling her voice.
"So… maybe a little bit of catching up won't be a bad idea, hmm?" the music teacher asked.
"I think… I think we can try and figure that out in a fly," the golden-eyed woman mumbled while replying.
Akali's POV (sometime later):
"Smith, come here," the very familiar voice of the coach reached the ears of the raven-haired girl.
"Sure, coach," she replied in a slightly risen voice and started to run toward the man.
"What's going on?" one of the players asked before reaching the ex-marine.
"It seems that our opponents do have some problems with their transport. So they're going to arrive at least an hour and a half later than it was planned. It's everything I have to tell you," the elderly man explained as soon as the team gathered around his.
"But coach, what are we going to do for than additional 90 minutes?" another player asked. "The weather isn't the best currently, and it seems that it's not going to improve anytime soon," he added with a hint of worries in his voice.
"You're men or girls?!" the trainer thundered. "As far as I'm concerned you can do whatever you want as long as you're going to perform at your top. I want all of you to give at least 100% as soon as our opponents arrive, am I clear?"
"Yes, sir!" the football team replied as one.
"Splendid! Get out of my face now!" he ordered in pissed voice.
The pissed-off man took his time to exit the pitch, going God-knows-where. The gathered players waited at least a couple of prolonged moments – in case the grumpy coach was still nearby – before starting to talk.
"Man, it's bullshit!" Alonso nagged after minutes of silence. "You're going to catch a cold if you're to play in such weather. They should cancel the match already."
"Al!" Trey rose his normally stoic voice. "Stop nagging already," the Asian warned his friend.
"Man… it's easy for you to say such things, you're immune to probably everything," the young man of Hispanic blood whined.
"Come on, Al if you started to run daily instead of playing video games, you'd have very similar immunity system as me," Trey pointed out. "There is no reason for you, or to be frank, any of us to whine. We have at least an hour more for ourselves before the leaders of the table arrive."
"We're going to lose," the blond man with quite an impressive physique said through the clenched teeth.
"Adam, stop talking bullshit!" the short brunet with broad chest uttered. "Based on what you're saying right now, we all should just quit and surrender before even the match begins. It's funny that you're calling yourself a true player," the boy scoffed. "With such an attitude, you're going nowhere."
"Shut up, dwarf!" Adam spatted aggressively. "And whom are you, Matt? A loser that can only smile after every defeat?"
"Ughh… Adam," the raven-haired striker called the aggressive boy. "He is right. If you already gave up in your mind, there is no point to even enter the match. You have already lost due to your own mentality," she said in a steel-cold tone. "Look," she started. "I know that on paper, we do not stand even the slightest chance against them, but maybe we could just try our best and see where it will lead us. It is a way better approach to it, or at least if you ask me."
"What fool allowed a 'girl' to play a game of men?!" Adam spatted once again. "You might be promoted to captain role, but I'm not going to respect it. You're just a cutty who gets everything she wants," he added venomously.
"Adam!" Trey and Alonso warned the blonde immediately. "You're not that stupid to believe in what you just said," the Asian added after a moment. "She earned the stop in the team due to her condition and abilities. You can dislike her, it's fine, but you can't deny that she's better than most if not all of us."
"You're just disgusting, simp," Adam replied. "You'll do anything to get into her pants, won't you?" he taunted.
"You…" Trey began to form a response.
"Trey, stop," Akali interrupted her friend, squeezing his left arm gently. "It is my duty as captain to solve the issues inside the team," she explained when the worrying gaze of Asian was noticed by her.
"As of you, Adam," she referred to the blonde in a steel-cold tone. "You can go to the restroom and changeup. You are benched. I will inform Sev that he is going to play instead of you," she decided.
"You can't do that!" Adam protested, shocked. "I'm a far better player than Severus," he pointed out.
"I do not think so," the raven-haired teenager replied, turning around. "The decision is sealed, you are not going to play today… and frankly saying, I will make sure that you will not play again. At least till I am the captain of this team," she added, not even sparing him a glance.
"Pfff," the blond striker scoffed. "You'll come begging me to play for that shitty team," he tried to taunt the brown-eyed girl. "You'll be kneeling before me, and maybe for some favour, I'll agree to return to that bunch of losers."
"I am really getting tired of men trying to boost up their ego," Rogue whispered. "I am tired of scums like you who offend me. You are so proud of anything that you have in pants that you are confident that all women in the vast world would just kneel before you and suck you up?" she added in a cold tone. Still, it could be felt that she was losing control over herself.
"Just say one more word… and I will not care about anything, but I will beat you up so badly that you will run away from the very sight of me!" the ninja threatened.
"I'd love to see you try, bitch!" Adam continued to taunt.
"Akali, he isn't worth getting into troubles," Alonso pointed out in a quiet tone. "But… after a moment of thinking, are you thinking about the same as me, team?" he asked the rest of the players.
"Yeah," they replied as one. "Let's give Adam a quick lesson, he certainly worked hard for it."
Before Akali could react, Matt punched the face of blondie. The hit was strong enough and so sudden that Adam lost his balance, and fell onto the grass in the very next moment. The pure shock and hurt could be spotted on his face. He was certainly angry, he even tried to stand up and fight, but the team did not allow him to do so. Trey and Matt immobilised both of his arms, leaving him defenceless. The Asian did not give the blondie more than a couple of seconds of rest before hitting him straight into the nose. As you might expect, the sound of cracking soon filled the air. The fresh blood began to leak out of the wounded nose of the blondie. Still, that meaningless detail did not stop the players from beating up the jerk.
For Akali, everything that took place right before her eyes seemed to be played in slow mode. Before she was able to react, the blond-haired boy had been struck at least a couple of times. Slowly the bruises started to form at his decently handsome face. The raven-haired girl knew that what her fellow teammates were doing was wrong, but there was an ounce of justice in their action. Still… she needed to act even though the young man deserved his fate.
"Stop, all of you!" the brown-eyed beauty ordered in a tone that would not accept refusal.
In a matter of a few next moments, she learnt that she was quite an authority among the other players. Her direct order was fulfilled without an ounce of hesitation. As if Trey and Alonso forgot about Adam, they let go of his arms and allowed him to fall onto his face. The blond-haired young man was so weak that he was not able to stand on his own. His handsome face was bruised and covered in fresh blood.
"Go for the nurse, please, Trey," Akali told the Asian. "Take him to the nearest bench, please," she asked the rest of the football team.
"Yeah, no problem Akali," they replied immediately, most of them scratching their necks in embarrassment.
"We kind of went too far," Alonso uttered quietly, lowering his head just like a small child waiting for a reprimand.
"Yes, I think so," Rogue replied in a whisper-like manner. "Still, thank you for standing for me," she added after a moment or so.
"For you… always, Akali," the man of Hispanic blood replied, giggling and scratching his nape. "I'm pretty sure that it's something that all of us would do for you. After all, you brought the life back to that team," he smiled, but could not hide a slight shade of pink that formed on his cheeks.
"Uhhh… are you blushing, big man?" the raven-haired teenager teased.
"You're the worst," Alonso whined.
"Nah… I am the best girl," the ninja chuckled. "But for now, you need to excuse me, the headmistress is storming in our direction. I need to explain the situation to her," she added while sighing heavily. "It is going to be quite a spectacular talk, I would bet for that."
"Good luck, captain," Al said, rushing toward the rest of the team.
As Akali mentioned, the head of the school was heading toward her. The visible anger was presented on her beautiful face. Her usual outfit was gone, for today the headmistress decided to wear tight casual denim and elegant shirt in the colour of night. The raven-haired girl noticed that the usual heels of the head of the school were not chosen today. Instead of them, Miss Laurent was wearing sport boots probably manufactured by Nike.
"Miss Smith!" she thundered while still a couple of steps away from the girl. "What happened here, I expect you to explain everything."
"With pleasure, headmistress," the brown-eyed beauty replied, with a slight bow to show respect. "Do you prefer the long or short version of the events?" she asked even though she already knew the answer.
"Of course, I want to know the full story. Don't play with me, Miss Smith!" the head of the school responded, visibly angry.
"As you wish, Miss Laurent," Rogue said obediently. "Maybe we should wait for the nurse to come before I start? Because of the heated situation that was caused by Adam, he is currently bleeding. He needs medical care," she informed the black-haired teacher.
"What?! Miss Smith, I need an explanation," the woman demanded.
"As I said, I will provide any pieces of information that you need, Miss Laurent. But, I feel like we should take care of Adam firstly," the raven-haired girl replied stoically.
"Where is he?" the headmistress asked immediately.
"I asked the team to bring him to the nearest bench. Currently, he is in no shape to stand on his own," Akali provided another piece of information. "Please follow me."
"I hope it isn't your doing, Akali," the head of the school uttered in a quiet tone. "You can be in massive trouble because of it," Fiora whispered.
"I can assure you that I am not the one to put the blame on, headmistress," the black-jet-haired girl said. "If anything, I stopped the whole situation from getting out of hands."
"I'm not really sure whether I want to know what happened," the head of the school hesitation for a moment.
"Understandably," the teenager hummed under her breath.
Evelynn's POV (in the meantime):
"What's going on there?" the interested music teacher asked out of a sudden.
"It seems that the team got into a fight," Eve replied, sighing. "It isn't something unusual, but something is telling me that Akali is once again getting her friends out of troubles," she sighed again. "It's quite worrying that out of all people she's always the one to explain the situation."
"Yeah… I can see that," the platinum-haired woman replied. "Should we investigate what's going on?" she asked shyly.
"I think Fiora will handle it herself," Evelynn said while checking her feed on her mobile.
"I wouldn't be so confident in that very matter," Kayle uttered quietly.
"What do you mean?" the siren got intrigued. "Something happened, hasn't it?" she asked while looking with a hint of worry at the teacher.
"She's doing a good job, but from time to time, she seems to have a bad day and everything she's touching ends up badly," the singer said slowly. "For example, I heard that you two found out that some of her male students were abusing girls, forcing them to have sex with them," she added.
"Ohh… that case," Evelynn gasped. "I've entirely forgotten about that," she admitted. "Fiora was acting strangely when the guilt of these boys was proven. I'd say that she didn't know what she was supposed to do, she was acting chaotically."
"That's true," Kayle agreed. "I feel like Fiora isn't good at handling very stressful situations that could possibly tear her reputation and shame her. But… so far these are only my thoughts."
"Hmm… maybe we should still let her handle that situation alone?" the magenta-haired goddess hummed. "After all, she won't learn anything if you'd be to deal with her problems instead of her."
"Yes… it's like a stalemate," the rockstar whispered deep in her thoughts. "It feels like whatever we'd decide to do would be a wrong decision to some extent."
"Sadly, I must agree with your reasoning," the siren sighed. "How about avoiding that topic for a moment, shall we?" she proposed.
"Yeah, it might be a good idea."
"Hasn't your phone beeped a couple of moments ago? I could have sworn that I heard the melody of one of your best hits," Evelynn asked after a moment or two of silence.
"Maybe, I'm not sure. I better check it, so we have clarity about that matter," the frontwoman responded with a small smile.
"You better," Evelynn chuckled.
"Fine, fine, fine, old hag," the blue-eyed teacher replied playfully. "Oh… fuck!" she murmured when the mobile was pulled out of the pocket.
"What's going on? Troubles in paradise?" the lawyer teased while scrolling through the notification feed of her social accounts.
"You can say that," the rockstar responded in a wavering tone.
"Hmmm… what happened then?" the curious diva wanted to know. "Spill the bean already," she added, averting her gaze off of the screen of her phone.
"Ehhh…" Kayle gulped, scratching the nape of her neck.
"For God's sake!" Evelynn uttered in slightly risen tone. "Tell me what's going on already. It's not like your freaking band is coming here now," she scoffed.
"The problem is that they in fact do," the platinum-haired woman said in a grave tone.
"Wait, what?!" the surprised siren squeaked. "You're joking, right?"
"I wish," Kayle responded quietly. "They asked me to hang out with them," she added.
"Hmmm… after a moment of thinking, it doesn't sound so bad," Eve hummed. "What's the problem, cause I'm – as you can see – unable to comprehend one?"
"Ughhh… fine," the teacher sighed heavily. "Fiora informed me a moment ago or so that the match is postponed for at least an hour," she tried to explain.
"And?"
"And… she asked me if I can figure something out to entertain the students that are already gathering here."
"Oh… it seems that your problem was resolved without your intervention then," the magenta-haired woman chuckled. "Ask your band to come here and play for fun," she proposed. "If you want… you could even ask Akali to help you."
"Yeah… I figured that out that she'd be more than willing to help. Still, the problem remains, she wouldn't have the gear to play with," the rockstar sighed.
"Oh… about that I wouldn't worry. Her gear was delivered yesterday, and I forgot to tell her about that fact. Upps," she giggled. "So, her guitar and stuff are packed into my car that. By some miracle is parked only a couple of minutes of walk from here," the diva explained.
"Eve! I love you!" Kayle squeaked, trying to hug the magenta-haired beauty.
"You're welcome, but for God's sake, get those hands of yours off of me!" the golden-eyed woman giggled. "Let's go then, there isn't much time left."
