Valentine's is about to come and remind the singles that they're lonely, The day you hated the most, The day never fails to make you feel jealous and feel lonely, Just a few more day's and almost every single person without a lover is ready to bawl their eyes out especially those poor hopeless romantic's, and you're one of them.
A Week Before Valentine's
Mr. Zhongli the principal of the school announced that they'll have a Valentine's event.
All students must have a partner (platonically or romantically), He also mentioned that the event holds 60% of their grades. Everyone who heard about the event gossiped and wasted no time to pick a partner.
The school couples find this easy for them. Ugh, how lucky, The one's who dont are having a hard time especially when almost everyone in the school already has one makes it harder.
You asked Venti to be your platonic partner for the event, He shookt his head and said he already has one. You understood it and went to find a partner for that 60% grade.
After hours of running around this big ass school trying to find a partner, you gave up and sat down beside your classrooms door frame.
You tried to catch your breath as you wipe your sweat with your handkerchief.
Albedo found you and kneeled down to reach your eyes
"Are you alright? Do you need water? You can use my waterbottle" Albedo said, there's no emotion on his voice hut his expression on his face right now does.
You shooked your head at him.
"You dont have a partner for the event yet?" Albedo asked.
"As always, how about you? Pretty sure you have one already-"
"I don't." He quickly answered back.
"What." Your eyes widened.
"Mhm." He lowered his head staring at the nice floor.
You took a deep breath.
"Excuse me, you're literally smart and have the ability to pull anyone you want and no one asked you to be your partner!? you're literally THE STANDARD" You said and stared at him.
"That pain in the ass girl asked me to, but I rejected her like always also Im afraid they're too shy and think I'm too good for them. Or they already have a partner" He laughed while lifting his head up, Your eyes met his dreamy ones, You felt your face heat up. you coughed and spoke up
"Really? Thats ridiculous-"
Albedo cutted you off "Will you be my partner for this event?" he asked seriously while staring at your eyes, looking for answers.
"What." You blinked twice at him. Girl was flabbergasted, You did not even move a muscle or breathe. Albedo waited patiently for your answer.
"Is this an early April fools prank?" You laughed nervously while fidgeting with your fingers.
"No Miss ( Y/n )." He answered so quickly, You felt your whole body heat up. A sweat slowly forming on the side of your forehead.
"...." You kept quiet until he spoke up once again. It was awkward waiting for him to speak again.
"So, will you be my partner-"
"Albedo, are you for real dead dead DEAD serious or joking"
"I'm serious- you know what, I'll ask another person"
"Fine, I'm not agreeing to this because of those stuff I dont know, I'm agreeing and doing this for that sweet 60%" You dreamed about getting that 60% grades, your saliva drooling from the corner of your mouth. Albedo noticed it and wiped it off with his handkerchief.
He laughed "I knew it, It would work on you. I'm also asking you for that 60%" he smiled and stood up. he took out his hand lending it to you.
"Come, Stand up" he smiled, The blush that appeared on your face reached the tip of your ears.
You placed your hand on his, He helped you stand up again by pulling your wrist. The both of you entered the class and settled down.
A person peaked behind the pillar, they hid there the whole time, they even overheard the conversation between you and Albedo. "What a speedy genius boy, aye?" He folded his arms and clenched his jaw.
I actually don't know where the fuck this story is going 💀 publishing chapters one by one instead of publishing a long one, I am very sorry. School is about to start in a few weeks again.
