"She is not your mate!" Growled Hunter.
Willow couldn't take it, so she charged forward, since no one seemed to be making a move. She was ready to use her bag like a baseball bat and she did. She smacked it right on Hunter's head.
Willow almost choked, when Hunter landed far into the restroom, smacking the wall. She stared at her bag and wondered when did she transform into Thor. But what she saw from the corner of her eyes disappointed her. She saw Rowan's hands held forward as if he had pushed Hunter off himself.
But the disappointment misted away when Rowan jumped up to his feet in a swift movement and pulled her in a tight embrace before cupping her cheek.
"Are you okay?" Rowan's eyes were searching everywhere on her face. "Did he do anything to you? Did he touch you anywhere?" At that Rowan threw the dirtiest glare at his shoulder where Hunter was now already standing on his feet, Willow felt like he had just taken his sweet time swimming in a pool called anger.
"I'm fine." Willow whispered as she peeked over Rowan's shoulder at Hunter who was charging forward like a mad bull. Willow wondered if he had missed his medicine in the morning. The way he was acting was so unlike the normal Hunter, who had a blank face most of the time or a scowl whenever their eyes meet. "Can we leave?"
Just then Hunter threw punch at Rowan, making Willow feel that Hunter was such a backstabber. Rowan spun just in time to avoid the punch.
But unlike earlier, the onlookers, who were acting like they had just had a staring contest with Medusa, moved. Or atleast some of them.
JR went over to restraint Hunter and Jason soon followed. Felix, came over, reluctantly, but what shocked Willow was what he was holding in his hand.
Willow raised her brows at the empty popcorn packet.
"What?" Felix didn't even look guilty. "I was enjoying myself."
"Where did you get that?" Willow asked as she dragged Rowan out of the bathroom.
Everyone made way for them, as if scared at what Rowan might do to them. But before they could step out of the restroom they bumped into Triple. Just what Willow was waiting for.
Triple, who would have normally glared and called Willow ugly and that he would never want her, was awestruck when she stared at Rowan, just like on the day that she first met Rowan. Willow didn't like how Triple seemed to be eye raping Rowan. Wasn't she Hunter's girlfriend? She might even be his mate, then why was she looking at Willow's mate like that.
But before Willow could share a piece of her mind with Triple, she heard the voice of someone she'd been hoping not to hear.
"What is happening here?" And here comes the Principal. Willow was sure he'd put Rowan in trouble, because Hunter was the Alpha, who everyone bowed to. Even though Rowan was the crown Prince, but not many were aware of it.
Hunter who was also coming out of the bathroom, paused. Everyone else who had been watching it like they were in the theater, started panicking. The ones outside scrambled to their classes.
Rowan paused. "I'm Rowan Kingson."
"That's a nice name. How old are you?" Asks Miss Peony.
"I'm seventeen."
"Oh my, do you have any dream job? What do you want to do after school?"
"Well, I want to be Willow's husband." Willow who was contemplating on throwing her fat World History book at Miss Peony, doubled over, choking.
The classroom was filled with gasps. Rowan, with a small smirk on his face, started towards Willow and to the seat beside hers. But he didn't stay there, instead he scooted his table to hers and sat down in the chair.
Silence engulfed the air. "Mr. Kingson, you can't move the table."
"But I want to sit beside my wifey." Said Rowan as he laced their hands together. Willow turned scarlet, but she herself felt happy so who was she to complain?
