Chapter 7

Just day one and she had been called a bitch,more times than she could count. 

“Here we go again.” 

She rolled her eyes turning to see who was the name caller this time. 

She looked up at an angry handsome male. 

“Hello.”

He looked at her gobsmacked, confused at the calm greeting. 

“You pushed Octavia and you broke her arm.” He huffed abgeuly looking at her with such rage. If eyes could kill. She’d already be dead by now. 

“Okay and?” Alice paused, taking a sip of her cappuccino. 

He looked ready to explode at her behavior. “You're going to apologize to her or You're going to face very dire consequences.”

“Sorry, who are you?”

“I am Fredrick Cuniñ. A computer science major and Octavia is my girl.” The boy huffed. 

Oh, That's why he looked familiar. Fredrick as one of her fan boys but he wasn't just a fan boy, He and Octavia kind of dated for a while in secret because she was a ‘private person’ and then she left him when his family buisness bankrupted. She was obviously with him for just his money. 

“Oh, you.”

“Apologize to her right now. I am going to tell the Disciplinary Committee right this moment.” He said looking at her with a frown. 

“Go on. I dare you. Tell the vice chancellor if you want to. The slightest thing won't come out from my mouth.” She said looking at him, like he was dust beneath her feet. 

“This isn't the last time you will see me.” He looked at her with a frown, walking away fastly. 

“You know he's going to tell the committee. You could be suspended.” Nora said scared. 

“Don't worry, I got it all under control.”

Alice liked at her watch quickly. It was almost three o'clock. The Civil Affairs Bureau would close soon and Travis was waiting for her outside. 

“Welp, I have to go. I'll see you tomorrow.”

She walked outside as fast as she could. Looking around and seeing the Black sleek Phantom in parking lot. He was drawing attention even without trying to. She rolled her eyes as she moved to the door. 

“Hi, sugar plum.” Alice said beami g at Travis. 

The driver’s eyebrows shot up to his hairline. Did she just call his hard, coldhearted boss sugarplum? 

Travis cheeks reddened at the strange nickname but he wasn't going to show her that he so much adored it. 

“How was school?”

She climbed into his lap, beginning to describe her day in vivid detail. 

The driver's eyebrows shot even higher.  

He stiffened visibly moving slightly so she wouldn't be able to feel his hardening length but Alice was determined to make him mad. She moved around his lap trying to find a comfortable position. 

“Stop fucking moving.” He said in a tightened voice.

“It's not intentional,” she said still trying to move. “I'm just trying to find-” Her hand had touched something. She turned away, putting her hands on her laps. Looking everywhere but him. 

“Sorry.” She whispered shyly. 

“It's fine.” 

An awkward silence followed. 

“You were saying something about school?” 

“Yes. If they told you I did something bad. Would you believe the person over me?”

“I would believe you whether you did or didn't do it.” He said instantly. 

“What if it was something bad?”

“Same thing.” He said without missing a beat. 

“ Seriously?”

“Yes. Did something happen? Did you kill someone?”

“What? No.” She said with a laugh. 

“If you did. I'd help you to hide the body and clean the scene. They'd never find anything.”

Alice looked at him incredulously, laughing even more. 

Sh looked at his serious face,noticing he wasn't smiling. Oh,he was serious, very serious. 

“There's no dead body. It's just my stepsister being a diva. She pulled my hair and I shoved her and she ‘broke her arm.’”

“Did anyone see her pulling your hair?”

“No. But she didn't do it in a blind spot. There was a camera.”

“Smart girl.” She beamed at the compliment looking down at her watch. 

“They're about to close. We have to hurry.”

“Who?”

“The Civil Affairs Bureau duh.”

“Oh.” He signaled the driver and soon they were in the building.

A few minutes later, they had signed all the documents and it was time for the photo. 

“Please Sir. Can you just smile?” The photographer said gesturing to Travis. 

Hus ey brows furrowed as he looked at the photographer. 

Anita rolled her eyes, settling down on his lap and pulling at his cheeks. 

“Smile. You don't want to be ugly in putting first photo do you?” She looks at the camera giving her best smile. It was like the whole room lot as she gave a smile. 

Travis was awed. He put his arm on her waist and pushed his face closer to hers, giving a small smile. 

Anita turned to him , smiling brightly, he turned to her, a slight smile and love shining in his eyes. 

They both heard the camera click. 

“Perfect!” 

“You've taken the picture already?”

“Yes. You two are perfect and have so much chemistry. I can practically pluck it. If we were to use this as a banner,everyone would come to get married.” He said with a laugh. 

Travis was obviously impressed with the photographer's compliments. He made a mental note to ke sure he was promoted. 

They left the Civil Affairs Bureau, the wind hitting their face. 

Alice didn't feel any different. She was married. She was finally married to the best man in the universe. Her he

art swelled at that. 

“We're married now. We'll be together forever.” She said happily. 

“Yes we will.”

“Now, the honeymoon.”
