Mischa's POV

I'm in the auditorium now for four hours, I'm already tired because of dancing plus last night I didn't slept well because again my mind is occupied by none other than my pervert orphan. I kissed her last night, it's only on the cheeks but it made me shiver. I'm sure I made her day, she's so happy when she woke up, she even made me a coffee and sandwich.

I'm teaching Andrea some steps for her to memorize, half of my classmates were here as well because they want to help. We're the defending champion and hoping that we'll win again. Andrea seems to enjoy what she's doing. I don't know who's next to use the auditorium so I called my classmate attention.

"Everyone! Please gather your things. The next group will occupy this so be ready, our time is already finished." I said while clapping my hands.

They all did what I told them to do. I walked to the table where my iPod is placed, I frowned when I saw a phone, what captures my attention is the keychain on it. It looks extremely familiar. I searched for my phone in my bag to confirm my conclusion.

"The heck" it's the same as mine, the difference is hers was a star and mine's moon.

"Who's the owner of this phone?" I muttered while looking from my left to right.

"Mischa!" I'm startled by Maggie's appearance.

"Fudge you startled me" I said holding my chest.

"Oh I'm sorry" she said while picking up her phone. My eyes widen, so she's the owner! My eyes averted to her keychain again.

"Beautiful isn't it?" She said after a while.

"Uh...huh?" I asked her confused.

"This" she said lifting up her phone to make a good view of her keychain.

"You have too right?" She added while pointing to my phone, I'm holding it on my right hand. I chuckled.

"Yeah, I guess Heaven gave it to you as well? She's a very loving cousin" I said hastily, she smiled at me simply.

Does she know something? I asked mentally to myself.

"Uh... I think its high-school's department now right?" I said when she didn't talk afterwards, she's just caressing her keychain as if it's an important thing to her.

"Yeah" she said still smiling.

Why do I have the feeling that she knows something? Again I asked mentally. I bid goodbye to her and took a final glance at her phone. I thought the keychain is just for me but I guess I'm wrong, honestly it's been a month since she gave me the keychain but I didn't bother removing it, not because I like it but because I never gave attention to it, not until now that I saw another one with Maggie.

Are they dating? I asked myself for the third time as if it'll answer me.

I shook my head and about to go out when I saw Heaven arrived wearing a revealing baggy crop top. I rolled my eyes. She always wants to wear clothes that make boys notice her in a perverted way. She shouldn't wear clothes like that in school premises. I put down my bag and leaned on the wall. She's gonna dance I can tell and I want to see it. She should have chosen a unique talent, I'd prefer her playing violin.

She's gonna show her steps, I crossed my arms as I watched her dance in the tune of Problem and Wiggle. All I do is frown during her performance, it's very sensual that it makes me want to pull her far from Max. I know him, he's part of cheering squad and a total playboy, a lot of girls like him because of his perfect physique. I don't know what I'm feeling right now, I'm not happy knowing that she gave Maggie a keychain just like mine and Max shaking his front on her butt. I think I'm jealous not because I like her romantically but because I look at her as my little sister. Sisters should be the best of friends and much closer.

I'm a loving sister who doesn't want her sibling to be in a world of malicious people, I want her to be simple to avoid maniacs. I walked forward when she's done to tell what's on my mind but she ignored it. She always does what she wants just like David's sister. Now I can say that they fit each other.

The way she danced with Max felt like they're in a relationship. Most of the good looking boys in our school courted me except that Max.

I didn't argue when she refused my suggestion because I don't want to look like I'm affected by her flirting with Maggie and Max. I pulled her out of the auditorium as soon as they're done practicing, I'm so tired but I don't want to go home alone, I'm used to her going home with me so I didn't allow her to go with her friends because it's getting late plus her outfit draws attention to boys.

****

Heaven left earlier, today is the pageant and I'm nervous for her, I'm gonna take the final walk so I need to prepare for myself, I walked to the couch where Potchi is lying.

"Move!" I said pushing her to the corner using my feet. She didn't bark, she just did what I say. I sat cozily while my feet resting on the center table, I'm not in the mood to move much. I chuckled after a while.

"She really thought she's gonna win, I'm sure a lot of contestants are smart and stunning, she's too young for that kind of competition" I muttered while shaking my head. I closed my eyes to take a nap when my phone vibrated. It's David.

"Hello!" I said excitedly,

"Mischa hello" he said sounding happy, I missed his voice though he always call.

"Hello David!" I said mimicking his Accent. He chuckled which brings music to ears.

"I missed you, if it's not too much with you can we have a date again?"

"I'd love to!" Was all I said, I'm getting excited now.

"Oh that's great. Are you free this Saturday?" He asked with a hopeful tone.

"Yes,yes!" It's like he's proposing to me ugh, again he chuckled.

"You're making me laugh Mischa, you always made my day" I'm gonna melt right now, I'm giggling like a high-schooler.

"Woff!" I frowned when Potchi barked.

"Shhhhh!" I said covering her mouth.

"Oh your dog seems to hate me" he joked.

"No,no... I bet she's excited to meet you" I said laughing nervously. This dog is so loyal to Heaven!

"I'm excited too. Anyway Mischa, I'll see you on Saturday and I'll call you after my meeting later, bye" are we in a relationship already? I asked myself giggling.

"Bye David, take care" I said before hanging up. If he'll said that he loves me this coming Saturday I'm gonna tell him how I feel too. I so love to have him as my boyfriend and to introduce him to my friends. Except Heaven. My mind reminded me. I just snorted at the thought. Well she can't do anything because she's just an orphan.

"Oh, it's already late" I said then stood up to fix my things, I need to go to the salon to fix my hair and makeup. I'm the winner last year so everyone's expecting me to be stunning on my final walk. I refused to be one of the judges because it's complicated for me plus I don't wanna be bias in scoring.

The pageant started as soon as I arrived, braiding my hair Elsa style took almost of my time but it's alright because it does fit me. Heaven approached me before she was called. It's now her turn to present herself wearing her sportswear. In fairness to her costume it's really good and it's unique. I wonder where did she got that uniform.

Maybe Maggie I replied mentally.

The crowd cheered when she walked gracefully. She looks like a real model right now, but I will never tell her that. I looked around to look for Andrea but I didn't see her.

"Where the hell is she?" I muttered frowning. I was about to go outside of the dressing area when I spotted her in the technical.

"Andrea!" I snapped at her, her face flushed when she saw me.

"What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" I asked anxiously.

"Ah no, I was just... Uh I'm just checking my song if it's already included in the playlist" she said as she walked out of the tech area. I nodded though I'm a bit skeptical.

"Okay, let's go back to the dressing room" I said then led her back. She's the last one to walk so she ran back, good thing she's already wearing her sportswear which is kind of cliché. I told her to look for a unique sport, I rolled my eyes at her as she walked on the stage.

After a minute, the talent portion came, I positioned in front of the crowd because I'm one of the VIP.

Everybody cheered when Heaven was called, I didn't know that her surname is Watson. Well it does fit her.

"Oops looks like we're gonna have a bit of delay people" the host said. I suddenly became anxious, I wonder what happened back there. I looked at my watch to check the time. A minute have already passed.

"Uhm... candidate number 14? Everybody's waiting you know" the host reminded her.

"What's wrong with her?! Heaven what are you doing?!" I muttered. The crowed was starting to get bored. Just when I'm about to stand up she arrived. Everybody went silent.

"Ah well all of you were thinking why I'm wearing this outfit contradict to what I'm holding right now" I'm confused as well because I thought she will dance as planned. She's holding an acoustic guitar right now. Everybody's talking, wondering why.

"I'm supposed to dance but unfortunately something happened and I have to perform right now so... I'm going to sing, hope all of you will like it" she said smiling then started strumming the guitar.. The camera focused on her, she wears her cap in reverse and it only emphasized her beautiful face. This beautiful girl in front of all people who admired her was in love with me. I don't know if I should be proud or what.

You, got me caught in all these mess,
I guess, you can blame it on the rain.

My pain is knowing I can't have you, I can't have you. Why is she looking at me while saying those lines? I asked myself. It made me frown but it sounds good.

Tell me does he look at you the way I do, no...
Try to understand the words you say and the way you move? I think so...

Does he get the same big rush, when you go in for a hug and your cheeks brush? I don't know yet...

Tell me, am I crazy or is this more than a crush? You're definitely crazy Heaven Watson.

I catch my breath,
The one you took the moment you entered the room.
My heart it breaks at the thought of him holding you. I never want you to be hurt... I said as I shook my head.

Why am I answering all of those lines? I asked myself groaning. It's as if she's talking to me, the only difference is that she's using a guitar and she's singing it.

Does he look at you the way I do,
try to understand the words you say and the way you move?
Does he get the same big rush, when you go in for a hug and your cheeks brush?
Tell me, am I crazy or is this more than a crush?
Maybe I'm alone in this,
But I find peace in solitude knowing,
If I had but just one kiss this whole room,
Would be glowing.
We'd be glowing, we'd be glowing.

The whole time she's singing, I'm blushing. She's good in everything, her voice is so cool, it's very soothing and it made me close my eyes to savor every word that she sung. She looked at me once again and it made me smile, now I can say that I am proud, everybody liked what she just did, everybody clapped their hands, I even heard some people saying I love you and can you be my girlfriend. I'm speechless right now,

I'm impressed and all I can do is clap my hands to support her. The way she spoke the words while looking at me, It made me feel like the song is only for me. I blushed at that moment and again it made my heart flutter.

"What a brilliant talent you have there candidate no.14! I may say that you're a Girl Scout! Always prepared when it comes to trouble" the host said looking amazed as well. Everybody cheered as she bowed then walked to the back stage. The host called the last candidate which is my department, Andrea arrived with a tribal outfit, she's gonna dance as well.

She's beautiful but she doesn't have an impact when it comes to audiences, only the pharmacy department cheered for her, I shook my head while sighing. She should've painted something or do karate in order to be different. All of the candidates danced which is kind of boring because the steps were almost the same. Good thing Heaven sung.

The question and answer came but only the candidate from accounting department answered the question perfectly without stuttering, she's beautiful and has perfect body as well, she's my bet in the competition plus she has lots of supporters like Heaven. She may be great in the talent portion but it's different in Q&A.

"Okay let's call our next candidate! Heaven Watson!" Again everybody cheered, she's stunning wearing a body fitting super revealing gown, her boobs were screaming out and the slit almost revealed her precious center. Red made her look sophisticated as if you'll have an orgasm just by looking at her.

"Heaven please come to bed with me!" The man on my back screamed, I gave him a death glare.

"What?!" He asked me confused. I didn't respond instead I returned my focus on Heaven.

Of all the gown in the world! This is just a simple competition! I yelled mentally.

I'm gonna lecture her when we're home. The host started to speak. Everybody went silent including me, I don't want her to win but I don't like her to make a mistake. This is not a Miss Universe pageant so the questions were not that hard.

"Good evening Ms. High-school department"

"Good evening" she replied ecstatically, she's smiling flashing her perfect white teeth.

"Here's your question" he paused.

"What will you do if the person you love rejects you?" My heart skipped a beat. Of all the questions in the world.

"I'll cry of course, but that doesn't mean that I'll give up, rejecting someone doesn't mean that he/she doesn't love you back, sometimes you just have to wait for another perfect timing to tell them how you feel. Because I believe true love waits and someday he/she will get tired of rejecting you, trust me. Thank you" she said then winked afterwards. I don't know how would I react to what she said, the judges on my side were impressed because I can hear them talk.

"Whoa, what a nice words you have there, is it because you're already been in that situation?" The host asked curiously.

"Yes... I've been in that situation until now" my heartbeat stopped by her answer,

Oh no Heaven you should just shut up. I said mentally while looking at her sharply. I'm afraid that she will say that she's my girlfriend. I don't want to ruin my reputation.

"That's an interesting revelation, he's a lucky guy. Who would reject someone like you? Tsk.tsk" the host said while shaking his head, he's asking too many questions, he should be only asking once.

"Okay thank you, let's call on our next candidate! Miss Pharmacy department!" I sighed in relief when he called the next candidate.

I'm shaking my head during the Q&A on Andrea, she has the simplest question yet she didn't answer it properly. She only has beauty minus the brain, we're not gonna win this time. I groaned in annoyance. It's my turn now to walk on the stage after a minute so I headed to the backstage to prepare. I flinched when Heaven appeared on my back.

"Fudge!!"

"I'm sorry, so do you think I'm gonna win?" She asked me excitedly, I snorted.

"The accounting department is the best, didn't you hear her answer to the question? She's so great plus she has lots of fans and the judges likes her too" I said matter of fact. She just nodded while massaging her chin.

"Yeah you're right, she's pretty too and talented but I'll still win so you better prepare for our date" she said then walked to her friends direction.

"In your dreams" I muttered.

"Let's give a round of applause to our last year's winner. Mischa Lewis from pharmacy department!" Everybody cheered as I walked gracefully on the stage, I missed this feeling but I have to pass the crown, I walked for about a minute before exiting.

After five minutes of break all the candidates were on the stage all lined up. I'm nervous like I'm one of the contestants. My fingers crossed hoping that my bet would win.

"For our second runner up...."

Drum rolls...

"Andrea Silva from Pharmacy Department!" Seriously? I asked myself. I'm not expecting her to win anything because she's pathetic swear.

What's with the judges? Again I asked myself.

"And for our first runner up..."

Drum rolls....

"Sandra Evans from Accounting Department!" My whole world fell apart as I heard her name, she should be the winner, I looked to Heavens direction, I frowned when she's looking at me too. She winked then gave me a peace sign.

Oh my gosh, please don't.

"And our winner! The next queen of University High-school is....."

Oh my gosh please don't...

Drum rolls.

"Heaven Watson!" My eyes widen in disbelief, the high-school students cheered, actually all of the students cheered. She won, I can't believe it. The candidates kissed her cheeks to congratulate her.

"Now, Mischa Lewis will pass the crown to you" I flinched when the host called me, I walked slowly to where she is, I sighed before putting the crown on her head,

"Congratulations" I said almost whispering while shaking her hand, I'm about to let go when she held it tighter.

"Thank you" she said sincerely, somehow it made me smile, I guess she deserved it.

I didn't wait for her, I drove to my house immediately as soon as I stepped out of the stage. I'm tired and I bet she'll take long because of interviews and other commitments. Maggie would drive her home, at least I'll have a peace of mind for the mean time.

****

"Mischa wake up! Wake up! Wake up!" I groaned in annoyance, I put my pillow on my head to prevent hearing her annoying voice. Today is our date and I don't want to wake up yet. It's so early, it's only ten in the morning, I always wake up late when I'm not jogging because it's Saturday.

"Woff, Woff, Woff!" I'll kill that dog when Heaven's not around! I cursed mentally, I don't want to wake up yet.

"Mischa. Mischa. Mischa" I don't like people repeating every word that they already said, it's annoying. I threw my pillow on the door angrily.

"What?!!!! I'm still sleeping!" I yelled at her, I'm not gonna open my door.

"But it's our date today, you promised" she singsonged.

Ugh! Kill me now please!. David and I have a date today as well but I cancelled it because of that stupid bet. I thought I'm gonna win so I said yes to him. Why did she win?! I threw my blanket on the door as well. I'm so pissed right now but I don't have a choice, I promised her. I sighed heavily before opening my door.

"Good morning Mischa!" She said cheerfully, I almost laugh when I saw Potchi on her head.

"Get out of my way!" I said harshly then pushed her on the side. I can't control my smile and I don't want her to see it. They looked cute together! She's so cute with Potchi on her head.

"I made you a coffee
