Chapter 23 - Rumors and Promotion

Jensen sat at his table solving a Rubik's cubes and mathematical equation.

Andrea and Jenna walked in chatting and not taking note of Jensen's current situation.

Jenna took her seat beside Jensen and Andrea sat on his desk.

"Hi Jen." She said as she kissed him on the cheek bringing out some of her books.

"Hi bud." Andrea said.

Jensen didn't answer. He was switching between rotating and writing.

Jenna looked at him closely and so did Andrea.

They had just noticed what he was doing.

The equation wasn't easy, but they knew that they could solve it as for the four by four Rubik's cube, that was going to be challenging.

Then all of a sudden, Jensen flipped the last color in place and gave the final answer for the equation.

He checked the timer on his phone and paused it immediately.

The two looked at the boy in front of them. Two minutes five seconds was displayed.

"Bloody hell dude. You really solve both of that in two minutes five seconds." Andrea said.

Jenna was still in shock. "Ahhh, I'm blessed with a competent and brainy boyfriend." She said placing her hands on her cheeks, closing her eyes and bobbing her head from side to side.

Then the atmosphere around her changed to something more serious.

"But on a serious note, how were you able to solve that so easily and quickly?" Jenna asked looking at the Rubik's cube.

"Yeah dude. Explain." Andrea demanded going through the solving. "I can solve this, but thirteen minutes tops, with the cube maybe half an hour or fifty."

"Back when I was in Japan and Korea, there were these special courses I asked my dad to enroll my sister and I. They made us solve Rubik's cube and solve equations like this so that our brains could think fast. Even our summers in France, Spain, and Portugal was kinda the same but France drilled us in answer french questions and solving. Spain was learning the tango and answer supposed tourist which were our cousins and grandparents. Portugal was different. If you don't answer quick enough, you get to eat a whole bowl of pepper sauce. Then again there was Germany and Italy but nothing really phenomenon as compared with our mother lands." He said.

The two sat in shock.

"You were traumatized as a child." Jenna said as she brought his head into her breasts.

Jensen struggled to bring out his head so that he could breath.

"Ne t'inquiète pas, mon doux mari." She said in French as she stroked his head. [Don't worry my sweet husband.]

Jensen managed to resurface his head although her hands were still around his neck.

"Are you trying to suffocate me with those big breasts of yours. They're so soft I could hardly breathe talk less about bringing my head out." Jensen said.

Jenna smiled as her cheeks turned red. Andrea coughed drawing them out of their episode.

"As much as I love you guys and your relationship let's limit somethings to NOT happen in class. It feels like I'm being oppressed because I don't have a girlfriend." Andrea said.

"Don't worry love, you'll find the girl soon." Jenna said smiling at him.

"Please don't go and arrange a blind date." The two boys said almost hypnotically.

"What's that meant to mean?" She asked.

"You know what it's meant to mean." They both said as their teacher walked in.

Jenna sat in the cafeteria beside Missy.

"So when is it?" Missy asked in hushed tone.

"Twentieth." Jenna said. "I wanna no if you can make it since you his henchman and if you can distract him a bit during that day?"

"Why not? Anything for my boss and his wife." Missy said teasingly.

"Don't let people hear you say that." Jenna said.

"But there was a rumor spreading round say that Boss used to masturbate with cooking oil." Missy said looking round.

Eyes were already on them since they know to be associated with Jensen.

"What the actual bullshit? Some people really have dicks for brains." Jenna spat out in disgust.

Just then Jensen walked in with Andrea and Mary.

All eyes were on them—Jensen to be more precise.

Andrea and Mary noticed the staring and how all was focused on Jensen.

"I think you've become popular Mr JOKER." Mary said gently as she took her tray and follow the boys from behind.

"Trust me, it's for something that screams 'high tendency for certified bullshit and fucked up talks' rather than something that says 'damn bro just aced the SAT' or 'he got a scholarship to a popular college' or 'Micheal Jackson is you distant Great uncle twice removed'." Jensen said as he took a bit out of his apple.

Andrea looked at Mary and they both sighed.

"You really do know how to blow things out of proportion." Andrea said.

As the ground was getting closer to where Danielle and her friends sat she opened her mouth to speak.

"So goth boy." She began. How does it feel jer—."

Jensen cut her off as he shoved the apple into her mouth.

"Shut it, you cunt. I don't have the strength for your pig shit behavior this morning. I need a lot of space for my food and reasonable talk." Jensen said walking by without batting an eyelash.

Andrea and Mary chuckled inwardly as they walked by.

"Ohhh!" Jensen said. "And someone try to help get the apple out before she'll be needing fake teeth before her fourties."

"Nice way to start a day. Don't you think Boss?" Missy said as Jensen dropped his tray beside Jenna.

"Why not?" Jensen said as he flashed Jenna a warm smile. "You know what?"

Jensen asked but no one answered.

"You're meant to say 'what' Missy." Jensen whispered as Andrea and Mary took their seat at either side of Missy.

"Ohhhh right." She said palming her face. "What is Boss?"

"Just forget about it." He said as Jenna feed him some of the pasta.

"Oh come on. It's rude to keep someone in suspense." Missy said whining.

"I'm not telling you again. Don't worry." He said with a little emphasis.

"Give the girl what she wants. Be a good Boss before I get upset with you." Jenna said as she took out her phone and began to text someone.

"Ha!! Fat chance." He said.

Jenna turned to face him with a serious look on her face.

"Fine. I don't want any of your mischief right now." He said.

The statement earned him a dangerous side glance from his girlfriend.

"Missy, you've been elevated from Henchman to Right Hand Man." Jensen said. "We'll woman in your case."

"Nice." She said pumping her fist. "Right Hand Woman to such a cool guy."

"But one warning." Jensen said grimly in a hushed tone.

The words seemed to hang in the air as though suspended by a thread.

"Just don't betray my trust." He said jovially.

Just then a boy jumped unto the table and crouched in front of Jensen.

"Ahhhhh. The gothic Joker." He said.

Jensen looked behind him and signaled Andrea to move the girls beside him away.

"Care to tell us how cooking oil feel on you dick." He said loudly.

The entire cafeteria burst out laughing at what he said.

"That sounds funny coming from a guy that used hand sanitizer next to the girls locker room." Jensen said smugly.

The whole cafeteria went silent.

"Damn. So that's where that white stain came from." A girl shouted and the caf erupted in laughter again.

"You ass." The boy said about to grab Jensen.

"I hope you've got a strong neck." Jensen said.

He swiftly got unto the table performing a sweeping kick at his legs.

The sudden action made the boy lose his balance and fall down head first.

As his neck was about to come in contact with the edge of the table, Jensen placed his hand at the estimated spot.

His neck hit Jensen's hand and he fell with a loud groan.

He signaled Andrea to come back. "Where did we stop." He said as though he walked out of the shower.
