CALLIXUS ACADEMY: Captivated By The School Hearthrob 17 Confirmed

"Shhh we're going to get caught!"

"She's coming! Act normal!"

Reverix was currently snooping around Samantha's cla.s.sroom. They were already doing this for the whole morning. They were all curious about the result of Raviel's idea. Could she really be either a hunter, a witch, or a werewolf?

It's lunch time.

As soon as Samantha stepped out of the room, like the flash, the boys immediately hid themselves behind the pillars on the school hallway. As soon as Samantha started to walk, they also started to follow her. She was still holding the coffee bottle on her hand.

Samantha went to the tree at the back of the school where Caleb dragged her from before. She wanted to be alone right now, she was still sleepy.

She sat down and rested her back on the tree trunk then stared at the coffee bottle she was holding.

"I will understand it soon?" she asked herself, remembering what her mom said about her feelings for the second suitor. Could she really like Caleb without her noticing her own feelings?

She twisted the cap of the bottle and opened it.

"She's going to drink it!"

"Yes drink drink!"

"Samantha I've been looking for you. Why did you leave the room?"

Samantha halted her actions.

All of Reverix face palmed themselves.

It was Ezekiel.

Samantha immediately closed the bottle and looked at Ezekiel, "Why are you looking for me?" she asked him.

"I just want to have lunch with you," he told her and walked closer to Samantha.

"I'm not really hungry," she answered then covered her eyes using her arm.

"Can I accompany you?"

"I want to be alone for now Eze,"

"You can use my shoulder to sleep on,"

"No, I'm okay,"

"But your back will hurt,"

"It won't,"

"But--"

"Just this hour Ezekiel, give me my peace of my mind!" she answered him in gritted teeth.

"Okay then, I'll see you at cla.s.s," Ezekiel smiled sadly at her then turned around to leave.

Samantha suddenly felt guilty. Was I too harsh? Ugh whatever, I'm sleepy!

After a few minutes.

"Groggy when sleepy?"

The moment Samantha heard that, she already knew who the owner of the voice is.

"Leave me alone Caleb," she said, irritated.

Are they really going to pester me all day!? Can't I just get my sleep peacefully!

Suddenly, Samantha felt someone pull her head softly, she moved her arm covering her eyes and looked up to see Caleb looking at her, "This will be more comfortable," he said then patted her head. Caleb had rested her head on his shoulder.

Samantha's heart suddenly raced.

"What do you think you're doing!" she said, trying to get up but Caleb pulled her head back.

"Making you comfortable. I clearly told you to drink that coffee so you won't sleepy, now look at you," he said reb.u.t.ted.

"I'm fine! Just leave me alone," she pulled herself back up and rolled her eyes at him.

"Drink the coffee first, the I'll leave," he told her which made her raise her brows.

"You will leave me alone if I drink this?" she said then lifted the coffee bottle up.

"Mhmm," Caleb nodded his head.

Samantha immediately opened the bottle and chugged down its contents in one go.

"Happy? Now get lost," she told him.

Caleb patted her head, "Good girl," he said then stood up and left.

"Nice one Caleb!" Jake said then gave Caleb a high five.

"Now all that we have to do is observe her, the potion may take 5 mins or less to take effect," Raviel said and rubbed his palms together.

"Are you sure the potion will work?" Caleb asked.

"100% sure, tried and tested," Raviel answered.

After 3 minutes of waiting, all of them heard a loud sneeze.

"It's confirmed! She's a supernatural being!" Raviel jumped in excitement.

"Oh G.o.d, she is," Jake covered his mouth due to shock.

"Who would've thought that she isn't human?" Klay said.

"Yeah, she's good at hiding herself," Ravelo added.

On the other hand, Caleb sighed in relief. He was thankful that she wasn't a hunter, or else they'd be enemies.

"So what do we do now? Do we ask her?" Klay asked.

"Let's get Caleb to do it," Jake suggested.

"What do you mean?" Caleb raised his brows.

"Simple, now that we confirmed her ident.i.ty, you go ask her if she's a wolf or a witch. That simple," Jake said.

"But will she answer me? As you can see, she was hiding herself. What more to me?"

"Hmmm, you have a point," Jake said then rubbed his chin, "Then what do we do now?" asked.

"It's either we ask her or give her another determining potion," Raviel said.

Now, they have confirmed that Samantha was a supernatural being. But what they have to find out now is what she is. A witch or a werewolf.

"What do we do if she's a werewolf?" Jake asked out of nowhere.

"Ask her to join our pack?" Klay answered.

"Right! The first ever female member of Reverix. How exciting would that be!" Jake clapped in excitement.

"But we still don't know what she is, let's not go imagining things," Caleb suddenly said, but deep inside he also silently wished that she was a werewolf.

How good would it be to have the girl he liked on his pack?

"Let's go now, we already skipped our morning cla.s.s," Raviel said.

The group then, headed for their afternoon cla.s.s.

"Achoo!"

"Are you okay Samantha?" Ezekiel asked Samantha worriedly, she was already sneezing for about half an hour now.

"Yeah, I think *achoo* I got the *achoo* colds," she said then wiped her nose using her handkerchief.

"You want me to bring you to the clinic?"

"No need *achoo* I can *achoo* go myself," she said then stood up and excused herself from her professor.

Why am I suddenly sick?

Arriving at the clinic, Samantha asked the nurse for some medicine for colds then headed straight to a bed and lied down.

"Achoo!" she sneezed once again.

"Suffering from colds?" a voice suddenly spoke. She didn't even need to think about whom the voice belonged to. She didn't bother answering and just tried her best to sleep.

Suddenly, the curtain doesn't dividing her bed from the other bed opened and there was Caleb.

"Drink this, it will help," he said then handed her a cup of honey lemon tea.

It actually contained the antidote for the potion. If she didn't drink it now, she'll have suffer from sneezing all day.

"I already *achoo* drank medicine *achoo* I don't need that," she answered Caleb.

"Can you stop being so hard headed? Just drink it," he told her, his voice raising a little. What a troublesome girl!

Samantha sat down irritatedly and grabbed the cup from Caleb's hand. She blew the liquid first, then sipped a little, "Happy?" she said the sneezed once again.

"Finish the whole cup," Caleb said then stood up and left.

Samantha just stared at his back that slowly went out of her sight. He's being to caring towards her. Was this his way of showing his feelings?

First, he gave her coffee for her sleepiness and now a cup of hot honey lemon tea for her colds.

Suddenly, Samantha felt a little bit guilty. Caleb had done a few things for her sake today and she haven't thanked him, not even once yet.

She continued to drink her tea until she finished it. She laid back down in bed and slept.

After a few hours, a touch on her face suddenly woke her up. Samantha opened her eyes and saw Ezekiel.

"I'm sorry did I wake you up?" he said in a soft voice.

"No, it's okay," Samantha answered him and sat down, "Why are you here? You still have cla.s.ses right?" she questioned him.

"Cla.s.ses already ended an hour ago, I just didn't want to wake you up," he said.

Samantha looked at her watch and saw that it was already 6:30 in the evening. She suddenly gasped in shock, "My mom is probably worried now!" she said and rushed out of bed.

"Don't worry I already informed her," Ezekiel told her.

Samantha sighed in relief.

"Your colds are already gone, that's fast," she heard Ezekiel.

Yeah, he was right! She wasn't sneezing anymore!

Her eyes suddenly fell on the cup on top of the side table. He was right, it was really effective.

"Sam, can I ask you something? I want you to answer me honestly," he said, his eyes were somehow filled with a hint of sadness and worry.

"What is it?" Samantha asked him anxiously. She wasn't used to seeing Ezekiel like this.

"Do you like Caleb already? Are you growing feelings for him?" he asked her, looking straight into his eyes.

Samantha's throat suddenly tightened. What was she supposed to answer?

She didn't even know her own feelings, how can he answer him?

Minutes of silence have pa.s.sed between them when Ezekiel suddenly stood up and rushed towards Samantha and pulled her into a kiss.

It was just a a quick 10 second touch of their lips. Ezekiel pulled away from the kiss and looked Samantha straight on the eyes, "Can't it be me? Can't I be the one you like?" he asked her, searching her eyes for answers.

Samantha just stood there frozen in her place. She was still in shock and just stared at Ezekiel with her eyes wide open.

What just happened? And what was he saying?
