CALLIXUS ACADEMY: Captivated By The School Hearthrob 21 Flowers

"The man was skilled, in my theory, he's probably a hunter," said Ravelo.

"Yeah I agree with him," added Klay.

"Big question now, what was a hunter doing in front of Samantha's house?" asked Raviel.

Earlier this evening, Caleb pa.s.sed by Samantha's house, in the hope of catching a glimpse of her. Then suddenly, a suspicious man appeared in front of their house. At first he thought that he was just going to pa.s.s, but the man stood in front of their house for more than a minute already.

In suspicion, Caleb walked a little bit closer to him, but he was greeted by the strong stench of wolfsbane was emanating from the man's cloak, so he had no choice but the step back.

He immediately called Raviel, Ravelo, Klay and Jake. He asked them to bring their masks and help him chase the man, but sadly they weren't able to catch the man.

"Whoever that man was, he probably knows something about Samantha,��� Klay said.

"I think we have to look after Samantha from now on. Her problem might become our problem too. After it's a hunter on the loose, if he knew that we are werewolves, he's probably going to kill us too," said Caleb, "I will talk to Samantha's parents tomorrow," he added.

"Talk to her parents? What for?" Jake asked as he raised his brows on Caleb.

"I need to stay close to her to make sure she's safe," Caleb answered.

"So you plan to move to their house? Is that what you're implying here?" questioned Ravelo.

"Most likely yes,"

Then suddenly Jake laughed at Caleb, "Wow, you guys aren't even together but you plan to move with her already," he said while clapping his hands.

"Take us with you," Ravelo suggested as he jumped excitedly.

"No," Caleb answered.

"Psh, selfish," Ravelo said like a whining kid.

The next day, as Samantha walked to school, she felt like someone was following her. She looked around to search, but there was no one.

"How weird," she said as she continued to walk.

Arriving in school, she was welcome by people who were holding red roses. One by one, they handed the flowers to Samantha as she pa.s.sed by.

"A rose for you milady," said one student.

"Me?" asked Samantha while pointing at herself, but the student didn't respond and just smiled at her.

On her way to their cla.s.sroom, she received about 21 red roses and when she arrived inside, she was greeted by Ezekiel who was holding white roses. He walked towards her and handed her the roses.

It was a total of 7 white roses.

"What's this Ezekiel?" Samantha asked in confusion. She didn't understand anything that was currently happening right now.

"It's just a simple act of love Sammy," he answered, "7 white roses and 21 red, I originally wanted to give you 721 flowers but that will be hard to take home so I just gave you this, 7-2-1," he added.

Samantha just looked at Ezekiel with a very confused expression. What was he saying? 721 what?

"7 letters, 2 words, 1 meaning. Love you," he explained.

Instantly, Samantha's face heated up. She felt her heart race. Why was he suddenly going all out like this?

She wasn't prepared!

"Samantha, I want you to know that I'm really serious about you. I have never felt anything like this before. You don't know how badly I want you to be mine, to have you by my side every day. So can you please hurry up and come to me already?" he spoke in a gentle tone.

The entire student's inside their cla.s.sroom cheered for them.

"Say yes! Say yes!"

"Don't make Ezekiel wait any longer! Get together already!"

"You guys look cute together!"

Samantha was rendered speechless. Ezekiel was putting her in a tight spot again!

What was she supposed to answer again!?

"Looks like you rival made his move already, what do you plan now Caleb? You can't lose like this man," said Jake who was currently lurking around Samantha's cla.s.sroom with the Reverix boys.

"If she's happy with him, I can't do anything about it. As long as she's happy, that's all that matters to me," Caleb answered.

Suddenly, the four boys who was with him clapped in unison.

"Look at Caleb being all grown up." – Raviel

"Yeah, I feel like a mom who's proud of her son." – Klay

"Deep words from the mighty Caleb Sylvester." – Ravelo

"Baby Caleb is now a man, we have to celebrate." – Jake

Caleb glared at them, "Do you want me to claw your throats?" he threatened which made the boys instantly shut up.

"I still need time to think Ezekiel, please don't rush me," Samantha answered Ezekiel. She handed him the roses back apologized.

She was still in a big confusion right now. And being pressured like this didn't help her.

Samantha walked out of the room and went straight at the back of the school. She walked straight to the old tree and sat down.

This place somehow calms her mind that's why she went here. She didn't bother attending cla.s.s anymore. After all the cheers from her cla.s.smates, she can't face them.

She can't face Ezekiel either. She just walked out on him.

"You don't look beautiful when you look like that," a voice sounded from behind her.

Samantha turned around and saw Caleb. He sat beside her and handed her a sunflower, "Here's a sunflower for you, cheer up," he said.

"How did you know I like sunflowers?" Samantha asked in surprise.

"I just figured," he answered.

Samantha stared at the bright yellow-colored flower on her hands and smiled.

"Like that, just smile like that. It suits you more," Caleb suddenly said.

Samantha felt her heart race. She stared at Caleb for a moment, before she retrieved her gaze.

"I'll go now, whatever you're thinking, I wish you'll figure it out," he said then stood up and left.

Samantha was left there alone holding the flower on her hand. Her heart can't help it but skip a beat as she look at the sunflower.

Lately, Caleb seems to have changed. He wasn't the aggressive type anymore. It was like he was a whole new person and Samantha can't help it but notice.

"You're so confusing," she said to the sunflower she was holding.
