I Love You, Miss Genius

The morning shone its first ray into the car. Bonnie opened her eyes slowly.

The next thing she knew, she heard Ivor's charming voice. "You're awake."

Turning her head, she looked at him. He was resting his chin on his hands, looking as leisurely as one could be. She couldn't help but blush at that. "Ahem... You were so tired last night. Why don't you sleep longer and charge your battery?"

He rolled to the side and raised his brow seductively. "I'm okay. I wasn't too tired or anything yesterday. Actually, I think it's more tiring for you."

Her face turned a deeper red.

"Are you insinuating that I was too proactive yesterday?"

"Nuh-uh." He pinched her cheeks lovingly. "I know you play by your own rules, but that's what I like about you. I'm just expressing concern."

"Nicely said." Her lips curled into a grin. Then, she lied back down.

"Well, hurry up and drive back home now. I need to take a shower. Otherwise, I won't feel comfortable."

Smiling, he responded, "Okay."

She needed to deal with some matters at the university. So, she went back to her villa in Lenfield Resort, took a bath, and asked him to send her to Pyralis University.

The moment she stepped out of the car, she saw Andreas. It just so happened that he had just arrived at the university, too.

At first, she was stunned. She was about to say something when she felt someone tugging on her arm.

"Bonnie."

She knew what Ivor meant and turned around to look at him, giving him a comforting look.

"I've wanted to put things right with him from the beginning. Now that I ran into him, I can use the opportunity to tell him about my real thoughts."

Then, she paused a little before adding, "Don't worry. We're just friends. Nothing's going to happen between us."

He was still gripping her hand, unwilling to let go. "I'm still worried. Can I come with you?"

"Yeah, but it wouldn't be appropriate

for you to be there for the kind of topic we're going to be talking about. I think it just make everyone uncomfortable. Do you think we'll be able to talk openly if that's the case?"

Ivor thought about it and found her analysis to be sound. He slowly let go of her arm.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"Go ahead and talk to him, then. I'll be waiting for you here."

"Okay."

he mig responded. Worried that

he might get jealous, she said again,

"I have to set things right with him.

для

That's all it is. Don't start having crazy ideas, alright?"

She looked so serious that he couldn't help but chuckle.

"Okay. I believe you."

Feeling better than ever, she tore her gaze away from him and walked toward Andreas.

The prince merely stood where he was. He glanced at her, his eyes filled with some level of excitement.

"D-Did you come to look for me, Bonnie?"

Nodding, she said, "Yeah. There's something we have to talk about, Andreas."

At first, he was happy that she came over and greeted him. After he heard what she said, however, he could guess what she was about to say.

The light in his eyes dimmed immediately. Even his voice emanated a desolate tone.

"W-What do you want to talk to me about? The thing is, I'm in a kind of foul mood right now. So, if you're going to tell me something that'll make me feel worse, why don't you hold it off until after I feel slightly better?"
