He's Mine

Ch. 4

When they are about to leave, the heard a sudden noise to the bushes. "I'll go check what it is." Aether spoke. Albedo nods. When Aether opened the bush, he found a bunny. An actual bunny. Albedo has never seen a bunny in this garden before. Perhaps a child has lost them. He saw a tag on the bunny which says "Lucky" in a childish handwriting. The bunny was shivering. Probably because it was scared. When Aether hold it in his warm hands, the bunny immediately stopped shaking.

"Look Albedo! Do you know whose bunny is this?" Albedo shakes his head. "Although, it is kind of familiar." When he suddenly remembers that Alice's daughter has a pet named Lucky. "Mrs. Alice's daughter has a pet named Lucky. Though, I didn't know how it got here."

Albedo suddenly receives a call. It was Timaeus. "It seems like I have to get hurry. My team found something that we did not expect to come. Go to the Principal's office then show her this bunny. I am sorry, Ae. It seems like we cannot go together. We'll go together next time, I promise." ether quickly pats Albedo's head. It was really soft. "It's alright! Although, I might have to skip this period. I hope my sister doesn't find out about it." Albedo smiles then quickly ran his hand onto Aether's soft cheeks. Aether blushes at the man who's touching his cheeks. "Alright, I'll see you later." Albedo nods.

Leaving Aether all by himself. As he walk right to the school building, he swears that the principal's office is still a far. Afraid that he might be lost, he decided to sit down near at the stairs that leads to the infirmary room. He sighs then he looks at the bunny. Completely clinging onto his palms. He plays with the bunny's head for a bit till he heard someone walking near the stairs. There he saw it. It was the boy who was staring to him back at the café.

"What are you doing here holding a bunny? y'know pets aren't allowed in this school."

"It is not my bunny. It might be the the daughter of the founders of this university." he nonchalantly spoke. "Are you perhaps skipping class? Shouldn't you be in class right now?"

"I do not like the professor there. For some reason, he's quite annoying." the man sighs.

"Well, would you like to tell me your name?" Aether asks. This man is super attractive. But his personality is quite cold. Like a grumpy cat.

"Xiao. You?" he sighs. "My name is Aether. I am new here just started today. Hehe, it's ironic that I'm skipping cause it's not usually my type to skip."

"Well, since you're new, do you recognize every part of this building?" Aether shakes his head. "I might help you. Only because I'm bored." Aether chuckles. Xiao probably doesn't have any excuse to skip class. He probably did this a lot of times, too. Aether thinks.

Xiao was left silent. The smaller boys' tiny laugh is cute. He slightly blushes. He directly pulled his face against the nearest window. "Ehem, d-do you want me to help you go to the office?" Aether tilts his head and goes "Of course, I would like to use your help." Aether carefully stands up. "Shall we go, Xiao?" Xiao nods.

Aether was really glad that someone could help him. He cannot ignore how familiar and handsome Xiao is. Yes, he did saw Xiao at the café but he feels like he knows him a long time ago. Ehh, forget about it. It's not like Xiao or knows him too.

While they were walking they heard some footsteps. Well, it never surprising if it's a teacher. They are near the classrooms anyway. "If we got caught, we'll be in big trouble!" Aether points his mouth and crosses it. Xiao nods, understanding what he just meant. As the teacher walk near them, i they had no choice but to hide in the nearest locker.

Aether was in a blushing mess. "We're too close, I'm gonna die!" Aether thinks while he didn't notice that Xiao was also blushing too. "Is this really him? His appearance are nothing new. Still adorably cute. He looks quite mature now that I look closer to him. Oh, he's blushing under my chest." (A/N: Pretend that Xiao is more taller in this fic, we already know that he is not 🙄)
