High School: Way to Forever

Chapter 61: Kiss on cheeks!

Anna looked up and saw Alex has pressed the buzzer. She was surprised. 'Did he even know the answer or just pressed the buzzer by mistake?' Anna thought.

"Team Sant. pressed the buzzer. Please speak the answer."

"Its 0"

"Are you sure?" the guide confirmed again, to which Alex nodded.

"So, let us see the answer is correct or not. The judge will announce the winner accordingly."

The answer was not declared as correct. But it was also not said to be incorrect.

If they won, means the answer was correct because they needed 40 marks more to win, if Ciax won, the answer given by Alex will be incorrect.

Anna nudged him. "Do you think its correct?" she asked with a doubt.

"I'm sure."

"Let us see."

...

After 10 minutes.

Judges were on the stage.

"Both the teams did very well. We congratulate you both. But the winner is always one. So the winner of this quiz is..."

Anna closed her eyes and crossed her fingers.

"SANT. HIGH SCHOOL!"

Hearing their name, Anna literally started jumping. She hugged Alex by his neck and planted a kiss on his cheek in excitement.

"We WON! YESSSSSS!! Alex, Thank you so so so much."

Alex had a smile earlier. But seeing Anna's reaction, he was over the cloud. He never expected such a thing will give her so much joy.

His heart was beating loudly because of the kiss she gave him.'Is the kiss on cheek a special one?' Alex thought. But he snapped back into reality soon.

"This happened because of you." Alex said. He still maintained his calmness.

"But the last answer was answered by you. So we won because of you."

They stopped talking when judged called them for the award.

They were given two separate trophies and a certificate for school.

"Very good. You both did very well. You again made Sant. High School proud of you." Sir complimented them. He was really happy.

"Thank you Sir." Anna said.

"Sir, as we have won. I would like to request something from you." Alex suddenly said.

Anna and Sir looked up upon Alex. "Sure. What do you want?"

"It is said that we have to go back with you tomorrow. But we would like to stay here for a longer period on our own expenses. Can you help us in taking a leave from the school for two days?" Alex explained.

Anna understood. He was thinking of fulfilling her wish of mountains.

"Sure. I will do this for you. After all, you did this for our school." Sir said while holding the certificate of Quiz.

"Thank you so much sir." saying this, Alex and Anna took their goodbye.

.....

"Alex, I never knew that you have such a high IQ. We actually won because of you."

"You will see more of my talents and sides in meanwhile." Alex said proudly.

"Stop saying as if you are granted with superpowers." Anna rolled her eyes.

Alex just smiled.

They reached their room and Anna jumped on her bed and was ready to sleep.

"Alex, when we will leave for mountains?" she asked.

"Tomorrow. You can rest for today. One needs to rest to refresh their energy. We have two days. I have planned something. Its a surprise."Alex told.

Hearing that there is a surprise, Anna attentively woke up and sat on the bed.

"What is the surprise? Tell me now!!!" Anna never received any surprise. She was really excited to know what he has planned.

She continuously pestered Alex but he never uttered even a word.

"You are bad!" Anna said.

"So what?"

....

The next morning, it was time for them to leave for mountains.

Alex took Anna to a shop first.

"Why are we here, Alex?"

"You really want to know now?" Alex directly asked.

"Yes. I've been waiting for you to tell me. Now tell." Anna was serious this time. If he didn't tell her, she might pounce upon him and will not get up till he speaks.

"There are many people who are interested in going to the mountains to see the sunset and so campaigning. Both your wishes will be fulfilled this way."

"Y-You mean that we are not only going to see the sunset but also do campaigning?" she hesitantly asked.

"Much more. There will be treasure hunting, tracking, climbing the hills, and much more!"

"O" Anna's mouth was now shaped in O shape, she was confused about what to say. 'How did he even planned this?' Anna thought. But she wasn't going to ask.

"Anna, are you afraid?" he was a little bit nervous because he thought Anna might not like them.

Anna didn't reply and Alex was getting more and more nervous.

After a few seconds, Anna came back to reality from her dreamland.

"Anna?"

"Alex, You are the Best! It will so much fun. You know, I have never done this. And more people, which means more mates. Wow!" Anna now reacted properly.

"Call your mother once. There we will have a network issue." Anna nodded and took out her phone.

"Hello, mom?"

"Child, you didn't call me in the morning. Why so?" Mother Marrie asked. She waited for her call.

Anns scratched her forehead, "Mom, we woke up late."

"You won?"

"Yes Mom, We won! Because of Alex, he answered the right question at the right time! If not him, we might never win." Anna excitedly told.

But her excitement faded away with her mom's next question.

"Isn't your teammate a girl?"
