Chapter 0457 L''s POV My rm went off at 7 a.m. on the dot. I almost took it and threw it across the room, but I knew today was a very important day and I needed to be up early to prepare for it.

    I certainly wasn''t prepared already despite Rachel and Ba hassling me about it.


    “Wake up, sleepy head!” I heard Rachel say as she swung my bedroom door open and went to open the curtains, allowing the bright rays of the sun to enter the dimly lit room. “We have a lot to do before the elections this afternoon and we can’t waste any more time!” I slid out of bed and went with her to the living room where Ba sat curled up on the couch. She had a notebook and a pen on herp, and she stared up at me eagerly.


    Alex, who spent the night on the couch, sat on the ind stool near the kitchen area, watching us like he had better things to do with his time.


    “We have to start thinking about your speech now. We literally have no more time,” Ba said as I sat beside her, and Rachel sat on the other side of her.


    “I''ve just been so busy with other things, the speech didn’t seem to matter much,” I said with a shrug, and I wasn''t sorry.


    I''ve been busy with fundraisers, tutoring, and event/project nning. I barely had any time to think about my speech. I did this all for the school and I wasn’t going to be made to feel sorry for that.


    “Okay, so what kind of things should I talk about for this election?” I asked, staring at the nk notebook.


    “Well, we know Sarah is going to pretty much buy her way through this. Her speech is going to be about all the things she can buy for the school. She''s going to unt her daddy’s money in everyone''s faces and they are going to feed into it. So, you need to talk about something that money can’t buy,” Rachel exined.


    “L cares so much about this school and the little activities she does to make it better is proof of that,” Ba said in return. “Everyone already knows that.” “That won''t be a match for the shit Sarah buys them,” Rachel murmurs. “You said something about a back-to-school dance.


    How''s that going?” “We haven''t really done any nning for it yet,” I admitted; it was something I wanted to do, but I haven''t really had a lot of time since returning to school and dealing with the whole Xander thing, which they still had no idea about.


    “Then maybe you can talk about that,” Ba said, writing it down in the notebook. “You can talk about all the great things you envision for this school, including the mural.” “A mural that might not happen if I don’t win,” I muttered, leaning back on the couch.


    “I thought it was already approved?” Ba asked.


    “I thought so too, but apparently it wasn''t run by Alpha Jonathan first and he doesn''t want the mural. But he said if I win then we can do the mural,” I exined.


    Both Ba and Rachel groaned miserably.


    “Of course, he said that,” Rachel muttered. “ What other things did you want to do for the school?” “Well, I was thinking about starting a schoolmunity service program,” I said, looking between the both of them.


    That was something I hadn''t told them yet, but it was on my mind.


    “That''s a great idea,” Ba said as she wrote that out.


    “You''ve been tutoring a lot; how about we start a tutoring program too? I mean, you can''t tutor everyone,” Rachel said with a shrug.


    I liked that idea as well and I nodded in response as Ba wrote that down as well.


    We went through a few more ideas and after a couple of hours of writing out a semi-decent speech, we were running even shorter on time, and I needed to get dressed, Rachel insisted on giving me a makeover: while she rummaged through all our clothes to find something for me to wear, I went to take a shower, I would be lying if I said I wasn''t a little nervous about this election. Maybe I haven''t focused too much on it because I didn''t really want to think about it. Everything could change after today. If I lose, I give control over Sarah and her father. Not that Alpha Jonathan doesn''t already have control, but now his daughter will have it as well.


    I allowed the hot water to rx my body as I closed my eyes and took in the sweet scent of the soapy steam that filled the bathroom. I let the water run through my hair and massage my scalp.


    Lathering my body in soap, I rehearsed my speech mentally. I thought about all the points


    Ee I was going to make and how I was goingto persuade everyone to vote for me.
