It was Monday when K.C woke up from her 'nap'. The blonde was surprised to see that she was in her bed but still had clothes on from yesterday. Had she slept all day? The blonde decided to wash up as she took a quick shower and got dressed. The girl walked downstairs to see her two boys eating some cereal. As usual Gray read the newspaper and Caspar wolfed down his food as always.
Caspar looked up only to smile to K.C as she sat down at the table. "Morning K.C!" He smiled as she just waved back. "Want some breakfast?" the blonde offered. K.C shook her head. She wasn't hungry, in fact she didn't feel well at all. Something was bringing her down and she didn't know why. She just couldn't shake the feeling that was eating at her.
The girl suddenly felt a warm hand touch her forehead. She looked up to see Caspar looking straight at her with his sparkly blue eyes.
"You don't feel warm.." He muttered as he pulled away. "Are you feeling ok? Your not acting like yourself?"
"I'm fine." K.C gently smiled. "I was just spacing out.."
Caspar continued to frown." Are you homesick? Do you wanna check your apartment today?"
K.C thought for a minute. It has been 3 days after all. Those people should be gone by now right?
"Actually I want to check back on my dorm.. If that's okay.." K.C responded.
Caspar nodded." Yah we can go in a minute. I'll take you."
K.C nodded as they headed for the front door.
"I'm taking your car Gray!" Caspar called out as Gray just grunted in response.
Moments later the jeep was zooming downhill passing many buildings and people. After a while K.C was at the gates of the university and stepped out the now parked car.
She ran in as Caspar cautiously followed her; hands in his pockets. The girl smile to see some people walking into the building guard free. Caspar sighed in relief as they walked inside. K.C walked through the lobby ignoring how it was filled with more students and went to her apartment; Caspar not far behind her. To her dismay her apartment was a mess and looked like had been searched.
"What happened here?" Caspar scowled. "Those bastards..."
K.C frowned as she picked up a broken picture frame from the pile of glass. A picture of her mom and dad. She saw a notice on her table and walked over to pick it up.
"Read it out loud" Caspar said as K.C nodded.
" Dear attendant,
We apologize for the incident that had occurred days before. The university was informed of a potential threat harboring here in Dorm B. The mess was to be a necessary precaution in order to find what was needed. There was no threat and was a false alarm. In the name of ATLAS & COMPANY please have a nice day." K.C crumpled the paper and threw it in the trash.
"The nerve, you should have a real reason to trash my place." K.C growled.
K.C looked at Caspar who looked like he was thinking about something serious. His hands were tightly clenched into fists as he let out a frustrated sigh. She heard him word something which she tried to make out as "What are you trying to do...."
K.C looked at the table to see another letter on the table. She grabbed it and read it to herself:
Dear students,
We are here to remind you that the coming term is arriving. We wish all new students to begin preparing for the new year as college freshman. Your books and schedules will be mailed on due notice. We would like to apologize for the intrusion and will be taking lost item requests if needed. Thank you for your patronage.
Sincerely,
Administration of Kynsna University.
K.C looked at the paper and sat on her couch. She had forgotten about the term starting. All this Caspar and Atlas nonsense was getting distracting. K.C looked around making sure nothing was missing and walked back to Caspar who was spacing out by the balcony. She decided to say something to break the tension.
"So I guess I can move back." She said as she walked up to him.
"Yeah...." Caspar muttered, K.C sensing a trace of disappointment in his tone.
"What's wrong?" She asked already guessing the reason why.
"I'm sorry...." Caspar mumbled. " It's my fault..."
K.C stared at him when she noticed he was holding the broken picture frame from earlier in his hand.
"Hey! Be careful! That's broken glass!" K.C said as she gently took the frame from him, noticing blood dripping off his fingers. "Hold on, I'll get some bandages!"
K.C searched her cabinets and pulled out the kit she had bought. She walked back to Caspar and motioned him to sit on her bed. The girl examined his hand as he continued to look at her with guilty eyes.
"I'm sorry.." He continued apologizing.
"For what Caspar?" K.C calmly said as she cleaned his wound. " if your talking about the guys that trashed the place it wasn't your fault."
Caspar winced as K.C put on some disinfectant and wrapped the cuts. "It's my problem that they always follow me." Caspar disagreed. "They were probably looking for me, they must of saw you hanging out with me,"
K.C shook her head. " Then it's my fault I wasn't careful!" She was getting irritated.
"What if they hurt you next? Maybe you should just leave me alone. If we stopped talking then maybe they would just leave you alon-"
Caspar was interrupted due to K.C slapping him across the face.
"You're a idiot!" She yelled. "I don't want to stop talking to you! I don't want you to leave me alone! Your my friend Caspar! Your my friend..." K.C started tearing up. "I like you and Gray. I like talking to you and laughing at your jokes..."
Caspar touched his burning cheek and stared at the girl standing in front of him. Why did she like him? Why was she standing up for him? Like he was a saint, a good person? Most people just avoided him, but why not her? Why not her? That question rang in his head. 'Why not her?' K.C was different. He didn't know why but he somehow felt calmer around her. Just her energy affected him for the better and he liked it. He wanted to smile and hug her tight but the image of K.C with that guy stabbed him mentally. He couldn't. K.C was a taken girl, and he was surprised that she lived with him in the first place.
"Caspar? Caspar!"
Caspar snapped put of his trance. "Are you alright?" K.C asked concerned.
The boy nodded. "Yeah,I'm sorry. Thanks for snapping me out of that." He chuckled forcing on a cheeky grin.
"Sorry I slapped you.." K.C replied embarrassed. " I wasn't thinking..."
Caspar waved it off. "Eh it didn't hurt."
K.C smiled. 'The tough guy act huh?'
She thought as she giggled to herself.
The blonde suddenly felt her pocket vibrate as she grabbed it. "I'll be right back ok?" She smiled as she walked into the kitchen. K.C took out her phone to see another new message.
The message that K.C saw was the worst one yet. She felt her stomach ache as she read:
[I hope you enjoyed your surprise. There will be more to come if you don't listen. It's your choice.]
K.C literally felt her stomach tighten as she read the last three words.
[Caspar is mine]
