*Stone's mansion*
*1:30 pm.

"Dad..."
Diva called as she walked into her dad's study.

"Diva dear..."
Her dad responded.

"Dad... Can I uhm come with you for the conference...?"
See asked and her dad turned to stare at her again.

"I usually beg you to tag along. What suddenly changed? Wait! Don't tell me it's coz of Poison..."
Her dad said, narrowing his eyes.

"So what if it's coz' of him huh?"
She muttered.

"Poison is dangerous., very dangerous. You don't..."
Her dad started but Diva interrupted.

"You're not innocent for all I know."
Diva muttered and her dad turned to stare at her.

"Diva, what do you know?"
Her dad asked but she looked away.

"Are you taking me along or not?"
She muttered, ignoring the question.

"Fine. But I'm not gonna be a party to any of your other plans. Are you even sure he'd look at you?"
Her dad said but Diva jumped up and rushed outta the room and her Dad shook his head and continued what he was doing.

*POISON & BLUEY

"Now and Forever..."
He muttered closing his eyes.

"Huh?"
Bluey asked not sure of what she heard.

"Nevermind."
He said and the car halted at Linda's and she screamed.

"How the hell do you know where I live? Don't tell me you're stalking me..."
Linda screamed...

"Anything for you baby." Knife winked.

"I just can't believe it."
She gushed and alighted from the car.

"Blueberry, come out..!" She yelled.

"Shut it..."
Bluey yelled and came down after disengaging from the hug...

"Babe seriously?"
Linda scoffed.

"What?"
Bluey asked with a sly smile and Poison walked over to them.

"Hey Mister man..."
Linda called and Poison paused to look at her.
"This is clearly getting outta hand. Now you both are all over each other and rubbing it on my single face..."

"We could mingle baby"
Knife interrupted but was shut with a glare.

"Be serious when I'm serious... You won't want to p**s me off..."
She warned and turned to Poison

"Now you both are oppresing me., I'm silent. Now you're wooing her, it's funny. Now you're playing around., I've not said anything. Now you're getting my baby into your mess coz ya dangerous, I'm ignoring it. Now look!"
Linda suddenly looked serious and her tone changed.

"Look here Poison or whatever shid you call ya self."
She started and Knife gasped silently.

"Babe., it hasn't gotten..."
Bluey wanted to say but Linda interrupted.

"Shut the f*ck up. It hasn't gotten to what. And you..."
She turned to Poison.
"It will not be funny if you woo her and she falls for you and you're start your I'm-not-into-love nonsense. I'd show you I can talk if your playing breaks her heart. I'd show you that one of my hobbies is poking into people's businesses, not ignoring them if you drag her into your mess and leave her there."
She spat and everyone looked shocked.

"Lin..."
Knife wanted to say but was interrupted.

"I'm not done talking. You seem unconquerable coz' ya yet to mess with my Blueberry. I will haunt you, cut off your balls and feed them to you. I'm Melinda McBride and I'm good at keeping promises..."
She spat and everyone gasped. The air was so tense and Poison felt some chilly air. He just liked her vibes.
Knife smirked inwardly. Before they could say anything, Linda walked to Poison.

"Hey in-law... Come in and have some tea..."
She said with a smile like she wasn't the one who just threatened another.

"No..."
Poison wanted to object but she shook her head.

"I wasn't asking..."

*10 minutes later*

"Thanks for the tea and Burger Linda. My boss and I appreciate bit we have to go now."
Knife said and Linda nodded.

"I understand."
She said and Bluey walked to Poison and hugged him.

"See you soon."

She said and after some minutes, they walked inside.

"Blueberry..."
Linda suddenly called and Bluey turned.
"Are you sure of what you're doing?"
She asked.

"What do you mean?"
Bluey asked.

"Poison is dangerous yunno. He's into the mafia and all that."

"I know buh..."

"I'm not tryna discourage you. I just wanna ask iffu know what you're in for!"
She said and Bluey pouted.

"I dunno. I've just never felt this way before... And I feel kinda connected to him... I feel like I've known him before..."
She pouted and Linda pulled her into a hug.

After they disengaged, Bluey's phone rang.

"Who's that?"
Linda asked.

"Kelvin..."
Bluey muttered putting it on speaker and Linda started blushing.

📞Hello Kelvin.
She muttered.

📞Hello Bluey, Howie you.
He asked enthusiastically

📞Fine.
She replied

📞What of Linda?
He asked and Linda fanned her checks dramatically

📞Fine.
She answered, rolling eyes at Linda's drama.

📞So where're we meeting for the group study.
He asked slowly.

📞A café, Express café. I'd text the address.
Bluey responded.

📞Okay.
He muttered

📞And we won't be studying for long. Just 30 minutes.
Bluey said, biting her lip.

📞Ok dear. See you soon

📞Bye
Linda chirped in.

"Let me go get dressed..."
Linda gushed and ran upstairs.

*Express café*
5 minutes later.

"Let's sit by the window..."
Bluey suggested and walked there with Linda.
They sat down and started bringing out their books. They noticed the table was occupied by someone who kept books. Before they could check the name, someone interrupted.

"Hello ladies."
They turned to see Kelvin.

"Hey..."
They chorused.

"How did you both know that I'm sitting here?"
He asked with a smirk.

"I never..."
Bluey wanted to say but Linda interrupted.

"Let's say we have the same spirit."
She said with a wink and Bluey scoffed.

"Let me get you something. What'd you like?"
Kelvin asked staring at them.

"Coffee?"
Bluey asked Linda.

"Yes, coffee."
She affirmed.

*20 minutes later*

"The most common cause of Erb's palsy is excessive lateral traction or stretching of the baby's head and neck in opposite directions during delivery usually associated with shoulder dystocia. This may happen during delivery of the head, the head may be deviated away from the axial plane. There can also be compression of the brachial plexus causing it to stretch and tear. Sometimes, pulling on the infant's shoulder during delivery or excessive pressure on the baby's raised arm during a breech delivery can cause brachial plexus injury. Two potential forces act on the brachial plexus during labor- natural expulsive force of the uterus, traction force applied by the obstetrician."
Kelvin explained and Bluey nodded while Linda stared.

"I think we've spent enough time for anatomy. Let's check Maths."
Bluey suggested and Linda heaved a sigh.

"Finally."
She muttered opening her note book.
"We're starting with Calculus continuation. Integration of special functions."
She said with a smirk.

"Isn't that supposed to be for next semester."
Bluey asked and she smirked.

"Say you don't like maths."
Linda scoffed.

"I don't." She admitted.

As Linda started stating the rules, she felt Kelvin's eyes on her.
She smiled and gave what she was doing her best.
"I could still have a chance with him."
She thought to herself.

"I don't get the last one you did. Please do it again..."
Bluey said with a pout which made Linda and Kelvin turn to her.

"Ok..."
Linda replied but felt uncomfortable with the way Kelvin stared at Bluey.

*10 minutes later*
"As agreed, We'd call it a day."
Linda said with a smile and they started packing their books. In no time, they were done and stood up.

"Linda..."
Kelvin suddenly called and the duo turned to him.
"I'd love to see you for a minute."
He said and Linda turned to Bluey who quickly winked. Linda's blushed and followed nonetheless.

"I don't know how to say this Linda..."
Kelvin started and Linda gasped mentally.
"Could this be what I'm thinking? A dream come true? He liked me too?"
She thought to herself.
"Say it anyhow you want. I might understand..."
She finally said with a warm smile.

"I... I... like Bluey..."
Kelvin said and her face turned sour.

"What?"
Linda asked, almost in a yell.

"Yes I do. Is there a problem with that?"
Kelvin asked with a brow raised.

"No... Not at all. I'm just surprised that outta the hottest girls in our department crushing on you, it's my Bluey you like."
Linda quickly said with a fake smile.

"Could you please talk to her for me?"
Kelvin asked.

"I know you're a good guy but promise you'd never break her heart."
Linda replied and he nodded.

"I promise..."
He replied.

"Then I'd do it..."
She affirmed.

"Really? Oh my goodness! I owe you one. I'd..."
Kelvin was about to say but Linda interrupted.

"Shh. Let's go before she thinks nonsense..."
She replied and walked to Bluey.

"What was that about?"
Bluey inquired.

"You..."
Linda replied and Bluey turned to Kelvin.

"You both were talking about me..?"
She asked...

"Uhm... I..."
Kelvin stuttered.

"Such a gossip..."
Bluey said and Linda rolled eyes.

"We better get home soon."
Linda said.

"Yeah, me too.... Bye girls."
Kelvin said and left, not before blowing a kiss at Bluey which she dodged.

"That monkey likes you..."
Linda said.

"What?"
Bluey yelled and stopped walking but Linda pulled her.

"He asked me to talk to you..."
She said again.

"And you did."
Bluey muttered.

"Uh huh. So what?"
Linda asked.

"I thought you liked him."
Bluey replied.

"What's for the cat will always go to the cat. See baby..."
Linda stopped walking and turned to Bluey.
"He's the class genius. If you walk with him, it means fame. His Dad has money which means free shopping. I'm not asking you to date him, not as if your Poison would allow that. I just want you to show him some green light yunno."
Linda reasoned and Bluey nodded.

"So ya dumping ya crush coz'of money."
Bluey teased and they laughed before walking away.

*Stone's Mansion*
*2:00 pm*

"I want to look hot and breathtaking. I wanna be the center of attraction and yunno that means a lotta makeup."
Diva said to the makeup artist showing her a model on the yab she was holding.

"Miss, you're naturally beautiful so your face requires just a little touch and you're good to go... "
The makeup artist suggested and Diva closed her eyes.

"I accept I'm beautiful. Thanks for the compliment. But this is what I want and it is what I'm getting. I hired you coz' you're the best so I want you to get to work right now"
She finalized handing over the tab to her and the Artist shrugged.

"And there's this new IV shoes I wanted to buy."
She said bringing out her tab.
After five minutes, she frowned.

"Who the heck bought those shoes? F**k!"
She screamed and The artist shifted from her.
Diva grabbed the lamp on front of her and threw it to the wall She was about to fix something else when Angelina appeared with a glass of juice. Diva was angrier when she saw Angelina looked pretty. That wasn't supposed to be for an ordinary maid. Angelina dropped the tray on a stool and took a parker and long brush.

"What for?"
Diva barked.

"I want to clean up the glasses."
Angelina replied fearlessly and bent to pick the pieces of the lamp.

"Drop the brush and use your freaking hands."
Diva replied and Angelina paused, looked at her and continued what she was doing.

"Are you insane or something?"
Diva screamed and every other worker around came to take a look. When they saw Angelina, they feared for her life.
"I will not repeat myself!"
Diva added and Angelina kept working never minding her.

🗣️Is she insane?

🗣️Diva would tear her apart...

🗣️Poor Angelina....

🗣️She deserves it...

🗣️I second that...

🗣️Always behaving like she knows all

🗣️Of course, I think so too.

🗣️Why would she challenge Diva?

🗣️I pray she lives to tell the story...

🗣️It's none of my business!

🗣️I'm only here to watch...

🗣️Same here!

The workers murmured as Diva marched heavily to Angelina and grabbed her by the hair, lifted her up and slapped her heavily. Angelina fell from her hold and stood up almost immediately.

"One day, it'd be too late Diva..."
Angelina said and walked out graciously and others gasped.

🗣️Did she just walk out on Diva?

🗣️The guts!

🗣️What'd she said?

🗣️Ask me!

🗣️Everyday and Drama.

🗣️I can't believe this!

🗣️I know she's dead meat already.

🗣️I'm liking Angelina already!

🗣️She's he first to stand up to Diva.

🗣️OMG!

The workers murmured and Diva turned to their direction...

"F*ck off all of you!"
She screamed and they all ran for their dear lives.
She scattered her hair, thinking of what Angelina meant. Diva saw the artist and remembered the conference.
"Let's go to another dressing room!"
She muttered and left, still thinking about what Angelina said.

*Linda's Apartment*
*3:00pm*

Bluey paced around in the room. She finished packing what she'd need in a small box and Linda was seated looking at her.
Bluey exhaled and picked the phone up. Immediately the phone rang and she smiled widely.

📞 Hello...

📞 Berry, Howie you...

📞 I'm good, you?

📞 Same...
Bluey bit her lip before speaking up.

📞 I'm done with what I need...

📞 Was just about to ask you that... Someone's on his way to come pick you up

📞 Okay...

📞 He should be there already

📞 Really?
She gasped when she heard a car horn twice. She ran to the window.

📞 It's a BMW?

📞 Yeah...

📞 Ok then... See you...
She gushed.

📞 You too berry.
Bluey took her bag and ran out and Linda followed suit with her box.
They went outside and entered the car...

"Good afternoon!"
They chorused.

"Afternoon ladies! Are you done?"
The man from the front answered professionally in an automated voice.

"Oh yes. Are you a robot?"
Bluey asked.

"Yes."
He answered and drove off. After some moments they took a turn and stopped in front of a large gate.

OMG!
The building was gush...

*5 minutes later*
"Boss., miss Bluey is here..."
Knife told Poison.

"Send her in."
He muttered and Knife stared again...
He just noticed his mask laying nearby.
"Boss., your mask..."
Knife said and turned when Poison turned to his direction.
Poison waited until Knife's gaze returned to him and he smirked.

"You've seen my face, Noh because I trust you or something..."
Poison said with a scoff and Knife rolled eyes.

"I wanna turn gay coz ya beautiful..."
Knife smiled and Poison frowned.

"Well, I don't love you back. Send in my berry. Only her..."
Poison said and looked away.

"Only her! I like the sound of that... As in upstairs, on this table, in the room, dining... OMG... I'm becoming a grandfather soon..."
He gushed and rushed out.
After some minutes, Bluey walked into the living room. She was wowed by everything she saw coz they spake of money. Her eyes suddenly landed on Poison who was staring at her all the while.

The hazel eyes...
The dark curly hair...
His pointed nose...
His kissable lips...
His dimples...
Bluey got carried away...

"You're blushing for me... I know I'm handsome..."
Poison teased.

"No... no... You look familiar..."
Bluey said and Poison chuckled.

"Let's get to why you're here and forget about where you saw me..."
Poison offered and she nodded, sitting beside him.

"You're beautiful Berry..."
He complimented and Bluey blushed...
He moved closer to Bluey.
"Can I?"
He asked gesturing to her lips and Bluey pulled his face to herself and they kissed until they almost lost breath.

"Poison..."
Bluey wanted to say buh Poison interrupted.

"It's Richard..."
He said with a smile.

"Richie, My Richie..."
Bluey said smiling.

"I love the sound of that..."

"Strawberry..."
Bluey muttered after they kissed again

"I heard that..."
They laughed.
After a while, Poison took her hands and looked into her eyes.
"I have changed a lot from when you knew me..."

"What do you mean?"
Bluey asked, looking confused.

"I... I'm into the Mafia..."
He said and surprisingly, Bluey smiled.

"I've always dreamt of being an Empress..."
She gushed.

"I've a plan..."
Poison said and winked.

"What plan?"
Bluey asked and Poison kissed her again.

"Sorry I can't get enough of your lips. Let's do this first then I'd tell you my plan..."

*The Thomas' Mansion*

"Mayor invited is to the conference yunno..."
Mr Thomas said and Mrs Thomas shrugged.

" I want us to go, at least see what he's up to..."
He said again.

"Hmm..."

"Please..."

"Okay..."

*RB clan*
*Hall*

A girl sat on a table half n**e, pulling a rod in and outta herself intermittently. In another corner, a guy was giving a girl a head. On another table, two girls seemed to have the time of their lives, eating into each other.
Another yet was smoking her life out as a guy nibbled on her b**bs.
Then a girl walked in and they turned to her.

"It's been a while boss visited... I miss him"
She said and someone's scoffed.

"Really Bum? You miss him or you miss the way you tried to seduce him?"
A girl replied coming in.

"No Two, And it's the way boss behaved like he doesn't see her..."
Another girl teased from one end of the hall.

"Mind the way you talk Three. One's the deputy boss..."
The girl called two teased.

"What did you say, Three and Two?"
One gritted.

"You don't have to be mad baby..."
A guy said and One turned to him.

"And that's Pod with his advances..."
Three said and they laughed.

"I don't care what y'all think. Buh I think boss is coming today."
One said.

"What makes you think so?"
Three fired.

"He has a conference. Yunno he doesn't go to conferences without me."
One said flaunting her hair.

"I don't need to remind you of the many times he's left you behind."
Three said and laughed.

"There's something you need to see..."
The girl who was ma********ng with the rod said and stood up. As she walked, her ni***es shook in her flimsy wear. She walked to the projector and turned it on. She pressed some buttons on her phone and the projector became her second screen.

"As y'all know, I'm a student. There's some newsflash from our school you would not wanna miss."
She said not looking away from the phone.

"Red and her legit sources..."
Three said, bubbling a gum. In few minutes, a picture of Bluey and Poison hugging showed on the screen.

"Most blogs have been made about this girl. And from the mask, we know that's our boss... Give up One..."
Red said clicking her tongue.

"She might just be a tool he wants to use..."
One defended.

"Yunno the boss doesn't talk about love..."
Red reminded and smirked.
They were about to say something else when Tooth rushed in.

"Boss is here"
He announced and everyone left what they were doing.

"I knew it..."
One said adjusting her clothes.

"He's not alone... He came with a lady..."
He said again and everyone rushed outside.

"This is the hall where everyone..."
Poison said but paused when he saw everyone rushing towards him. Both him and Bluey were masked.

"Good afternoon boss..."
They chorused and he nodded.

"Any problem?"
He asked and most of them stared at Bluey.

"Oh her... She's my Life, my breath, my better half, my world... Meet My Berry, Blueberry Poison... My Queen and your empress..."

*Episode 13 and 14*
SUNRISE UNI
*LECTURER'S OFFICE*

"Miss Thomas, you weren't active in class..."
The lecturer said...

"I'm sorry prof..."

"Is everything alright?"
He asked again...

"Yes sir... It's just a little issue... I'd be fine..."
She muttered...

"That's all I have to say... You can go..."
He said and Bluey nodded beef leaving.
She walked out of the office and headed to class...
Linda came with her back pack...

"Hey baby... You look lost..."
She whined...

"Dunno..."
She said again...

"That reminds me...
You didn't tell me about the hottie from earlier on... Wait he was the same at the club..."

"He wants me to be his contract girlfriend..."
Bluey muttered...

"OMG! What did you say?"
Linda asked with anxiety

" What do you expect me to say? I've never seen his face and ya talking about dating him... "
Bluey muttered...

"I thought it was gonna be like a contract... "
Linda muttered and Bluey turned to her...

"Dating is dating..."
She replied...

"So is that why you were looking lost?"
Linda asked with a scoff...

"Yunno my answer... Blueberry isn't affected by such... It's just that I feel like I've known him before..."
Bluey said pouting and Linda laughed...

"What makes you think so? Enough of the masked guy Convo... Let's go shopping... I have left over money..." She said bringing out a bundle and a half...
"Incase ya thinking, Lincoln's leftovers from the other day..."
She added...
Bluey was about to reply when she felt arms snake around her waist...
She perceived the familiar cologne and turned...

"You... Stop holding me that way I'm not ya girlfriend..." She rasped...

"Soon to be baby..." He said and pecked her forehead...
Some students were making videos...

"Heard you're going shopping..."
He muttered

"You're eavesdropping!"
Bluey almost yelled

"Not really... You both were loud..."
He said and Linda whistled...

"You were talking about shopping?" Linda asked...

"Yeah..."

"You're taking us outta here on one condition... Bills on you..."
She said with a smirk and Poison chuckled...
He tucked his hands in his pocket and brought out his credit card and stretched it out to Linda.
Linda gasped when she saw it was a black card.
"It's a black card..."
She screamed and students murmured from where they stood...

🗣️ Isn't that Bluey's Boyfriend?

🗣️ I hear Linda talking about a black card

🗣️ That means he's stinkingly rich

🗣️ No wonder he wears a mask

🗣️ His mask sef...

🗣️ Bluey's the real deal...

Linda pushed his hand away with the black card shocking Poison...

"We may not be this rich, buh weren't exactly poor... Thanks for your kind gesture..."
She said with a fake smile...
"I mean you might be a ritual killer and you giving us money would be like investing in a business that'd make a lotta profit... Especially in someone like me that'd produce more than a billion at first trial... Talk more of a queen with blue blood... Nope... We're no longer interested." She rasped.. Poison exhaled before replying...

"I work hard for my money, so hard that it's unbelievable when I say I started from scratch., as in nothing... That I offer you my black card doesn't mean I'd ever want it back. It's at my own risk..."
Poison said looking at Bluey and Linda intermittently.
He just explained himself and didn't feel compelled to do so. He usually looses his head whenever he's with this girl.

"Who the heck are you exactly?"
Bluey asked.

"I'm someone you've heard of. Ever heard of Poi... "
He wanted to reply but Diva suddenly interrupted...

🗣️ What's Diva about to do?

🗣️ Probably trying to woo Bluey's Boyfriend

🗣️ Such a bitch

🗣️ Must she always show she's stupid?

🗣️ No wonder she was called queen of Stupidity

"Wait! There's only one person., One person in the entire NY that drives this car model... If you own this car, that means you're Poison..."
She said with wide eyes and Linda exchanged glances with Bluey. Poison looked at her and recognized her as the b*tchy daughter of the Stones

"Uhm., My name is Diva if you don't mind me..."
She was about to say when Bluey pushed her...

"You sl*t! Of all the men in the world., it's my man you decided to woo..."
She knowingly shouted making some students murmur...

🗣️ What a b*tch

🗣️ She so shameless

🗣️ WTF

🗣️ Buh there's no harm shooting shots...

🗣️ Sh*tty shots indeed

🗣️ I hate her already

"Your man? You're just saying it to spite me!" Diva defended.

"Spite you? Why the hell would she spite you? You're not done with one dare and you're going for another. He confirms Bluey is his and you strip RN..."
Linda said with a smirk.

"Deal..."
Diva said and turned to Poison who didn't say anything.
Everywhere was quite as everyone was anxious to know how Poison would react.
He moved close to Bluey, wrapped his arms around her waist, leaned in and pecked her forehead.

"She's mine., Mine alone..."
He said to Diva.

🗣️ They're so cute

🗣️ The possessive arms for me...

🗣️My boify should see this!

🗣️ Oh I'm jealous

"Strip..."
Linda commanded and students started making videos.

Knife admired Linda's outspokenness from where he was.

Diva started removing her clothes shamelessly and made to walk to Poison but he shoved her out of the way and moved with Bluey to the car.
"You're shopping with me..."
He whispered and Bluey suddenly wondered what she's gotten herself into.

SHOPPING MALL
30 minutes later.

"I can't find any pendant that's cheap and affordable."
Bluey whined, looking lost.

"As of it's ya money..."
Linda replied with rolled eyes.

She were about to say something else when Poison interrupted...

"Berry., you need to see this." Poison said, pulling her away.

"Berry... Wow, I'm attending a wedding soon..."
She chuckled.
She wanted to choose between two necklaces when Knife brought another.

"Wow! This is beautiful!" She gushed.

"I'm glad you like it... Makes you look hotter..."
Knife complimented.

"Oh really? I hope Kelvin would look at me when I wear it."
She said hopefully which made Knife furrow his brows.

"Kelvin? Who's that?"
He asked.

"Our class genius., my crush..."
She gushed covering her face and Knife smiled at her cuteness.

"Come let me show you a dress I think would look good."
Knife said and pulled Linda with him.

*POISON & BLUEY*

"Let me wear it for you..."
Poison offered and put the beautiful necklace on her neck and the pendant dangled beautifully on her b**bs.
"You look beautiful..." He added and brought out his phone, opened Snapchat selfie and gave it to her.
"Take a look..."
He said and Bluey felt sparks when his fingers brushed over hers.
She looked at the phone and got a shot and saved it.
She looked around for the price tag but didn't see it.

"Where's the price tag?"
She queried...

"I got it already since the first day I saw you..."
He wanted to say but he was interrupted.

"Wait! What?"

"Yes! I didn't know if you'd like it..."

" I don't.."
Bluey rasped and he turned to her.
"I love it..." She gushed and he smiled through the mask.

"So you agreed to be my girlfriend...?" He asked.

"Never said so..." She said turning her back on him. He flipped her immediately to himself and she gasped.

"So you don't like me"
He asked, locking eyes with her.

"Nope., not exactly..."
She muttered...

"So what?"

"I dunno..."

" You dunno? Or I'm the one who doesn't know?"
He said and Bluey looked away
"Tell me... What voodoo have you done on me?"
He asked and Bluey looked at him.
"But don't worry... I like the magic. If it's a dream I don't wanna wake up..."
He muttered and Bluey sniffed.

"Really?"
She asked and he nodded.
She pulled him into a hug which shocked him.
After a while they disengaged and Bluey stared into his eyes through his mask.

"You having a conference this weekend?"
She asked.

"Guess so... Is that all you have to ask ya boify?"
He replied and she looked away...
"Don't you wanna see the face behind the mask?"

"Which guy in his right senses would reveal something as sensitive as that to a one night stand he met again?"
She replied with a shrug.

"You're more than a one night stand to me. And you're coming to the press conference as my girlfriend. Come let's choose a dress for you.."
Bluey blushed as she was being led away.

*Thomas' Mansion*
*2 hours later*

"Bluey you didn't come home last night and yesternight..."
Her mom whined...

"it was late when I was done so I stopped at Linda's."
She replied.

"Uncle Mayor called..."
Her father said after a long period of silence. He turned to look at Bluey who's face was expressionless and exchanged glances with her Mom

"Baby... I thought Uncle Mayor is your favorite..."
She wanted to say but Bluey beat her to it.

"Sorry for interrupting but you need to stop 'thoughting'."
Bluey muttered using her fingers to signify the air quotes.

"A lil time ago you seemed to be obsessed..."
Her mom wanted to say but stopped when Bluey raised her hand and motioned for her to stop.

"There are some things we grow past, asides childish habits. As a matter of fact, Liking uncle Mayor or obsession like you think is one of them."
Bluey muttered and stood up.
"I'd be in my room coz it seems you have nothing else to say."
She said, pursing her lips.
"And I'm not gonna be home tomorrow night... If it happens, I'm coming late. I'm telling Incase you don't wake to meet me tomorrow morning."
She added and moved upstairs.

*NEXT DAY
SU, LH.

"Don't forget about the next project... Suffering Loss. It's 5 marks..."
The professor yelled after the students as they trooped outta the hall.

"Can't wait for the group study this evening..."
Linda gushed.

"You're not even thinking about the fact that our shift starts Sunday evening..."

"Oh please! I don't have to think about stress all the time... Wait! Your boyfriend's press conference is today, Like this evening..."
She screamed and students turned to them.
Bluey waved a sorry and turned to Linda...

"Are you crazy or something?"
She gritted.

"I would never hide the fact that I'm dating from anyone... And New York’s boify for that matter."
Linda said blushing.

"You're mad really..."
Bluey said and they walked out of the big gate.
She was surprised when she saw Poison.

"I thought billionaires are supposed to be busy..."
She muttered when they finally got to each other.

"That's right but about you, it's different."
He muttered and pulled her into a warm hug.

"How are you preparing for your conference?"
she asked and he held her waist again.

"It's supposed to be US..."
He corrected. Bluey was about to say something else when Kelvin walked to them.

"Hey Blue. Hey Linda. Hey Mister."
He greeted and everyone responded except Poison who only nodded.

"Came to remind you about the group stuff..."

"Yeah... See you in thirty minutes..."
Linda replied quickly and they turned to her.

"Sorry..."
She apologized and Knife smiled at her cuteness.

"Okay..."
Kelvin muttered awkwardly.
"See you then. Bye."
He muttered and left.

"You're going out with him?"
Poison gritted.

"Oh yes. It's a group study for God's sake..."
Bluey responded nonchalantly.

"He's gonna talk to you..."

"It's supposed to be interactive..."
Bluey interrupted.

"I don't like the sound of that..."
He muttered.

"IDC either."
Bluey scoffed.

" You don't care..."
He asked sadly and Knife pulled Linda away to give them privacy.

"Stop playing victim here. I hate it... You don't care too..."

"What if I do?"
He said gently and Bluey turned to him...
"Yes Berry. I do care about you... coz I don't think a moment skips when I don't think of you. That guy., he likes you... I don't want you falling for him... I don't want you falling for anyone else... I felt somehow when I watched him talk to you."

"Really?"
Bluey said, more of a whisper.

" Yes Berry."

" I still have to go., I'm going with Linda. Nothing would happen trust me..."

"I do. I'd send my driver to pick you up by 5."

" 5?"

"Yeah, I wanna show you something before we leave for the conference... Come lemme give you a ride..."
He offered and led Bluey away.
He got the door and they got in to meet Linda and Knife already seated.

"I'm going to Linda's..."
She muttered and was surprised when Knife didn't ask of the address...

She turned to Poison and found him staring...

" What?"
He pulled her in to a hug...

"Why..."
She wanted to ask but was interrupted.

" Just stay here, for now..."
He muttered into her ears...

"Yeah, Now and forever..."
