Chapter 29: Happy With Your Face, Not With the Attention

If I had a dollar for every time I got a weird look today... Iโ€™d probably still be broke.

But Iโ€™d also have a minor God complex. ๐™ง๐™š๐™š๐”€๐’†๐“ซ๐“ท๐™ค๐“ฟ๐’†๐™ก.๐’„๐™ค๐“ถ

Because apparently, all it took was Celestia dragging me through a makeover marathon last weekend to turn me from invisible anime club president to hot enough that people are blinking twice.

My hair looked better. My skin wasnโ€™t ghost-level pale. My outfit didnโ€™t scream "I download anime through torrents." I didnโ€™t even wear my thick glasses todayโ€”just the contacts she made me get.

And now?

Now girls were looking at me.

Like... looking looking.

And Celestia?

She. Was. Pissed.

---

The first one struck during Econ.

Some rich kid named Talia leaned over her chair and whispered, "Youโ€™re in Business Analytics, right?"

"Uh... yeah?"

"Great," she said with a slow smile and a flick of her lashes. "Iโ€™m, like, dying in that class. You think we could study? Maybe... at my place?"

Her place.

Why did her place suddenly sound like a trap?

---

The second was worse.

Some shy girlโ€”quiet, always sits near the backโ€”came up to me after class. Stammered something about calculus. I said sure, why? Because Iโ€™m a dumbass.

While I was explaining the basic chain rule, she kept nodding and staring and nodding and not looking at the notebook at all.

Behind me?

Celestia sat with a mechanical pencil.

By the time the girl thanked me and walked off?

SNAP.

She broke the pencil in half with one hand.

I pretended not to hear it.

I value my life.

By the time school ended, I tried escaping through the side hall.

No luck.

She caught me near my locker, arms slamming both sides of it so I couldnโ€™t move. Like a yandere bat signal had gone off in her brain.

"You think youโ€™re funny, huh?" she said, eyes burning. "With your pretty boy makeover and your girls with their study-session come-ons?"

"I didnโ€™t ask for thisโ€”"

"Oh really?" she sneered. "You think I dressed you up so girls could eye-fuck you during calculus? What did they say, huh? Did they ask to ride your face? Did they tell you theyโ€™d suck you dry in exchange for a graphing tutorial?"

"Valโ€”!"

> "Did they offer you their GPA and their panties? Huh? You like that attention, baby? You wanna be the pretty boy slut of the week?"

"I didnโ€™t say yes to anyoneโ€”"

She moved in closer. "If you so much as breathe near another girl who even thinks about touching you, I will ride your face until you canโ€™t form coherent sentences, Kai. I will make you cum so hard your brain resets and you forget the entire syllabus."

My soul tried to exit my body.

She narrowed her eyes. "And Iโ€™ll do it in public. Iโ€™ll make a goddamn display of it. So next time someone tries flirting, all theyโ€™ll see is me on your face and your GPA in shambles."

She turned around, huffing, walking away.

Then she paused. Glared back over her shoulder.

> "Arenโ€™t you coming?"

I blinked and swallowed. "Do I have a choice?"

She tilted her head, eyes locked on mine.

> "You never did."

And then she turned and walked away, like her words werenโ€™t sitting on my chest like a ten-ton threat laced with lust.

I hesitated, just for a second then I followed.

Because saying no to Celestia Valentina Moreau isnโ€™t brave.

Itโ€™s suicidal.
