Chapter 43: 42. Mary's Classmate
After everything that happened the last week peace came from the Reyes Empire as Mary start going back to school.
"Mary did you practiced your lines?" Kylie asked as Mary nodded. She was absent for a week due to that incient yet her classmate only knew that she was sick.
"Do you think you can handle this piece?" Marga asked thinking that Mary is not suitable for this role. She thinks that she was way better than her.
"She will be," Aaron said as everyone looked shocked seeing him. It's been awhile since Aaron went back to school. Wendy and Jayden already graduated while Mary still have a year left before she graduates.
"I know that Marry and you are going out but the Phantom is Fermin and he will be taking the leading man." Marga explained as Aaron smirked. "I know, I don't mind at all." Aaron said as he tappped Mary's shoulder and went back to his desk.
'What is he doing attending school right now?' Mary thought to herself as Aaron starts sleeping in class.
Mary knew that Aaron already graduated in law school yet he didn't have to push himself that much just to watch over her at school.
During lunch Aaron joined Mary together with her friends and their boyfriends when a goons started sitting beside Mary's friends and their boyfriends are too afraid to save their girlfriends.
Aaron didn't care and continue eating when a goon sat next to Mary making Mary in between Aaron and the Goons. Aaron grabbed Mary and let her sit in his lap and continue eating.
"What the hell are you doing?" Maray whispered as Aaron munch on the meat. "I can't let a germ touch your delicate skin." Aaron said as the Goons got pissed and was about to grab Mary when Aaron immediately point the knife that he use to cut the stake in the Goons forhead.
Aaron glared at them as they start running away from Mary's table.
"Kyaaahhh your boyfriend is so cool Mary!" Kylie said as she blamed his boyfriend fo rnot acting cool like Aaron.
"Can I sit back to my chair now?" Mary asked as Aaron let her go. 'Heh, acting all shy when we already sleep in one bed.' Aaron thought to himself as he looked at Kylie as she winks at him.
Mary didn't noticed it since she was flustered by what just happened.
Aaron knew there is something going on aout the play, Mary's friends asking for dinner and Kylie winking at him like she was flirting.
Mary practiced the whole afternoon as Aaron waited for him to finished. He saw Kylie talking to Marga as they laugh and went somewhere so he cannot help himself but be curious about it.
"Mary I'll buy some water." Aaron said as Mary nodded and smiled at him. His heart skips a bit seeing Mary smile genuinely as she was doing her very best in their roleplay.
Aaron followed Kylie and Marga as he hide up in the tree and saw Fermin walking towards their direction.
"You know the plan right? We will break those two up so I can have Aaron by myself. You will kiss Mary in the actual show so that Aaron will be caught off guard and be mad at Mary for being sluty and liking the scene." Kylie said as Aaron looked at those three boringly.
'Feels like I'm watching a typical highschool revenge when they are already in college.' Aaron thought as Marga handed something to Fermin.
'Hmmm, I see so this is how they play they're game on my poor baby.' Aaron said as he jump off the tree and left the sight.
He bought some water and handed some to Mary.
"We'll wrap things up soon, Just wait a little bit okay?" Mary said since she thought that Aaron was bored and want to work now with Zade since it's abt to get dark. Aaron smiled seeing how Mary acts considerate about him.
"It's fine, Take your time." Aaron said as he sat at the corner an d looked through his schedule.
The schedule of the play is the same schedule that he need to formally start their defensive training since Zade announces that they wanna lay low this time.
Aaron meesaged Zade.
Aaron:
Boss, Can I ask for a favor?
Zade:
Be quick, The twins are crying.
Aaron smirked thinking how fatherhood changed Zade in a lot of ways. Zade and Wendy are up for a sleepless nights since Wendy doesn't trust any nannies to take care of the Twins and she wanted the both of them to treasure the moments of being parents and take care of their offspring.
Aaron:
Can I cancel my schedule by Monday? There is a play happening in the school festival and I want to watch how Mary would act her character.
Zade Typing...
Aaron gulp knowing that Zade wanted a full protection in the mansion and i fwe delay such things Zade would definetly disagree about it.
Zade:
Hi Aaron! This is Wendy, I will agree with such favor and I would love to have a video on Mary's acting skill!
Zade:
Ahhh My Wife just used my account just now! Sorry about that, Anyways you can since Wendy already made a decision about it. I'll take care of it for now if the Twins sleeps hopefully.
Aaron:
Thank you so much Boss and Little Missy!
Zade:
You're Welcome
Aaron smiled thinking that now all he have to do is to talk to Mary about it.
At the Reyes Mansion Wendy and Zade were tired from the constant tantrums and cries that the twins made the whole day.
"Babe," Wendy called as she handed a cup of coffee to Zade. "Thanks babe," Zade said as Wendy smiled.
"I'm sorry, I really just don't trust any nannies for our child." Wendy said as Zade smiled. "It's okay. It was tiring yet fulfilling taking care of my own offspring." Zade said as he looked at Zackary and Zackeeyah.
Zade looked at the window and saw Mary and Aaron arrived.
"I'll be out for the night, Can you handle this two?" Zade asked as Wendy nodded. "I'll be just fine babe, Do well on your work." Wendy said as she lean and kissed Zade on the lips.
"Ahhh I want more kisses from my wifey." Zade looked like a little puppy right now as Wendy smiled.
"Go on already, Aaron will be waiting for you." Wendy said as Zade smiled.
In Mary's room Aaron looked at her as she was fresh out of the bath.
"You keep on staring at me, is there something wrong?" She asked as Aaron nodded.
"You can quit being the main lead on that show." Aaron said as Mary was pissed out hearing such things from Aaron.
"What did you just say?" Mary asked. "It's not worth it." Aaron added.
Mary snapped.
"What do you mean not worth it?! I worked my butt out to give everyone a good show and now your telling me to quit?!" Mary was so mad with Aaron right now as he was about to get near her when she grabbed a pillow and throw it on Aaron's face.
"Leave this instance!" She shouted as Aaron sigh and left her room. Mary locked the doors as Aaron sat down on the floor outside her room.
"Why are sitting there like a homeless hobo?" Zade asked seeing Aaron in such scene. "Mary got mad, I was just protecting her." Aaron said as Zade chuckle.
"The both of you are the same. Your protecting each other without knowing that would hurt your partner." Zade said as Aaron looked confused.
"Remember when she tried to stop you from saving Wendy in the Real Mansion? She was trying to protect you that time but she knew deep down that it was the right thing for you to do and trusted you in the end even if her hands are trembling." Zade said as Aaron smiled sadly.
When Mary hugged her in the hospital her hands didn't stop trembling. It's like she was worried the whole time.
"That's why you asked for a day off right? Something bad will happen to her sooner or later and you are deeply aware from that." Zade said as Aaron smiled.
"Yeah, I cannot just kill those kids." Aaron said as he looked at his hands.
"Just trust her like how she trusted you and when it is time for you to step in then do so." Zade said as Aaron nodded.
"Let's get back to work now, Lately we've been distracted by our lovers and we barely have enough time to work." Zade said as they went to the library and saw Jayden looking stressed out.
He's been handling Aaron's work for days since he was busy with Mary while Zade is also busy with the twins.
"You really looked like a mess Jayden." Aaron said as he starts laughing.
"SHUT UP YOU SH*TS AND GET YOUR BUTTS TO WORK!" Jayden shouted as Zade and Aaron cannot help it but laugh since Jayden sounded like Aaron in the past.
