Lilly watch closely and saw it was the boy from earlier, Her heart started to beat fast as she recalled the way he touched her in the hallway.
"Lilly, Are you okay?" Marcel asked, reached out his hand, felt her forehead with the back of his palm.
" You dont seem to have a fever either." He added.
"I am fine, thank you." Lilly said nervously.
" He is so dreamy!" Beatrix said while holding Marcel hand.
" yeah." Marcel replied in a low voice, grabbed his bag and lunch tray and stood up to leave, Lilly grabbed his hand and asked"Why are you leaving early, you are not even done with your lunch."
" I lost my appetite, so, am just gonna go." He replied as he tightened his grip on his bag.
Lilly knew the reason why Marcel left, it was because Marcel liked beatrix a lot but unfortunately she didn't seems to notice that and only thought of him as a friend. This had hurt Marcel a lot of times and can't seem to get over her but fall harder for her.
"What's up with him, is he going through puberty?" Beatrix asked.
"you can ask him, why me?"Lilly shrugged, pick up her lunch tray and bag leaving beatrix behind.
" Oh come on, wait for me do you have to always leave me behind!" Beatrice shouted, hurriedly carry her stuff and ran to catch up with Lilly.

Alex who was seated opposite Lilly's table, he was watching how they were interacting, his face darkened when he saw Lilly interacting with a boy. He didnt know why he was getting mad, he was confused why he was feeling this way.
"Hey, Williams." Someone with a husky voice greeted.
Alex broke free from his thoughts, raised his head to get a look at the person's face and he turned out to be his friend, Liam. Liam is Alex childhood friend, they have been friends since the first day they got enrolled into kindergarten, They didn't really like each other during their first interaction but grew close to each other as time went by.
"Hey, Man."Alex returned the pleasantry.
"So, you back for real this time?" Liam asked, sat beside him and took a sip out his milk.
"So, how is your Mom?"Liam asked softly.
"Eh, she is fine." He answered helplessly, biting into his sandwich.
"I really miss her a lot and her food." Liam said.
"I am going to see her, wanna come?"He asked, raising an eyebrow, taking a bigger bite of sandwich.
"Heck yeah!" Liam said happily, revealing his front row teeth.
"Dude, you keep looking towards that table, what's wrong?" Liam asked as he squinted his eyes at Alex.
"Nothing, okay." Alex replied and Jabbed him with his elbow.
"Okay, if you say so."Liam said, raised his hands in the air like he surrendered.
"The girl in white is new, isn't it?" Alex asked, pointing to Lilly.
"I knew it!" Liam said, wriggling this eyebrow with a sly smile on his face.
"Will you quit those improper thoughts." Alex said and smacked Liam's head.
"Hey, what was that for!" Liam shouted in pain, glaring at Alex for smacking him so hard that he felt the world was spinning.
"That was to make you quit having improper thought."Alex spat, returning the glare.
"Okay, fine, I will tell you." Liam said helplessly.
"She transfered here the week you left for a break, She is a straight A's student, she is actually nice but can be col-"Liam was interrupted by Alex, "Yeah she is cold beca-" Before alex could finish what he was saying Liam shouted sounding annoyed. " Will you let me finish!", Alex instantly zipped his mouth.
"Thank you, Like I was saying, she can be cold but she is cool. She has three friends and they are beatrix who is her best friend, Marcel and Martha, Marcel's sister. She has a younger brother who is about the age of ten, A mom and a dad." Liam added.
"That all what you know about her?" Alex asked.
"Yeah, What else do you want me to know about her, sheesh". Liam said.
"Do I look like I work for the CIA?"Liam asked with a questioning glare.
"Hmm, you might." He replied with a small smile.
The Bell rang, the both of them made their way into their classes they both have different classes so they had to go separate ways.
