Chapter 1

• I rushed and walked to the crowd waiting for the arrival of Rexon Del'torre, the famous band Logistic Band's vocalist.
• "Ouch, can you slow down a bit?!" my friend Terry complained as I hurried along.
• "All you do is complain, just keep up!" I retorted, craning my neck to see if he was approaching.
• "Excuse me! Excuse me!" I called out as I squeezed through the girls crowding the sidewalk.
• The popular band Logistic was about to arrive, causing a stir among everyone. It was rumored that the entire group would be studying at the school for the upcoming school year.
• Finally finding a good spot in the front row, I smiled widely.
• "Tss.. What's the problem, you were the ones who cut in line!" A haughty girl with overly colored makeup retorted.
• "Was there a sign saying, I own this place?!" I retorted just as sharply.
• She scowled at me, her expression making me falter.
• "What's so funny?" She looked annoyed at my mischievous grin.
• "Your face is what's funny!" I raised my eyebrows, getting a stark response from the people around.
• "Bitch!" She yelled at me, causing a brief silence among the bystanders.
• "Same to you, bitch!" I retorted, raising my eyebrows at her.
• I didn't notice the sudden commotion around me because of the aggressive girl.
• "Enough of that, Lara," Terry tugged at my shirt, but I ignored her and clenched my fist on my phone.
• The crowd erupted in loud screams, "He's coming!"
• I quickly turned to face the direction where the Logistic Band group was approaching. My world seemed to stop spinning as Rexon, the band's vocalist, walked onto campus.
• His hair billowed in the wind as he walked, his eyes seemingly speaking without words. His lips, even when closed, seemed to yearn for a sweet kiss.
• My eyes softened as I watched him approach.
• "Rexon!"
• Even the way they called out his name sounded like music to my ears.
• I saw his lips quiver as he warmly greeted everyone. But my fantasy abruptly halted when someone shoved me.
• "Slut bitch!" The girl with heavy makeup screamed at me.
• I wasn't prepared for the push, causing me to fall ungracefully to the ground.
• "Ouch!" I winced as my hips hit the pavement. But I quickly looked around and realized I had almost fallen into Rexon's path. I quickly raised my gaze and realized Rexon was right in front of me.
• "Holy God!" My lips suddenly turned agape as our eyes met with Rexon. My heart almost stopped, and my body froze for a second.
• I watched as his lips quivered again, casting a half-smile as he stood before me.
• But my daydream was cut short when someone nudged me.
• I bit my lip and glimpsed his perfect jawline before he glanced back at me with a furrowed brow.
• "Are you alright?"
• "Ah, yes!" I responded in a trembling voice.
• I reached out for his waiting hand.
• But a surge of electricity ran through my veins when he touched me. It felt like I had won the lottery as I felt the heat and softness of his hand on mine. It was as if I almost fainted at the sensation of his palm against mine.
• As I tried to stand, a sudden jolt shot through my hip.
• "Ow.." I winced in pain. He quickly came to my side and knelt beside me, gripping my hand tightly. He swiftly placed his other hand on my back, seemingly about to lift me, but someone spoke from his back.
• "I got this, Rex," he said as he snatched me from Rexon.
• Before I could react, he was already carrying me, effortlessly navigating the crowd. Irritated as I was, I couldn't complain, for fear of being misunderstood as deliberately wanting Rexon to carry me.
• He kept his eyes on the path ahead, seemingly uninterested in conversing.
• I bit my lip and glimpsed his perfect jawline before he glanced back at me with a furrowed brow.
• "Who is he?" The murmurs spread due to his interference with Rexon's intended action of lifting me.
• "Rexon's big brother," someone said from the group.
• I noticed his jaw tightening as he gazed at me darkly.
• "I take it this, Rex," he stated before swiftly taking me from Rexon's grasp. In a flash, he effortlessly carried me through the crowd towards the clinic. Despite feeling annoyed, I couldn't protest as it would only add to the embarrassment. The scent of his cologne tickled my nose, and I found itmyself inhaling deeply as he walked. He remained silent, focused on the path ahead, with no intention of engaging in conversation.
• As we reached the clinic, I was promptly x-rayed to check for any fractures. Fortunately, no fractures were found. "Thank you for bringing me here," I expressed as he returned from speaking with the doctor. He gazed at me before clenching his jaw and moving to sit on the couch. "Aren't you planning this?" he questioned with a smirk. Confusion clouded my thoughts, "What do you mean?" He chuckled, "Anyone could pull a stunt like that just to catch Rexon Deltorre's attention." I bit my lip before responding, "I'm not that desperate to resort to such tactics."
• Despite my words, doubt lingered in his eyes. “Many people may be falling for him, but if what you consider a cheap move, I'd rather not embarrass myself in front of him," I remarked, raising my eyebrows. Is he really Rexon's older brother? Handsome, yes, but his attitude is far from appealing. Without a word, he stood up and walked out without a goodbye. "Tss, arrogant!" I muttered with a snort as I watched him leave the clinic.
