Adopted Soldier-Chapter 13

Chapter 13

After beating Aldrich in the tennis match, a swarm of people gathered around Alex and his group . These people were all from sports related clubs . They who had witness Alex's athleticism wanted to invite him into their club . If they have even one more talented player their budget might increase . Not only is Alex a talented individual, he was also a first year that meant his full potential was still unknown, his future was limitless .

"Hi Alex I'm from the tennis club, with your serve being a pro is not just a dream for you . "

"No shit! Why would he want to join your club that challenged him? Join the karate club instead, I saw how you hit the ball with your palm, you must be practicing some form of martial arts . You could release your full potential with karate . "

"How about joining the swimming club?! It's full of girls that would love to talk to you while wearing swimsuits . "

"No join the dance club! I saw how you balanced your body, your flexibility is exquisite! If you join the dance club you can touch a girl's body anytime . How about you join with Miss Rachel that way you two can become couple dancers . "

There were many clubs trying to gain Alex as a new club member but he couldn't care less, he looked at Rachel and asked "what club are you in?"

Rachel sighed at Alex's question she knew the reason why he would ask her this question . "I used to be in the archery club, but I stopped going since I was the only member left . The club has been disbanded now I'm in the go home club . "

"Then I guess I'll attend the go home club with you . " Alex looked at Rachel as if she was the only thing his eyes could see . Rachel already predicted this answer as well as what would happen after .

The different clubs hearing Alex's question and Rachel's answer already knew what to do . The club that can rope in Rachel, can get Alex .

"Miss Rachel a girl needs to know how to defend herself in this dangerous times, how about learning karate?"

"I already have Alex to defend me why should I learn karate?" Rachel shut down the karate club members .

"But Alexander wont always be there for you, its still better for you to learn, just in case . "

"You hear that Alex, this guy says you wont be able to be there for me . " Rachel already guessed the karate club members would try to persuade her this way, so she had an answer ready .

"There is no way I wont be there for Rachel in her time of need . " Alex answered with his indifferent tone of voice . Rachel already expected this answer, but hearing it out loud was still embarrassing .

"How about learning how to dance . Isn't it romantic to dance with your special partner?"

"I can dance anytime I want, since I already know how to dance . If I wanted to dance with Alex I can just teach him how to properly dance . " The dance club members didn't know what to say to that and left dejected .

"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 .
