Chapter 6: A New Acquaintance

*Elaina Pov*

Apparently New Years is coming up. And we as the student council body are In charge of the New Years festival. This time of year is always so stressful for me because  I normally work overtime to save up enough money to help with next years semester tuition, along with the duties of being student council president. And to add on to that, my mind and body still haven't adjusted to the 'accident' which occurred a few months ago.

*sigh*

My first kiss now taken by a complete stranger who happens to be the main singer in the world most famous boy band.

Yeah me...

"President?"

"PRESIDENT"

" Uhh?"

" you aren't dazing off in an important meeting such as this are you?"

Ayase the Vice President asked.

"Of course not"

I answer laughing a little.

" that would be absurd" I then added.

" so you agree with us?" Travas asked.

"One hundred percent "

I then answered. Plastering the surest smile I could muster up.

Wtf did I just agree to.....

Right after the meeting, me and Ayase headed straight to the café. As far as I know he has been working here way longer than I have so he his kinda like my supervisor here. Though we work here we work on different shifts so we don't always see each other. But he looks out for me and gives an helping hand whenever he can which I appreciate very much.

*He's like my guardian angel

" One expresso for table one and a coffee with an apple pie for table four"

"Coming right up"

Jackie our cook answered.

Once work at the café was finish I helped with locking up and headed straight home.

" Elaina"

" yea"

" can I walk you home?"

Ayase 's green eyes and tall black hair glimmered brightly in the moonlight. His Tall slender body hovered over me as he nervously stood there running his fingers through his hair, his eyes looking everywhere else but on me.

" Why?"

I curiously asked. Ayase as never yet offered to walk me home so I was taken aback.

" Just to go over our plans for the New Years festival....nothing more ".

His strange demeanor had me wondering, but I stop myself from overthinking stuff like I always do. What harm can a little walk do?.

"Okay, sure"

We slowly roamed the streets of my now fully asleep neighborhood. With only the few dim street light showing the way. Even though we were walking together I'm sure no one would think that was the case being that he is at least 6 feet away. I waited a few minutes to see if he would break the awkward silence between us but nothing came of it. The silence was now deafening so I decided to take the initiative.

" So about the meeting...."

I started.

" yes, what about it?"
