MESSAGE @ Acting Club members :213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSR1iM5p5he
I have said this yesterday, but for the sake of those who has ALREADY forgot, I'm going to repeat myself. Please quickly and carefully choose a partner before our next meeting on Monday. 213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekBZjLQ1S3
P.s this is a requirement if you want to join the comp. - Josh -
"WHAT?" I thought out loud.
It was probably because of my unnotified absence last Friday, and me forgetting to check in, that I haven't been informed of this news.213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaSNhNjqQl
It was my fault, yes, but still, it was my right, as a member, to be notified in person (when everyone else except me knows.)
Seriously, what do they think of me as?213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnPAv2WrxU
Someone who comes in meetings to have a freaking tea party?
No-one has even bothered to tell me we had to choose a partner before today.213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvXDyb6Pt2
And I think it's all because of the doings of one certain person who practically loathes me.
I licked my lips, "Josh, that guy."
As I closed the tab of the notice page, trying to ease myself, a message from Les popped up from the top of the screen.

[MAXWELL] Les, where are you213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaa3EZonHi

[MAXWELL] I swear im going to send your ass flying to mars if ure still not here
By the time I've finished reading his messages, I was already up and running through the corridors.
It was more of the usual kind of things I do to be late, but I figured, today was a nice enough day to be a little early and get back at Josh Miller.213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkZCyOmpH3
Stupid guy plotting a scheme like this, and involving others with it.
Also someone was waiting for me. It wasn't up to my choice now that I was in a situation like this.
She had no partner left, other than me. So even if I hadn't agreed to her request, it was still my responsibility to show up.213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDCeRCqxrz
Really..213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRNBggvoQQ
How did I get into this situation..
Soon, the supply of oxygen I had was running short, and I needed a few seconds to breath. I looked around to know where I was, and fortunately I recognized the place.
I was in the 2nd level, the room to where the meeting is always held just on the level beneath. The hallway wasn't as wide as the upper level, and in the right of one corner, there was a set of stairs that could be seen.
I ran down to level 1 as I grasped on to the stairs' banister for support. I tried not to sound like a dying tortoise when I reached the room.
I opened the wood paneled-door with all my energy left, but no-one has noticed my presence. They were all so quiet and frozen that I wondered if this was the club I walked into, or if it's really just a military camp in disguise.
"Dominique. Look at me," the club leader said, inching forward to the girl who had her head down the entire time, "Where is your partner?"
"I don't have one."
"What do you mean you don't have one? Tell me, if you wanted to join the competition so much, then wouldn't you have bothered to actually look for one-" He was then interrupted by the sudden sound of my voice.
"I'm her partner, Miller. So stop lecturing her. It makes your reputation shittier than it already is."213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQB3fEtQ87M
I closed the door shut, and kept my hands in my pockets, walking to where Alaina was standing. If I had known that she would be the one in trouble because of my choice. .
"And what is this guy doing here?" he asked the person beside him, undoubtedly ignoring my last response or just me in general, "Don't tell me-"
"Like I said, I'm this girl's partner," I looked at Alaina, giving out messages asking for her to play along through, hopefully, telepathy.
"Ah, yES! HEY CAMILO! Why did you come so late huh?"213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhTCUxUYjJ
She smacked my back, and laughed in an awkward manner, "Because of you, I had to lie and say I didn't have a partner and-"
I held on to her wrist and acted as if I was the one innocent here, "YOU! Why are you blaming me, you stupid?! You were the one who came to my apartment at 2am last night asking me to-"
She pulled her hand away, and covered my mouth immediately.213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoBk2EhVE2
I swear, by this moment, I didn't need to read minds to know how much she wanted to disappear like that genie in Aladdin.
If this little partnership of ours meant continually embarrassing my partner and making Josh speechless, which by the way, he is right now, then I definitely didn't make a wrong decision.213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEh8VE1vAG
It's a win-win.
Josh, who was in front of us, stared at me with a bleak expression for so long that someone had to remind him to get on with the announcements.
I wanted to say 'how'd it feel being like trash for once' in his face, but nah, he always was anyways.
He sighed, "Let's end our meeting now. Anywhom, the partners are confirmed so I'll be pinning all the info. in the bulletin board tomorrow. You guys have a few days to 'absorb' the information," He then put the papers he was holding down, "and just so you know, there's no backing out. Starting next week, all who has partners need to attend each week's meetings. It's not optional."213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ped2Ixarx
The way he said it and the expression in his face seemed like the last part was aimed directly at me. If words could kill, though, that certainly didn't.
Everyone replied with a listless 'yes', and went off in their separate paths with their partners. Slowly, the room became empty, and Alaina and I were the only ones left.
The first few seconds were a bit awkward, but that seemed to have disappeared when I turned to face her.
"Thank you Camilo," she smiled as she patted my shoulder gently.
"You don't have to thank me," I assured her, and was the first to take a few steps to the door, "I'll walk with you to your home. Let's go?"
She nodded and picked her bag up, "Yeah. Thank you."
**
The two of us walked our way out of the school, and as we waited for the bus going to her house, we shared some of our thoughts on acting.213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp31auTkcNK
To my surprise, she appeared to be as good an actor as I was, maybe even better.213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlLtxK13aY
But, it didn't surprise me more than the fact that her house was so far from mine.213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWSJkFp3Qc
I wanted to ask how the heck did she find a public transportation at 2 in the morning last night, but the question wasn't suitable to be asked with the atmosphere now.
"Hey, Camilo?" She waved her hand in front of my face.
"Huh?" I looked at her.
"I wanted to say thank you for earlier. Say, I thought you said you didn't want to take part?" She said, "What made you change your mind?"
"I don't know myself," I relaxed my stiff shoulders, "But, that isn't important now."
"That's-"
"Now that I answered your question, it's only right for you to answer mine."213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnKb5OVsCQ
I faced her with curious eyes, "Why do you want to join so much in the first place?"
"A photograph."213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cvkTuqCCf
She stood up, "Remember that, and when the time comes, I'll tell you."
"Here's my bus. See you tomorrow, partner."
As she left me by the bus stop, the afternoon breeze became chillier. I put my hood up as the wind was blowing my hair up to my eyes.
I stood up from my seat, and stretched my arms before walking to the path that was nearest to my apartment.
I wonder if Les has gone home already.213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv4pbxD9LA
I thought as I crossed the pedestrian street before stopping in my tracks as I remembered.
"SHI*!" I ran back to school, remembering that I promised that guy we will be going home together.
Meanwhile in school...
"STUPID CAMILO HARRIS! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!"
A voice that was coming from the room of the acting club shouted, disrupting the janitor from cleaning.
"Kid, it's past school hours. Go home," the old man had said, tired from having to put up with students screaming all day.
