Ace and you weren’t really ‘rivals’ to say. He was top of his class, whilst you were top of the school. He basically ignored you most of the time, he didn’t have any reason to bother you over some stupid reason like you having better grades than him
In fact, he respected you
Even if when he would walk by you, and made faces to intimidated you, he would laugh it off as a joke after. He did it just for the heck of teasing you
Until he was standing beside you on the stage, glaring at you through the corner of his eyes with a glare. The two of you were the last contestants left for the spelling be, a competition for a scholarship..
Ace sure as hell wasn’t about to loose this opportunity to you
His teeth clammed down onto each other as he listened to you sound out your word. Before his voice cut you off. “A-G-E..Camouflage” he quickly spelled out. His eyes glared at you, wondering how you would react to him stealing your word
