《Mr Reigns》Chapter 7: Unexpected

"So you accepted?" Ella asked. I nodded. We were sitting at the table for lunch. Julien didn't seem to adore the idea of me faking this whole rumor thing with Kale as he was shaking his head.
"You're sure you took the right decision?" Julien asked. "I mean, you do realize that you'll have to spend time with him, right? He's kinda violent so, you have to be careful" Oh shit. I haven't actually thought about that.
"By the look on her face, I'd say that she hasn't thought about it" Angel said. I sighed and nodded.
"It can't be that bad" I mumbled to myself.
"It's not bad at all! " Ella exclaimed. "There are so many girls who would love to be in your shoes right now" my best friend said while fanning herself. "Me on top of the list" she continued. I turned to look at her. I suddenly remembered something.
"How was your date with Ajay?" I asked. Angel, Ace and Julien all turned their attentions to her. Ella stopped fanning herself and blinked several times before settling her eyes on me.
"Honestly" she started hesitantly. "It was good" she said. "It was really good. I thought it was going to be boring but it was not" She said. I stared at her, trying to understand whether she was sincere or not. Surprisingly, she did appear to be. "So I accepted to go on another date with him" she said proudly. I smiled. In fact, everyone smiled except Julien.
"You're not doing that only for the money, right?" he asked, making Ella turn to punch him.
"You deserved that" Angel told Julien.
"You make me feel like a gold digger" Ella pouted.
"Because that's how you act at times" I told her. Everyone nodded. Even Angel.

"I acted. That's how I acted" Ella corrected. "Now I'm a new Ella" she said while wiggling her eyebrows. "A better, sexier and smarter version of myself" she told us while twirling on herself. We chuckled while shaking our heads.
"Well, that's a good thing" Julien said, sounding unsure. "We gotta go to class" he continued. I noticed that Julien was uncomfortable. Maybe it was because of the fact that Ella was willing to change because of Ajay. Something that she wasn't willing to do when she was dating Julien.
"I got no more class. So I'll be heading home" I told them. We all stood up and started making our way to the main door. They usually drop me to my car before heading to their classes.
"Angie! Come on!" a girl shouted from the corridor. Angel turned to look at us, as if asking if it was okay for her to go. We all nodded and watched as she walked away.
"Come on" Ace said, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. Everytime when Angel wouldn't be here, then he would stay close to me. Before they would start dating, Ace would behave like this. He would hug me. He would kiss me occasionally on my forehead. When he started dating Angel, everything stopped, which I completely understood. But he still does those things when Angel was not around. I shook my head, not wanting to debate on that furthermore.
"Oh my fucking lord!" I heard Ella gasp. I turned my attention to her. In fact, every one's attention was on her. She was staring at someone in front. I followed her eyes and my jaws dropped open when I saw Kale Reigns leaning against a freaking ferrari. He was wearing a black suit and we could still distinct the tattoos that he had under the sleeves. My mouth went dry. Now I understood why Ella had such a fascination for me. My hands unconsciously touched my mouth to see whether I was drooling or not. "Oh my fucking lord!" Ella repeated.

"We got it!" Julien exclaimed as he blocked his ears from Ella's piercing voice. Kale rose his head from his phone. I froze when his green eyes met mine.
What was he doing here?
"What is he doing here?" Ace voiced out my thought. On cue, Kale motioned me to come over with a move of his head. I blinked.
"Did you see that?" Ella questioned dreamily. "Did he just ask me to come over?" With that, Julien laughed and playfully hit her arm.
"That was for Kayra" Julien told her. I reluctantly walked towards him. I could hear steps behind me. I knew that my best friends were following me. Of course, they'd follow. I pushed Ace's arm off my shoulder and watched as he turned to glare at me.
"Guys. Stop following me" I mumbled loud enough for them to hear.
"We are your best friends!" Ella said. I decided not to answer. I knew that they were stubborn and creeping on people were their passion. When I reached Kale, I offered him a smile. It soon disappeared when I received none.
"What are you doing here?" I asked politely.
"I'm supposed to pick you up and drop you home" Kale responded, his eyes not leaving mine. I knew that it was only to spark the rumor.
"Hello, I'm Ella!" I heard my best friend exclaimed from beside me. I rolled my lips in my mouth and decided not to react. Kale's eyes switched from me to Ella. He placed his hands in front of Ella.
"Kale Reigns" he introduced himself as he shook her hand. Ella seemed like she was about to faint.
"And that's Ace, you met him yesterday and Julien" I said, motioning to my two other best friends. Kale shook their hands, giving them a curt nod. Even though he was not smiling, he was still polite to them.
"We need to go" Kale told me. I turned and handed my keys to Ace. The latter's eyes sparkled when he saw my keys twinkling in front of him.
"You're taking my car back home" I said. He nodded happily and before all my friends left, they all hugged me. Ella seemed to be frozen on the Sexy man standing in front of me.
"Let's go!" Julien snapped, wrapping his hands around her waist, pulling her away, making me chuckle.

The Simulacrum
"He who fights with harem tropes should see to it that he himself does not become a harem protagonist. And if you gaze for long into a narrative, the narrative gazes also into you." --- Friedrich Nietzsche (probably?) How would you react if one day you woke up inside an environment running on tropes and clichés? For allegedly average high-schooler Leonard Dunning, this question became quite relevant when one day he woke up in a pristine city on a strange island in the middle of the Atlantic, without any memories, surrounded by classmates who are barely more than characterless placeholders, and with a classic indecisive harem protagonist and his impossibly beautiful love interests for friends. That would be hard to deal with already, yet his investigation into the tropes governing the world, trying to avoid harem shenanigans, and his odd blend of outside-context knowledge, unique abilities, and a penchant for causing trouble wherever he goes ends up dragging him into the center of the action anyway. Disclaimer: This is a tongue-in-cheek, slice of life romantic comedy, with occasional sprinkles of combat and mystery to spice things up. Please do not expect a straight up deconstruction beyond some in-universe meta-commentary by the characters.
