Matthew POV


It has been a week since the Akuma Castle trip. Though there were a few issues here and there, it was mostly enjoyable. I explored the premises, ate with a bunch of friends and went through a couple new experiences. There was one thing that stuck with me.

"Love will find its way to you rather soon."

What does it mean? Assuming it's true, when will it come? How could someone say something like that and not add anything more to it? How can someone even come to such a conclusion?  And most importantly..

Who was it referring to?

It also didn't help that I had a really strange dream about it that night...

The bell rang, it was break. My body moved on its own. Where I was headed? It was unknown to even myself, but it most definitely was not to the hand tennis courts. In fact I was headed in the opposite direction.

I was in the garden behind the school tennis courts. I didn't exactly know how or when I even got there, but there I was. I seemed to be waiting for something. Who or what it was, I couldn't tell. It was then that I realized the school was empty.

Just then, I heard footsteps. I turned my head in their direction. It was a girl. She definitely looked about my age, so I assumed it was safe to talk to her. Besides, we were the only ones here, we could exchange information.

The longer I looked at her, the more familiar she felt.

"Kajsa!" I called out to her, she turned to my direction. It really was her! Maybe if we talked things out, we could find out what's going on.

Her features morphed into a fearful expression. She turned the other direction and began sprinting. She was headed to the grade seven playground. I knew I could catch up to her if I started running now. That's how the chase began. 

She had almost made it half way through the playground when he tripped and went stumbling down. I called out to her as guilt washed over me. If I hadn't made her feel threatened, she never would've run.

I sprinted over and knelt down next to her, to see if she was alright. I noticed she scraped her arm on the way down. I immediately reached my hand out to help her, when she suddenly faded.

"What the-" I stared blankly at where Kajsa had been previously seated. 

"Kajsa!" I started screaming. What happened? Where did she go? Was I imagining things? Is she alright? 

It was then that I felt a light tap on my shoulder. I jolted and found myself in the dorms of Akuma Castle. 

What?

Wasn't I at school? Why am I back? I whipped my head to the left. There sat a confused looking Josh. 

"Are you okay? " he asked. Not even I was all too sure. What in the world was that. He seemed to notice that I was just as confused on the matter as he was.

"You were trembling, sweating and almost crying. It was kinda funny," he snorted as he elaborated. "You were also calling Kajsa's name. Is everything alright?" he placed his hand on my shoulder.

"He was probably having some sort of dream about her. We all know he's so darn in love!" someone snickered at the door. I lifted my head to see who it was. There stood a smirking Robbie with an unimpressed Matteo.
