All Chapters of The Charmer and the Beast: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Our exams were given back to us with our midterm grades. I wasn't excited about it. Before, I would be. But everything's just really different here in college.I just received my midterm grade for my bio subject- a minor subject I have. I'm not a fan of science, that is why I am a creative writing major. Science and math just don't sit well with me, but I can say I always get decent grades from those subjects because even if I wasn't the best in that subject, I make sure to work my ass off to get good grades.I got a 1.5 grade. I guess that's not bad. It's just a midterm grade, I think I can work more to get a flat 1 in that subject.But on the other side of my head, I thought, what the hell. It's not a major subject so I shouldn't think so much about it. But then again, the righteous and grade-conscious in me would insist that I should mind it because it's still part of my grades. If I want a Latin honor, I should watch my grades.I tried my very best not to get it in my head so much

I know their family is very wealthy. I know that very well. But I didn't know his grandfather founded an organization. Hell, I didn’t even know he's an alumna. And not just an ordinary alumna, but someone who’s definitely influential. "He's pretty much one of the reasons why I chose UC. Because he graduated here and he wants me to continue the legacy of the organization he founded," I heard Flint say. After being welcomed to the venue, we were ushered to a table at the front. I was expecting to sit at the back, roam around, because that's what I should do. But instead, I am being ushered into a special table in front, with Flint. We're near the mini stage that they set up and it's making me feel small. The ballroom was so huge that I probably looked like just a dot. "You're rich and influential," I mumbled. I was just supposed to keep it in my head but my mouth's just pretty unstoppable sometimes. I'm not normally talkative but when nerves get in chaos, all the words get loose.

"Why?" I quickly asked. "Why the hell would I bid for you? I don't even have money!" I glared at Flint, while he just grinned. What now? He finds my reaction amusing? The hell, I would never bid on him! God, even if I am a millionaire, I won't spend money on him. What was he thinking? "Hey, you're panicking," he murmured. "Why wouldn't I? You're giving me reasons to panic!" I almost yelled. I saw people look our way but that's the least of my concern now. "Okay, listen..." he mumbled in his calm voice. How could he stay calm right now? What is this? "You're just bidding for me. I will give the money. Just... save me from anyone who tries to bid for me." That kind of calmed me down. But I still gave it a moment to think. So I'm just going to bid for him. I don't have to spend even a coin from my own pocket. So basically, he's paying for himself, just so he could get away from whoever tries to bid on him. But as far as I remember, he was kissing someone else, according t

I was expecting to just attend an event tonight and go home feeling tired from all the social activity. But to hear Flint say he likes me? That's something I never thought would happen tonight. Hell, I didn't even think we'll be back to being kind of close again like how we used to before I break the 'we shouldn't be friends' thing. And right now, I just don't know what to do. I don't know what to say. I don't know how to react. I just don't know how to respond because I'm scared I might say the wrong things. And at this very moment, that's something I don't want to do. I don't want Flint to get the wrong idea. But does that mean I should also tell him what I really feel towards him? Why did I think we shouldn't be friends? He's right in front of me now. Should I just let it out in the open so I wouldn't have to suppress every feeling and every thought I have inside? "I didn't mean to say it as early as now. I was trying to find the right time," I heard him say. "But hiding it just

I think the entire school knows already. I don't even have to tell it to anyone else. Those who have seen Flint kissing me at the cafe already did the talking. And well, it spread just like a disease.It has been days and our relationship is kind of out in the open. I mean, we're not yet official but some think we are, some think we're still dating, which we are, and some think we're just using each other. What the hell is that? How dare they assume things like that? I even heard people talking about how good it must be to be with Flint because he's hot and smart and rich. Huh, it was good! I'd like to tell them the wonders of being with Flint. But I'd rather keep it to myself. I'd rather keep him to myself.We hang out almost everyday. Sometimes, it's with Taylor and Sean, which is hilarious. The two talk to me separately just to tell me how they feel towards each other. I sometimes just laugh because they're with each other all the time but they never tell each other what they real
