“THAT's what you get when you let your heart break.”

The celebration for the founding anniversary of Montello University officially started. Different booths and kiosks were scattered across the school grounds.

Chastity watched the final performance of Montello’s Got Talent which was judged by the four members of the Flying Colors. While waiting for the result, the band performed on the stage. They were playing Paramore's That's What You Get.'

Chastity couldn’t help but feel proud while looking at the four guys performing on the stage. They're not just good-looking, they're really talented.

“We love you, Blue.” The girls in front of Chastity cheered for the vocalist.

It was obvious that among the four members of the band, it was Blue who had the most fangirls. His voice was really one of a kind.

Chastity's gaze went back to the guy who was playing the bass guitar. Indigo playfully winked at her when their eyes met.

“Oh, my God!”

Chastity heard the girl beside her squeal. “Indigo winked at me.”

No, girl. He winked at me. Chastity wanted to say but then she chose to close her mouth. Instead, she just smiled.

“You're really good, Indigo. I can't believe you have so many fangirls," Chastity said to Indigo two hours later.
They were on their way to his car.

“How about you? Are you falling for me more every time you see me on the stage?" he asked, the corner of his lips curled up in a playful smile.

Chastity pursed her lips. “Hmm…just a little bit,” she playfully answered him.

“Baby,” Indigo said after getting inside his car. They were about to go to the restaurant where he and his bandmates planned to eat dinner.

“Hmm?”

He pursed her lips. “I’m sorry I rejected you at the audition.”

Chastity playfully rolled her eyes at him. “I know that I really can't sing, Indigo. I just really did that get your attention."

“I’m sorry I made you upset,” he said as he kissed the back of her hand. “You don’t know how much I want to lock you in my arms at that moment.”

She smirked. “Tsk. You acted as if you didn't care about me. But then you got jealous of Mark!"

Indigo's brows knitted. “Speaking of that guy. Is he really your friend."

Chastity chuckled at him. “He’s just a friend, Indigo. He's the first person who befriended me here in Montello."
Besides, that guy was head over heels with her best friend.

“But he’s still a guy, Chas."

Chastity smirked. “He’s a guy who’s very much in love with my best friend,” she said. “While I’m a girl who’s very much in love with you…”

“I want to kiss you right now.” Before she could react, Indigo's lip already landed on hers.

Chastity automatically closed her eyes and answered his kisses. But then they both get startled when someone knocked on the window.

Chastity's eyes widened when she saw Red outside. “Oh, my god,” she muttered as she fixed herself. She then felt relieved when she realized Indigo's car was heavily tinted.

Indigo softly cursed before he opened the car window.

“What?” Indigo snapped at Red.

But then Red just smiled at the both of them. "Hi, Chas," he greeted her before looking back at Indigo. "I need to hitch, dude. My car's broken."

He said before he opened the door of the backseat and slid himself there.

“Sorry if I disturb anything," Red said, grinning at both of them.

"Just shut up, Red," Indigo said before starting the car engine.

Chastity pursed her lips. Even if she couldn't see her own face, she knew her cheeks were red as strawberries right now.
From the side mirror, Chastity saw that Red was curiously looking at her and Indigo.

“Indigo, dude, I noticed that your lips are redder today. Hmm, did you two kiss...”

Red wasn't able to finish his sentence because Indigo throw him the tissue box on the dashboard.
“Aw!” Red said, covering his head. "Come on, I'm just teasing you, dude."

"Shut your mouth if you don't want to get thrown outside."

"Fine. I'm gonna zip my mouth now."

Chastity couldn't help the chuckle that escaped her lips.

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the restaurant. They immediately spotted Blue and Grey who were already waiting for them at a table.

Chastity suddenly felt uneasy when Grey looked at her. She remembered he was Kasandra’s best friend. But then she felt relieved when Grey gave her a welcoming smile.

“What do you want, baby?” Indigo asked her when the waiter handed them the menu.

“How about me, Indigo? You won't ask me what I want to eat?" Red playfully said.

“Shut up, Red.”

Red pouted like a kid. “Tss. You really are rude to me, dude."

Chastity chuckled. She learned that among the four members of the band, Red was the most playful one.

"Cut the drama, Red," Blue said to his cousin. "It's cringe."

Chastity noticed that the three guys looked at her and Indigo when their food came.

“Indigo, you ordered this strawberry ice cream?” Red asked, confused.

“Yup,” Indigo answered with a smile.

“I thought you don't like eating any strawberry-flavored food?" Blue asked.

“That was before,” Indigo said before turning to Chastity. “Baby, why are you not eating?”

Indigo asked her when he noticed she was still not touching her food.

Chastity looked at her plate of pasta. She didn't know why she suddenly lost her appetite, but then she still forced herself to eat.

While drinking her orange juice, Chastity suddenly felt nauseous. She held on to his forehead.

“Chas, baby, what's wrong?” Indigo asked in a worried tone.

“Nothing, Indigo.” She answered in a casual voice as she gave him a small smile. “I'll just go to the restroom.”

“I'll go with you.” Before she could stop him, he already stood from his seat.

“Really, Indigo? You'd still follow Chastity to the CR?" Red asked.

“Shut up, Red. Wait till you fall in love.”

“Are you sure you're fine, baby? You look pale,” Indigo asked her as he held her hand.

“I'm fine, baby. Don’t worry. I just feel a little unwell."

Indigo placed his hand on her forehead. “You don't have any fever though.”

“Baby, stop worrying.” She gave him a smile before she went inside the restroom.

Chastity looked at her reflection in the mirror. She looked pale. She opened her bag and took her medicine.

She fixed herself after. She was about to go out when her cell phone rang. It was her mother. She entered a cubicle before answering the call. “Mom? What is it?”

“I just want to inform you that I already booked our flight, Chas.” her mother said from the other line.

Her parents decided to bring her to the States. For her medication. Even before she went to Manila, they already agreed to that.

Charity sighed. "Alright, Mom."

“Your father and I will go there in Manila next week. We will leave two weeks from now.”

Two weeks. She only has two weeks to tell Indigo everything…
