Chapter 13 Club (2/2)

”Then how about the swimming club you can cool yourselves down in the pool.”

”I seem to recall you saying there are many girls there, do you think I want Alex talking to other girls while in swimsuits?” The swimming club members stepped back from Rachel's piercing gaze.

The other clubs tried to persuade Rachel but were shut down by Rachel's logical excuses. When every club member failed, one final pitch for a club was proposed. The one who asked was none other than Alex's friend Oliver.

”If your not interested in any club, how about creating a new one? Not only will it look good on our resumes we could also get some club funding.”

There was a huge commotion when the students watching heard Oliver's proposal. Not able to take all the attention anymore, Rachel told Alex and Oliver to change locations before continuing the conversation.

The three ran out of the school premise and headed towards a family restaurant. Seeing as it was his first time in such an establishment Alex followed Rachel and Oliver's lead.

The three sat down and ordered some food and drinks. When the three had properly settled down Rachel was the first one to start the conversation.

”Hey Oliver did you really mean it? When you said we should create a club.”

”Yes I did... You know I've also been asked by many clubs to join them, but not one of them made me feel like joining. So now I found out my comrade and his girl was not attending any club, I thought that the three of us should create one.”

Rachel shook her head at the easy going answer Oliver gave her. ”You do know you need at least five people to be able to form a club, with the three of us we could only make a circle. If we create a circle we wont be able to get club funds, but we could be given an empty room to do our activities.”

”Then that's what we should do.”

”Stop making decisions for the three of us... What do you think Alex?” Rachel felt a little exasperated at Oliver's gung-ho attitude, so she asked Alex his opinion on the matter.

”I haven't been in a club or a circle before, but as long as I can stay by your side Rachel then it doesn't matter.” 'I could complete my mission better if you're close by.' Not hearing the thoughts Alex was having, Rachel felt embarrassed for Alex saying such a cheesy line.

”Well said comrade! So what say you Rachel? Let's enjoy our high school life while we can.” Oliver without caring about the other customers started laughing heartily. One of the waiters reprimanded them for being too noisy. Rachel apologized for the three of them, since both Oliver and Alex doesn't seem like they wanted to apologize.

Rachel felt a little headache coming and sighed. ”Fine then what kind of circle would you want to create?” This was but a start to a very eventful high school life.
