Oaklynn was flustered as her eyes popped open almost from her socket she sat startled about what she heard while Axel blushed where he stood.

"Come on Axel, why am I just hearing about this?" Oaklynn shrugged jokingly.

"Mom, you were just recovering. I was waiting for the right moment to tell you. Didn't consider to tell you immediately," Axel guiltily stroked his chin.

"Ooh really? That's not an excuse, I mean, just look how I missed out on important stuff that happened," Oaklynn said and chuckled softly and Ottiline joined her.

"Of course, I get the feeling, but trust me, my grandson, your son meant well," Ottiline said afterwards.

"Alright then, if that's the case. I'm just startled that Charmaine has been your good friend and no one ever knew she would end up being the one for you," Oaklynn felt flustered since she wasn't expecting it.

"I mean it wasn't obvious then that feelings were between the two of you, but no wonder it was like you were inseparable and she was the cling

    Axel Dankworth waltzed elatedly towards Duncan Hillside High School for studies in search of Ryan Flannery his girlfriend. He glanced at his wristwatch succinctly and was filled with euphoria about the fact that it was 7: a.m. and that he was prompt for school duties. It was accustomed for class to commence at 8:am but it would be prudent for one to appear at 7:am in school to get set for the day. He was amongst those that agreed to do this and it was counted unto him for his slight smugness. He bounced towards the school walkway briskly and then moved towards his locker to place his bag thereafter unlocking it with his key. He scrutinized the whole area in search of Ryan because he knew he wanted to see her. They had both planned that they would meet at this particular time and space and he was flustered as to why he didn't see her. He cupped his cheek as he glanced once more time and it was the same results. "Hey Axel," Some students passing by greeted him succinctly and amic

    Axel tried to act surreptitiously about his current grave peril when he packed his bags. Normally it would be grotesque for a student to return home after coming early as he did, but it was his irrefutable condition. "Hey, Axel! What's wrong? Hope you are good?" Drew McConnell passed by and gazed at Axel packing all his loads and was bewildered. "Yeah, I'm good. I will chat with you about it later when I get home," Axel replied and resumed packing his loads unperturbed. Drew felt a tad culpable about the fact he had to evade the scene with the others when the Hardy Boys got there. "I'm sorry I evaded when the Hardy Boyz were present," Drew implored apologetically even though he knew that most of Axel's friends did the same. "Ooh, you mean those Nordic Shit-wits. It's nothing, you did the right thing," While Axel waggled to the exit of the school with his bag, he glanced at the Hardy Boyz all sneering at him. He knew they must have caught wind of what must have happened. He bo

    Axel finally picked himself up from the floor as his stomach flipped and he hung his head low in the presence of people passing by. "That lucky bastard!" He mumbled inwardly, rolling his eyes, shuddering his shoulders and clenching his jaws as he waggled out of their premises back home. Axel was already fed up with the rancid words that were said against him so far for that day, especially by the hardy Boyz. His frowny face squished further into the ground as he waltzed to take a taxi back home. While he was being driven back home, in his state of sobriety, myriads of sadistic thoughts flushed his mind as he massaged his temples. "Was I beguiled all this while? Thinking that I was in a relationship, whereas Ryan had been using me all this while?" He mumbled inwardly as tears pricked against his eyes. He was completely whacked off his mind and a chill of dread seeped into his bones because he was fed up with what he had gone through so far and finally a slay tear slithered down, t

    Madam Ottiline's words trickled down his ears as he felt super pumped about the news he had just heard. His heavy gaze lingered on her as he got hitched through myriads of thoughts within himself. If everything was true, it meant that his current grave peril would be reversible. He chuckled sably and inwardly to himself at the hardy Boyz. He couldn't help but be gleeful about their reactions when they found out who he was. He felt a tug of relief etched in his heart. "I need to check on my foster mom, grandma," He implored facing Ottiline who nodded her head and not in repugnance. Her lips curved into a broad smile as she spoke with her lips twitching upwards in an amicable manner. "Of course dear. You can confirm it for yourself, then she would be able to confirm how she and your foster Dad found you to keep you safe and bring you up to this point," Ottiline voice boomed in an aced manner. "Alright.." Axel stuttered as he waggled out of the flashy mansion with his diamond card

    Axel had a sly grin at the corner of his mouth as he rode back on his bicycle. He was back in school and was feeling very gleeful about his current return. His friends, Drew McConnell, Quinn Relish and Charmaine Blair were flustered to see him in school because the news had spread out like wildfire about his expulsion. He greeted them warmly as he halted his bicycle at the school grounds ignoring the stares from the students. "We all heard you got expelled," Drew started. "Yes, Axel. Is this true? Why didn't you tell us?" Quinn's lips twitched upwards in curiosity. "I didn't want to bother you since school time was still on and I wanted to keep you all from being distracted," Axel stiffened. "Those hardy Boyz are deplorable in their acts," Charmaine clenched her jaws as she groped her hips with her hands. "Yes, that's why you all should be careful. I got back because I got a letter that says that I can return," Axel displayed the letter in his hands gleefully. "Wow, we are so h

    Hayden's handsome face twisted to an ugly growl when he heard this. He couldn't believe what Axel had uttered. He plonked down next to Silas who held him stable out of respect. He couldn't help but gaze with a humorous glimmer after he had gotten himself. His heated words were chiding and he couldn't help but blurt it all out. "You this white, redneck, hillbilly, inbred piece of shit!" Hayden growled abrasively. Hayden stiffened his face as he seethed with more boldness even though Axel looked like a trapped bunny amid wolves like the hardy Boyz. Heat crept up Axel's throat and face because he was pissed off about all the perturbation he was getting from them. He watched as Ryan winced as she tried to remove herself and mulled over their relationship. Deep down, he had thought she was contrite about what she had done, but he knew that her conscience pricked her. "If only she had stayed a little longer with him before she bubbled him, she might have had to enjoy his riches but

    Principal Oberon Collymore massaged his temples as he mulled over at his desk in his office. Duncan Hillside High School had been a heavy load to carry and manage as the principal, but he had to do it nevertheless. His brows furrowed, as he chewed the temple tip of his recommended glasses in his palm and put them on his back. He glanced through the list of aced students he had planned to award soon. He stumbled across Axel's name and nodded his head. He heard about the news and he had so much hope for Axel, but felt bad that he had to be expelled. He knew he couldn't undermine the command that Elias gave as a senior member of the board, and he had to comply. He felt contrite about the fact that he was the one who gave the expulsion verdict. He gritted his teeth, as he mulled over how Axel must have felt all this while. He was known to be very friendly and sympathetic towards the students, too bad his powers and authority were limited when it came to issues that the full board w

    Oberon jolted at his desk as he heaved a shuddering grunt. "What! How? When!" He barked succinctly. Drew nodded his head succinctly. "Yes, principal. We had just departed from him after we exchanged greetings when the news got to us and we had to report to you before we took the next step," Drew added. Oberon's knees became like rubber as he whimpered in distress. His hands quivered as he heaved a heavy breath. "Where is this happening?" He spoke succinctly. "At the school field," Drew, Quinn and Charmaine said in unison. Oberon waltzed out of his office immediately towards the school field with a plethora of anxious thoughts flushing through his mind. Drew, Quin and Charmaine followed after briskly because they knew this time they must stand against the hardy Boyz in a polemic manner. Oberon waltzed into the school field in a panicky manner. Even though his job as the principal of the school was threatened, he knew that wasn't the cure reason why he would love to do Birch's bi

    A tug of relief etched in Elias's heart as he sat on one of the lounges and balanced himself to speak. "Son, there is no need to worry, because you won't be suspended anymore," Elias rasped and coughed slightly. "Honestly, am supposed to be excited about this, but still I can only help but be relieved because that idiot, Axel still walks as if he owns the school," Hayden scowled. "Come on son, after all, you are still in the school, so there is absolutely nothing you should worry about," Elias let out a low puff. "Hmm, this is interesting. So in other words, Hayden was guilty but got off from this and wasn't suspended?" Rita said as she waltzed into their presence in curiosity. "Come on Mom, you can't possibly be taking the side of someone you haven't even yet seen," Hayden snapped. "I know you, son," Rita retorted and faced Elias. "Dear, don't you think we need to have a talk with our son about these unscrupulous acts of his at school? I mean everyone knows how big of a bully he

    Charmaine felt her stomach clenched at the presence of Ryan and pondered about the main reason why she wanted to see her. "Wouldn't you speak? Or weren't you the one who wanted to see me?" Charmaine said impatiently. "Hmm, I can see that you and Axel are finally a thing. I knew it was right to suspect that you both had something for each other even right while we were still dating," Ryan croaked out with her hands around her waist. Charmaine was startled and shot up from the chair in astonishment. "You are so delusional to believe that Axel would cheat on you. Even if we had some sort of feelings for each other while you both dated, it still didn't change the fact that you cheated first simply because of money," Charmane yipped. Ryan let out painful laughter and massaged her temples to tame her temper for the time being. "Yes, isn't that true? You think I don't know that even though I and Axel are now a couple, you still have feelings for Axel, but you quickly changed to date Hay

    "Who would dare suspend you?!" A wave of fury rippled through Elias as he clenched his fist in rage. "Principal Oberon of course! Dad and I do not understand what's going on," Hayden croaked out bitterly. "Then it must be a misunderstanding. Just one phone call and everything would be in order," Elias rumbled, perturbed at what he was being told. "I just hope, because I am just wondering why that puny little turd of a young man, Axel who was a new student would be favoured over me in a case," Hayden grimaced as he exited to his room. Elias's wife, Rita came in afterwards from the kitchen in a concerned mood. "I heard Hayden's voice. Don't tell me he is at it again, him and his unscrupulous acts once again?" Rita let out a low puff. "Come on, shouldn't Hayden be given the regard he deserves as being our son? Now that good-for-nothing, Principal Oberon is threatening to suspend him," Elias yipped under his lungs. "All am saying is you shouldn't support him yet when you haven't hea

    Charmaine lips quivered and she had no choice but to stutter with her words. "What's that..." She shuddered. Her stomach flipped and her eyes became more flickering as she blushed. "I think I do care about you more than a friend. I do like you, and I want us to be more intimate than we have already been," Axel pronounced making her feel a thrill in her heart as he shot a piercing gaze at Charmaine which made her jaw drop. "Ooh, okay," Charmaine said and they stopped dancing and she shot a desiring look at Axel also. She knew that Axel had a sparkle in his eyes that intrigued her. "I do like and care about you also at first, but I wasn't sure you were ready for a relationship and that's why I didn't bother telling you," Charmaine summoned boldness to express her feelings effusively. "Wow?" Axel stuttered, his tone laced with astonishment and his ears perked up in delight. "Yes," Charmane replied gazing deeply into Axel's eyes and Axel, like a love predator before his prey gave he

    Gertrude waggled into the classroom with a scowl on his face. He knew that Hayden and his pals were up to some unscrupulous acts again which he strongly detests. His presence caused the cacophony to halt succinctly. He honed in towards Hayden with his intense eyes as the whole class got ready for the lecture. Drew, Quinn and Charmaine returned and waltzed into the class from the meeting they had in the group. Hayden's lips stuck out playfully because he knew the mischief he had created. Gertrude seethed through clenched teeth and hissed with disgust as he flipped open his textbook to start with the class. His tone was laced with coldness as he skimmed through on revision of what they did in the last class. When he was done with the class, he waltzed out in a caveating manner to Hayden and the rest of the hardy Boyz... Axel was gleeful to return home, then towards the hospital to inform his foster mom about everything that had happened. Oaklynn growled with exasperation after A

    Axel was scoffed at because he looked so unkempt and scraggy. It was supposed to be Gertrude's history class and everyone was in anticipation of his arrival. He frowned deeply and inwardly where he sat. His best pals weren't present in class because of an impromptu group meeting outside history they had to attend and they took excuses. He would have had someone to talk to, to feel less bad. His palms pressed hard against his chest as he wished that the cacophony and fracas could end in a second. The jest made lumps grow in his throat which made him feel uncomfortable. It got to a time when his cheek burned in anger when he couldn't take it anymore and bobbed his eyes shut. Hayden and Ryan alongside the hardy Boyz stormed into the class. Axel's eyes twitched because he felt bad. The corner of his lips fell towards the floor. He was prudent enough to hide such emotions. Even though he was the emotional type, he was very confident in himself that he would be able to get over her

    A state of anxiety rippled through the air as everyone wondered who Axel was to Oberon and why Oberon would take his side. Axel's Pals, Drew, Quinn and Charmaine waggled close to him to comfort him because of what he had gone through. He was indeed in a mess. Oberon's eyes glittered with sadistic emotions. He couldn't believe that he might have partially failed in his task, as Axel was still assaulted and everything went tit-up. Oberon's head cringed as he waggled contritely towards Axel's side. "I'm sorry, I didn't know who you were, but now I do," He said in a very hush and hoarse voice. Axel's friends were dumbfounded and felt bewildered that Oberon was trying to hoodwink Axel into thinking he was supporting him over Hayden and his guys. Axel understood and chuckled inwardly as a sly grin appeared on his face. He knew he had to be subtle if he still wanted to shield his identity even from his closest friends. "Drew, Quinn and Charmaine, you can leave now," He flashed a perf
