CILIA'S POV 

I watched as the idols took their place at the table set which was just as the extreme end of the cafeteria few inches from mine. Just seeing then from this close distance is like a dream come true. They were extremely gorgeous physically than what the cameras and social media point them to be. Especially Daniel, he's actually the leader and most good looking of the three. But my real actual crush is Jung Walter Walker JAY. I'm a huge fan of his. I follow up on all his music and videos.

I quickly brought out my phone and texted Elle. Immediately I hit the send button, I looked up to see Queen Bee and her friends standing  before me and staring with contempt at me. I smirked lazily.

"What is it bitch?"

"Nothing much silly, you have to evacuate this table Immediately as my friends and I are taking it." She smirked evilly. I grimaced.

"Oh really," I said sarcastically

"Your father being the owner of this campus doesn't give you right to command me. Because the last time I checked, you are a student of this campus just as I am and I have every right to sit where I want not you commanding me. I also pay tuition fee you know," I said while playing with my nails. I looked at her, she seems ready to explode. Damn! this bitch don't know what's up. She is turning red already. Ha! I smirked. She leaned down to stare at me on the same eye level.

"Look here you little nitwit and listen carefully. I am the Queen of this campus and my decisions amongst students are final. Now you will obey me and quietly leave this place before I force you to!" She said evilly. I stared unflinchingly at her.

"Oh my! Now I'm scared," I drawled sarcastically while hugging myself in mockery. I laughed out loud. Her friends look like they will faint any moment more.

"Now you excuse me 'Queen Lucia'..." I said with mock air quote. "I was sitting here before you came in yet you didn't bother me then. You even sat few tables away until the idols came in and sat down there..." I pointed towards their table. All attention was fixed on us now but I don't mind.

"If you so much as want to seat with your crush or your idol, why don't you take your thin self and your company of lazy friends outta here then go grab a seat somewhere else and sit with them. Don't bother me, you don't wanna get involved with Elle..." She flinched when I said that. She's kinda scared of Elle.

"Besides," I continued "This table is already taken by my friends and I. Now get out before I do something to you I'm sure you'll regret." I spat out angrily. She really did got on my nerves. There was gasps everywhere. No one had challenged her in such manner before except, of course me and my friends. Don't be surprised sweetie. We stay calm in school doesn't mean we don't have our own history. Don't worry, you'll understand soon. Lucia looks petrified and angry at the same time. Funny isn't it?

"You may think you have won bitch but trust me, I always have a way of paying back. Get ready to experience yours." She said venomously. I simply stared at her with the 'oh really' kind of look while her friends gave me the "I've got my eyes on you sign".

"Get lost bitches!" I scoffed

"What's going on here?" I smirked satisfactorily when I heard her voice. Time to watch a little drama. I sipped satisfactorily from my glass.

          DANIELLE'S POV

I drummed lazily on the stair rail as I listened to the loud hip-hop music booming from my earpiece which I had connected to my phone. I was just outside Tania's HOD(Head of department) office waiting for her to come out so we could go meet Cilia. The office was located at the second floor of the faculty building. From my position, I could see the general cafeteria which was several meters away. I wonder what's going on there now, Cilia must be tired of waiting for over fifteen minutes. Just then my phone buzzed interrupting the music. I've been thinking of new dance steps to take on this beat. I checked and discovered a message from Cilia.

*You guys should come to the cafeteria Immediately* It said. Almost immediately the office door opened and Tania stepped out.

"Sorry for keeping..." She started to say when I shushed her. "Lia said to come Immediately, let's go." I said. She nodded. We hurried downstairs and out of the building. Thankfully, I had brought my car along. We both hopped in and I drove us to the cafeteria.

_____

My eyes located Lia immediately we entered the building. We walked over to her. There seems to be a sort of commotion as that bitch was present.

"What's going on here?" I asked calmly. I looked at Lia and didn't fail to catch the Satisfactory smirk that graced her cheeks Immediately she heard my voice. She sipped nonchalantly from her glass. I dropped my bag on the table while Tania helped herself to a seat.

I looked around briefly, noticing the idols sitting at the next table after ours before my eyes finally settled on Lucia. Immediately her eyes met mine, she flinched, looking away sharply. Right, she ought to be scared. One of her friends tugged at her dress silently, signaling for them to leave. She turned around to leave.

"Not yet Lucia. We aren't done here and besides, you haven't answered my question." She turned to glare at me but ended up looking away.

"What were you saying to my friend, dear?" I said sweetly with a deadly smirk on.

"Nothing you should know of." She finally said and turned away afterwards.

"Luciana darling, you should learn to mind your business and stay out of my lane. I don't like repeating my self." I warned.

Katie scoffed. One glare at her and she ended up shivering like a cold mouse.

"I would appreciate if this doesn't repeat itself." I added. Lucia opened her mouth to talk but closed it immediately she looked at me. She turned and stomped off with her friends. My friends burst into a bubble of laughter. I chuckled and sat down. The students returned to their previous activities.

"What happened here?" Tania asked with a giggle.

"Let's talk about this later girls. Right now I'm famished. Let's grab something to eat then talk about this on our way back to the dorm. What do you think?" I said.

"Agreed." They both chirped. I smiled as we stood up and walked to the counter.

____

Moments later, we were on the way out of the cafeteria when someone tapped me from behind. I turned around calmly.

"Ah, It's you." I said

"Yeah, it's me Elle." Jade said. "Can we talk?" He asked. I turned to look at my friends. They smiled knowingly at me.

"Don't worry Elle you can go, we'll wait for you in the car." Tania said.

Lia smiled and winked at me. I smiled and tossed my car key to them. I turned to Jade.

"Alright Jade but please you've gotta be brief" I said. He nodded.

We walked a brief distance away.

Roe and I on the left side of the court and Jay and another guy 'Rino' on the other. I stopped playing as my head was spinning uncontrollably and all I could hear was;'And are you perfect Mister?''Are you perfect Mister?''Perfect..?'I couldn't get the girl off my mind since my previous encounter with her yesterday. Even when I went to Roe's I wasn't me, all I could think of was who she was and why my heart thumped incredulously when I saw her face. Or why her eyes and glare seems so familiar? Who is she? And why was her presence having such influence on me? I mean, I never cared about girls since Goldie left me and I believed all girls are heartbreakers and evil, except of course my Mom and sisters, Jay's Mom and sister. They were the only females I've cared about so far after my break-up. So how is it that she seems to be breaking t

What sort of dancer? Wait! She's the celebrity dancer Jay's been crushing on? The Dazzling Stars dancers?" I asked skeptically as I stared at them."Yes, she's a celebrity dancer and the leader of the Dazzling Stars Dancers and No she isn't the dancer Jay's interested in." Roe explained while Jay raised a brow."Interested in? Seriously guys?" He asked unbelievably. "Who said I'm having a crush on her? I...I jus...just admire her."

Presently, she's doing the 'candle pose' Yoga excercise'. If she doesn't do her exercise a day she'll probably go insane. Speaking of insane, who wakes up and does life videos every weekend after morning prayers? I'm crazy right? I know...I laughed at Tania's frowning face before plodding off to the kitchen to meet Elle."Yummy...something smells delicious." I said sniffing in air in other to grasp the tantalizing aroma I was percieving. I walked into the kitchen only to find Elle humming along to whatever song it was that's booming from her headphone as she cooked. She's even dancing weirdly too. I was still videoing all along. "Hey people that's Diva over there and she's preparing...What did she call it again?" I bit my lip thoughtfully. "Ah yes, she's preparing Nigerian Jollof rice for lunch. This will ac

Johnny also said to come and see what she's up to."Oh you are here." She smiled while I just stared at her."Why's this place quiet and devoid of customers?" I asked, as I scanned around. "I bought it for a few minutes so I can have a quiet conversation with you. Don't worry, I also took care of the CCTV." She said and I couldn't help but scoff. Whatever she wants to say must be pretty illegal..."How long has it been? Nine years? It's really good to see you again Lucia. You look much more matured and way prettier than I last remembered." She said smilingly and I rolled my eyes away. She didn't change, still really slender with her mother's brunette hair although I noticed she dyed some part of it to blonde.

"We didn't practice for some time now due to Lia's birthday and Jay's concert. So I guess we should." I said shruggingly. They all nodded approvingly and continued eating.
