(THIS CHAPTER WILL BE THE FIRST COMPLETE UN-ANGST FOR A WHILE. This is a part of my series, I just wanted to give Shino and Arti a break. Cuz i can promise the next few chapters are none-stop heartbreak. So, this is the calm before the storm)
Artemis was on his last day of suspension. He wouldn't admit it to anyone but being suspended wasn't so bad, obviously he was aware of the punishment and what he had done wrong. But it was a nice break from his chaotic life, each day he's wait for RikKu and Shino outside of Monarch and walk them back to the dorm, he'd even carry RikKu's backpack for her.
He'd continue going to cafe club, that wasn't part of his suspension. He hated lying, he wasn't a natural liar. It felt wrong to lie, so he was honest about how he was suspended eventually. However, he told everyone he was suspended for being caught, the only person who knew about Artemis's involvement in the prison break was Shino.
RikKu was super supportive, which is the opinion that mattered most to Arti. Artemis had lied to RikKu twice about the situation already and didn't know how she'd react to half the truth. However, she was understanding. She knew Artemis would be terrified of getting in trouble and wouldn't really want to announce it, so she wasn't mad at him for lying. I mean, what good would getting angry do? He had been punished enough.
Arti adored RikKu, she was the little sister he never had. Finally someone who he was older then but there was no sense of duty to take care of her, he didn't feel like he was obligated to be around her. They got on, they both understood each other's anxiety and RikKu appreciated how supportive he was over her transition. RikKu felt safe around him
Artemis had a normal day. Just normal, every event happened in prediction and it was nice. He felt calm and happy, he got to watch a movie with his roommates. RikKu ordered Pizza, making sure to not add pepperoni since the beginning of the year. Artemis couldn't really handle spice, he found it super embarrassing too. Shino found pepperoni completely unspicy, the strongest thing Artemis could handle was some salt and pepper.
Artemis was back in school tomorrow which he was excited for, he could finally see his friends and talk to people and catch up on missing work.
-Artemis's POV-
I couldn't sleep, i was too excited to go back to school. I know a lot of people have school but personally it was something i've always wanted and finally had.
I got bored just staring at my ceiling trying to force my eyes closed, for the past 3 days all i had done was design and sleep. It was great sure, but i had slept so much to the point were i just couldn't sleep anymore.
I think that's the first time in my life were i had too much sleep.
So what could put you to sleep other then focusing on things that only appear when you sleep? And no, i had already tried counting sheep. If anything it made me more awake.
I sat outside, RikKu had told me about the telescope the first day i met her. When it got dark she taught me how to use it, and i was obsessed! It was so pretty, i had never seen the sky in such detail.
And now it was something i loved to do. Whenever it got dark just to sit on our balcony and play with the telescope. Sure i had my own balcony but the telescope was on the second floor and I didn't want to have to carry it to my room so i just came downstairs careful not to wake up my roommates and best friends.
I looked into the telescope, the sky seemed to centre its attention on me as each star twinkled.
I looked around at the cluster of stars in the sky, i knew nothing about them, other then the fact that they were completely gorgeous. "RikKu has a dress that looks like that pattern!" I whispered to myself, remembering the little starry dress RikKu had bought for herself at a market with Shizu. "Those few look like Shino's eyes" I continued, smiling at the familiarity.
