Chapter 17 - CHAPTER 17 - Piggyback Ride

Drake and Alys are still next to each other in the stock room. Hmmm. It's a rare opportunity to lean on the shoulders of a persona nongrata, Drake Palma!

"Sheen.."

Alys is currently sleep talking. Hahaha Poor Alys, she is still bothered by what Sheen said to her earlier. Her first love! As they say, a person who is used to being alone is dangerous — because if someone shows concern, chances are they will like each other. Law of nature, guys. That's really it. That's why heartbroken people often find new shoulders to cry on.

It's like that!!

"Tsk," Drake said.

Apart from the fact that his shoulders are heaving from the weight of Alys' head (at the same time he is also wondering why Alys' head is empty), he is also annoyed because he did not spend time in Japan. He is still here in St. Claire's! He looked at his wrist watch, 4 a.m. by the way. It's just a matter of time, the sun will rise.

He felt that Alys was getting cold, because she was shaking a bit. It's also August, the September month is near, so maybe it's already cold. He slowly removed his coat and put it on Alys. Be very careful Drake! Maybe because what else will he touch and then what else will Alys accuse him of!

''Weird girl,'' Drake said to Alys.

But gosh! Drake was happy with Alys because of what she said last night.

*6 a.m.*

ALYS' POINT OF VIEW

(-_-)

Why do I seem to be moving?

(-_-)

Why moving still?

"Drake?!!"

Come on, come on! Why am I on a piggyback ride with Drake Palma??! Oh noes! Besides, it's morning! Come on!! Mommy and daddy will scold me! I said last time I would be back around 12 from acquaintance party!!

It's annoying!

"Shh," Drake said.

"Why did you pick me up?" I asked him.

Why did he leave me, right?? I know that's sweet, lol, but it's weird! Who was I with last night?? That's Neil!! That megalomaniac Neil! Grrrr. After he held my pearl, he would leave me in the stockroom and then I would wake up to Drake carrying me home??

"Ouch!" I screamed.

Am I supposed to leave??

"Why did you drop me??"

"You're noisy," he said.

"I wish you had told me before you did it!! Grr," I said while holding my leg.

The pain.

He sat down in front of me again, "hop on."

"Tch," I said then I rode him again.

Thank you for the pain when I fell so I couldn't walk!! This man is not really a gentleman!! What if I was broken by what he did?? It's okay. At least I won't be in for a few days. No physics, no calculus, no wheat.

Wehehe.

"Ah-ah," said Drake, "what the hell?! Are you trying to kill me?!"

(0.0)

"Huh??" I asked.

What did I do again?

\ (0.0)/

"You wanna suffocate me to death??"

I looked, he was holding his neck. Did I choke him??? Oh noes! Do I have a tendency to choke unconsciously?? I think I need to see a doctor.

I'm dangerous!!

"S-sorry," I said.

Come on! Drake turned almost purple earlier! What am I doing!!

"Tch," he said then.. T-done..

*gulp*

B-He opened the button on the neck of his longsleeves.

One..

Two..

Thr-- only up to two buttons, Alys! Don't assume!!

"Sorry, Drake. I didn't mean to.."

(-_-) ---> normal Drake Palma face.

"Forgiven and forgotten. Hehe," I said.

"Tsk. Weird," he said weakly.

"I'm not weird!! You're weirder!!"

He didn't pay attention to me anymore. As usual. What's new, right?

We walk to my house. Hmm. Usually, it's only a 10 minute walk! Why does it seem like 20 minutes when I'm with Drake Palma??

"Alright, just here. Sa. la. ( 0.0 ) Daddy? Mommy?"

Why are mommy and daddy waiting outside the gate??

"Why did you just come home now, Alys Zyril Perez?"

*gulp*

I looked at Drake: messy hair, no coat, two buttons of longsleeves open.

I looked at myself: messy hair, wearing Drake's coat, pale from nervousness.

Oh noes!!

AYA'S POINT OF VIEW

(~~)

"Dear, who drove you last night?"

What's wrong with my mother?? Just saw a man with me and she thought a miracle had happened in our house!

"Cockroach," I said.

Hahaha 9 a.m. just then my mom woke me up to ask about the earth louse Kent Justin Valdez! Grrr!

"Hihihi. Maybe that's your suitor, Gabriella," she said and then put some cereal on my plate.

What the hell, my mom feels like a teenager. Good thing my father doesn't divorce her!

"Yuck, mom. Don't call me Gabriella. Kadiri."

Hahaha My lungs hurt! I could barely breathe in what I was wearing last night!! Then I got sick from what that Kent was saying! Grrr! I don't want Monday anymore! I'm sure it will mess me up!! Annoying!! Instead of the Seducing Drake Palma plan of Alys, I'll take care of it, I'll add Get rid of Kent Justin Valdez.

(-_-)

After I ate, I went up to my room. Mehehe. I miss my voodoos.

I opened my laptop and continued my research. Hmm. This is just the information I have gathered.

Drake is so frustrating!! How can I talk to Alys if the information I know is only this superficial?? Duh! Not even what is love or what do you find attractive most??

That Palm is really trivial!!

This is his facebook page, only stolen pictures of him. (-_-) Seriously, his stalkers are creepy!!

Hahahaha!
