I got asked

On the second and last night of camp, I was asked to urgently report to a teacher, sometime before 12.
I was curious, so I showered, skiped the drinks and ran with my friend to the teacher's dorm.
We weren't alone, though. A group of students were going in the same direction. They were all Student Councillors. Only a few weren't. And they were all worried that they were going to get scolded for something that they had done.
I didn't say anything because I got this feeling in my gut. And I was right.
When we reached the teacher's dorm we were made to wait outside. After about 10 mins we came in, while the SC moved out. The the teacher told us.
Told us that we were recommended by the teachers a position in the Student Council.
Ru** clapped her hands over her mouth, her eyes shining. Ja** went pink. Yu* ** looked excited and shocked. Cla**** and Ve** smiled. Only my expression remained unchanged. Because I had expected it, and I wasn't feeling keen.
The teacher asked us all on our feelings. When he asked "How many of you feel like you need to seriously think it through?", I raised up my hand. My expression was dead serious. The others looked like Christmas had came early. Was being offered a position like that really that good?
The the teacher launched into a talk on what would we have to do if we joined. What would happen to our future, since the school could recommend us to the better schools when we get older. I wished he hadn't. It would have been much easier for me to reject the offer. Everytime I think that "No, I don't want to join", I think of "SIS can recommend you to good schools in the future".
When I raised my hand, the teacher must have overlooked my reluctance as exhaustion. He said that we were all tired and should seriouly think about it. I didn't say anything.
I only wished that he had never asked at all.
